《The Regent Does Not Give Up》


 C1

    Yun Ruoleng frowned as he heard the sound of the biting cold whip slashing the air. His consciousness gradually became clear and only felt a bone-piercing pain in his body. Where was she? How could there be the sound of a whip?


    "Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"


    A fierce whipping sound hit Yun Ruoleng''s body, causing her to gasp for breath, she suddenly opened her eyes, and what she saw was no longer the magnificent exhibition hall, but ¡­ A dilapidated little grass hut?


    There was a woman with a whip in front of her. She wore ancient clothing and her appearance was average. However, the ruthlessness in her eyes could be clearly seen. Behind the woman stood a group of burly looking women dressed in ancient clothing.


    Before she could react, the whip-wielding woman laughed coldly: "Yun Ruoleng, why aren''t you resisting anymore? Is it comfortable for us to serve you? "


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, and quickly reacted ¨C could it be that she had teleported into another world? Furthermore, she didn''t have any good intentions, so she didn''t want to die the moment she arrived!


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, the whip lady''s attitude became even more arrogant, and followed up with another whip: "You lowly bones, how can you compare to our Young Miss? "Trash!"


    "Hiss ¡ª ¡ª" Yun Ruoleng bit his lower lip. When had she ever suffered like this in modern times? This body was simply too thin. Judging from the bloodstains on his clothes, it was obvious that the original owner was in even more pain. But the most important thing right now was ¡ª how was she going to survive? Looking at that whip wielding girl''s imposing manner, she was not giving up until she was beaten to death!


    Yun Ruoleng probed: "Aren''t you afraid of my revenge if you guys act like this?"


    The whip-wielding girl laughed without hesitation: "Relying on you? Even though you are a Seventh Miss of the Yun Palace, you can''t even compare to us servants, so how are you going to take revenge on me? You must know that we have the backing of young miss! "


    Yun Ruoleng did not speak, the woman holding the whip thought that she was afraid, and became even more pleased. She then ordered the group of strong and burly women behind her: "Go, serve Seventh Miss well!"


    The group of people immediately pounced at Yun Ruoleng, punching and kicking her one by one. With the addition of his new injury and old ailment, Yun Ruoleng was in so much pain that he felt like he was going to go all out. A deep impression was left on his lower lip. "Stop!"


    Judging from that person''s words, he should be a servant. Yun Palace Seventh Miss s ¡­ She seemed to be an unfavoured character. Just what kind of enmity did that young miss have with her to be so malicious? If this continued, she would be beaten to death!


    The whip-wielding girl raised her hand to signal them to retreat: "Hey, our Seventh Miss still has something to say?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s aura was weak, his body should have been oppressed for a long time, he did not even have the strength to lift his hand. She gasped for breath and asked, "What do you want? If I die here, you guys won''t be able to explain yourself, right? "


    Although he said it in an intermittent manner, it sounded like it was filled with an inexplicable sense of deterrence. The whip-wielding girl panicked for a moment, but then composed herself and said: "Who would know? Seventh Miss went out to play and accidentally died, who would investigate deeply? "


    Just as he finished speaking, a clear and gentle voice came from the door. It was firm and firm. "Tangerine, do you take the Residence of Yun as your own home?"


    Tangerine was stunned for a moment. When she saw who it was, she quickly kneeled down and kowtowed. "This servant doesn''t dare!"


    Yun Ruoleng rested his head against the wall and struggled to open his eyes wide, only then did he clearly see the owner of the voice ¡ª ¡ª It was actually a woman?

 C2

    The woman wore green clothes, and her figure was slender and delicate. Her long hair that was like a waterfall was fixed in place with a delicate hairpin, and the headdress on her head was diverse and extremely elegant.


    Her green dress was simple and generous, and her expression was calm and gentle. She was just like a beauty who had walked out of an ancient painting. It was truly breathtaking!


    The green robed lady noticed the bruises all over her body. She didn''t bother to teach Tangerine a lesson and spoke with a gloomy face, "You guys wait outside the door. You are not allowed to enter without my order!"


    Seeing that the few fierce maids had left, Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief. It didn''t matter if this girl was good or bad. This was enough to be considered a favor. Unexpectedly, the woman started crying, "Leng Er, how did you become like this? Who brought you here? "


    What a familiar feeling... Could it be that she had a good relationship with the original owner? Yun Ruoleng''s heart warmed. Unfortunately, if she didn''t have enough strength to speak, she could only quietly listen to her cry. Yun Qingyao saw that his sister could no longer speak and cried even more bitterly, "It''s all my fault that I didn''t protect you well. "It''s not like you can threaten the position of the Regent''s Consort. Why are they still so ruthless ¡­"


    Yun Qingyao restrained his weeping. Seeing that her injuries were really serious, he was not afraid of the blood dirtying her clothes. He supported her and said, "Let''s go, big sister will help you find a good husband now!"


    Yun Ruoleng wanted to nod his head and say thank you, but his mind suddenly became dizzy and he felt the sky spin and he fainted.


    When he woke up again, Yun Ruoleng felt that his throat was about to burn frighteningly. "Water..."


    A lady in maid clothing rushed over and poured a cup of water, carefully helped Yun Ruoleng up, and fed her some water: "Miss, is there anything else that feels uncomfortable?"


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the girl, and suddenly asked: "What''s your name?"


    The young maid was stunned, and started crying, "Young miss, could it be that you have been beaten stupid by them? Young mistress doesn''t know this servant anymore? Your servant is Peach Blossom! Miss ¡­ "Sob, sob, sob ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng was a little confused by her crying, but he knew that she was called Peach Blossom. She quickly comforted him, "Peach Blossom, don''t cry. I''m just a little muddle-headed, I''m not stupid. "


    Only then did Peach Blossom stop crying. Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief and asked: "There are a lot of things that I only have a vague impression of. Peach Blossom, can you tell me more about it?"


    Although the little girl could not react in time, she still could not disobey her master''s request and tell him about the original owner''s ancestry and the news of the continent.


    It turned out that the original owner was here, an ancient country called the Heavenly Enlightenment Kingdom. He was the Seventh Miss of Shang Shu Yun Manor. As a concubine, and his mother had died a long time ago, the green clothed lady that rescued her was her sister Yun Qingyao.


    Although he was born from the same mother, Yun Qingyao received a different treatment due to her unique Inherent Skill and was passed on to the First Madam.


    Legend has it that the big miss who bullied her was First Madam''s own daughter, Yun Yueyu. Because the original owner had a good face, she disliked the original owner everywhere.


    Peach Blossom said angrily, "That young miss is too headstrong and headstrong. It''s not like Miss will compete for the position of the Regent''s Consort with her. Why would she still treat you like this?"


    Yun Ruoleng smiled lightly: "Peach Blossom, I thank you for being angry at me. But you can''t speak carelessly. If someone hears it, I can''t even protect myself, much less you. "

 C3

    It was only then that Peach Blossom realized that something was amiss. She nodded and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Miss!"


    Why did the young lady seem different this time? Peach Blossom couldn''t figure out what had changed, but how did the previous young miss know about it?


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, "The Regent that you mentioned, who exactly is he?"


    This was the question that puzzled her the entire time. She had heard of this name from Yun Qingyao''s mouth, so what kind of person was it?


    Speaking of the Regent, Peach Blossom''s eyes were filled with worship, "The Regent is a legend of the Heaven''s Enlightenment. He is the most beloved son of the Emperor, but he was unwilling to become Emperor. He had led the army to destroy the Zhu Li rebellion at the age of eleven. It was just that for some reason, the Supreme Emperor had already arranged a marriage between the regent and the person with the purest Shaman Energy in the Residence of Yun. As of now, it was unclear who it was. "Eldest Miss and Third Miss both have power ¡­"


    Power? Yun Ruoleng said indifferently: "This power is very hard to come by."


    Peach Blossom quickly nodded her head, "That would be the one in a thousand!"


    Yun Ruoleng leaned on the side of the bed and gasped for air: "Alright, you can leave now."


    After Peach Blossom left, Yun Ruoleng rubbed his glabella and started to have a headache. How could she, a famous painter of the twenty-first century, have fallen unconscious at an international exhibition and even landed in this damned place? The original owner was definitely not being pampered. It was still a question whether she could survive or not!


    She reached out her hand to stroke her hair, only to discover a necklace around her neck ¡ª a necklace? Wasn''t this the spiritual object that she inherited from her ancestors in the modern world? Why did it suddenly appear on her neck? She took a closer look. The black stone was inconspicuous and looked like a piece of trash that had been randomly dug out from a rubbish dump.


    But only Yun Ruoleng knew ¡ª This was what the necklace looked like before it was opened! Since the Yun Family was the owner of this necklace, Yun Ruoleng could naturally use blood to undo the seal easily. But now was not the time, Yun Ruoleng smiled, it would be better to not be discovered!


    What she did not see was that there was a flash of shadow on the peach tree outside the house.


    Regent¡¯s Mansion ¡ª


    "Has anything happened in the Residence of Yun?" A deep and deep voice rang out.


    The man leaned against the imperial concubine''s bed. His expression was lazy and casual, but somehow, there was a chill in the air. Her long, black hair fell down, and her long, narrow, phoenix eyes were filled with a fierce look. He had a high nose bridge and thin lips that slightly curved upwards. He was even more beautiful than a woman, and he didn''t seem feminine at all. He was aggressive. The cold smile on her lips was charming yet cold. She was so beautiful that it could captivate all the women in the world.


    "Mistress, there was no big commotion, but I saw the young miss of the Yun Palace sending people to torture that Seventh Miss ¡­" An Ying was a little hesitant, "It seems it''s also because of the engagement."


    Jun Qingshang raised his brows, "Then how is the Seventh Miss related to the engagement?"


    An Ying frowned: "I''m not too sure either, but that Seventh Miss doesn''t seem to be as stupid as the rumors claimed ¡­"


    Jun Qingshang laughed lightly, but no one could feel any joy in his words. "An Ying, it seems that you are rather free."


    An Ying was startled, then immediately reacted, kneeling down and said: "I do not dare."


    He was indeed surprised, why would his master listen to such gossip?


    Yun Ruoleng''s injuries were serious, the Peach Blossom who went to ask the supervisor for help could not get any medicine, so she could only drag it out day after day.

 C4

    However, what made Yun Ruoleng curious was that although he had not taken any medicine, his condition did not decrease. Instead, he felt like ¡­ Looks better and better?


    It was a fantasy, but in any case, it was a good thing. Peach Blossom was also very surprised, but her surprise turned into joy. "Miss, are you really getting healthier?"


    Towards her happiness, Yun Ruoleng felt that it was normal for her to be happy and sick, but she didn''t expect Peach Blossom to suddenly say: "Wounds don''t need medicine to heal, isn''t that a power that only the purest witch can have? Didn''t Miss have no magic power? "Great!"


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, "Pure Shaman Body? How do you know? Could I have seen wrongly - didn''t they say that I don''t have any magic power? "


    Peach Blossom shook her head and said seriously, "Miss, Peach Blossom is definitely not seeing things wrong. The Peach Blossom Ancestor had a voodoo power bloodline, but it had been lost, which was why it had become a slave. However, Peach Blossom would never throw away her knowledge of magic power!


    Could it be true? Otherwise, how could he explain this sudden recovery? However, Yun Ruoleng was not happy, and said with a cold expression: "Peach Blossom, remember, the reason why my injuries healed is because I found the medicine in the garden, it is definitely not a pure witch body. This must not be spread out, or I''m afraid both of us will die! "


    Peach Blossom immediately became dumbfounded. "Young miss... Why is that? Isn''t this a heavenly joyous occasion? Why would Miss still need to hide it? " If the old master knew about this, the young miss would not be bullied!


    Yun Ruoleng could naturally guess what the little girl was thinking, it was just too simple. She sighed, "Peach Blossom, the trees are full of wind."


    Hearing her blushing voice before, the so called young miss Yun Yueyu was worried that she would threaten her position as the Regent''s Consort. It was impossible from the beginning, but if he knew that she had a pure witch body, he would not be getting simple treatment, but would instead be relentlessly pursuing her! She didn''t want to be the regent''s consort, but to be alive was the only thing she believed in!


    Although Peach Blossom was a little confused, she would be a fool if she said something like this. "Yes, Miss."


    Suddenly, a group of evil nanny s aggressively entered the courtyard. Tao Hong hurriedly stopped him: "This is Seventh Miss''s courtyard... "What do you want?"


    The leading old nanny scoffed coldly, and spoke to Yun Ruoleng with an overbearing attitude: "Yo, Seventh Miss is such a grand scene!"


    Yun Ruoleng coldly glanced at her: "If you have something to say, quickly say it."


    Towards this kind of useless idiot, Yun Ruoleng didn''t want to get entangled with him at all.


    The old nanny raised his chin and looked at Yun Ruoleng with his nose: "Seventh Miss sure has guts.


    "This lady wants to see who has the guts?" Yun Ruoleng looked at her in ridicule, "nanny, you are also an old servant of the Yun Palace. "First, point your nose at your master and you should hit him. Second, be disrespectful to your master and kill him!"


    Every word was loud and clear!


    Although she didn''t want to get entangled with these idiots, it didn''t mean that she would always tolerate them! Whether it was in the modern world or today, Yun Ruoleng was not a person to be easily bullied!


    The old nanny was stunned by his words. He became angry out of shame and said, "If you refuse a toast, you will be punished. I ¡­"


    "nanny wants to hit me?" Yun Ruoleng raised the corner of his mouth, seeing her trembling in anger, he was in a good mood, "I guess Master wants to call me over? If the Old Master sees that I am covered in wounds, wouldn''t I lose face as well? "

 C5

    It was only natural that Minister Yun would call her.


    Yun Ruoleng had a feeling that if Yun Qingyao saved him, the legendary young miss would definitely not let this go. As for the latter step, it was just a step at a time.


    The old nanny thought for a while, and realised what she said was not false ¡ª she gritted her teeth and said hatefully, "Just you wait!"


    Yun Ruoleng shrugged his shoulders: "I am always waiting for nanny''s presence."


    The old nanny was angered to the point of fainting, but he had nothing to say either. He could only bring Yun Ruoleng to the Minister¡¯s Mansion Hall, and gloatingly said: "I''m afraid that it won''t be that easy for you to come out after you go in!"


    Yun Ruoleng indifferently swept his gaze across her without saying a word. The reason why he confronted the old nanny was not only because of the humiliation, but also because Peach Blossom had secretly told her to be careful when they came to visit. This was enough to show that the old nanny was not looking for trouble for the first time. Even if it was to avenge the original Yun Ruoleng, it was only natural.


    She took a deep breath, Peach Blossom anxiously watching her back as she entered. The old master had always disliked the young mistress, so what should he do now... The scene of Yun Ruoleng scolding the old nanny flashed across her mind. She could not help but laugh, why does the young miss feel that she has changed so much?


    Such a lady shouldn''t be bullied, right?


    As Yun Ruoleng stepped into the Main Hall, he saw a young girl dressed in purple and a middle-aged man sitting in the Main Hall. The purple-clothed girl was delicate and beautiful, but the arrogance in her eyes caused people to not have a good impression of her. This should be the legendary young miss Yun Yueyu who was mercilessly and mercilessly disregarding brotherly relations with the original owner.


    At a glance, the middle-aged man could tell that his face was full of hypocrisy. It was most likely Minister Yun.


    Yun Ruoleng stepped forward and greeted respectfully: "Leng Er greets father."


    Minister Yun forced himself to raise his eyes as Yun Yueyu cast a glance at her. Both of them did not say anything nor did they let her get up.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly in his heart, how could this Minister Yun be a good person? Right now, he probably wanted to help his beloved daughter vent her anger right? The only pity was that the original owner, who was also his daughter, was treated so differently!


    She feigned weakness as her body shrank and staggered before falling to the ground. "Ahhh!"


    Yun Yueyu said disdainfully: "When did little sister become so weak? Or ¡­ Have you forgotten the rules of Residence of Yun? "


    "There''s no trace of your sister at all!" Minister Yun frowned.


    "Leng Er... Leng Er didn''t do it on purpose. " Yun Ruoleng said with a terrified expression, "Leng Er was injured a few days ago and didn''t have enough nutrition, which was why his blood was used up in the void... Leng Er did not mean to anger Big Sis and Daddy! "


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s cowering face, Minister Yun coughed twice. He knew that it would be too unreasonable to continue speaking soft words. "Forget it, your sister and I have something else to say to you."


    Yun Yueyu saw that the opportunity had come, and the arrogance she had just now was completely swept away, and replacing it was a delicate and touching one, "Little sister, big sister thinks that she has not misjudged you at all, why are you trying to frame me?"


    He didn''t take a wrong look? Difficult to frame? Yun Ruoleng held back his laughter, and said with fear: "Elder sister, where did you come from? "I ¡­"


    "Then why did you steal my hairpin?" If you like it, you can have it, but why do you do such a sneaky dirty thing! " Yun Yueyu said with a pained expression, "I was aware that you are young and it''s your first offense, so I didn''t report it to father. "Who knew that you would be so greedy. Relying on my third sister''s pity for you, you played tricks on her to frame me!"

 C6

    After hearing the speech, Yun Yueyu looked at his sorrowful expression.


    As expected, Duke Yun''s expression changed and he slammed the table: "Yun Ruoleng, you''re so heartless! This is your own sister! "


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes immediately filled with tears, "Father, how could I dare to do such a thing? Elder sister Jin Qiuyu, I am only a lowly daughter, how would I dare to frame elder sister? "


    Seeing her so moved, Minister Yun''s momentum weakened a little. "Then why did you steal your sister''s hairpin?"


    Before he came, Yun Ruoleng had already secretly felt that it would not be so easy going. He used the name of the gossips to understand the past of the original mother, Lady Hua and Minister Yun. Now it seemed that it was time to put them to use, didn''t it?


    Yun Ruoleng was immediately stunned. Her tears fell like a string of pearls as she cried like tears, "Father, how can Leng Er steal big sister''s jade? Leng Er''s personal maid, Peach Blossom can prove it! Leng Er never went out in the courtyard every day, so how could he have the time to sneak a hairpin? Ever since I was young, my mother has told me that as a person, one must be kind, and must not be the villain who frames others, so how could I possibly go against the teachings my mother gave me before I died? "


    Hmph, competing in acting with her? Although her main occupation was painting, she was the president of the school''s drama club in college. Although their acting skills weren''t good enough to make a movie, it was enough to make a show of them!


    The light in Minister Yun''s eyes dimmed. Madam Hua had thought about it from the shadows, and turned to Yun Yueyu: "Yu''er, do you have any evidence regarding the hairpin incident?"


    Yun Yueyu was shocked, and stuttered: "I ¡­ "I ¡­"


    Crap, she never thought that that idiot Yun Ruoleng would actually counterattack! Relying on her father''s love, she had played this kind of trick multiple times. It was because Yun Ruoleng was weak and easily bullied, to the point where she had never failed before. Of course, she wouldn''t prepare any evidence.


    Seeing that she was stuttering and unable to speak, Minister Yun became angry and said, "You want to tell me without evidence?"


    Seeing Minister Yun''s rage, Yun Ruoleng laughed so hard that his heart was about to explode. However, he still pitifully raised his head: "Big sister, Leng Er thinks he is innocent and definitely won''t steal anything from you or frame you! Although Leng Er had lost his mother and was left alone in the Yun Palace, he could not compare to his elder sister''s pampered happiness. But Leng Er will definitely not do something that discards his own identity, I hope big sister will not wrongly accuse Leng Er in the future! "


    "You ¡­" Yun Yueyu clenched her teeth, there was no proof, and the way Minister Yun looked at her was already fierce, if she continued to explain, the situation would become worse, "Then ¡­ "Big Sis was wrong to blame you ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng watched the sudden change in Minister Yun''s expression, and felt it was extremely funny. Just a moment ago, when he was still acting like a kind father, did Yun Yueyu make him lose face and lose control of himself just like that? Seems like he was only good to Yun Yueyu!


    Minister Yun cleared his throat, "Mm ¡­ "Then let''s drop this matter."


    Give up? Yun Ruoleng wanted to laugh. If she made a mistake, then it would look like she wanted to kill someone. If Yun Yueyu made a mistake, then she would let it go? Luckily she was only a teleporter, if it was Yun Ruoleng himself, how sad would it be?


    But now, she didn''t ask for much. It was enough for her to get rid of the charges.

 C7

    As for Yun Yueyu and this Minister Yun ¡­ Yun Ruoleng''s mouth curved into a barely noticeable smile. They had plenty of time to waste!


    "Yes, Father." She bowed her head in mock obedience.


    "Then you can go down first." Seeing that she did recognize him as someone decent, Minister Yun''s tone became a bit softer. However, his bias was still very obvious, "In the future, don''t cause any more trouble."


    Yun Ruoleng really wanted to laugh, but he resisted the urge, "Yes."


    What was she up to? The target was the wrong person, right? Yun Ruoleng gracefully turned around to leave, leaving only her elegant back behind. Unknowingly, Yun Yueyu felt a sense of crisis in his heart. That little hoof, why does it feel like ¡­ More and more beautiful? The old Yun Ruoleng, how could he dare to resist? How could he be so overbearing, how could it be possible ¡­ So eye-catching?


    With his thoughts interrupted, Minister Yun''s face was filled with disappointment. "Yu''er, why do you insist on going against her? I will make it clear to Yao''er that the position of regent''s consort is yours if nothing goes wrong! Why do you have to cause all this trouble? "


    Yun Yueyu turned his head unhappily, "Father, she''s always like this. After all, bullying her doesn''t have any other consequence, can''t you just bully her like a servant? "


    Minister Yun sighed, "How can I not know your thoughts? That Yun Ruoleng was born with a beautiful appearance. It''s true that Daddy will turn a blind eye to how you usually treat her. However, this is the crux of the marriage contract. What if something bad happens? What about your reputation as a girl? Who dares to ask for you? "


    "..." Your daughter understands. " Yun Yueyu''s brows instantly gained some clarity. "Father, aren''t we going to ¡ª"


    Yun Shang Shu was startled, he quickly guessed what Yun Yueyu was talking about, and nodded his head: "Yu''er can''t wait anymore? Your attire is just right, we will go to the Regent¡¯s Mansion now! "


    Regent¡¯s Mansion ¡ª


    Jun Qingshang looked down with half-closed phoenix eyes, her eyebrows showing no emotion in her eyes. Minister Yun hurried to introduce her. "This is my daughter, Yun Yueyu. Yu''er, have you not seen the Regent? "


    Yun Yueyu nodded with a bashful and gentle look on her face, and then turned slightly blissful: "This little girl, Yu''er, greets Your Highness, Regent."


    Yu''er, this really made one daydream. Yun Yueyu believed that her attire and makeup were painstaking work on it today. Coupled with her beauty, no man would be able to resist her. The purple-dressed girl was still dancing with a coquettish smile on her charming face, looking at the man on the stage with flirtatious and flirtatious eyes.


    Only, it didn''t seem to be very effective in front of Jun Qingshang. This young miss doesn''t seem to be the same as the information that An Ying received ¡­ The corners of his lips curled up into a smile. "Oh, Missy Yun."


    Seeing him smile slightly, Yun Yueyu was almost stunned by his charm. She only thought he was happy and immediately replied shyly: Your Highness, just call me little girl Yu''er.


    Women were indeed all the same. He calmly looked at Minister Yun, "Then does Minister Yun have something to discuss with me?"


    "Ah ¡­" Minister Yun didn''t expect the regent to be so unromantic and could only vaguely reply, "Yes ¡­" "Yes, there is ¡­"


    The smile in Jun Qingshang''s eyes became more and more dangerous. "You have something important to discuss with your daughter?"

 C8

    Cold sweat covered Yun Shang Shu''s forehead, he did not expect Yun Yueyu to suddenly say: "Your Highness, you do not know, father brought Yu''er here to discuss Your Highness''s ¡­ Marriage ¡­ "


    The young girl raised her head, her cheeks slightly shy and red. She looked beautiful, but gave off a vulgar feeling.


    Jun Qingshang swept his severe and fierce gaze across Yun Yueyu. "When did this duke call you here to discuss about some major marriage?"


    Beautiful was fine, but there were countless beautiful women who wanted to climb into his bed. She was not even one of the best and was so stupid. What right did she have to marry him?


    Yun Yueyu was frightened, how could she have known that although the Regent was a peerless beauty, he did not care for the fairer sex. His little face was deathly pale, and there were still some injuries in his eyes as he said without giving up, "Your Highness, Yu''er ¡­"


    Jun Qingshang ignored her, and looked at Minister Yun with ridicule: "Master Shang Shu, you taught such a good daughter to me."


    The Lord Regent hated women who pestered him the most. Minister Yun was already scared stiff. "Your Highness, this ¡­"


    "An Ying, send our guest off." Jun Qingshang flapped his sleeves and sat on the armchair, no longer paying any attention to the two. Seeing that he had no other choice and was forcefully dragged, Yun Yueyu could only follow Minister Yun and leave.


    Are all the women of the Residence of Yun like this? Jun Qingshang found it funny. Back then, the Grand Emperor saw that there was an abnormality in the sky, and when the Phoenix bird descended above the Residence of Yun, the Residence of Yun had coincidentally given birth to two witches. Two years later, the Phoenix descended upon the Residence of Yun once more. Everyone looked forward to the birth of the baby girl, but ¡­ She didn''t even have the slightest bit of power!


    The person who was ridiculed by the people of the world for not possessing any power was the Yun Palace''s Seventh Miss, Yun Ruoleng.


    Because of this phoenix''s good omen, the Supreme Emperor ordered for his most outstanding and highly regarded son to be engaged to the Yun Mansion, and marry the one with the purest Shaman Energy out of the three women.


    If those three women were like that, Jun Qingshang felt that he would have to go against the will of the Supreme Emperor.


    It''s just that I accidentally heard about that Seventh Miss last time, what does it look like? Jun Qingshang was suddenly curious.


    Primordial Profound Ark ¡ª ¡ª


    The name "Ao Xue Yuan" sounded extremely grand. If Yun Ruoleng wasn''t living in there, he would really think that this was a good place. At the very most, it was just an extremely remote and small garden in Minister¡¯s Mansion. With overgrown weeds, no one had ever cut and cleaned it before.


    "Come, come, come, Peach Blossom, there''s a shelf here for those silk melons!" Yun Ruoleng hurriedly called out to Peach Blossom.


    That''s right, there was a clear difference in treatment in the kitchen. Since he always ate those damn things, Yun Ruoleng always felt that he would die soon. There were no vegetables, but the vegetables and seeds were picked at random in the garden. Plus, the Proud Snow Garden was too rundown and desolate, so no one else would come here. It was a good place to plant vegetables and plants.


    Peach Blossom was now filled with admiration towards her. She eagerly ran over and said, "Alright!"


    The two of them squatted down to take care of it. Peach Blossom smiled and said, "Wait until these seeds are planted properly, then we won''t have to worry about starvation!"


    Even if he didn''t starve, was this an extravagant hope?


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly felt a bit sad. She couldn''t help but reach out to touch her head, "Don''t worry, with me here in the future, you won''t suffer from any hunger. Your young mistress has brought you food that tastes good, spicy and spicy! "

 C9

    Peach Blossom''s eyes widened. "Sure, sure, sure. But Peach Blossom doesn''t like spicy drinks ¡­"


    "Then I''ll bring you to drink something sweet." Yun Ruoleng proudly waved the spade, "In short, follow the young miss and you will have meat to eat!"


    Very soon, most of the vegetables and plants were ready. The garden was in the back, hidden from view by the general public. Other than the vegetables, Yun Ruoleng also grew some flowers and plants, making her look extremely beautiful.


    Suddenly, Yun Ruoleng stopped what he was doing. "That''s right, Peach Blossom, continue to tell me about Shaman Power. In the Yun Mansion and the Heavenly Enlightenment Kingdom, who else has Shaman Energy? And why did the Grand Emperor insist on the Regent contracting with the Yun Mansion? "


    Peach Blossom was a bit depressed, "Miss, you might not know this, but you should also be a part of the engagement. When the Grand Emperor saw the good omen of the phoenix bird, two witches were born in succession in the Residence of Yun ¡ª where two witches were held. The Heavenly Enlightenment Kingdom only had twenty-five people in total, so they made the marriage agreement. And then the Phoenix came again, just as young miss was born. "


    "Me?" Yun Ruoleng was enlightened, "That is to say, I am also someone who was born in a phoenix''s dream, but I do not have any Shaman Energy, so everyone is disappointed?"


    "That''s right." Peach Blossom couldn''t help but sigh, "Those two witches are the eldest miss and the third miss." Third Miss Wu Li is purer than Eldest Miss, but Eldest Miss is my master''s betrothed. "


    Third Miss ¡­ Was that the green-clothed girl who had saved him the last time? Yun Ruoleng seemed to be deep in thought.


    "About that, it''s still up to His Highness the Regent to decide." Peach Blush blushed. "Besides, if Your Highness doesn''t like it, then no matter if it''s the emperor or the emperor, it''s useless."


    Yun Ruoleng shifted his gaze onto her face, and suddenly laughed sinisterly. "Could it be that the Red Luan planet has moved?"


    Peach Blossom quickly said: "Where is it, which woman in Tian Qi Kingdom doesn''t like Your Highness? Peach red is only admiration. "


    No longer teasing her, Yun Ruoleng suddenly looked at Peach Blossom seriously: "Peach Blossom, we still have a very important problem to solve."


    Peach Blossom wondered, "What problem?"


    "When these fruits are ripe, we will probably starve to death." Yun Ruoleng said in a serious tone, "So, other than the pig feed that the kitchen sent over, do we have anything else to eat?"


    Peach Red was stunned for two seconds before she shook her head and said, "No."


    Yun Ruoleng said with a face full of helplessness, "If that''s the case, then we can''t just sit there and wait for death. You just have to guard this garden well, while I go out and do some valuable things! "


    "Miss, how can this be!" Peach Red said anxiously, "If you encounter any danger outside ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng laughed inside, did she think of him as a young miss who was raised in a room without anyone knowing? She waved her hand. "There''s no need to say anymore, you just have to guard the garden well and trust your young miss!"


    However, Yun Ruoleng realized that it was a very difficult thing to become something.


    It wasn''t because he couldn''t get out, but because ¡­ There was nothing that could be pawned at all! If only there was something of value! Yun Ruoleng fell onto the bed in despair.


    It really is ¡­ A single cent was enough to kill a hero!


    Yun Ruoleng unintentionally glanced at the necklace on his neck ¡ª ¡ª Forget it.

 C10

    Putting aside the fact that it was passed down from the ancestors, this necklace wouldn''t sell for a good price even if it was in the dark, let alone if it was extremely useful.


    Hey, a red bracelet? Yun Ruoleng picked it up as if she had discovered a new world, but unexpectedly Peach Blossom anxiously ran over: "Miss, you want to pawn this bracelet? Absolutely not! "Miss!"


    Why was this little girl so well-informed? Yun Ruoleng frowned, "Why?"


    Tears slowly welled up in her eyes. "Miss, you actually don''t remember? This is obviously Aunt Hua''s bracelet. Miss said that she would keep it for her entire life! "


    Lady Hua ¡­ Forget it, let''s just leave the original owner''s thoughts. After all, she was his mother. Besides, the quality of this bracelet really isn''t that good. It might not be able to sell for much. Yun Ruoleng said softly: "I was just teasing you, I won''t do it."


    If not for this, the search would have been a bit difficult. Finally I found something of value ¡ª a hairpin with silver on it, and a suit of blue. It was fine work, but now it had to be pawned. Yun Ruoleng wrapped the black cloth around himself and changed into a simple set of gray clothes: "Peach Blossom, how about this?"


    The young girl stood there gracefully. Her rough grey dress couldn''t conceal her charming and moving appearance, and it instead revealed that her skin was even more so sparkling white. Her long hair was smooth like a waterfall, perpendicular to her waist; her skin was creamy, her lips were a little red, her appearance was delicate and attractive; her eyes, however, were soft and alluring; her pupils faintly revealed a sense of stubbornness; her nose was pointed, and her lips were tender and lustrous ¨C such a simple beauty!


    She repeatedly nodded her head, "Young miss ¡­ The young mistress is so beautiful! "


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t know whether to laugh or cry. Her grey clothes were similar to a dignified little beggar on the streets, but the original owner was actually able to wear this kind of beautiful and moving clothes, no wonder Yun Yueyu was always targeting her!


    "Forget it, let''s just leave it at that." She combed her hair and adorned it with her makeup. She was truly a poor yet handsome youth. She picked up her backpack and said, "You stay here and guard the garden properly, I''m going out."


    Peach Red did not finish her sentence, but she was surprised by Yun Ruoleng''s outfit. It was so shallow, yet her young miss had actually changed to ¡­ So handsome? She shook her head and could only say, "Then Miss, be careful. Don''t let anyone find out!"


    It''s not a problem to be careful. The problem is... How do I get out?


    Facing the wall of the Residence of Yun, she did not have the ability to climb over the wall. But how was it possible to leave through the door? Unless ¡ª Someone helped?


    Just as he was hesitating, a gentle voice suddenly came from behind him, "You are... Seventh sister? "


    Yun Ruoleng quickly turned his head back. Could it be that someone had recognized her? That shouldn''t be! She looked carefully, and it was actually the green clothed female, Yun Qingyao, from that day? Although she didn''t have any special feelings for Yun Qingyao, Yun Qingyao had still saved her life before. She nodded politely. "Three ¡­ "Third sister."


    Yun Qingyao looked around to see that there was no one around, and then retracted the servant girl behind him, and asked: "Seventh Sister, are you going out? "Where to?"


    Seeing that her expression was not one of feigned concern, Yun Ruoleng could not help but have a good impression of her, as he let his guard down and said: "I ¡­ I''ll go out and do something. Also, Third Sister can just call me Leng Er, there''s no need to go through so much trouble. "


    Yun Qingyao''s gaze slowly softened. "Follow Third Sis, Third Sis will take you out."

 C11

    Yun Ruo Leng was a little dazed and came to a sudden realization. Stepping into her attire, disguised as a servant, she shouldn''t be seen through by others. However, Yun Qingyao should have a good relationship with the original owner, so she could recognize her at a glance. "In this Residence of Yun, only Yun Qingyao would be willing to give her face.


    She obediently followed Yun Qingyao all the way to the main entrance of the Yun Palace. Yun Qingyao thought for a moment, then took out a jade tablet from his sleeve: "Forget it, what you need to do, Third Sister will definitely be a burden too, so I might as well help you take care of the aftermath. "This is the Residence of Yun''s jade token. You can enter and leave freely, you must be careful of its safety."


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart warmed as he received the jade tablet. For once, he bowed: "Thank you, third sister."


    After walking out of the Yun Palace''s main entrance, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but turn around to take a glance at Yun Qingyao. She was also looking at him and it seemed that she was sighing.


    Although the original owner''s life was bitter, it was fortunate that he had a good sister. She raised a smile at what Peach Red had said about the eastern dry pawnshop.


    Along the way, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but feel a little regretful ¡ª He didn''t ask exactly how accurate he was beforehand, and only asked for the direction. Looking at the road now, where was the shadow of the pawnshop? If they couldn''t find it, then it would be a disaster! Yun Ruoleng rubbed his aching calves, then picked up his bag and continued walking.


    Fortunately, this time his luck wasn''t too bad. Yun Ruoleng stopped in his tracks, looked at the golden paint in front of him, and could not help but curse silently. Money came, money came!


    The shopkeeper looked exactly like a rich man. Although he hadn''t exchanged this much money, he should be able to survive for quite a while. Yun Ruoleng turned his body with satisfaction and was about to leave when he suddenly heard a commotion nearby.


    Originally, Yun Ruoleng did not want to bother with it.


    Ahh!" a scream rang out from the crowd. Female? Was there a woman screaming nearby?


    Was he bullying a woman? Yun Ruoleng immediately felt indignant, there were so many people around, was he trying to bully a woman in broad daylight?


    She pushed the silver taels towards the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, I''ll have to trouble you to keep it safe. I''ll be right back."


    "Alright." The shopkeeper nodded enthusiastically before starting to busy himself with another customer who was a customer. Yun Ruoleng pushed the crowd aside and looked. A man with shifty eyes and a group of thugs was speaking vulgarly to a woman with thin clothes.


    "Little bitch, you can only come with me. Follow me, Wang Fucai. Eat and drink spicy food everyday, what''s wrong with that? For a little bitch like you, to become my concubine, you must be putting on airs! " The shifty-eyed man had a lewd smile on his face and his fingers were already about to reach the girl''s body.


    The woman was probably bullied. She stayed in the corner and didn''t dare to resist, only whimpering. Yun Ruoleng could no longer hold it in and voiced out, "What kind of ability do you have to snatch a commoner''s daughter in broad daylight?"


    Wang Fu was startled. Seeing that it was a kid with tattered clothes, he sneered: "Who are you to dare block me? "Do you know that I''m in the capital and no one dares to speak to me like that?!"


    Yun Ruoleng disdainfully said: "Bullying women, what kind of man are you?"


    The surrounding people booed as well. When had Wang Zifu ever received such treatment? His face turned white with anger: "You! Someone, teach him a lesson! "

 C12

    Yun Ruoleng was also a little afraid, but if he himself looked like he was terrified, then Wang Fucai would be even more arrogant. Since this woman was already beginning to save him, he had to follow her rules and succeed. He could only watch as the group of thugs pounced at him and whispered, "Ah ¡­"


    How to... No pain? What was going on? It didn''t hurt? Had he been beaten to the point where he didn''t feel any pain? Yun Ruoleng''s mind immediately cleared up, and the group of thugs were all lying on the ground, their faces were all puckered up, and they looked like they were suffering from quite a few injuries, what was going on?


    After staring blankly for two seconds, the crowd suddenly burst into applause and cheers. "Good!"


    In the capital, young master Wang had used his training to train his henchmen to the point of fooling around. Prime Minister Wang also turned a blind eye to this and normally no one would dare touch him. Who would have thought that this thin and weak looking youth would be able to subdue them without even using his hands!


    One could not judge a book by its cover!


    If Yun Ruoleng knew the thoughts in the hearts of the crowd, he would probably die from laughter.


    Seeing how he was easily defeated while being so arrogant and unbridled, then he ¡­ Would he be chopped into pieces? This gentle and weak youth seemed to be an expert in martial arts. Wasn''t this too hard to imagine?


    Wang Fucai tactfully begged for mercy, "Young hero, I was wrong, I dare not do it again. I was the one who had eyes but failed to recognize Mt. Tai! Young Hero, let me go! "


    Yun Ruoleng held back his laughter with great difficulty, but on the surface, he still maintained his heroic demeanor: "Scram."


    That sudden power, could it be ¡­ The Shaman Power that Peach Blossom spoke of? Was it really that magical?


    "Dare I ask ¡­" May I have your name, Young Hero? " Wang Fu carefully asked.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered, how could this Wang Fu hold any good intentions, he probably wants to settle this debt later! " "Leng Yun!"


    "Leng Yun ¡­" This king does not have a rich family with the surname Leng ¡­ Wang Fucai smiled ingratiatingly as he fled.


    The crowd cheered again, "Young Hero Leng Yun is mighty!"


    Yun Ruoleng held onto the girl, she had a pretty face, looking at Yun Ruoleng, she could not help but blush: "Young hero, this servant is Floating Lotus, is willing to repay young hero''s kindness with her body!"


    "No need." Yun Ruoleng frowned, "I can only help you to this extent."


    "Young Hero ¡­"


    A deep and pleasant voice came from the carriage outside the crowd. "Let''s go."


    An Ying asked: "Master, do we need to investigate that person called Leng Yun?"


    This was one of the few times that His Highness had come to watch the show. Leng Yun''s makeup technique could only be concealed from ordinary people. Anyone who had some knowledge of disguising techniques would be able to tell at a glance that he was a woman. Originally, this duke thought that Jun Qingshang would coldly reject, but who would have thought that the answer he would receive would be: "Forget it, this king has not seen such an interesting person for a long time ¡­ It''s a woman. "


    After getting rid of the floating lotus flower with much difficulty, Yun Ruoleng felt as if his entire body had turned into a mess. After all this commotion, it was already late in the morning. She walked over to the pawnshop, took the things, and began to walk back.


    She wasn''t sure if there were any restrictions on the Minister¡¯s Mansion, so she had to hurry. She turned into an alley. When she first came here, she thought it was very lively, but it was getting dark now. It was indeed a bit ¡­ Dark.


    As the cold wind blew, Yun Ruoleng shrunk his neck and walked to the corner. When he raised his head, he saw a shady face that deserved a beating.

 C13

    That was ¡­ Wang Fucai?


    No, this was not that much weaker Wang Fucai from earlier in the day. Behind him, there was a bunch of big fellows!


    Wang Zicai laughed sinisterly, "Leng Yun, right? Aren''t you very arrogant? You want to bully me? You want me to apologize? "


    Oh no, she did not know how to use her Shaman Energy. If she could not release her Shaman Energy at the critical moment, then wouldn''t that mean ¡­ Am I going to die here?


    It looked like there were more than ten big guys. How could she possibly win? No one can win, right?


    She coughed twice and pretended to be calm. "Aren''t you afraid that I''ll beat you to death?"


    Wang Fu was stunned for two seconds. He was clearly afraid, but he mustered up his courage and said, "What? Are you still so powerful that you can defeat my fifteen elite fighters?"


    Fifteen elite fighters. It was a bit suspenseful. Yun Ruoleng pretended to be accumulating energy, and said: "You can come and try!"


    Wang Zicai''s reaction was a little slow, he stared at Yun Ruoleng for a minute, but she was still maintaining her poise, as though she had understood something, "You don''t have any martial arts!"


    Yun Ruoleng secretly paid his respects to Wang Fucai''s eighteen generations of ancestors, but unexpectedly, Wang Fucai was scared to death. After sensing the news, he almost died of joy, and immediately ordered: "You all, quickly attack!"


    The thugs were about to pounce on him, causing Yun Ruoleng to become extremely anxious, but he did not know what the conditions were. He could only watch as the thugs got closer and closer to him, "Wait!"


    Subconsciously, Wang Fu waved his hand, signaling them to stop. "What?"


    Before Yun Ruoleng could even speak, the sound of a carriage rolling on the ground suddenly came from the quiet alley. It was so quiet that Wang Fu''s face turned pale white: There''s ¡­ There''s a ghost! "


    Immediately afterwards, those thugs who were still majestic a moment ago suddenly fell to the ground as if they had been struck by a spell. Blood flowed from their eyes, ears, noses, and mouths, shocking everyone. How could Wang Zifu endure such a scene? He looked at his trump card being subdued and was scared shitless. He spread his legs and ran, shouting, "Help! There was a ghost! "Save me ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng wanted to laugh, but was unable to do so. Wang Fu was the fool, but she was not blind. Putting aside the fact that she believed in science, those thugs all had a silver needle stuck in their chest. It was obvious that they had been poisoned and fell to the ground. How could there be a ghost? However, who was the owner of the carriage?


    "Come out." She waved her hand. Since she was human, she had never been afraid. And that master must have saved her, right? Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to escape by herself. In other words, she had to thank him instead.


    Finally, she got an answer: "No need."


    The voice was indescribably pleasant to the ears, like the cry of a phoenix from Mount Kunlun. Yun Ruoleng was secretly surprised: "May I ask who you are? Why did you save me? "


    The voice paused again, "It''s just an injustice."


    Listening to that person''s words, it seemed that he did not want to pester her any more, so Yun Ruoleng was naturally too lazy to stick to it. She politely nodded. "Since that''s the case, Yun ¡­ Leng Yun thanks Sir, farewell. "


    "Youth" slowly disappeared from the end of the alley, and Jun Qingshang couldn''t help but chuckle: "He''s even a little wild cat ¡­"


    An Ying bowed and said in a low voice: "Master, I found it. That youth ¡­ is Seventh Miss Yun Ruoleng of the Yun Palace. "

 C14

    "Yun Ruoleng?" Jun Qingshang was a little surprised.


    Everyone in Heaven''s Enlightenment Kingdom knew that the Regent King was extremely handsome and had great authority; however, they also knew that the Seventh Miss s had disappointed everyone and created a huge joke. Some people even said that the Seventh Miss was extremely ugly, and was extremely foolish. How could it be ¡­ That way?


    He narrowed his eyes, his gaze tinged with ridicule. "Are you sure?"


    An Ying nodded his head, "That jade pendant is something only the Yun Mansion''s people have, and that young man''s temperament can''t be compared to a servant girl. The portraits of the young ladies of Minister¡¯s Mansion were all compared to each other, and the rest were not similar. Only the portraits of the Seventh Miss were incomplete, but this young one had seen the Seventh Miss a few days ago ¡­ It seems to be the same way, not much less. "


    Seeing Jun Qingshang support his chin with his hand and did not say a word, An Ying could not help but ask in a gossipy tone: "I wonder why Master is so concerned about that youth?"


    "An Ying, you have been getting more and more free these days." Jun Qingshang''s expression did not change, but no one dared to act rashly, "Where''s An Yue? He''s not back yet? "


    An Ying hurriedly lowered his head, "An Yue is still in Lou Lan''s secret plane, but he should be able to come out soon." Master should believe in An Yue''s strength, right?


    "Forget it, let''s return to the prince''s mansion." A soft sigh came from the carriage, resounding through the silent alleyway.


    Ao Xue Yuan.


    "Miss, you''re finally back!" Peach Blossom said excitedly, "Peach Blossom has been waiting for you for a long time!"


    Yun Ruoleng quickly took off the man''s makeup, and said while tidying up: "Quickly tell me, in the time I was outside, did anything happen?"


    Peach Red thought about it and said, "I do have something."


    "What is it?" Yun Ruoleng was panicking, at a time like this, if Yun Yueyu was able to catch him red-handed, it would be troublesome.


    "Today, the young miss brought someone to look for you." Peach Blossom touched her fingers, feeling wronged. Yun Ruoleng''s heart hung in his throat, "Continue, then what?"


    Peach Blossom let out a smile, "Then, the third miss came and used the zither arts to pull the eldest miss away. She was just in time!"


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng frowned, then why was Yun Qingyao so good to her? This... It made her a little unable to tell if it was an act or an act! She turned around and asked Peach Blossom, "What do you think of Third Miss?"


    Peach Blossom bit her lower lip and thought for a moment. "Third Miss is a lady that all the servants in the mansion praise. She has a gentle temperament and is very beautiful."


    "Then... What did she do to me? " Yun Ruoleng said solemnly, "I told you, you don''t have to be afraid of saying anything wrong. There''s no one else''s opinion here."


    Although she felt this question was really strange, Peach Blossom saw that her young miss was really serious and could only say seriously, "Third Miss treats her young miss very well. Anyway, Peach Blossom thinks so."


    "Ever since Third Young Miss was adopted to the First Madam, and upon hearing that the young miss had been wronged, and had not eaten her fill or worn warm clothes, she had often secretly sent over some winter necessities and food, which kept the sickly young miss alive at that time."


    "So she''s a good person?" Yun Ruoleng continued to nod his head. Seems like Yun Qingyao should be the legendary Virgin Mary, just that the Virgin Mary died a little earlier, right? Yun Ruoleng cursed.


    But in truth, Yun Qingyao was quite in line with this setup. He didn''t know why, but the way she looked at him seemed to be always soft and gentle, full of sincerity, making people feel ¡­ He really couldn''t not believe it.

 C15

    "Forget it." Yun Ruoleng flung this thought out of his mind and happily took out the black package, "Look at the silver your young miss is taking back as an item!"


    On the next day, the Residence of Yun received an unexpected guest.


    The welcoming hall was decorated extravagantly. This was the most splendid place in the Minister¡¯s Mansion, and was especially used to receive esteemed guests. But today, Minister Yun felt that this esteemed guest seemed to be a little ¡­ Extra expensive?


    But this is for the best. He looked at the man dressed in the black robe of a Flood Dragon with a fawning expression, "Your Highness ¡­ "Your Highness ¡­"


    The black robe of the Flood Dragon was the symbol of the Regent of the Heavenly Enlightenment. The Regent had assisted the Little Emperor in his politics, and the Little Emperor had not rejected him. Instead, he had admired him from the bottom of his heart. That was what was truly admirable.


    Jun Qingshang indifferently swept his eyes across the welcoming hall, and did not make a sound. After a long period of silence, only then did Minister Yun break the silence with a head full of sweat: "I wonder what business does the hall have today?"


    Jun Qingshang narrowed his eyes, there was no trace of happiness or anger in them as he said, "This duke has come to find a young miss from your Yun Mansion."


    Miss? Minister Yun was immediately overjoyed, "This official will go and get Yu-er!"


    This was great news, could it be that His Highness the Regent had suddenly become interested in his eldest daughter? That was for the best. He was worried that he would leave a bad impression yesterday. From the looks of it, he might not be angry!


    Just as he was about to happily walk out, Minister Yun was suddenly called out: "Wait."


    Minister Yun''s face stiffened as he turned around and asked somewhat fearfully: "Does Your Highness have any other orders?"


    It wasn''t that he was being overly humble, but that the Regent was someone he couldn''t afford to offend in the Heavenly Stellar Kingdom!


    "There''s no need to only look for Miss Yun. Call out all the young ladies in your residence." Jun Qingshang shrugged his shoulders, "This king is very interested in all of them."


    Could it be that he had taken a fancy to Yao''er? Or both? That''s better. Good daughters, you must do your best to capture this great benefactor! Minister Yun felt as if he had fallen into an icehouse, and his face was now flushed with happiness. His mouth was almost crooked as he laughed and replied, "Yes! "Yes!"


    A light flashed in his eyes as he took down the Regent ¡­ Then his career as a official must have been smooth sailing!


    The Residence of Yun had four daughters. If the Fifth Miss had not been mentioned earlier, there would only be three. Very quickly, Yun Yueyu and Yun Qingyao arrived at the welcoming hall. When Yun Yueyu saw Jun Qingshang, his face immediately flushed red. He looked extremely charming, while Yun Qingyao was a little confused.


    Minister Yun put up a face full of smiles: "Your Highness, it''s here."


    Originally, he thought that Jun Qingshang was about to do something, but he didn''t expect him to not even raise his eyebrows: "Master Shang Shu, don''t you have three daughters? Since when are there only two? "


    Minister Yun''s face paled. "This ¡­" Recently, my seven daughters are not feeling well and it is inconvenient for them to go out to meet guests ¡­ I hope Your Highness understands! "


    "Is that so?" Jun Qingshang said with a smile that was not a smile, "This king should understand."


    Minister Yun heaved a sigh of relief, it was good that he did not pursue the matter, he did not want that good-for-nothing to embarrass himself. If this great benefactor was unhappy with her, it wouldn''t be wrong to beat her to death!


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows and looked at it, "Raise your head."


    Hearing these words, Minister Yun hurriedly called out, "Yu''er, Yao''er, quickly raise your head and let His Highness the Regent have a look!"

 C16

    The two beauties raised their heads. Each of them had their own flavor and temperament. It was just that Jun Qingshang''s expression did not change at all ¡ª ¡ª he was not looking for these two people, no matter how beautiful they were, it would be useless.


    Besides, if that young man really dressed up, he would truly be a beauty that would shock everyone.


    Jun Qingshang could not help but smile evilly, causing the people below to be a little dazed.


    Yun Yueyu bashfully lowered her head, her face was already so red that it was seductive. Although Yun Qingyao was not that serious, a trace of a young girl''s shyness still flashed past her eyes.


    Minister Yun only thought that he was interested in his two daughters. He was so happy that he could not stop smiling and was secretly excited.


    If he could get his hands on this great benefactor, then the Yun Family would probably not just be a mere Minister¡¯s Mansion, they might even become prime ministers, right? As Minister Yun thought of this, his smile became somewhat genuine.


    "I wonder how His Highness thinks of my two daughters?" Minister Yun gathered up his courage and asked.


    Jun Qingshang held his chin, and said absent-mindedly: "Hmm, they are all rare beauties."


    He got the answer he wanted. "This old official''s daughter is extremely talented. Your highness has seen her before ¡ª Yu''er, go quickly and dance for your highness!"


    Yun Yueyu pursed her lips, looked up coquettishly, then walked to the center of the room with elegant footsteps, raised her sleeves and started dancing.


    After watching the group of young misses perform their talents in boredom, Jun Qingshang stood up and said: "Forget it, I still have matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first."


    Minister Yun was a bit surprised, just what did this Regent come here for? Just to sit here and look at the girls? "Since when has Your Highness been so bored?" Hall... "Your Highness ¡­"


    Jun Qingshang swept a glance over him and asked: "What, does Master Shang Shu still have business?"


    "No, no, no, no ¡­" "No ¡­" Minister Yun could only swallow his anger, was it possible that His Highness the Regent was not satisfied with the treatment? This is bad, don''t leave His Highness with any bad impression!


    Jun Qingshang nodded, he turned and walked out of the welcoming hall.


    He didn''t gain much from this trip. Jun Qingshang was suddenly a little disappointed, and then a little shocked. Lost... How long had it been since he had felt this sensation? For a woman that he had not seen for a long time ¡­


    Perhaps it was because he felt that she was of the same species? A hint of playfulness flashed across Jun Qingshang''s eyes. A woman that could ignite his interest, was actually the first! He would always find her, not in a hurry, would he?


    Just that ¡ª Jun Qingshang suddenly stopped in his tracks. Damn it, this place... Where is it?


    This place seemed to be the remote border of the Residence of Yun. The vicinity was filled with vegetation, and it seemed to be a garden. Jun Qingshang took a deep breath. Forget it, not everyone in Heaven''s Enlightenment would recognize a Regent like him. If he were to randomly ask a servant girl, he should be able to find the way out.


    He walked around the garden a few times, frowning again. It looked desolate and desolate, and he wondered if there were any servants around. Normally, he would have his guards follow him around, so there wouldn''t be any mistakes. However, this time ¡­ Jun Qingshang clenched his fists: "Damn it!"


    Not far away ¡ª


    Yun Ruoleng wiped his sweat and called out: "Dig in here! Don''t break the roots ¡ª be careful, Peach Blossom! "


    "Yes, miss!" Peach Blossom waved her hoe and dug into the ground. The flower was finally dug out completely. We''ve dug it out! "

 C17

    Looking at Peach Blossom''s excited expression, Yun Ruoleng could only laugh: "I know, I saw it."


    "Miss, can we go back now?" The peach red eyes immediately became sparkling.


    So it turned out that this little girl wanted to go back. With one hand, Yun Ruoleng lifted up the hibiscus plant. "Alright, let''s go."


    Turning around, raising his head, Yun Ruoleng''s expression instantly froze.


    The man dressed in the black robe of the Flood Dragon was tall and tall. His phoenix eyes were slightly squinted, and his pearly lips were extremely thin. He had a straight nose, and his facial features were exquisite. It was flawless. Her hair was black and tied up. Her skin was whiter and prettier than a woman''s.


    At first glance, if Yun Ruoleng could only say four words, she would be a peerless beauty; if she could only say five, it would be a bit more vulgar ¡ª ¡ª This was a demon!


    Jun Qingshang was also shocked, how could he recognize the wrong face, wasn''t it the young man he was looking for?


    The atmosphere suddenly became delicate. Peach Blossom was at a loss on what to do. This man had such a strong aura!


    In the end, it was Jun Qingshang who broke the silence, "You are?"


    Why did this voice sound so familiar? Yun Ruoleng thought about it carefully, but he still could not think of who it was. "What about you?"


    Did she not remember? Jun Qingshang answered with a question, "This ¡­ I would like to ask Miss a single question.


    Not knowing why, Yun Ruoleng felt that he did not seem to have any rejection towards him, and very naturally, he said: "Peach Blossom, you go over first."


    Peach Red was a little worried. "Young Miss ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng found it funny, "Are you afraid that your young miss has been eaten? "Go on, go on."


    Although she was unwilling, Peach Blossom could only obediently withdraw. "... "Yes, miss."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned: "Everyone has left, what do you want to say?"


    Jun Qingshang was silent for a few seconds, but the moment the words reached his lips, he felt that it was weird: "Forget it, pretend I didn''t say anything."


    "¡­" What the hell? Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows in surprise, "You are ¡­ Are you kidding me? "


    He turned around and left with a cold face. Yun Ruoleng was a little baffled by his back, so he simply squatted down and dug up a few more flowers.


    But ¡ª why was this person lingering?


    Yun Ruoleng watched him walk past the garden again and again as if he was passing by, and finally became a little impatient: "Elder, are you lost? It''s so dazzling that my eyes are going blurry! "


    The voice paused and said: "... I was just strolling around the garden. "


    Yun Ruoleng looked up and found it hard to understand: "What''s so good about this garden? It''s overgrown with wild grass, and you can walk around this many times?"


    "Can''t I?" Instead of answering, he asked a question.


    "I can." Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to dig out more, he suddenly thought of something, "You couldn''t have really gotten lost, right?"


    The man looked at her coldly, but didn''t deny it.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng expressed his disbelief, "This Yun Mansion is not big, but you actually got lost? Are you an idiot? "


    Jun Qingshang''s face was ashen, he decided to stop pretending, "Bring me out."


    This is... Ask for directions? Yun Ruoleng was a little surprised, this kind of person with a noble aura like an emperor actually asked her for directions? This person must be a pathless person, and his Minister¡¯s Mansion is not that big!


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng not replying for a long time, Jun Qingshang was somewhat angry, and his brows furrowed even more as he threatened: "You''re not willing?!"

 C18

    "Mm ¡­" Yun Ruoleng could not help but laugh, and then repeated his words without fear of death, "Are you an idiot?"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang cursed under his breath. His ears were actually a little red. Yun Ruoleng had clearly heard the news, and he suddenly wanted to laugh. Wasn''t it a very cold person? Looking at him like this, then ¡­ So cute!


    This woman wasn''t afraid of his threats at all? Just as Jun Qingshang was about to take action and pinch her neck, the sound of footsteps came from outside the garden, followed by the voice of Minister Yun, "Your Highness Regent!"


    There was no reply, and Minister Yun was suddenly terrified, "May I know why Your Highness is here?"


    When Jun Qingshang saw Yun Ruoleng''s funny expression, he was inexplicably angry. He turned around and coldly said, "This king is just casually strolling around."


    After he finished speaking, he swept his gaze across Yun Ruoleng as if nothing had happened, but there were a few traces of sharpness in his eyes. Yun Ruoleng was startled, then reacted, holding back his laughter without saying a word.


    This is the legendary cold and arrogant Regent? Why did she feel like ¡­ A little cute? Was it her imagination?


    Minister Yun did not dare to doubt, just as he was about to speak, Yun Yueyu caught his attention on Yun Ruoleng, and did not dare let things go, as he said in a strange tone: "I still thought that little sister was recuperating from her injuries, so she is waiting here for a noble person ah ¡ª"


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at her indifferently. With her intuition, there definitely wasn''t just one person who wanted to take revenge on her. Sure enough, in the next second, a dignified woman arrogantly cast her a glance. "Wild chickens can only be wild chickens, never becoming a phoenix. You can only dream about it. This should become the belief of some people."


    She squinted her eyes. This should be the legendary First Madam. At first, she didn''t want to cause too much trouble, but if she had come looking for trouble, she definitely wouldn''t back down.


    "What does First Madam mean by this? Leng Er didn''t understand. Yun Ruoleng said with a smile that was not a smile, "Sometimes it''s all due to luck. People who don''t have good luck, it''s useless no matter how much they struggle, this is what Leng Er believes in."


    "You!" First Madam was furious, "You little bitch, you actually dare to contradict me!"


    Yun Yueyu immediately chimed in: "Mother treated you so well, but you actually contradicted her! Yun Ruoleng, do you still have any feelings left? You are really... A cruel, unscrupulous person! "


    Yun Ruoleng was angered to the point of laughing, "First Madam, so it turns out you have been very good to me. To be honest, this is the first time I''ve heard of such a thing. How did First Madam treat me well? Are you trying to push me around, or are you trying to get the warehouse to send me some fast moldy supplies? Are you trying to suppress my servant girl, or are you trying to ruin my reputation? "


    The atmosphere immediately became awkward. Jun Qingshang glanced at Yun Ruoleng with interest, he never thought that this little wild cat would actually speak in such an overbearing manner, it was truly ¡­ It suits his taste.


    Minister Yun''s face was livid with anger. "Don''t say anymore!" Turning his face, he smiled at Jun Qingshang: "Your Highness, I have let you down ¡­"


    "What did Lord Shang Shu say?" Jun Qingshang smiled playfully, "Seventh Miss and I have a good chat, I like her personality very much, I hope Master Shang Shu can give me some face."


    "Leng Er is also this old man''s beloved daughter, if the Duke appreciates it, Leng Er, and even this old man will definitely be honored!"

 C19

    If the Regent had really set his eyes on Yun Ruoleng, then there shouldn''t be a problem to carefully pack him up, right?


    Minister Yun smiled hypocritically at Yun Ruoleng: "Leng Er, what do you think?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, "Yes, Father."


    Since this old man wanted her to give him some face, then he would just treat it as giving her face. However, the words that the Regent just said were ¡­ Help her? No matter how he looked at it, it sounded like he was trying to tell the truth ¡­


    That way, the old man would probably treat him more kindly in the future, right?


    In other words, the Regent wasn''t a bad person either ¡­ Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang with an even more grateful expression. Although this made Yun Yueyu and the First Madam hate her more, as long as she still had some use for Minister Yun, she would not be put to death.


    Minister Yun nodded his head in satisfaction. If Yun Ruoleng was obedient, he could still let her stay. Yun Ruoleng, my good Leng Er, you better not disappoint me!


    "Then Your Highness, this old subject will take my leave." Minister Yun looked at Jun Qingshang with a fawning look, then hurriedly took First Madam and the others and left. Yun Yueyu was naturally unwilling to leave, but after making a ruckus for a while, he looked at Yun Ruoleng with resentment and was pulled away.


    How could she not see through the thoughts of that old rogue? She must have thought that the man was interested in her and wanted them to develop their feelings for her.


    But... Yun Ruoleng suddenly raised his head and looked at Jun Qingshang''s face with all his might, as if he could see something from his expression.


    "Have I seen you before?" Yun Ruoleng hesitated for a moment, but still could not resist asking, "What I said was not to meet, but to... Haven''t we met before? "


    Jun Qingshang raised his brows, "Seventh Miss is truly a forgettable place. No matter what, I am your savior, and to the point of being heartless, I am not even willing to point the way for your savior."


    Savior? Yun Ruoleng suddenly opened his eyes wide and immediately retreated a step, defending himself: "What do you want to do?"


    Seeing the old scoundrel being so respectful to him, she knew that he was definitely not an easy character. Not to mention the idea of the Regent''s invincibility that Peach Blossom had instilled in her every day. If that was the case, then why did he mention saving her life? Wasn''t this a condition?


    Jun Qingshang smirked, "You reacted quite quickly."


    The man''s lips curved into a charming and charming smile. Yun Ruoleng was completely dazed by his smile. This monster, wasn''t he too good-looking?


    She forced herself to calm down. "Say it, what do you want? I, Yun Ruoleng, am not a person who would casually take advantage of others. Since you saved my life, I will naturally repay you with this favor.


    "Oh?" Jun Qingshang smiled lightly, "How about you devote your life to me?"


    Yun Ruoleng was struck quite a bit unconscious by the shocking thunderbolt, "You ¡­ What did you say? "


    Seeing her reaction, Jun Qingshang had originally just been teasing her, but now she was actually thinking about it. No matter who he married, it would be a woman from the Residence of Yun. If he married her, it would also be extremely interesting. He nodded seriously. "You didn''t mishear me."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng was stunned, he immediately reacted and bit his lower lip: "How can Leng Er be worthy of Your Highness? Leng Er''s two sisters are truly brilliant, your highness can casually pick any one of them. "


    Jun Qingshang stared at her intently, and smiled a little. He leaned close to her neck and exhaled a breath of hot air. "But this king has his eyes on you, what should I do?"

 C20

    Yun Ruoleng''s body immediately stiffened, he finally forced himself to speak: "Your Highness ¡­ "Self-respect."


    Seeing her nervous look, Jun Qingshang couldn''t help but find it funny. He straightened his body and recovered his usual look, "Since Seventh Miss is so insistent, this king will not force you. But if Seventh Miss said he would not decline, it would save him a lot of trouble. Since that is the case, Seventh Miss has to remember this duke''s favor. This King is ready to cash in on it in the future. "


    "¡­" He himself was ¡­ He was tricked?


    Looking at what he had just said, he was just teasing her a little, but she, Yun Ruoleng, had never been teased like a little kitten by others before. and come at any time to cash in... Truly unrestrained and shameless!


    Yun Ruoleng gnashed his teeth, endured it, suppressed his anger, and sighed: "And then, will Your Highness be able to leave?"


    Jun Qingshang was a little surprised: "The entire Heaven''s Enlightenment, no matter who it is, seeing this king coming here would make you wish that this king would not leave; you are the only exception, who actually asked this king to leave with a word."


    Yun Ruoleng shrugged and said, "Your Highness, look at my hands. I''m afraid I might dirty your clothes. "Look at my elder sister, doesn''t she like you? Isn''t it better for you to go there?"


    He narrowed his eyes and said, "You are the first one who dares to speak to This King in such a manner."


    There was already a hint of threat in his tone, and Yun Ruoleng still wanted to say something, but after thinking about his identity, he decided to endure it and take a step back into the vast ocean, "Leng Er doesn''t dare."


    Jun Qingshang''s eyes glanced at the dirt on her hands, and a trace of disdain still flashed past his eyes: "Go and organize yourself, follow this king to a place."


    The first thing that baffled Yun Ruoleng was not where he was bringing her, but ¡ª "The King is actually going to that place?"


    In other words, you, a fool, would get lost in the Residence of Yun. Where else would you dare to take me?


    Jun Qingshang''s face sank. "Don''t mention it to anyone else."


    He didn''t say it clearly, but both of them knew what it was. As the Regent, he had limitless glory, but he also had countless enemies. Thus, he naturally wouldn''t allow others to easily find out about his weakness.


    She nodded her head, her tone was sincere, but it was more of a teasing: "Leng Er is not stupid."


    Wasn''t she courting death by doing this?


    After tidying himself up, Yun Ruoleng wore a clean white robe. Her original appearance was very similar to that of her modern self. The only difference was that the original owner of the body was more classical and elegant. This made her more suitable to wear white clothes, making her look ethereal and refined.


    The young girl''s face was not covered in makeup, but she was still astonishingly beautiful. Liu Mei had apricot eyes, a fine nose and red lips, and long black hair that fell vertically to her waist like a waterfall. She only used a simple wooden hairpin to hold it in place.


    His skin was as white and greasy as white porcelain, but it also looked very warm and gentle like white jade. She was dressed in white, and was slim and petite, but there was a kind of extreme perseverance in her eyes. This was what attracted Jun Qingshang''s attention the most.


    Most of the girls in the Heaven''s Enlightenment were gentle, gentle, and virtuous, but she was the only one who had that kind of mysterious stubbornness and determination. The graceful, elegant, and peerlessly beautiful woman caused Jun Qingshang, who had seen many different kinds of beauties, to be dazzled for a moment.


    Yun Ruoleng tilted his head and asked helplessly: "Lord Regent, where are we going?"

 C21

    "You''ll know soon enough." Jun Qingshang regained his senses, coughed twice, and said faintly.


    He took out a jade flute from his sleeve, and the sound he made was ethereal and clear. Very quickly, the horizon actually ¡­ A condor flew over?


    This eagle was exceptionally small, barely enough to land on Jun Qingshang''s shoulder. He patted the eagle''s wings, and it flew forward to watch them.


    "This is?" Yun Ruoleng was a little surprised.


    "This is Ah Ye." Jun Qingshang''s rare expression softened a bit.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly could not help but laugh, "Could it be that this is your emissary who will be leading the way?"


    Jun Qingshang''s face darkened, and immediately closed his mouth: "I didn''t say anything."


    "Ye is extremely understanding of human nature." Jun Qingshang did not care about her anymore, "Follow closely."


    Although Yun Ruoleng was confused, but thinking about how he had angered the big boss, if she was not careful, he was afraid that he would have to bring a box lunch. He did not dare to ask and followed behind Jun Qingshang.


    It was hard to walk, even harder to walk with an eagle. Yun Ruoleng was a little out of breath, "Hall ¡­ Your Highness, where is your carriage? "


    He glanced at her indifferently: "An Ying didn''t follow out. There''s no carriage."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng frowned, "Then you walked in yourself?"


    Jun Qingshang did not care about her unruly behavior, he raised his eyebrows and said: "No."


    Yun Ruoleng was too lazy to waste his energy to speak anymore, he gritted his teeth and decided to just straighten it out, but he did not expect Jun Qingshang to ask him again in an extremely kind tone: "You can''t walk anymore?"


    Yun Ruoleng lowered his eyebrows and nodded, he naturally knew in his heart that it was impossible for Jun Qingshang to have made such a discovery. Sure enough, Jun Qingshang''s next sentence was: "It''s really useless."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng really wanted to roll his eyes.


    For some reason, when Jun Qingshang saw her like this, he felt that he really wanted to ¡­ Bullying her?


    When they finally reached their destination, they actually arrived at a magnificent palace. At a glance, Yun Ruoleng didn''t think much of it. When the guards at the door saw that it was Jun Qingshang, they all retreated, and the two of them walked to the center of the hall unhindered.


    Why did Yun Ruoleng feel that this place was a little familiar?


    An image suddenly appeared in his mind: a young girl timidly looking at the crystal ball on the stage. The surrounding people were all looking at her expectantly. She put her hand on the crystal ball, but it didn''t respond. The people below the stage immediately started booing.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his temple, feeling a headache coming on. These should be fragments of memories left behind by the original owner, right? It seems like this place is ¡­ A place to test Shaman Energy? Did he sense something?


    No, we can''t let anyone know about this now! Yun Ruoleng acted as though he was uncomfortable, and hugged his shoulders: "I want to go back now, okay?"


    She thought for a moment and decided to add a bit more politeness. "Your Highness? "Can you?"


    Jun Qingshang raised her eyebrows, her performance was flawless, she was a clever woman. "Do you think so?" He looked at the crystal ball on the stage. "Get on."


    "No." Yun Ruoleng shook his head fiercely, "I''m a little cold, so I don''t wear much."


    "Why doesn''t This King feel cold?" Jun Qingshang''s smile was mixed with threat.


    "Your highness'' body is so good, of course you won''t feel cold." Yun Ruoleng smiled and flattered her on the way.


    This Regent, don''t be overbearing ¡­ She was currently powerless, and didn''t know how to use her Shaman Energy. In front of him, she was probably no different from a little chick, one that he could crush with a raise of his hand.

 C22

    Unfortunately, reality was the complete opposite of Yun Ruoleng''s expectations.


    Jun Qingshang grabbed her hand, and dragged her all the way to the arena. "Do you want to do it yourself, or does this duke help you?"


    Yun Ruoleng laughed dryly. Since things had come to this, he might as well be more obedient. She struggled free from Jun Qingshang: "I won''t trouble Your Highness to take action."


    After mulling over it for a long time, she gently pressed her hand onto the crystal ball. Nothing happened.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to raise her hand, she did not expect Jun Qingshang to hold her hand tightly in the crystal ball!


    The crystal ball seemed to have exploded, releasing a multicolored light that lit up the entire hall. These lights flashed for a long time, before finally turning into gold. This was a gold that only the purest witch could identify!


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head in satisfaction, as he expected. He smiled slightly, looked at Yun Ruoleng, and said, "This king advises Seventh Miss, it''s best if you don''t keep thinking about how this duke is clever."


    Yun Ruoleng lowered his head. Although he looked like he was sticking to the crystal ball, he only looked like it. Indeed, in the face of this old fox who was even craftier than Old Yun, he could not do anything!


    "In front of all the Witch clan elders, Seventh Miss does not have any power of magic. "But now ¡­" Jun Qingshang smirked, "Seventh Miss, can you explain it?"


    Yun Ruoleng knew that it would be a waste to lie in front of him, so he answered half-truthfully: "It happened all of a sudden, I ¡­ Leng Er is also very strange. "


    "Full Star Talent." Jun Qingshang nodded his head in satisfaction, "If this were to spread out, my Seventh Miss''s reputation would probably spread far and wide."


    "¡­" Big noise my ass! Yun Ruoleng bit her lower lip, and lowered her head to act meek, "Leng Er is not willing to steal my big sisters'' reputation, I hope that Your Highness can grant my wish."


    "You are very kind." Jun Qingshang intentionally or unintentionally re-read the word "kindness" again. Yun Ruoleng knew in his heart that he was ridiculing Yun Che, but unexpectedly, he was not overbearing nor overbearing as he faced off against him:


    "Your Highness, do you think that if I were a bit more kindhearted, my life would be as good as it is now?"


    The young girl''s eyes were bright and filled with white teeth. Her eyes were filled with ridicule and ridicule. Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, and did not say anything.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at him in amusement and continued: "If I were kind, as a concubine, I would not be favored. If I hadn''t planned for myself, I wouldn''t have lived to this day. "


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, "Oh, continue."


    Yun Ruoleng continued without any pressure: "Moreover, if Your Highness likes the soft and weak little white flowers, I will disappoint Your Highness. Besides, I don''t want His Highness to have any more interest in me. Your Highness is handsome and has a high position in power, so how many good and kind women would have to get close to him, so there''s no need to look for unhappiness on your own. "


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang laughed instead of getting angry, and said, "What a sharp tongued little wild cat."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at him in shock, suppressing the fear in his heart. Was this man sick? He was going to go berserk, but he couldn''t be too ruthless. The most important thing was to protect his own life.


    He had already prepared himself to endure Jun Qingshang''s anger, but unexpectedly, a low voice sounded next to his ear, "I want you to become my subordinate, do you have any objections?"


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly trembled, and subconsciously shook his head: "Your Highness, you can''t!"


    "Can''t?" Jun Qingshang was a little surprised.

 C23

    Whether it was in the Heavenly Awakening or the Yue Ling, the number of people who wanted to be subordinate to him was simply uncountable. This woman actually rejected him mercilessly?


    Jun Qingshang suddenly pressed her against the wall, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "Aren''t you afraid that I''ll kill you in anger?"


    Yun Ruoleng bit her lips, raised her head and revealed her fair neck: "Your Highness, if you want to kill me, I will let you have it!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, an unfathomable light flashing from his eyes, "You don''t look like someone who would sacrifice his life for the sake of others."


    Yun Ruoleng smiled with an easy smile, but the wetness in his hands still betrayed her emotions, "Sorry, Leng Er is that."


    She raised her head to look at Jun Qingshang, clenching her fists tightly, she could not help but ask: "Your Highness can step aside now?"


    "Sorry, This King can''t." Jun Qingshang smiled faintly, "Furthermore, if I don''t move aside, what can you do?"


    "¡­" That was a fact. She couldn''t beat this old fox even now ¡­ It seemed that he could only use soft ones!


    Yun Ruoleng clenched his fists: "Your Highness, Leng Er appreciates your good intentions. But now, Leng Er... I don''t have any plans to go anywhere. " She raised her head and looked straight at Jun Qingshang: "Your Highness, Leng Er isn''t someone who wants to stand out. Even if I have this bit of power, Leng Er still hopes that your highness can keep this a secret for Leng Er. "And more importantly ¡ª"


    She paused, and enunciated every word: "Leng Er would not force himself to do something he did not want to do!"


    Jun Qingshang was stunned for two seconds, and then unexpectedly laughed softly: "You sure have a strong temper."


    However, this fiery temper of his really suited his taste. He wouldn''t force himself to do something he didn''t like. It was very similar to him.


    Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, but instead sighed and said: "Alright, it''s just that with your Innate Skill, not training would be a waste."


    "This is exactly what she wanted, to control Shaman Energy. If that''s the case, why would she be afraid of anyone?" Do you know how to cultivate it? "


    He nodded lightly and said meaningfully: "Seventh Miss, if you want to learn a method to cultivate magic power, then this king will not be at a disadvantage. Remember, This King will never do business that loses money. "


    Pui, you''re a regent and you talk like you do business a lot! Yun Ruoleng cursed in his heart as he welcomed her with a smile that was full of happiness, "Your Highness, just say what you want."


    "It''s simple. If This King needs you in the future, you must come and help us."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, "Then if you need me everyday, wouldn''t I still have to go and provide assistance?" What was this all about? She wasn''t a part-time nanny!


    "You have no choice." The reply came quickly, but it didn''t go as planned. The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth lifted into a smile. It was still the same peerless talent that would captivate one''s heart, but Yun Ruoleng was no longer in a mood to appreciate it. "Are you threatening me?"


    "That''s right." Jun Qingshang''s smile did not change, "Also, Seventh Miss, please take note of the etiquette a lady from a noble family should have."


    "¡­" She endured! If her skills were inferior to others, she had to endure it! By the time she mastered this art, she would definitely be the first one to step on him and kill him! Han Xin was even able to endure the humiliation. It was no big deal if he went to help him a few times! Yun Ruoleng comforted himself several times and nodded, "Alright."


    How could Jun Qingshang not see through her little thoughts?

 C24

    Yun Ruoleng immediately said: "Quickly tell me, Your Highness, how do you train your Shaman Energy?"


    He raised his eyebrows. "Now is not the time. When the time comes, This King will naturally tell you."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng was a little silly, but when she realised it, she had been... A routine?


    It was a good time. Who knew when it would be a good time? As long as he wanted to, it wouldn''t be a good time until she died!


    She smiled obsequiously, and decided to fight for it again: "Actually Your Highness, Leng Er feels that the time is right right now, isn''t it ¡­"


    Jun Qingshang smiled lightly and answered flawlessly: "How do you know?"


    Suddenly, a black-robed man ran up the stairs and Yun Ruoleng saw his face clearly. He could be considered a very handsome youth, but compared to Jun Qingshang, he was obviously much more beautiful. He respectfully greeted, "Master."


    "Is everything ready?" Jun Qingshang said in a low voice.


    Yun Ruoleng knew that this was not something she should get involved with, so he decided to walk around the Main Palace. An Ying immediately nodded. "Yes."


    "Where''s An Yue?"


    "I am on standby at the King''s Manor. The mission has been successfully completed."


    Jun Qingshang said in satisfaction, "Tell him to keep an eye on that Seventh Miss of the Yun Palace from tomorrow onwards and report to me at any time."


    "Then... What about Master now? "


    Jun Qingshang thought for a moment, then waved at Yun Ruoleng: "Come here."


    She reacted and ran over to ask, "What other orders does Your Highness have?"


    Jun Qingshang ignored her sloppy words: "It''s getting late, An Ying will send you back."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the black-robed youth, then suddenly went over, and used a voice that only two people could hear: "Then, Your Highness ¡­ What will you do? "


    Jun Qingshang''s face immediately darkened. Yun Ruoleng''s tone of voice was not one of concern at all, but plain and naked... Taunt!


    "This King doesn''t need you to care." Jun Qingshang looked at her coldly, turned around and said to An Ying: "Don''t make any mistakes."


    An Ying hurriedly nodded: "Yes, Master."


    Just as he was about to leave, Yun Ruoleng seemed to have thought of something and quickly said to An Ying: "Wait, I still have some private matters to discuss with your master. Stay far away."


    A martial artist should be able to listen in every direction. It was impossible for someone far away to not be alerted at all, alright? An Ying had no choice but to laugh bitterly: "Yes, Miss."


    She quickly ran to Jun Qingshang''s side and went over to him, "Your Highness, for an equal exchange, I won''t tell anyone about you ¡­ Lu Chi, you can''t tell anyone about my power either. This afternoon''s incident, just pretend it never happened. "


    Jun Qingshang smiled yet not a smile, but his answer was extremely succinct: "What qualifications do you have to exchange with this king at the same price?"


    "¡­" She knew it wouldn''t be that easy! Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath, and laughed: "Your Highness, I think there are quite a few enemies, if I were to accidentally reveal it, I would have ¡­"


    "You are ¡­ Threatening This King? " Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes dangerously, a powerful aura instantly emitted from his body, "Do you know, this king can kill you right now?"


    "But wouldn''t Your Highness be one?" Yun Ruoleng resisted with all her might, "I''m still useful to Your Highness, right?"

 C25

    Jun Qingshang sneered, and turned around: "An Ying, take her away."


    "Jun Qingshang!" Seeing that An Ying was about to come over and pull him away, Yun Ruoleng immediately cried out.


    He frowned. "Who allowed you to call This King by name?"


    How strange, why did she call him by that name? I actually don''t feel particularly disgusted with her, I just feel a bit ¡­ Not used to it? His gaze turned cold. "Take her away!"


    Yun Ruoleng was suddenly stunned, and let An Ying drag him away. Really ¡­ It was enough to leave. At least he wouldn''t die. Why did she call him? Wasn''t this suicidal? How come I''m a little out of control these days? Why did she call him subconsciously? Could it be ¡­ Was he trying to stay?


    How is this possible? She tossed out this thought from her mind and followed An Ying''s lead.


    When he arrived at the entrance of the Yun Palace, Yun Ruoleng discovered that there was actually a large group of people at the entrance, including Minister Yun, First Madam, Aunt Su, Yun Qingyao; there was actually still ¡­ Yun Yueyu?


    This is a little... The attitude of returning home in glory!


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng had returned, Master Shang Shu ¡ª ¡ª Yun Shicheng''s eyes lit up, and immediately came closer: "Leng Er, you''re finally back!"


    Seeing his smiling expression, Yun Ruoleng could not help but find it funny. She still didn''t understand the original intention of this old man. He probably didn''t want her to come back for the night at all, right? It was probably just by relying on Jun Qingshang to give him some face. She nodded at An Ying, indicating for him to leave, then smiled: "Yes, Daddy."


    Yun Yueyu was obviously dissatisfied by the side, but under Yun Shicheng''s nudging, he could only come over and say: "Little sister, in the past, big sister was wrong, big sister is here apologizing for you."


    Then, Yun Shicheng immediately began to speak: "Leng Er, I know you are filial, but I only have one request: If you really eat in front of the Regent, it would be good for you to help your sister get a room."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng raised a smile. It seems like this pair of father and daughter pair had colluded together already, and even wanted her to raise the topic ¡­ Let''s not talk about the impossible between her and Jun Qingshang, even if it was possible, she would definitely not bring Yun Yueyu up, okay? Did he really think of her as a pushover? She''s not a saint!


    "Father, don''t worry. If that day comes, Leng Er will do his best to help big sister." Yun Ruoleng replied meekly.


    Right now, she didn''t plan to go all out. After all, she said that she would do her best in accordance to her own rules. She would try her best if she wanted to help, and she would try her best if she didn''t. This Yun Shicheng and Yun Yueyu naturally were not clear, but were secretly happy. Along with Yun Yueyu''s attitude towards her, she became a lot better, "Then elder sister will thank little sister first!"


    Yun Ruoleng raised his head and met Aunt Su''s gaze. She had heard of this Aunt Su before, she was one of the weaker aunts in the Residence of Yun.


    Because First Madam''s mother''s clan could be considered to be relatively stronger, Yun Shicheng could be considered to have turned a blind eye to this. As for Aunt Su, she was a distant cousin of the First Madam and could help the original owner in the past. She smiled at her and said, "Is Aunt free today?"


    In the Tian Qi Kingdom, the aunt''s status was usually lower, slightly higher than the maid''s status. She was in a more miserable situation, and her own children were of higher status than her. Aunt Su was flattered. "Yes ¡­" Leng Er has grown into a big girl. "

 C26

    Yun Ruoleng smiled as he entered the main entrance of the Yun Manor. She didn''t know why, but she kept having the feeling that this Aunt Su wasn''t such a simple person. Not to say scheming, but... Even though she was being suppressed at every turn, she was still able to follow that old fellow Yun Shicheng. Even those popular aunts didn''t have such treatment, right?


    Forget it, these matters had nothing to do with her at the moment. The only reason she took the initiative to be friendly was because Aunt Su treated the original owner rather well.


    Returning to the Ao Xue Yuan Garden, but the inside was not a desolate and desolate scene, many people were moving things out, Yun Ruoleng frowned, what''s going on? Still trying to destroy the family?


    Peach Blossom happened to notice Yun Ruoleng''s return and immediately ran over: "Miss, the Master said he wants to help you! "Now ¡­"


    "Move the courtyard?" Yun Ruoleng smacked his head and immediately rushed forward to block the people who were carrying the things, "Wait! Don''t move! "


    The person stopped in her tracks was confused. "Miss, what are you trying to do?"


    "No need to move." Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath, "I won''t move."


    "This ¡­" That person was clearly in a difficult position. "This was ordered by the lord ¡­"


    "I''m telling you old master, I won''t move unless I decorate the garden a bit." Yun Ruoleng smiled politely, "If you still think you can''t, I will bear the consequences. Put these things in place, and then you can leave. "


    Now that things had come to this, he would be a fool if he didn''t leave. After putting everything back in place, Peach Blossom was a little disappointed. "Why didn''t Miss move? This Ao Xue Yuan Garden is so desolate, it''s so difficult to move, why does Miss still refuse? "


    "I have my own considerations." Yun Ruoleng sat down and drank a mouthful of tea, then said seriously, "You know that the fact that your young miss has Witch Energy cannot be spread out. Although the Ao Xue Yuan Garden was a little deserted, it was still safer. "I will definitely come here to cultivate in the future. If there is too much commotion and too much commotion, wouldn''t there be only the path of death?"


    "But, didn''t His Majesty the Regent ¡­" Peach Red shyly lowered her head, but she was secretly happy. "No ¡­" Miss Xin Yue''s? "


    "Pu ~" All of the tea in his mouth sprayed out, Yun Ruoleng coughed a few times, almost choking to death. She looked up, her eyes red. "Peach Blossom, are you trying to kill me?"


    "No, no, no. Peach Blossom doesn''t dare!" Peach Blossom quickly explained, "Peach Blossom, listen to them ¡­"


    They must be the women of the Residence of Yun. Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but roll his eyes. "You actually believe such words? The Regent and I have no relationship at all.


    Pouting her mouth, she said, "But, Peach Blossom clearly heard that the Lord Regent personally said that the young miss was fine, and even asked the Lord to take care of the young lady."


    "Pfft!" Yun Ruoleng immediately cleared her throat: "There''s really nothing going on between him and I, at most, we''re only friends."


    Seeing that, Peach Blossom did not say anything else and turned around to check if she was missing something. Yun Ruoleng rubbed her temples. She kept having the feeling that she hadn''t been doing well recently.


    With Yun Yueyu''s personality, how could he be willing to just be a side room? Yun Ruoleng smiled faintly, this was only a foolproof plan.


    Come in, she could choose to kill her; if he killed her, with the strong support of that old fellow Yun Shicheng, climbing up to the main seat should not be too big of a problem.

 C27

    If she retreated, she could choose to be an imperial concubine in peace, or be helped to the main wife after getting rid of her in Regent¡¯s Mansion.


    His thoughts were quite comprehensive, and the only thing he could think of was ¡ª ¡ª Unfortunately, Yun Ruoleng was no longer the weak and easily bullied Yun Ruoleng from before, so how could he let them do whatever they wanted?


    Whatever it was, he had to face it head on. She did not believe that she, Yun Ruoleng, would have such a breakthrough!


    On the other hand, Yun Shicheng that old fellow was giving more and more face, and on the second day, he sent people to properly repair the Ao Xue Garden. Yun Ruoleng sat on the reclining chair leisurely eating grapes as he erected an umbrella to bask in the sunlight. Peach Blossom worriedly asked, "Miss, you couldn''t have gotten hit by the heat, right?"


    She waved her hand and closed her eyes as she said, "Your young miss is bathing in the sun. How could she be so delicate?"


    "Miss will be tanned ¡­"


    "Wheat colored skin is even sexier."


    "¡­" Why is it that Miss is getting weirder and weirder these days? Weren''t they unable to bask in the sun in the past?


    Just as the servants were repairing the garden, the garden''s wooden door was suddenly pushed open. The Ao Xue Yuan had once again successfully welcomed an unexpected guest.


    Yun Yueyu wore a light orange skirt, and on her body were quite a few gold ornaments, incomparably charming. Yun Ruoleng opened his eyes and could not help but exclaim, this truly is a rich flower!


    Unfortunately, it seemed to be in all the novels. Even the rich and powerful flowers in the mortal world would die early, right? This Yun Yueyu is really impatient, to reveal her fox tail so quickly?


    Peach Blossom immediately bowed, "Greetings, Eldest Miss."


    Yun Yueyu acted like a tolerant and magnanimous goddess when she got up, and asked Yun Ruoleng: "Sister, are you bathing in the sun here?"


    Yun Ruoleng laughed dryly: "Didn''t sister see that?" Really ¡­ Acting!


    The situation immediately became awkward. Yun Yueyu finally found a suitable place for himself, and changed the topic: "I wonder what my sister went out to do with Your Highness yesterday ¡­ Is it convenient for little sister to tell me? "


    Convenient? Yun Yueyu squinted his eyes, and said with a businesslike tone: "Elder sister, you might not know, but a person with an identity like the Lord Regent, his whereabouts cannot be easily exposed. "Although little sister would like to share it with big sister, but ¡­"


    Yun Yueyu''s face turned white: You can''t even secretly tell big sister?


    Yun Ruoleng said with a helpless look on his face, "That''s right."


    Acting pitiful to her at this time? She''s not going to do that!


    Yun Yueyu clenched his fist, and lowered his head: "She can be considered a big sister ¡­. I''m begging you, but I can''t? "


    He originally thought that Yun Ruoleng would hesitate for a moment like before and nod his head to agree. She smiled faintly: "I''m sorry big sister, this is a matter for His Highness, Leng Er does not dare to meddle in it."


    "You!" This was the first time she pleaded with this little b * tch! She was about to lose all her face, but she refused without mercy!


    Yun Yueyu was so angry that his face turned white, but Yun Ruoleng pretended to not understand and raised his head: "What''s wrong with elder sister? But not well? I can see that your face is a little abnormal. Do you need to find a doctor to have a look? "


    "¡­" No, this little b * tch could very well be favored by the Regent. For the sake of His Highness, she had to endure!


    Yun Yueyu squeezed out a smile, "No need, I was indeed feeling a little uncomfortable just now, but I feel a lot better now, thank you sister for your concern."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, and decided to play with her for a while, "Is there anything else elder sister wants?"

 C28

    The meaning of Yun Ruoleng''s words was, if there was nothing else, he could leave.


    Yun Yueyu pretended not to understand her meaning, and actually walked over and held her hand, and said affectionately: "Thinking about it carefully, little sister seemed to have misunderstood me before. Because I was busy doing this, I did not help my sister. But my sister believes that our sisterhood hasn''t changed, so Leng Er can still forgive her, right? "


    Yun Ruoleng had to admit that Yun Yueyu''s acting skills were not bad. If she was a passerby, she would have been tricked. No wonder the original owner was bullied by her and had never done anything.


    She cleared her throat twice with a gentle and docile expression. "This ¡­"


    Yun Yueyu was a little anxious: "What, you still don''t want to forgive me?"


    "What did sister say?" Yun Ruoleng laughed twice and said, "Big sister is forever grateful to be able to come and visit little sister. It''s just that my sister doesn''t have anything that''s worth watching over. If elder sister wants to strangle Your Highness, then you can naturally do your best, and won''t have to look for your sister here. "


    She was not stupid. Although she really wanted to pretend to be a weak and easily bullied little white flower and act like a pig to eat the tiger, she had already torn it with the First Madam once back in the flower garden. He might as well show his fangs and claws to tell her that he wasn''t someone easy to bully and that he shouldn''t allow so many things to happen.


    Yun Yueyu''s face changed, but he still forced out a smile and changed the topic: "To be honest, I still have one thing to tell you, and that is that father wanted to find my sister, which is why he sent me to notify you. "If little sister is fine, then let''s go to the main hall."


    Yun Ruoleng squinted at her for two seconds, then shifted his gaze away and said: "I got it, thank you sister for telling me."


    This Yun Yueyu wasn''t as stupid as she thought. He at least knew how to conceal his emotions, and it was probably because he realized that he wasn''t the same Yun Ruoleng as before that made his guard up. Otherwise, if Yun Ruoleng had treated her like this before, he would have been skinned alive by now.


    "Big sister, are you still not leaving?" Seeing that Yun Yueyu had no intention to leave, Yun Ruoleng unrestrainedly ordered her to leave.


    Yun Yueyu was a bit embarrassed, but he calmed himself down and said, "Father wants me to go with you, sister."


    Looking at her expression, Yun Ruoleng knew that things were not that simple. It seemed that this Yun Yueyu was going to play some tricks again. But... Why would she be afraid? She pursed her lips, her voice gentle and pleasant to listen to. "Then I''ll go with sister."


    Yun Yueyu seemed to heave a sigh of relief. Faint worry could be seen in those peach red eyes as they pulled at her, unwilling to let her leave. Yun Ruoleng was both angry and amused. He patted her shoulders to signal her not to worry, and said to Yun Yueyu: "Let''s go now?"


    "It''s naturally for the best if little sister goes earlier." Yun Yueyu immediately said, "Let''s go."


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Blossom tightly pursed her lips. In the end, she still couldn''t help but shout out.


    Yun Yueyu suspiciously turned to look at Peach Blossom, then reprimanded: "What kind of slave is this, a servant dares to cause trouble with a servant?"


    Looks like, this Yun Yueyu was really afraid that he would not want to go. Yun Ruoleng found it somewhat funny, "Elder sister, there''s no need to reprimand Peach Blossom. Leng Er knows how to discipline people. "


    "¡­" Yun Yueyu immediately regained her weak look, "I am just afraid that you will be restrained by this lowly bitch ¡­"

 C29

    Peach Blossom was not scared by Yun Yueyu, her eyes immediately turned red.


    Yun Ruoleng patted her back and interrupted her: "Sister, you''re overthinking it."


    She turned her head and softly said to Peach Blossom, "Don''t worry, I have my ways."


    Yun Yueyu could not hear the voice clearly, and asked: "Little Sister ¡­"


    "Let''s go." Yun Ruoleng said calmly.


    Ao Xue Garden was very remote within the Yun Mansion, so as a young miss who had been daintily doted on by her, Yun Yueyu should have come here with a lot of hardships. Seeing Yun Yueyu''s face alternating between red and white, Yun Ruoleng wanted to laugh but was unable to do so. He could only ask, "Big sister didn''t bring a servant?"


    "She ¡­" I told her to wait outside for fear of disturbing my sister. I should be seeing her now. "


    "Oh." Yun Ruoleng casually replied, but he secretly paid attention to every single one of Yun Yueyu''s expression. Although her disguise wasn''t that bad, as a painter, she had studied the capturing of human figures as a teenager. She had even written her graduation thesis on emotions and expressions, so it was very easy to see that she had a little Jiu Jiu in her heart.


    That trace of ruthlessness, that cunning, to say that he didn''t do anything bad, Yun Ruoleng really couldn''t believe it.


    A maidservant dressed in pink hurriedly ran over from the distance. Although she didn''t have a good appearance, she looked extremely vicious. Yun Ruoleng squinted his eyes, a trace of nervousness flashed past the man''s eyes: "I''ve seen Little ¡­ Young miss, Seventh Miss! "


    Yun Yueyu was separated by a distance, how could she clearly see the person''s appearance? She only introduced him: "This is my personal servant Rui Ling, I''m afraid this is my first time seeing her, right?"


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng smirked, "Of course it''s not the first time."


    The name Rui Ling was very familiar to her. Listening to Peach Red''s words, this Rui Ling could be considered to be one of the most capable Yun Yueyu ever possessed. Back then, he had mistreated the original owner quite a few times.


    Furthermore, Yun Ruoleng still had an initial impression of her, so wasn''t this the one who whipped her when she just passed through? He actually delivered himself to his doorstep? She was simply unable to describe it. Was Yun Yueyu really stupid or did he do it on purpose?


    The smile on Yun Yueyu''s lips stiffened, he even had the urge to slap that Rui Ling to death.


    Rui Ling was indeed her personal maid, but this was not Rui Ling! Why was Mo Shu here? Didn''t she just call for Rui-Ling?


    "¡­" Yun Yueyu took a deep breath and hurriedly said, "Quickly apologize to Seventh Miss!"


    The scene immediately became quiet. Yun Ruoleng looked at her, unperturbed. The speed at which he was changing his face was really fast. When it was time for him to turn hostile, he would turn hostile!


    Mo Shu started to cower, this made him even more afraid. He lost his stance of beating people up and his legs went weak. He kneeled down and kowtowed, "Seventh Miss, this servant was wrong. Please forgive this servant! "Please forgive this servant ¡­"


    Yun Yueyu forced a smile, "Little Sister, look at this ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng smiled but did not speak. She steeled her heart, pointed at Mo Shu and cursed, "You little b * tch, you actually dare to whip Seventh Sister behind my back. See how I''ll punish you when I get back!"


    "¡­" This Yun Yueyu, she really put in a lot of effort in order to get a good impression of him. She doesn''t even want to be a lady of a noble family, yet she still lied to her conscience. Tsk tsk tsk tsk! Yun Ruoleng secretly cursed at her, and continued to look at her with a slight smile.


    Mo Shuang was about to bleed, and pleaded: "This servant doesn''t dare! Your servant doesn''t dare! I beg Seventh Miss to forgive me ¡­ "

 C30

    A lackey was still a lackey after all. If something unexpected happened, he would be the first to be pulled out as a scapegoat. Yun Ruoleng quietly watched as they bit each other for a long time, then lowered his head in a merciful gesture, "Forget it, I will not pursue the matters of the past."


    Mo Shu was overjoyed, thanking Zhang Xuan profusely. Yun Ruoleng did not bother to look at her, and said to Yun Yueyu: "Didn''t father say that we need to go earlier? If we waste so much time here, I''m afraid Father will blame us for it. "


    "It''s all because of this hoof." Yun Yueyu thought that he really had to increase his speed. Yun Ruoleng, aren''t you very arrogant? I will sharpen your spirit today!


    The two of them walked to the side of the lotus pond in the back garden of the Yun Palace. Yun Yueyu suddenly stopped in his steps, looked at the lotus flower and said, "Those flowers are so beautiful."


    At this moment, it was the lotus flower season. When it bloomed, it was indeed exceptionally beautiful. Yun Ruoleng said with a smile that was not a smile, "That''s right."


    "¡­" Yun Yueyu waited for a long time, but he did not have the time to wait for the follow-up, so he had to wait for a few words to urge them to leave. Why is this Yun Ruoleng so smart? If it was in normal times, wouldn''t he have volunteered to pluck a shore?


    It was fortunate that Yun Ruoleng did not know what she was thinking. If he did, he would probably laugh himself to death. So how many saints does the original owner have to cause Yun Yueyu to underestimate his enemy?


    Yun Yueyu could no longer hold it in, and asked: "Does little sister like it?"


    "Yes, very beautiful." Yun Ruoleng pretended to look forward to it, "Sister, can you help me pick one?"


    "¡­" Yun Yueyu was a little confused. Why was this completely different from what he thought? The opposing army, ah, this is!


    "Ah ¡­" "This ¡­" Yun Yueyu stammered for a while before he managed to find a way down, "Big sister doesn''t know how to swim, if I fall down ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to have understood something, and said: "Then forget it, big sister, let''s go to the business hall."


    "¡­" His plan had failed! Yun Yueyu bit her lower lip, but she still lost her composure and said, "Little sister ¡­ Can you help big sister pick one? "


    He actually asked for it? As expected, she had still underestimated the thickness of Yun Yueyu''s skin ¡­ Yun Ruoleng looked troubled: "But, I don''t know how to use water either."


    Now, she could roughly guess what Yun Yueyu wanted to do. Could it be that the original owner''s impression of her was too little, so she decided to use such a clumsy method to lure her into the water? Aren''t you underestimating her!


    Yun Ruoleng pretended to sigh regretfully: "If elder sister really likes it, why not let this servant girl go?"


    Yun Yueyu never thought that Yun Ruoleng would push a servant out, and her delicate face immediately darkened: "Fine, just a flower to the left or right, that''s all."


    "How can that be?" Yun Ruoleng did not agree. He glanced at Mo Shu who was kneeling on the ground, a cold look flashed past his eyes, but his face still looked as if he was thinking of Yun Yueyu, "Since big sister likes it, she has to take it."


    After he finished speaking, Yun Ruoleng looked at Mo Caiji and instructed, "Hurry and pick the flowers for big sister!"


    Mo Shu looked at Yun Yueyu with a bitter face and knelt down with a troubled expression, begging for mercy: "Eldest Miss, this servant, this servant, this servant, does not know water too ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but laugh in his heart, thinking that this master and servant pair had a very good relationship. So that''s all it was.


    With a sneer on his face, Yun Ruoleng immediately took two steps forward and said, "I remember that you looked like you knew how to use water."


    These words hinted at her going against him. Mo Shu clenched his hands and looked at Yun Yueyu.

 C31

    Seeing Yun Yueyu''s gaze glance at Yun Ruoleng, and nodding slightly, Mo Shu immediately understood and let out a sneer.


    When he went around to Yun Ruoleng''s side, Mo Shu pretended to slip and pounce towards Yun Yueyu. However, halfway through, he suddenly felt a force pushing him down in Yun Yueyu''s direction.


    Under Yun Yueyu''s panicking gaze, the two of them fell onto the shore and slipped into the water with a splash.


    "Aiya." Yun Ruoleng gasped in surprise and hurried over. His gaze sweeping across the shore, only to find that there was a thin layer of moss growing. No matter who stepped on it, they would only be able to fall into the pond.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered. This time, they were asking for trouble.


    "Help! Help! " Mo Shu shouted as he hugged Yun Yueyu below. Just as his hands touched the shore, he slid down due to the moss, causing Yun Yueyu to take a few gulps of water.


    "Useless thing!" On the other hand, Yun Yueyu still had the strength to scold others, but after being carried away and drank a mouthful, she angrily pushed Mo Shu away, and though she herself got stuck on the shore, she could not get up.


    At this moment, the servants who were attracted by the commotion immediately panicked. The one in the pool was the most favoured young miss! All of a sudden, angry curses and discussions sounded from the side.


    A bamboo stick was stretched out in front of Yun Yueyu and Mo Shu. Because he was holding his young miss, Mo Shu did not have much strength left, and the hand that was holding the bamboo stick kept on slipping away from time to time. Seeing that, Yun Yueyu who had drank a lot of water angrily pushed her away, and took the chance to stomp on her stomach. He grabbed onto the bamboo pole, and pulled her ashore from another place.


    "Eldest Miss, Eldest Miss, are you alright?"


    "Go get a doctor!"


    For a moment, everyone encircled Yun Yueyu, fighting to be the first to send her off. No one cared about it at all, because after being kicked by Yun Yueyu, Mo Shu struggled for a while before coming back to his senses.


    "Save ¡­" "Save me ¡­" Mo Shuo could no longer shout. He could only watch in despair as the people left the shore, making their final struggles without strength.


    Suddenly, a bamboo pole appeared in front of her. Mo Shu''s eyes lit up, and he instantly reached out and grabbed onto the bamboo pole. Raising his head, he saw Seventh Miss Yun Ruoleng standing at the shore, looking at her with a cold expression.


    "Not coming up?" Yun Ruoleng''s face revealed impatience, he acted as if he was about to let go of the bamboo pole.


    "No, no, no." Mo Shu immediately grabbed onto the bamboo pole and climbed onto the shore. His expression was complex as he said, "Thank you, Seventh Miss."


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head, and left without saying a word, leaving Mo Shu quietly looking at her back, and then left.


    Yun Ruoleng who was heading to the hall by himself laughed, the master and servant pair''s thoughts, were most likely divided right?


    Once he arrived at the business hall, Yun Ruoleng saw the group of middle-aged men sitting with his father as the leader. Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but narrow his eyes and take a few steps forward, "Your daughter greets father."


    Yun Shicheng nodded, his gaze sweeping behind her, and slightly frowned: "Why isn''t your Big Sis here?"


    "Big Sis fell into the water and is currently seeing a doctor." Yun Ruoleng calmly replied.


    "What''s going on? Didn''t I tell her to call you over, why did you fall into the water? " Yun Shicheng frowned even more and asked. It seemed like he already wanted to go over to see Yun Yueyu.


    A cold light flashed at the bottom of Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, but she lowered her eyebrows and said, "Big Sis saw that lotus flower in the pond looked pretty and I wanted to pick one, so ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng did not finish his sentence, but Yun Shicheng and the other two middle aged men understood, and their faces turned ugly. He looked at Yun Ruoleng, but in the end, Yun Shicheng did not go over to look. Instead, he only smiled and introduced the few middle aged men sitting beside him one by one.


    It was only then that Yun Ruoleng realized that the person sitting on the chair was her second and third uncle.


    He couldn''t help but laugh in his heart. Looking at Yun Shicheng''s overall performance today, after so many years had passed, Yun Ruoleng actually didn''t even know about these uncles of his.


    "Leng Er, why did the Regent bring you out?" Yun Shicheng walked in circles for a long time before finally asking a proper question. His eyes were fixated on Yun Ruoleng.


    Second Uncle and Third Uncle also heard this and looked over with concerned expressions.


    Lowering his eyes, Yun Ruoleng gave a slight smile, bowed, and said, "Father, His Highness did not seek me out to say anything, it''s just ¡­" Yun Ruoleng glanced at the two uncles beside him, and pursed his lips without saying a word.


    Second Uncle immediately laughed: "Leng Er has something to say, just say it, we are family." Hearing this, Third Uncle also laughed out loud, but there was a bit of awkwardness on his face.


    Yun Shicheng did not stop him, and since Yun Ruoleng did not mind, he opened his mouth and said: "Father, Your Highness just took your daughter out to walk around, and gossiped about such things as Big Sister''s dignified and elegant manner, and Your Highness seems to be in a good mood."


    "Good, good, good." Glancing sideways at Second Uncle and Third Uncle, Yun Shicheng suddenly smiled to the point where his eyes had become slits. He couldn''t help but size up this previously unimportant daughter of his, and instructed, "Rest well after you return. You can look for your mother for anything that''s missing in the room."


    Take? Yun Ruoleng sneered, would that girl just give it to him?


    Of course, Yun Ruoleng only thought this in his heart, but his expression was one of joy, and he replied: "Thank you, Father."


    After exiting the discussion hall, how could Yun Ruoleng still have a smile on his face? If not for Jun Qingshang''s words today, I''m afraid that I will only be able to stay in that crappy courtyard for the rest of my life!


    Jun Qingshang, it looks like I have to thank you!


    This was the first time she painted since ancient times. Although she had already mastered painting with ease, this Ancient Alchemy Book was a little different. She still needed to practice it a little.


    Holding her breath and tapping lightly with her finger, a mountain and river diagram slowly formed. Peach Blossom who was walking over took one look and her eyes immediately lit up, "Miss, this painting is really too beautiful. It looks like it''s real."


    Yun Ruoleng ignored her, and continued to draw on the paper with the brush in his hand. After an unknown amount of time, Yun Ruoleng finally finished writing.


    "Take it out and dry it." Yun Ruoleng smiled, he was extremely satisfied with the painting.


    However, the admiration in Peach Blossom''s eyes slowly turned into doubt. After receiving the painting, she couldn''t help but ask after a moment of hesitation, "Miss, when did you learn to draw?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s hand that was collecting the items stiffened, his face changed slightly. Did he really forget about this matter?

 C32

    How could an unpampered young lady paint so well?


    Peach Blossom saw that Yun Ruoleng was lost in thought, and thought that she had asked something she shouldn''t have. "Putong" she kneeled on the ground: "This servant knows my wrongs, please forgive me."


    "Stand up!" Yun Ruoleng sighed, "No one is allowed to talk about this. If anyone asks, just say that it was painted by someone else."


    "Yes." Although she was still confused, Peach Blossom did not dare to ask. She quickly placed the painting under the eaves of the house at the back of the yard to dry it.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned on a small carriage and was a little upset. Why did he come back just now to seek death? It was better now. If he didn''t give this servant a proper explanation, she might fall sick from holding her breath.


    Yun Ruoleng thought left and right, not knowing that a black figure had quietly left from the outside.


    "Master ¡­" An Yue who was sent to monitor Yun Ruoleng suddenly appeared in front of him, looking extremely excited.


    With a slight frown, Jun Qingshang asked: "What makes you so happy?"


    "Master, look." An Yue took out a piece of paper from his chest pocket and handed it over to Jun Qingshang as if he was offering a treasure, "This is Seventh Miss Yun''s painting."


    "Are you free too?" Jun Qingshang''s eyes did not waver, what could an unfavoured girl draw?


    "Mistress will know when she sees it." An Yue still did not give up, and opened up the drawing paper. A magnificent map of the Mountains and Rivers suddenly appeared in front of Jun Qingshang, causing him to be stunned.


    Seeing that his master was in a daze, An Yue did not dare to disturb Jun Qingshang. After a while, Jun Qingshang suddenly laughed: "Return it."


    "Yes." An Yue replied and then disappeared.


    At the same time, the smile on Jun Qingshang''s face grew wider. It seems like that little wild cat''s secret was not even a little bit.


    Yun Ruoleng, just how many secrets do you have waiting for me to investigate? This King looks forward to tearing off your disguise layer by layer to see what kind of wild cat you are.


    In the cabin, she had finished drying and returned. Seeing her young miss support her head up as she fell asleep, she frowned and walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and gently called out: "Young miss, it''s time to eat."


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng nodded.


    Peach Blossom quickly brought in some food and called out with a smile, "Miss, the lunch today was brought by the kitchen. It''s a lot better than before, at least there''s meat. Miss should make up for it when you grow up."


    "Meat?" Yun Ruoleng''s face changed. Who would be so kind as to give her meat to eat?


    "That''s right!" Peach Red smilingly placed the thing on the table and reached out to pick up a piece of meat for Yun Ruoleng. She saw that her young miss had suddenly pulled the silver hairpin from her head and inserted it into the meat, and when she pulled it out, there was nothing wrong with it. She frowned: "Go and feed a piece of meat to the wild cat at the back of the kitchen.


    Peach Blossom''s heart tightened. "Could it be ¡­"


    "Hurry up." Yun Ruoleng ordered coldly.


    Peach Blossom finally felt reassured. She picked up a piece of meat with her chopsticks and ran towards the backyard. After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, she returned with a dark face. When Yun Ruoleng saw this, he did not wait for Peach Blossom''s report and said: "Take it out and pour it out. Don''t use any of the things that the big kitchen has sent over."


    Peach Blossom wisely nodded her head. Even if her young miss hadn''t said so, she wouldn''t have taken the food from the kitchen!


    Yun Ruoleng sat in front of the table with an ashen face. If he had guessed correctly, this poison would not take one''s life, but it would cause others to go insane, since the mother and daughter did not dare take his life. They could not offend the Regent, because in their eyes, the Regent loved her.


    After Peach Red finished preparing the food, she returned to Yun Ruoleng''s side. She pouted her lips and looked at Yun Ruoleng in pain: "Miss, what should we do about lunch?"


    "Just eat whatever is in the kitchen." Yun Ruoleng indifferently swept a glance at Peach Blossom, and smiled as he comforted her, "It''s fine, just pay attention to it in the future. "The painting should be done by now. Bring it in and frame it. I''ll go out the door in the afternoon."


    "Yes." Peach Blossom didn''t ask why, but turned around and walked towards the backyard.


    At this moment, the person hiding in the treetop was scared out of his wits. Luckily, he was able to return the speed just now, or else he would have been caught.


    After Peach Blossom brought the things back into her room, she was chased out by Yun Ruoleng. She did not know how long Yun Ruoleng played around inside, but the moment she opened the door, she excitedly looked at Yun Ruoleng who was holding onto her scroll and asked, "Miss, are you done?"


    "Take care of the yard. I''ll be back soon." Yun Ruoleng replied Peach Blossom and walked out of the Academy.


    Seeing this, Peach Blossom became a little anxious and hurriedly stopped her. "Miss, you''re out again in the middle of the day. If someone saw you, it might cause trouble again."


    Frowning, just as Yun Ruoleng wanted to speak, he heard footsteps coming from the entrance of the courtyard, he immediately placed the painting into Peach Blossom Hands, and ordered: "Put it away."


    Peach Red was stunned for a second. Then, with a righteous nod of her head, she turned around and ran into the room.


    At this moment, Yun Qingyao walked in wearing a light yellow flowing immortal dress. Seeing Yun Ruoleng standing under the sun and looking at her from afar, the corner of her mouth slightly raised, and she gently smiled. "Why is little sister standing under the sun?"


    Yun Ruoleng was startled for a moment, but immediately welcomed her with a smile. His gaze wandered over her body, and the smile on his face became even more obvious: "Big sister is really beautiful today."


    "Girl, are you trying to say that my clothes are good?" Yun Qingyao laughed as he shook his head, as though he was teasing Su Yun.


    ''s eyes flashed, and her heart secretly let out a sigh of relief. She smiled and said: "Big sister''s natural beauty is hard to abandon, she''ll look good wearing anything."


    With a slight frown, Yun Qingyao kept having the feeling that his little sister had changed, but he couldn''t say what. He reached out and pulled Yun Ruoleng towards the shade tree: "Big sis can''t help you too much, but big sis hopes that your future life will be a little easier."


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart slightly quivered. Looking at the loneliness that flashed past Yun Qingyao''s eyes, he could not help but frown: "Big sister should fight for more. The Regent has yet to state which witch he is going to marry, so elder sister naturally has a chance. Your Highness and I are merely acquaintances who have nodded our heads. "


    "Little sister ¡­" Yun Qingyao was slightly startled, was her performance that obvious?


    "If elder sister can become the regent''s consort, then she won''t be bullied anymore." Yun Ruoleng held onto her wrist and said softly, "To be honest, little sister is not used to marrying an aristocrat with authority. She has a deep family background and is very tired."


    "You little girl!" Yun Qingyao did not expect Yun Ruoleng to say that, and be so direct, but she knew her situation, and quickly looked around at her surroundings, and saw that no one was looking at her, and said softly: "It''s fine if you say that to me, but do not say it again in the future."

 C33

    Surprised, Yun Ruoleng immediately understood after a thought.


    The First Madam was not a good person to begin with. Adding to that, Yun Qingyao was not her biological daughter, and had a power that was even purer than her biological daughter''s cultivation, according to her jealous personality, Yun Qingyao''s days must not be too good.


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng replied softly, and no longer talked about this topic.


    After sitting for a while, seeing that Yun Ruoleng was not interested, Yun Qingyao finally sighed and decided to take his leave. However, he repeatedly reminded Yun Ruoleng before he left that he should not offend Yun Yueyu anymore. However, Yun Ruoleng did not treat it as a good word, after all, how could someone like Yun Yueyu not provoke her, and she let you off just like that?


    After Yun Qingyao left, Peach Red walked out carrying the painting, her expression somewhat panicked: "Miss, do you really want to go out?"


    "Of course!" Yun Ruoleng reached out to grab the painting, and knocked on Peach Blossom''s head, then helplessly sighed: "If I don''t sell it to you, where would I get the money to eat?"


    What he said seemed to make a lot of sense. Peach Blossom hesitated for a moment, but her eyes continued to stare at the portrait. She said with some heartache, "Miss''s drawing is so beautiful. Are you just going to sell it like that?"


    "Do you have the heart to starve your young lady?" Yun Ruoleng asked with a smile.


    "This ¡­" Peach Red hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say. At that moment, she was so anxious that her face turned red.


    Seeing Peach Blossom''s cute eyes, Yun Ruoleng only felt dismal in his heart. Patting her head, he said: "Hurry up and help me get my makeup ready, just like yesterday, help me find a suitable place to go to the auction. "Right, speak clearly."


    But Peach Blossom is really difficult! He was afraid that the eldest young miss would come and cause trouble after the young miss left. If the eldest young miss found out that the young lady was out on her own, it would be the end of her life.


    Yun Ruoleng did not care about Peach Blossom''s look of hesitation as he went back to his room to change her clothes. This time, she was smarter and used some of the yellow mud on her face to hide her original appearance.


    Seeing her young miss'' actions, Peach Blossom became even more confused. "Young miss, why are you wasting your face like this?"


    "One black cover, one white cover." Yun Ruoleng ruffled his black hair and blinked his eyes in an extremely good mood.


    "¡­" Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng''s face that she could not bear to see, and shrugged her shoulders helplessly.


    "Don''t let anyone in until I''m back." Seeing that Peach Blossom was about to speak, he hurriedly said, "If you can''t stop me, just tell me that I''m not here."


    "But ¡­"


    "Just do as I say." Yun Ruoleng immediately interrupted Peach Blossom''s words and patted her shoulder in consolation. Then, he turned around and left.


    After using the jade tablet to smoothly exit the palace, Yun Ruoleng walked toward the direction of the Peach Blossom Finger.


    The reason Yun Ruoleng wanted to sell it here was because this was also the most beloved place among all the literary magicians. Furthermore, all the literary magicians here were the rich young masters and masters of rich families.


    "Halt!" Outside the Ying Feng Auction House, two robust guards stopped Yun Ruoleng from entering, and stared at her fiercely: "What are you doing?"


    "Brothers, isn''t this the auction?" Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned, as he swept his eyes over the golden-bright and dazzling signboard above his head.


    "Of course!"


    "Then I am here to auction, is that not right?" Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at the two of them, thinking to himself, what a useless person!


    "Auction?" The two of them looked at each other and immediately started laughing, "You little rascal, you''re dressed in shabby clothes and you still want to bid for things!? This is so funny. "


    "Go!" Go! Go! Don''t block the path of noble people! "


    Yun Ruoleng''s face slightly sunk, her eyebrows unconsciously knitted, and remained indifferent to the two''s ridicule.


    "Get out of here!" One of the big sized man suddenly took out a sword from his waist and placed it horizontally in front of Yun Ruoleng, he said fiercely: "You want to pick a fight, right?"


    "May I know where have I offended the two of you?" The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, the smile on his face gradually became deeper, but the smile did not reach his eyes, "Or could it be that Ying Feng Auction House is a place to bully others?"


    It was clearly a casual sentence, but the two robust bodyguards subconsciously took a step back. When they realized what was going on, they both glared at Yun Ruoleng in embarrassment. If you continue to speak like that, this grandpa will throw you out! "


    "Is what I said wrong?" Yun Ruoleng did not care about his threat and scoffed, "If that''s not the case, then why are you two blocking me outside because of my simple clothes? And why did you let me leave? "This is clearly bullying!"


    "What''s going on?" Just as the two sides were discussing endlessly, a powerful voice broke the silence between the two.


    When the two guards saw him, they cupped their fists and greeted him, "Manager."


    Yun Ruoleng sized up the person who came over, his pupils slightly contracted, this old man does not look simple at all.


    However, when Yun Ruoleng was sizing up Ying Feng''s manager, he was also sizing up her. After their gazes met, a battle of aura silently started, with neither side giving in.


    "Hahaha." Chief Steward Ying Feng raised his head and laughed, "What is your name, young master?"


    "His surname is Leng, and he has the word Yun." Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, and said neither humble nor arrogant. In that short moment, she felt that this old man was rather interesting.


    "Leng Yun." Chief Steward Ying Feng stroked his white beard, chewing on the words before nodding his head, "My subordinate is disrespectful to young master Leng, I hope that young master will forgive me."


    "They are just two arrogant servants, there is no need for the supervisor to apologize to me." Yun Ruoleng glanced at the two guards in disdain and chuckled, "The supervisor is here, this one wants to look for something, is it convenient?"


    At first, Chief Steward Ying Feng wouldn''t casually show them off, but the guard at the entrance was rude first, and this young master''s demeanor was not ordinary either. Chief Steward Ying Feng finally smiled and said, "Follow me."


    After Yun Ruoleng followed the manager, the two guards at the entrance were quickly replaced. The dispute from before did not have much of an impact on Ying Feng Auction House.


    Following the manager into the reception room, Yun Ruoleng did not waste any words, and directly handed the wrapped painting over to the manager, and laughed: "I would like to trouble you to set the price for me."


    At first, the manager thought it was some famous person''s painting, but when he saw the signature, he nearly jumped up and down. "Are you kidding me?"


    "Don''t be angry yet." Yun Ruoleng glanced at the manager and said indifferently, "It won''t be too late to reject after you finish looking at the painting."


    Seeing that this Leng Yun wasn''t a reckless person, the manager coldly snorted and half-heartedly lowered his head to take a look. In the end, his eyes stared straight ahead as he bent over the table to take a look.

 C34

    Just as the steward was deep in thought, Yun Ruoleng smiled and put the painting away.


    The manager was startled, then reacted and looked at Yun Ruoleng with slight anger: "What are you doing?" [This fellow is asking for a beating. Just a moment ago, he was showing me that he took in the painting the moment he figured out something else. He must be doing it on purpose!]


    "What does the supervisor think?" Yun Ruoleng directly ignored the other party''s anger and asked with a smile, "How much is it worth?"


    "Humph!" The supervisor turned his head around. He didn''t want to talk to this stingy brat right now.


    Seeing that, Yun Ruoleng laughed in his heart, but he frowned on the surface and sighed: "In that case, what a pity."


    After saying that, Yun Ruoleng extended his hand and was about to tear the painting. The manager became anxious and quickly pulled the painting over, but after carefully looking at it, he found that there were no creases, so he asked: "Did you really draw this painting?"


    "Naturally." Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, swept a glance at the painting that the steward was unwilling to let go, and leisurely asked: "What does the steward mean by this?"


    The supervisor was immediately angered. "Such a good painting can be torn apart just like that. It doesn''t respect art at all."


    "¡­" This scene seemed to have happened rather quickly? Yun Ruoleng stared at the manager innocently, "Didn''t you say you didn''t like him? There''s no point in keeping such bad things. "


    The supervisor opened his mouth to speak, but after thinking about his previous attitude, he shut it again. After a long while, he arrogantly snorted, "Fifty percent."


    "Three to seven." Yun Ruoleng slightly smiled, his eyes not leaving the manager''s eyes as he emphasized the details, "Three against seven for you."


    "Four or six." The manager glanced at Yun Ruoleng, then turned his head proudly.


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows slightly knitted, as though he was thinking about something difficult, and said halfway: "Alright, I''ll wait here for your good news."


    "Deal!" The manager carefully hugged the painting and casually said, "How can I see how this painting is sold here? I might as well go to the scene. "


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, and looked at the manager with a smile that was not a smile, and did not speak for a long time.


    The steward was surprised for a moment and then understood immediately. He snorted and said, "Come with me."


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng stand up and follow the manager. Although the manager was proud, she was really good to Yun Ruoleng, so he arranged a VIP room on the second floor for her. She could clearly see the auction place, but this spot was not very eye-catching.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze swept across the room upstairs that was carved with a simple and generous room. His eyes flashed, and he asked softly: "Manager, where is that?"


    Following Yun Ruoleng''s line of sight, the manager shook his head and said: "Mind your own business."


    Nodding his head, Yun Ruoleng did not continue asking, but his eyes were fixed on the place, at the side of the door where his clothes were fluttering, as though he was familiar with the place.


    Although there were no good things being auctioned today, there were actually quite a few people who had come. The ordinary seats on the first floor were all filled, and more than half of the people in the VIP room on the second floor were also seated, so it was obvious that they were either tycoons or tycoons.


    Yun Ruoleng supported his head as he thought about something, but felt that there was a gaze that seemed to be staring at him, so he couldn''t help but crease his eyebrows.


    In a room on the third floor, a man wearing a silver mask was sitting on a chair, quietly sipping a cup of tea. The door was knocked at this moment. The man''s voice was like spring water, "Come in."


    "Mistress." The person who entered the room was none other than the manager who was carrying the painting. The overweeningly arrogant manager immediately lost his composure in front of the man and said respectfully, "This subordinate has just received a painting. This subordinate has never seen this type of painting before. It can be said to be absolutely beautiful."


    As the manager spoke, he opened the painting and handed it to the man. He couldn''t help but exclaim, "I''m afraid this painting is something that has never been seen before or since."


    The man only calmly glanced at it, then waved his hand and said, "This sovereign has seen it. Since you''ve already accepted it, then go sell it."


    "Mistress won''t stay?" The supervisor was a little surprised. Didn''t his master like to leave good things behind the most in the past? If he didn''t like it, wouldn''t he take it out to auction? Yet now, he actually allowed her to sell such a good painting?


    "No need." The man waved his hand, indicating that the manager could leave.


    Seeing this, the steward could only leave the room with the painting. At this moment, the corner of the man''s mouth slightly raised as an undetectable light flashed across his eyes. He didn''t expect that the little wild cat would sell this painting here. It was really clever.


    Yun Ruoleng did not notice the owner of the gaze and frowned in anger. He lowered his head and continued to look at the auction.


    The auction started with a painting, this painting was not anyone else''s, it just so happened to be the one Yun Ruoleng brought over.


    The emcee was an extremely enchanting woman. She wore a fiery-red long dress with a red veil over it, revealing her sexy figure. The moment she appeared on stage, without saying anything, the atmosphere of the scene was immediately stirred up.


    The host was actually having trouble holding the painting. After all, it wasn''t something made by an expert. She was afraid that if it didn''t sell, it would become the first in history to fail in the auction, so the host prepared a different auction.


    "Everyone, thank you for coming to participate in today''s auction at Ying Feng Auction House. Today, the first item we are going to auction is a map of the world." The emcee let the two beautiful girls spread out the painting and walked around the crowd, then said, "Although this painting isn''t painted by a famous artist, this painting has its own unique style, making it very colorful ¡­"


    "What price?" Among the people looking at the painting, someone suddenly interrupted the host''s words.


    The master of ceremonies smiled sweetly and compared the prices: "For a thousand taels of silver, each bid must exceed fifty taels."


    "I bid 1100 taels!"


    "One thousand two hundred taels!"


    "One thousand and three hundred!"


    "Three thousand!"


    "Three thousand taels of silver, is there anything else I should ask for?" The host didn''t think that the painting would increase so much. He felt very lucky.


    "Four thousand!"


    "Four thousand!" The host excitedly shouted: "Is there anyone higher? Four thousand two hundred! 4200 times! Four thousand two hundred times! "Deal!" The host set the price and let out a sigh of relief.


    Yun Ruoleng saw that the painting had been sold, and naturally lost all interest in looking at other things. After all, some things could not be bought with the money he had. In addition to that faintly discernable gaze, Yun Ruoleng''s entire body tensed up as he vigilantly looked in one direction.


    The manager quickly brought the money over. Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s vigilant look, he frowned and followed her gaze, feeling startled!

 C35

    Isn''t that where the third floor owner stayed? Did this kid discover Master?


    But looking at her nervous expression, it didn''t seem like she was.


    "Manager!"


    "Huh?" The steward was distracted and did not notice Yun Ruoleng''s expression. Being yelled like that, he asked in shock, "What''s wrong?"


    "Cough, cough, it''s time to go back!" Yun Ruoleng felt that he had to leave this place quickly. Ever since he had teleported here, Yun Ruoleng had believed in his intuition.


    "This is for you." The manager heard and nodded his head, he handed over the few silver bills in his hand to Yun Ruoleng and sighed: "I never thought that Young Master would actually sell his paintings to this number."


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, but then there was a smile in his eyes: "Manager is too kind."


    "Same here." The manager smiled and stuffed a few silver bills into Yun Ruoleng''s hands, saying, "I said four or six points, if there''s a painting in the future, just bring it over."


    "Of course." Yun Ruoleng stuffed the silver notes into his pocket and cupped his hands to the manager, "Senior, I''ll have to trouble you in the future."


    From the manager to the senior, the manager was very satisfied and treated Yun Ruoleng much better.


    When Yun Ruoleng came out of the Ying Feng Auction House with the money in his arms, the sky was already dark, the streets were lit up with lanterns and lanterns. After Yun Ruoleng bought all the things he needed from a brush and ink shop, he returned to the Ao Xue Yuan School satisfied.


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng had returned, Peach Blossom finally relaxed. "Miss, please quickly change your clothes.


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng gave the thing in his hand to Peach Blossom, then turned and entered his room.


    When Peach Blossom saw this, she quickly followed. "Does young miss have any gains today?"


    "Of course." Yun Ruoleng took out a few silver notes from his bosom, and said while beaming, "This is what we have gained."


    "So, so many ¡­" Peach Blossom was so shocked that she couldn''t speak. Her young miss was really amazing!


    "If I follow Miss in the future, I''ll be able to enjoy myself to my heart''s content." Yun Ruoleng patted Peach Blossom''s head, maybe because he was in a good mood, his smile became more genuine.


    On this day, Yun Ruoleng went from having nothing to gaining something small, and during this period, Peach Blossom fought in fear for the entire afternoon.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng slept as usual until he woke up naturally. When he woke up, the sun had already risen.


    "Oh, the Seventh Miss is so noble! Why haven''t you gotten up at this time! "


    As Yun Ruoleng sat in front of the mirror, his eyebrows slightly knitted, and he turned around to look at the Peach Blossom behind him. Peach Red immediately put down the grill and said, "This servant will go take a look."


    "No need." The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth was the same, as he said in ridicule and disdain, "We''ll just have to try our best, it''s fine if we continue on."


    "But from the sound, it seems to be the steward of the nanny s by Madam''s side." Peach Red did not dare to disobey Yun Ruoleng''s orders. She held onto a wooden board and helped her fix her makeup as she said, "I''m afraid that she will go back and speak nonsense about Young Miss."


    "Don''t they always like to talk nonsense?" Yun Ruoleng said in disdain, "nanny is standing at the door, do you want to hear my whispered words or are you afraid of coming in?"


    Peach Blossom''s hands froze, and she was terrified. She shouldn''t have heard what she just said, right? This would be troublesome.


    "Hmph, Seventh Miss has so much face. When I get up in the morning, you still need to send this old servant to greet you!"


    "Greetings?" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed slightly, and asked while feigning astonishment. "Didn''t First Madam not care about our people? You still need to go pay your respects? "


    "You ¡­ Humph! Seventh Miss, quickly pack up and follow this old servant over! " nanny snorted coldly and turned around to walk to the door.


    "What should Miss do?" Seeing that the nanny had left, Peach Blossom anxiously said, "They did not come with good intentions!"


    "What are you afraid of!" Yun Ruoleng laughed in disdain. Did this First Madam really think that the current Yun Ruoleng was still the cowardly Yun Ruoleng of the past? Ridiculous.


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Blossom wanted to say something, but hesitated. From time to time, she would glance towards nanny and say softly, "I''ll go find Master in a while."


    "No need." When Yun Shicheng was mentioned, Yun Ruoleng was even more disdainful. Greed for fame and fortune, a man who forgets everything he sees, and even more so a heartless man. How could such a person help him?


    Yun Ruoleng stood up and walked out of the door. Although Peach Blossom was anxious, she did not dare to disobey Yun Ruoleng''s words. She was not an idiot, it was obvious that the First Madam was looking for trouble, but she herself was weak, there was no chance for her to resist, now she could only take one step at a time.


    After following the nanny to First Madam''s Hibiscus Courtyard, Yun Ruoleng subconsciously frowned. She saw First Madam sitting at the seat at the head dressed in royal blue, and beside her hands were Yun Yueyu in her peach colored long gown and Yun Qingyao in her apricot colored long gown. The three of them looked at Yun Ruoleng with different expressions.


    "Seventh Sister finally came." Yun Yueyu laughed and said, but the ridicule in his tone was extremely obvious.


    "Greetings to First Madam." Ignoring Yun Yueyu''s mocking and ridiculing gaze, Yun Ruoleng was slightly fortunate to the First Madam.


    Seeing such a watertight Yun Ruoleng, the First Madam''s face became slightly cold: "Leng Er, even though the Regent is treating you well, but you still have to follow the rules of this mansion, don''t let everyone think that you have no rules."


    The meaning of these words was obviously saying that she was looking down on everyone because of the Regent King. Yun Ruoleng sneered, and raised his head to look at First Madam, "How could it be? First Madam has always been a gentle and magnanimous person in her daughter''s heart, how could her daughter forget about the care and treatment First Madam has given her all these years? "


    Although that was what was said, everyone knew in their hearts whether First Madam was gentle and generous, and how she treated Yun Ruoleng all these years. However, he still had to put on airs. First Madam snorted: "Get up."


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng whose actions were now so different from before, First Madam''s gaze turned fierce. This little bitch had changed, and become smarter. She actually didn''t eat the things she took yesterday.


    Yun Ruoleng retreated to the side of Yun Qingyao, who had not spoken all this while, and sat down. Only then did Yun Qingyao heave a sigh of relief, and his gaze lightly landed on Yun Ruoleng, after seeing her submissive look, he was much more relieved, since First Madam would not make things too difficult for her today.


    A few maidservants carried a tray in, handed the tea over to everyone and then left respectfully. First Madam glanced at Yun Ruoleng and noticed that she did not move while carrying the tea, and was only staring at her, pretended to be surprised: "Why is Leng Er not drinking?"

 C36

    Why not drink tea?


    Yun Ruoleng''s lips tightened into a smile, raised her head, and said: "Leng Er has always been drinking white water, and had never drunk tea before. He doesn''t know what kind of taste it is, so he is both puzzled and pleasantly surprised.


    First Madam was so angry that his mouth twitched, was this slut constantly reminding him to mistreat her?


    However, First Madam was also a very secretive person. In just an instant, she laughed and said, "This is the Emperor''s spring water, fresh and elegant. Have you gotten used to it?"


    Can you eat whatever the enemy gives you? Yes. But how many times did the enemy persuade you to eat what she sent you? Yun Ruoleng only looked at First Madam, but Yun Ruoleng only lowered his head and did not speak.


    Yun Yueyu saw that Yun Ruoleng did not drink, and became anxious: "Are you afraid that we will use the medicine or something? Drinking a cup of tea, who do you think you''re going to show off to?! "


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed, and the hand that was carrying the cup of tea trembled, as a cup of tea was directly poured onto the Persian carpet that First Madam loved the most, with some of it being spilled on the hem of his clothes. Looking at the broken teacups on the ground, Yun Ruoleng immediately pretended to be innocent and apologized, "Your daughter didn''t do it on purpose, it''s just that when she was distracted just now, I think First Madam has a lot of things that she won''t care about, right?"


    First Madam was angered to the point that his face turned green. He looked at the Persian carpet that he finally obtained with much effort and dug out his daughter from within. This time, it was truly a loss for both husband and wife.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled. Even if there was a problem with the tea, now that the teacup had been broken, he would have to start from a new beginning if he wanted to use the medicine. But according to his understanding of the First Madam, he wouldn''t be so stupid as to repeat the same old trick.


    "Mother, little sister''s clothes are all wet. Let her go back first!" Yun Qingyao who had been silent all this while, finally found an opportunity to speak, "If I catch a cold, it would be hard to explain to father."


    Yun Qingyao''s words caused Yun Yueyu''s hatred to instantly shift. She said with a cold smile: "Just this little bit of tea is enough to catch a cold. Third sister, are you underestimating our Seventh Sister''s body too much?"


    "Big sister doesn''t think it''s a big deal since she has the power, but Seventh Sister is just an ordinary person." Yun Qingyao lightly put down the cup in his hand, and slowly said, "How can Seventh Sister compare to Eldest Sister?"


    Hearing the praise in Yun Qingyao''s words, Yun Yueyu''s expression became slightly more relaxed, but he heard Yun Ruoleng say: "Third Sister speaks the truth, my body is weak, and cannot compare to Eldest Sister. That day, His Highness even told me his favorite tonic. From the way he said it, it seems that His Highness should be very fond of delicious food. "


    Initially, Yun Yueyu was still annoyed, but after hearing the news regarding the Regent King, he immediately forgot about what happened just now. First Madam also looked at the two of them and asked with a stern face: "Are you serious?"


    "Seriously." "Since Big Sis and Third Sis are likely to marry Your Highness in the future, we can also consider it a little in this regard." Yun Ruoleng smiled at Yun Qingyao.


    Seeing that, First Madam''s expression changed, and he suddenly waved his hand: "Yao''er, accompany Leng Er back home to change!"


    "Yes." A trace of disappointment flashed across Yun Qingyao''s eyes, he extended his hand to help Yun Yueyu up from the ground, and after blessing the First Madam slightly, he quickly left the great hall.


    After leaving the Hibiscus Courtyard, Yun Ruoleng laughed out loud. "Tomorrow, we should be able to go watch Big Sis cook."


    "How can you talk like that?" Yun Qingyao did not believe that the Regent King said the last sentence. If he had said it, this girl would have hurried him to become a chef a long time ago.


    "It''s not important if Your Highness doesn''t want to say it. What''s important is whether Big Sis will learn skills for the sake of the palace." "Besides, grabbing onto a man''s stomach can catch a man''s heart. Sis, that makes sense." Yun Ruoleng beamed, and casually took out an item, and quietly placed it in Yun Qingyao''s hands.


    "I''ve heard from Peach Blossom that a month''s worth of silver is not much. I usually give half of it to her. Now that she has money, I naturally won''t take it for myself."


    Yun Qingyao was startled, he lowered his head and looked at the banknotes in his hand, and his face immediately darkened: "Where did all this money come from?"


    "Shh." Yun Ruoleng anxiously covered Yun Qingyao''s mouth, and looked around warily: "It''s a long story, let''s go to the Ao Xue Yuan."


    "Alright, but you''d better give me a reasonable explanation!" Yun Qingyao said seriously with a cold face.


    "Good, good, good." Yun Ruoleng quickly pulled Yun Qingyao in the direction of the Ao Xue Yuan.


    When they arrived at Ao Xue Yuan and saw that Yun Qingyao was obviously a little angry, Yun Ruoleng laughed and said, "Elder sister, don''t worry. I didn''t steal nor rob, so I earned this money fairly. Does big sister not believe me? "


    Hearing that, Yun Qingyao''s expression relaxed, but she sighed: "It''s not that big sister doesn''t believe you, it''s just that big sister really doesn''t understand, where did you get it from, is it not from His Highness?" Other than the Regent King, Yun Qingyao couldn''t think of any other way.


    Shaking his head, Yun Ruoleng truthfully replied: "Actually, this money, was obtained from the painting that little sister used."


    "What kind of painting can sell for that much money?" Yun Qingyao obviously did not believe Yun Ruoleng''s words, and his tone became even colder.


    "Elder sister, don''t worry." Yun Ruoleng consoled her, and then looked towards Peach Blossom who was at the side.


    Seeing that, Peach Blossom felt a group of crows flying above her head, but she could not bear the look of anticipation from her young miss, so she could only go forward and tell her about Yun Ruoleng''s painting.


    Yun Qingyao was startled, and sat there for a long time without saying anything. Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, "Big sister, I was wrong. I should have told you this first ¡­"


    "You''re right." Yun Qingyao suddenly said, her expression was gentle, her voice was as soft as spring wind, "This proves that big sister''s Leng Er has grown up."


    Eh? Wasn''t Yun Qingyao curious?


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the woman who had a gentle smile on her face in shock.


    But that shouldn''t be. For a skill like painting, even the original owner''s personal maid Peach Blossom was surprised!


    "Little sister, you just need to know yourself." Big sister only hopes that you have something to tell me first, don''t always be surprised and become scared. Did you hear that? " What Yun Qingyao said was true, and the care in his eyes warmed the hearts of the people.


    "Alright, I''ll listen to sister." Yun Ruoleng immediately laughed.


    Under the sunlight, Yun Ruoleng laughed innocently, with a beautiful smile, Yun Qingyao was stunned for a moment.


    "Sister is so nice to Leng Er." Yun Ruoleng was saying this from the bottom of his heart. After all, in the vast Minister¡¯s Mansion, only this twin sister was someone who would treat him well with all her heart.


    Before he came here, it was this sister who gave him the silver taels to support the original owner. After he came here, this sister would protect him many times. She would feel uneasy if she did not thank him.

 C37

    After sending Yun Qingyao off, Yun Ruoleng told Peach Blossom to prepare the items she bought yesterday.


    Yun Ruoleng felt that he was very, very poor, so he had to make more money from painting. With enough money, he could open a painting exhibition, and with that he would have money, it would continuously pour into his bag.


    Let her conquer the ancients with modern paintings!


    And the person who had been interested in her recently was an ancient person, Jun Qingshang, who was sitting at a table with a black clothed person kneeling below him, reporting to him.


    Jun Qingshang frowned from time to time, and after the black-clothed man finished speaking, he said: "This time, this king will go with you.


    "Yes sir!"


    "Go down." Jun Qingshang waved his hand, his gaze turned towards the window, the brush in his hand suddenly disappeared, followed by a low shout from outside the window.


    Jun Qingshang did not care about the people outside being injured at all, as she spat out cold words: "Why are you still not rolling in?"


    "Mistress." An Yue climbed in from the window, supporting himself with one hand while rubbing his shoulder, he secretly thought about whether he should apply for a different job, to be trained and trained by his master everyday, it must be really tiring!


    "Not good enough." Jun Qingshang''s face was covered in a layer of frost, "If there''s a next time, I''ll directly cripple him."


    "..." "Yes." An Yue shivered. Oh my god! What kind of master did he meet? How brutal.


    "How are things over there today?" Jun Qingshang smiled, his voice still cold.


    An Yue could not help but shiver and quickly became serious, telling her everything that Yun Ruoleng had done today.


    When Jun Qingshang heard that, his eyes revealed thoughts, and he chuckled for a while: "Interesting. Keep an eye on them, report back at any time. "


    "Yes sir!" An Yue nodded his head, holding onto his waist as he walked out step by step.


    Jun Qingshang could not bear to see such a wronged look appearing on his face. He said lazily: "I''ll count to three, if you don''t disappear from my sight, you have to bear the consequences!"


    An Yue was shocked, as he ran out of the room.


    Jun Qingshang, "..."


    He knew that this brat was just pretending. Although it was a little dishonest, it was still very efficient in handling things, and in the past few days, he had discovered one of his skills, and that was: gossiping, letting him keep an eye on Yun Ruoleng, was indeed a good choice.


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly, and read Yun Ruoleng''s name silently in his heart. He did not like her, but was curious, curious as to what kind of woman this woman was.


    The more he observed, the more he found this woman to be interesting.


    When night fell, Yun Ruoleng finally finished a picture of a "rich peony". Her entire body was tired and she laid on a chair.


    "He seems to be lacking something ¡­" After Yun Ruoleng drank a mouthful of water, his expression gradually relaxed, alleviating his fatigue. When he looked at the drawing again, his brows were knitted slightly.


    Peach Blossom who was at the side did not dare to disturb her. However, when she saw her young miss''s headache, she could not help but mutter, "Miss, this is clearly a very perfect painting. Look at this peony flower, it looks like it''s real!" His tone was filled with pride. His young mistress was truly amazing, she could look so good just by painting.


    Yun Ruoleng did not care about Peach Blossom, his fingers continuously groping for the picture. He felt that he was missing something, so he waved his hand to let Peach Blossom go, he lowered his head and continued to study the picture in his hands.


    After an unknown amount of time had passed, Yun Ruoleng still could not tell where the problem was with the drawing. Just as he was prepared to call Peach Blossom in, a sharp dagger was placed on her neck. Yun Ruoleng''s heart tensed up, and pretended to be calm as he asked: "When did you come over?"


    The person behind him did not speak, and the dagger in his hand moved closer to his neck, causing Yun Ruoleng to subconsciously fall backwards, falling into a broad chest.


    A faint smell of blood assaulted his nose. Yun Ruoleng was startled, and asked: "You''re injured?"


    The person behind him did not say anything, but the hand holding the knife paused. Yun Ruoleng did not say anything loudly, afraid that the Peach Blossom would be attracted, and at that time, not only would he be in danger, even Peach Blossom would also be in danger.


    "Let go of me," Yun Ruoleng said in a low voice. "I''ll help you bandage your wound, don''t worry, I won''t call anyone over."


    "Why should this sovereign believe you?" A hoarse voice came from behind Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his hand and moved the daggers that were flickering with a cold light on his neck: "Look, there are only two women in our courtyard, and this courtyard is so remote, that even if I scream, not to mention if they can''t hear me, even if they hear me, before you come here, you can definitely kill them with one strike, right?"


    "Besides, we have no enmity between us. If I help you to bandage your wounds, you still owe me a favor, right?" Yun Ruoleng''s words were indifferent, he did not seem to be afraid, but his heart was a little nervous.


    "You''re smart." The man was silent for a long time. Finally, he put away the dagger in his hand.


    After Yun Ruoleng gained his freedom, he quickly fled far away. His sixth sense told her that this man was not to be trifled with.


    "Didn''t you say that you would treat this sovereign''s wounds?" Even though the man''s face was covered, his pair of seductive beautiful eyes s could still make women scream.


    "I ¡­ I''ll ask my maid to prepare some hot water. Don''t worry, I won''t say anything." Yun Ruoleng quickly reopened his eyes, cursing himself for being so useless, to think that he would be captivated by those eyes.


    "I believe you." A trace of ridicule flashed past the man''s beautiful eyes, but in a flash, Yun Ruoleng was distracted and did not notice it at all.


    He believed in himself? Yun Ruoleng was also stunned for a moment.


    But looking at this man, Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly, he probably believed in his own strength. The moment she had the intention to act unscrupulously, the scythe of death would come crashing down from her head before she could say anything else.


    Yun Ruoleng did not say much. She only turned around and opened the door, and then ordered Peach Blossom who had just came over: "Quick, go get a pot of hot water."


    The man quietly looked at Yun Ruoleng''s figure and secretly went on guard. However, he felt his vision blur, and the things in front of him started to double up. Even the figure of the woman had changed from one to two or three.


    Countless question marks flashed through Peach Blossom''s mind, but all she saw was the door slam shut in front of her.


    Why was her young mistress so popular? Did he figure out the problem with the painting?


    "Yes, miss, I''ll go right away." Peach Blossom''s voice was somewhat happy as she excitedly ran out, all she wanted to do was to hurry up and bring in hot water to see how the young mistress handled the painting.


    After Yun Ruoleng finished giving orders, he turned around and said, "Look, I am... Hm? Dizzy? "

 C38

    It was unknown when the black-clothed man closed his eyes and leaned on the table. Yun Ruoleng took two probing steps forward, but he discovered that this man had indeed stopped moving.


    He quickly took two steps forward and carefully looked at his eyes. He felt that these two beautiful eyes were somewhat familiar, but he could not recall where he had seen them before. Curious, Yun Ruoleng put down the things in his hands, carefully walked to the side of the man and squatted down, and as if he was a thief, tried to tear off the black cloth that was covering his face.


    Ah!" Yun Ruo cried out in shock, looking at the slender fingers holding her wrist, her thoughts raced: "I want to help you take a look at your injuries, don''t be nervous ¡­" "Huh?


    Halfway through his words, the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth couldn''t help but twitch. It seemed that this man hadn''t woken up at all, that he was holding his hand with complete vigilance.


    With such a strong sense of vigilance, it seemed that she was definitely not an ordinary person. It would be best if she didn''t provoke her as much as possible. As he thought till this point, Yun Ruoleng retracted his hand, got up and closed the window.


    Miss, the hot water servant that you asked for ¡­ At this moment, Peach Blossom came in with a pot of hot water. When she saw the man in black, she cried out, "Ah!"


    "Shh." Yun Ruoleng immediately silenced Peach Blossom and nodded, "Just put that thing down and leave, I''ll be fine here."


    However, Peach Blossom, who felt that she had to take on the responsibility of protecting her little miss, hesitated for a moment. Her feet did not move as she worriedly asked, "Little miss, who is he?"


    "I don''t know him." Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned, while taking the hot water towel to wipe the black clothed man''s hair.


    "Don''t, don''t know him?" Peach Blossom was dumbfounded. Was her young miss stupid? He dared to place the person in his room even though he didn''t know her. If the First Madam knew that there was a man in his room, she would lose her reputation in the future.


    No, absolutely not! Being anxious, Tao Hong pulled Yun Ruoleng back a few steps. Then, she stuck out her chest and said: "Miss, let this servant do it!"


    "You?" Yun Ruoleng tilted his head and asked with uncertainty, "Weren''t you afraid?"


    "Compared to Miss''s reputation, this servant''s fear is nothing!"


    Peach Blossom looked as if she was willing to die for now. Yun Ruoleng immediately laughed: "I know you are doing this for my sake, but I can''t move such a big person alone. Let''s work together. "Besides, we''re just helping him bandage his wounds, not because we want to do anything, what''s there to be afraid of?"


    "But ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly covered her rosy red mouth, as she listened vigilantly to the unusual activity outside, her gaze subconsciously falling on the man who fainted on the chair.


    Peach Blossom shrunk her neck. Footsteps? Did First Madam and the others know about it?


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to know what Peach Blossom was going to say and unhappily knocked her on the head. "What are you thinking about?


    "Miss ¡­"


    Peach Blossom wanted to say something, but seeing that her young miss was already on her side, she simply stomped her feet and moved along with her. It wasn''t easy for her to get the masked man onto the bed and hide in the blanket.


    A low murmur of discussion rose from outside.


    "Boss, this room is the only one we haven''t seen yet. Should we ¡­"


    "Don''t alert the enemy!"


    With that said, the footsteps from the others dispersed in all directions. Yun Ruoleng sat on the edge of the bed and squinted his eyes, suddenly staring at Peach Blossom, and angrily shouted: "You little bitch, you actually stole my things!"


    "Your servant hasn''t ¡­"


    "You still dare to say no?" Yun Ruoleng was so angry that her face turned red, she threw a string of beads on the ground, "Then what is this? This was personally found by me on your body! "


    "Miss, I really didn''t steal it!" Peach Blossom immediately became anxious. She didn''t know why, but the young miss who was still fine a moment ago suddenly shouted at her. She also didn''t know why the young miss would accuse her of stealing something from her.


    "No, right?" Yun Ruoleng snorted twice as though he didn''t believe it, and pointed to the outside with his finger: "I already told Third Sis to come over and help me investigate this. Kneel down, wait for Third Sis to come over, then get up!"


    "Miss ¡­" Tao Hong was just about to explain when she saw Yun Ruoleng''s face darken. Peach Blossom bit her lips and seemed to understand, but she nodded and knelt down.


    The people outside heard the commotion and were shocked. Although this was the most remote corner of the Minister¡¯s Mansion, hearing the meaning from the people inside, it seemed that someone was about to come.


    At this moment, it was not convenient to search the place, so the men in black quickly looked at each other and left.


    Yun Ruoleng had been listening intently to the activity outside, and listening to the quiet outside, he then heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly ran to the door to help Peach Blossom up, explaining calmly: "Peach Blossom, the situation just now was extremely urgent, I know that you did not steal anything, and now that the people have left, you should quickly go outside and guard it, and do not let anyone in."


    "You really scared me." Tao Hong pouted her lips in grievance, the look of Yun Ruoleng just now had almost left a shadow in her heart.


    "Not next time." Yun Ruoleng took her hand and smiled, "Next time, I will definitely inform you in advance."


    Next time? This time, Peach Blossom felt as if her heart was about to explode, but seeing that Yun Ruoleng was already starting to take care of the man''s injuries, she had no choice but to quickly go out and protect him.


    This night was destined to not be peaceful. Although that group of people hadn''t come back yet, the man on the bed got a fever in the middle of the night, and even had a high fever. Although Yun Ruoleng knew some medical knowledge, he could do nothing about it since there were no medicine to help him cool down.


    "Water ¡­"


    "What did you say?" Yun Ruoleng''s heart was overjoyed. He thought that the man had woken up, but when he turned around, his eyes were still closed and his thin lips were a little pale and dry. There was no sign of him waking up at all. Yun Ruoleng shook his head, had he been hallucinating?


    The man on the bed seemed to understand her thoughts. His thin lips parted as a weak voice came from his lips. "Water ¡­"


    This time, when Yun Ruoleng heard it clearly, his eyes lit up, and he turned around to pour a cup of water on the table. Reaching out to help the man up, he carefully fed the water to him and left the room.


    After a while, Yun Ruoleng returned with a huge bucket filled with water. On top of the bucket was a white cloth.


    "I''m so tired!" Yun Ruoleng swung his arm, stretched his muscles and bones, and then turned around and used the method to cool the man down to relieve the heat. After changing his handkerchief a few times, Yun Ruoleng clearly felt that the heat from the man''s body had disappeared, returning to normal.


    However, changing the towel again and again, Yun Ruoleng was so tired that he fell asleep on the bed. Faintly feeling as if someone was staring at her, but the fatigue made her only clench her lips and fall back into a deep sleep.

 C39

    Seeing that the woman beside him was not on guard, the man who had just woken up swept his gaze across the water bucket at the side. The cloth wrapped around his head, his expression slightly startled, and his gaze towards Yun Ruoleng softened.


    "Stupid." The man suddenly snorted, and after getting up, he turned and carried Yun Ruoleng up, and properly covered him up with the blanket.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up, the man on the bed was already gone. She touched the bed sheets on her body, startled for a moment, and then angrily said: "He left just like that? At the very least, he should at least save some thanks! Ungrateful! Next time, don''t let me see you again! "


    Until Peach Red came in to help her comb her makeup, Yun Ruoleng had been grinding his teeth all the way until now. Could it be that she had been busy the entire night and hadn''t managed to get anything out of it? Yun Ruoleng was very dissatisfied with this kind of business loss.


    Sensing the resentment that Yun Ruoleng was constantly releasing, Tao Hong could not help but shrink back her neck. "Miss should not have saved him at that time."


    "Don''t mention him! I get angry when I talk about it. " Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief. This was the first time she risked her life to save a stranger.


    "Alright, don''t be angry miss." Peach Blossom saw that her young miss was so angry that her face turned blue. She quickly comforted, "Let''s not mention him anymore. We should think about how we should deal with our young miss today."


    In the past, the Eldest Miss would bully her young mistress every few days, so it was about time.


    "She doesn''t have time to bother me right now." Yun Ruoleng snorted, thinking that Yun Yueyu had learnt to cook the previous day, his mood became a little better, he did not know if this young miss, who did not touch the Yang Spring Water with her fingers, would explode the kitchen?


    "I heard the Regent is here." Tao Hong put down the plate in her hands and smiled at Yun Ruoleng: "Alright, young miss."


    "It''s here again? "You''ve been quite diligent recently." Yun Ruoleng coldly snorted. Even though that Jun Qingshang had a devilish appearance, he was still not her type. Besides, for the sake of her own life, it was better for her not to get too close to him.


    This sort of man could just watch from afar.


    However, Peach Blossom looked troubled as she looked at Yun Ruoleng, and said hesitantly: "But, but did the Regent King come to our residence after breakfast today? I heard that he even asked for Young Miss to come over by name." Originally, the Regent had come to Minister¡¯s Mansion today and called for the Young Miss to accompany him. Peach Blossom naturally felt happy for her young miss, but looking at her young miss, she didn''t seem very happy.


    "A roll call?" Yun Ruoleng''s pupils shrank. This man, was he trying to push her away?


    Yun Ruoleng felt that he and this Regent would be enemies in his previous life. Otherwise, if he didn''t choose the number one beauty in the family, he would definitely choose this young miss with an extremely bad reputation and not receive any favors.


    "That''s right!" Peach Red thought that Yun Ruoleng was happy and immediately said, "Because of this, the old master personally got someone to give you this set of clothes and these pieces of jewelry. Miss, did you not notice that the material of this set of clothes is different from before?"


    "Haha ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s gaze turned slightly cold. Yun Shicheng was truly a good father who sold women for money!


    She didn''t care about it for more than ten years, but today, because the Regent had asked her to accompany him, she prepared such a good thing.


    "Since father is already so impatient, how could I refuse?" Yun Ruoleng walked over to the picture that he had drawn yesterday, and raised his hand to put away the painting, but just as he was about to touch the painting, he was stunned.


    "Miss, what''s wrong?" Peach Red saw that her young lady kept holding the painting, and the expression on her face fluctuated between light and darkness. She felt a wave of unease in her heart.


    Yun Ruoleng did not bother with Peach Blossom. Instead, he sat back in his seat, thinking about something. Peach Red opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn''t dare to disturb her. For a moment the room was strangely quiet.


    Regent¡¯s Mansion, Jun Qingshang was currently sitting in the Flower Hall, sipping tea, with three to four corpses laid on the ground.


    "Your Highness, these people are very skilled, they don''t seem like people from a proper sect. In addition, the power they had was way too dark, which meant they might be the legendary dark Magi. "


    "Dark Magi ¡­" Jun Qingshang raised his sword-like eyebrows slightly and muttered to himself, "You guys should pay more attention to the movements in the city recently and take extra precautions to avoid any mishap."


    "Yes." The people in the crowd quickly replied and left.


    However, An Ying still remained in place. After hesitating for a moment, he asked: "Master, is your injury?"


    "Nothing, I dealt with it last night." Jun Qingshang smiled, as though he had thought of something, and smiled, and then disappeared, instructing, "Since you have completed your task, go back to the Minister¡¯s Mansion today, and continue staring at Seventh Miss."


    "Yes sir!" Although he agreed, An Ying still could not understand, why did his master seem to be so concerned about the Seventh Miss? Although her looks were not bad, and her heart was not as bad as the young miss, Seventh Miss''s reputation was not good!


    Besides, Ye Xiao was already not doing well in the mansion, so Master kept staring at him again and again. Did he really think he didn''t die fast enough?


    But Seventh Miss Yun Ruoleng was focused on the painting in front of him, his eyes suddenly lit up: "I know, Peach Blossom Mo!"


    After waiting for a while, she could not hear anything. Peach Blossom twisted her fingers and said, "But Miss, we need to go to First Madam to pay our respects ¡­."


    Greetings? Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed with a cold light, wasn''t this the same time as looking for trouble?


    Peach Blossom seemed to have thought of this as well. She knelt down and began to grind the ink, "I was wrong. Please forgive me."


    "Don''t worry, they will send someone over later." The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth hooked up into a mocking smile, "Moreover, I''m not afraid of them right now." Since the Regent had delivered himself to her, wouldn''t it be a waste if she didn''t use him?


    Although Peach Blossom didn''t understand the meaning behind her young miss''s words, she still felt that her young miss was correct, so she lowered her head to focus on grinding the ink. Yun Ruoleng tapped lightly with her hand, and the tip of her brush flew around the canvas.


    Not long after, people from the First Madam rushed over. The person who came was different from the ferocious old nanny from yesterday. When he saw Yun Ruoleng, he smiled and said, "This old servant pays respects to the Seventh Miss."


    As the proverb goes, one should not hit a smiling person. Yun Ruoleng only glanced at her: "nanny is too polite, I wonder why nanny is here?"


    "This old servant is here to deliver a message for First Madam, to have young miss prepare to welcome esteemed guests together, don''t lose your manners later on."


    "Please thank First Madam for my advice." Although Yun Ruoleng said that, she was still disdainful in her heart. She reckoned that First Madam was trying to play some tricks again, after all, he was the golden turtle she was going to fish for, so how could she give him away so easily?


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not intend to immediately go, nanny was slightly dissatisfied, but he still smiled and said: "Seventh Miss, you should go ahead and clean up the mess with this old servant! Don''t make the old master and the young mistress panic. "

 C40

    But Yun Ruoleng just slowly put down his brush, and looked at him with focus, then turned to nanny and smiled.


    "I''ve heard that Aunt Han has been by my father''s side every day. Is that true?"


    nanny''s heart trembled, he never thought that this unfavoured young miss would actually know about these things, the smile on his face was still the same: "This is the old master''s family matter, how can this old servant say anymore. Miss should just follow this old servant. "


    Seeing this, Yun Ruoleng knew that this matter was serious, and that even the First Madam would not be able to do anything to this Aunt Han. His eyes turned, and then he impatiently waved his hand: "You can go back first, I''ll change my clothes."


    After the nanny left, Yun Ruoleng put on the clothes that Yun Shicheng gave him and left with Peach Blossom. Although she didn''t know what First Madam was planning today, going was still due to her bad manners.


    The Hibiscus Courtyard was still filled with the smell of conspiracy. However, the difference from the last time was that the Hibiscus Courtyard was unusually quiet today.


    "Miss, why is there not a single person from the Hibiscus Courtyard?" Tao Hong followed behind Yun Ruoleng and asked softly.


    Yun Ruoleng did not speak, his gaze darkened and he had a faint guess in his heart. Seeing that the grass was shaking, Yun Ruoleng said coldly: "Since there is no one here, then let us go to the main hall, I think that Your Highness should be here by now."


    Peach Red nodded in puzzlement, seeming to be slightly puzzled. But just as the two of them took two steps forward, a few robust nanny appeared, led by the nanny who went to invite Yun Ruoleng previously, she laughed and said, "First Madam is eating, please wait a moment."


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze turned slightly cold as she slowly said, "Should we wait for an hour, or wait for six hours?" Now it seems that First Madam does not want her to see the Regent. It seems that she is already feared.


    The nanny in front of him saw that Yun Ruoleng had guessed it, but he said, "This old servant doesn''t know."


    Heh, you don''t know? This clearly meant that as long as the Regent did not leave, she would not be able to leave this courtyard. He just stroked his sleeve and smiled: "It''s just that when father asked, I would have to tell him the truth."


    As his voice fell, the nanny could not help but look at each other. Amongst the Minister¡¯s Mansion, the one who spoke the most would still be Minister Yun.


    "If little sister is too sick to get out of bed, father probably won''t say much." A coquettish voice suddenly sounded from the side. Yun Yueyu walked over gracefully, but the harsh look in her eyes made her beauty seem thin and annoying.


    However, Yun Ruoleng shook her head slightly: "Even if your sister is sickly, since Your Highness is here for me, I believe you would still go visit her.


    "For you?" Yun Yueyu covered his face and sneered, his eyes filled with disdain: "Little sister, stop dreaming! His Highness only wants you to accompany him. What did accompanying mean? It''s just like a dancer, don''t think you''re in love. "


    Since they were all trustworthy people, Yun Yueyu decided to not hide his malicious thoughts and spoke straightforwardly.


    Tao Hong was so angry that her face turned red, she took a step forward to say something, but was stopped by Yun Ruoleng, and shouted in a low voice: "Don''t be rash." Based on her identity, Yun Yueyu couldn''t do anything to her, but Peach Blossom was just a girl. If she broke the rules, Yun Yueyu would have a hundred excuses to attack her.


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Blossom naturally understood the meaning behind her young miss''s words. Her eyes instantly turned red, and she was both angry and touched.


    Seeing that Peach Blossom was obedient, Yun Ruoleng turned and looked at Yun Yueyu, as though she was sighing helplessly: "Since that''s the case, then little sister, please stay here. Big sister can go back to your work, don''t worry about me."


    "Hmph, consider yourself sensible!" Yun Yueyu snorted coldly. Raising his chin high and bringing along Mo Shu, he turned around and left like a proud peacock. His footsteps were hurried, as if he was in a hurry to see the Regent.


    But the few nanny s did not leave, they continued to stand guard by the side, vigilantly watching Yun Ruoleng''s movements.


    "Miss, what should we do?" Peach Blossom was a little sad as she asked in a low voice.


    Glancing at the nanny s who were still staring at her, the corners of Yun Ruoleng''s lips curled up slightly. "Wait."


    Not long later, messy footsteps came from outside the courtyard. Yun Ruoleng''s brows moved, he looked over, and saw someone he did not expect.


    Yun Qingyao was standing at the door, his expression was somewhat anxious, he gasped for breath, and only after seeing that Yun Ruoleng was fine, did he heave a sigh of relief. In the blink of an eye, he caught sight of the few nanny guarding around him. Yun Qingyao took two steps forward: "Little Sis, why are you still here. Father wants you to hurry to the main hall.


    Glancing at the leading nanny Zhou, Yun Ruoleng sneered and shook his head: "First Madam told me to wait here for her to finish her breakfast. She said that she has something to discuss."


    Yun Qingyao immediately understood, his expression was slightly startled, then he laughed: "Presumably, the servant sent the wrong message, First Madam is already in the main hall, I have to quickly come to pick you up."


    With that, Yun Qingyao pulled Yun Ruoleng and was about to leave. Zhou nanny wanted to stop him, but he heard Yun Qingyao suddenly say coldly: "What else do you want?"


    Most of the time, Yun Qingyao was gentle and virtuous, but this action of his caused nanny Zhou to be shocked, and he awkwardly opened his mouth and said: "First Madam has ordered, Seventh Miss is going to ¡­."


    "Don''t speak nonsense. Father and First Madam clearly told me to bring my sister over!" Yun Qingyao raised his voice, the determination in his eyes was obvious.


    Seeing that, nanny Zhou could only watch as Yun Qingyao brought Yun Ruoleng away. The person behind him could not help but ask: "nanny Zhou, what do we do now?"


    "You don''t know how to think about it yourself?!" nanny Zhou was also angry in his heart, but he did not understand how Yun Qingyao knew that he was in the courtyard.


    According to the First Madam''s words, even if Minister Yun found out that Yun Ruoleng did not come, even if he sent someone to look for him, he would only go to the Ao Xue Yuan.


    The two sisters walked into the auditorium together. Yun Ruoleng''s gaze swept over them, but he did not see the charming Lord Regent. He actually ran into Yun Yueyu''s surprised yet furious gaze.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes swept across Mo Shu''s face and smiled, then he sat down in a respectful manner.


    Yun Shicheng was very satisfied with their performance, he smiled and nodded: "Alright, when we meet Your Highness later, you will definitely perform well, don''t lose your identity as the Young Miss of Minister¡¯s Mansion."


    Do well? Yun Ruoleng secretly sneered, the tone of his voice sounded like he was flattering someone.


    "Old master, old master, the palace is coming down..." Housekeeper Zhang Rong hurriedly ran in.


    Yun Shicheng immediately laughed when he heard it: "Alright, let''s go welcome Your Highness together." His old face had a smile that was like a chrysanthemum, and his wrinkled face seemed to be trying to curry favor with him.


    Seeing Yun Shicheng bringing Ying Yan forward to welcome him, Jun Qingshang''s gaze slightly sank, but his gaze accurately landed on Yun Ruoleng''s body.

 C41

    Sensing Jun Qingshang''s gaze, Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly, but he did not look over.


    Seeing this, Jun Qingshang retracted his gaze, looked at Yun Shicheng, and smiled faintly: "This duke has only come today to take Seventh Miss out for a walk, there is no need to trouble Senior Yun."


    "This ¡­" Yun Shicheng was a little confused. Didn''t the Regent say that he would come to the Palace? How did it become an exit?


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but pinch his forehead even more tightly. What is this man trying to do now?


    Sensing that Yun Qingyao had looked over, Yun Ruoleng turned to look in a blink of an eye, only to see her smiling at him. She seemed to be giving her blessings and sending him a helpless smile.


    Yun Yueyu was startled for a moment, but immediately calmed down and blurted out: "Your Highness, little sister''s reputation is so bad, how can she accompany Your Highness by her side!"


    "Are you questioning This King?" Jun Qingshang''s expression did not change, but when he said it, it was as though there was a chill in his heart.


    The air instantly froze, and everyone held their breath as they subconsciously looked at Yun Yueyu.


    "Yu''er doesn''t mean that, she just ¡­" After saying that, Yun Yueyu looked towards Yun Ruoleng who was watching by the side, and slowly said, "My sister''s reputation has always been bad, if I were to follow Your Highness out now, there will inevitably be people discussing about it."


    Jun Qingshang shot a cold glance over, his voice cold, "Regarding this king''s matters, who dares to say anything?"


    He hurriedly stepped forward, shielding Yun Yueyu behind him as a smile hung on his face, "Please calm your anger, Your Highness. Words are only meant to please your sister, that''s why your words and actions are meaningless. Please forgive me."


    Yun Shicheng secretly gave the First Madam a meaningful glance, telling her to quickly bring Yun Yueyu away, and then smiled at Yun Ruoleng, "Leng Er, hurry up and go out with His Highness, don''t delay his matters."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng covered the bottom of his eyes and sneered. Instead, his eyes turned as he looked at Jun Qingshang and said, "Your Highness, Leng Er considers himself to be more intelligent than his eldest sister. He might as well be more docile than her.


    She didn''t want to be alone with this devilish Regent.


    When Yun Yueyu heard this, his eyes flashed with happiness, and he anxiously looked over, the look of anticipation on his face exceptionally obvious. As for Yun Qingyao, she glanced at Yun Ruoleng with a complicated expression, but as Jun Qingshang swept his eyes across her, a faint pink color surfaced on her face.


    Yun Shicheng was startled, then immediately broke into a smile, this little girl of his was truly sensible, she even knew that it was better to seek benefits for her two sisters, she was truly his daughter.


    Smiling merrily and nodding at Yun Ruoleng, Yun Shicheng continued: "Your Highness, what do you think?"


    The silent Jun Qingshang smiled and said, "There''s no need, this king appreciates people like the Seventh Miss."


    An appreciation smashed into everyone''s heart, Yun Shicheng was elated, how could he care about his eldest daughter''s dark expression, he immediately extended her hand to push Yun Ruoleng, and urged: "Yes yes, Your Highness is right. Leng Er, what are you still standing there for, hurry up and go over there. "


    Yun Ruoleng did not expect Jun Qingshang to do this, and was immediately stunned. When he came back to his senses, he saw that Jun Qingshang was already seated in the carriage, opening a corner of the curtain: "Seventh Miss is still waiting for me to come and invite you?"


    Even though he was extremely unwilling, Yun Ruoleng had no choice but to follow them. Furthermore, they were all under the vicious gazes of Yun Yueyu and the First Madam as he slowly walked towards the carriage.


    An Ying who was driving outside of the car tactfully carried a chair for Yun Ruoleng, and Yun Ruoleng thanked him and walked forward.


    The interior of the carriage was not considered large, but the interior was rather exquisite. A small pot of rosewood was placed in the middle of the carriage, and on the table was a pot of tea that emitted a tempting aroma.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze unblinkingly stared at the teapot that was filled with tea as an envious light flashed in his eyes.


    That was a purple jade earthenware pot. If she had one, she could sell it at will. She wouldn''t need to sell any more paintings. Furthermore, she didn''t want to bother with the person beside her. All of a sudden, her gaze was fixated on the clay pot.


    "That pot is very pretty?" Ever since Yun Ruoleng got on the carriage, Jun Qingshang''s gaze had never left her face. However, this woman''s gaze was always on the violet jade earthenware pot, completely ignoring his existence.


    "Very rich." Yun Ruoleng said indifferently.


    "What?" Jun Qingshang felt that this woman could really infuriate a person to death with every second.


    "Huh?" After Yun Ruoleng spat out these four words, she was a little regretful. How could she forget that this man was the unreasonable Regent?


    Jun Qingshang snorted coldly, turned his head, and said slowly: "Come with me to a place."


    "Where to?" Yun Ruoleng really didn''t want to waste too much time with this man.


    "You''ll know once you get there." Jun Qingshang said coldly, he did not seem to want to talk much.


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was enraged, but could not refute him, because this was the truth, and she could not reject it. After figuring it out, Yun Ruoleng''s heart calmed down as well. Suddenly, a glint flashed in her eyes, and she extended her slender hand in front of Jun Qingshang, "A method to cultivate Shaman Energy."


    This was what they had agreed upon previously. They didn''t want it now, but when?


    "Wait." Jun Qingshang stared at the small hands in front of her in a daze and said indifferently.


    Yun Ruoleng had been toyed with by Jun Qingshang twice, and this time he was much more cautious: "Are you serious?"


    "Is there a need for This King to lie to you?" Jun Qingshang picked up the beautiful eyes, and looked at Yun Ruoleng''s serious little face with a smile that was not a smile, and suddenly felt that staying with this woman was not bad.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, then suddenly said: "Have we met before?"


    Jun Qingshang''s face, which was previously as calm as a spring breeze, instantly darkened slightly. "What do you think?"


    "No, I said yesterday." As Yun Ruoleng looked at his pair of beautiful eyes, he couldn''t help but recall the man who possessed the beautiful eyes last night. His phoenix eyes slightly narrowed as he probed, "Did you go to the Minister¡¯s Mansion last night?"


    "What is this duke doing at the Minister¡¯s Mansion so late at night? Seventh Miss, did you not wake up? " Jun Qingshang glanced sideways.


    Jun Qingshang''s answer stunned Yun Ruoleng for a moment. As a Regent, even if he was being hunted, he wouldn''t need to run towards the Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    Besides, that man suffered such heavy injuries last night. He would probably need at least half a month before he could get out of bed. How could he be as lively as this unreasonable Regent!?


    "I was thinking too much." Yun Ruoleng shook his head and smiled at Jun Qingshang.


    A dark light flashed past Jun Qingshang''s eyes, but he gave a cold snort.


    Silence soon fell upon the carriage, and the two sat down on either side, deep in thought.


    After an unknown amount of time, the carriage finally stopped.

 C42

    "Mistress, we''re here." The man who was dozing off on the side of the carriage suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Yun Ruoleng who was rubbing his eyes, laughed in his heart, and opened the curtain without batting an eyelid, then walked out.


    Yun Ruoleng tilted her head in confusion. How did she offend him?


    "Will the Seventh Miss wait for this king to invite you down?" Hearing Jun Qingshang''s mocking tone, Yun Ruoleng immediately exploded. He opened the curtain and walked out of the carriage angrily, and without being supported, he jumped down.


    "Where is this place?" Yun Ruoleng who had jumped down from the carriage was stunned, and immediately forgot about what happened, as his gaze quickly swept the surrounding fruits.


    There was green mountain water here, but there was no sign of human life. Why did he bring me here?


    "Follow closely." Jun Qingshang didn''t explain any further and brought her towards an unremarkable willow tree.


    Yun Ruoleng was curious, but he did not dare to ask too much as he followed Jun Qingshang closely. Jun Qingshang paused under the willow tree, turned his head and said with a smile that was not a smile: "Go in."


    "What?" Yun Ruoleng was stunned, he looked around, went in? Where to?


    Jun Qingshang was too lazy to explain to her as he extended his arm and directly threw the stupefied Yun Ruoleng into the willow tree.


    Yes, inside the willow tree.


    Ah!" Yun Ruo Leng thought that she would crash into the trunk of a willow tree and faint, but the feeling of weightlessness hit her.


    When Yun Ruoleng came back to his senses, she had already fiercely smashed onto the ground. The pain made her grimace in pain as she silently cursed Jun Qingshang for being tyrannical! Rubbing his butt, Yun Ruoleng stood up from the ground. She looked around and her eyes lit up, because she saw a white bearded white robed old man sitting in a thatched cottage not far away from them, bathing in the sunlight.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly had an idea. Maybe this was the master that Jun Qingshang had found for her?


    With this kind of mood, Yun Ruoleng carefully walked to the front of the thatched cottage, cupped his hands, and respectfully asked: "Senior, may I ask you a question?"


    The old man slowly opened his eyes, looking at Yun Ruoleng, who had disturbed his rest, with some displeasure: "How did you come in?"


    Wasn''t it too embarrassing to say that he had been thrown inside? Yun Ruoleng was slightly embarrassed as he replied: "I came here with the Regent King."


    "Jun Qingshang?" The old man''s gaze was like an ice blade, he swept his eyes across Yun Ruoleng''s body, his imposing manner was so severe that one would not be able to discern the slightest bit of decaying wood energy. After a long while, he threw out a jade pendant and passed it to Yun Ruoleng, "Take this.


    "But ¡­" Yun Ruoleng immediately caught the jade and wanted to ask something else.


    "Turn around and take three steps, then six steps left and right into the willow tree, then you can leave." Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to finish speaking, the old man interrupted her and said without any emotion, "Don''t bother me, I want to bask in the sun."


    "¡­" Do not sunbathe more, the elderly easy osteoporosis. Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath, she had to endure!


    He turned around and left this strange place as per the elder''s orders.


    At this time, Jun Qingshang was still standing in front of the willow tree with a thoughtful expression. Before this, Jun Qingshang had tried to enter it before, but even though it was not in front of his eyes, he felt that there was a real wall in front of him, and that was why he wanted to try bringing Yun Ruoleng there.


    Just as he was deep in thought, An Ying saw Yun Ruoleng coming out from the willow tree, and immediately woke his master up. "Your Highness, Seventh Miss is out."


    "Did you see him?" Jun Qingshang asked slowly, although he did not go in, he seemed to know the situation inside like the back of his hand.


    Yun Ruoleng turned slightly cold. She touched the jade pendant hidden in her sleeve and looked at the clear and cold beautiful eyes in front of her.


    In her pure white hand, she held a transparent jade pendant. Jun Qingshang lowered her head, took a quick look at it, and then said: "Carefully take this, and don''t give it to others as you wish." With that, Jun Qingshang turned and instructed An Ying, "It''s getting late, send Seventh Miss back."


    "Yes sir!" An Ying responded and made a gesture of invitation towards Yun Ruoleng.


    He looked at Jun Qingshang in shock. He did not ask for anything, as this was slightly inconsistent with his usual shameless setting, but it was better not to disturb him. Yun Ruoleng nodded slightly and thanked him, then followed An Ying.


    Ever since that day, Yun Ruoleng stayed home to study her painting. Although she had sold two paintings these past two days, they were not what she was happy about.


    "Miss, today the Master sent someone to bring Miss two pearl flowers, saying that they were given to her by the palace." Peach Blossom walked in from outside with a tray and said with a smile, "The lord has been much better to the little miss. It was our turn to take care of these things in the past!"


    "Just keep the items that were bestowed." Yun Ruoleng was not in the mood to care about the two Pearl Flowers.


    "Miss ¡­" Tao Hong originally wanted to make Yun Ruoleng happy, but her young miss didn''t even give her a glance. She couldn''t help but feel wronged.


    Yun Ruoleng looked up with a troubled expression and asked: "What else do you want?"


    "This servant just wanted to say that, rather than staying here and thinking about it, why don''t you go out and change your mind? Who knows, maybe you''ll be able to figure it out." Peach Blink blinked his eyes in grievance.


    Seeing Peach Blossom''s wronged look, Yun Ruoleng laughed and shook his head, rubbing between his brows and said: "Alright, I''ll listen to you!"


    She turned around and helped Yun Ruoleng pack his stuff, then said: "When I went to the back of the garden yesterday, I saw a few peony plants that had just bloomed, would Miss like to take a look?"


    "There are peonies this season?" Yun Ruoleng looked at Peach Blossom in astonishment, "Isn''t a peony blooming in the third month?"


    "Who did Miss hear it from?" Peach Blossom tilted her head in puzzlement as she frowned, "The peony is divided into Jindan (Jindan), Hongdan (Red), and Baidan (White), respectively. The peony is opened in three seasons."


    Was it because of the environment here? Or maybe Peach Blossom didn''t mean Peony at all.


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart was filled with doubt, as he said to Peach Blossom: "Let''s go, I actually want to see this red peony.


    "Yes sir!" After hanging the last wolf hair on the pen holder, Peach Red turned around and smiled as she led the way for Yun Ruoleng.


    It was unknown if it was because of Yun Ruoleng''s bad luck, but Yun Yueyu, who had never come looking for trouble with her, was also in the garden, admiring the flowers.


    The moment he glanced at Yun Yueyu, Yun Ruoleng sighed. Today''s relaxing journey had probably failed once again.


    "Sister, are you free today to come out and see the scenery?" Yun Yueyu smiled, but his eyes carried ridicule and jealousy.

 C43

    The last time, His Highness the Regent had personally brought Yun Ruoleng out, and now that Yun Shicheng had something good to give him, he would also head over to the Ao Xue Yuan.


    This made Yun Yueyu jealous. Yun Ruoleng was clearly an existence that was bullied and ignored, how could he live as comfortably as he was now?


    "Mm, I''ll be going back to my room now." Yun Ruoleng did not want to stay any longer and turned to leave.


    But Yun Yueyu was obviously not willing to let this opportunity go, a light flashed in his eyes, and the smile on his lips became even more obvious: "Don''t worry little sister, since you are here, accompany big sister for a walk! It''s been a long time since we sisters talked about this. "


    Yun Ruoleng wanted to reject her, but the words were stuck in her throat, she wanted to see what kind of tricks this girl was playing.


    So the two sisters who were at odds with each other were looking at the flowers in the back garden.


    Yun Yueyu said as he walked with Yun Ruoleng: "The most beautiful flower in this midsummer courtyard is that lotus flower. Big sister fell into the water accidentally last time and didn''t enjoy it properly, do you want to go there with me again little sister?"


    "Alright, sister." Yun Ruoleng sneered in his heart, this woman had never had a memory in her entire life.


    "Big sister has always been curious, where did you guys go to play that day? Seeing that you seem to be very tired when you come back, are you having fun? " Yun Yueyu blinked her eyes, as if she was just casually asking.


    Yun Ruoleng tilted her head and thought for a moment before asking hesitantly, "Does big sister want to hear the truth or a lie?"


    "¡­" The smile on Yun Yueyu''s face stiffened, he forcefully pursed his lips: "Of course it''s true, why else would I ask you?"


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrows, if she wanted to beat around the bush, she would say it clearly. But since she wanted to listen, she would not disappoint her good sister.


    "Your Highness took me to Treadmill outside the city, that place is clear and beautiful, and we spent a peaceful and interesting afternoon there." Yun Ruoleng sighed somewhat dejectedly, "It''s a pity that I don''t have enough stamina. It wasn''t long before I started to feel tired."


    Yun Yueyu''s face turned extremely ugly. This little bitch actually did so many things with His Highness.


    "Right!" Yun Ruoleng suddenly seemed to remember something, he turned and instructed, "Peach Blossom, go and get that box of hairpins that His Highness sent us yesterday."


    With that, Yun Ruoleng turned and smiled towards Yun Yueyu: "Yesterday, Your Highness sent someone to deliver a few jade hairpins, I was just about to share with my two sisters, I forgot about it in a moment, please forgive me."


    "No need!" Yun Yueyu was so angry that his face turned green, he flung his sleeves and said, "Since Your Highness has given it to you, then take it! I have all these things in my box! "


    "Elder sister is angry?" A mocking smile flashed across Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, but on the surface, he pursed his lips innocently and said, "Little sister didn''t have any intention of showing off, I sincerely want to share with big sister."


    "You ¡­" Yun Yueyu resisted the urge to strangle her and snorted coldly, "I wasn''t angry. "It''s getting late. Mo Shu, let''s go back!"


    Right after Yun Yueyu finished speaking, she turned around and wanted to leave, but how could Yun Ruoleng let go of the person who was provoking her so easily? He shifted slightly, a step faster than Yun Yueyu, and blocked in front of her. "Tsk tsk, so even the number one beauty in the capital is just so-so."


    "Yun Ruoleng, you slut, scram!" Yun Yueyu raised his hand and forcefully pushed Yun Ruoleng away.


    Yun Ruoleng covered the dark glint in his eyes and followed Yun Yueyu''s hand before falling onto the ground. But before Yun Yueyu could say anything, a cold voice came from behind.


    "What are you doing!"


    Yun Yueyu''s body froze, he subconsciously turned to look at the approaching person, he was stunned.


    "Miss, are you alright?" Tao Hong worriedly helped Yun Ruoleng up, and only after seeing her shake her head did she heave a sigh of relief.


    "Father ¡­" "Your majesty, Your Highness, I, I ¡­"


    "Sister didn''t mean to hurt me." As Yun Yueyu was speaking incoherently, Yun Ruoleng seemed to be extremely anxious, "Besides, I''m fine, so don''t blame me."


    "Hurry up and apologize to your sister!" Yun Shicheng was not stupid, it was none of his business. At the moment, Yun Ruoleng could be considered the biggest bargaining chip in winning the Regent''s favor.


    "I apologize?" Yun Yueyu looked at his father in disbelief, his eyes full of shock. He retorted, unconvinced, "Father, I didn''t do anything wrong, why are you apologizing?"


    "You ¡­" Yun Shicheng''s face turned green, he was extremely angry, how did he raise such a stupid daughter!


    "Father, don''t make things difficult for sister. I fell down when I lost my balance just now." Although Yun Ruoleng''s head was lowered, he was still unable to hide the scheming in his eyes.


    "Book of Ink!" Help your young miss go back, and let her reflect on it! " Yun Shicheng shot a glance at the black face Regent, and immediately gave out his orders as well, staring at his eldest daughter who had an unconvinced look.


    After being stared at by Yun Shicheng, Yun Yueyu''s entire being became a little absent-minded. Normally, her father would spoil her the most, but what''s wrong with her now? Why does it seem like ¡­ You like that little bitch even more?!


    "Miss?" Mo Shuang reached out to support Yun Yueyu, and reminded him softly, "Miss, we have to think things over carefully, we must not anger the old master again."


    Yun Yueyu bit her lips lightly, nodded, and blessed Jun Qingshang and Jun Qingshang. She glared at him unwillingly before she left.


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to be very satisfied with this outcome, and a faint smile surfaced on the corner of his mouth: "Father and Your Highness still have something to discuss, so Leng Er won''t disturb you anymore."


    "You want to leave just like that?" Jun Qingshang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly opened his mouth, and his eyes inadvertently landed on Yun Ruoleng''s face, "This king has come for you today."


    The words "for you" caused Yun Shicheng to be happy and he quickly continued, "Your Highness, this subject still has matters to attend to. Leng Er, you accompany Your Highness well!"


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s gaze was slightly cold. This father who sold women for wealth, he would never let go of a single opportunity to climb up high!


    Jun Qingshang raised his beautiful eyes slightly, as if he was provoking Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng glared angrily at Jun Qingshang, but replied with a lowered eyebrow: Yes.


    Yun Shicheng seemed to be very satisfied with Yun Ruoleng''s obedient look. Nodding, he cupped his hands towards Jun Qingshang and left.


    "Tell me, how should you thank This King?" Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s furious look, Jun Qingshang could not help but tease, "If not for this king just now, you probably would not have said a word about Yun Yueyu even if you were bullied!"


    "The Regent''s name is renowned throughout the world. Would he care about such a simple task?" Yun Ruoleng did not show any sign of weakness, even without him, she would still be able to deal with that bitch Yun Yueyu.


    "This King never does things without benefits." The meaning behind his words was that it was not a simple matter.

 C44

    How could Yun Ruoleng not understand Jun Qingshang''s meaning? It was just that he did not want to admit it.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng sucked in a breath of cold air, "What does Your Highness want?"


    "This King has not made up his mind." Jun Qingshang raised her eyebrow at Yun Ruoleng, "Why not think about it properly, then ask you for this favor?"


    "As long as it doesn''t cross my bottom line, of course I can." Yun Ruoleng''s tone turned cold, and threw out the classic answer from a Wuxia novel, "But, you touched my bottom line, even if you are Her Highness, I will not interfere."


    "Naturally." When Jun Qingshang heard that she had agreed, the smile on his face became even more obvious.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at this smile and had a bad premonition. He felt that he had been scammed by Jun Qingshang again. But then she thought about it and relaxed. Anyway, she could just say whatever the bottom line was, and wouldn''t she be full of nonsense when that happened?


    Not ignoring the slyness that flashed past Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, the corner of Jun Qingshang''s lips curled up slightly, but she asked, "Do you know how to use the thing from last time?"


    "..." "No." Yun Ruoleng shook his head gloomily. Speaking of this matter, Yun Ruoleng wanted to beat him up.


    After returning that day, she excitedly followed the old man''s instructions. She even started to think that after she mastered how to use her Shaman Energy, she would be able to fly freely in the sky. In the end, when the jade pendant absorbed her blood, it did not react at all.


    Jun Qingshang''s long fingers touched his chin, and stared at Yun Ruoleng''s face in thought. Only when Yun Ruoleng waved his hand to cut off his line of sight did he slowly open his mouth: "Maybe your method is wrong."


    "Impossible!" Yun Ruoleng firmly shook his head, "He said using the blood contract is enough. The contract I wrote on the book was to drop my blood on the jade pendant, then it will be the contract."


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s lips unconsciously twitched, "What lousy book are you reading? Why doesn''t This King know of such a simple method of contract? "


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was a little stunned, could it be that her method was wrong? But that old man did say that.


    "A contract is a profound knowledge." Jun Qingshang swept his eyes across Yun Ruoleng without batting an eyelid, "Little miss, you do have Inherent Skill, but you should still read more."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng was a little speechless, but when she thought about it, this thing was indeed something that she did not understand. After all, before this, she had always believed in science!


    Thinking about it, in order to protect the people he wanted to protect, Yun Ruoleng endured and asked: "Will there be such things on the streets outside in the bookstores?"


    Jun Qingshang slightly narrowed her eyes, "There are indeed none outside of these books, but I do have them, you are just going to read them at my place ¡­"


    "I don''t think so!" Yun Ruoleng was not stupid, wouldn''t going to his residence be like a little white rabbit entering a big wolf''s den? It caused Yun Yueyu and the other girls outside to be jealous.


    Moreover, would Jun Qingshang be so kind to lend the book to her?


    "Leng Er is right, this king also thinks the same." Jun Qingshang pinched the center of his brows, a faint smile on his face.


    "..." "What?" Yun Ruoleng''s face froze. Your sister, you''re messing with her again!


    Jun Qingshang seemed to like teasing Yun Ruoleng when he was free. It was as if he was playing with a cat, it was an interesting act.


    With regards to Jun Qingshang''s actions, which she despised, Yun Ruoleng really wanted to roll her eyes. Since Jun Qingshang had the position of Regent, she tried her best to control it, but she still angrily turned around and left: "Since that''s the case, please do as you please, Your Highness."


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, the woman was not afraid of offending him at all!


    But in truth, Yun Ruoleng was naturally afraid, just that he was always teasing her like a cat, how could she not have a little temper?


    "Your Highness, are we letting her go just like this?" An Ying who was standing behind Jun Qingshang suddenly spoke out.


    Jun Qingshang slightly narrowed his eyes, and the corner of his mouth hooked up into a smile. "To the Ao Xue Yuan."


    "Yes sir!" An Ying silently sighed for the Yun Family Seventh Miss. Sure enough, his master would not easily leave.


    Seventh Miss, you have to hold on! Ever since their master became interested in the Seventh Miss, their days had become much better, and they would not be watched by their master as they practiced combat day in and day out.


    Yun Ruoleng angrily walked back to the Ao Xue Yuan, and felt that today was a lucky day for him. When he went out the door, he met Yun Yueyu who looked like a jinx.


    Trouble! Distracted!


    "Miss, actually, this servant feels that the Regent really treats you very well." Peach Blossom, seeing how her young miss was fuming, considerately poured her a glass of water and said, "This servant heard that the Regent has an extremely cold personality and is almost unbefitting of a woman. If it were anyone else, they would have died hundreds of times already like this young miss today."


    "Rumors cannot be trusted!" Yun Ruoleng waved his hands in disdain, "It''s better if you don''t listen to the nonsense of others.


    "What is gossip?" Peach Red doubtfully asked, "Is it those Taoists?"


    Seeing that Peach Blossom was confused, Yun Ruoleng could not help but laugh out loud. He felt his mood became a lot better, so he nodded his head: "No, gossips are all these, it''s just people talking about it, there''s no credibility to it."


    Peach Blossom nodded her head as if she understood something, and then laid down on the table with a smile, "But Miss, how could I know so many interesting things if I didn''t listen to you! Moreover, doesn''t Miss like to hear other people''s stories? "


    "Cough, cough ¡­" Yun Ruoleng turned her face away in embarrassment. She had indeed heard quite a few things during this period of time, but she did so because she did not understand anyone else. Could this be the same thing?


    "Miss, is your throat uncomfortable?" Tao Hong poured another cup of water for Yun Ruoleng, and said with some concern: "This servant will go make a cup of throat moisturizing tea now."


    "Wang... "Your Highness?" Peach Red was startled, without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to speak, she immediately knelt on the ground, "This servant greets Your Highness."


    "Get up," Jun Qingshang didn''t have the slightest sense of being a customer as he sat across Yun Ruoleng and poured himself a cup of water, "You guys can leave first."


    "Yes." Tao Hong replied. Before she left, she gave Yun Ruoleng an ambiguous look.


    "¡­" Yun Ruo rolled her eyes speechlessly. It had only been a few days, the little girl''s courage was getting fatter and fatter!


    With a slightly unhappy expression, he stared at the man he was familiar with, and asked with a cold expression: "Why did the Palace Chief come here?"


    "I think you have no reason to reject Ben Wang because I know how to contract a jade pendant." Jun Qingshang placed his hands in front of Yun Ruoleng, "Hand it over."


    Yun Ruoleng was very confused, she subconsciously held the jade pendant that was hung on her body tightly, and stared at him warily: "What are you doing?"

 C45

    "A contract." Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows slightly.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng speechlessly took the jade pendant off of his body and handed it over to Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang turned his palm and grabbed Yun Ruoleng''s wrist. In the other hand, he held a dagger that he had taken from an unknown place, and before Yun Ruoleng could come back to his senses, he cut open her middle finger.


    "Hiss!" Yun Ruoleng gasped from the pain. She wanted to retract her hand, but she was grabbed by Jun Qingshang and couldn''t move at all.


    Jun Qingshang''s eyebrows twitched, he placed the jade pendant on the wound, Yun Ruoleng only felt that his blood was flowing, trying to pull it out but unable to move.


    After drawing a flower on the jade with Yun Ruoleng''s finger, the jade instantly shone with a dazzling green light. Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, as he completely forgot the pain in his finger, and asked: "Is this a contract?"


    "It''s about time." Jun Qingshang finally released his fingers and chuckled.


    Hearing that, Yun Ruoleng happily touched a handful of jade pendants, but felt that there was something strange about the middle finger. He raised his head and saw that the middle finger was as white as jade, with not a single wound. As he could not help but take a careful look, the light in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes gradually brightened.


    Jun Qingshang seemed to know what Yun Ruoleng was thinking and said slowly, "Don''t think too much about it, the only reason your wound has recovered is because of the contract."


    "Please advise me, Your Highness." Yun Ruoleng was really clueless about the contract pattern here. He asked humbly, but in his heart, he could not help but mock the white clothed elderly man from before. Seeing the immortal qi drifting about, how could she be so impatient? She couldn''t explain it clearly, but now she still had to beg this big tailed wolf!


    A trace of admiration flashed past Jun Qingshang''s eyes. He didn''t think that the Seventh Miss would be so flexible, he simply explained.


    "Not everyone uses blood to contract things. Some use the soul while others use a part of the body. In short, after the contract is completed, the wound will recover." Jun Qingshang took a sip of the boiling water on the table, and suddenly frowned, "Your life sure isn''t well."


    "Thanks to Your Highness, the First Madam has been sending people to deliver a lot of good stuff recently. But I don''t like tea, so I didn''t prepare it. " Yun Ruoleng smiled and glanced at Jun Qingshang, "Next time if Your Highness wishes to drink tea, you should tell me in advance so that I can prepare it early."


    "Are you blaming This King for coming uninvited?" Jun Qingshang''s eyes turned cold, this girl was giving him some color and he was already opening up the Dye Workshop!


    "No." Yun Ruoleng stared at the jade pendant in his hand with a smile that was not a smile, "I just want to entertain Your Highness properly next time. Your majesty has thought too much. "


    "Yun Ruoleng, this king thinks that you are becoming more and more interesting." Unexpectedly, Jun Qingshang did not get angry, but instead smiled.


    Smiling faintly, Yun Ruoleng placed the jade pendant in his hands back into his pocket, and fearlessly stared at the pair of enchanting beautiful eyes: "Your Highness, please speak your mind! Don''t beat around the bush with me. "


    However, Jun Qingshang stood up and waved his hand, "It''s fine as long as you remember this duke''s favor."


    "I won''t owe you anything." Yun Ruoleng was startled, then his face darkened. However, if she knew that the consequences of his words were like that, she would definitely not agree to it.


    Receiving a satisfactory reply, Jun Qingshang walked out of the Academy with a smile.


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng begin to carefully examine the jade pendant with his eyes closed.


    At first, Yun Ruoleng did not feel anything, but after an unknown period of time, Yun Ruoleng felt that a huge source of energy was continuously surging into his body, unlocking every single meridian in his body. In the end, it slowly gathered in his mind, and became a densely packed set of words.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly opened his eyes, staring in front of him with reddened eyes, the things in his mind continuously played back, and he felt as though his head was about to explode.


    Yun Ruoleng subconsciously let go of the jade pendant in his hand, as he was finally free.


    "Miss, moisturizing throat tea ¡­" Miss, what''s wrong with you? " Peach red words suddenly stopped. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng''s entire body was dripping wet and even the hair on his forehead was also wet, she suddenly became anxious, "This servant will go and get a doctor right now!"


    "I''m fine." Yun Ruoleng however, waved his hand and put away the jade pendant. He smiled faintly at Peach Blossom, "Prepare hot water, I want to take a bath."


    "Miss?" Peach Red was a little confused, but her young miss didn''t seem to be in any danger. She finally let out a sigh of relief and turned around to leave. Who knew that just as he took a step, a blue figure would walk in.


    Yun Ruoleng stared at the uninvited guest in a displeased manner, "Didn''t father tell Big Sis to reflect on her mistake in the room? If my sister runs out like this, aren''t you afraid that my father will be angry? "


    "I''m not you, how can father really punish me!" Yun Yueyu scoffed, "You''re in such a sorry state, did you do anything shameful?"


    "Elder sister, if you come here to mock little sister, I''m afraid that will disappoint you." Yun Ruoleng''s gaze turned slightly cold, and the corners of his mouth raised, "Big Sister came late, Your Highness just left. However, if elder sister is fast, I believe that you can still catch up. "


    "Yun Ruoleng!" Yun Yueyu''s eyes were as round as bells ringing, and his tone was extremely venomous, "Less bringing out His Highness the Regent for trouble! I won''t let you off today! "


    "What is elder sister doing?" Yun Ruoleng squinted her eyes, looked at Yun Yueyu with a smile that was not really a smile, and said: "Little sister doesn''t understand, normal intelligent people would look at their own people with their own eyes, but big sister just happens to look at little sister who isn''t really worried."


    "No problem?" Yun Yueyu gnashed her teeth as she spat out these words.


    Recently, the Regent had clearly seen how good this little bitch was. She even said that she was fine because she thought she was stupid!


    "What are you all waiting for!" Yun Yueyu coldly snorted, and instructed the few nanny s behind him, "Quickly lock her in the Little Black Room!"


    Little Black Room? Yun Ruoleng frowned, could it be that broken hut he woke up in?


    Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to react, the nanny behind Yun Yueyu had already begun to move, they were all surrounding Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart slightly sunk, but there was not the slightest bit of panic on his face: "Elder sister, don''t forget, the current Leng Er is no longer the Leng Er of the past.


    Yun Yueyu''s face sank. She wasn''t stupid, for the past few days from her father''s attitude, Yun Ruoleng had indeed gained a bit of status in his heart. But this couldn''t change her original intentions today.


    Peach Blossom subconsciously blocked in front of Yun Ruoleng, "Which one of you dares!? If Your Highness finds out that the young miss is treating the Seventh Miss like this, the Duke won''t let you off! "

 C46

    "Slut!" You actually dare to threaten me! "


    Yun Yueyu could not bear to hear the Regent King defend Yun Ruoleng the most.


    Peach Red looked at the ferocious Yun Yueyu and subconsciously shrunk her neck back. However, she still steadily stood in front of Yun Ruoleng, with a resolute expression on her face.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, as though he was in a difficult situation, "Since elder sister is so insistent, little sister has nothing to say."


    "You''re quite tactful!" Yun Yueyu snorted, his eyes filled with pride, the slut was a slut, and just like that, he gave in, unable to hold himself up any longer, he shouted, "Take both of them!"


    Yun Ruoleng waved away the hands of the nanny s that were preparing to grab her, and said with disdain: "I will leave myself!"


    With that, Yun Ruoleng walked out. After exiting the room, Yun Ruoleng''s footsteps became faster and faster, and the nanny behind him quickly followed. When they realized where they were going, their faces all changed, but it was too late to stop them now.


    "Daughter greets father." Yun Ruoleng quickly headed towards the pavilion that Yun Shicheng frequented, and just as expected, he saw this cheap father reading in the pavilion. This way of looking at it, he actually had a bit of the bearing of a scholar.


    It was just that this stomach was filled with hypocrisy and evil tricks. Pursing his lips, Yun Ruoleng stood up and stood beside Yun Shicheng. Calmly looking at the nanny who were standing not too far away, and neither coming nor not from them, the corner of his mouth hooked up into a cold smile.


    Yun Shicheng looked at the respectfully saluted Yun Ruoleng with satisfaction: "Where are you heading to?"


    "Big Sis said I seduced the Regent and wanted to send me to the Quiet Room!" "But my daughter didn''t do anything. She only spoke a few words with the Regent King, could it be that when the Regent asked him questions, my daughter is going to pretend that she doesn''t know anything or just ignore him?"


    Yun Shicheng''s face slightly darkened. "This is simply nonsense!"


    "Daughter doesn''t dare ¡­"


    "I didn''t say anything about you." Yun Shicheng reached out to help Yun Ruoleng up, and comfortingly patted her slender shoulder. The consoling tone was very obvious, and he immediately asked, "Where is your big sister?"


    "He should still be in his daughter''s yard." Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, his gaze swept across the few nanny s that slowly walked over, covering the cold intent in his eyes, and said. They are accomplices! "


    "Please spare my life!" As soon as Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, the group of nanny s knelt in front of Yun Ruoleng and shouted, "Miss, please spare us! This is all under the order of the young miss, this humble servant dares not disobey. "


    Yun Ruoleng bit her lips. "Father?" She was certain that Yun Shicheng would help her. After all, as a father, she was hoping to sell this girl for honor!


    After a moment of silence, Yun Shicheng pointed at the nanny on the ground, his face dripping with black. Leng Er, be at ease, I will definitely give you an explanation. "


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, his eyes filled with admiration. When Yun Shicheng turned around, he looked down and revealed a faint smile to nanny who was kneeling on the ground.


    If you want to fight with me, you''ll have to see if you have the capability!


    Yun Shicheng still hoped that Yun Ruoleng could climb up to the Regent King, so naturally, he wouldn''t make Yun Ruoleng dissatisfied with his father. Just as Yun Ruoleng had said, Yun Shicheng had already started walking towards the Ao Xue Yuan.


    "Father, father ¡­" Yun Yueyu looked in shock at Yun Shicheng who walked in, and then his gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng who was behind Yun Shicheng. His expression immediately changed: "Why are you still here, you little bitch?"


    "Shut up!" Yun Shicheng''s face was gloomy, filled with anger.


    "Elder sister, you and I were born of the same root, and we were born of the same father. If I were a slut, how would you be any good? " Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes slightly rose as he replied back with a sarcastic tone.


    Yun Yueyu had been spoiled in the palm of his hand since childhood, so no one had ever scolded her in the slightest. Today, after being scolded by Yun Ruoleng in a roundabout way, he naturally would not swallow his anger. "Bitch is born to a bitch, my mother''s status is noble, how can you be on par with me!"


    "Tsk tsk ¡­" Yun Ruoleng sighed, "So it turns out that Big Sister and Mother are even closer, Father heard it."


    Only then did Yun Yueyu realize what he had said, but he could not take back what he had said. He opened his mouth to explain.


    How could Yun Ruoleng give her that chance? She sneered: "So it turns out that big sister''s heart is always set on the Lan family! Looks like in the eyes of older sister and First Madam, father still cannot compare to the power of the Lan family. "


    After saying that, Yun Ruoleng let out a faint sigh, and indeed, the expression on his face darkened even more.


    "You ¡­"


    "Enough!" Yun Shicheng''s face was so dark that it looked like it was about to cry. He looked at Yun Yueyu with a furious gaze and waved his hands, "Miss Fu, please go back! Do not come out for half a month! "


    "Father, are you trying to put me under house arrest?" Yun Yueyu stared at Yun Shicheng in disbelief.


    Yun Shicheng did not even look at Yun Yueyu, and directly waved his hand, signalling the servant woman to bring Yun Ruyu away.


    Yun Yueyu wanted to struggle, but he couldn''t do anything about the servant girl''s strength. He could only glare angrily at Yun Ruoleng as the figure in front of him became smaller and smaller.


    With Yun Yueyu being placed under house arrest, Yun Ruoleng''s days naturally became a lot more free, and he started to focus on painting and selling his money. Coincidentally, Jun Qingshang also did not come recently.


    "What are you doing ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s brush paused for a bit as his mind went into a daze, but he immediately spat out, "Hmph, who cares what he does, it''s definitely not good to run into him! It''s better to not see them at all! "


    After coming up with this answer, Yun Ruoleng felt his whole body becoming comfortable, and secretly decided that he would stay far away from Jun Qingshang in the future, and it would be best if he never to see him again.


    Ever since he contracted the jade pendant, Yun Ruoleng seemed to have gained unprecedented inspiration, the paintings in his hands became even more intelligent, and the price naturally increased accordingly.


    When Yun Ruoleng carried the painting into Ying Feng Auction House for the fifth time, the Head Manager did not have his usual arrogant attitude anymore.


    "Leng Yun, what painting did you get this time?" the steward asked with a smile.


    "Manager, you''ll know when you see it." Yun Ruoleng pushed the painting into the manager''s hands, his eyebrows raised, "Take a look, what''s the best price?"


    "Seeing your mysterious expression, it can''t be some big creation, right?" The manager said as he opened the painting doubtfully.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and did not speak, which piqued the overseer''s curiosity.


    The manager lowered his head to take a look, and he froze on the spot.


    "How is it?" Yun Ruoleng raised his delicate eyebrows. Even though he was dressed in men''s clothes, it still couldn''t block her peerless appearance.

 C47

    The manager trembled as he held the painting in his hand. His eyes shone as he looked at Yun Ruoleng: "Do you need me to recommend you?"


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly, what was the situation now? Introducing what?


    "You have such great talent. Do you need me to introduce you to my master?" The supervisor saw that Yun Ruoleng was confused and quickly explained, "My master is someone who cherishes talented people as much as his life. If you were under him, your future would be limitless."


    "I''ve always liked to be free and easy. Plus, I don''t like to be subservient to others either, so thank you Manager for your love." Yun Ruoleng rejected decisively and switched the topic to the painting, "Manager, why don''t you name a price!"


    It was already annoying that he had a deal with the Regent, so Yun Ruoleng decided not to involve himself in any strange things.


    Yun Ruoleng''s words made the steward sigh in disappointment. He wanted to persuade him a little more, but he saw that Yun Ruoleng was already drinking his tea, and obviously did not want to talk about this topic anymore. He could only regretfully say: "Forget it, I''ll go and ask the price of this painting!"


    Nodding his head, Yun Ruoleng looked at the manager''s leaving figure and furrowed his brows. Just now, the manager said that today was a huge auction, and before he left, he did not forget to tell Yun Ruoleng that today''s auction was about a Smoke Water Spirit Jade that was rarely seen in a hundred years.


    Although he did not know what the Smoke Water Spirit Jade was, Yun Ruoleng still wanted to watch the show.


    Yun Ruoleng asked the servant for an inconspicuous VIP room, he didn''t know if the attendant had specially arranged this place, but Yun Ruoleng felt that this place was pretty good, and that he could clearly see the situation downstairs.


    As he sat in the distinguished guest seat and looked at the crowded second floor, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed. It seems that the Smoke Water Spirit Jade is indeed a good item, otherwise, how could there be so many people fighting over it?


    "Cousin, don''t worry. We will definitely buy the Smoke Water Spirit Jade."


    Eh? Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up. Why does this voice sound so much like that big sister''s voice?


    "What am I worried about?" The man''s voice came from the other side of the room, carrying a faint stench of copper, "More than money, hmph! These people''s money is really not enough! "


    Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly, this rich young master was truly a frog in the well, there were many people in the world who were richer than him. He really didn''t know anything.


    His eyes turned, Yun Ruoleng smiled, and spoke while pinching his throat: "You are just a rich son who took his parents'' blood and sweat money to please women, you really think you are something!"


    "You are determined to win?" The other party seemed to have not expected that their conversation would be heard by someone and that they would even invite contempt. As a child of a wealthy family in a large family, naturally they would not let it go so easily.


    "Anyone in this position has a chance to obtain it!"


    "But whether or not we can buy it depends on our abilities." The male voice next door seemed to be patient, but it did not flare up on the spot.


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to be very satisfied with this result, and did not continue speaking. Yun Yueyu''s stifled voice came out from the room next door: "Who is he! What right do you have to say that about us? "


    "Don''t cause trouble anymore!"


    "But cousin, aren''t you angry that he said that to you?"


    "When the time comes, we''ll get the item. It''s not too late for us to go out and clean him up." The man smiled and comforted her, he even purposefully raised his voice a little, obviously speaking for Yun Ruoleng to hear.


    "Humph!" I must get the thing and see if he still has the face to boast later! " Yun Yueyu snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain.


    The man who was called "cousin" sighed helplessly, but he didn''t say anything.


    When Yun Ruoleng heard this, the smile on her face became even more obvious, this was what she had been waiting for.


    As nightfall approached, the auction finally began. The host of the auction was still the woman in red. She was surrounded by several women in white holding lanterns. The women on the stage were dancing gracefully, causing the woman in red to appear even more beautiful.


    The third floor was a luxurious room, where a man was leaning against the soft ground. He was holding his painting with one hand and supporting his head with the other, while the silver mask covered most of his face.


    "Mistress, how should I sell this painting?" When the manager saw the expression on his master''s face, he was overjoyed. This painting was probably going to be sold at a high price.


    "Although this painting is a very simple landscape painting, it has pure magical power and can prolong one''s life if you look at it for a long time. This kind of painting is extremely skillful, and it can only be created by someone who has pure magical power." The man paused, "The starting price is thirty thousand silver taels, this is not considered expensive."


    "Yes sir!" The overseer came out of the room happily with the painting in his arms.


    Waiting until everyone had left, the man stood up and walked to the window. He opened the window a little, just in time to see Yun Ruoleng''s position clearly.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his head at the same time to look at this position. The man''s eyes flashed slightly, and turned back to his own soft couch.


    When that gaze disappeared, Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief. For some reason, that gaze was too passionate, making it hard for her to breathe.


    The first item the host took out was a dagger. The starting price was 5,000 silver. In the end, it was bought by a person in the public chat.


    The second item was a vase that was said to have been passed down for 300 years. The starting price was 10,000 taels of silver.


    Following it were screens, paintings, jade, etc.


    Yun Ruoleng''s painting was bought by the people in the VIP room for a hundred thousand silver, which surprised Yun Ruoleng a little. This price seemed to be higher than what she had imagined ¡­


    The Smoke Water Spirit Jade that everyone had been waiting for had finally appeared. As the finale for tonight, it had a unique style to it. The women on the stage retreated in succession, and then the fairies scattered while the three masked women descended from the sky, slowly landing in the middle of the stage. The leading lady held onto a tray, and walked over to the host with light footsteps.


    The master of ceremonies nodded at her, then lifted the red cloth off the tray. A pale green jade appeared in front of everyone.


    Yun Ruoleng stretched out his neck, and after taking a clear look at what the material looked like, he squinted his eyes. Although the jade was green, the color of the mist would appear after a long time in the air.


    Other than Yun Ruoleng, the rest of the people also exclaimed, and before the host could say anything, someone already started asking for the price.


    "Everyone, quiet down." The host was used to seeing this sort of scene. With a bright smile, he said lightly, "I know that everyone wants to take this item, but this auction is different from the previous ones.

 C48

    "The auction this time will depend on the fated." The driver said with a faint smile.


    The entire hall was silent for a moment. It was obvious that they had their doubts.


    Seeing this, the host chuckled: "Everyone, please look at the empty cup next to you. Please drip a drop of blood into the cup."


    Although everyone was puzzled, they still followed his instructions. Yun Ruoleng was no exception.


    When the host saw this, he let go of the special box that contained the Smoke Water Spirit Jade. After it was untied, "Whoosh!" He disappeared on the spot in an instant.


    Everyone exclaimed, even Yun Ruoleng, a person from the 21st century was surprised, it was like a spirit object recognizing its owner in a movie. The Smoke Water Spirit Jade rushed into the VIP room that Yun Ruoleng was in, stopped in front of him, jumped up and down, then went into the cup, and sucked all the blood down.


    "¡­" What the hell? Yun Ruoleng''s face instantly darkened, she did not want to buy it!


    Besides, she didn''t have the money to buy it!


    The Smoke Water Spirit Jade seemed to be very intelligent. It did not seem to be satisfied after drinking it and even went around in circles in front of Yun Ruoleng a few times.


    This action caused the entire audience to quiet down. The host immediately stated his request: "Congratulations VIP number 7. After you, Yan Shui Ling, acknowledge your master, you will need to hand over an item to Feng Ying."


    Yun Ruoleng stared at the Smoke Water Spirit Jade in front of him coldly, and spoke with a dark face: "What if I don''t have it?"


    "It doesn''t matter if you don''t have it. After all, it was Yan Shui Spirit Jade that chose you." The host was stunned. She didn''t think that anyone would dislike Smoke Water Spirit Jade.


    "Tell me what?" Yun Ruoleng said blandly. He glanced at the Smoke Water Spirit Jade and thought that this thing was extremely intelligent, it seemed to have gained intelligence. There was no harm in staying in his own body.


    "Young master, you only need to leave behind what you''re most adept at." The host''s words caused an uproar.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled for a few seconds, then stood up and walked towards the backstage.


    The supervisor was already waiting for Yun Ruoleng inside. When he saw Yun Ruoleng come in, he let out a complicated sigh: "Leng Yun, this Smoke Water Spirit Jade is divided into different levels, and this piece in your hands is a treasure that is hard to find in a thousand years. Since it has recognized you as its master, then you must have some extraordinary qualities.


    Sweeping his eyes across the Smoke Water Spirit Jade, Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly and asked softly, "Can I return the goods?"


    "Cough cough!" Are you stupid? It can''t be that you actually want to return the goods at such a chance! " The supervisor was infuriated. He felt that Leng Yun had not been well-received yet.


    Yun Ruoleng unhappily glared at the supervisor, and said helplessly: "Didn''t you say that it is a once in a thousand year experience, and that I had it in my hands, telling everyone to quickly come and snatch it? I haven''t lived long enough! "


    Hearing that, the manager was enlightened, but he laughed and helplessly advised: "But it has already been contracted with you! "I''m afraid it''s impossible even if I don''t want to."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng sighed helplessly, she had just caused herself a huge trouble!


    Furthermore, this problem was one that could not be thrown away, thus, the gaze that Yun Ruoleng had towards the Smoke Water Spirit Jade became more and more disdainful.


    The Smoke Water Spirit Jade was a very spiritual piece of jade. It could completely feel Yun Ruoleng''s unhappiness, thus it flew in front of Yun Ruoleng and shook the place.


    Was he acting cute? Yun Ruoleng was a little speechless. If the kitten and dog rubbed against her legs, perhaps it could melt her heart a little. But how could such a piece of jade be cute when it was circling in the sky?


    Looking at the piece of jade which was obviously convinced of her appearance, Yun Ruoleng glared at it once more: "You better hide, otherwise, if someone takes it away, I won''t save you."


    With that said, Yan Shui Spirit Jade seemed to contract and ran into Yun Ruoleng''s embrace like a wisp of smoke.


    Yun Ruoleng, "..."


    Supervisor: "..."


    As a trade, Yun Ruoleng drew a mountain and river painting in the middle and gave it to the manager. After looking at it, the manager stared at Yun Ruoleng in disbelief for a few seconds before leaving happily with the painting in his hands.


    Yun Ruoleng did not think too much into it. After taking the silver that should have belonged to her, she waved her fan and left satisfied.


    What Yun Ruoleng did not know was that today, after her painting was sold for a sky-high price, she instantly became famous, because there were very few people who could use magic power to paint, and furthermore the painting was so exquisite, it was hard to find.


    After Yun Ruoleng left, the third floor''s window was instantly opened. In an angle that Yun Ruoleng did not see, the silver masked man looked meaningfully at the room she had stayed in before.


    "Miss, you''re finally back." Seeing that Yun Ruoleng had returned, Tao Hong heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "Miss, did you meet Miss when you were returning?"


    "No, did something happen?" Yun Ruoleng shook his head tiredly.


    Tao Hong heaved a sigh of relief and pushed Yun Ruoleng into the room: "The nephew of the First Madam family came today, and the lord released the young miss.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze darkened slightly. First Madam''s mother was from one of the Four Great Clans in the capital, it was natural that Yun Shicheng did not dare to offend her, it was also natural that Yun Yueyu would be released.


    But like this, he was afraid that the scar on Yun Shicheng''s heart would become deeper and deeper.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered in his heart. This time, the First Madam was probably wrong in the opposite direction.


    When Peach Blossom saw her young miss was still so calm, she could not help but ask, "My lady, are you not afraid of my young miss seizing this opportunity to launch a counterattack?"


    Laughing, Yun Ruoleng shook her head: "She won''t."


    "That''s good." Peach Blossom immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and after changing Yun Ruoleng''s clothes, she smiled and said, "Young miss has been busy all afternoon, this servant has prepared dinner, let''s have dinner first!"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng casually replied. Right now, her mind was not about the matter of eating, but how to destroy the image of First Madam that she had built up for all these years in front of Yun Shicheng.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng sat in the courtyard with the Smoke Water Spirit Jade in her hands, and studied the Smoke Water Spirit Jade in her hands, her jade-like hands lightly poking at it, "What are you used for?"


    The Smoke Water Spirit Jade seemed to enjoy Yun Ruoleng''s curious look towards it. Its body trembled slightly, and it happily circled around Yun Ruoleng.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s small face darkened, "If you continue acting like this, I won''t care about you anymore!"


    After hearing what was said, the Smoke Water Spirit Jade suddenly stopped in front of Yun Ruoleng and instantly became quiet.


    He grabbed the Smoke Water Spirit Jade in his hand and started to study it again.


    "Miss, Big Miss is here." Suddenly, Peach Blossom hurriedly ran in. Because she ran too fast, her breathing was unstable.

 C49

    Yun Ruoleng calmly placed the Smoke Water Spirit Jade back into his pocket and said, "Prepare some tea."


    "But Miss, the Eldest Miss looks like she''s obviously looking for trouble. Should we not meet?" Peach Blossom was already trying to find a variety of excuses for her young miss to not see her. She was waiting for Yun Ruoleng to tell her that he was not going to see him.


    However, Yun Ruoleng didn''t have any intention to worry at all, and laughed coldly in disdain: "She can''t do anything to me yet."


    "Then, then this servant will go make the tea now." As Peach Blossom left, she looked at Yun Ruoleng with a conflicted expression.


    As soon as Peach Blossom left, Yun Yueyu entered the Academy. Looking at Yun Ruoleng who was playing with the cup leisurely, he suddenly spoke with ridicule, "Little sister has been getting more and more ignorant of the rules and regulations lately!"


    Yun Ruoleng stood up from his seat, and turned around with feigned astonishment, blinking his eyes: "When did big sister come? How could my sister not know? "


    The meaning behind his words was that no one would say that Yun Yueyu had barged into his own courtyard, so she had no right to say that she was him.


    Yun Yueyu grinded his teeth in anger, but had to reply: "Sister''s courtyard has too few people, so no one reported her to me. In a while, I will find Mother to buy some decent servants for sister."


    "I won''t trouble elder sister." Yun Ruoleng gently smiled and immediately rejected, "Younger sister, calm down."


    Yun Yueyu gave a light snort and did not answer. Behind her, Mo Shu pulled on her sleeve and softly reminded her: "Miss, do not forget your purpose for coming today."


    It was only then that Yun Yueyu remembered why he had come to the Ao Xue Yuan today. He immediately calmed himself down and said to Yun Ruoleng: "Little sister, since it''s so boring anyway, why don''t you accompany big sister on a tour around the garden?"


    To visit the garden? Yun Ruoleng''s eyes darkened, he was afraid that wandering in the garden was a lie, someone with ulterior motives must be for real! Yun Ruoleng was not afraid, he nodded: "Alright! "Wait until little sister changes."


    Yun Ruoleng did not forget that he had not only a jade pendant on him, but also a Smoke Water Spirit Jade.


    Unexpectedly, Yun Yueyu, for the first time in the world, did not make things difficult for Yun Ruoleng, and only nodded his head lightly.


    When he turned around and returned to his room, Yun Ruoleng had already changed his clothes.


    After Yun Ruoleng changed his clothes, he went to the garden with Yun Yueyu. The two sisters seemed to be in harmony with each other, but those who truly understood the relationship between the two of them would definitely be trembling with fear.


    Yun Ruoleng followed beside Yun Yueyu and came to the lotus pond where Yun Yueyu had fallen into the water last time. The two sisters were like last time, standing on the shore and chatting.


    "Look, sister! The lotus flowers are blooming beautifully today!" A smile hung on Yun Yueyu''s beautiful face, if the schemes in her eyes were removed, she would look really beautiful.


    However, Yun Ruoleng frowned, "Big sister is really magnanimous, I just fell in last time, and it was barely a few days before I came to admire the flowers. "Sister, you''re not as good as me."


    Yun Ruoleng was like a refrigerated machine, once he said that, Yun Yueyu coughed lightly in embarrassment: "Just pay attention today."


    "Yes." But is there something you want to tell your sister? " Yun Ruoleng took the chance to ask, but she noticed that Yun Yueyu''s eyes were drooping as though she was thinking about something, and was about to raise her head when Yun Ruoleng deliberately sighed, "Since big sister doesn''t want to say it, then don''t say it! Anyway, my sister is not interested in listening. "


    "You ¡­" Yun Yueyu was startled, then reacted, immediately becoming angry, "Yun Ruoleng, who do you think you are! Why should I listen to your commands! "


    "Tsk tsk ¡­" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "Big sister, are you getting angry out of embarrassment?"


    "Don''t use too much provocation!" Yun Yueyu was so angry that his face turned green.


    "Since elder sister is angry, then I won''t disturb you here." Yun Ruoleng sincerely sighed, turned around and walked away, and his footsteps could not help but speed up a little. She had a kind of bad feeling that it was possible that Yun Yueyu wanted to do something in her Ao Xue Yuan.


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng leaving, Yun Yueyu did not stop her, but instead, raised the corner of his mouth slightly.


    After returning to the Ao Xue Yuan, Yun Ruoleng immediately instructed Peach Blossom: "Search everywhere, see if anyone has moved anywhere. Remember, move quickly."


    "Yes sir!" Although Peach Blossom did not know what exactly happened, she looked at the anxious Yun Ruoleng and did not ask anything. She quickly started to check with Yun Ruoleng.


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Blossom suddenly cried out in alarm, "Where did this thing come from?"


    Yun Ruoleng put down the thing in his hand and looked at it carefully. His face immediately became green: "Where else could I have gotten it from, throw it into the fire and burn it."


    "Yes sir!" Peach Blossom also knew that this would be a fatal blow to Yun Ruoleng''s reputation, so she took it and turned to leave, not saying a single word.


    However, not long after Peach Red entered the kitchen, the door of Ao Xue Yuan burst open. Yun Ruoleng stood in the courtyard and looked at the group of people led by First Madam.


    "Yes sir!" The attendants behind First Madam quickly dispersed and entered the various rooms in the Ao Xue Yuan to search.


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, "What does First Madam mean by this?"


    "You''ll know when you see it!" First Madam calmly threw a letter in front of Yun Ruoleng, and said coldly, "Seventh Miss is getting more and more ignorant, it seems that I should get a nanny to properly teach me."


    Yun Ruoleng did not reply. He picked up the letter from the ground, coldly swept a glance, and sneered: "Is this the reason why Mother convicted Leng Er?"


    "Of course not!" First Madam''s eyes flashed. She was not stupid like Yun Yueyu. She had prepared two things just to take care of this little bitch Yun Ruoleng.


    "Then, in order to prove my innocence, are we waiting for them to search?" Yun Ruoleng''s voice suddenly became colder, "But what if those people bring their dirty things in to slander me? So how can the First Madam know if what you just said is true? "


    "Stop slandering us here!" Yun Yueyu, who had not spoken since the beginning, finally found a chance to speak, "Do you think everyone is as shameless as you?!"


    "What do you mean, big sister?" Yun Ruoleng pretended not to understand, and looked at her: "You mean that I really did such a thing? Then let me ask big sister, even if this is the case, what can you do to me? "


    "If you are such a shameless woman, how could His Highness still like you?" Yun Yueyu coldly snorted.


    "Elder sister, are you sick?" Yun Ruoleng finally could not hold it in anymore, "For a man to reach such a state, if you''re not crazy, then you''re stupid."


    "Yun Ruoleng! "You little slut, you actually scolded me!" After Yun Yueyu finished speaking, he pounced towards Yun Ruoleng.

 C50

    Yun Ruoleng tilted his body slightly and successfully dodged Yun Yueyu''s attack.


    "Enough!" When the First Madam saw this, he shouted coldly and slapped the table to stop them from doing anything, "Wait till after you have finished searching for something!"


    Yun Ruoleng coldly snorted in his heart: "If we don''t get it, how will First Madam compensate Leng Er?"


    "You didn''t find anything to prove your innocence, so why are you asking for compensation?" First Madam''s tone was cold, she truly hated Yun Ruoleng to the extreme.


    "First Madam doesn''t forget, this is related to Leng Er''s reputation. If father knew about this, I''m afraid it wouldn''t be this simple!" The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth rose slightly.


    Yun Yueyu coldly snorted, "You want to use your father to threaten us? "What a pity, Father will not interfere in this matter."


    However, First Madam frowned: "What do you want?"


    "Leng Er doesn''t want much, it''s just that from today onwards, First Madam and Big Sis don''t rashly come to my place." Yun Ruoleng faintly smiled as he stared at First Madam''s darkening face.


    The First Madam did not react in the end, he only nodded his head, "If you are innocent, it won''t be too late to talk about this matter later."


    "Alright!" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes carried a smile, as if he did not care in the slightest.


    The calmer Yun Ruoleng was, the more panicked he felt as he continuously turned his head back to look at First Madam. The First Madam looked at her, telling her to be patient, and Yun Yueyu finally calmed down.


    After searching for an unknown amount of time, the servant walked out and shook his head, indicating that he didn''t find anything.


    First Madam''s face became uglier and uglier. Her exquisite makeup slightly darkened as she said, "Look for yourself carefully. If you have the slightest bit of protection, be careful of your little life!"


    "Your servant was looking for it carefully. I didn''t see anything related to men or women secretly accepting items." The attendant who was kneeling on the ground had cold sweat dripping down his forehead, afraid that he would accidentally lose his life.


    First Madam swept his gaze across the servants kneeling on the ground, then glanced at nanny behind him, and said: "For Seventh Miss''s reputation, go and search his body."


    Yun Ruoleng''s face sank. "What do you mean by that, First Madam?"


    "Yun Ruoleng, is this how you speak to your mother?" Yun Yueyu''s face was cold as she said angrily, "Hurry up and go search!"


    "Yes sir!" Two robust nanny walked out from behind First Madam, wanting to get close to Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng coldly swept a glance at the two people who were approaching them. "If you can''t find anything, then your lives will be mine. "How about it?"


    The two nanny s paused in their steps and subconsciously turned their heads to look at First Madam.


    First Madam laughed coldly, "Do you think that just because it''s like this I won''t dare to search?"


    "First Madam caused such a huge commotion, wasn''t it only because they wanted to splash dirty water on Leng Er?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "It''s a pity, there definitely won''t be anything that Leng Er hasn''t done before."


    "How do we know if you''ve done it or not!" Seeing Yun Ruoleng being humiliated, Yun Yueyu''s mood immediately became much better, he turned around and shouted at the people beside him, "Do it!"


    Yun Ruoleng coldly swept a glance at the two people who wanted to approach her, and in the end, without saying anything more, he opened his arms wide for them to search.


    "Madam, we found this!" A jade pendant suddenly appeared in nanny''s hand.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, without waiting for her to speak, he sneered: "Yo, your adulterer is actually very rich! I can''t bear to give you such a good piece of jade. "


    "What else do you have to say for yourself!" First Madam took the jade and said with a gloomy face. But Yun Ruoleng could see the smile in her eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the mother and daughter with disdain, and said coldly: "This jade is called Han Yu, and was given to you by the Regent King when he went out with him. If you don''t believe me, you can ask him."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng and First Madam both had twisted expressions.


    Yun Ruoleng added on as if it was not a big deal, "After I came back, I even told Father about this! And this jade was personally made for me by His Highness. "


    "You ¡­" First Madam glared coldly at Yun Ruoleng with eyes that were about to spew fire.


    Yun Ruoleng shrugged his shoulders indifferently, didn''t these people want to use such despicable methods to harm her? Then she would let them know that the more they cared, the more she would say!


    Yun Yueyu was so angry that his face turned green but he had no choice. First Madam took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart and said: Who knows if what you said is true or not? Go and deliver the jade pendant to the Regent.


    "Yes sir!" nanny, who had just found the jade pendant, responded and left with it.


    Yun Ruoleng stood in the center of the courtyard, thoughtfully looking at the door, he didn''t know if that man with a venomous mouth would admit to such a thing.


    "Is my sister worried or scared?" Yun Yueyu saw that the expression on her face kept changing unpredictably, as if she had thought of something, and continued to speak, "Don''t tell me you were just randomly making up an excuse to trick us? "Thankfully mother is smart and wants to personally ask His Royal Highness."


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at her, then said: "Do you think everyone is as free as you?"


    "What do you mean?" The expression on Yun Ruoleng''s face stiffened.


    "I don''t mean anything." Yun Ruoleng paused, and did not intend to say much.


    Not long after, nanny came back, and looked at Yun Ruoleng meaningfully: "This servant couldn''t enter the Regent¡¯s Mansion, but I met a guard beside the Regent King. He told this servant, that this jade pendant was indeed personally bestowed by the Prince to Seventh Miss."


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, he knew that this was probably not a coincidence. Although he knew that the nanny would not be able to enter the Regent¡¯s Mansion, it was clear that the man had arranged this encounter with An Ying.


    First Madam also did not expect the relationship between Yun Ruoleng and the Regent to be so good. In the end, he sighed, "Since it''s a misunderstanding, it''s fine if it''s resolved."


    First Madam knew that he would definitely not win against Yue Yang if he continued to pester him.


    Seeing that First Madam was about to leave, Yun Ruoleng suddenly spoke coldly: "Have you forgotten? Firstly, from today onwards, no one is allowed to step even half a step into the Ao Xue Yuan without permission. Secondly, you need to leave these two nanny s for your daughter to handle. "


    "Why!" Yun Yueyu was immediately enraged. After hearing what she said, she did not care about her face at all as she bellowed, "I am a dignified direct daughter, yet I don''t dare to speak to my mother in such a manner. How dare a lowly concubine like you!"


    "Just because you created something from nothing, and even allowed you to sully the things of His Highness, the Regent, as you wish." "This piece of jade was gifted to me by the Regent King. Since they were tainted by the two nanny, it''s more than enough for them to die a thousand times."


    She handed over the jade pendant. When she took it back, she definitely had to take back some interest.


    "You ¡­"


    "Enough!" First Madam glared at Yun Ruoleng with a dark expression. "From now on, I don''t care about the Ao Xue Yuan anymore!"

 C51

    "Thank you, First Madam, for your understanding."


    Yun Ruoleng smiled at Yun Yueyu, he was so angry that Yun Yueyu wanted to pounce at Yun Ruoleng and tear off her face.


    The matter today had gotten out of hand, and at night, Yun Shicheng had someone deliver something to Yun Ruoleng, saying that Seventh Miss had suffered a grievance today, so these things could be considered compensation.


    Yun Ruoleng did not have any thoughts about it, and after he accepted it, he went to the study room to thank Yun Shicheng.


    As for the Snowy District, it was in an uproar.


    When Yun Ruoleng found out that Yun Yueyu had stayed up late into the night because of what happened yesterday, the corners of his mouth could not help but raise up slightly: "Peach Blossom, the weather today is good, let''s go and bask in the sun!"


    "In my opinion, young miss is in a good mood!" After tidying up the items on the table, Peach Red joked with a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng did not deny it and walked out of the room while smiling. Peach Blossom immediately chased after them. "Miss, the sun is scorching outside, why don''t you hold on to an umbrella?"


    Yun Ruoleng, on the other hand, did not refuse. Holding onto his paper umbrella, he walked happily towards the back of the Ao Xue Yuan.


    "Miss, wait for me!" Tao Hong followed behind Yun Ruoleng, as though she could not keep up with Yun Ruoleng''s footsteps, and could not help but ask, "Why are we going to the backyard?"


    "I remember there was a pot of flowers a few days ago. I was just interested and wanted to take a look." Yun Ruoleng said as his footsteps slowed down.


    Peach Blossom stared at Yun Ruoleng''s back with wide eyes. She was a little surprised: "Miss, this is the first time you''re so free!"


    "Of course, as long as the mother and daughter pair don''t cause trouble, your young miss will have much more free time."


    "Then Miss, what are you going to do next?" Peach Blossom paused. "I was just wondering if I could help you share your worries."


    "I already have quite a bit of money on hand. There are some things I can really do." Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised in a slight arc, a trace of light flashing across his eyes.


    Peach Red tilted her head and blinked her eyes in puzzlement. "Miss, what did you think of?"


    "Nothing." Yun Ruoleng smiled mysteriously as his footsteps quickened his pace.


    At the same time, within the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Jun Qingshang was standing in a pavilion by the pond, his expression cold.


    "Done." An Ying stood outside the pavilion, not daring to approach.


    "What''s the reaction from Minister Yun''s side?" Jun Qingshang asked indifferently.


    "After Minister Yun found out that the jade pendant was from you, he asked First Madam for more than an hour''s worth of words. Although he does not know what they said, he did not look good when he came out, and was probably threatened by First Madam."


    "Lan family?" The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth lifted slightly, and said with a cold voice. "It''s time for these four great families to change their names."


    An Ying subconsciously shuddered, "This subordinate feels that their existence can be suppressed."


    "Is that so?" Disdain flashed across Jun Qingshang''s eyes as he said coldly, "If we can balance it out, then why would we, the Jun Family, need to do anything? It is certain that the four great families will change their names. As for when they will change their names, that will depend on the timing. "


    "Master is wise." An Ying broke out in a cold sweat for the members of the Four Major Clans. Master was too powerful, if they really wanted to exchange for him, those people had no way of resisting!


    "What is Yun Ruoleng doing during this period of time?" When Jun Qingshang thought about the little wild cat, who only knew how to bite people, his eyebrows unconsciously knitted together.


    "Seventh Miss seems to be very busy lately, but her paintings are becoming more and more popular. Just a few days ago, I was getting rich ¡­ "


    "I''m not asking you to say that!" Jun Qingshang''s face turned slightly cold, "Tell me, what has she been doing recently?"


    "Seventh, Seventh Miss paints, reads and appreciates the beautiful scenery every day. After that, she would cause a ruckus with Young Miss Yun and the two of them. She would have harmless battles between sisters." An Ying paused, carefully moved back a step, and said softly, "But Seventh Miss does not seem to like fighting, so she has taught the young miss three times about how to please you, and even taught her how to practice her culinary arts."


    "Is that so?" Jun Qingshang''s thin lips slowly spat out two words, and even he did not realize that his expression had become even colder.


    That woman actually used him as an excuse to escape from trouble. Very good!


    An Ying was immediately so frightened that he did not dare speak anymore. Looking at his master''s murderous expression, An Ying felt that if he dared to say another word, he would probably end up feeding the fishes in the lotus pond.


    "Humph!" Jun Qingshang''s face was ashen, he shouted halfway, "Bring that woman here!"


    "Huh?" An Ying stood at the door, thinking that he had misheard and asked again, "Master, who did you say you wanted to bring?"


    "What do you think?" Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes as a dangerous aura burst forth from him.


    With a "sou" sound, An Ying disappeared from the spot. What a joke, if he did not leave now, blood would have splashed onto the ground. When Yun Ruoleng carried Yun Ruoleng all the way to the Regent¡¯s Mansion s, she was completely stupefied.


    It was rare for someone to have the mood to admire the flowers and get taken away for no reason. Everyone was unhappy, okay?


    Yun Ruoleng turned his eyes and saw the gloomy face of the man in front of him, and asked: "What does Your Highness mean by this?"


    "How do you explain that?" Jun Qingshang asked with a gloomy face.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng only felt a cold air seeping into his clothes, he reached out and tightened his clothes: "What does Your Highness want me to say?"


    "What do you think?" Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes and looked at Yun Ruoleng''s subtle movements, sneering in disdain, "Don''t make this king feel like bullying you."


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes and thought slander in his heart: Aren''t you bullying me?


    After getting up and walking in front of Yun Ruoleng, Jun Qingshang looked down at him from up high and said with a slight smirk, "Don''t pretend to be innocent, this king doesn''t buy into this."


    She was very innocent to begin with! Yun Ruoleng was feeling extremely aggrieved in his heart, but because of Jun Qingshang''s identity, he had to move back, and smiled apologetically: "Your Highness, did you misunderstand something? I have never said anything bad about His Highness. "


    "En!" Jun Qingshang could not help but nod, "Indeed not."


    "Then, the explanation Your Highness just gave, how can I explain it?" Yun Ruoleng immediately went on to say, she would not admit to anything else. As someone who had crossed over from a new era, having thick skin was a fundamental skill.


    "It''s not a misunderstanding!" Jun Qingshang said with a cold face and a slight sneer on his face, "This king has never misunderstood anyone."


    Liar! The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he couldn''t help but scold: "If you won''t misunderstand, then don''t tie me up here!"


    "Looks like This King has to remind you of something." Seeing that Yun Ruoleng still had a face full of innocence, Jun Qingshang leaned her body slightly forward, her lips curled up slightly, and slowly spat out two words: "Kitchen."


    The kitchen? Yun Ruoleng frowned: "Did Your Highness ask me to come here just to get me to cook?"


    Seeing Jun Qingshang''s expression, Yun Ruoleng felt that he had to continue acting dumb until the end.

 C52

    "What do you think?" Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng with a smile that was not a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes innocently: "Your Highness, I don''t know. "Or what do you want me to do?"


    Hearing that Yun Ruoleng was admitting it no matter what, a glint of interest flashed in Jun Qingshang''s eyes, but he did not expose it, and only said, "Since that''s the case, I have recently heard that there was an unexpected painter outside who seemed to be alive. How about Leng Er help this king find her? "


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart trembled, did this person guess her identity?


    Thinking about it, she did not seem to have exposed herself in front of Jun Qingshang, so she shook her head: "I was unable to find the Prince''s connections, could Leng Er have found them?"


    "It doesn''t matter if you can''t find it. Then, Leng Er will draw a picture of the Cantonese Lotus, and send it over in three days!" Jun Qingshang playfully raised the corner of his mouth, he was really curious to find out what kind of expression she would have after he exposed her.


    The words that Yun Ruoleng refused were right on the tip of his tongue, but when he saw Jun Qingshang''s unforgiving look, he simply agreed: "Alright, then shouldn''t Your Highness send me back? "Otherwise, my family will get into trouble."


    Jun Qingshang did not make things difficult for her, he nodded, and instructed An Ying to send her off.


    Little thing, one day you''ll stay with me.


    After returning to the Ao Xue Yuan, Yun Ruoleng was extremely depressed.


    Giving one to Jun Qingshang for free, she was really not happy at all.


    "Miss, I''ve just made a bowl of green bean porridge. Would you like to try it?" Seeing that Yun Ruoleng had returned, Tao Hong immediately went to cook the green bean porridge.


    Yun Ru frowned and said in a low voice, "I''m not in the mood to eat."


    "Did Miss encounter any trouble?" Peach Red suddenly remembered what happened this morning and asked hesitantly, "Where did that person take Miss today? At that time, this servant was completely terrified, and did not dare to look for Master. "


    "Regent¡¯s Mansion." Yun Ruoleng was immediately angered, she looked angrily at Peach Blossom, "Why are you asking so much? "Hurry up and bring the item over."


    Peach Blossom seemed to realize that her young miss didn''t want to talk about this anymore. She seemed to be annoyed, so she quickly replied and disappeared from the room. When she reappeared, she held a red lacquer tray in her hands.


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng absentmindedly nodded his head, he took the porcelain bowl and stirred it, and just as he was about to drink, he heard a loud noise coming from the courtyard.


    "What happened?" Yun Ruoleng placed the porcelain bowl on the table, then quickly stood up and walked out.


    Peach Blossom was scared out of her wits. Seeing Yun Ruoleng walking out, she patted her chest and quickly chased after him.


    "What kind of broken door is this!"


    The moment Yun Ruoleng walked through the door, he heard a mocking voice, "There''s actually such a shabby place in the rear courtyard of the Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    Second Young Master Lan, don''t go any further. Although this place is a little rundown, this is Seventh Miss''s courtyard! "You ¡­"


    "What can that useless trash do to this young master?" The man clearly disdained the words of persuasion from before.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly as he heard this. He turned around and instructed Peach Blossom, "Prepare a basin of water in your room, quickly."


    Peach Blossom did not ask any further questions. She turned around and walked into the kitchen, quickly carrying a basin of water with her.


    At this time, the man had already entered the courtyard and was walking into her room without any worries. Peach Blossom''s face was ashen, but just as she was about to speak, Yun Ruoleng held her back.


    Just as the man was about to step into the room, Yun Ruoleng threw a bucket of cold water on him.


    Ah!" The man who was splashed with water cried out in anger, "Who doesn''t have eyes!? "Since you dare to insult this young master!


    "The Yun Family does have a young master, but when did such a disobedient young master appear?" Yun Ruoleng''s cold voice sounded out leisurely.


    The man widened his eyes, and gasped after seeing Yun Ruoleng''s appearance. Immediately after, his eyes became lustful, and he rubbed his hands non-stop: "Who is the little lady? Am I really lonely in this backyard? "


    Yun Ruoleng''s little face was filled with dissatisfaction with the frost. I have witnessed it. "


    "Miss is as beautiful as a fairy. It is your fortune that our master has taken a liking to you." The attendant behind the man opened his mouth to speak up for his master, but his smile was extremely vulgar.


    "Orchid realm, the only direct son of the Lan family. He was held in the hands of the Lan family since he was young, right?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, and said in disdain, "Unfortunately, this is the Ao Xue Yuan, not the Lan Family!"


    "You''re that ugly bastard from the rumors?" Lan Rong came back to her senses. She seemed to have thought of something as she rubbed her chin and said, "I was just humiliated by my aunt and cousin." However, it''s fine. With your looks, this young master will definitely not treat you unfairly. "


    "Someone, come!" Yun Ruoleng was too lazy to waste words with him, "Hit him with a random stick!"


    "This ¡­" The servants in the Ao Xue Academy looked at Yun Ruoleng with hesitation.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted: "If anything happens to me, father will definitely kill you all!"


    The servant was so scared that he did not think about it anymore. Furthermore, Master had been attaching great importance to Seventh Miss recently, thus the attendant left without saying anything further, leaving him with a floor full of roars.


    "Miss, are you alright?" Peach Blossom was frightened quite badly by the scene just now. She tremblingly grabbed onto Yun Ruoleng''s arm, "Let''s go tell old master about what just happened."


    Yun Ruoleng indifferently glanced at Peach Blossom: "Do you think he wouldn''t know about what just happened? "It''s just that he wouldn''t offend such a huge backer just because of me."


    After all, the matter between her and the Regent wasn''t a foregone conclusion. There was no need to offend the Lan family for her.


    "Then what should we do?" Peach Blossom immediately became anxious and quickly said, "Second Young Master Lan only came once and then twice. His reputation in the outside world is not much better than First Madam''s reputation."


    "Don''t worry, Father will not dare to let the Rankers mess around." The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised in ridicule. Yun Shicheng wanted to use him to hook up with the Regent King, so he would not let the Orchid Roc Realm do anything out of line with him.


    Although Peach Blossom was extremely nervous, looking at Yun Ruoleng''s calm and collected appearance, she suddenly felt at ease. "This servant will cook another bowl of green bean soup for Miss to clear the heat."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded and did not say anything else.


    At this moment, within the Hibiscus Courtyard, Lan Rong had changed his clothes and was sitting in front of First Madam, brimming with energy and vitality. "Aunt dotes on your nephew, right?"

 C53

    "Just say what you want, you and I, uncle and nephew, why do you need to beat around the bush like this?" The First Madam said with a smile.


    Lan Ran''s eyes lit up, "Then Aunt, can you let me be your concubine?"


    "This ¡­" First Madam frowned, but no one saw the happiness that flashed past his eyes, "I am afraid that Master will not agree to this matter, after all, that girl has been very close to the Regent King."


    Lan Rong''s face sank. "Could it be that she really wants to fight with her cousin for the position of an imperial concubine?" If it was, she should have planned it earlier. If she has an engagement with her nephew, she really won''t have a chance. "


    First Madam''s eyes lit up, and his expression darkened again as he said, "No way, her reputation is so bad, even if she''s a concubine, she can''t be part of the Lan family."


    "Isn''t that something my aunt purposely made up? Actually, Aunt should know what kind of person she is. " Since he was born in a big family, even if he didn''t ask about the details, he knew that the dirty things in the backyard were just like those in the Orchid Sky Realm. Although he wandered around the fireworks area, he wasn''t an idiot, so how could he not see the truth of these things?


    "You ¡­" First Madam''s face was ashen, "We still have to discuss this with the old master, you should go back first and wait."


    "Alright, your nephew thanks aunt first." Lan Rong nodded and left the Hibiscus Courtyard satisfied.


    Early morning on the next day, Yun Ruoleng drew a picture of the Guan Yin sitting lotus, one stroke at a time. Since Jun Qingshang had made such a request, she wanted to see how good his eyesight was.


    It was just that this Guan Yin sitting lotus picture was extremely difficult to draw. Yun Ruoleng had drawn for the entire afternoon and wasted countless pieces of paper, but in the end, he still could not get a single piece of paper that he was satisfied with.


    Yun Ruoleng scratched his head in annoyance, and muttered: "Do you really want me to go to the temple to find inspiration?"


    "Miss, what''s wrong? What are you doing in the temple? " Peach Blossom uncertainly put down the teacup in her hands, while cleaning up Yun Ruoleng''s messy table, she said, "Actually you don''t have to go to the temple, there''s a statue of Guan Yin sitting on the lotus in the old lady''s buddhist hall."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, and rejected it, "No, the Old Madam has never liked me, and would probably be unwilling to lend it to me."


    "But Miss still has to pay her respects to the madame!" Peach Red paused for a moment, then looked at Yun Ruoleng and reminded him, "The old mistress likes peace and quiet, so it will be fine to let the ladies, young masters and young mistresses in each courtyard go greet her once a month. Since the end of the month is near, the young miss should indeed prepare to pay respects."


    There was such a troublesome matter... There were many ancient rules here.


    Yun Ruoleng sighed and said helplessly: "Alright, alright, alright. Then you should prepare yourself.


    "Then what is Miss planning to send me?" Peach Blossom explained with a smile, "Since Miss wants to go, you have to borrow the buddhist hall. Otherwise, wouldn''t all your work be in vain?"


    After Yun Ruoleng heard this, he felt that Peach Blossom''s words made sense. Although he was not very interested in the old lady, for his own purposes, he had to bear the humiliation once!


    "I remember that not long ago, I brought back a piece of warm jade. It seemed to be a Buddha on it, bring it over for me to take a look." Yun Ruoleng thoughtfully nodded his chin. He just wanted to give her something good. This old lady would probably like it.


    "Isn''t that thing a bit expensive?" Peach Blossom pursed her lips, hesitating, "Miss, even though our yard is rich, only we know. If we take out the warm jade, how will we explain it?"


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at her: "You seem to be thinking too much. In a situation like this, we don''t need to explain. "


    "Huh?" Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng in shock.


    "Go." Yun Ruoleng nodded her head firmly. She was not some fool, so she would naturally not reveal her wealth. Of course, at this time, the Regent King was also an extremely useful shield.


    Yun Ruoleng clasped his hands together and silently apologized in his heart: I''m sorry! Your Highness, we''ll have to use your name again this time.


    As for Jun Qingshang who was sitting in his study writing, he suddenly sneezed.


    "Master has caught a cold?" Seeing that, An Ying turned around and ran out, "This subordinate will invite the imperial physician over to take a look."


    "Halt!" Jun Qingshang said coldly with a composed face, "What are you making such a fuss about? "Come here, continue your horse stance."


    "But ¡­" The moment An Ying opened his mouth, he was scared stiff by Jun Qingshang''s sharp eyes, and could only continue to receive his punishment bitterly.


    Yun Ruoleng decided to pay a huge price to pay Old Madam Yun and give her a piece of jade that was worth a thousand gold.


    "This was sent by His Majesty the Regent. His granddaughter thought that grandma was wholeheartedly looking for Buddha, so she took it. Although it wasn''t worth much, it was still a gift from her granddaughter. I hope grandma doesn''t dislike it." Yun Ruoleng did as he said, he raised his hand and took the piece of jade out.


    Yesterday, Peach Blossom reluctantly pulled the box, letting Yun Ruoleng think of another method, which Yun Ruoleng rejected without thinking.


    "This quality is a good piece of jade." Old Madam Yun looked at Yun Ruoleng, as if she thought that she should have given her the good stuff, "Since it''s my intentions, then I, as her grandmother, will accept it.


    "¡­" Truly stingy, you don''t even know how to reciprocate etiquette?


    Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly: "Is Grandmother going to pay respects to Buddha? Why not take your granddaughter with you? "My granddaughter has been thinking of paying her respects to Bodhisattva for the past few days."


    "Hmm?" The old mistress'' wrinkled forehead was slightly raised, unable to believe her ears. "You''re going to pay respects to the Buddha?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes were shining, looking very hopeful, as he nodded.


    The old lady frowned slightly, looking at Yun Ruoleng dressed in light green, with no gold or silver jewelry on him, she did not say much, and only said, "Then let''s go together."


    Yun Ruoleng thought that she would make things difficult for him, since Peach Blossom said that this old lady really didn''t like him before.


    In the buddhist hall, Yun Ruoleng saw the Guan Yin sitting lotus picture as he wished it to be. When he returned to his own courtyard, he was puzzled. The old lady seemed to treat her differently from the rumors.


    However, because he had caught onto a trace of inspiration from the old lady, Yun Ruoleng quickly drew on the paper. Not long after, a living picture of the Guan Yin sitting lotus appeared on the paper, with a few simple words, he called the Peach Blossom: "Change my clothes, I want to go to Regent¡¯s Mansion."


    "Go, go to the Regent¡¯s Mansion?" Peach Blossom''s jaw dropped. Didn''t her young lady reject the Regent?


    "Yes." If we are to send the goods to someone else, I will not be at ease. "

 C54

    Yun Ruoleng seemed to know what Peach Blossom was thinking and sighed, "If you go, I''m afraid they will make things difficult for you."


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Blossom was so moved that she almost cried, "You''re so nice."


    This time, Yun Ruoleng did not change his casual attire and directly went to Yun Shicheng''s study. After explaining everything to him, he took the command tablet to the manor and swaggered out of the Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    At the door, Peach Blossom hesitantly asked, "Miss, does this servant want to go as well?"


    "Mm, yes." Yun Ruoleng laughed.


    "Can you not go?" Peach Blossom shrank and could not help but ask.


    "No." Yun Ruoleng laughed, and then left the room, bringing Peach Red to the Regent¡¯s Mansion gate.


    "Stop!" "Who is it?" The guard stopped her.


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly, "Yun Ruoleng, of the Minister¡¯s Mansion, has specially come to deliver something to Your Highness."


    "Minister¡¯s Mansion?" The guard was startled, then looked at Yun Ruoleng who was dressed in a light blue flowing immortal dress. On her waist, there was a jade ornament and a wooden tablet, and the words written on the wooden tablet were the words "Minister¡¯s Mansion".


    The guards looked at each other, as if they thought of something, and laughed out loud. "So you are that notorious Seventh Miss? Who would have thought that such a standard appearance would actually be such a trash? Let''s go! Go! Hurry up and go, don''t sully the eyes of our Prince! "


    "Exactly! You even came here to deliver a gift, I think you just want to climb into my Prince''s bed? "


    "You ¡­ How can you say that, my lady! " Peach Blossom stomped her feet in anger, but she didn''t know what to do.


    Yun Ruoleng was not angered. Instead, he laughed: "Who gave you guys the guts to make the Shangguan Family''s miss?"


    "Arrangements?" The guard tried to hold back his laughter and said, "Your reputation is known by everyone in the capital. Go to hell! Hurry up and go, don''t dirty the Regent¡¯s Mansion''s land! "


    "An Ying, is this how your master welcomes me?" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes turned and saw a familiar voice. He immediately looked at An Ying who was walking out with a smile that was not a smile.


    An Ying''s face became unspeakably ugly. He glared fiercely at the two guards and cupped his hands respectfully towards Yun Ruoleng. "Seventh Miss, don''t be angry. Your highness is waiting for you in the study, follow me! "


    Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly, but took a step back: "I don''t want to go in, my Regent¡¯s Mansion is too high, my reputation isn''t good, and I don''t dare sully this Sacred Ground."


    "¡­" An Ying now even had the urge to kill these two guards. Seeing his master''s intentions, even if he was given a hundred guts, he wouldn''t dare bully this Seventh Miss.


    And these two blind guards ¡­ An Ying threw a cold blade eye: "Still not apologizing!"


    "I am guilty, please forgive me, Seventh Miss."


    "This little one knows my wrongs, I won''t dare to do it again."


    "Where did your crime come from!" Yun Ruoleng sneered, but did not plan to go in, and said: "It''s better not to be unreasonable, this young miss is too lazy to bother with him, take it."


    With that, Yun Ruoleng threw the painting back to An Ying and left without looking back.


    "¡­" An Ying held the painting like he was holding a scalding sweet potato, laughed bitterly and shook his head, then walked into the Duke Palace.


    The two guards were exchanged after An Ying left for less than the time it took to make a cup of tea.


    "Your Highness, the Seventh Miss has sent the painting." An Ying looked at his own master with a bitter face.


    "Where is she?" Jun Qingshang took the painting, opened it and looked, the beautiful beautiful eyes lit up instantly.


    "Seventh, Seventh Miss was angered away by the two guards at the entrance ¡­" An Ying stuttered, moving a little to prevent his master''s cold air from freezing him.


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang''s face darkened, "What happened?"


    "That ¡­" An Ying stammered, "It was those two who mocked Seventh Miss after hearing her name. They even ¡­


    An Ying''s voice became softer and softer, to the point that everyone nearly couldn''t hear him clearly in the end. Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes slightly rose, and said without any emotion: "Go and call the butler over to this king!"


    An Ying knew that his master was angry about this, and very angry about it.


    An Ying did not dare stay inside, his body flashed, and he quickly left the room.


    Not long after, a thirty to forty year old man in green clothes walked in. "Master, what do you need this servant for?"


    "I heard that the people you arranged for the Yun Family''s Seventh Miss to leave in anger?" Jun Qingshang leaned on the soft couch, his red robe spread wide, making him look more demonic.


    "Huh?" The butler frowned, he then remembered that An Ying had taken care of two people earlier, and immediately said: "This servant does not dare."


    "Don''t dare, or don''t you know?" Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes squinted dangerously.


    The butler kneeled in front of Jun Qingshang with a ''putong''.


    "As long as you don''t know, this king won''t punish you. Gather everyone in the manor and spread this king''s orders ¡­" Jun Qingshang paused for a while. "In the future, when all the Seventh Miss come, there''s no need to stop them."


    "Yes sir!" The butler secretly decided that he must treat the Seventh Miss better in the future so that his master would not invite him to drink tea.


    Knowing that Jun Qingshang did not implicate anyone because of this matter, An Ying heaved a sigh of relief in his heart and returned to the study room, "Your Highness, will you be going to the Hundred Blossom Banquet in ten days? If you are going, then I will have someone prepare it. "


    "Get ready." As for whether he wanted to go or not, that would depend on his mood.


    Jun Qingshang waved his hand and gave the book in his hand over, "Send this book to Minister¡¯s Mansion, consider it as a thank you gift to her."


    Are you sure it is a gift of gratitude and not a apology? An Ying took the book, and after looking at it with a complicated expression, he turned and left.


    After Yun Ruoleng hurriedly left the Regent¡¯s Mansion, he did not immediately return to the Minister¡¯s Mansion. Instead, he took Peach Blossom shopping "aimlessly" on the street.


    "Miss, where are we going?" Peach Red was afraid that Yun Ruoleng would take the words of those people seriously, so she immediately advised, "The rumors will spread eventually, don''t take it to heart Miss."


    Yun Ruoleng paused his steps, laughed and shook his head: "Your young miss isn''t the kind of person to hang herself just because of rumors!"


    "But ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng reached out to interrupt Peach Blossom from speaking, "I just don''t want to see the Regent''s face, that''s all."


    "Huh?" Peach Blossom sometimes couldn''t understand Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts. Obviously, all the women in the world wanted to become the mistress of the Regent''s concubine, but her young mistress couldn''t even hide from Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng turned around, and leisurely added: "This lady does not want to be like those vulgar women! Furthermore, there are so many men in this world, why must I stay here on this block of ice? "


    "¡­" When she thought of how the Regent didn''t say a word, and how his face was as cold as ice, Peach Blossom still agreed. But is it really okay to say so, my Lord Regent?

 C55

    Fortunately, this was all her young mistress could say to herself. Peach Blossom said helplessly, "Then young miss, where are we going now?"


    "Let''s go look for an empty store." Yun Ruoleng was not really walking aimlessly, it was just that he was a little slow because he was preoccupied with something.


    Peach Red followed behind Yun Ruoleng. Looking left and right, she felt that everything was new, after all, she had not come out for a long time to go shopping, to the point where she did not even know when she came out last.


    "Let''s go in and take a look." Yun Ruoleng''s footsteps suddenly stopped in front of an inconspicuous clothing store, and his mouth raised slightly.


    Peach Blossom did not say anything as she followed behind Yun Ruoleng. As a competent servant, she did not dare say a word when her young miss asked her where she wanted to go.


    ~ Who knows if Yun Ruoleng was lucky, but when he walked into the shop, he heard some words from the shop owner about the plan to exit this shop. Yun Ruoleng slightly raised his eyebrows at Peach Blossom who was behind him. She blinked her eyes and immediately raised her big fingers, laughing in a very innocent manner.


    "What would you like, sir?" When the shopkeeper saw Yun Ruoleng walk in, he quickly ended the conversation and walked over with a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes swept across the clothes in the clothing store and frowned slightly, "Although the fabric is not bad, the patterns and patterns made are monotonous and lifeless."


    "You ¡­"


    "I have a way to make this shop popular, but I want to get a fifty percent bonus." Yun Ruoleng retracted his gaze and went straight to the point. He raised his eyebrows at the shop owner who was determined to get it.


    At first, the shop owner''s face looked pale, but the last sentence caused his eyes to light up. "Is that true?"


    "Seriously." Yun Ruoleng walked to the front of the counter and picked up a pen to draw a simple rose flower on a piece of paper.


    "This, this ¡­" The painter holding the painting looked at the drawing in admiration and said, "This Rose ¡­ ¡­." I''m afraid I can''t find anything more beautiful. "


    "Not only does the clothing look good on the embroidery products, it also looks good on the color of the flowers and their matching. Although I don''t know how to embroider, my painting is still okay." Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, then casually took out a piece of clothing, shook his head and said, "In addition, these clothes''s style is too old-fashioned, every shop looks like this, if it were anyone else, they would choose to buy nice looking clothes with good needlework."


    "The lady has a point." The shop owner was silent for a long time before he spoke again. His attitude was clearly much better than before. "Then what does Miss have in mind?"


    Hmm, very good. It seems that this deal is a success.


    Sure enough, learning how to paint and getting low profits.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and replied modestly: "Not really. It''s just a small thought. "


    After saying that, Yun Ruo Leng wrote a simple and clear contract on a piece of paper and handed it over. "There are two sets of contracts. After you sign them, I''ll bring them home for my elder brother to sign." Tomorrow, I will get a servant girl to bring a piece of clothing design over. How about it?


    The shop owner looked at each other, he did not seem to feel that it was a loss, so he nodded.


    After Yun Ruoleng put away the items, he drew a few small pictures and gave them to the shop owner. "Tell the embroidery lady to make these things into a handkerchief.


    "Show me your clothes?" The shop owner did not understand and frowned.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly remembered that this ancient era did not have any show events. He sighed and explained: "It''s just setting up a stage outside the shop and displaying the clothes that we designed. "Of course, I''m not in a hurry. Also, the name of your shop ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng raised his brush and wrote two words on the paper: "Embroidery Workshop".


    The two shop owners looked at each other, they did not read much, and only took out this name casually. They were naturally overjoyed when Yun Ruoleng gave a high-end and grand name to them, the way they looked at Yun Ruoleng changed from shock to pleasant surprise, and from doubt to adoration.


    "How is it?"


    "As you wish, Miss." The two of them said at the same time, "We two brothers will be extremely grateful to be able to keep our store."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head in satisfaction: "Alright, here are three thousand silver notes, make a signboard and add some cloth back. If it''s not enough, tell me. There''s only clothes in the shop. "


    "Yes sir!" The two of them felt that Yun Ruoleng''s words made a lot of sense, and nodded at the same time.


    "It''s about time. We still have things to do, so we''ll head back first." After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he turned around and left without forgetting to instruct, "It''s best if the handkerchief is ready in the next two days. It''s said that the Hundred Blossom Banquet is near, you should know how to prepare it!"


    "I know!" The two brothers nodded their heads at the same time, and watched Yun Ruoleng leave. Only then did the two of them remember, and they did not even know Yun Ruoleng''s name.


    After leaving the clothing store, Yun Ruoleng and Peach Blossom directly returned to the Minister¡¯s Mansion. It was unknown if it was because Yun Ruoleng was too lucky, but the moment he entered the Minister¡¯s Mansion gate, he met the Lan Rong Region who was coming out from inside.


    Yun Ruoleng''s delicate face was immediately covered in frost, and she was prepared to ignore the other party who would pass by her and return to her own courtyard.


    But who would have thought that when he just passed by her, he would actually reach out and grab her wrist, using all his strength to pull Yun Ruoleng right into his embrace. The salty pig directly grabbed onto Yun Ruoleng''s slender waist: "Where are you going, Beauty?"


    "Does where I go have anything to do with you?" The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth rose, and said with a smile that was not a smile, "Even father does not dare to care, who do you think you are?"


    "Yo!" Lan Rong said with a smile instead of getting angry, "Beautiful women really have a bad temper! But the more it''s like this, the more I like it. "


    Yun Ruoleng was too lazy to talk to him. Taking advantage of the fact that he wasn''t paying attention, she stepped on his feet, pushed her hand against his abdomen, and when there was a certain distance between the two of them, Yun Ruoleng bent his body and immediately came out of the Lan Rong Realm.


    Then, before he could react, a shoulder throw knocked him to the ground.


    In one breath, Yun Ruoleng clapped his hands and panted as he muttered, "Compared to the Jun Qingshang who is lingering around like a ghost, you are simply shameless." Then, with a cold face, he angrily scolded, "LanRong, I''m warning you, if you dare to lay your hands on me again, be careful that I won''t let you out of bed for the rest of your life."


    Lan Rong was stunned. He was the second young master of the Lan family. He had been doted on by an adult ever since he was young. But today, he was thrown to the ground by a girl and was still threatening him!


    Yun Ruoleng returned to the Ao Xue Yuan in a huff, and muttered: "I''m really unlucky today. When I went out of my house, I met two useless fellows relying on their power, and when I came back, I even met that playful big radish."


    "There are some gains and some losses." Tao Hong laughed and poured a cup of water for Yun Ruoleng, "Miss had reaped a bountiful harvest today, please do not be angry. Furthermore, after what happened today, Second Master Lan probably won''t bother you anymore. "

 C56

    "Idiot!"


    Yun Ruoleng unhappily poked Peach Blossom''s forehead, "That man is someone who won''t give up until he sees the Yellow River. Since he dares to touch me in front of all these people, it means that he doesn''t even put Minister¡¯s Mansion in his eyes.


    Peach Blossom fell silent. Actually, she understood that all she wanted to do was to comfort her young miss.


    After Yun Ruoleng gulped down a mouthful of water, his mood became much calmer: "There''s only the two of us in our courtyard, we were indeed lacking in manpower."


    Tao Hong did not know why her young miss suddenly said that, and asked nervously: "Is her young miss prepared to accept the First Madam''s people?"


    "How is this possible?" Yun Ruoleng waved his hand disdainfully, saying, "Your young miss is not that stupid."


    "Then what should we do? Miss, Master will not allow you to bring people in here as you please. " Peach Blossom said in embarrassment. Even though her young mistress seemed to be able to speak in front of Master recently, it would still be difficult for her to recruit people at will.


    Yun Ruoleng also knew that Yun Shicheng would definitely not agree to it, but there was someone he could agree to. She rubbed her chin and said with a sly smile, "Maybe we can."


    "Huh?" Peach Blossom looked at Yun Ruoleng in disbelief, "This servant can''t understand where you get your confidence from."


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, he did not expect that Peach Blossom had already learned how to tease her after these few days. Thus, he laughed and directly pounced on her, and said, "Very good, very capable."


    "Miss, this servant was wrong!" Peach Blossom subconsciously jumped away to avoid being caught by her young miss''s claws.


    "Ah ¡­" However, right when she reached the door, she bumped into an iron wall. Because of inertia, Peach Blossom directly fell onto the ground and cried out.


    Yun Ruoleng stopped and turned his head to look at Peach Blossom''s condition. After realizing that there were no problems, he looked outside, and could not help but frown and ask: "What are you doing here?"


    "Subordinate came here to apologize to Miss on the orders of the Prince."


    An Ying reached out to help her up, and comforted her in a soft voice, "It was your subordinate''s fault, you shouldn''t have come in so recklessly. If there''s anything wrong with the girl, I''ll pay for it. "


    "I-I''m fine." Peach Blossom quickly got up from the ground and retreated with a blush.


    Yun Ruoleng shot a glance at An Ying: "What can I get his personal guards to personally deliver to us?"


    "Your highness has taken the Seventh Miss to heart, you should be happy about it." An Ying handed the book over to Yun Ruoleng as he spoke.


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at it lightly, and waved his hand expressionlessly: "Just leave it there, thank the Duke in my stead!"


    "Yes." An Ying agreed and then left.


    His arrival didn''t cause much of a stir. Peach Blossom went outside to bring a cup of tea. Her face was still red as she scanned the room. When she realized that the person was no longer in the room, she could not help but sigh regretfully.


    Yun Ruoleng, however, did not notice this. He only lowered his head and drew.


    Time slowly passed. Yun Ruoleng rubbed his wrist, stood up and looked at the drawing on the table, nodded in satisfaction, then continued to draw. Suddenly, a gentle voice came from behind.


    "What is Seventh Sister busy with?"


    Just as she finished speaking, a girl dressed in green walked over, looked at the hardworking Yun Ruoleng and slightly frowned her brows, and asked: "Little Sister, are you drawing?"


    "Sister, please sit." Yun Ruoleng did not raise his head, and only laughed, "I have some thoughts right now, you can take care of yourself."


    Yun Qingyao''s expression changed slightly as he looked at the faintly sweating Yun Ruoleng on his forehead. He seemed to have thought of something, and said: "Did First Madam make things difficult for you again?"


    "Nope." The brush in Yun Ruoleng''s hand stopped for a moment, "Elder sister, you came at the right time. I was just about to design a set of clothes today, do you like it this way?


    Yun Ruoleng pulled out a drawing and handed it over to Yun Qingyao. He held his chin and blinked his eyes: "How is it?"


    Seventh Sister was drawing clothes again? Yun Qingyao was startled, then took the painting and looked at it, who knew that he would be captivated by it. The color is light and graceful, the style is delicate, the sleeve of the Peach flower embellishes exquisite.


    Yun Qingyao nodded his head in approval: "Leng Er''s clothes are very good, if I could make it, I would be afraid that the young miss of the Shangguan family would have to buy one."


    "It''s good that big sister likes it." Yun Ruoleng''s lips slightly rose. He smiled and said, "Sister will definitely go to the Hundred Blossom Banquet in a few days, so sister thinks that she will wear these clothes. Even if I do some advertising for you, how about it?"


    "Promotions?" Yun Qingyao looked at Yun Ruoleng suspiciously, "What kind of promotion?"


    "It''s like this ¡­" Yun Ruoleng recounted the events of today to Yun Qingyao, and then asked in distress, "What does elder sister think?"


    Hearing that, Yun Qingyao was startled, but after pondering for a moment, he said: "I do not know, but it is still possible to give it a try."


    "Elder sister, you''ve agreed?" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up.


    "Leng Er always has his own way of doing things. As his sister, how could I object?" Yun Qingyao doted on him and laughed, "If you lack money, then just say so, I have some over there."


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng nodded, but in his heart, he knew that Yun Qingyao was not rich either. Presumably, the First Madam would not treat Yun Qingyao sincerely.


    After Yun Qingyao left, Yun Ruoleng placed the paintings he made together and used the words "Leng Yun" to sign the contract.


    The next day, after Yun Ruoleng ordered Peach Blossom to bring the items to the shop, he was in a good mood as he hummed a song in the courtyard while bathing in the sun. He took a sip of the fragrant tea in his hands and thought about the results of today.


    Yun Yueyu and her daughter had been very obedient recently, not doing anything. Yun Ruoleng was at ease and at ease.


    Suddenly, the sound of light footsteps came from behind him. Yun Ruoleng frowned but didn''t move, as if he didn''t know anything.


    "Where''s the beauty tasting the tea?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyelids twitched, he extended his hand to block the sunlight, and said disdainfully: "Second Master Lan, to be able to act like a pervert in the eyes of the people, I have truly wronged you."


    Lan Rong''s expression froze for a second, and then she smiled pervertedly. "You''re right, I''m just pretending. Why don''t you match me?"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng thoughtfully nodded his head, curled his lips, and smiled, "So Second Master Lan is really lustful. "Then I don''t mind taking care of people like you!"


    Lan Rong felt as if his body was made of air, and he was sent flying by that weird fighting method.

 C57

    Boom! * The sound of a heavy object landing on the ground resounded through the courtyard.


    "Hiss ¡­" Lan Rong lied on the ground. His whole body was in great pain. His face turned pale as he asked, "Where did a girl like you get so much strength from?"


    "Wasn''t it your good aunt who forced it?" Yun Ruoleng sneered.


    Indeed, the original Yun Ruoleng did not have that much strength, but she was a person from the twenty-first century, so she had more or less learned some of the Taekwondo and judo. Now that she had also trained for a bit, her Taekwondo was even easier to use.


    "¡­" Lan Rong didn''t know what to say.


    "Second Young Master Lan, this is the Ao Xue Yuan. It''s best to not talk too much in the future, lest rumors spread out and affect your reputations." Yun Ruoleng warned, "If it was spread to the Regent King, I think no one would be able to get back at him."


    "Are you threatening this Young Master?" Lan Rong sat on the floor with a cold glint in his eyes, "This young master won''t eat this!"


    "You know, we represent two manors. Rumors are not only against you, but also implicated the Lan Manor. I don''t think Second Master Lan would place the entire Lan Manor on this little girl!" Yun Ruoleng returned to his seat indifferently, and took a sip from his teacup.


    Lan Rong''s expression became worse, because what Yun Ruoleng said was the truth and he really didn''t dare to do it.


    "Young mistress, this servant will buy it ¡­" Peach Blossom entered the room excitedly carrying a basket. She looked at the situation and paused for a moment before asking angrily, "Second Young Master Lan, what are you planning to do now?"


    Lan Rong''s dark face turned even darker. "What do you mean? This young master is sitting on the floor, and your young miss is sitting on a chair.


    "You ¡­"


    "This is the Ao Xue Yuan, not the First Madam''s Madam''s Courtyard." Yun Ruoleng said in an unhurried manner. It''s not like anyone would think about what you want to do, not what I want to do. "


    "You!" Lan Rong got up from the ground, and was so angry that he couldn''t say a word. In the end, he fiercely stared at Yun Ruoleng''s beautiful face that was as calm as the clouds.


    Yun Ruoleng waved his hands nonchalantly: "Take care, I won''t send you off."


    Lan Rong took a deep breath, resisted the urge to pinch Yun Ruoleng to death, snorted coldly, and left.


    After leaving, Peach Blossom nervously pulled Yun Ruoleng to size him up. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was really fine, she heaved a sigh of relief.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, seeing the little girl''s anxious look, the corner of his mouth raised a little: "Peach Blossom, your young miss is no longer the cowardly Yun Ruoleng of the past."


    "Yes, I know." The stone in Peach Blossom''s heart had finally been relieved. She turned around and opened the basket. "This servant went to buy some fresh ingredients. This servant will cook some good food for Miss tonight."


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng replied with a big smile.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly felt that his days with the little girl was really comfortable.


    In a place that Yun Ruoleng didn''t know, a pair of black eyes turned in a circle, and then disappeared from the Ao Xue Yuan.


    "Mistress, that young master of the Lan family seems to have some ideas about Seventh Miss Yun."


    Jun Qingshang, who was sitting in the main seat, frowned slightly. "Why?"


    "There are three misses in the Minister¡¯s Mansion. Although the Seventh Miss is outstanding, the Lan Rong Realm isn''t the kind of person who treats others with lust." An Yue paused for a moment, and then continued to analyze, "Furthermore, the Lan Rong Realm has tolerated the Seventh Miss multiple times, as if they knew something that we don''t."


    Jun Qingshang leaned on the teacher''s chair, the beautiful eyes slightly squinted, as if it was interested, and coldly said: "Continue."


    "This subordinate feels that the two of them have known each other since a long time ago, it''s just that Seventh Miss has forgotten about them." An Yue carefully looked at his master''s expression and saw that he looked to be deep in thought. He continued to speak: "The Lan Rong Realm has provoked the Seventh Miss many times and yet he was still beaten back by the Seventh Miss. But he wasn''t angry, as if he was sure of something."


    "Orchid realm?" Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes shot out a ray of cold light, "Send people to investigate the situation between him and Yun Ruoleng, it''s no big deal, report it all to me."


    "Yes sir!" An Yue responded and continued to speak, "Other than that, it seems like Seventh Miss were preparing to open up the shop, this subordinate only found out about it yesterday afternoon. They left the palace and went shopping, after going to a clothing shop, they came out not long after, and then went back to busy night, this subordinate went to look at the things last night, how do they design the shop and clothes, and the patterns and the like."


    Jun Qingshang suddenly laughed and said: "As expected, interesting."


    "¡­" An Yue was stunned seeing Jun Qingshang''s smile, his family''s cold face actually laughed?


    "Keep watching. Report if you have anything." Jun Qingshang retracted his smile and waved goodbye to An Yue.


    An Yue replied and quickly left the room.


    After An Yue left, Jun Qingshang opened up a painting on the table and a perfect picture of Guan Yin sitting lotus appeared before his eyes. The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth slowly rose as he looked at the diagram.


    Time flew. In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. Yun Ruoleng had finally waited for the day that he planned for a long time to come.


    "Miss, should we send this to the Third Miss?" Peach was holding a royal blue dress, folded on a red lacquer tray, her face unable to hide her smile.


    Yun Ruoleng was drinking her tea, but after hearing Peach Blossom''s words, she turned and looked at the sunlight outside, nodded her head: "The sun is still not very hot, let''s go now."


    After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he got up and left. Peach Blossom quickly followed along with the tray, and said as she walked, "This is the first time Miss has been awake for so long! I''m sure Third Miss won''t let you leave just like that. "


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng did not think so. Although Yun Qingyao treated her very well, she always gave people a feeling of being close and far away.


    Peach Blossom blinked as she explained, "In the past, Miss would stay until night before returning to her own courtyard."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head and did not reply. She believed that in the past, only Yun Qingyao truly cared for Yun Ruoleng, and that was why he stayed at her place!


    The master and the servant walked into Yun Qingyao''s Jade Bamboo Garden, one following the other. Just as they walked in, they heard loud noises and screams. Yun Ruoleng''s expression tightened, if she did not hear wrongly, it should be Yun Qingyao''s voice.


    "Miss!" Seeing Yun Ruoleng trotting away, Peach Blossom became anxious. She did not have the time to notify him anymore, and quickly chased after him.


    "Let my Young Miss go! Wuwuwu, young miss, First Madam, this matter was not done by my young miss. Madam, I beg you, please let my young miss go! "

 C58

    "Released?"


    "Mhmm ¡­"


    "I''ve raised this little bitch for so long, but she still can''t get close to me. She actually stole my money to that bitch Yun Ruoleng, why should I let her off?"


    "Madam is merciful. Furthermore, Miss has never done such a thing, Cui Ying can swear that if this servant is lying, this servant will enter the eighteen levels of hell and live forever ¡­"


    "Enough!" The door was kicked open by Yun Ruoleng, and what was initially noisy inside the house was forcibly interrupted by a cold voice.


    First Madam was also shocked, but when he saw who it was, his face immediately darkened: "Good timing! Let me ask you, how much silver did your sister give you? "


    "The First Madam is really interesting." Yun Ruoleng shot a glance at the silver needle in his hand, ready to stab Yun Qingyao''s nanny, and said coldly: "You actually dare to use needles on big sister, looks like First Madam has thought of a way out."


    First Madam''s gaze tightened, "Yun Ruoleng, is this how you speak to your mother?"


    "First Madam!" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes slowly swept across the nanny who was grabbing onto Yun Qingyao''s hand, and said with a cold smile. "To ask a doctor to perform the needle technique on the third sister, shouldn''t you explain it? Or do you want to draw Father here? Of course I''m not afraid of my father. "


    First Madam was shocked by the cold Qi around Yun Ruoleng''s body, his heart was already a mess.


    "Madam ¡­" The nanny behind First Madam supported her as he whispered a few words into her ear.


    Only now did First Madam calm down, and he snorted coldly: "Stop with the nonsense, is it not the truth that she stole the silver from you?"


    "Is this a suitor suing first, or is this a random excuse? I think that First Madam should be clearer of this than Leng Er!" Yun Ruoleng walked over to Yun Qingyao who was pressed down on the ground, her cold eyes swept across nanny, "I already told Peach Blossom to invite father, we can talk about it after father comes over!"


    Finished, Yun Ruoleng did not bother to look at First Madam''s expression, he raised his hand to help Yun Qingyao up. His other hand supported the kneeling servant, Cui Ying, and said apologetically: "I''m sorry, I''ve implicated the both of you."


    Both of Yun Qingyao''s eyes were filled with tears as he forcefully pulled the corner of his pale lips: "I don''t blame you."


    Feeling warm in his heart, Yun Ruoleng helped Yun Qingyao to sit on a chair, glanced at First Madam, and said: "First Madam, please sit! No one is leaving. Father will be here soon. "


    First Madam''s face was ashen, but he didn''t dare leave. If he really left, wouldn''t he be feeling guilty?


    But if they didn''t leave, when the matter was investigated, they would most likely lose face as well.


    Yun Shicheng had indeed arrived very quickly. Looking at the house full of maids, servants, First Madam and Yun Ruoleng, his expression was not very good, "What are you all doing now?"


    "Father, you can''t wrongly accuse me." Yun Ruoleng sneered, "When I first came in, I saw mother had people torture her sister. "Dare I ask, Father, what crime can you use a needle for?"


    "What''s going on? Why did you lynch Yao''er? " Yun Shicheng''s gaze suddenly turned towards the First Madam. This Yun Qingyao also had Wu Qi, so maybe he would be able to get the attention of the Regent in the future. How could he use lynchings?


    "The old master is innocent!" First Madam thought over and over again, and felt that he couldn''t avoid it anymore, so he decided to just sob and bring this matter to Yun Ruoleng, "Yao''er was bewitched by Leng Er to actually steal a thousand taels of silver and a white jade bracelet that''s worth thirty thousand taels of silver. The evidence is conclusive. "


    "A thousand taels of silver is what I gave my sister a few days ago. The seal on it is the seal of abundance." Yun Ruoleng did not wait for First Madam to finish speaking before opening his mouth to interrupt her, and said with a cold smile, "The silver was given to me by the Duke. I still have a thousand silver there. "As for the bracelet ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng''s cold gaze swept across the First Madam''s surprised face, and instead formed a smile, "This recent period of time is truly strange. Two days ago First Madam said that Leng Er had hidden a man''s personal belongings in his room, and today he even found something in elder sister''s room. Why does it have to do with Leng Er every single time?"


    "You ¡­"


    "Why did the Prince give you silver taels?" However, Yun Shicheng didn''t care about anything else, and directly grabbed onto the main point.


    "Your Highness has asked me to keep this a secret. Please forgive Leng Er for not being able to tell you." Yun Ruoleng said indifferently, and immediately pushed the matter towards Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Shicheng immediately nodded when he heard it, and said, "Yes, this matter should be handled by the Regent. But after this matter, Yun Shicheng looked at Yun Ruoleng with even more concern.


    Yun Ruoleng swept a glance at Yun Qingyao who was standing to the side and snorted coldly, "However, the Overlord''s decree is that the person with the purest Shaman Energy will become his consort with the Duke. It is very possible that the First Madam has hurt big sister''s meridians by having someone use needles, so father should let big sister have a look first!


    Threats! Yun Ruoleng''s blatant threat left First Madam trembling in anger, but she was unable to refute it.


    Because Yun Shicheng didn''t dare to say a single word, he could only suppress this matter and have his men check on a matter regarding the bracelet. First Madam didn''t even dare to breathe loudly, he only accompanied Yun Shicheng and the others to the end.


    Because this was a family matter, the results would be out very quickly. The butler whispered a few words to Yun Shicheng and looked at First Madam with a complicated gaze. Finally, he called the servants out.


    The black color on Yun Shicheng''s face dripped down as he looked at First Madam and asked, "Do you know how the Jade Bracelet managed to get to Yao''er''s room?"


    "I ¡­"


    "Leng Er wants to know!" Yun Ruoleng did not mind this big trouble breaking the silence of the First Madam, and quickly said: "Father, about Big Sister''s innocence, Leng Er is very concerned."


    Yun Ruoleng could already see through Yun Shicheng''s thoughts, he was probably trying to shield First Madam. However, once they were protected today, it was likely that First Madam would act even more arrogantly in the future. She was fine, she could use the Regent as a shield, but her sister Yun Qingyao''s days would be even worse.


    As a result, Yun Ruoleng unwaveringly insisted on knowing the truth, and threw out a sentence in the end: "If Father finds it difficult to make a decision, Leng Er does not mind asking His Highness to come over and judge."


    "You!" Yun Shicheng''s nose was almost crooked from anger, but he still felt that the Regent was more important.


    Looking at First Madam, Yun Shicheng said: "Madam has been befuddled for a while, since that is the case, let the authority of the butler be given to Mrs. Luo. As for the madame, she would rest in her yard for two days. After all, the Hundred Flower Banquet will be held in a few days. At that time, you still have to bring the two sisters to attend, so don''t get tired. "


    Although Yun Shicheng''s words were reasonable, but smart people knew that First Madam''s butler was taken away, and these few days were just empty words.


    This matter had finally come to an end. After sending Yun Shicheng and the First Madam away, Yun Qingyao could no longer endure the burning pain on his back and directly fainted.


    The room was in chaos again.

 C59

    "Elder sister is awake?" Yun Ruoleng sat in front of his bed and waited who knows how long, when he finally saw Yun Qingyao open his eyes, and immediately called out, "Cui Ying, Peach Blossom, quickly bring the medicine and dinner food in!"


    Just as Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, the door was pushed open, a red and green servant came in with a tray, seeing that Yun Qingyao had woken up, the two looked at each other and laughed.


    "Sister, please get up and eat something first." Yun Ruoleng reached out to help Yun Qingyao up.


    Looking at Yun Ruoleng, Yun Qingyao sighed lightly, "Today, you and I have offended the First Madam, so I''m afraid that our following days will not be easy."


    "Since she no longer has the authority to be the boss, then don''t even think about taking it back!" Yun Ruoleng did not mind in the least and chuckled, "First Madam is actually not very smart. On the contrary, she only knows how to act. The aunts in the backyard have long since disliked her. Now that she has lost her authority, she probably won''t be able to turn the situation around even if we don''t do anything. "


    Yun Qingyao nodded his head, if a woman lost control of the backyard, that would truly be a tragedy, especially the matriarchs of the large families.


    After Yun Qingyao drank the medicine, Yun Ruoleng immediately sent the servant down, and after the door was closed, he smiled and said: "Big sister, do you want to look at the clothes? I originally wanted to give you a try, but I didn''t think that so many things would happen."


    "Yes." Yun Qingyao''s face was still pale, but there was a tinge of happiness in his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng gave the food to Yun Qingyao and stood up, then walked to the wardrobe and opened it up for a few seconds. He took out the clothes and returned to Yun Qingyao''s side.


    Yun Qingyao looked at her clothes and her small mouth slightly opened. She was very surprised in her heart.


    He saw the white rose on top of the royal blue dress spread out to his chest like a living creature, and in addition, this piece of clothing''s style was different from all the clothes she had seen before. One of the white waists was still covered by a pink rose, but in the middle of the two pink roses, a butterfly carved from jade was stuck to it.


    Beneath it was a silver pendant, and the whole garment looked sacred and earthy.


    Yun Qingyao couldn''t help but reach out to touch the fabric of his clothes as he said to himself in shock, "This is the most popular red in the capital?"


    "Yeah." Yun Ruoleng folded the clothes beside Yun Qingyao, "I believe that you will definitely find the person you love, considering the clothes I wore at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and my sister''s original temperament."


    "One red, one red, one red." One red, one red. Yun Qingyao muttered, "Maybe."


    At this moment, within the Hibiscus Courtyard, First Madam was sitting gloomily in front of a bed. Yun Yueyu sat beside her and comforted her in a small voice, "Mother, we didn''t calculate it well this time. Next time, we definitely cannot let them have it so easily."


    "What do you know!" The First Madam withdrew his hand from Yun Yueyu''s grasp and sneered, "That bitch Yun Ruoleng is really amazing. If she didn''t come sooner or later, she wouldn''t have come later. If he were to say that it was a coincidence, how could it be such a coincidence? "She even sent a servant to fetch your father when she came. She should have come a long time ago and was only waiting for me to make a move."


    "Then wouldn''t mother be able to create a gap between Yun Qingyao and herself?" Yun Yueyu''s eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "This way, we can watch the fight from the sidelines."


    First Madam glared at her daughter snappily. "No wonder you''re still no match for Yun Ruoleng."


    "Mother ¡­"


    "Even if we were to say these words to Yun Qingyao, she would not believe it. In her heart, her sister is the person who saved her, and we are the ones who harmed her. In other words, we are enemies with her and Yun Ruoleng has always been her partner. Do you believe the words of the enemy? "


    "No, I won''t." Yun Yueyu retracted her neck. Had she forgotten about that already?


    "Now, I''m not in a hurry to take care of these two bitches." First Madam''s eyes flashed with a cold light, "The Luo woman stole my housekeeper power, shouldn''t I make her pay a price?"


    Yun Yueyu frowned: "Mother, Mrs. Luo is really hateful, even though you and Yun Ruoleng were fighting to the death, she still took the butler''s authority."


    "Yu''er, the Hundred Blossom Banquet is near. Don''t waste your time on this fight in the backyard." First Madam suddenly held Yun Yueyu''s hand and patted it, "Mother will take care of the matters at the backyard, you have to prepare for the Hundred Blossom Banquet, I heard that the Regent will be there as well."


    "Really?" Yun Yueyu, who was originally frowning in distress, suddenly perked up, "Then your daughter will definitely be prepared."


    After returning to the Ao Xue Yuan, Yun Ruoleng''s face slowly became cold.


    Everything that had happened today was like a thorn in Yun Ruoleng''s heart. She swore to herself that she would not be a person until she got rid of First Madam.


    "Miss is tired for the whole day, why don''t you take a bath first?" Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng worriedly.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head, he only leaned against the window and looked at the night sky, and sighed in his heart. The Hundred Blossom Banquet this time round might not be a simple one, he only hoped that Yun Qingyao could return safely.


    Tao Hong silently waited at the side for a long time, but saw that her young miss still refused to rest. She then took out a plain cloak and put it on Yun Ruoleng as she reminded him softly: "Young miss, it''s late in the night, it''s time to rest."


    Only now did Yun Ruoleng regain his senses, and asked instead: "Mrs. Luo, what kind of person is he?"


    Peach Red thought for a moment and said: "Mrs. Luo is also a woman from a large family, but she was born from a concubine. In the old master''s backyard, she was not favored like his wife, nor did she fight for a favor like the other wives.


    "No fight, no snatch ¡­" Yun Ruoleng pondered.


    Are we really not going to fight for it, or are we going to fight for it?


    "What''s wrong? Does Miss think that something is amiss? " Peach Blossom hurriedly asked, blinking her eyes in an attempt to find out what it was. She felt that her young miss was getting smarter and smarter. She really liked it!


    Yun Ruoleng smiled lightly, and said: "It''s nothing, it''s just that in the future, we should be able to witness a good show."


    As for what kind of show it would be, she was really looking forward to it.


    In the blink of an eye, another night had passed. Yun Ruoleng picked up the book that Jun Qingshang sent over a while ago, and although she had taken a look at it, she had not forgotten about the existence of this book.


    Yun Ruoleng woke up early in the morning to start researching on books. Here, it recorded all the cultivation and usage of magic power, no wonder Jun Qingshang would use it as a form of apology.


    However, because the content was really too obscure, Yun Ruoleng took about half an hour to read a page, when suddenly, the door to his room was ruthlessly flung open.

 C60

    "Miss, I can''t stop them!" Peach stood anxiously in the doorway.


    Yun Ruoleng swept a glance at them and frowned slightly: "What do you mean by that?"


    "This servant has disturbed Seventh Miss from reading." The leader of the nanny looked at Yun Ruoleng blissfully, "I came here under the orders of the Mrs. Luo to deliver something to the Seventh Miss, but Miss Peach Red didn''t allow us to enter, so I brazenly barged in."


    nanny was very polite when she spoke, and she was not as despicable as the group of nanny beside her.


    Although Yun Ruoleng did not have a good impression of this nanny, her words were sincere and sincere. She dared to take responsibility, making Yun Ruoleng feel bad.


    "nanny is too polite." Although Yun Ruoleng said that, he was actually disdainful in his heart. Now that he looked at it, this Mrs. Luo might not be such a smart person, it was just that he did not have the authority to do so in the past.


    As soon as he obtained this right, his IQ fell. Tsk tsk, that won''t do.


    "This servant should do it." When the nanny heard this, he smiled and ordered the people behind him, "Bring the things of the Seventh Miss here."


    Upon saying that, a few servants walked in carrying a few large boxes.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the boxes in front of him and frowned: "What does Mrs. Luo mean by this?"


    "Please do not worry too much, Mrs. Luo only felt that the Seventh Miss''s courtyard was too far away from the Seventh Miss.


    Yun Ruoleng was not an idiot, he naturally understood the intentions of the nanny for her to join hands with him, and nodded: "I will take the things, nanny will help me thank the Mrs. Luo when I return."


    "Yes sir!" nanny did not stay for long.


    "Miss, what do they mean by this?" Peach Blossom frowned as she looked at the big boxes. She had a nagging feeling that Mrs. Luo would not be so kind as to send these good stuff to the Ao Xue Yuan.


    Yun Ruoleng did not explain too much and continued with his own things. Seeing that, Peach Blossom could only help Yun Ruoleng tidy up the items one by one.


    Not long after, Yun Ruoleng also became restless reading because what was written on it was really too hard to understand. Basically, she could only read words, but not the meaning. Closing the book, Yun Ruoleng frowned somewhat impatiently: "Peach Blossom, what are you doing?"


    "Miss, don''t worry. Your servant will pack these things soon." Peach Blossom placed the items into the cabinet one by one as she smiled.


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched, and he sighed: "No need, putting too much stuff in would easily break, so it would be better to just put it in the box. Furthermore, Mrs. Luo brazenly sending me things is completely for the sake of showing off. We are just the used party. "


    "Really?" Peach Blossom asked stupidly.


    "Am I lying to you?" Yun Ruoleng was angered by her foolish look and waved his hand, "Let''s clean up. We''ll go congratulate Mrs. Luo in a while and also thank her for her kindness."


    Peach Blossom''s eyes immediately lit up. She smiled and said, "This servant had wanted to remind you of this earlier, but seeing that you''re reading a book, I didn''t want to disturb you."


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng pursed his lips and laughed, seeing that Peach Blossom had been cleaned up, he directly brought her there. Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Peach Blossom''s happy expression. He couldn''t help but feel curious, but he didn''t say anything.


    After all, the little girl had put all her intentions on her face.


    Very quickly, Yun Ruoleng arrived at the Luoshui Pavilion to express his gratitude. Seated on the soft couch, the lady dressed in plain clothes held the needle and the cloth in one hand while the other hand held onto the needle.


    "Mrs. Luo?" The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth lifted slightly, and laughed: "Aunt Luo should be very busy today, why are you so free?"


    "What did Seventh Miss say?" Mrs. Luo put down the things in his hands, and pointed to the spot opposite of him, "First Madam has taken care of the backyard neatly, I am only in charge of it for a few days, there is no need to gather so many people."


    "But you''ve already mustered your men!" Yun Ruoleng''s expression was slightly cold, but he had some doubts in his heart.


    From the looks of it, the Mrs. Luo had another plan?


    However, forget about everything else, just looking at Mrs. Luo''s almond eyes, it was truly a misty scene, beautiful to the point of making a woman feel pity for him. No wonder Yun Shicheng was always doting on her.


    Mrs. Luo pursed his lips and smiled when he heard this, and explained, "Seventh Miss has misunderstood. This is what the Old Master ordered me to do this morning.


    "Then I still have to thank Mrs. Luo for his good intentions. However, since there''s such an opportunity, we should take good care of it, shouldn''t we? " Yun Ruoleng''s expression softened a little, but he continued to probe.


    She did not believe that the Mrs. Luo truly did not covet the position of the First Madam.


    Seeing that Leng Ning was getting straight to the point, Mrs. Luo did not hide his words anymore. "Naturally, but can Seventh Miss help me? Closer and closer, if I want to take down First Madam, I am afraid it is impossible by myself. "


    Smiling faintly, Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, and the two of them reached an agreement.


    In this Minister¡¯s Mansion, the First Madam was their common enemy.


    "Seventh Miss, where do you plan to start?" The Mrs. Luo asked with a smile.


    "Yun Yueyu." Yun Ruoleng slowly said with a confident voice.


    Nodding his head in appreciation, Mrs. Luo passed an invitation to Yun Ruoleng and smiled: "This is an invitation for the Hundred Blossom Banquet.


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at Mrs. Luo, and was not in a hurry to receive it. Mrs. Luo seemed to have thought of something, and laughed: "I got it for you last night."


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng accept it, and after thanking him, he kept the invitation in his bosom.


    Actually, she did not really want to go to the Hundred Blossom Banquet, but since Yun Yueyu wanted to go, it could be said to be a breakthrough.


    After hurriedly leaving the Luoshui Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng went straight back to his courtyard. Unexpectedly, he saw an unexpected guest in his room, and almost shouted out in fear, "How can Your Highness enter a woman''s room as you please?"


    "Why not? I thought we had an agreement. " Jun Qingshang didn''t mind at all. He laid down leisurely on the soft ground, picked up the beautiful eyes and asked: "Where did you go?"


    "Your Highness, I do not remember that the agreement states that we should always be in and out of each other''s bedroom." Besides, it doesn''t seem to have anything to do with His Highness where I go. " Yun Ruoleng scoffed, he did not want to talk much with Jun Qingshang.


    This was simply a modern ambush investigation. Yun Ruoleng expressed that he could not accept this kind of setup.


    What if one day, when she was bathing, this regent also barged in, wouldn''t that be very troublesome?


    Jun Qingshang''s expression slightly darkened. "Are you unhappy?"


    The woman made herself angry every minute.


    "Am I supposed to be happy to see someone casually entering my room?" Yun Ruoleng said fearlessly.


    Jun Qingshang''s cold face did not say anything, but continued to emit cold Qi, like a human-shaped ice mountain.

 C61

    "Your Highness, why did you come here?" Just say it directly. "


    In the end, Yun Ruoleng could not take it anymore and asked impatiently.


    Seeing the slight impatience on Yun Ruoleng''s face, Jun Qingshang raised his hand and said, "This king really likes your painting, give me a few more paintings."


    Yun Ruoleng, "..."


    Can you scold people?


    "Just draw the one you''re most proficient in this time." Seeing Yun Ruoleng not saying a word, Jun Qingshang thought that she had agreed.


    Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Yun Ruoleng was immediately angered. "Your Highness! I''m not your exclusive painter, why would I let you order me around? "


    This time, Yun Ruoleng was shouting but Jun Qingshang did not get angry. Instead, he smiled, glanced at the cultivation manual beside Yun Ruoleng''s table and said: "How about we exchange that book?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up: You can understand that?


    "No." Jun Qingshang did not hide anything.


    "Are you kidding me!" Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched a few times.


    "But This King knows who can." Jun Qingshang picked up the beautiful eyes and said softly, "This kind of exchange, what do you think?"


    Yun Ruoleng held onto his head and thought for a moment, then nodded: "Alright, then Your Highness, please tell me, who should I learn that book from?"


    Jun Qingshang did not directly answer Yun Ruoleng. Instead, he stretched out his hand in front of Yun Ruoleng: "Where''s your jade pendant? Show it to This King. "


    "What do you want to do with it?" Yun Ruoleng held onto the jade pendant, an inexplicable feeling of wanting to protect his chick.


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s guarded look, Jun Qingshang''s beautiful beautiful eyes slightly narrowed. "Will this king still harm you?"


    Yun Ruoleng thought about it, and he realized that although Jun Qingshang was powerful, he had never hurt himself. Therefore, Yun Ruoleng unwillingly took the jade and handed it over.


    Jun Qingshang waved the jade pendant in front of him: "Don''t you feel that there''s no difference?"


    "There is!" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, "Ever since I had it, my strength increased, and my drawing skills became more powerful."


    "That''s right." Jun Qingshang paused for a moment, then asked, "Have you looked inside?"


    "Inside?" Yun Ruoleng glanced at the jade pendant and then looked at his own hand, the corners of his mouth twitched, "How can such a big person like me enter!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang frowned, although the girl in front of him was clever, but sometimes she could still be confused, and was really silly.


    Thus, the noble Regent looked at Yun Ruoleng as if he was looking at a fool.


    Sensing the meaning behind Jun Qingshang''s eyes, Yun Ruoleng quietly recalled, could he really go in? Thinking about that, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, excitedly pushing Jun Qingshang down: How do I get in?


    "Forget it!" Jun Qingshang stared at her in confusion. After a while, he passed the thing to Yun Ruoleng and asked, "When did you go in?


    "What?" Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang who was about to get up in disbelief, and he left just like that?


    "Don''t tell me you don''t know what to do?" Yun Ruoleng asked.


    "Is This King that kind of person in your eyes?" Jun Qingshang''s face turned slightly cold.


    "No ¡­" Yun Ruoleng shrunk his neck, he had chosen to submit in front of absolute strength.


    When Jun Qingshang saw this, a smile flashed past his eyes, but he said with a cold expression: "Remember what you promised me." With that, the man didn''t even stop and directly left Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    "¡­" The expression on Yun Ruoleng''s face changed again and again, as he scolded the eighteen generations of Jun Qingshang''s ancestors in his heart.


    Because Jun Qingshang was in a rush, he could only draw the simplest and best painting. Only after she finished drawing the two pictures did he realize one problem. Did he know something?


    When Yun Ruoleng thought of this, it was already too late, because the two paintings were already completed.


    In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed and the Hundred Flowers Banquet was approaching. Yun Ruoleng''s shop was opening three days away from the Hundred Flowers Banquet.


    The entrance to the embroidery workshop was packed with people. A few ready-to-wear clothes were propped up against shelves at the entrance so that passers-by could clearly see them.


    It was because of this that the entrance was packed with people. Many young mistresses from aristocratic families were crowded around the entrance.


    "So cute! The style of this item is also very beautiful. This is the first time I''ve seen it. "


    "That''s true. Rumor has it that this shop was opened by Leng Yun, one of the best painters in the world. These paintings were all created by him."


    "It''s him. It''s said that every one of his paintings can be sold for a high price. In the last rich auction, his paintings were sold for 100,000 silver."


    "I have to buy one!"


    "Wait for me here ¡­"


    When Yun Ruoleng, who was standing in the middle of the crowd saw this scene, his brows slightly raised.


    Tsk tsk, but it sounded quite good.


    "Miss, should we go take a look?" Peach Blossom''s eyes were shining as she looked at the crowded entrance of the store.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at her snappily. "So many people, how are you going to enter?"


    "True." Peach Blossom pulled her head back and sighed, "It''s a pity that we can''t join in the fun ourselves."


    Although Yun Ruoleng did not know what regrets she had, she was currently in a good mood. She patted Peach Blossom''s shoulder and laughed: "Young miss is treating you to meat!"


    Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng who left right after he finished speaking in shock, and quickly followed: "Miss, where are we going to eat meat?"


    "Didn''t you say that the First Pint Aroma Restaurant is the best restaurant in the capital? Let''s go and have a taste. "


    Peach Red said with some hesitation, "But ¡­" Miss, did you bring any money? "


    "This... "No." Only then did Yun Ruoleng remember that he did not bring any money with him when he went out, and he smiled awkwardly at Peach Blossom.


    "¡­" The corner of Peach Blossom''s mouth twitched, and she suddenly smiled. "Fortunately, this servant prepared it before I left."


    Seeing Peach Blossom taking out a silver note from her sleeve, Yun Ruoleng immediately laughed so hard that his eyes disappeared, and said: "Let''s go, the young miss will treat you to a big meal."


    "¡­" Peach Blossom was also speechless towards her young miss. Just a moment ago, she looked as if everything was over, but in the blink of an eye, she seemed to have become a completely different person.


    Yun Ruoleng simply did not have time to care about Peach Blossom''s thoughts, as she wanted to relax herself.


    Tao Hong, who was behind Yun Ruoleng, had complex emotions. She couldn''t help but call out to her Young Miss a few times.


    When the two of them stood at the door of "First Pint Aroma", Peach Blossom finally could not resist and pulled Yun Ruoleng who was about to enter. She said: "Young miss, although we have some money now, we can''t be this extravagant, can we?"


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at Peach Blossom, he knew that she was afraid that she would not have the money to use it in the future, so he lectured, "Isn''t the money used for cultivation? It takes money to make money, you know? "


    Peach Blossom seemed to understand what he meant and nodded her head. She knew that there was nothing she could do to stop Yun Ruoleng, so she could only lower her head and walk inside.

 C62

    When Yun Ruoleng entered, countless gazes landed on her body. Luckily, when she went out today, Peach Blossom had specially prepared a veil for her, just in time to cover her pretty face.


    "Are there any more empty rooms?"


    "Yes, but the location isn''t too good ¡­"


    "It''s nothing. It''s just a meal." Yun Ruoleng waved his hands grandly.


    Peach followed her anxiously, her brows locked in a frown.


    "Please come with me." Hearing this, the waiter immediately became happy and hurriedly led the way.


    Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes swept across the line of sight, and his face darkened. No matter what, even if his position was a bit lower, it would still be better than eating under the gaze of these gazes.


    Once inside, Yun Ruoleng was in high spirits as he held a menu made from wood tablets. He rubbed his chin and started thinking about what he needed to eat, then immediately instructed: "Snowy, you must advance slowly, Jiu Feng Chi ¡­ That''s it for now. "


    Yun Ruoleng ordered a lot of dishes in a row, and the waiter was naturally extremely happy.


    Looking at Peach Blossom who was standing by the side, Yun Ruoleng said with a stern face, "Sit."


    "Miss ¡­"


    "Cut the crap." Yun Ruoleng knew that since she was not going to talk about the main point, Peach Blossom would not sit down, so she asked: "Are you not going to listen to what the young miss has to say?"


    "Yes." Peach Blossom could only awkwardly sit down. She lowered her head as if she was not used to eating at the same table as the Miss.


    The room''s door was opened not long after. The waiter came in with a red lacquer tray. He said with a smile, "You two might have to wait a bit. There are a lot of people outside today, I''m afraid that you won''t be able to see us in here in a short time."


    Yun Ruoleng, on the other hand, did not mind and nodded her head. In the modern world, in order to eat something good, she could even stand and wait for two whole afternoons. Then she said: "It''s okay, it''s boring anyway.


    The waiter saw that Yun Ruoleng was easy to speak with, the smile on his face became much more genuine: "Please do not hesitate to instruct us."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head: "Okay, I have something to call you, you go ahead and busy yourself."


    Seeing the waiter agree, he threw the towel on his shoulder and left the room with a smile. Yun Ruoleng poured a cup of water and pushed it in front of Peach Blossom: "Do you have anything you want to eat?


    "No, no ¡­"


    "Are you being nice to me?" The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised, she suddenly felt that her own servant girl was extremely cute.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was teasing his servant, the private box''s door was suddenly knocked, Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, who would come knocking at this time?


    "Who is it?" Peach stood up quickly and walked to the door.


    "Master told me to ask the Seventh Miss if there are still people sitting here."


    Hearing the voice, Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes helplessly, and said: "Let him in." What a ghostly man.


    Only then did Peach Blossom open the door and speak a few words to An Ying before turning around to look at her young miss.


    "Why should I like someone who only knows how to use me?" Yun Ruoleng was so angry that his face turned red.


    "But the prince is very good to you!" Peach Blossom frowned, not understanding what her young miss meant.


    Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, but her expression told her her own meaning.


    Peach Blossom sighed helplessly. It looked like she would still need some time to get her young miss to accept the regent!


    Not long after An Ying asked this, a devilish man in a purple robe walked in and sat opposite to Yun Ruoleng without any hesitation. "What do you want to eat?"


    "His Highness is doing business?" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, this was good news!


    "You helped This King draw those paintings, count it as This King''s thanks." Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, naturally not caring about the money. Therefore, he smiled and said, "Leng Er is this king''s person, so this king will naturally not treat you unfairly."


    What did he mean by ''his''? Yun Ruoleng''s face darkened, he almost wanted to throw the table and leave.


    Until the waiter served the dishes, Yun Ruoleng''s face was still cold, he did not want to bother with this Lord Regent, who was getting more and more out of hand. With such a beautiful face coupled with such a personality, it was simply a waste!


    Looking at the chicken leg in the bowl, Yun Ruoleng clenched his teeth and poked it with all his might, as if he was trying to vent his anger by treating the chicken leg as Jun Qingshang.


    "What is the Seventh Miss doing?" The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth rose slightly.


    "Chicken leg." Yun Ruoleng gnashed his teeth.


    Jun Qingshang''s eyes flashed with a smile, he lowered his eyes without saying a word, and only said: "I look forward to your performance at the Hundred Blossom Banquet."


    "Thank you." Yun Ruoleng answered, he hid the light in his eyes and continued, "However, Leng Er can''t compare to the two big sisters in the family, so Your Highness should focus on them."


    Humph, she doesn''t want to be a regent''s consort, she''s too tired!


    Glimmers danced in Jun Qingshang''s eyes as she smiled. This little wild cat was really interesting.


    There was a lot of time to come.


    In the blink of an eye, the Hundred Blossom Banquet was before them. Naturally, the Mrs. Luo manager did not mistreat Yun Ruoleng.


    Early that morning, nanny''s Sea nanny sent over clothes and jewelry to him. He smiled and said, "This is a copy of the Seventh Miss''s rules, everything else has been sent to the First and Third Miss."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, the Peach Blossom beside him had already taken out two taels of silver and passed it over: "nanny, take this over to drink some tea."


    "Thank you, Seventh Miss." The Sea nanny did not hold back and accepted it with a smile.


    Once Sea nanny left, a nervous expression suddenly surfaced on her rosy face: "Miss, are we really going to the Hundred Flowers Banquet?"


    "Of course." Yun Ruoleng picked up the clothes and looked at it carefully, then smiled and nodded.


    The clothes in front of him, regardless of style or style, were all new in the capital this year. This Mrs. Luo had really put in a lot of effort in order to not fall behind. In the past, who would care about the Seventh Miss s in this house?


    Peach Blossom saw her young miss being so calm, thought and thought, then kneeled in front of Yun Rou, gritting her teeth: "Miss, this servant thinks that working with Mrs. Luo is inappropriate. This Mrs. Luo is too scheming, this servant cannot understand what she is thinking. "


    This silly girl. Yun Ruoleng smiled as she shook her head, picking out her beautiful phoenix eyes. "What you said is not right. To Mrs. Luo, her goal is only to get to the position of Madam, and I want to pull First Madam down. Cooperation? Why not? "


    "Then miss means ¡­" Peach Blossom frowned, "Continue being allies with her?"


    "There are no eternal enemies or allies in this world." Yun Ruoleng''s slender finger lightly tapped the small wooden table, and said indifferently, "I am currently a grasshopper on the same line as her, First Madam will not let her off, much less let me off. In the future, we should be able to adapt as we please. "

 C63

    Once the First Madam was no longer here, who knew what would happen to him?


    "This servant understands." Peach Blossom nodded thoughtfully. "Miss, it''s getting late. It''s time to change."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded and sat in front of the makeup table. She already had an exceptional appearance, and with the addition of Peach Blossom and Peach Blossom, her originally exquisite appearance became even more beautiful.


    "Young, young miss is so beautiful ¡­" Peach Red stood in front of the mirror in a daze, completely stunned by Yun Ruoleng''s appearance.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, out of the corner of his eyes he saw a butterfly muslin, and could not help but be startled, "This was also sent by Mrs. Luo?" She didn''t seem to notice it just now.


    Peach Blossom shook her head and said, "No, it was sent by Third Miss."


    "Third sister ¡­" Yun Ruoleng muttered, a trace of warmth appearing in his eyes.


    To put it bluntly, the Hundred Blossom Banquet was the biggest blind date ceremony in the capital. The people gathered here were all the young men and women with a certain status. Every year after this day, the unmarried man would come out and look for his partner.


    This year was no exception, furthermore, after news of the Regent Jun Qingshang''s arrival spread, more and more people came to attend.


    The place was bustling with noise and excitement. After Yun Ruoleng arrived at the place, he looked around curiously.


    The quality of this ancient blind date was pretty high. Yun Ruoleng smiled as he admired the beautiful ladies coming and going.


    Yun Qingyao slowly came down from the carriage in front, gentle and dignified. However, he carefully instructed Yun Ruoleng, "Leng Er, the person who has arrived today is either rich or noble. You can restrain your temper a little."


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and nodded, saying: "Don''t worry third sister, if they don''t provoke me, I won''t take the initiative to provoke them."


    Yun Qingyao nodded, she knew that no matter how much she said it, it would be useless, because Yun Ruoleng had that kind of character.


    Only, the Yun Ruoleng sisters did not know that before they even arrived, there were already people who wanted to cause trouble for them.


    The two sisters chatted and laughed as a palace maid led them into the palace. Their appearance immediately silenced the bustling banquet. Yun Ruoleng and Yun Qingyao stood together. One was light while the other was elegant, but they interacted brilliantly, attracting the attention of many young masters.


    This feeling made Yun Ruoleng and Yun Qingyao, who never liked being the center of attention, to subconsciously frown, before waiting for the two to speak, a sweet voice suddenly sounded out.


    "Third sister and seventh sister, you two are really early."


    Yun Ruo felt disdain in her heart. She didn''t even need to look to know who it was, she just didn''t want to care about her.


    Yun Qingyao, however, was not as casual as Yun Ruoleng. Turning his head, he smiled and explained, "Big sister, before we leave, you did not need to wait for me and Seventh Sister. So it turns out that big sister has already arrived."


    Yun Yueyu''s expression slightly changed as he coldly snorted: "When I left, mother said that you hadn''t tidied up well, so cousin and I were the first to leave. However, if you guys are here, you must follow the rules. Third Marquis and Fourth Marquis are here, hurry up and greet them. "


    Yun Ruoleng swept his gaze across Yun Yueyu, and only now did his gaze fall on the two men beside Yun Yueyu. With a smile in his phoenix eyes, he said, "This little girl went out with big sister for the first time, and I don''t know who the two of you are.


    "Third Prince, Fourth Prince." Because of her identity as a witch, Yun Qingyao slightly bent his body, and did not kneel.


    "No problem." The man who spoke had a picturesque appearance, a pair of beautiful eyes s that were slightly raised, and a faintly discernible smile hung on the corner of his mouth.


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but think of another man who also had a pair of beautiful eyes, and was lost in thought for a while. Seeing this, Yun Qingyao quietly pulled at the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s clothes: Seventh Sister, this is the Fourth Marquis.


    Yun Ruoleng was blessed: "Fourth Prince."


    "This is really unbelievable!" A mocking voice sounded from the side. Yun Ruoleng subconsciously raised his head and coincidentally met with a pair of bottomless hawk eyes. His heart trembled.


    This man was most likely not simple.


    "This is the Third Marquis, everyone here calls him ¡­"


    However, before Yun Qingyao could finish his introduction, Third Marquis Jun Qingling had already touched his chin and rapidly blinked his eyes. He looked at Yun Ruoleng deeply and said with a sigh, "There''s a beauty in the north who is able to cause the downfall of nations and cause the downfall of cities."


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows furrowed even more, and he suddenly laughed: "May I ask Fourth Prince, are your eyes cramping?"


    "¡­" She must have done it on purpose! Jun Qingling''s interest was piqued.


    "Leng Er!" Yun Qingyao''s face changed, just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted.


    "How dare you, Yun Ruoleng! How dare you speak like that to the Fourth Prince! "


    "Miss, may I ask if I have spoken to you?" Yun Ruoleng looked back, her entire body releasing a burst of cold air, it was a lady dressed in pink with a large amount of buns, her large and lively eyes looked extremely cute and adorable. However, that pair of eyes was tainted by jealousy. Although it was vivid and spirited, it was not clear.


    "You ¡­" The pink-clothed girl was so angry that her face turned red. However, due to the presence of the few princes, she did not dare to say any harsh words.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to speak, he heard a familiar voice coming from behind him.


    "Indeed, you are quite impudent." Jun Qingshang slowly stood by Yun Ruoleng''s side and gave her an indiscernible glance.


    "Greetings, Regent." At first, everyone was in the mood to watch a show, but after the Regent''s arrival, the woman quickly hid her blushing face and couldn''t help but raise her head to sneak a glance at him.


    Yun Ruoleng became smarter this time, as she followed everyone and kneeled down.


    Jun Qingshang swept a cold glance across everyone on the ground, then fixed his eyes on the two men in front of him and said: "Today, this duke has only gone through the process.


    "Royal father, please select a daughter as your first wife within the Minister¡¯s Mansion. It looks like the Regent has found someone he likes. Unfortunately, this woman does not seem to be what royal father wants. " Jun Qingfeng perked his eyes and looked at Jun Qingshang sarcastically.


    Jun Qingshang swept his gaze across Yun Ruoleng, and saw that her face was somewhat indignant. An additional trace of a smile appeared on her expressionless face, "So what?


    Saying that, he turned around and walked away. As he walked, he said: "It''s the Hundred Blossom Banquet! "Of course it''s a hundred flowers competing for beauty. What is there to compete for?"


    "In reply to Your Highness, women compete in zither, chess, book, painting, song, dance, and embroidery. Men compete in zither, chess, book, painting, archery, and riding." An Ying cupped his hands together, and immediately reported, "Last year, the young master of the Prime Minister''s family won the title of the number one young master in the capital, while Miss Minister¡¯s Mansion won the title of the capital''s most talented girl."

 C64

    "Is that so?" Jun Qingshang turned around and glanced at Yun Ruoleng.


    This glance made Yun Ruoleng feel weak. Could it be that on a whim, this prince wanted her to show off?


    "Let''s begin." Jun Qingshang did not follow any common sense to begin with, and with a wave of his hand, the Hundred Blossom Banquet began. The young mistresses went up on stage one after another, wanting to attract the attention of their sweethearts. The noble young masters also began to show their elegance one after another, with the intention of finding a beautiful woman to please.


    Yun Ruoleng sat at the bottom. At the beginning, he was rather happy watching it, but at the end, he felt bored and couldn''t help but yawn.


    Suddenly, the lady in pink who was provoking earlier ran over, and squeezed away Yun Qingyao who was beside Yun Ruoleng, and waved her claws as she said: "Hey! "Trash, do you dare to compete with me in dancing?"


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the lady in front of him carefully. She was indeed cute, but her overbearing attitude made people not like her. Yun Ruoleng sighed: "Why should I agree?"


    "It can''t be that you don''t even know the rules of the Hundred Blossom Banquet, right?" The moment the pink-clothed girl finished speaking, even more people started to laugh at her.


    "So he''s a short-sighted ghost!" Another person appeared behind the pink-clothed girl. Although this person''s appearance was average, the jealousy in his eyes couldn''t be concealed. "You can compete with me in chess first!"


    "What game of chess?" Yun Yueyu''s voice suddenly sounded out, her tone was gentle, but her eyes were filled with viciousness, "My Seventh Sister is proficient in drawing and playing, why do you need to trouble yourselves?"


    Master of zither, chess, painting? Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly as he looked at Yun Yueyu. Who didn''t know that his Minister¡¯s Mansion Seventh Miss was a sloppy Seventh Miss? Yun Yueyu merely said this to humiliate her and give others a chance to provoke him.


    Just as expected, just as Yun Yueyu finished speaking, the pink dressed lady started to speak: "Sister Yu, you can''t be joking right? What can she do with just a bag of grass!? "


    "Little sister Yu''er, don''t underestimate her." Yun Yueyu chuckled while covering her lips, but her tone was full of ridicule, "You can''t judge a book by its cover, can you, Seventh Sister?"


    "Compared to elder sister, younger sister is nothing." Yun Ruoleng chose to reject. Yun Ruoleng had seen too many of these scenes that she would not foolishly run back to the competition and waste her time.


    "That''s right!" Yun Yueyu stopped smiling and sneered: "I am the first daughter of Minister¡¯s Mansion, and furthermore I am also the first daughter who is born with the power of the witch. May I ask, other than the princess, who else can be compared with me?"


    "Big Sis is really arrogant." Yun Ruoleng sneered. Honestly speaking, with Yun Yueyu''s Shaman Energy, she was indeed the center of attention for all the people in the world. Furthermore, she was the young miss of a second rank official''s family, with such an identity, perhaps even a princess would not be a match for her. However, everything was fine, and in the end, could not even compare to the word "better".


    "You''re not going to get sour grapes, are you?" Yun Yueyu scoffed, "You won''t be able to escape today, after all, you can''t lose face with so many young mistresses from aristocratic families."


    This was a blatant threat on Yun Yueyu''s part. Yun Ruoleng disdainfully swept his gaze over her. "So what?"


    "Seventh Sister, don''t use the Regent to help you a few times. You can offend people at will." Yun Yueyu seemed to know what Yun Ruoleng was going to say, and said, "Today is the Hundred Blossom Banquet, even if Your Highness wants to help you, I''m afraid you will not be able to."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes quickly flashed with a hint of light. From the looks of it, it seemed to be a free-for-all duel?


    Jun Qingshang didn''t have the time or time to take care of himself, so he naturally didn''t have the time to take care of others either. Heh, did she really think that she wouldn''t dare to accept the challenge?


    Yun Yueyu looked at Yun Ruoleng''s changing little face and thought that she was afraid. He snorted lightly, "Seventh Sister, don''t lose too much face for Minister¡¯s Mansion. If you think you can''t, you can throw in the towel and risk your life to compete with me.


    "Elder sister''s provocation is useless." Yun Ruoleng scoffed, and continued, "Since we are going to compete, then there must be some betting points, otherwise, wouldn''t there be nothing to watch?"


    The wager? Hearing that, the eyes of the group of aristocratic ladies lit up. Lan Yu''er sneered and said, "What could possibly be the prize money on you?"


    "That''s not necessarily true." Yun Yueyu''s eyes lit up, and said softly: "If you lose, you have to swear that you will never see the Regent again in this life, how about it?"


    Yun Ruoleng was overjoyed in his heart, and agreed without hesitation: "But if you lose, then swear to not bother my sister again."


    "Alright!" The young mistresses of the various families felt that they had struck it rich, and they all responded with a disdainful smile. After all, from Yun Yueyu, they had heard that Yun Ruoleng and the Regent Prince were getting closer and closer.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, but he said: "But there''s so many people, so I can''t compete one by one, so we''re holding a group competition. Of the seven matches, I can take first place in all four matches, and the top three of the two matches will be my victory, how about it? "


    "Alright." The people on scene mocked Yun Ruoleng''s arrogance once again.


    From start to finish, the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth had a smile. Seeing that, Yun Qingyao did not stop her, and only pulled on her clothes, saying worriedly: "Be careful."


    Yun Ruoleng revealed a big smile to her. "Don''t worry, big sister!"


    "Yes." Although Yun Qingyao was worried, looking at Yun Ruoleng''s confident look, he finally felt more at ease.


    The first match was a zither, Yun Ruoleng had liked a zither since he was young, not only did he learn to draw, he also learned a zither. At this moment, he was rather happy. Sure enough, the hard training from back then had not been in vain.


    Yun Yueyu sat in front of the zither table, his fingers gently fiddling with the zither strings: "There are a lot of zither here, pick any of these sister!"


    "Thank you, big sister." Yun Ruoleng faintly smiled as she found a seat and sat down. Her fingers played on the zither once, and the sound of flowing water flowed out from her fingertips, causing everyone''s expression to change slightly.


    This was because the competition here had attracted a lot of people, especially the young masters. Originally, they had had their own competitions, but their curiosity was piqued and they wanted to watch this most ridiculous competition in the capital.


    "From the looks of it, this Seventh Miss is probably an expert in zither arts." Someone suddenly said in an indifferent tone.


    The person who knew the zither naturally knew, and just happened to hear those words, his originally beautiful face immediately darkened. He glared fiercely at Yun Ruoleng, and let him make you proud of yourself for a while.


    There were more than ten people competing in zither techniques, all of them were stunned by the sound from the test, and then, everyone stared at Yun Ruoleng unwillingly.


    "We''ll play high and low together, whoever can''t connect to us, or those who can''t make a ruckus, will withdraw by themselves." Yun Ruoleng swept a glance across everyone, it had just started, it seemed like the show would become more and more exciting.


    "This is a good suggestion." Lan Yu''er''s cute face revealed a smile of ridicule, as if she was waiting for Yun Ruoleng to make a joke.

 C65

    Very good, Yun Ruoleng smiled, she liked to play the pig to eat the tiger.


    In the past, he had always been disdainful when watching TV, but now that he thought about it, an invisible face-smacking was actually the most humiliating thing to him.


    "This King also thinks that it''s not bad." Jun Qingshang stood below the stage and looked at the fearless women, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked, "Since that''s the case, this king will personally host it for all of you!"


    Jun Qingshang''s words caused an uproar, but Yun Ruoleng''s face changed slightly. This bastard, wouldn''t he be pushing her to the side if he joined in the fun now? She didn''t want to be the enemy of all women!


    If she, a woman without any magical powers, could get the favor of the Lord Regent, then what?


    Therefore, Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly and said: "I''ve heard that Your Highness is happy to join in the fun, looks like the rumors weren''t false."


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang said indifferently, but in truth, he was not someone who meddled with other people''s business, so once he spoke, many people were stunned, and seeing his indifferent look, it was even harder for them to understand.


    "Since you''ve decided, let''s begin!" Yun Ruoleng said bluntly.


    Yun Yueyu was secretly happy in her heart, with such an order, it seemed like her Seventh Sister did not want to live anymore, but she did not see Jun Qingshang getting angry, and only saw him nodding, and his expression turned ugly.


    But Jun Qingshang did not say much. Instead, he nodded and said, "The competition begins."


    As soon as he finished speaking, an elegant sound of a zither rang out. Because it was played by a group, some people couldn''t keep up with the rhythm. Their faces were red with embarrassment as they stopped, followed by another group of people.


    It had to be said that Yun Yueyu had some ability, if not she would not follow Yun Ruoleng''s steps to the end.


    "This ¡­"


    "The two young mistresses from the Yun Family are truly extraordinary!"


    "When did my sister learn to play?" After the song ended, Yun Yueyu''s face turned ugly. She actually fought to a standstill with this trash.


    Yun Ruoleng supported himself with his head, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "It was personally taught by Your Highness."


    Yun Yueyu''s face became even uglier, and almost jumped up to tear off Yun Ruoleng''s face. However, since Yun Yueyu was angry, Yun Ruoleng was naturally happy, and the smile on his face increased by quite a bit.


    Yun Yueyu took a deep breath to quell the anger in his heart, and said: "It''s difficult to determine victory or defeat. How about the rest of our sisters play a song for us?


    Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "Big sister is really thinking too much. With this, even if each of you is only worth 50 to 60 points, Leng Er''s performance will at most be perfect with no more than 10 points. Adding it up, Leng Er is definitely going to lose. "


    "Why is it unfair?" Yun Yueyu''s eyes were filled with tears, as if she had suffered a grievance. "Everyone can naturally see who has won and who has lost, so why should Seventh Sister worry?"


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng chuckled and stood up, "Even so, Leng Er does not agree." What a joke, after she finishes the competition, and was still able to watch the competition with more points, she would not be so stupid to believe Yun Yueyu''s words.


    "How can it be up to you to speak!" Yun Yueyu was immediately angered. You don''t agree? Who does Yun Ruoleng think she is!


    "As a participant, does little sister not have the right to speak?" Yun Ruoleng had a mocking smile on his face.


    Yun Yueyu wanted to refute her, but he couldn''t find a reason to do so. In a flash, she turned pitiful once again.


    He was forcing himself to do it step by step? Yun Ruoleng was almost angered to the point of laughing by the white lotus, while the people sitting down could not hear what the two were saying, and could only watch Yun Yueyu''s actions.


    The man immediately felt pity for her, while the woman held herself in an attitude of watching a good show.


    "Your Highness, what should we do?" Yun Yueyu suddenly turned to look at Jun Qingshang, who was not far away, and asked with a flushed face.


    Jun Qingshang glanced at Yun Ruoleng and smiled, "Luo Yifan, although you are not familiar with the few of you, your talent is outstanding.


    The corners of Luo Yifan''s mouth twitched as he was suddenly called out. His long and narrow eyes narrowed as he looked at the calm and composed woman sitting on the stage and the slightly sunken face of the man. What else was there that he wasn''t clear about?


    "Yes sir!" Luo Yifan scolded Jun Qingshang a thousand times in his heart, but the smile on his face was as calm as ever, "Ladies, please!"


    Yun Ruoleng supported his head up as he watched the remaining young mistresses play the zither. When it came to Yun Yueyu''s turn, he looked to be in a solemn mood and waved his hand gently, the sound of the zither was indeed pleasing to the ears.


    In this way, she would have to come up with something new.


    After the song ended, Yun Yueyu looked at Yun Ruoleng provocatively, and smiled with satisfaction. It was her best performance, three or four times better than when she''d performed in a group. Yun Yueyu refused to believe that Yun Ruoleng could even compare to her!


    Yun Ruoleng laughed and raised her hand to lightly stroke the zither strings. A song that she had never heard before flowed out from her fingertips, like the sound of an empty valley. Everyone couldn''t help but to slowly close their eyes, as if they were looking at an endless plain that was free and at ease.


    After the song ended, Yun Ruoleng stroked the still trembling zither with both of his hands and smiled: "I''ll be troubling Young Master Luo."


    Luo Yifan was slightly startled, he did not expect Yun Ruoleng to be a true scholar, and only after a long time did he gently and elegantly laugh: "This tune is very fresh and agile, but I''m sorry, but I''m not very knowledgeable, so what''s the name of this song?"


    "I don''t know either, but it was just something I casually played." Yun Ruoleng smiled, but at the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, after so many years of practicing the zither, she had the time to write her score in the modern world, which was why it was so convenient.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, everyone turned to look. Playing the zither was not a difficult matter, as most young miss knew how to play. However, if he were to compose a melody himself, it would be impossible for him to compose it with such ingenuity without true skill.


    For a moment, everyone seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Yun Ruoleng with a more probing gaze.


    Yun Yueyu clenched his teeth as he watched, feeling his anger burning.


    Seeing Luo Yifan announce that she was the victor, Yun Ruoleng''s face turned ashen. He had no choice but to force a smile.


    In reality, in terms of zither, zither, books, and painting, Yun Ruoleng was the best at drawing and not the guqin. Those who were able to draw definitely had good handwriting, which was why the zither, book, and painting, Yun Ruoleng got first place without any suspense, and third place in chess.


    Following that, it was a song and dance, Yun Ruoleng broke through everyone and sang a song that no one had ever heard before, performing a folk dance that no one had ever seen before. The faces of all the young mistresses darkened, obviously unable to believe that they had lost to this idiot.


    In the end, Yun Ruoleng gave up on embroidery and said, "I don''t know about that."


    "¡­" Everyone looked at her speechlessly. This was indeed straightforward. They did not try to defend themselves.

 C66

    "I thought Seventh Sister knew everything." Yun Yueyu finally found the words to strike a blow on Yun Ruoleng, and snorted lightly, "You don''t even know how to work female, how can you serve your husband."


    "There''s no need for Big Sis to worry about that. However, even if the female workers lose, Leng Er seems to still be in first place. " Yun Ruoleng laughed, he did not want Yun Yueyu to get away scot-free at all.


    Yun Yueyu''s face instantly became ugly. Just as he was about to reprimand her, she laughed and said: "According to our agreement, big sister and ¡­ Isn''t it time for you ladies to fulfill your promise? " Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows and smiled at Yun Yueyu.


    Yun Yueyu''s face turned ashen, and she couldn''t help but swallow her words back down her throat. In exchange, she gave a gentle smile and said, "It''s really rare for little sister to have her results today. It''s all thanks to father and mother''s meticulous care and nurturing."


    Tsk, he''s pretty strong. Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrows, with a few words, she divided all her skills into Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    However, Yun Yueyu did not feel that his words were shameful. Instead, the smile on his face became even more pleased with himself: "Younger sister has won first place in the Hundred Flowers Banquet this time, which can be considered as bringing honor to the Minister¡¯s Mansion."


    "Elder sister''s words are reasonable." Yun Ruoleng unhurriedly spoke out, but turned back to the topic, "In short, after today, all of you misses shouldn''t bother finding trouble with me, you should admit your defeat if you want to."


    The faces of the young mistresses from the various families did not look too good, but due to face, they could only nod and agree to this matter.


    Yun Qingyao who was below broke out in a cold sweat for Yun Ruoleng. When she came down from the stage, Yun Qingyao pulled her back: "Are you alright?"


    When Yun Ruoleng saw the caring eyes of his own sister, his heart was immediately warmed. He smiled at her, "I''m fine."


    "It''s good that you''re fine."


    Yun Qingyao''s words made her extremely nervous. Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "Third sister, don''t think too much. There are so many people watching on the stage, do they still dare to bully me?"


    Yun Qingyao thought about it and felt that it was reasonable, thus he finally relaxed. Seeing that everyone had dispersed, he said: "It''s almost noon, let''s go to the banquet!"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded obediently: "I''ll listen to what third sister says."


    Yun Qingyao laughed, just like an ice beauty who melted in an instant.


    Yun Yueyu stared at the back of Yun Ruoleng and with his poisonous eyes, her expression becoming extremely ugly. Since she was young, she had been the focus of everyone here, and now that Yun Ruoleng had appeared, how could she contain her anger?


    "Miss, Miss ¡­" "I, let''s go to the banquet as well ¡­" One of the maidservants beside Yun Yueyu said in a trembling voice.


    Yun Yueyu coldly glanced at her, and without saying a word, he began walking in the direction that Yun Ruoleng had left in.


    During the banquet, Jun Qingshang, dressed in a black robe, sat at the seat of honor with a stern expression. He held onto a wine cup, glanced at the people below, and continued drinking.


    The banquet was split between men and women with the man sitting on the left and the woman sitting on the right. Yun Ruoleng and Yun Qingyao had arrived not too late, after all, they were not fully seated yet.


    Yun Ruoleng did not greet Jun Qingshang when he entered the door, he only slightly nodded his head and found a seat to sit in.


    Yun Qingyao was startled, then blessed Jun Qingshang by his side and scolded him: "You cannot forget the basic etiquette when you meet His Highness, it doesn''t matter if it is a normal occasion, but this is a banquet."


    Yun Ruoleng supported his head and glanced at the man seated at the head of the table, then turned to his sister and shook his head: "It''s alright, His Highness is magnanimous, he won''t say anything."


    "¡­" Yun Qingyao finally understood that even if he said all his saliva today, his little sister would not bow down to him.


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze fell on the unaffected Yun Ruoleng, and his sword-like eyebrows knitted together slightly. This woman was really ¡­


    On the first day of the Hundred Blossom Banquet, Yun Ruoleng''s reputation as the number one talented girl had already spread throughout the entire capital.


    After Yun Yueyu returned home, his expression was extremely pale, and Mo Shu who was beside her did not even dare to breathe.


    "Slut!" Yun Yueyu reached out and angrily pushed away the tea set on the table.


    Mo Shu jumped in fright, he quickly kneeled down and comforted her: "I feel that Seventh Miss is very evil, why do you have to lower yourself to a woman of that evil sect!"


    "The devil?" Yun Yueyu squinted, "Indeed. For someone who has never touched a zither or a pen to be able to do something like this, I''m afraid that it is not as simple as being an evil being! "


    "Miss, you mean ¡­"


    "Go to the Hibiscus Courtyard and greet mother!" Yun Yueyu retracted all of his anger, stood up and walked out.


    After hurriedly walking to the Hibiscus Courtyard with Mo Shu, Yun Yueyu recounted what happened today to the First Madam. First Madam''s already restless heart became even more agitated. "You said that slut has this kind of ability?"


    "That''s right!" Yun Yueyu said flustered and exasperated, "At that time, I only wanted to make her look bad, but I didn''t expect her zither skills and painting skills to be so good. This is especially true for painting techniques. Even the princes were shocked by it. "


    "How could this be ¡­" First Madam frowned in disbelief, "Could it be that she was faking everything in the past?"


    "It''s not impossible!" Yun Yueyu was so angry that her eyebrows creased, as she said fiercely.


    First Madam frowned and thought for a moment before sighing in annoyance, "Now that her hasty title has been washed away, I''m afraid that she will be highly regarded by the Regent."


    Yun Yueyu pursed her lips: "Even if her reputation is good, at most she''s a talented girl. She can''t do anything big."


    First Madam only felt that his daughter was extremely innocent and adorable. "She borrowed your hand to wash off the stains on her body, then she would have the ability to place the stains on your body."


    "Should... It shouldn''t be, right? " Yun Yueyu was slightly stunned, his voice grew weaker and weaker, and in the end, he could barely hear her clearly.


    First Madam shook his head. Seems like it was time to make his move.


    Yun Yueyu didn''t know what First Madam was thinking. At the moment, her heart was also filled with fear, afraid that she would act as First Madam had said.


    When Yun Ruoleng returned to the Minister¡¯s Mansion, the first thing he did was to be called to the study room by Yun Shicheng. Yun Ruoleng stared at the man who was immersed in reading, and slowly opened his mouth: "What is father looking for Leng Er for?"


    Yun Shicheng did not reply Yun Ruoleng. Instead, he pointed to the seat beside him: "Come sit."


    Come and sit? Yun Ruoleng walked to Yun Shicheng''s side and sat down, then continued to ask. "Father, why are you looking for your daughter?"


    "It''s nothing. I just heard that you''ve done a great job at the banquet today ¡­"


    "Father wanted to ask me where I learned all this?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed in his heart. Did he now know what had happened to his daughter? It was a pity that she would not tell him!


    "Yes." Yun Shicheng was not embarrassed to be seen through, he only nodded naturally.

 C67

    "Leng Er secretly learned this when big sister and third sister were learning." Yun Ruoleng lowered his head, his voice somewhat choked with emotions, as if he would cry in the next second while complaining about how indifferent he had been to her for so many years.


    Yun Shicheng laughed somewhat embarrassedly: "It''s fine now, you can go back first."


    "Yes, Father." Yun Ruoleng stood up and left without looking back.


    Yun Shicheng rubbed his forehead. He didn''t actually believe what Yun Ruoleng had said, but seeing that she didn''t want to say it, he knew that he wouldn''t be able to get anything out of her no matter how many questions he asked. Besides, as long as His Highness the Regent likes it, it doesn''t matter if his daughter has a little secret.


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but burst out laughing the moment he walked out of the study room.


    "Miss, what''s wrong?" Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng who suddenly stopped and asked curiously.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: "No worries, I''ve been tormenting myself for the whole day and I''m tired. I still have to attend the banquet tomorrow, I need to rest early." After which, he walked towards his own room.


    Tao Hong tilted her head, and looked at Yun Ruoleng''s disappearing figure in puzzlement. She always felt that today, Miss had something on her mind.


    Yun Ruoleng''s emotions were complicated. After returning to his room, he drew on a piece of paper with the brush. He raised his hand and put away the painting. Then, he stood by the window and looked out at the moonlight. His mind became heavy.


    "What are you thinking about?"


    Yun Ruoleng was not surprised by the sudden outburst, he sighed: "Your Highness is really free."


    Jun Qingshang laughed noncommittally, his gaze sweeping across the pen and ink that had yet to be put away, "Seventh Miss''s performance today is truly impressive."


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng slowly turned around and stared coldly at the man in front of him.


    "Isn''t it?" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrow, this girl was really amazing just by being quiet!


    "Then wouldn''t I be in trouble?" The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, "In the future, I will have to trouble Your Highness to protect Leng Er."


    "¡­" The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth twitched, what does this woman want to do now?


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly sighed, and spoke with understanding: "Since Your Highness is unwilling, it seems like Leng Er will still protect himself."


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s face twitched.


    "Oh yeah, it''s already late, what is Your Highness doing trespassing into Leng Er''s room?" Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, "Your highness, you aren''t just here to chat with Leng Er, right?"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s face turned slightly black.


    "If you are, then we also finished our conversation that day. Your Highness, please go back!" Yun Ruoleng withdrew the light smile on his face, and his slender finger pointed towards the door.


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes sank slightly: "Looks like this king is too good to you!"


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng subconsciously shrunk his neck back, but thinking that trespassing into his room was not right, why should he be afraid of him? So Yun Ruoleng glared at him fiercely.


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows. Naturally, he did not miss the expression on her face just now.


    "Who ¡­ who''s afraid of you?!" Yun Ruoleng straightened his neck and braced himself to shout.


    Jun Qingshang felt that the woman was really adorable, the smile on her face became even wider, and she said, "Since you''re not afraid, why are you even trembling with fear?"


    "Can I be cold?" Even Yun Ruoleng himself thought that it was absurd, but it was difficult to take back everything he said, and even more so, he couldn''t take back what he said.


    "Does this June''s weather make you shiver?"


    Having been seen through by Jun Qingshang with a single sentence, Yun Ruoleng''s face reddened, and he tried his best to calm down. However, he did not get angry, and laughed lightly: "Compared to Your Highness coming to someone else''s room in the middle of the night to chat, what is Leng Er worth now?"


    Jun Qingshang also felt that it was really strange. He had originally wanted to go to bed, but his head was filled with the shadow of this little person. Hence, he came here very fidgety, when he saw her standing alone in front of the window, he couldn''t help but say a few words.


    All in all, it was all very strange.


    Jun Qingshang did not get angry. He only glanced at her and chuckled: "Who said this king is fine?"


    "What''s the matter?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, "I wonder if Your Highness has proper business or nothing to do with it?"


    "Yun Ruoleng, do you not want to anger this king for a moment? Jun Qingshang''s face instantly filled with dark clouds. This damned woman, she was truly fearless!


    Yun Ruoleng shrunk her neck again. How could she have forgotten that the person in front of her was the cold-faced King of Hell?


    Jun Qingshang saw that Yun Ruoleng was a little afraid, and his heart felt a lot more at ease. Thus, he smiled and said, "This king came to tell you how to use your own consciousness to enter the jade pendant."


    "Really?" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, then dimmed: Didn''t you say you were thinking of a way?


    "You can think of something like this?" Jun Qingshang sneered, "Bring me the jade pendant."


    "Oh." Yun Ruoleng took off the jade pendant from his body and presented it to Jun Qingshang with both hands.


    Jun Qingshang''s eyes swept across the jade pendant as his face slightly darkened: "Don''t you feel it?"


    Yun Ruoleng innocently shook his head: "I have thought of many ways, but I just can''t get in."


    "What methods have I tried?" Jun Qingshang was in disbelief, this jade pendant was a pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants with his own life, how could he be the only one able to enter?


    "Using spiritual sense to break through ¡­"


    "I suddenly feel that you''re very stupid." Jun Qingshang suddenly opened his mouth and interrupted Yun Ruoleng, looking amused: "Gathering the Shaman Energy, and slowly pouring it into your mouth, have you tried it yet?"


    "How do we assemble?" Yun Ruoleng was truly confused this time. She knew that she had Shaman Energy, but she still did not know how to use it.


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly, "This matter cannot be rushed."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng curled his lips and looked at Jun Qingshang pitifully.


    Jun Qingshang quickly turned his face away, coughed lightly: "It''s getting late, this matter will be discussed with you tomorrow after the banquet."


    If you were to mention Yun Ruoleng disappearing in front of him right now, the current Yun Ruoleng really wanted to slap him a few times. But Jun Qingshang had already left after speaking those words, and simply did not give her a chance to refute.


    Yun Ruoleng sat on the side of the bed like a deflated ball. He sighed lightly, it seemed that if he wanted to become stronger, he would have to rely on Jun Qingshang, who told his current Inherent Skill not to leak out!


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng and Yun Qingyao were still participating in the Hundred Flowers Banquet together, and the banquet today was much calmer.


    "Leng Er!" Yun Qingyao was pulled into the crowd, and shook his head helplessly.


    "When I compete, these people will come to join in the fun. If they do, I can''t just sit around idly!" Yun Ruoleng did not know whether to laugh or cry.


    "Sister, look, look!" Yun Ruoleng suddenly shouted excitedly, as if he no longer had the image of a noble lady.

 C68

    Yun Qingyao looked towards the direction where she was pointing at, and saw arrows piercing through the target one after another, each of them coincidentally aimed at the first arrow, smoothly slicing the first arrow into two.


    Due to the excessive force, the three-pronged arrow was still trembling slightly when it hit the target. Yun Qingyao couldn''t help but exclaim.


    Yun Ruoleng was immediately excited. He had seen the Hundred Feet Piercing Sun on television, but seeing the real Hundred Feet Piercing Yang now, how could he not be excited?


    "Elder sister, who is that person? He''s so strong!"


    Yun Qingyao frowned and asked: "It is said that he is the son of the Prince of Pingyang. What, us Leng Er have taken a fancy to it? "


    "How is this possible!?" I only asked because I felt that his archery was really powerful. " The expression on Yun Ruoleng''s face stiffened as he replied unhappily.


    Yun Qingyao seemed to heave a sigh of relief, and changed the topic: "Those who practice magic can also do it, and might even be more powerful."


    "Then is elder sister also so amazing?" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, thinking that it would be great if he could see anything from the inside.


    Yun Qingyao slightly shook his head: "Not now. If you want to see it, I''ll show it to you when we get back."


    The light in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flickered, but Yun Qingyao did not notice it.


    A voice that was neither fast nor slow suddenly came from behind, "You are truly worthy of being the prince of Pingyang." "Truly, when one is young, he wins by a hair''s breadth, and when the time comes, he wins by a hair''s breadth."


    Yun Ruoleng turned his head to look at the man who had just spoken and immediately regretted it.


    Orchid realm! He was here too!


    "Seventh Miss Yun seems to be very dissatisfied with this one!" However, it was clear that Lan Rong was well-prepared, and did not mind Yun Ruoleng''s neglect.


    "Where?" The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth lifted slightly, but his smile did not reach his eyes. "Young Master Lan is a genius, why are you here?"


    A talented person? Lan Rong raised an eyebrow, "Seventh Miss Yun is praising me?"


    "Ha ha!" Yun Ruoleng, with a fake smile on his face, prepared to turn around, intending to continue ignoring this fellow whose skin was thicker than the city walls.


    "Seventh Miss Yun left just like that?" Lan Rong seemed to be unwilling to let her go. Seeing that she was about to leave, he tried to stop her.


    But Yun Ruoleng did not plan to care about him, and turned to leave: "Second Master Lan is overthinking it!"


    Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s swiftly leaving figure, Lan Rong retracted his scoundrelly face and said with a chuckle: "Interesting."


    "Leng Er, he ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng laughed, and shook his head at Yun Qingyao: "Big sister, don''t worry, I''m fine. It''s getting late, let''s go back. "


    "That''s not good, right?" Yun Qingyao looked around, seeing that everyone''s attention was focused on the competition, he turned his head and still wanted to advise Yun Ruoleng.


    "Elder sister ¡­" For the sake of not wanting to see the Lan Rong Realm, Yun Ruoleng tried his best to think of a way to leave the banquet. However, when he saw Yun Qingyao staring at the fighting arena, he couldn''t help but pause for a moment.


    Yun Qingyao immediately laughed, and pulled Yun Ruoleng closer to the fighting stage.


    Jun Qingshang saw all of this, he immediately picked up the three arrows and retreated to a place even further than the Prince of Pingyang. His strong and forceful arms drew the bow back, and between his index and middle fingers he held the arrow, releasing his grip.


    "Swoosh ¡­" The arrow flew forward.


    Everyone present held their breath. With three "pa pa pa" sounds, the arrow pierced the center of the target, completely sinking into the three targets.


    The martial arts arena was extremely quiet, Yun Ruoleng could not help but be startled, this man was so strong?


    "The Regent is really powerful." Yun Qingyao''s voice came out from behind Yun Ruoleng at a leisurely pace, and seemed to be rejoicing in the situation, "Fortunately I didn''t leave with you just now, or else I would have missed it."


    "Elder sister ¡­" Yun Ruoleng really wanted to ask, am I your blood sister?


    Yun Qingyao also realized that his words were wrong and laughed awkwardly.


    Sighing silently in his heart, Yun Ruoleng knew that his seemingly cold and aloof sister still had the heart of a pink girl.


    Jun Qingshang still had an icy face, as if he didn''t hear anything. He took out another three arrows and released them at the same time.


    It was the same. The three arrows were all the same. In fact, they were all the same hole. Everyone was so surprised that their jaws almost fell off.


    "¡­" Heavens, he was so powerful. When Yun Ruoleng saw this scene, he couldn''t help but panic in his heart. He thought about how he threatened Yue Yang last night.


    Yun Qingyao turned his head and was about to speak to Yun Ruoleng, but seeing her like this, he panicked, "Why does your face look so ugly, does it feel uncomfortable somewhere?"


    "No, no ¡­" Yun Ruoleng shook her head in panic, she did not want Yun Qingyao to know what she was thinking!


    "Then ¡­"


    "I''m going to take a look around. Elder sister, don''t leave this place." Yun Ruoleng quickly changed the topic and purposely said as if he didn''t have any problems.


    Seeing that, Yun Qingyao did not think too much into it, and nodded his head in agreement, then left Yun Qingyao''s side.


    By the side, after Jun Qingshang finished shooting the three arrows in her hands, she looked towards where Yun Ruoleng was standing, just in time to see her leaving in a hurry. The originally beautiful beautiful eyes slightly narrowed its eyes, threw the bow in its hands onto the body of its follower, and turned to leave with its hands behind its back.


    "He left ¡­"


    "This ¡­"


    "Is His Highness trying to test him or fighting him?"


    For a moment, the audience was in an uproar. However, the person being talked about didn''t take it seriously at all and confidently left.


    Yun Qingyao was a little disappointed in her heart, but she immediately covered her pure and clean face, unable to see her expression.


    Yun Ruoleng directly returned to the banquet table, then looked at Jun Qingshang who had returned with a gloomy face, his entire heart tensed up. Why did this person return so quickly?


    Jun Qingshang only swept an indifferent glance at Yun Ruoleng, and directly walked towards his own seat and sat down.


    Lan Yu''er, who was sitting not too far away from Yun Ruoleng, saw this look. Originally, he had no brain, but he had become smarter at this moment. He did not mock Yun Ruoleng, but stared at him angrily, as if he was fine.


    That gaze ¡­ Yun Ruoleng had a bad feeling, in short, Lan Yu''er''s abnormality was enough to raise one''s guard.


    "Peach Blossom, go and bring Third Sister back." Yun Ruoleng was a little worried that Yun Qingyao would be alone outside. Furthermore, she could tell that Yun Qingyao liked Jun Qingshang, and after Jun Qingshang had displayed his skills earlier, Yun Qingyao probably did not have much of an effort to watch other people perform!


    As expected of a sister, Yun Ruoleng had just ordered Peach Blossom to be back in a few minutes, so of course Yun Qingyao and Cui Ying followed her.


    "Third sister, come sit here." Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to speak, Yun Qingyao had already dragged him away.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, and did not say a word.

 C69

    Glancing at Yun Yueyu and Lan Yu''er who were both abnormal, Yun Ruoleng started to plan in his mind about what would happen next.


    At this moment, a group of maidservants walked in with wine and fruits, changing the items on the table for each of them.


    Because they were free, the maidservants would not pour wine and leave immediately after putting down the items. Yun Ruoleng picked up the tea and was about to drink it when his gaze met Lan Yu''er''s gaze.


    "Miss Lan, do you want to drink this tea?" Yun Ruoleng put down the teacup and smiled at Lan Yu''er. This woman was really impatient!


    "No ¡­" After Lan Yu''er was caught, she shook her head incoherently.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly, and did not touch the cup of tea again. When she was carrying the tea just now, the Smoke Water Spirit Jade actually gave off a bone-piercing cold, it must be a warning!


    But when Yun Ruoleng didn''t touch the tea, Lan Yu''er could no longer sit still, and kept glancing at Yun Ruoleng from time to time. Yun Ruoleng acted as if he did not see anything and continued to play with the fruits on the fruit plate.


    "Seventh Miss is here alone?"


    Yun Ruoleng raised his head, glanced at the man who came over to chat with him, and continued to play with the fruits in his hands: "Young Noble, is there something you need?"


    "I am the son of the tutor, Song Miao. Would Seventh Miss be willing to meet me?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s hands had completely stopped moving, and his brows were slightly knit, as if he was considering the other party''s identity. After a long while, Yun Ruoleng lifted his head and laughed sarcastically: "Even the son of the honored tutor is only so-so."


    "You ¡­"


    Song Miao''s expression changed, but before he could continue speaking, he was interrupted by Yun Ruoleng: "Although my identity is not as noble as Young Master Song, I am still not willing to be his nineteenth concubine."


    "Young Master Song seems to have forgotten that our Young Miss is extremely talented, and is publicly acknowledged to be the most talented girl in this year''s Hundred Blossom Banquet. If she wants to be a concubine, she''ll probably be a rank two official." Peach Red knew that Song Miao was not to be trifled with, so she told him about the treatment for the talented girl in the Hundred Flowers Banquet.


    Song Miao snorted coldly, "Just you wait!"


    After seeing Song Miao leave angrily, Yun Ruoleng turned around and raised her eyebrows at Peach Blossom: "Not bad!"


    "Thank you for your praise, Miss!" Peach red beaming blessing.


    "He really doesn''t shed tears until he sees the coffin!" Lan Yu''er said mockingly as she witnessed the scene.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, and did not back down at all: "We still don''t know who''s going to die or who''s going to lose!"


    Lan Yu''er''s face stiffened. She snorted and turned her face away.


    Yun Yueyu and Yun Qingyao who were talking in front turned their heads at the same time and glanced at Yun Ruoleng, then turned back and continued their conversation. Yun Ruoleng did not take it to heart, he continued to play with the fruits in his hands, and not long later he yawned: "Peach Blossom, let''s go walk outside!"


    "Yes, miss." Tao Hong reached out to help Yun Ruoleng up without suspecting anything.


    The moment Yun Ruoleng and Peach Blossom left, Yun Qingyao prepared to get up. Yun Yueyu quickly pulled Yun Qingyao along: "Seventh Sister, go relax, why are you following me? Besides, I have a servant girl with me, so I''ll be fine. "


    Yun Qingyao glanced at Yun Ruoleng''s leaving figure. Although he didn''t know why Yun Yueyu was pulling him, he still felt a bit worried.


    "We sisters haven''t had a proper chat for a long time, can''t we just keep Big Sis company?" Yun Yueyu saw that she wanted to leave and quickly found a topic to talk about, "Don''t you think that Seventh Sister has been feeling weird recently?"


    This sentence immediately attracted Yun Qingyao''s attention. Yun Qingyao frowned: "Seventh sister, what''s strange about this?"


    "Is that so?" Yun Yueyu forced a smile, "If you don''t feel at ease, then let Yu''er take a look. It''s boring to see her sitting there by herself anyway."


    "Elder sister, what do you want to tell me?" Yun Qingyao became even more suspicious.


    Yun Yueyu sighed in disappointment, "Sure! "But you also know that mother doesn''t want me to get too close to you ¡­"


    Yun Qingyao frowned, he wanted to retort, but was unable to find the words to do so. At this time, Lan Yu''er had already gotten up, and glanced at Yun Qingyao haughtily: "Cousin sister, it''s getting heavy sitting inside, I''m also going out for a walk."


    "Yes." Yun Yueyu smiled and nodded, "This is the first time my Seventh Sister is here, I''m afraid that something might happen to her while she is wandering around randomly. Watch her a little when you go out."


    Lan Yu''er nodded and said seriously, "Although I don''t like her, but for my cousin''s sake, just watch her a little!"


    Yun Qingyao wanted to speak, but Yun Yueyu spoke first: "Go."


    Lan Yu''er left without waiting for Yun Qingyao''s retort. The more Yun Qingyao thought about it, the more she felt that something was amiss. Yun Qingyao and Lan Yu''er were extremely abnormal, but Yun Yueyu acted as if nothing had happened and brought her to talk about family matters.


    But at this moment, Yun Ruoleng had not walked too far away, and the place she was standing could clearly see all of their movements.


    At first, she thought Yun Yueyu had something to discuss with him in private. But when Lan Yu''er stood up, what else did Yun Ruoleng not understand?


    Therefore, Yun Ruoleng turned around and instructed Peach Blossom: "Let''s go to the pond in front of us."


    "But Miss, the luncheon is about to begin." Tao Hong glanced behind Yun Ruoleng, "It''s better if we don''t go too far."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded and continued to walk forward, because the two of them were at the back of the fake mountain. When Lan Yu''er walked out, she saw Yun Ruoleng''s figure and immediately walked towards them.


    Yun Ruoleng bypassed the fake mountain, just in time to get away from Lan Yu''er who had chased him out.


    Lan Yu''er chased after Yun Ruoleng but did not see him. She did not look at Yun Ruoleng and shouted at the servant beside her, feeling a little irritated: "Weren''t you here just now? Search! "Hurry up and go find him!"


    The young maid had always been timid. After being yelled at by Lan Yu''er, she was so scared that she almost kneeled down: "This servant, this servant will go right now!"


    Only, Yun Ruoleng didn''t want to get too entangled with Lan Yu''er, so he directly walked out of the fake mountain path. After coming out, Yun Ruoleng was stunned, as this was actually a pond ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng walked to the side of the pond and picked the closest lotus flower with his hand and fiddled with it in a good mood.


    "The ancients already know that one should never tease when observing from afar. If big sister takes it off like this, you won''t be able to enjoy it." A tender voice angrily sounded from behind her.


    Peach Red glanced at the child standing in front of her and frowned. "The Jiangnan women picking lotus flowers is a Jiangnan scenery, so why can''t my family''s young miss pick it?"


    "Peach Blossom!" Yun Ruoleng interrupted Peach Blossom who was about to say more, then said, "Little gongzi is right, but the lotus flowers are untainted by mud, it wouldn''t hurt for me to pick one to paint."


    "You can draw?" The child tilted his head, his eyes shining as he looked at Yun Ruoleng.

 C70

    Nodding his head, Yun Ruoleng smiled at the child: "Of course, and my painting is pretty good."


    "Then I ¡­" The boy coughed lightly. "That''s what I''m looking forward to!"


    The expression on Yun Ruoleng''s face was stiff, this child had the appearance of a young adult, it was truly interesting. Sure enough, the children of ancient times all mature early.


    Before Yun Ruoleng could finish his emotional speech, the boy heard something and ran off like a wisp of smoke.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng and Peach Red looked at the little figure that disappeared into the fake mountain, and the corner of their eyes twitched at the same time.


    "Miss, shouldn''t we return as well?" Tao Hong came back to reality and looked at the lotus flower in Yun Ruoleng''s hand: "But this thing seems to attract some attention."


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng nodded, he did not say anything and went back the way he came from.


    Lan Yu''er stood at the foot of the fake mountain, and impatiently paced back and forth. Suddenly, she saw Yun Ruoleng walking out of the fake mountain, with a lotus flower still in his hands, and immediately shrieked: "Yun Ruoleng, how dare you!


    "Miss Lan, what are you doing here?" Yun Ruoleng paused, and before Lan Yu''er came back to her senses, he stuffed the flowers in his hands into her hands, and quickly put on a wronged look and said, "Miss Lan, you told me to go and pick the flowers, I got it, but why didn''t you tell me that the flowers and plants here are magic treasures? Have you forgotten our bet yesterday? "


    "What are you talking about!"


    Lan Yu''er opened her eyes wide, just as she was about to say that she was not herself, she heard Yun Ruoleng continue to speak, "I know you won''t admit, at that time, only I, you and my servant were present, so even if you said anything, no one would believe it, but you have to be careful about what''s true, you can''t just refuse to admit it just because no one knows about it!"


    "Cloud ¡­"


    "Forget it. I was the one who picked these lotuses. I''ll just plead guilty." As Yun Ruoleng spoke, he used a white handkerchief to test his tears.


    "You ¡­"


    "Miss Lan, you have to take responsibility for your work. Even the person picking the flowers dares to admit that you don''t dare!"


    "Exactly!"


    "I never thought that Miss Lan would actually use such a method to bully people who haven''t participated in the Hundred Blossom Banquet!"


    "You all ¡­" Lan Yu''er had only paid attention to her fight with Yun Ruoleng earlier and had completely forgotten where she was. As a result, the matter of Yun Ruoleng wrongly accusing her was completely heard by everyone. Lan Yu''er stomped her feet in anger. She wanted to explain, but she couldn''t.


    At this moment, Yun Ruoleng, who had been "bullied", kneeled in the middle of the hall with tears in her eyes. She placed the lotus flower in front of her and said: "Your Highness, please forgive me.


    Having said so, the banquet that was just chattering instantly quietened down as the soft sound of sobbing resounded in the great hall.


    "You''re lying!" After who knows how long, Yun Yueyu, who had been sitting motionlessly the entire time, suddenly roared. Only after she finished shouting that did she realize that she had been too impulsive, and that it was impossible for her to escape now. She could only bite the bullet and say: "Seventh Sister, I helped her find you and brought you back. "Say more ¡­"


    "Big Sis, are you trying to help my parents or not?" Yun Ruoleng used her small hands to wipe the tears off her face, "I know big sister has always looked down on me as a bastard, so she bullied me since I was young. I even secretly learned all the things I learned, but in front of Your Highness, you still have to speak up for me like this ¡­"


    "Seventh Sister, how can you say that about Big Sister?" Yun Yueyu felt wronged, her pretty eyebrows knitted together, "Sister is speaking the truth, as for bullying ¡­"


    "Eldest young mistress ¡­" Yun Ruoleng suddenly pulled up his sleeves, revealing a small part of his arm. The girl''s lotus like arm was covered with whip marks, "You''re not going to say that I hit my own arm, right? Even if that''s the case, so what if Big Sis insults you in front of everyone yesterday? "


    "You!" Yun Yueyu opened his mouth, only then did he regret that he did something too obvious yesterday.


    "What is going on?" Jun Qingshang, who was seated in the seat of honor, could no longer bear to watch any longer, and asked solemnly, "Seventh Miss Yun, explain everything clearly!"


    "Leng Er... Leng Er picked the lotuses behind the fake mountain. " Yun Ruoleng lowered her head, her face pale white, her body seemingly trembling slightly. It seemed that she was afraid of something.


    "Yes."


    Hm? Everyone looked at the Regent Lord whose words were like gold. Shouldn''t they directly execute Yun Ruoleng?


    "This King asks you, why are you picking?" Jun Qingshang''s words were like a sudden clap of thunder.


    Everyone: "..."


    They had a deep suspicion that the Regent had been switched out.


    "Before Leng Er left, he spoke to the third lady of the Lan family. She told me that there was a pond behind the fake mountain with a beautiful lotus flower inside. Yun Ruoleng paused, as he looked at Jun Qingshang with tears in his eyes, "I was really afraid that someone would cause trouble for me, so I agreed. As the heavens and earth can see, I really do not know if the flowers and plants in the palace can be touched. "


    "The third lady of the Lan family?" Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng with a smile that was not a smile.


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng calmly nodded.


    Jun Qingshang stayed on Yun Ruoleng''s body for a few seconds before looking behind her, "Lan Yu''er, do you have something to say?"


    "It''s not me, it''s clearly ¡­"


    "Then find evidence to prove your innocence." Jun Qingshang''s clear and cold voice interrupted Lan Yu''er''s words.


    Lan Yu''er pursed her lips. How was she supposed to find him? It was just a matter of one sentence. He had taken away the maid just now, and they had indeed had a chance to be together alone.


    "Yun Ruoleng, do you have evidence?" Lan Yu''er suddenly asked.


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body trembled, his teary eyes looked at Jun Qingshang: "What Leng Er said when she was with Miss Lan alone, and the words of evidence ¡­ It was Leng Er''s first time participating in the Hundred Blossom Banquet and thus, he was not aware of the matter regarding the picking of flowers. Leng Er felt that this was my fault, so Miss Lan being unwilling to admit to it was one thing, but Leng Er was willing to bear any consequences. "


    Yun Ruoleng began to cry as he talked. Although the people at the banquet were young, they all lived in deep courtyards, so what could they possibly not understand?


    This was Yun Ruoleng''s first time here, so he didn''t know why he couldn''t pick the flowers or plants on the Hundred Blossom Banquet. Everyone had a plan in mind, thus they all looked at Lan Yu''er with different expressions.


    "Slut!" What nonsense are you spouting in front of His Highness!? " Lan Yu''er also thought about Yun Ruoleng''s motive, and immediately scolded him with an ashen face, not caring about the occasion at all.


    Yun Ruoleng subconsciously shrunk his head, looking at the others. Jun Qingshang''s face darkened slightly as he said, "Slap him."

 C71

    Lan Yu''er was stunned for a few seconds, then she looked at nanny who was walking over. She became happy and raised her eyebrows at Yun Ruoleng. She spoke the words of the Regent.


    "You, what are you all doing?" Lan Yu''er''s smile had yet to be retracted in a hurry, her entire body had already been held by two strong and powerful nanny s with both hands.


    "Pah!"


    Ah!" Lan Yu''er didn''t even have time to react before a slap landed on her round face. The originally cute bun face instantly swelled up and became a real bun.


    Yun Ruoleng lowered his head, his entire body shivering as though he was frightened by the scene before him.


    "Pa Pa, Pa Pa Pa ¡­"


    The slap continued for twenty times, but Jun Qingshang finally called out for her to stop. After that, her entire body released a cold air, and announced as if she was the ruler of the world: "Lan Yu''er has openly insulted the daughter of the second stage Great Master Shu at a banquet. This king has seen that you were secretly harmed the first time you participated in a banquet, so I am punishing you by locking you up in Minister¡¯s Mansion for half a month. "


    "Thank you, Prince!"


    "Thank you ¡­" "Your Highness!" Lan Yu''er glared fiercely at Yun Ruoleng, and replied with unwillingness in her heart.


    Jun Qingshang slightly narrowed his eyes and sneered: "Lan Yu''er, are you not convinced by this duke''s decision?"


    "I ¡­"


    "Your Highness has misunderstood. Although Third Sister has a small temper, she shouldn''t be unconvinced by Your Highness'' decision." Lan Rong, who had been sitting in his seat enjoying the wine, suddenly spoke up. "Yu''er, are you still not going to apologize to the prince?"


    "Your subject''s daughter doesn''t ¡­"


    "I have an objection to your decision!" A child''s voice came from the entrance of the palace.


    Yun Ruoleng lowered his head and frowned. Did this voice sound a little familiar?


    "Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" The people who were watching the banquet stood up one after another and bowed.


    "Rise." The corners of the child''s mouth slanted towards the three people kneeling on the ground, his gaze suddenly stopped at Yun Ruoleng, "We have seen you before."


    "Since the Emperor has seen me picking flowers, he naturally has." Yun Ruoleng suddenly thought of the child by the pond. From the very beginning, he thought that the child carried a noble aura and must have an extraordinary background. He never expected that the child would be the little Emperor.


    "I already know that you were plotted against when you picked the flower. I''ll give you a chance to redeem yourself ¡­" The little emperor paused for a moment, then smiled at Jun Qingshang, "You said that you know how to draw?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, he did not know what the child wanted.


    "How about this, you draw a picture of yourself hugging a lotus and standing by the pond, if you can satisfy us, we will have royal uncle spare you."


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched, "Your majesty, Leng Er thinks that it''s better to keep him in confinement."


    "But This King feels that Your Majesty''s idea is not bad." Jun Qingshang seemed to be giving a lot of face to the little Emperor, as he turned around and instructed, "An Ying, make someone prepare a good brush and ink. This king also wants to see Miss Yun''s painting skills."


    Yun Ruoleng''s ten thousand mud horses ran about in his heart as he glared at Jun Qingshang. This man was definitely looking for trouble, or perhaps he knew about what happened just now, and was only doing it to suppress the Lan family.


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful beautiful eyes lifted up slightly, as if to say: What can you do to this king?


    Yun Ruoleng''s lungs were about to burst, but he did not dare say a single word, and could only obediently kneel on the ground, acting as though he was in a difficult situation.


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Red felt that this matter was indeed a little difficult, but her Miss''s drawing skills were so good that she definitely could do it. Tao Hong nodded at Yun Ruoleng resolutely.


    Seeing her expression, Yun Ruoleng wanted to cry, but no tears came out.


    It was very obvious that Jun Qingshang and the little emperor had purposely teamed up to scam her!


    Everyone looked at Yun Ruoleng with sympathetic gazes. Yun Qingyao truly pitied her sister, but she knew that she couldn''t beg for mercy at this time. She could only silently pray for Yun Ruoleng in her heart.


    The little emperor was holding onto Yun Ruoleng''s sleeves, he blinked at her: "Get up and stretch your limbs, you need to draw properly later on."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng stole a glance at the little emperor. This brat was also a black-hearted ghost like Jun Qingshang.


    Someone seemed to have completely forgotten that if not for Jun Qingshang''s words just now, his own head would have moved long ago.


    An Ying''s movements were quick, and before long, all the things were prepared. "Miss Yun, after you!"


    "¡­" Can''t you go? Yun Ruoleng raised his head and looked at Jun Qingshang for help. Jun Qingshang seemed to have made up his mind and looked away.


    Yun Ruoleng was so angry that her face turned red, she angrily walked to the table and started drawing on the xuan paper. Maybe it was because she was angry, but the brush strokes were so heavy that by the time she noticed one painting, they were almost done.


    Yun Ruoleng turned and drew a little person beside him with the brush. He was short and short, with a smile on his face, he looked naive and cute.


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng withdrew his brush and bravely clapped his hands. He had completely forgotten that he should pretend to be pitiful.


    The little emperor didn''t even bother about Yun Ruoleng as he excitedly ran to Yun Ruoleng''s side. "Yun Ruoleng! Is This Emperor that childish? Redraw! "


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng looked at the little boy beside him speechlessly. He was about eight or nine years old, but he looked completely innocent and cute. Yes, indeed.


    Yun Ruoleng stretched out his hands to knead the painting into a ball before starting to draw again. He then smiled merrily at the picky little emperors, "This time, it''s worth it, right?"


    This time, the little emperor really didn''t know what to say. He was completely shocked and said incoherently, "You, last time ¡­ And the previous Guanyin Seat Lotus Painting was written as a joke? "


    Yun Ruoleng smiled but did not speak, he handed the painting over to the little emperor: "I promise."


    "Of course!" The little emperor glared at Yun Ruoleng, as if she was angry at her for not trusting him.


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng nodded and turned back to the banquet.


    The little emperor hugged the painting blankly for a few seconds before realizing that he was being ignored?


    Her originally delicate face instantly darkened. She had wanted to find Yun Ruoleng to argue, but before she could even take a step forward, she heard a deep voice sound out behind her: "Your Majesty should return to his seat. The banquet is about to start, Your Highness is still waiting for your majesty."


    The little emperor turned his head and looked at An Ying who was behind with eyes that could kill, holding the drawing tighter, he snorted coldly and walked towards the head of the seats.


    An Ying rubbed his nose, he had been remembered by the Little Emperor as a hateful person! It seemed like it would be best to not enter the palace in the future.


    "Today, I received a good painting. I reluctantly let everyone admire it." The little emperor paused for a moment before reverting back to his slovenly attitude, "This can be considered as a form of entertainment for the banquet."


    "Thank you, your majesty." The little emperor was willing to take out the painting for everyone to see, which made everyone curious about what kind of painting it was.

 C72

    At first, they thought that the little emperor was deliberately protecting Yun Ruoleng. But at this moment, everyone was really curious about this painting.


    Jun Qingshang coldly swept a glance at the little emperor and did not say a word, but only a glance. The little emperor''s smile stiffened slightly, and he asked: "Does royal uncle not think this is appropriate?"


    "Since the Emperor has already decided, let''s do it this way." Jun Qingshang held the wine cup in his hand and took a light sip, his gaze once again landing on the meat and wine in front of him.


    Only then did the little emperor heave a sigh of relief. He ordered the eunuchs beside him to show the paintings to the young masters and ladies of the aristocratic families.


    There were many scholars and scholars present. After seeing the painting, everyone felt that it was a bit familiar, but they didn''t know where it was familiar. When the painting came to Luo Yifan''s side, he suddenly asked, "Miss Yun, do you know Painter Saint Leng Yun?"


    "I don''t know him." Yun Ruoleng''s hand that was holding the teacup trembled, "Why does Young Master think that way?"


    "This painting''s style is ninety percent similar to Leng Yun''s. If I don''t recognize it, then ¡­" Luo Yifan paused for a moment, his lips curling into an understanding smile. "Seventh Miss Yun has really hidden his strength well!"


    His words jolted the person in his dreams, while the scholars looked at Yun Ruoleng in shock.


    "Everyone knew that Leng Yun was able to create a painting that looked exactly like a direct descendant, but they never expected Leng Yun to be such a lively little girl."


    "Yeah."


    "What''s more unexpected is that Leng Yun is actually the most unfavored Seventh Miss of the Residence of Yun."


    "Actually, I think that the Yun Family''s three misses are the prettiest in Seventh Miss. Although Yun Yueyu is beautiful, compared to this Yun Ruoleng, she''s as beautiful as the heavens and the earth."


    "I wonder who said that Yun Yueyu is the number one beauty in the world. Look at the other two young misses of the Yun Family."


    "The pearl is covered in dust, and Yun Yueyu has always been a direct descendant."


    Everyone was discussing, the faces of the young miss who looked down upon Yun Ruoleng in the past, and who was prepared to see Yun Ruoleng as a joke, were not looking too good.


    The little emperor had been elated just now, but after hearing these words, he instantly became angry and asked Jun Qingshang in a low voice, "royal uncle, did we do something bad?"


    "You care about her?" Jun Qingshang put down the cup in his hand, and the beautiful eyes slightly squinted, "In the past, His Majesty wasn''t like this."


    "Zhen ¡­ Zhen really likes her. She looks very much like my mufei." As the little emperor spoke, his face slightly blushed as he shyly said.


    Jun Qingshang shook his head, warning: "But she isn''t. You can protect her, but you can''t think of anything related to her. You have to understand that right now, many vassal lords are watching your every word and action, and cannot be willful. "


    "Got it." The little emperor drooped his head and stared at the fruit wine in front of him in disappointment.


    Jun Qingshang only glanced at the little Emperor, but did not say anything as he continued to taste the wine.


    "Is little sister okay?" Yun Qingyao pulled Yun Ruoleng along, and after looking up and down, he heaved a sigh of relief, and asked anxiously: "What exactly happened?"


    "Shh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng quickly covered Yun Qingyao''s mouth and said anxiously, "Be quiet."


    "You have to explain yourself today!" Yun Qingyao''s voice was a lot softer, but there was a hint of anger on his ice-cold face, which made him look really fierce.


    Yun Ruoleng sighed: "Elder sister, Yun Yueyu was deliberately trying to find you to talk, didn''t you see? They want to hurt me. "


    Yun Qingyao frowned, and did not say a word. She wasn''t stupid, and she could tell.


    "Elder sister, please don''t be angry with me. They are using underhanded methods to trick me, so I can only use my teeth in return." Yun Ruoleng tugged on Yun Qingyao''s clothes, and said softly.


    "I''m not angry with that!" Yun Qingyao slapped Yun Ruoleng''s claws away, and reprimanded him, "Don''t take the risk anymore, if not for Your Highness deliberately letting you go today, do you think you would still be alive?"


    "What can''t?" Yun Ruoleng smiled mysteriously. "The emperor watched as I plucked them and didn''t say anything."


    "¡­" Yun Qingyao stared at Yun Ruoleng, wanting to say something, but didn''t know what to say. The emperor watched as she plucked the flower without saying a word, proving that the emperor had tacitly accepted her.


    "Seventh Miss Yun, this one ¡­"


    "Seventh Miss Yun, if you have time, come visit Yao Manor often." A green clothed lady blocked the white clothed man who was walking over with a cup of wine and smiled amiably at Yun Ruoleng.


    "This is Yao Mengdie, the eldest daughter of the Yao family. She is the third eldest son of the Yao family." Yun Qingyao slightly nodded towards Yao Mengdie and introduced her, "My Seventh Sister should make more friends. Miss Yao is an outstanding person, coupled with Miss Yao''s gentle personality, how could you two make friends?"


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at Yao Meng Die, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Let me toast you. If you want to befriend me, have a drink, if ¡­"


    "Naturally." Yao Meng Die unceremoniously picked up the wine cup on the table and clinked it with Yun Ruoleng''s, before raising her head and drinking. It was done in one go without the slightest hesitation.


    A cold light flashed in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, and was quickly covered by his sleeves.


    "If you drink it, we''ll be good friends. From now on, come often to the Yao Manor to play." After saying that, Yao Mengdie giggled and said that she had to go back in advance.


    As Yun Ruoleng watched her leave, he couldn''t help but sneer in his heart. This woman was probably not as simple as she seemed.


    After seeing the other party leave, Yun Qingyao heaved a sigh of relief, and softly instructed him: "Stay away from her in the future. Even though she is truly gentle and cute, I feel that her performance is unreal."


    "I can see it." Yun Ruoleng took a sip of the fruit wine, "A young miss, why would she come here to befriend a young lady like me?


    "It''s good that you understand." Yun Qingyao nodded his head in gratitude. His sister was smarter and more cautious than he had expected.


    When the banquet came to an end, it was already near evening. Yun Qingyao and Yun Ruoleng came out of the palace, looked at the setting sun, and smiled at each other.


    "Elder sister, don''t forget to demonstrate Hundred Feet Piercing Sun to me tonight."


    Yun Qingyao was slightly stunned, then said with a chuckle: "Do you still remember?"


    "Of course. But elder sister, you didn''t forget, right? " The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth curled up slightly.


    Yun Qingyao scratched her head in embarrassment. Because of Yun Ruoleng''s matter, she had forgotten about it, but she couldn''t let her sister feel like she was ignoring her. She said: "I just wanted to think that it was already too late tonight."


    "Then tomorrow." Yun Ruoleng shook Yun Qingyao like a spoiled child, "Good sister, how about tomorrow night? I''ll go out to your yard. "


    "Yes." Yun Qingyao thought about it, and felt that he and First Madam had already fallen out. Yun Ruoleng did not need to use estrangement to protect them anymore.


    Yun Ruoleng was very happy that he received the answer he wanted. In order to prevent Yun Qingyao from reneging on his words, Yun Ruoleng even asked him a question, "I''ll be back for dinner tomorrow night, please don''t welcome me, Big Sister."

 C73

    Yun Ruoleng and Yun Qingyao laughed as they boarded the carriage. Just as they left, Jun Qingshang stood at the entrance of the palace, looking deeply into the distance, he said: "You send people to follow them, the Lan family is suffering from grievances, and will not let this matter rest."


    "But Master, you alone ¡­"


    "I will return to the palace with the Emperor. After they enter the Minister¡¯s Mansion, we will wait at the entrance of the palace."


    "Yes sir!" Only then did An Ying leave in relief.


    Jun Qingshang stood at the door and looked at the small black dot.


    "royal uncle, wait for me!" The little emperor was not tall, his two short legs moved very quickly, he did not hold back his strength for a moment and directly threw himself into Jun Qingshang''s embrace.


    "It''s getting late. You should return to the palace to rest." The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth hooked up into a smile, and he pulled the little Emperor out from his chest and placed him at the side. He then ordered the palace maid behind him in a cold voice, "Return to the palace!"


    "Get up the palanquin and return to the palace!" The eunuch who followed the little emperor shouted.


    Following that, a group of guards and a bright yellow dragon palanquin appeared in front of everyone. The little emperor looked at Jun Qingshang awkwardly and reluctantly. Jun Qingshang only gave him a bland glance: "This king also wants to enter the palace to see your royal grandmother."


    The little Emperor''s eyes lit up when he heard this.


    The first thing Jun Qingshang did after sending the little Emperor back to the palace was to go to the Titian Palace. The little emperor''s tail naturally followed along.


    "Royal Grandmother, Xuan''er has taken a fancy to an elder sister. She is very beautiful, and she even looks similar to mufei. Xuan''er thought, if she were to become my imperial aunt, would I be able to see her more often? "


    "Which girl?" The empress dowager wasn''t someone who could be easily fooled. Her first reaction upon hearing this was: ''A little girl that looks like the princess consort, is this some sort of scheme or some other scheme?''


    ", Yun Ruoleng." As soon as the little emperor finished speaking, he saw that the empress dowager''s expression had turned sour. The clever child quickly said, "In this year''s Hundred Blossom Banquet, the female lead the group. She''s now the most beautiful woman in the world and the most talented girl in the capital.


    After the little emperor had finished speaking, he ran to the painting of the lotus in the hall and stood there. He said to the empress dowager, "She was the one who painted this painting. Royal Grandmother, you said that such a peerless beauty, such a talented person, cannot be allowed to fall into other people''s hands, right? "


    "Xin''er, is he really talking about the Yun Family''s seventh daughter, Yun Ruoleng?" The empress dowager looked at Jun Qingshang who was sitting at the side with disbelief. "Why is it different from the rumors?"


    "He is just someone who has been snatched away by the direct daughter. Queen Mother need not take him seriously." Jun Qingshang''s single sentence revealed the atmosphere of the entire Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    The empress dowager had originally been dissatisfied with Yun Yueyu''s pretentiousness, but after hearing Jun Qingshang''s explanation, her face became even more unsightly. "No matter who you marry, you must not take away that little girl Yun Yueyu.


    "Mother, don''t worry."


    "Royal Grandmother." The little emperor was at a loss. "The Yun family''s eldest daughter is so ugly, why would the royal uncle take a liking to her? If Xuan`er had to say, my royal grandmother immediately bestowed an order to the Seventh Miss to marry her and the royal uncle. "


    "Nonsense!" The empress dowager glared at the little emperor unhappily. "How could your royal uncle''s marriage be so casual? Alright, if your royal uncle likes it, he''ll say it himself. "


    "But ¡­"


    "Do you really like her that much, child?" She had also planted a seed of doubt in her heart, making her feel that Yun Ruoleng must have had a motive in finding a way to get close to the little emperor.


    The little emperor nodded and looked expectantly at the empress dowager.


    The empress dowager''s well-maintained face immediately sunk. "Wanying, tomorrow, go bring the Yun Minister¡¯s Mansion and Seventh Miss Yun Ruoleng into the palace."


    Jun Qingshang said as he was about to answer, "Imperial Palace is not a place that just anyone can enter, Mother."


    "This Dowager ¡­"


    "Royal Grandmother, don''t be angry. Xuan''er knows her wrongs and shouldn''t have approached her so intimately just by looking at her face." Seeing that the empress dowager couldn''t move, the little emperor was afraid that he would implicate Yun Ruoleng and he quickly apologized.


    Jun Qingshang seemed to be very satisfied with this result, and warned, "The emperor isn''t young anymore, and is almost ten years old at the start of the year. Your words and actions represent the entire royal family. Your words may affect one''s life and death, so you must think twice before acting! "


    "Yes, Xuan''er understands." Seeing his sincere attitude, Jun Qingshang did not say anything and waved his hand. "Bring the emperor back to the palace to rest."


    The little emperor lowered his head and reluctantly was brought away by a young eunuch.


    "Xin''er ¡­"


    "Imperial Mother, your son thinks that all of the Yun Family''s daughters are not bad, but what the Emperor said is not wrong. As the direct daughter of the Queen, Yun Yueyu had used her private punishment on Little Sister Shu out of jealousy. This son will definitely not marry someone like that."


    "As for Yun Qingyao, with the look of having no desires, this son has married, and is not a Buddha." Jun Qingshang paused, "If you want me to marry, I will only marry Yun Ruoleng, because I do not like to be wronged."


    "The Queen Mother knows what you are talking about." The empress dowager sighed. "Forget it, let''s have the Yun family''s Seventh Miss enter the palace for This Dowager to see sometime."


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang nodded, "It''s late now, so I''ll be going back first. Mother will rest early."


    "Alright, you can go back first!" Seeing that Jun Qingshang was unwilling to continue this topic, the Empress Dowager could only give up.


    After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, he turned around and left the Tzu Ning Palace. However, Jun Qingshang did not leave the palace immediately.


    "royal uncle, you''re finally here, Xuan''er ¡­"


    "Has the emperor completely forgotten what the royal uncle said?" Jun Qingshang''s face sunk. Without waiting for the little emperor to finish speaking, he said coldly, "Who told you to make Yun Ruoleng my wife?"


    "Is ¡­ Is there a need to be taught or taught?" The little emperor shrunk his neck, "Xuan''er was able to tell that the royal uncle treated Seventh Miss Yun differently with one glance."


    Was it that obvious? Jun Qingshang was startled, then glanced at the little Emperor: "Don''t speak nonsense in the future."


    The little emperor also knew that he had almost harmed Yun Ruoleng because of his words, so he did not retort, "Then will royal uncle accompany Xuan''er tonight?"


    "No need, the emperor should learn to handle things himself." After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, he turned around and left. He did not even give the little Emperor a chance to stay.


    The little emperor lowered his head in disappointment. However, the expression on his head didn''t contain the slightest bit of unhappiness. On the contrary, he seemed exceptionally satisfied.


    Jun Qingshang came out of the palace, and after meeting up with the An Ying who was already waiting at the entrance, he left after exchanging a few words, and flew towards Yun Ruoleng''s courtyard alone.

 C74

    Early morning the next day, a ray of sunlight shone onto the face of the sleeping Yun Ruoleng. The incredibly exquisite face slightly creased. She turned her body in an uncomfortable manner. Suddenly ¡­


    "Why are you in my bed?" Yun Ruoleng opened his eyes in shock, and got up. When he saw the person on the bed, he was shocked, but then he kicked the person and glared at him.


    Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly moved, as if she was displeased to be disturbed. She reached out her hands, grabbed the small hands that were about to fall into disarray, and with a tug, Yun Ruoleng immediately threw himself into Jun Qingshang''s embrace with an unstable center of gravity.


    "Woman, don''t play with fire."


    "Jun! "Qing ¡­"


    "This King is here." Jun Qingshang''s finger, which was distinct from bones, lightly brushed past Yun Ruoleng''s shoulder, and the corner of his mouth rose charmingly.


    "Men and women are prepared for it!" Your Highness, please have some self-respect! " Yun Ruoleng slapped Jun Qingshang''s chest, staring at him angrily.


    "This King does not know." With regards to Yun Ruoleng''s cat-like strength, Jun Qingshang did not care at all. His hands did not stop moving, and instead became more and more presumptuous.


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body stiffened. She could clearly feel the large hand at her waist moving up bit by bit. Her small face, which was originally red from sleep, instantly turned even redder. Let go of me! "


    "Is Miss up yet?" At this moment, Peach Blossom who was outside heard a sound and was about to push open the door and enter.


    Yun Ruoleng panicked and immediately stopped her: "I still want to sleep for a while, go and busy yourself with other things first!"


    Peach Blossom''s hand paused slightly as she pushed open the door and left with a "En".


    Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief, extended his hand and pushed Jun Qingshang away: "No matter when you came, what are you doing, get up right now! Don''t think I won''t dare to hit you just because you''re the Regent! "


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows. He did not care about Yun Ruoleng''s threat at all as he used his long legs to roll over and press Yun Ruoleng down on the bed. Her actions were so fast that Yun Ruoleng did not even have time to react. When she managed to react, she panicked and used her hand to push at Jun Qingshang''s chest forcefully. If word of this spreads, no one will be afraid of being laughed at! "


    "Did This King say what I wanted to do to you?" Jun Qingshang only wanted to see how this wild cat looked like, but he didn''t think that this woman would think so much.


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng blushed so hard that blood dripped to the ground, but she did not retreat at all, "If someone saw you like this ¡­"


    "You want This King to bear witness to this matter, right?" Jun Qingshang began to untie Yun Ruoleng''s clothes with his well-defined fingers.


    Yun Ruoleng was so shocked that he anxiously covered his clothes, and stared at the peerless beauty in front of him angrily: "No! Get the hell out of here! "


    "This King can only roll on the bed..."


    "You''re shameless!"


    "There are even more shameless ones." After saying that, Jun Qingshang''s movements sped up. With one hand, he held the buckle of Yun Ruoleng''s clothes and put her on his head, while with the other hand, he began to take off Yun Ruoleng''s clothes. Yun Ruoleng was anxious, he raised his leg and was ready to attack Jun Qingshang, but the other party was already prepared, and with his long legs, he easily suppressed them.


    Yun Ruoleng could only release his hand that was pressed against Jun Qingshang''s chest. He covered his own chest, in order to prevent the spring air to leak out.


    Seeing this, the corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly. He was so anxious that his eyes had turned red, as if he was about to cry.


    Jun Qingshang was slightly stunned, then subconsciously reached out his hand to brush the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s eyes: "You can only be mine."


    "What?" The sudden words caused Yun Ruoleng to be slightly stunned. Before she could even regain her senses, her lips were covered by an overbearing kiss.


    "Ugh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng opened his eyes wide, and looked at the peerless beauty in front of him with an expression of disbelief.


    Jun Qingshang seemed to be unhappy with her absent-mindedness. He covered her eyes and bit her lips in a punitive manner.


    "Ugh!" Yun Ruoleng regained his senses, his heart was immediately enraged, he had lived for over twenty years, but was actually forcefully kissed by someone!


    And this was the first kiss of this life!


    It was gone just like that.


    Yun Ruoleng wanted to clench her teeth to stop someone''s overbearing attack, but she was still a step too slow.


    In a place where Yun Ruoleng couldn''t see, the corner of Jun Qingshang''s lips slightly rose as a smile of satisfaction flashed across his face.


    Yun Ruoleng was so angry that he wanted to bite Jun Qingshang. It was as if Jun Qingshang knew how to read the mind, and he ended the kiss without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to swallow.


    "Remember, you are my woman. You have my seal sealed today." With that, she gave Yun Ruoleng a kiss on his lips and got off the bed.


    Yun Ruoleng was so angry that his face turned green, and just as he woke up and cursed a few times, he heard hurried footsteps at the door.


    Jun Qingshang leisurely wore the cloak over his body, and then, when he was about to tie the belt, he saw Yun Ruoleng get up from the bed and help him put the robe on, and he quickly urged: "Go! "Hurry up and leave!"


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng, a teasing smile hanging on his lips, "Why do I have to leave?"


    "You ¡­"


    Before Yun Ruoleng could speak, he heard the footsteps outside the door stop, and then a knock on the door: "Young miss, is someone from First Madam coming?"


    "Got it." Yun Ruoleng replied, "Go tell them that you''re going to visit Father this morning, so you won''t be going to the Hibiscus Courtyard."


    "Yes." Peach Blossom was then sent away by Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng turned around and stared at the man who unhurriedly buttoned his belt, and he became extremely angry: "Jun Qingshang, what do you mean by this? You don''t feel well about not causing my death, do you? "


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, "You''re getting more and more presumptuous! This King even dares to call out his name? "


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng shrunk his neck, how could he have forgotten about this?


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was feeling upset, Jun Qingshang suddenly pulled her into his embrace. Without waiting for her to cry out in shock, he suddenly kissed her.


    This time, Yun Ruoleng was kissed until he was dizzy and he stood blankly in his original position. He did not even know when Jun Qingshang left.


    "Miss ¡­ Miss?" Tao Hong stood behind Yun Ruoleng and called out to her a few times, but she did not react at all.


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng was shocked by Peach Blossom''s voice, she immediately regained her senses and looked at Peach Blossom suspiciously, "What is it?"


    "Miss''s mouth ¡­"


    "Did you bite the mosquito?" Yun Ruoleng quickly interrupted Peach Blossom''s words, "I didn''t get a good night''s sleep last night, there was a mosquito buzzing by your ear all the time, you can smoke some incense later to extinguish it."


    "Oh." The little girl was simple and cute, she would believe whatever Yun Ruoleng said, there was no doubt about it.


    "Get dressed." Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief after changing the topic, but when she recalled the words that Jun Qingshang had said when he left just now, her small face couldn''t help but turn red.


    "Is Miss very hot?" Peach Red handed the towel to Yun Ruoleng. Seeing her red face, she could not help but ask.


    "Ha..." Yun Ruoleng coughed lightly, her small hands fanned: "It''s indeed a little hot."

 C75

    "Then let me go get some ice cubes."


    After Peach Blossom finished speaking and was about to go out, Yun Ruoleng quickly grabbed her and said, "No need, after you''ve finished dressing me, go to father''s place. There''s no need to go through all that trouble."


    "Then ¡­"


    "It''s getting late, hurry up and get dressed up!" Yun Ruoleng urged, "If we go late, father won''t be happy."


    "Yes." Peach Blossom also no longer bothered whether Yun Ruoleng was cold or hot. Her delicate fingers continuously weaved through Yun Ruoleng''s hair, and a beautiful flying bun was quickly formed.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: "Let''s go!"


    Peach Blossom casually fiddled with the items on the table for a bit before quickly following.


    Yun Shicheng brought the peach blossoms to Yun Shicheng''s study room. Yun Shicheng had wanted to look for Yun Ruoleng for a long time, but when he saw her, he quickly smiled and said with a face full of smiles, "Leng Er, come quickly and sit.


    "Isn''t it the father who is looking for the daughter?" Yun Ruoleng did not forget that last night, when he came back so late, Yun Shicheng still had to send people over to look for him. Seeing that Yun Shicheng pretended ignorance, he immediately laughed.


    The smile on Yun Shicheng''s face froze slightly. He had originally wanted to reveal a plan that he had been pretending to be ignorant of, but now, he was slightly embarrassed. "Girl, you actually used the name of ''Leng Yun'' to sell paintings, but now, everyone in the capital knows that a cold cloud has appeared in my Yun Palace."


    "Shouldn''t father be proud?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, "Daughter is giving father face, could it be that father is not happy?"


    "¡­" Yun Shicheng felt even more embarrassed after his thoughts were exposed, "I only wanted to say that you have to keep a low profile from now on. Such a high profile would cause unnecessary trouble. Besides, you won''t even discuss such a big matter with me and your mother. "


    "I wonder what big thing my daughter has done?" The smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face became colder and colder. This Yun Shicheng was truly a snob, now that he was of use to him, he had become a good father! If it was the previous Yun Ruoleng, he would probably really be tricked by this "father-like" Yun Shicheng.


    "You secretly ran out of the manor? Is that not a big matter?"


    "So the father means that the daughter should sit at home and be a lady?" Yun Ruoleng mocked, "My Yun Palace Seventh Miss''s life in the backyard is not as good as a servant''s. If I don''t run out, could it be that I''m preparing to starve to death in the backyard?"


    "You!" Yun Shicheng''s good mood could not hold up any longer, and the good mood of the past few days had gradually started to crumble.


    "Father thinks your daughter''s words are empty?" Yun Ruoleng''s expression slightly sank. If Yun Shicheng dared to say a single word, she would definitely fall out with him today.


    Yun Shicheng''s face suddenly darkened, "In the past, First Madam was the one who did the wrong thing, and now she has been punished. Leng Er, don''t tell me you''re blaming Father for neglecting you?"


    Speaking of which, Yun Shicheng was a little uneasy. Amongst his three daughters, the one in front of him was the one that was the most difficult to control.


    Looking at Yun Shicheng''s "benevolent" smile, Yun Ruoleng smiled: "Father is right, it''s just that daughter hopes that in the future, father will treat us three as equals." After saying that, he stood up and left the study without looking back.


    "Miss, isn''t it bad for you to threaten the old master like this?" Peach Red turned her head and looked at Yun Shicheng who was talking to the butler, and frowned.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered: "Back then, he was able to ignore me because I had no power or power. Even if he was given ten guts, he wouldn''t dare to do anything to me. "


    "Why?" Peach Blossom asked in confusion.


    Yun Ruoleng lightly glanced at Peach Blossom: "There are some things that I don''t have to be true, and what I hear isn''t necessarily true. You have to carefully look at everything, do you understand what I''m saying?"


    Peach Blink blinked his eyes and looked at Yun Ruoleng in a daze.


    Yun Ruoleng knew that it would be hard to understand so he did not make things difficult for Peach Blossom, and only smiled at her: "There are some things that will not be fun if you expose them, don''t think too much right now, you just need to remember what I said today, we will go to the Jade Bamboo Institution now."


    "Oh." Peach Red was still very suspicious, but she was so smart that she didn''t continue asking.


    At this moment, within the Regent¡¯s Mansion, a certain duke who had escaped from the Imperial Academy was currently sitting in his study room reading a book, and the book in his hands had not even turned a single page since he had returned.


    In front of him knelt a black clothed man, as though he was saying something, but Jun Qingshang had already left.


    "My King, my King ¡­" The black clothed man who was kneeling on the ground suddenly heard a chuckle. He was so scared that his entire body trembled, almost losing his soul. His prince must have gone berserk! The more the black-clothed man looked at her, the more terrified he became.


    "You may leave." Jun Qingshang returned to his senses and ordered expressionlessly. He was not embarrassed at all.


    "Yes." It was too frightening. He truly wanted to leave this place as soon as possible in order to avoid being caught and silenced by the prince.


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly as he looked in the direction of the black clothed man''s instantaneous disappearance. Even he himself didn''t know what had happened to him today, but he was actually sitting, standing, lying down.


    Yun Ruoleng brought Peach Blossom to Yun Qingyao''s Jade Bamboo Garden and just happened to see Yun Qingyao play chess. Yun Ruoleng, who was not really a good chess player, was immediately filled with interest: "How about Big Sis and I play together?"


    Yun Qingyao''s hand that was holding onto the chess piece stopped, he raised his head and laughed and asked: "You came so early?"


    "Third sister, I was afraid that you would forget too many things." Yun Ruoleng laughed and joked, a piece of cloth quickly fell from his hand.


    Yun Qingyao raised his eyebrows, and laughed helplessly: "Alright, after this round, I will demonstrate it to you. Later on, do not pretend that I did not demonstrate it."


    Yun Ruoleng snorted: "I''m not that kind of person! "Oh right, I just went to my father''s place."


    Yun Qingyao was not surprised, he only nodded his head and listened to what Yun Ruoleng said.


    "You guessed right." Yun Ruoleng rubbed the chess piece, thought for a moment, and said worriedly, "He wants to use me to recruit some powerful people, but it''s a pity that I''m not in his control. I''m afraid that he might have ideas on you."


    "Don''t worry about me. In another half a month, there will be an election for a Virgin Mary in the capital. This time, I''m going to be the one with the purest Shaman Power. As long as I get that position, even the Emperor can''t do anything to me." The chess piece on Yun Qingyao''s finger answered and dropped, looking as if he was determined to win.


    "The Goddess of Light is only changed once every ten years. In order to keep the Heavenly Awakening from failing, the glory one gets is naturally high, but big sister, one cannot withstand the cold. You have to be careful of how many people want that position." Yun Ruoleng''s hand that was holding the chess piece trembled, her heart suddenly tensed up, as though something bad was about to happen.


    "With my current abilities, how could anything happen to me?" Yun Qingyao gently smiled at Yun Ruoleng.

 C76

    "When big sister becomes the Holy Mother, none of them will dare to bully you anymore. When that time comes, you can do whatever you want to do with all your heart. Big Sis will always support you from your side. " Yun Qingyao laughed.


    Yun Ruoleng put down the chess piece in his hand, lowered his head and said unwillingly: "En, I lost."


    "It was a mess anyway. I didn''t expect you to take so many steps." Yun Qingyao gave Cui Ying a look. Cui Ying understood and quickly put away the chess board, while he brought Yun Ruoleng to the backyard.


    The backyard was truly a quiet and secluded place. The dense green bamboo shaded the sunlight, revealing a small path in the middle. The sunlight shone through the bamboo leaves onto the ground, making it seem as if he had stepped into a fairyland.


    "Sister really knows how to enjoy!" Yun Ruoleng liked this place a lot, and when he thought about the space behind his house where he grew vegetables, he suddenly felt that it was really shabby there!


    Yun Qingyao smiled and said nothing. The two of them didn''t walk for long before they discovered a small bamboo house.


    Yun Qingyao stood in front of the door of the bamboo house, and turned his head to smile at Yun Ruoleng: "This courtyard has the largest Minister¡¯s Mansion, when we were dividing the courtyard, First Madam had wanted to stay here. As for why she gave me this courtyard, I don''t know. "


    "She must have some sort of plan, or the words'' birthdate ''didn''t agree with you, so she wanted to use this excuse to kill you." Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, "Oh right, will Yun Yueyu go to the Holy Mother this time?"


    Yun Qingyao nodded his head: "Although the purity of her magic power is not as good as mine, but her eight words are good. In the past, a Daoist said that she was born with a phoenix life."


    "You actually believe in the Taoist invited by the First Madam?" Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at Yun Qingyao in annoyance.


    "Indeed." Yun Qingyao nodded and pushed open the small bamboo house, walking in. Yun Ruoleng stood at the door stunned for a moment, inside the bamboo house, there was only a table and a bed, it looked simple and simple.


    "I sometimes cultivate here, so I prepared a set of tools." Yun Qingyao passed the teapot to Cui Ying and said with a smile, "This place is quiet, and the earth spirit energy at this location is very dense."


    Yun Qingyao didn''t say it, but Yun Ruoleng could clearly feel that the spirit energy here was plentiful. It was indeed a good place to cultivate. But...


    "Does Yun Yueyu not know that there is such a dense amount of spirit energy in this place?"


    "I know!" Yun Qingyao laughed lightly, "So what if she knows? This is already my place, and the Shaman Energy in her body doesn''t match with the one here. She can''t absorb it, even if she wanted to!"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head: "The spiritual energy here comes from the heaven and earth, it is dense and pure, and if a person who does not have pure magic power were to absorb it, it would cause the person to reveal themselves."


    "So Yun Yueyu had to pick a fight with him because of this in the past." Yun Qingyao pointed to an empty land not far from the door: "That place is spacious, let''s go there."


    Yun Ruoleng responded as he quickened his pace to keep up with Yun Qingyao''s. With a slight movement of Yun Qingyao''s finger, a ray of yellow light appeared on his fingertip, and then, he drew a bow in the air, and a yellow arrow appeared in Yun Qingyao''s hand.


    "Elder sister, are you using magic power?" Yun Ruoleng saw this scene, and his eyes stared straight.


    "Yes." Yun Qingyao''s expression did not show any joy, "But this can only last for half an incense''s time."


    "Half an incense stick of time!" Yun Ruoleng felt her tongue trembling. When she was reading the book, she had also seen the way to use Shaman Energy. The book said that if you want things to last for a long time in the world, then the Shaman Energy that you need would be thicker.


    To someone like Yun Ruoleng who was still unable to use his Shaman Energy, half an incense''s time was simply a myth!


    "Why are you so shocked?" Yun Qingyao saw that his sister was almost drooling, and laughed, "Take it!"


    Yun Ruoleng held onto the yellow bow, the corners of his mouth split in a smile, feeling extremely satisfied: "Elder sister is really amazing, if I were to choose the Holy Mother this time, I would definitely be chosen according to my elder sister''s capabilities."


    "You''re thinking too much." Yun Qingyao felt that the pressure on him was still immense, "Although I can release the pressure, there are still people who have more pure magic power than me."


    "Then we''re not afraid, so what if it''s purer? She can''t! " In fact, Yun Ruoleng didn''t think that there was anyone that was purer than Yun Qingyao, and of course, someone with a purity like hers, there wouldn''t even be a single person.


    "Sister, let''s try to use the power of the Shaman Power to pierce through the Yang tree first!" Yun Ruoleng finished reading and handed the bow over to Yun Qingyao, he was filled with anticipation.


    After receiving the bow, Yun Qingyao lightly pulled the bowstring. With a slight movement of his finger, a ray of yellow light quickly formed into an arrow on the bowstring. After releasing his finger, the arrow instantly left the bowstring and flew a hundred steps away.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng was shocked, she never thought that Yun Qingyao''s use of his Shaman Energy was already at the acme of perfection.


    Looking at Yun Qingyao''s pale face, he guessed that it was caused by the power of the Divine Magi. Yun Ruoleng reached out to support Yun Qingyao, and grasped her hand painfully: "It''s me who is too willful."


    Yun Qingyao held Yun Ruoleng''s hand and laughed: "I''m fine, it''s just that I''m a bit weak after using my power, don''t take it to heart."


    Yun Ruoleng''s emotions were extremely complicated. Looking at Yun Qingyao''s expression, she was at a loss of what to do, as she did not know whether or not she should tell him that she was also a witch. Yun Qingyao didn''t know about Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts. He thought that she was blaming herself for her capriciousness and hurriedly consoled her, "Leng Er, you don''t need to think too much into it. Besides, it''s not your fault that I turned out like this."


    "Third sister ¡­" The more Yun Qingyao was like this, the more Yun Ruoleng didn''t know what to do.


    "Miss, let''s help Third Miss back to the bamboo house for a while!" Peach Blossom couldn''t help but ask when she saw the worried expression on her young miss.


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng nodded, and supported Yun Qingyao, walking back, she decided not to reveal her situation, after all, the closer they were, the easier it was for them to harm others.


    Even if Yun Qingyao didn''t harm him, there was also the possibility of contradicting him because he was a witch.


    "Leng Er, yesterday, His Highness the Regent and the Little Emperor helped you and you haven''t went to express your gratitude yet." Yun Qingyao suddenly said, "It''s fine with the Emperor, but you have to go to the Regent Lord."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned. As she thought about the series of events that happened this morning, Yun Ruoleng''s little face immediately blushed, "I don''t want to go!"


    Yun Qingyao looked at Yun Ruoleng who had his head bowed in puzzlement: "If we were to consider yesterday''s matter as a death sentence, if not for Your Highness letting us off this time, you might really be imprisoned. No, you have to go."


    Yun Qingyao did not notice that Yun Ruoleng''s cheeks had turned red, so his tone became a little heavier, "I don''t know what this is about, but the matter of gratitude must not be flippant! I''ll have Cui Ying accompany you later. "

 C77

    Yun Ruoleng panicked, and pulled Yun Qingyao''s arm: "Don''t, big sis, Regent¡¯s Mansion is not something that we can enter just by talking, to thank you, we need to send a greeting card, how troublesome it is! Furthermore, His Highness the Regent will be arriving in a few days'' time. Why don''t we thank him at that time?


    Yun Qingyao frowned slightly: "Are you sure that you don''t want me to forget about this matter for a few days?"


    "Where?" Yun Ruoleng''s heart had been exposed, but she did not blush at all as she said: "Do you think that what I said does not make sense?"


    "Even though this is the case, just in case, you still have to personally come and say your thanks." Yun Qingyao did not compromise at all, "This matter is decided. We''ll go after lunch."


    "Elder sister ¡­" Yun Ruoleng felt wronged!


    Thinking about it another way, Yun Ruoleng curiously glanced at Yun Qingyao. When did her sister become so powerful?


    In the end, Yun Ruoleng did not escape the fate of using Regent¡¯s Mansion to repay this kindness. Instead, with a wave of his hand, Yun Qingyao did not even send him off. Yun Ruoleng followed Cui Ying out of the Minister¡¯s Mansion three times a step at a time. His heart wished that his own sister would come out and let him return, but the reality was that Yun Qingyao sat under the banyan tree in a daze, thinking about something unknown.


    "My Miss is a Seventh Miss of the Yun Palace and has specially come to express her thanks to the Regent. I''ll have to trouble the two of you to inform her brothers." Cui Ying stood at the Regent¡¯s Mansion entrance and respectfully introduced himself.


    The two guards looked at each other, and one of them ran towards the Duke Palace very quickly while the other walked to Yun Ruoleng and cupped his hands, "Seventh Miss, the sun at the door, do you want to come in?"


    "No need." Yun Ruoleng did not know that due to the reason why she was humiliated the last time, the butler called everyone in the Duke Palaces to find out about the matter. Seeing the guard''s lousy legs, Yun Ruoleng subconsciously asked: "Has the personality of the people in your Duke Palaces changed?"


    The guard quickly explained, "The people from our King''s Manor are easy to get along with. As for the previous two, they were exceptions ¡­ "Hur hur, an exception."


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows. This guard was smart, not only did he protect the Duke Palace''s reputation, he also gave more than enough face.


    "Like I said! How could such a good person like His Highness have two lackey''s under his command? "


    "Peach Blossom!" Yun Ruoleng''s gaze turned cold, "Don''t be rude!"


    "Yes." Peach Blessing to Yun Ruoleng.


    At first, Cui Ying felt that the guard''s attitude was weird, but later on he finally understood what was going on. He secretly remembered this matter and prepared to report it to Yun Qingyao.


    Not long after the guard went in, he came out with a smile on his face. As if he had found gold, he cupped his hands towards Yun Ruoleng respectfully and said, "Your Highness is waiting for me at Water Spirit Pavilion.


    "Thank you." Yun Ruoleng nodded to the guard and walked in. Just then, she realised why she was afraid of Jun Qingshang. Last night, the one who secretly scouted her room was not her, what was there to be afraid of?


    Cui Ying followed behind Yun Ruoleng. Seeing the obvious change in Yun Ruoleng''s body, he was extremely curious. Just now, at the Minister¡¯s Mansion entrance, Seventh Miss was walking in three directions at a single step, but why did he have such a righteous feeling after arriving at the Duke Palaces, it seemed like ¡­


    "Please wait a moment, ladies." The guards suddenly called out to stop them, Peach Blossom and Cui Ying, "Water Spirit Pavilion are up ahead, it''s better if the two ladies don''t get too close."


    "But my young miss, she ¡­"


    "I''ll go by myself!" Yun Ruoleng waved his hands. He didn''t feel that anything was amiss and directly walked toward the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Peach Blossom immediately became anxious. Her young miss really had a big heart. If the news of her meeting with the Regent Prince got out, it would be terrible.


    "Miss, don''t worry, Prince will not do anything to the Seventh Miss." When the guard saw Peach Blossom''s eyes turn red, he felt some disdain in his heart. However, he still spoke words of consolation.


    "The prince wants you to ¡­"


    "Hey!" Can you let me in to see my Miss? " Seeing An Ying walk over, Peach Blossom''s eyes lit up. She extended her hand and grabbed An Ying, ignoring the difference between males and females, and interrupted him and said.


    An Ying frowned, he lowered his head and looked at the claws grabbing onto his sleeves, Peach Blossom did not notice this, and she tugged on his sleeves: "Whether this will work or not, say something ah!"


    "No." An Ying calmly pulled back her sleeves from Peach Blossom''s grasp, "His Highness had me bring the two of you to the pavilion in front to wait there."


    "You!" Peach Blossom''s anger rose up as she stomped her foot on An Ying''s foot. She did not know where she got the guts from, but after stomping on the ground, she walked away huffily.


    The bodyguards and Cui Ying were both shocked, that was a level 1 bodyguard beside the Regent! She actually dared to ¡­


    He was completely petrified. He did not expect the silent little girl, who had been following behind Yun Ruoleng the whole time, would actually dare to use violence against him in the Duke Palaces without the slightest hesitation.


    "Stop right there!" The first thought that came to An Ying''s mind was to strangle this girl and end this once and for all.


    Would Peach Blossom obediently stand there? Of course not, although she was a little weak in her heart after stepping on An Ying, but she was right, it was all because of these people that she was not allowed to follow her young miss.


    "You ¡­"


    "Calm down, young master. That girl is in a desperate situation. Why bother with her?" Seeing that An Ying was really angry, Cui Ying quickly went forward to explain for Peach Blossom, wanting An Ying to calm down.


    However, An Ying did not take what Cui Ying said to heart, and snorted coldly: "Mind your own business!"


    "¡­" Cui Ying''s mouth twitched, who did he offend?


    But just at that moment, Yun Ruoleng felt that the atmosphere wasn''t right as he walked into the Water Spirit Pavilion s. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, ''bang!'' The door closed.


    "Jun Qingshang!" Yun Ruoleng clenched his teeth as he stared at the tightly shut door, and then turned around and roared at the empty pavilion, "What are you doing? Is the distinguished Lord Regent going to put me under house arrest? "


    "Is This King that bored?" The door to the pavilion suddenly opened, and a burst of pure spiritual energy surged over. Yun Ruoleng subconsciously took a deep breath, and his mood calmed down a lot.


    "How is it?" Seeing that she had calmed down, Jun Qingshang asked softly.


    "Not bad, this place is a good place to cultivate." Yun Ruoleng smiled as he clasped his hands behind his back and walked inside the Water Spirit Pavilion. Just as he walked to the door, he was stopped by Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned: "What are you doing?"


    "Have you forgotten your purpose?" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, the beautiful beautiful eyes was especially enchanting.


    Forgot what? Yun Ruoleng frowned: "Your Highness really makes me thank you huh?"

 C78

    "Shouldn''t you?" Jun Qingshang thought that it would be interesting how this girl would thank him.


    "Your Royal Highness, you seem to have forgotten that you are the one who is profiting greatly!" Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang with a playful smile: "Because you publicly slapped the face of the Lan family, they only dare to apologize, but do not dare to say a word. This is the first step to remove the hindrance of the Little Emperor!"


    "Smart women are not cute." Jun Qingshang withdrew the smile on his face, "This king has indeed benefited a lot from it, but don''t forget, your life was given to you by this king."


    "My life was given to me by my mother!" Yun Ruoleng glared at Jun Qingshang angrily, how could he say anything!


    Did saving his life mean he was giving his own life? How laughable!


    Jun Qingshang sneered: "If it wasn''t for this king, would you still be alive to this day? Even if we took what we needed last night, didn''t you know that the Lan family sent men to assassinate you last night? "


    "I ¡­" Assassination, that''s right.


    At first, he thought that it was because of what happened last night. Now that he thought about it, the smell couldn''t be that heavy, it should have been because Jun Qingshang sent people to protect him last night.


    Yun Ruoleng thought until this point, his brows knitted once again: "Your Highness treats this little girl so well, what exactly is your goal? I don''t like to beat around the bush. "


    "This King said that you are This King''s. Without This King''s order, no one can touch you even a little bit." Jun Qingshang suddenly lowered his body, lowered his head and whispered into Yun Ruoleng''s ear, "You seduced this king, so you have to be responsible for this king."


    "Why are you so angry from embarrassment?" Jun Qingshang was not angry after being pushed aside by Yun Ruoleng. She leaned on the door and laughed sinisterly.


    Yun Ruoleng really wanted to punch him on his peerless appearance, but reason kept telling her not to, that provoking this man would not end well.


    "Your Highness, please behave with dignity!" After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.


    Jun Qingshang reached out and pulled Yun Ruoleng away, then directly threw himself into Jun Qingshang''s embrace with an unstable center of gravity. Jun Qingshang took the opportunity to hug Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned: "You''re thinking too much, let go!"


    Jun Qingshang smirked: "No, how do you feel?"


    "Your Highness, if you don''t let me go, I won''t hold back!" Yun Ruoleng raised his small face that was the size of a palm, and threatened while gnashing his teeth.


    Jun Qingshang knew that Yun Ruoleng was really angry, so he let go of his arms in embarrassment and coughed lightly: "Alright, this king is just teasing you, let''s get down to business. How do you feel? "


    "I don''t feel anything!" Yun Ruoleng turned and left in a huff.


    "If you dare to walk out of this door, give it a try!" When Jun Qingshang saw her actions, his face turned black, and his voice became so cold that it made people shiver.


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body trembled, and he unconsciously retracted the step he had just taken. With his back facing Jun Qingshang, he said helplessly: "Your Highness, what exactly do you want?"


    "He doesn''t have any backbone?" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows. He thought that this little wild cat was going to cause a ruckus again, but didn''t expect it to admit defeat just like that.


    "A wise man knows what to do. It''s not that I don''t have the courage, it''s just that I know what to do." Yun Ruoleng quickly changed his face and laughed sinisterly, "Your Highness, do you have any other orders?"


    "You ¡­ "You are not allowed to laugh." Jun Qingshang stared at Yun Ruoleng, her smile was uglier than crying.


    Sometimes it was like this, sometimes it was like this. Now he couldn''t even smile! The smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face stiffened, and he instantly became angry: "Your Highness, I still have matters to attend to, please forgive me for not accompanying you!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s face darkened, "Yun! If! Cold! Get the hell back here for This King! "


    The voice was loud, so loud that even An Ying who was standing in the pavilion looking for Peach Blossom Theory felt a chill run down his spine.


    "What should we do? Miss seems to have angered the prince again." Tao Hong was extremely anxious, she didn''t even have time to argue with An Ying.


    An Ying''s face also changed, he then looked at Yun Ruoleng who was angry, and suddenly thought of something, and appeared in front of Yun Ruoleng in a flash: "Seventh Miss, in order not to anger others, this subordinate advises you to go back instead."


    "You ¡­ It really is some kind of master or subordinate. I won''t go back today. What can he do to me! " Yun Ruoleng thought about how he was played around by Jun Qingshang just now, and how he felt uncomfortable being called around like that.


    Having lived two lives, she had never felt so aggrieved before!


    "Then I can only send you back." Before Yun Ruoleng could react, she realized that he could not move, and was lifted up by someone else. Her body felt light, and when she regained her senses, she was already standing in front of Jun Qingshang.


    "You ¡­"


    "Step down!" Jun Qingshang''s face was gloomy, his gaze sweeping across An Ying, and landed on his body.


    An Ying replied and left without looking back.


    Gone? Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes swiveled, and she couldn''t move her entire body. She felt extremely uncomfortable, and in the end, An Ying just left like that ¡­


    Jun Qingshang stared at Yun Ruoleng, but she was not thinking about him, instead she was thinking about An Ying.


    Very good! Woman, you asked for this yourself!


    Jun Qingshang stretched out his hand, and directly woke up Yun Ruoleng who was still cursing at him.


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart tightened, facing Jun Qingshang''s gloomy eyes, his heart trembled uncontrollably: "Your Highness, I was wrong, Master must have released a large number of small girls, right?"


    "Do you think that''s possible?" Jun Qingshang pinched Yun Ruoleng''s small chin, seemingly feeling a lot better after seeing her panicked look. "How does this duke want to punish you?"


    "Your Highness ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s lips slightly pursed, her phoenix eyes filled with mist.


    Jun Qingshang''s hand that was pinching Yun Ruoleng''s chin stiffened, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "You really know how to act! Don''t think that This King will believe you with just a few tears. "


    "¡­" Your sister! Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but want to scold Jun Qingshang a few times, but in order to not embarrass himself, Yun Ruoleng felt even more wronged: "Your Highness, my entire body is stiff, can you help me open my acupoints first?"


    "Don''t even think about it." Jun Qingshang''s heart slightly trembled, he quickly stopped opening his eyes, and released Yun Ruoleng''s chin as he spoke.


    "But it''s really stiff. I''m afraid I won''t be able to stand and will fall." Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes and looked even more pitiful.


    Jun Qingshang scratched his chin, appreciating Yun Ruoleng''s expression, who knows how long he thought, when he suddenly said: "This is good, I don''t want you to run around." It was just that An Ying was getting more and more familiar with the rules, and he had to be rewarded ¡­


    "Is it true?" Yun Ruoleng shrunk his neck, a look of helplessness appeared in his eyes, his logic told him that Jun Qingshang was not joking.


    "Does This King seem to be joking with you?" Jun Qingshang chuckled, and turned to enter the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face instantly darkened. "Jun Qingshang, get back here right now!"

 C79

    Yun Ruoleng was stuck at the door, but not only was he not able to bask in the sunlight, he could even blow on the cool breeze coming from his Water Spirit Pavilion.


    If he was standing, this position was indeed very comfortable.


    An hour had passed and the acupoints on Yun Ruoleng''s body suddenly opened up, he was not aware of it, and directly collapsed to the ground.


    Ah!" Yun Ruo frowned. It hurt so much! Yun Ruo gently wiped her moist forehead with her sleeve, cursing Jun Qingsheng a thousand times in her heart.


    "Why aren''t you coming in!"


    Yun Ruoleng was sitting on the ground, slandering Jun Qingshang, while rubbing his own leg that had long been frozen solid. Suddenly, a bone-piercing cold voice came from behind, Yun Ruoleng''s entire body stiffened, he turned and saw that it was Jun Qingshang, who was so angry that he did not say anything.


    "Did you not manage to stand up enough?" Seeing that she was sitting on the ice-cold ground, Jun Qingshang frowned, and a weak light flashed past his eyes.


    If Yun Ruoleng had talked back to her with Jun Qingshang before, she would not have dared to do so even if she was given a hundred times the guts. She did not want to continue standing, it was simply too tiring.


    Yun Ruoleng quickly crawled up from the ground, and upon seeing this, Jun Qingshang calmly turned around and left. Yun Ruoleng was startled, then he heard Jun Qingshang say: "What are you standing there for! "Come in."


    Yun Ruoleng curled his lips, and made an extremely disdainful gesture at Jun Qingshang''s back.


    "You''d better not play any tricks." Jun Qingshang suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look at the confused and innocent Yun Ruoleng, glared at her, and continued to walk forward.


    had experienced the feeling of dense spirit energy twice today, and there was a place in his brain that was currently absorbing the spirit energy of this space like a bottomless pit. He could not help but stop in his tracks in confusion.


    "What''s wrong?" After Jun Qingshang walked a few steps, he realized that no one was following him, and when he turned his head, he saw a confused Yun Ruoleng.


    "I, I don''t know either." Yun Ruoleng shook his head, "It''s like there''s a bottomless pit in my mind, I can feel it absorbing the spirit energy here, and ¡­ "Hmm, my head is hurting a bit."


    At first, Jun Qingshang thought that Yun Ruoleng was just automatically absorbing spiritual qi, but after hearing her say it gave him a headache, he had a bad premonition. He didn''t care about anything else, he just carried Yun Ruoleng and walked out.


    "Jun ¡­"


    "This King will immediately find an imperial physician for you." Jun Qingshang did not see the expression of the person in his arms, and instead quickened his pace.


    "No, my head doesn''t hurt anymore. Put me down first." Yun Ruoleng panicked and pushed Jun Qingshang to try to stop him.


    Jun Qingshang''s footsteps did not change, but his expression became a little better: "Then we will have to see a doctor, after all, it''s the first time absorbing such a large amount of Spirit Qi, so it''s possible that he cannot withstand it."


    "No ¡­" Sigh! Jun Qingshang, I am doing really well right now, and there is one more thing in my mind ¡­ " Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, and asked with some confusion: "A golden ball, it looks very pretty."


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang suddenly stopped in his tracks, the expression on his face turning very strange.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked innocently as he looked at Jun Qingshang. After the two of them had stared at each other for a few seconds, Yun Ruoleng finally could not bear to continue watching. "It''s fine if you don''t know.


    "That''s a magic pill, just like we practice inner force ¡­"


    "Is it really that simple?" Yun Ruoleng could not believe it and frowned, "I''m afraid something is not going to happen to my brain? Like a brain tumor or something? "


    "Brain tumor? What is that thing? " Jun Qingshang asked suspiciously.


    "Cough!" Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose: "Can you put me down first, your highness?"


    "What''s a brain tumor?" Jun Qingshang''s attention was not distracted by Yun Ruoleng''s words, so he carefully placed Yun Ruoleng on the ground and asked.


    Yun Ruoleng really wanted to slap himself a few times.


    Yun Ruoleng guiltily glanced at Jun Qingshang: "It''s just that my brain has something that I shouldn''t have, that I''m sick ¡­ "Sigh, people will die anyway."


    Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng as if he was looking at an idiot: "Witch pills won''t kill people, and this kind of thing can only be found by witches, and it''s not something every witch can have."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, no wonder why his gaze was so strange just now, so that was the case!


    "Have you tried that jade plate?" Jun Qingshang suddenly asked, "Based on your current abilities, you should be able to open the jade pendant."


    Yun Ruoleng fished out the jade pendant from his chest, his hand constantly flipping it: "How do I open it?"


    "By injecting all my power into it, I''ll be able to open it once it''s full." Jun Qingshang stared at the jade pendant in his hand, but he did not know what he was thinking about, causing Yun Ruoleng to feel guilty, afraid that he did not manage to open it.


    Jun Qingshang glanced at her, "Try transferring your Shaman Energy inside."


    Yun Ruoleng closed his eyes and attempted to infuse his Innate Skill into his body. The first time was a failure, and the second time was a failure as well.


    "Don''t worry, you can do it." Jun Qingshang''s voice sounded out at the right time, carrying a trace of encouragement and trust.


    For some reason, Yun Ruoleng who wanted to give up suddenly felt that his entire body was filled with energy, and once again tried repeatedly. After a dozen or so times, Yun Ruoleng was so tired that he started sweating profusely.


    "Sssii!" As if his clothes were torn apart, Yun Ruoleng looked at the jade in his hand emitting a dazzling golden light. After half an incense stick of time, Bai Ze''s jade pendant turned black.


    The seal has a total of seven layers. Now that I''ve undone one layer, I''m afraid I''ll need a bit more time to unseal it next time." Jun Qingsheng looked down at the jade pendant, and then back at Yun Ruo Leng. "There''s a jade bed inside. There''s plenty of spirit energy there. Let''s rest for a while!


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body was exhausted, there was nothing he could do even if he wanted to refuse. Jun Qingshang helped Yun Ruoleng to get onto the jade bed inside, and made her lie down: "Be more honest and don''t move."


    Yun Ruoleng glared at Jun Qingshang. She was too lazy to even move a finger right now, what was she trying to warn him about?


    Jun Qingshang turned a blind eye to Yun Ruoleng''s accusation, he stood up and walked out, afraid that Yun Ruoleng would be scared, he said one sentence before he left: "I am handling official matters, you can rest here."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s eyelids gradually grew heavier. Before he even reached the door, he heard uniform breathing from inside. The cold and stiff mouth slightly raised, making him look like he was in a good mood.


    But at this moment, when Peach Blossom saw that Yun Ruoleng had not come out for an hour, she became even more flustered: "Sister Cui Ying, say, His Highness won''t kill my family''s young miss, right?"

 C80

    "It shouldn''t be, right?" Cui Ying didn''t dare be sure. After all, the angry roar just now was enough proof that Seventh Miss had offended the Regent.


    "It will be fine!" Peach Red took a deep breath and quickly comforted herself, "Her Highness has always been very good to Miss, even if she''s angry, she wouldn''t really act against Miss."


    Cui Ying sighed in his heart, the temper of the Regent King had always been volatile. Who knew if he would make a move on the Seventh Miss this time?


    The two of them were anxiously walking back and forth in the pavilion when the Water Spirit Pavilion door suddenly opened. The two of them quickly looked in the direction of the door and saw that Jun Qingshang, who was dressed in black robes, had walked out. An Ying, who had gone somewhere else, appeared beside him.


    Peach Blossom took the chance and rushed forward to grab An Ying: "What did you do to my family''s young miss?"


    "What can I do to Seventh Miss?" An Ying frowned in displeasure, "Seventh Miss is resting inside the Water Spirit Pavilion, His Highness has ordered for no one to be allowed to enter. If you have nothing else to do, you can go to the kitchen and prepare some food. "


    "Really?" Tao Hong did not believe what An Ying said. After all, this person was with the Regent King.


    "Believe it or not!" An Ying was too lazy to explain to her, so he turned around and left.


    Peach Red saw that An Ying had ignored her and directly left, causing her eyes to turn red from anxiousness, she stomped her feet and asked: "Hey! "Where''s the kitchen?"


    An Ying still did not turn back, and only pointed Peach Blossom in a direction, not even saying a word.


    Peach Blossom stomped her feet in anger. Cui Ying shook his head and tried to chase her to ask: "Forget it, we''ll know when we get there."


    "Sister Cui Ying, we are not familiar with each other in the Duke Palaces, where should we go?" Peach Red was nervous for Yun Ruoleng, but she knew that the Regent¡¯s Mansion was not something that a servant girl like her could barge into.


    "Then ask me the way!" Wait here, I''ll be right back. " Cui Ying gave Peach Blossom a comforting smile and quickly left. As for Peach Blossom, she frowned as she looked in the direction Cui Ying left in, then turned her head to look at the tightly shut Water Spirit Pavilion. She sighed, not knowing when the young miss would come out.


    Jun Qingshang stepped into the study, and An Ying immediately followed: "Master, do you want to send people to guard Water Spirit Pavilion?"


    "No need." Jun Qingshang sat on the table, he opened a imperial report and suddenly thought of something, he closed the imperial report and said coldly: "Go to the kitchen and inform everyone to prepare the special dishes."


    "Yes." An Ying replied. Although he was not convinced, but Jun Qingshang had given the orders, so he had no choice.


    After Cui Ying walked around the garden, she found that she was really lost, and at this time, she could not even see a single person. It was unknown if her luck was bad or if she was unable to find a way back after wandering the whole garden.


    "Who?" As Cui Ying was standing under the tree, trying to distinguish between north, south, east and west, his head suddenly hit by something, he angrily raised his head and glared at the person on the tree.


    "This is the palace garden, how did you get here if you aren''t a servant girl from the palace?" Sitting on the tree was a cute little girl wearing light green clothes.


    "I am a servant of the Minister¡¯s Mansion. I specially accompanied Seventh Miss to thank Your Highness today, but I don''t want to get lost." Although Cui Ying did not know the other party''s identity, looking at her dressing, she should have a high position in the Duke''s Palace.


    "Eh ¡­" The girl landed on the tree and stood beside Cui Ying, her eyes wide, "Why have I not seen Seventh Miss have a servant like you?"


    "I am Third Young Miss''s personal maid." Cui Ying frowned, "I wonder if Miss can tell me the way to Water Spirit Pavilion?"


    The girl frowned, and looked at Cui Ying vigilantly.


    Cui Ying''s hair stood on end as she looked at him, and he could not help but ask: "Does Miss know your path?"


    "Of course!" The girl coldly snorted and asked with a displeased expression, "Why are you going there?"


    "The Prince has locked his Seventh Miss inside." Cui Ying paused, but continued to patiently ask, "Can the lady give me a path?"


    "I''m the one ¡­"


    "An Xiang!"


    "Big Brother An Ying." The girl''s eyes lit up, and turned towards An Ying with a particularly sweet smile.


    "Where is Miss Cui Ying going?" An Ying didn''t even look at An Xiang, as his gaze landed on Cui Ying''s embarrassed face.


    Cui Ying coughed lightly. "I couldn''t find the kitchen, so I wanted to return to Water Spirit Pavilion but... I''m lost. "


    "An Xiang, take her with you!" An Ying nodded, and then turned and said to An Xiang, with a doting smile on his face, "You are not allowed to be rude to this lady."


    An Xiang pouted, her almond-shaped eyes swept across Cui Ying, and said unhappily: "I don''t want it!"


    "An Xiang!" An Ying was the leader of Jun Qingshang''s guards, but this An Xiang had always done as she pleased. Furthermore, she was the only girl in An Ying''s guard, so none of them bothered about her. As long as she didn''t make too many mistakes, they wouldn''t make things difficult for her.


    Of course, Jun Qingshang had always treated them equally.


    An Ying was suddenly annoyed: "Stop messing around! If the Prince finds out, you''ll be punished again. "


    "I ¡­"


    Seeing that An Xiang was not willing to send him on his way, Cui Ying did not feel troubled, but instead invited An Ying to send him off.


    An Xiang did not expect herself to reject Cui Ying in such a way and she was not angry. What made her even more surprised was that Cui Ying had pulled An Ying away from the place, who had been cold and emotionless all this time.


    After accompanying Cui Ying to the kitchen, An Ying escorted her back to the pavilion safely, then returned to the study room to report back, "Master, An Xiang is back."


    Jun Qingshang did not make a sound, and quickly wrote the word "Quasi" on the imperial report before raising his head and coldly saying: "An Ying Wei is getting more and more unruly."


    "This subordinate knows his wrongs ¡­"


    "You know your wrongs?" Jun Qingshang threw the imperial report onto the table and chuckled, "What''s wrong with that?"


    "Master handed An Ying''s guards over to Subordinate, this Subordinate did not take care of this Subordinate properly, the fault is one. This Subordinate protected this Subordinate, and if you are aware of the mistake, this Subordinate wishes Master to punish you."


    "Go claim fifty lashes for yourself." After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, he continued to review the imperial reports.


    "Yes sir!" An Ying knew that he would not be able to escape this time, so he replied and left.


    Yun Ruoleng slept until he naturally woke up. After waking up, he felt that he was extremely energetic, and his entire body felt a lot more at ease. He sat on the bed and looked around his surroundings. Only then did he realize that he was not in his own Everlasting Courtyard.


    Yun Ruoleng got off the jade bed and walked out of the room as fast as he could.


    The summer sunset was especially alluring. The orange horizon revealed half of the sun''s face. It seemed as if it was reluctant to part with the sun for the rest of the day.

 C81

    "How long have I been asleep ¡­" Yun Ruoleng scratched his head in frustration and pulled open the heavy door.


    Peach Blossom and Cui Ying stood inside the pavilion, and their hearts were at ease as they watched Water Spirit Pavilion''s door slowly open.


    "Miss, you''re finally out." The moment Peach Blossom saw Yun Ruoleng, it was as if she had seen her master. She opened her mouth and started to complain, "I don''t know how can Your Highness is such a good person, how can you have such a subordinate? An Ying actually refused to let me in even if I was dead or alive, I stepped on his leg, and he still tried to find me to argue.


    "¡­" The more Yun Ruoleng heard, the more the corner of his mouth twitched, "You stepped on An Ying''s foot?"


    "Yes." Tao Hong did not understand the meaning behind Yun Ruoleng''s words and nodded.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at Peach Blossom in annoyance: "You sure are bold, aren''t you afraid that he''ll kill you with a single slash?"


    "No, it can''t be?" Peach Red shrank back. This time, she was truly frightened by Yun Ruoleng.


    Of course not, Yun Ruoleng was just scaring Peach Blossom, all of them nodded their heads seriously: "In the future, watch him leave, if it wasn''t for him just now, I wouldn''t have been captured."


    Yun Ruoleng was furious at the thought of An Ying. She remembered that there will be a day when she will take revenge.


    "Seventh Miss, do you think we should bid farewell to His Highness now?" Cui Ying saw that the master and servant were preparing to reminisce about old times, and immediately cut them off.


    "I''ve been out for so long. I must be getting impatient." Yun Ruoleng nodded at Cui Ying, "We will bid our farewells to the Duke, and let the later go to the embroidery workshop to get a few sets of clothes."


    "Alright." Peach Red nodded in approval. Although she couldn''t wear it, she could still take a look.


    "Is Seventh Miss going to the King''s study?" Just as Yun Ruoleng wanted to ask how to find Jun Qingshang, a person suddenly appeared behind him.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, and stared coldly at the man standing in front of him: "Who are you?"


    "This subordinate''s order is to wait here for Seventh Miss to wake up." The man paused: "Who this subordinate is is is not important. What is important is that Seventh Miss only needs to know that this subordinate is under the orders of the Prince. Before leaving, Prince said that the Seventh Miss had asked his subordinate to bring him straight to Shang Mo Pavilion when he woke up. "


    "Thank you." Yun Ruoleng did not really care about who this man was. Seeing that he and An Ying both carried the same golden eagle medallion, she guessed that he was one of An Ying''s guardians!


    Shang Mo Pavilion arrived very quickly. To be more precise, Shang Mo Pavilion and Water Spirit Pavilion were two sides, however, one was located in the front courtyard and the other was the rear courtyard.


    "Seventh Miss." An Ying stood at the entrance of Shang Mo Pavilion, and when he saw Yun Ruoleng walking over, he respectfully cupped his hands.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze landed on the woman behind An Ying. The girl had a lively appearance, especially those pair of eyes. She seemed to be able to speak and was especially adorable.


    However, when Yun Ruoleng was sizing up the girl, the girl was also sizing up Yun Ruoleng. When she saw Yun Ruoleng''s face, she was first surprised, then disdainful, and she snorted coldly.


    Having been whipped fifty times, An Ying''s face was somewhat pale. After hearing the girl''s cold snort, his expression immediately turned black. "An Xiang!"


    "I''m going to see what''s coming from the kitchen." The girl didn''t even hear An Ying''s warning as she turned around and left.


    "An Xiang?" Yun Ruoleng touched his chin with interest: "Looks like you really are an interesting fellow."


    "She''s the only girl in An Ying''s guard, and she''s the youngest. Everyone has always spoiled her, it''s this subordinate who isn''t strict with his discipline, I hope that Seventh Miss can forgive me." An Ying braced himself and explained a few things to An Xiang.


    "Tsk, tsk, Lord An Ying is actually pleading for mercy on behalf of someone else." Yun Ruoleng''s personality said that she would take revenge for any grievances, and she would not let go of such a good opportunity, "Since you, the An Ying Guards, despise me so much, why should I stay? "When I get back, I''ll tell your master that I''ll be leaving first."


    Yun Ruoleng''s words truly scared An Ying to death, and he immediately said: "This subordinate does not look down on Seventh Miss, Seventh Miss''s godly work has already convinced the people of the world, how can this subordinate not accept it?"


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng playfully ran his fingers through his hair, "But you showed a face of reluctance... If he had really accepted me, he wouldn''t have gone straight to the point. Sigh! I think I''d better go. "


    "Don''t ¡­" An Ying curled his lips, trying to make his smile look more natural, "The Duke is still waiting for Seventh Miss!"


    "It''s not like I saw it!" After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he was about to leave, but he didn''t see a figure just walking out of the room.


    "Have you had enough fun?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s footsteps paused, he turned around and smiled to Jun Qingshang, who was standing at the door: "I was just trying to scare him, who let him point my acupoints."


    After An Ying heard this, his face turned ugly. He kept slandering Yun Ruoleng in his heart, this woman was truly sinister, was she trying to scare him?


    This was a fatal joke!


    Yun Ruoleng did not know how to read the thoughts, so he naturally did not know what An Ying was thinking. Yun Ruoleng was very happy to see Jun Qingshang. He quickly walked to''s side and shared with him: "After I woke up, my body felt much lighter, and my footsteps were even lighter. I really have to thank you for this time."


    Jun Qingshang unceremoniously nodded his head: "How do you want to thank me?"


    "I don''t have anything to give you." Yun Ruoleng paused for a while. "How about I gift you a set of clothes that I designed myself?"


    "This King likes what you do more." Jun Qingshang smirked, suddenly went closer, and said softly, "It would be best if it was intimate."


    Yun Ruoleng''s little face immediately turned red, her phoenix eyes widened: "Jun Qingshang, you''re going too far!"


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head in satisfaction: "I feel that this thing is very good. After sleeping for an entire afternoon, you must be hungry, so you can''t leave until after eating dinner. "


    Jun Qingshang''s words could not be refused. Before Yun Ruoleng could even nod his head in agreement, he was pulled into Shang Mo Pavilion by Jun Qingshang and muttered softly, "Who would keep guests like you? How tyrannical! "


    "This King only treats you tyrannically." Jun Qingshang sat beside Yun Ruoleng. The beautiful beautiful eyes slightly raised her hand, looking like she was in a good mood.


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, "Your Highness, has anyone ever said that you deserve a beating when you laugh?"


    "Nope." Jun Qingshang''s hand that was holding onto the chopsticks suddenly paused, "Only someone said that this king''s smile can charm all living things."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng decided not to speak with this arrogant and narcissistic man.


    "Eat more." Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng who was eating the food and frowned, "This sweet and sour Xiao Lie''s taste is not bad today, try it, and this fish is also not bad too."


    "Jun Qingshang?" Yun Ruoleng paused when he was eating, "Why are you so good to me?"


    "You are useful to This King..." Jun Qingshang placed a piece of fish into Yun Ruoleng''s bowl, "You have to remember what I do for you, and whatever I tell you to do in the future, you should do it without hesitation."

 C82

    "Anyway, I won''t do anything that violates my principles." Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly, and continued to eat.


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly, a pair of beautiful eyes flashed a light aura, looking at Yun Ruoleng''s cheeks, he could not help but choke on his saliva, suddenly feeling that the food today was all right for him.


    What do you mean by ''beautiful and edible''? Jun Qingshang finally understood it now. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was eating so sweetly, he himself felt that the food was a lot more tasty.


    After finishing the meal, Yun Ruoleng patted his stomach in satisfaction, "I''ve also eaten, I''ll be returning now."


    "Alright." Jun Qingshang did not make things difficult for Yun Ruoleng this time, but the next sentence nearly made him kneel.


    "This King will send you back!"


    "No, there''s no need." Yun Ruoleng shuddered. What a joke, letting Jun Qingshang send him back, wouldn''t that be announcing to the whole world that he had a deep relationship with the Regent King? He was drawing aggro for himself!


    "This King has the final say!" Jun Qingshang stood up and walked out, and before he left, he dragged Yun Ruoleng who had a troubled expression on his face.


    Peach Blossom and Cui Ying stood at the door and watched as the two walked out hand in hand, they were extremely surprised. Peach Blossom was used to it, after being shocked, she pretended not to see them and lowered her head to play with her fingers.


    Cui Ying did not open his eyes to take note of this matter, and returned to report it to his master.


    "Jun... Your Highness, can you let go of me? " Yun Ruoleng stared at the shocked eyes of the crowd and started to panic. This mansion was still alright, if he went out he would be beaten to death by the girls on the street.


    A hint of displeasure appeared on Jun Qingshang''s clearly defined face. "You don''t like being in contact with this king that much?"


    Logic told Yun Ruoleng that as long as he nodded his head, Jun Qingshang would definitely throw him out of the Duke Palaces. For his own safety, Yun Ruoleng shook his head: "I''m just afraid that others will misunderstand our relationship."


    "Then let them misunderstand!" Jun Qingshang didn''t mind in the slightest as he continued to drag Yun Ruoleng forward.


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart turned cold, was this Jun Qingshang trying to kill him?


    An Ying had thought of something while following behind the two of them. Peach Blossom and Cui Ying looked at each other, and a figure suddenly appeared in front of Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng. How about you bring An Xiang along? "


    Jun Qingshang''s face immediately became gloomy: You''re done with this?


    "Your subordinate is done." An Xiang stared intently at Jun Qingshang who was holding onto Yun Ruoleng''s hand and frowned, "Your Highness ¡­"


    "Since you want to follow me, follow me!" Jun Qingshang stared at An Xiang, and instructed coldly: "From now on, you will stay by Yun Ruoleng''s side to serve him."


    An Xiang was startled, then reacted with displeasure, "No, this subordinate grew up by Your Highness''s side, and did not want to change master!"


    "No!" It''s good that I have Peach Blossom by my side. I don''t need to get used to people I''m not familiar with! " Yun Ruoleng shouted at almost the same time as An Xiang.


    Jun Qingshang''s entire body released a cold aura, and the aura of a king that came from both heaven and earth instantly exploded. "This king''s decision cannot be doubted."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng shrunk his neck, how could it be like this?


    "Your Highness ¡­" An Xiang felt that he was extremely unlucky. Initially, he had only wanted to follow them out to play, but his master had already taken him out to send someone away.


    Jun Qingshang coldly swept a glance at An Xiang, causing An Xiang to lower his head and nod his head in grievance: "This subordinate understands!"


    "That ¡­"


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes as a wave of dangerous aura assaulted his senses.


    Yun Ruoleng immediately changed his words: "It''s alright, I just wanted to thank you."


    "Yes." Seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not reject her, Jun Qingshang pulled her along and continued to walk out.


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire heart was lifted, and he tried to retract his hand several times but to no avail. On the contrary, he had only angered Jun Qingshang. In the end, Yun Ruoleng did not care anymore, she could just hold on to them, but she had to take responsibility for the things that happened in front of her.


    After Jun Qingshang sent Yun Ruoleng to the Minister¡¯s Mansion entrance, he rode on a carriage and left. Yun Ruoleng and the group looked at each other as they stood at the door.


    Seeing An Xiang staring at him, Yun Ruoleng frowned: "What''s with your eyes? If you don''t want to come, then go back! "


    "Do you think I want to follow you!?" An Xiang felt that he had been wronged. Wasn''t it because he wanted to play around and had to follow the Duke? He gave himself to this beautiful woman just like that?


    "Then go!" Yun Ruoleng sneered, and without holding back, he pointed outside the Minister¡¯s Mansion. "Come, come, come, I don''t want to see you either."


    "You ¡­" An Xiang glared at Yun Ruoleng angrily, "I''m not leaving, Your Highness wants me to watch you."


    "Protection?" Peach Blossom glanced at her in disdain, "Miss, if it''s a surveillance device, we should return it as soon as possible!" In case it''s inconvenient to do anything, you have to give her a bite to eat. "


    "True." Yun Ruoleng gave Peach Red an appreciative look, "I''ll get someone to send her back right now."


    "¡­" An Xiang glared at the master and servant duo who were singing the same tune, and looked at them in disbelief.


    "Seventh Miss, although that girl''s words are unpleasant to hear, her kung fu is not bad, why don''t we stay!" Cui Ying suddenly spoke out: "Also, don''t make things difficult for the Duke."


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at An Xiang, and reluctantly nodded: "Forget it, just opening my mouth, I am still alive. Go back to your residence! "


    "Miss An Xiang, please." Yun Ruoleng shook her head helplessly, then turned and smiled at An Xiang, "Seventh Miss has suffered a lot since she was young, making her a little eccentric is unavoidable, but since you were good to her, she will remember what happened. You should not worry too much about it, Seventh Miss just could not accept the Regent King sending a person to her side all of a sudden."


    "Aren''t you from the Third Miss'' side?" An Xiang looked at Cui Ying suspiciously: "Why are you speaking up for Yun Ruoleng?"


    "Seventh Miss and third miss are the same mother and son. My young miss has always been protecting the Seventh Miss, so naturally, as a servant, I have to protect the Seventh Miss as well." Cui Ying smiled slightly, as if he felt that it was very natural.


    An Xiang''s eyes turned round and round: "You mean that my Highness is protecting Yun Ruoleng, so I should also be protecting her?"


    Cui Ying blessed An Xiang: "Then it depends on how you think. We have arrived at the Ao Xue Yuan.


    An Xiang stood at the door for a long time. It was unknown if he had understood everything, but he walked in.


    Once he entered, he heard Yun Ruoleng instructing Peach Blossom: "Go and tidy up the rooms in the west wing, An Xiang will stay there. "Since we''re the only ones here, one room for each of us is enough."


    "But Miss, the room is for guests." Peach Red refused to accept this and said, "Her Highness sent her here for your servants, not for you to be a guest. You can''t be too polite to her."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly in displeasure: "In the future, everyone will live together, there won''t be any master or servant, quickly go!"

 C83

    "Miss ¡­"


    "Are you not going to listen to me anymore?" Yun Ruoleng''s face immediately darkened, as she cut off the words that Peach Blossom wanted to say.


    Peach Blossom lightly bit her lips. She knew that no matter how much she said, her master wouldn''t change his mind, so she could only dejectedly turn around and leave.


    An Xiang was just standing at the door, looking at Peach Blossom''s unconvinced face as she walked out. Peach Blossom only shot her a glare before leaving.


    "¡­" An Xiang curled his lips and walked in with disdain.


    "This place is too run-down." An Xiang walked in and scanned the room that Yun Ruoleng was staying with disdain. Although everything inside was present, all of these things were the worst quality materials.


    To the maids who lived in the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Yun Ruoleng''s room was not even comparable to any of their rooms.


    Yun Ruoleng was in the midst of tidying up the quilt, and upon hearing An Xiang''s words, he chuckled lightly: "Didn''t you see that your master had asked you to come here to suffer?"


    "Can''t tell." An Xiang chuckled as he stood beside Yun Ruoleng, and said softly, "Because Seventh Miss is the richest person in the entire Minister¡¯s Mansion, I believe that Your Highness definitely won''t let me come here to suffer, but rather, let me come to defend the wealth."


    With a smirk on his face, Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows and asked, "When did I get rich?"


    "An Yue said that any one of your paintings could sell for more than a hundred thousand silver. This is a typical living gold mountain!" An Xiang''s personality was simple, she said whatever she wanted to say, so she quickly sold out An Yue.


    An Yue who was sitting on the branch and watching the show almost fell down. At that time, he was only joking around, but this damned girl remembered it.


    Yun Ruoleng pursed his lips and laughed: "Then you still have to go back and thank your master! After all, he told you to guard such a big silver mountain like me, so you won''t have to worry about buying food from now on. "


    An Xiang''s little face stiffened, and let out a cold snort with arrogance. "Who wants to eat it!? I''m just working for our master! "


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head seriously, then asked: "Are you referring to An Yue, the person from the An Ying Guards?"


    "That''s right!" An Xiang nodded his head, and suddenly said with his head lowered, "I wonder where he has been recently, I have not seen him for almost a day."


    "You like him a lot?" An Xiang''s expression immediately attracted Yun Ruoleng''s attention.


    An Xiang was startled at first, but then his face revealed a layer of pink, as he fiercely glared at Yun Ruoleng: "What does it have to do with you!"


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose: "It''s fine if you don''t want to say it, it''s getting late, you should go rest too."


    "Where do I live?" Seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not continue with the questioning, An Xiang''s watery eyes turned, and asked in disbelief, "You wouldn''t have arranged for me to be in a place where I can''t even see you, right?"


    This Seventh Miss always felt that she was different from the other young mistresses of other families. Her identity as a secret guard as the Regent might not even be of any use here. However, she didn''t want to live in such a remote place!


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at her and said: "West wing. Peach Blossom has already been cleaned up.


    "Oh." Only then did An Xiang feel at ease and nodded his head, before leaving Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    Looking at An Xiang''s leaving figure, Yun Ruoleng shook his head helplessly. This girl was really a little girl. But this was also good. If Jun Qingshang sent a scheming woman to her, that would be the real trouble.


    Who knew that not long after An Xiang left, Peach Blossom walked in angrily: "Miss, An Xiang is too much!"


    Yun Ruoleng sat on the side of the bed and slightly frowned: "What''s wrong? Did she bully you? "


    "It''s not bullying!" Peach Red thought about how An Xiang was being picky and felt uncomfortable, and said angrily: "She has always been picky about the west wing. It''s not good there, even harder than young miss to serve!"


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his forehead and laughed bitterly: "When will the two of you get along peacefully!"


    "This servant feels that I won''t be able to live in peace with her!" Peach Blossom was so angry that her face turned red. It could be seen that she was truly angry this time.


    Yun Ruoleng only felt tired as he patted the side of his bed. Peach sat on the edge of the bed, her small mouth pouting. Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "Peach Blossom, she was given to us by the Regent King. Can we return her goods?"


    Of course not! Peach Red shook her head. The Regent''s words were unquestionable. If she went back, even Miss would be in trouble.


    "Then that''s right. Since I can''t return, I can only keep it myself." Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, and comforted her, "But since she accepted it, why not make her one of us? Although An Xiang''s martial arts are not good, looking at her nimble movements, her Qing Gong is not simple at all. Furthermore, she is still young and will be long in the future. "


    Yun Ruoleng''s words caused the angry Peach Blossom to calm down, and she asked: "Then what should I do?"


    "Your current task is to properly settle your relationship with her, don''t cause me any headaches." Yun Ruoleng said snappily, "Tomorrow, I will go to the embroidery workshop and find a shop to set up a painting exhibition, so I had to clean up An Xiang''s room and rest early."


    "This servant understands." Although Peach Blossom was still unable to accept the sudden arrival of An Xiang, but after hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, she calmed down a lot.


    Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief after seeing Peach Blossom leave, hoping that the two of them could get along together again.


    On the morning of the next day, after Yun Ruoleng got up from his bed, he saw two people who looked unhappily at each other standing in front of his bed.


    "What happened?" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flickered slightly as he looked at the two of them in confusion.


    Tao Hong glared at An Xiang and said: "When this servant was cooking the porridge earlier, An Xiang had turned the salt into sugar and completely ruined the pot of porridge?"


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, seeing their serious expressions, he thought that it was just because of the pot of porridge, so it turned out that way! Yun Ruoleng sighed, "Then let''s go out to eat."


    "But ¡­"


    "An Xiang has never done it in the Duke Palaces, she only helped you out of good intentions. "Don''t bother." Yun Ruoleng frowned, and waved his hand casually.


    She bit her lips lightly and glanced at An Xiang. An Xiang pouted and looked pitifully at Peach Blossom, "I really don''t know ¡­"


    "Well, don''t go to the kitchen!" Peach Red coldly snorted and turned her face away.


    When Yun Ruoleng saw the two of them, Yun Ruoleng felt a headache coming on. At this moment, Yun Ruoleng finally understood why Jun Qingshang gave him this An Xiang, it was to add fuel to the fire!


    In the morning, Yun Ruoleng''s face did not look too good, Peach Blossom silently followed beside Yun Ruoleng.


    At first, An Xiang stayed by Yun Ruoleng''s side, but later, he felt that Yun Ruoleng was the same as Jun Qingshang, and was not fun at all.

 C84

    After Yun Ruoleng finished packing, An Xiang just happened to return at the same time. The two of them looked at each other, and An Xiang arrogantly turned her face away. Yun Ruoleng coughed lightly: "We are going to the embroidery workshop now, do you want to go?"


    An Xiang really wanted to refuse, but when she saw the basket in her hands, she quickly changed her mind: "I want to go."


    "Let''s go!" Yun Ruoleng did not speak anymore, and immediately walked out. He tilted his head and frowned, and quickly followed.


    Who knew that right after they left the house, they would meet Yun Yueyu who was strolling around the garden. Yun Ruoleng did not have the mood to bother with her, so he prepared to avoid her and leave immediately. However, Yun Yueyu suddenly had someone block his path: "Seventh Sister, could it be that you have done something shameful?"


    "Big Sis, you can eat whatever you want with this food, but you can''t say whatever you want." Yun Ruoleng sneered, "I always have a clear conscience when doing things."


    "What a clear conscience." Yun Yueyu''s delicate face shot a glance at Yun Ruoleng, and his gaze landed on An Xiang who was looking left and right, "This Minister¡¯s Mansion is not something that can be entered by any random cat or dog, Seventh Sister better not bring anyone into the residence."


    "This is Miss An Xiang of the An Ying Guards. Elder sister, please pay attention to your words. " The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, carrying a trace of a cold smile.


    "An Ying Guard?" Yun Yueyu''s face obviously stiffened. Who didn''t know that his majesty the regent had a powerful army under his command? The name of the army was called the An Ying Guards.


    "I was wondering who it was! So she is the young miss of the Yun Family who is known as the number one beauty in the world. " An Xiang was not an easy opponent, when Yun Ruoleng bullied her, she did not retaliate, but that was because she did not care about Yun Yueyu at all, what kind of person was Yun Yueyu!


    "You ¡­" Yun Yueyu''s face immediately darkened. If it was the past, she might not have minded this phrase, but ever since Yun Ruoleng had obtained first place in the Hundred Blossom Banquet, her title of number one beauty had also been taken away from him.


    An Xiang sneered: "Sorry, I forgot, Seventh Miss is the number one beauty in the world, Eldest Miss is just the previous number one beauty and the most talented girl."


    "Puff ¡­" Yun Ruoleng laughed without mercy: "An Xiang, why must you poke at other people''s sore points?"


    "Did your subordinate remember wrongly?" An Xiang''s watery eyes looked at Yun Ruoleng with grievance.


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "Don''t call me that in the future, in case you make a joke out of it."


    "This subordinate will remember."


    Yun Ruoleng and An Xiang kept singing at the same time, completely ignoring the green-faced Yun Yueyu.


    "The two of you ¡­"


    "If Big Sis wants to chat with Leng Er, then I am very sorry. Leng Er still has things to do and needs to go out now. If you are looking for trouble, I think An Xiang really likes to accompany you. " Yun Ruoleng did not wait for Yun Yueyu to finish speaking before he cut her off and smiled.


    "You ¡­"


    "Let''s go!" Yun Ruoleng completely ignored Yun Yueyu. Without waiting for Yun Yueyu''s retort, he walked away.


    Yun Yueyu stomped his feet in anger: "Yun Ruoleng, you little bitch, I want to sue you for deliberately framing the Lan family''s third young miss."


    "Up to you!" Yun Ruoleng did not take Yun Yueyu''s threat seriously. She waved her hand, bringing Peach Blossom and the others and left the Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    Yun Yueyu stood where she was, her slender fingers curled into a fist, as she lightly bit her lips and stared at Yun Ruoleng''s departing back in anger.


    "Eldest Miss, Yun Ruoleng''s status in the palace is getting higher and higher, we should avoid provoking him ¡­"


    "Pah!"


    However, before he could finish speaking, he received a slap on his face. Furthermore, this slap seemed to have vented all of Yun Yueyu''s anger.


    Mo Shu was struck dumb by the slap. He stretched out his hand to cover his face in shock. "Young mistress ¡­"


    "If you dare mention Yun Ruoleng''s position again, I will definitely skin you alive!" Yun Yueyu fiercely threw down those words, then flicked his sleeves and left.


    Mo Shu stood on the spot, his fingers covering his face as he slowly clenched them into a fist.


    Why! No matter how much he treated the eldest young miss, she was still so heartless to him. Since that was the case, then don''t blame her for being heartless.


    Yun Ruoleng had met her early in the morning and was obviously not in a good mood. Furthermore, he had to speak to her greedy father outside, Yun Shicheng, who was initially in a bad mood, about this.


    "Since when did you have a servant girl by your side?" The moment Yun Shicheng saw Yun Ruoleng, he did not ask what Yun Ruoleng was here for, but stared at An Xiang, sizing him up, as if he wanted to know where this person came from.


    Yun Ruoleng unhurriedly said: "A gift from His Highness the Regent. Father, if Leng Er wants to leave the palace, does father have any objections? "


    Yun Shicheng''s face slightly darkened, but when he thought about the presence of His Highness the Regent, which made it difficult for him to flare up, he merely glared at Yun Ruoleng.


    "Got it." After receiving his consent, Yun Ruoleng left without looking back.


    When An Xiang walked out of Yun Shicheng''s Kang Song Courtyard, he began to mutter. "No matter what, he is a Second Rank Minister, how could he be so interested in power?"


    Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly, "Isn''t he always like this? If it were not for his power and influence, how could he have married the Lan family''s daughter, and how could he have ascended from a fourth rank assistant minister to the position of Minister? "


    "Actually, I think his luck is quite good." An Xiang suddenly laughed and said: "Look, Yun Shicheng''s three daughters, the eldest daughter is a witch, although her power is not pure, but she is also a witch respected by tens of thousands of people, the third young miss is also a witch, and furthermore she is the publicly acknowledged Holy Mother of the entire country. Although a saint still needs to be chosen, but according to the purity of her power, there won''t be a second one in the entire Heavenly Awakening Realm."


    "As for you, although you are nothing, your ability to draw makes all the geniuses in the world admire you greatly. You are simply a living treasure mountain. Although the Second Young Master was born from a concubine, he has done a lot of meritorious deeds in the army.


    "Sixth Young Master is a scholar, but his poetry has been praised by the Emperor since he was so young. It can be seen that Minister¡¯s Mansion has reaped quite a lot of benefits in this life, as even children will have a future. "


    "But he''s never been satisfied in his life." Yun Ruoleng scoffed, An Xiang was right, in truth, everyone in the capital was envious of Yun Shicheng, since all of his family members had good prospects, but he was not satisfied, and wanted to court death.


    An Xiang became silent. She did not expect Yun Ruoleng to reply like this, to evaluate a father in such a way.


    Glancing at An Xiang, Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "I know what I said isn''t right. But in fact, I''m actually envious of you. Even though you don''t have a father, you have good brothers who risk their lives to accompany you as you grew up, and I''m not one of them. Because I don''t have any Shaman Power, he threw me in the backyard and ignored me for over ten years.

 C85

    As he finished speaking, Yun Ruoleng''s tone of voice gradually became deeper, and with a bit of heartache, it wasn''t known if it was for himself, or the original Yun Ruoleng.


    "¡­" An Xiang frowned, looking at Yun Ruoleng''s slender back, he could not help but think that she might really be luckier than Yun Ruoleng! Although he didn''t have parents, he had never been abused. During training, he had his brothers helping him, so he rarely received any punishments.


    "Miss, don''t be sad. Peach Blossom will always be with you!" The words that suddenly came out of Peach Blossom made Yun Ruoleng startled, and then he laughed.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed, "Actually, I also thank you for taking care of me all these years." All these years, if not for Peach Blossom accompanying him, Yun Ruoleng thought that she would not be able to hold on until now.


    "Miss, what are you saying!?" It''s only natural for me to do all of this. " Peach Red scratched her head in embarrassment.


    An Xiang looked at the interaction between master and servant, and suddenly remembered what Cui Ying had said when they entered the residence yesterday.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t know who was the best between her and Jun Qingshang at the moment, but her heart was completely set on the brocade workshop.


    Yun Ruoleng swept his eyes across the clothes set up in the shop and felt that the decorations were not enough to attract attention, so he arranged the clothes in a new position.


    "Are there any other stores nearby that you want to sublet or sell?" Yun Ruo asked the two brothers while arranging the positions of the clothes.


    The two brothers looked at each other and shook their heads. "There isn''t a good shop nearby. If Miss wants to find a good one, we''ll keep an eye out for you."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned: "I''m afraid we don''t have enough time. Forget it, I''ll take a look at other places. "


    After looking at the embroidery workshop for a while, Yun Ruo Leng stood up and left. Right now, the clothing store was just a small cooperative store. What she wanted to do the most was to find a shop to open a painting exhibition. The place wasn''t too big, she just needed to display her painting.


    An Xiang followed behind Yun Ruoleng. It was unknown what he was thinking, but when he saw Yun Ruoleng frowning and deep in thought, he could not help but open his mouth, but the words that were just about to reach his mouth choked back.


    "Miss, it''s really not good for us to just aimlessly search like this." Peach Red couldn''t help but sigh at the passersby. When would they be able to find it if they continued to search like this?


    Of course, Yun Ruoleng knew this logic, but how could there be one if he did not look for one? Yun Ruoleng shot a glance at Peach Blossom: "In a hurry, you won''t be able to eat hot tofu. You need to be patient."


    "Oh." Peach Blossom lowered her head and no longer spoke. Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw a sign outside a shop with the word "transfer" written on it. She immediately exclaimed, "Miss, there''s a transfer!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart skipped a beat, and he walked over with Peach Blossom and An Xiang.


    This shop was a very ordinary small teahouse. Yun Ruoleng glanced at the shop, although small, it was very bright, Yun Ruoleng felt that it was very suitable and glanced at Peach Blossom who was behind him.


    After understanding the situation, Peach Blossom discussed with the shop owner to transfer the goods to it. The shop owner was very happy when he heard that someone was buying the shop, "Don''t look at how small this shop is, there''s plenty of space at the back!"


    "Is that so?" Peach Blossom obviously didn''t believe it. This shop was truly small. It was only three meters in diameter and three meters in width. No matter how one looked at it, it seemed small. What could a powerful expert do behind it?


    Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng, then said: "Then why don''t you bring us to the back?"


    "Alright!" In order to sell out his own store, the shop owner was courteous to Yun Ruoleng and the rest.


    After the three of them were brought to the backyard by the shop, Yun Ruoleng finally understood that the back of the shop was indeed very wide, and it looked like a courtyard house. It was not bad being a teahouse, but the luck was bad.


    After looking at the courtyard, Yun Ruoleng rubbed his chin and thought for a while before saying to An Xiang: "What do you think?"


    An Xiang was stunned, she never thought that Yun Ruoleng would ask her that.


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled. "From now on, don''t be distracted by me. Otherwise, you won''t even know if I sell you out next time."


    An Xiang scratched her head in embarrassment.


    "The shop owner offers a price." Yun Ruoleng did not bother about An Xiang anymore after that, and turned to tell the shop owner.


    When the shop owner heard this, he immediately smiled and waved three of his fingers.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head and flicked his two fingers. The shop owner frowned and shook his head. Yun Ruoleng pouted: "Peach Blossom gives the shop owner three hundred silver."


    The shop owner was stunned for a moment before saying unhappily, "I mean three thousand silver taels."


    Yun Ruoleng scratched his chin and laughed: "Is the shop owner bullying a woman? This shop is so small, and even if there was a yard inside, it wouldn''t be that big. Furthermore, it isn''t an antique shop, so why would you want a yard as big as this? "


    Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, after restraining his temper a little, he continued: "Three hundred silver is not too much, if you feel that it''s not enough, we will take our leave."


    "You ¡­" The shop owner did not expect that a shop like his, in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, was only worth three hundred silver. But he was powerless to refute that. It was just as Yun Ruoleng had said, this shop was not easy to sell.


    Yun Ruoleng brought the two servants and left without a word. Seeing this, the shop owner became anxious, "The price is too low, why don''t you add more?"


    "What does the shop owner think the price is?" Yun Ruoleng stopped and turned to look at the shop with a smile that was not a smile.


    The shop owner gestured to one and Yun Ruoleng shook his head, laughing in his heart, this shop owner is too impatient, he reduced the price so quickly.


    Seeing that she was still shaking her head, she felt extremely unhappy. However, her face was filled with a smile, and she said: "There can''t be any less. If there was even less, we wouldn''t have sold it."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at him in the eye, and after considering for a moment, he instructed An Xiang who was beside him: "Pay after all the paperwork is done."


    "Got it!" An Xiang scanned his surroundings and unhappily answered.


    The shop owner happily brought An Xiang to complete the procedures, while Yun Ruoleng stood in the courtyard. His almond-shaped eyes slightly narrowed and said softly: "This shop must be completely rebuilt."


    That''s not a small amount of money!" Peach Red felt uncomfortable as she looked at this place. It was such a lousy place, yet she felt like she was losing out.


    "Not at all." Yun Ruoleng seemed to have seen through her thoughts, he laughed and said, "This is what we need, it gives people a mysterious feeling."


    "But ¡­" Peach Blossom still felt that it was a loss, but Yun Ruoleng had already used his eyes to stop her from speaking any further.

 C86

    "Let''s get someone to clean up this place. As for how to rebuild it, I''ve thought about it. When we get back, we''ll send over the map and get the two brothers'' help." Yun Ruoleng smiled lightly and said to Peach Blossom, "Go tell them about it later."


    "Miss is really swift and decisive." After Peach Red heard this, she couldn''t help but tease him.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows and did not speak anymore. The two of them stayed in the courtyard for a long time until An Xiang came back before they left the shop.


    Yun Ruoleng was in a good mood, he bought the shop at a low price, and had even thought of a way to find someone to follow his instructions and renovate the shop, when he thought about the shop he was about to finish, how could Yun Ruoleng not be in a good mood?


    "Miss, Third Miss has sent someone to call you over." Tao Hong hurriedly ran in from the outside and saw Yun Ruoleng looking at her. She quickly said: "It seems to be because of the reason I brought An Xiang back last night."


    "Got it." Yun Ruoleng felt that he should indeed explain this matter to his sister, or else she would think too much into it.


    Yun Ruoleng carried Peach Blossom and An Xiang and left just like that. As soon as they entered Yun Qingyao''s Jade Bamboo Garden, they obviously felt that something was amiss. Yun Ruoleng''s expression immediately darkened, and as she walked, she surveyed her surroundings, but she did not discover anything wrong. Even when Yun Ruoleng arrived at the entrance of Yun Qingyao''s room, she did not discover anything suspicious.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, was he overthinking it?


    "Seventh Miss, the third young miss is inside the house, you can go in." Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to knock on the door, a head suddenly stuck out from next door as he softly said.


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at the servant who spoke: "Where did Cui Ying go?"


    "Sister Cui Ying went to the kitchen to get some snacks, all the sisters in the courtyard went to play, leaving only this servant here. Third Miss has ordered it, Seventh Miss, you can come in immediately, there is no need to report."


    The little girl was very clever, seeing Yun Ruoleng''s expression darken, she knew that this unfavoured master had a temper, although she was unfavoured, but it was useless as the young miss valued them, as servants, they could not offend her.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head: "Then you can go and busy yourself, I will go inside to see my sister." After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he did not forget to instruct Peach Blossom and An Xiang as he entered Yun Qingyao''s room.


    "Sister is here." Leaning on the bed and reading, Yun Qingyao did not even raise his head, hearing the door open behind him, he only said one sentence, and continued to read.


    Yun Ruoleng casually found a seat and sat down. Looking at Yun Qingyao''s serious expression, he could not help but frown: "Big sister, you should rest up after a while. Reading books will also hurt your mind."


    "I was just bored, so I flipped through a few pages." Yun Qingyao closed the book, turned and said to Yun Ruoleng, "I heard that Cui Ying, that the two of you were very close, and that Your Highness even rewarded you with a servant girl?"


    "I think everyone has misunderstood His Highness." Yun Ruoleng didn''t know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "An Xiang is An Ying''s guard''s only woman, the reason Prince sent her to my side was because at that time, this girl was extremely arrogant, and was even intentionally provoking me. His Royal Highness sent her to my side to demoralize her. "


    Yun Qingyao shook his head disapprovingly: "There are a thousand ways to ruin her spirit. If it wasn''t on purpose, the Prince would not have chosen such an ambiguous method."


    "Anyway, I can''t say for sure." Yun Ruoleng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She did not know how her sister could think of such a thing, to actually think that cold and emotionless man would send someone to protect her.


    Yun Qingyao shook his head helplessly: "I think you''re biased against the Duke. Forget it, I can''t guess your intentions. "


    Seeing that Yun Qingyao did not continue thinking about this matter, Yun Ruoleng was relieved, and said to Yun Qingyao with a smile: The weather is so good today, it is neither hot nor cold, why is big sister staying in the house?


    "It''s just lunch time." Yun Qingyao replied after hesitating for a moment.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, seeing her flushed cheeks, as if she had just woken up, she did not finish the chase, but changed the topic: "Today little sister went out for a trip, to look for a shop on the street, and when I return, I will bring big sister to take a look, that place is not bad, it does not belong to the busy city, nor does it belong to the city outside."


    "What are you trying to do now?" Yun Qingyao was a little surprised, he had heard her mention opening a clothing shop not too long ago, why did she think of opening a shop again today?


    "Sister is just bored, and I''m just earning some dowry for you and me." Yun Ruoleng smirked, "Doesn''t the modern world like my paintings? I''m just taking the opportunity to do some business. "


    After Yun Qingyao heard Yun Ruoleng''s explanation, his brows could not help but furrow.


    "How could that be?" Yun Ruoleng shook her head nonchalantly: "I am careful in everything. Even if there is someone who is jealous, my sister will look for help."


    "True." Yun Qingyao slightly nodded his head, "But don''t be willful in the future. Also, don''t be rude to the Regent."


    After hearing Cui Ying''s report yesterday, Yun Qingyao''s entire heart was filled with worry. This girl had already become so bold that she went to the Regent¡¯s Mansion to behave atrociously, it was also because of the prince''s good temper.


    When Yun Ruoleng heard her sister''s last words, he felt like a flock of crows was flying over his head.


    After returning from Yun Qingyao''s place, they met Yun Yueyu on the road, but the two of them did not clash. After seeing her leave, Peach Blossom curiously asked, "Why aren''t you looking for trouble with me today?"


    "I think it''s An Xiang who is present. I''m afraid that Prince has a bad impression of her." Yun Ruoleng suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with An Xiang staying back. At least he could restrain that bitch Yun Yueyu!


    Tao Hong glanced at An Xiang and muttered: "This is the first time I''ve discovered that you have such uses."


    "I have many uses, unlike you, who only know how to do odd jobs." As a martial artist, An Xiang naturally heard it.


    Peach Red angrily glared at her: "I can at least do household chores, unlike some people who can''t even cook properly."


    "Even An Ying and Wei in the Duke Palaces do not know how to do so." An Xiang did not concede his defeat at all.


    "Enough!" Yun Ruoleng massaged his forehead with a headache. These two enemies, when would they be the true heads!


    Peach Red''s words were completely cut off by Yun Ruoleng. She glared at An Xiang and snorted coldly. An Xiang curled her lips and turned her face away proudly.


    Yun Ruoleng felt a headache just looking at the two of them. Judging from their interactions today, he had to return the goods, or else the Ao Xue Yuan would become restless.


    In Regent¡¯s Mansion''s study, Jun Qingshang was sitting in front of a rosewood desk. Looking at the little Emperor standing in front of him, a trace of tolerance flashed across his eyes. "How did you get out of here?"

 C87

    "If I directly say I''m looking for you, who would dare to not give in?" After the little Emperor finished speaking, he eagerly ran over to Jun Qing Shang''s side, smiling as he asked, "royal uncle isn''t going to Minister¡¯s Mansion today?"


    "Not going." Jun Qingshang rubbed his forehead, looking at the little Emperor with a helpless expression. "You should go back now."


    "No!" The little emperor was very stubborn. He ran away with a thump, afraid that Jun Qingshang would come after him.


    The veins on Jun Qingshang''s forehead were twitching. He had a headache over this little emperor, but no matter how much of a headache he had, he had to send him back. Thinking about it, Jun Qingshang got up from the chair and chased after Yue Yang with big strides.


    "Your Highness, this isn''t good." Before Jun Qingshang could even reach the door, An Ying hurriedly ran in. Without even having the time to greet him, he said, "The emperor has run out of the Duke Palace, he''s threatening to look for Aunt Huang."


    Jun Qing Shang was stunned, and then, as if he had thought of something, his face darkened: "Still standing there? "Come back!"


    Jun Qingshang brought An Ying and chased after him, but discovered that they were actually unable to catch up with the little emperor. What made Jun Qingshang angrier was that the little emperor actually ran even faster when he saw him running along with his men into a small alley.


    "Master ¡­" An Ying could not help but shiver. They lost her again.


    "To the Ao Xue Yuan." Jun Qingshang''s face was as black as a pool of water as he decided to wait.


    At this time, Yun Ruoleng was sitting under a small eucalyptus tree to enjoy the cool, and was in an extremely good mood as he chatted with Peach Blossom: "In the future, don''t always target An Xiang, especially outside."


    Yun Ruoleng really didn''t know how to describe these two little girls.


    "It''s not that this servant is targeting her, but that she always puts on a proud and pampered appearance. This servant just can''t stand watching her act like this." Tao Hong did not want to anger Yun Ruoleng either, but she could not stand An Xiang''s attitude.


    "You have to hold it in when you''re outside." Yun Ruoleng''s face turned cold, "If our own courtyards are not harmonious, it would be very easy for others to find loopholes."


    She pursed her lips, lowered her head, and replied with a muffled sound.


    An Xiang sat not far away from them. Although he couldn''t hear what they were saying clearly, he could roughly guess from the way Peach Blossom would glance at her from time to time.


    Yun Ruoleng swept a glance over Peach Blossom who had been loyal to him all this time, then glanced at An Xiang who was only thirteen years old at the moment. He sighed softly, "In my heart, you have always been my good sister, my right-hand man, and no one can take your place in my heart."


    With red eyes, she looked at Yun Ruoleng, and said half an hour later: "This servant knows what to do, don''t worry Miss, this servant will not be willful anymore."


    Seeing that she looked like she was about to cry, the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth rose slightly: "What are you crying for, silly girl? You and I have been mutually dependent on each other for so many years, I naturally have to treat you very well. Don''t cry anymore, if An Xiang sees it, he''ll laugh at you. "


    As soon as Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, Peach Blossom wiped away her tears with her sleeve. "This servant isn''t crying!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s lips slightly rose: "Yes, why would Peach Blossom cry?"


    "Miss is teasing me again!" Peach Red blushed and ran away. Yun Ruoleng helplessly shook his head, when suddenly, a light sound came from behind him.


    "Who?" An Xiang laid on the table and played with a jade pendant that was of good quality. He suddenly heard a sound and raised his body vigilantly to look in the direction of the sound.


    "An Xiang?" A tender voice sounded, turning around to see that both Yun Ruoleng and An Xiang had frozen in place.


    "Your, Your Majesty... "You ¡­" The corner of An Xiang''s mouth twitched when he saw the group of secret guards behind the little emperor. Did this little emperor sneak out from the palace? An Xiang was not the only one who had such thoughts.


    "Did the emperor sneak out?" Of course, Yun Ruoleng was not as surprised as he was, he only felt flabbergasted for a moment before frowning and commanding in a cold voice, "An Xiang, notify His Highness the Regent."


    "Don''t!" The little Emperor became anxious and immediately explained, "I wasn''t someone who sneaked out of the palace. royal uncle found out that I was out."


    "Then the emperor sneaked over to this subject''s place." Yun Ruoleng told him the truth without hesitation.


    The little emperor curled his lips. "Smart women are not cute at all!"


    "An Xiang! "Go ¡­"


    "Imperial Aunt is the best." The little emperor suddenly jumped into Yun Ruoleng''s embrace and acted like a spoiled child, interrupting her from speaking further.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the brat who had threw himself into his embrace and acted like this, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "Your Majesty, where did this'' imperial aunt ''come from? This subject cannot afford it. "


    This little Emperor was completely different from the Emperor she imagined. He could even act coquettishly and act cutely?


    As expected, being young was different.


    "The Emperor has ruined the reputation of the Seventh Miss." An Xiang really wanted to throw the little emperor out from Yun Ruoleng''s embrace, but because of his identity, he couldn''t! This was simply infuriating!


    "I''ve thought about it." The little emperor simply ignored An Xiang. Raising his head from Yun Ruoleng''s embrace, he said smilingly, "During the new year, I will pass down the decree to marry you to the Seven royal uncle s."


    "Nonsense!" A cold voice suddenly sounded.


    Yun Ruoleng turned around to look at the man standing in the center of the courtyard with the cold air, and subconsciously tightened his arms around the little emperor. The little emperor shuddered, and simply burrowed into Yun Ruoleng''s embrace again.


    When the people in the courtyard heard the voice, they quickly bowed towards the man. Only Yun Ruoleng and the little emperor who were huddled together did not move.


    "Don''t take a kid''s joke seriously. Why are you trying to scare him?" Seeing the little thing carefully sticking its head out as if it felt wronged, Yun Ruoleng frowned, "However, since it''s going to say it like this, the Emperor is no longer a young man. It''s best not to say these words, since one word of yours will bring me and the Prince a lot of trouble."


    The little emperor raised his head and glanced at Yun Ruoleng, then looked at Jun Qingshang, and lowered his head without making a sound.


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes narrowed dangerously, "How much longer does the emperor want to stay in her arms?"


    The little emperor trembled slightly but she did not exit Yun Ruoleng''s embrace. Instead, she cupped her hands and said, "It''s fine if royal uncle doesn''t agree, but I''ll marry myself in a few years."


    "What nonsense!" Jun Qing Shang''s face darkened, he took a step forward, and effortlessly pulled the little Emperor out of Yun Ruoleng''s embrace. "Men, send the Emperor back to his palace."


    "royal uncle ¡­" The little emperor looked at Jun Qingshang with an incomparably bitter and aggrieved expression.


    Jun Qing Shang didn''t give him any face at all, and sent the little Emperor away.


    After had been sent away, Jun Qing Shang''s face darkened as he looked at the innocent expression on Yun Ruoleng''s face. Earlier, she had been saying that "the words of a child are not to be trusted".

 C88

    Furthermore, regarding the word "bestowed marriage", this woman was actually smiling, pretending as if nothing had happened?


    Yun Ruoleng looked at this unknown person and asked: Why is the Prince looking at me like that?


    "What do you think?" This was the first time Jun Qingshang felt so angry towards him, and the other party had an innocent look.


    Yun Ruoleng truly felt that she was wronged, she did not do anything, and attracted the attention of two people who had the most authority in Heaven Awakening.


    One was a child, the other was a cold-hearted bully. She couldn''t do anything but coax him, and without coaxing him, she would even be looked at by those emotionless eyes. She was truly pitiful and helpless.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was thinking what Jun Qingshang wanted to do, Jun Qing Shang suddenly spoke out: "It''s said that you want to open an art exhibition?"


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng looked at him in shock. Shouldn''t we talk about the little emperor?


    "If you need help, just ask An Xiang to come to this king." Jun Qing Shang stared at Yun Ruoleng with his deep and serene eyes, he was completely unable to fathom his intentions.


    "It''s just a small matter, there''s no need to trouble Your Highness to help." Yun Ruoleng slightly raised his eyebrows, not daring to look Jun Qingshang in the eye. This was because his gaze was too serene and deep, causing others to accidentally sink into his gaze.


    Jun Qing Shang didn''t force Yun Ruoleng, but nodded his head and continued: "Your majesty is still young and ignorant, don''t take it to heart. This king will definitely look up to him in the future."


    From his tone, it seemed that the little Emperor was about to run out of luck, but Yun Ruoleng knew that it would be even worse if he begged for mercy on behalf of the little Emperor, so he said: "I do not care, if the Emperor said that there is someone else, it would bring trouble to His Highness, His Highness is right to discipline him."


    Jun Qing Shang''s brows rose slightly, and the aura around him eased up a bit. "I know. I won''t in the future."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, seeing that he was still standing in front of him, with no intention to leave, her elegant eyebrows slightly rose: Your Highness is busy with work, are you not going back?


    "An Ying!" He called An Ying over and said, "Carry the memorials that have not been checked out from the Duke Palaces over here. This king will review them at the Ao Xue Yuan Courtyard today."


    "Wait!" How could Yun Ruoleng sit still? Before An Ying could reply, Yun Ruoleng spoke up to stop him, "The environment of the Ao Xue Yuan is not good, we cannot let His Highness handle the matter quietly.


    Yun Ruoleng chased her away?!


    An Ying subconsciously took a step back. From the moment he started following the King, only the King would chase people away, how would anyone dare to drive this great Buddha away! Seventh Miss Yun is truly a strange person, he isn''t afraid of Duke Wang strangling her to death with one hand.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t know what An Ying was thinking at all. At this moment, she had completely forgotten that the other party was definitely an ice-cold and heartless person, she straightened her neck and continued, "Men and women shouldn''t be intimate with each other. If Your Highness stays in my courtyard, it will affect my reputation.


    An Ying felt his eyelids twitch violently a few times, as though he was afraid that Jun Qing Shang would choke him to death, and would give a look to the silent An Xiang standing at the side.


    However, An Xiang was simply unable to understand An Ying''s gaze, and innocently blinked his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng still did not see An Ying''s hint, and looked at Jun Qingshang firmly.


    Jun Qingshang was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned ugly to the extreme. He gritted his teeth and said, "Very good." It''s really very good! "


    Yun Ruoleng was somewhat surprised that his master was not strangled to death by him. When he came back to his senses, his master had already left in a rage. After giving Yun Ruoleng a meaningful glance, An Ying turned around and quickly chased after him.


    Several days passed in the blink of an eye, and as the day of Yun Qingyao choosing the Holy Maiden approached, Yun Ruoleng could clearly feel that his power was increasing, and the amount of power he had poured into the jade pendant increased. He felt that he was reaching the bottleneck soon.


    This result made Yun Ruoleng extremely happy, and what made her even happier was that Jun Qingshang hadn''t come looking for trouble with her in the past few days.


    "My lady, it was a joyous occasion." Peach Red ran in excitedly. Seeing Yun Ruoleng sitting on the soft bed and fiddling with the Smoky Water Spirit Jade she brought from the auction before, the smile on her face became even wider. "Miss, the shop at the exhibition is almost finished.


    Yun Ruoleng held onto the Smoke Water Spirit Jade in his hand, and paused slightly. "It has already been a few days, it''s time to finish this. Let''s go and take a look tomorrow. "


    "One more thing." Peach Blossom saw that Yun Ruoleng was not looking forward to it and said, "The Regent Hall is down."


    Peach Red thought that Yun Ruoleng would be happy, but when Yun Ruoleng heard the news, his expression immediately turned extremely ugly. "Is it related to me?"


    Peach Red was startled by Yun Ruoleng''s tone, she then explained: "Actually Third Young Miss is right, His Highness the Regent is indeed a good backer, why not Young Miss do as Third Young Miss says?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes instantly turned cold: "I don''t dare to hug such a kind of thigh, so you don''t have to mention this sort of thing in the future."


    Peach Blossom didn''t know why, but her young miss was rejecting the Regent. The Prince was clearly very good to her!


    Peach Blossom couldn''t figure it out, as could Jun Qingshang.


    Looking at Yun Yueyu who had a bashful expression on his face and Yun Qingyao, who seemed to be completely indifferent to the situation, Jun Qing Shang''s beautiful eyes narrowed his eyes.


    "Prince, you said ¡­"


    Jun Qing Shang''s expression was still as cold as ever, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking: "Where is Seventh Miss Yun?"


    Yun Shicheng laughed awkwardly: "I have already sent people to look for her, I am a mischievous girl, I will not be coming over for a while."


    He had been busy these past few days, and it was not because he had so many things to attend to, but because he had idled away, his mind was filled with Yun Ruoleng''s unwillingness to accept this. He wanted to take a look at her, but he could not jump over the wall, so he entered through the main entrance.


    However, Yun Shicheng looked at his unreconciled eldest daughter and then saw his second daughter who was as calm as water. His expression became even more awkward and he immediately ordered someone to rush Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng, on the other hand, directly sent Xiao Si, who was sent by Yun Shicheng, away: "Go back and tell your highness that I don''t have time to play with him, I''ll visit him another day when I have time."


    The servant could only agree as blood dripped from his heart. If the prince heard this, he would probably be angry!


    By then, he would probably be out of luck.


    When the attendant reported everything that Yun Ruoleng had said, Jun Qingshang did not get angry, he only frowned. "Since that''s the case, this king will return to take care of his official business."

 C89

    "Your highness, this subject is sending you off." Yun Shicheng respectfully saw Jun Qingshang out of the Minister¡¯s Mansion, and upon returning to the hall, his expression was somewhat ugly, but he did not say much.


    "Father, daughter will go back first." Yun Qingyao knew that his father was currently angry, so he did not want to stay any longer.


    However, Yun Yueyu did not want to leave. Once Yun Qingyao left, Yun Yueyu noticed that Yun Shicheng''s expression was bad, and said carefully: "Father, Seventh Sister is getting more and more ignorant of the rules, to the point where she even dared to refuse Your Highness. Your highness probably left today because she didn''t like Seventh Sister''s actions. "


    Yun Shicheng swept a glance at his eldest daughter and said, "So what? The Prince has no reaction at all. "


    "Why didn''t father say anything?" Yun Yueyu seized the opportunity to mislead her, "Could it be that you didn''t see the look on his face when he left? If we don''t do something, I''m afraid the prince will really be angry. "


    Yun Shicheng frowned, comparing the look on Jun Qingshang''s face when he entered the door with the look when he left. At the start, he was still a little disbelieving, but at this moment, he completely believed it. As if he was his father, he rubbed Yun Yueyu''s head.


    "Thank you, father, for your praise." Yun Yueyu lowered his head and replied. At a place where Yun Shicheng could not see, the corner of his mouth raised slightly.


    The current Yun Ruoleng did not have any premonition of being schemed against, he sat under the rose tree and quietly listened to the summer wind, the smell of the roses lingering around him, Yun Ruoleng could not help but squint his eyes.


    "Seventh Miss Yun is so relaxed." A ghost-like voice came from behind him, and the surrounding air instantly froze.


    Yun Ruoleng, who was in a half-asleep state, was suddenly jolted awake. He turned his head and looked at the man behind him in shock: "Didn''t you leave already?"


    "Do you really want This King to leave just like that?" Jun Qingshang felt the veins on his forehead throbbing violently. He was really afraid that he would be unable to resist stepping forward and strangling this damnable woman to death.


    "That''s not it either!" Her sixth sense told her to never provoke this regent, who was above ten thousand people, or else she would die miserably. "Father doesn''t like His Highness to see me. Compared to me, father would rather Big Sis be with His Highness. "


    "Hur hur." Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng with a fake smile. This girl really knew how to make things up, but Yun Shicheng did not wish for him to see that little wild cat for real.


    As for this girl''s explanation, he didn''t believe it at all. Even if he didn''t completely understand Yun Ruoleng''s personality, he still understood about seventy to eighty percent of it. If he wanted to see her, how could he not go because of Yun Shicheng?


    Yun Ruoleng was completely terrified and could not help but glare at him.


    "Your Highness doesn''t believe me?" Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang with a wronged expression, and said in a low voice, "Since Your Highness does not believe me, then this little girl has nothing else to say."


    Jun Qingshang glanced at the chair at the side and said coldly: "Yun Ruoleng, do you think this king is blind? You said that you were busy just now, but when This King came in, he saw you lying comfortably on a chair. "


    "Damn it!" Yun Ruoleng immediately acted like he was extremely wronged, and quickly explained, "Just now, my drawing used up a lot of my power, I was resting here."


    Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng with a smile that was not a smile, as if he was saying "Please continue with your performance".


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched, he really could not continue pretending. He said with slight anger: "Just what are you doing here?"


    Jun Qingshang snorted coldly, turned her face away, and no longer spoke.


    "Is Your Highness free recently?" Yun Ruoleng frowned as he felt a headache. Just thinking about how Jun Qingshang would come to Minister¡¯s Mansion and call out to him, he felt a headache. The Minister¡¯s Mansion which had finally calmed down for a few days was once again going to suffer, he did not know who would win this time.


    Jun Qingshang glanced at Yun Ruoleng, suddenly went a little closer, and said in a low voice: "You don''t want to see this king that much?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s face froze for a moment before returning to normal, and said: "Even though Your Highness is a little unreasonable at times, and loved to mess things up, I actually don''t have anything that you dislike, so naturally it''s not like you don''t want to see it."


    "If it''s not that I don''t want to see it, then what is it?" Jun Qingshang''s expression became slightly better, and he continued to ask.


    "Your Highness, do you know that Yun Yueyu is going to suffer again this time? I wonder who will be implicated this time. " Yun Ruoleng sighed lightly, feeling helpless and annoyed. She didn''t believe that this Lord Regent wouldn''t be able to guess the consequences.


    Jun Qingshang''s face darkened when he heard this, and said: "If you don''t like it, you can find any reason to kill me."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang strangely, causing his hair to stand on end, his sword-like eyebrows creased slightly: "Why are you looking at me like that? Is This King wrong? "


    "Yun Yueyu deserves to die." Yun Ruoleng coughed lightly, and said slowly, "I am not a good person, but I am also not the kind of person who would casually find a reason to kill people. I''m going to let her live and watch her slowly be tortured to death by me. That would be interesting, wouldn''t it? "


    She was a person who came from a society ruled by law, how could she casually take someone''s life? No matter what, this was something that the current her could not do.


    But Yun Ruoleng was not a kind person, naturally, Jun Qingshang was not either. After hearing her words, he was stunned for a moment, then the corner of his mouth raised, this little wild cat was truly different from the masses.


    However, Yun Ruoleng was a little helpless. She said this intentionally, in order to let Jun Qingshang feel that she was a woman with a heavy heart, so that they could stay away from her. But now ¡­ What did this subtle smile mean?


    However, Jun Qingshang smiled and said with a low voice, "This king feels very good. That''s what you should do when you work by This King''s side. "


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng smacked him a little, and in the end, said in a somewhat disappointed tone, "Your Highness is really different. If someone else heard these words, they would definitely think I was a person with a venomous heart. "On the contrary, Your Highness encouraged me to do so, so I''m not afraid of teaching this to bad girls."


    Hearing that, Jun Qingshang laughed and did not say a word, he sat for a while and then left.


    Suddenly, Peach Blossom ran towards Yun Ruoleng in panic, but before she could say anything, her voice had already reached her: "Miss, the Master has brought people over!" "Got it." Yun Ruoleng rubbed his temples, he reckoned that this trash of a father must have come because of Jun Qingshang.


    Tao Hong pulled Yun Ruoleng who was about to leave and anxiously said: "Miss, how about you sneak out from the back door! The old master came in full fury this time. Since the eldest young miss is still by his side, I think she''ll probably do something violent to you. Why don''t you stay outside for a while? "


    As Tao Hong spoke, she rushed to the cabinet and took out some silver, before stuffing it into Yun Ruoleng''s hands. She hurriedly instructed, "Rest assured Miss, this servant will definitely not tell Old Master where you went!"

 C90

    Yun Ruoleng was amused and angry at the same time. She could not help but knock on her peach-colored head. If he wants to deal with me, he''ll leave me a back door to escape? "


    "But ¡­"


    "He wouldn''t dare." Yun Ruoleng sneered. Yun Shicheng adored vanity, coveted fame and fortune, and had a good relationship with the Regent, so even if she gave Yun Shicheng ten guts, he still wouldn''t dare to actually use violence against him.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng had said, Yun Shicheng aggressively brought a group of people and barged into the Ao Xue Yuan. Not only did they have Yun Yueyu behind them, they also had First Madam s and Mrs. Luo s.


    Yun Ruoleng walked out from the small courtyard at the back, and upon seeing the situation, he could not help but frown: "Father, are you trying to denounce us?"


    The Mrs. Luo looked at Yun Ruoleng, but Yun Ruoleng turned a blind eye and sneered: "If I were to denounce him, then there''s no need, because His Highness did not say anything. "If Father says too much, it will only make His Highness angry."


    "How dare you!" Without waiting for Yun Shicheng to speak, Yun Yueyu, who was standing at the side, could not watch any longer, "His Highness is the ruler of the dynasty, even the emperor has to be respectful to him. Yun Ruoleng, who do you think you are, to actually say that you don''t see him! If not for father''s sake, His Highness would not have let you off! "


    "What did Missy Yun say?" An Xiang who had disappeared since morning suddenly appeared beside Yun Ruoleng, a look of displeasure flashed across her eyes.


    She was the only one who could bully Yun Ruoleng, what the hell were these people!


    "Miss An Xiang might not know this, but Seventh Sister''s rejection of Your Highness today is already angering Your Highness. Yun Yueyu immediately said. The An Xiang in front of him was someone close to the Regent King. If he said a few words to slander Yun Ruoleng at this moment, perhaps he would be of some use.


    An Xiang tilted his head and swept a glance at Yun Yueyu, and then curled his lips: "When is Your Highness angry? When we just got back to the Duke Palaces, His Highness had said that he would bring Seventh Miss to Lakeheart Pavilion next month to admire the moon! "


    "What?"


    "Is that true?"


    Yun Yueyu and Yun Shicheng asked at the same time. An Xiang nodded and said without hesitation, "It''s true."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the playful An Xiang, suddenly feeling that there was no need for him to stand here, because she had already settled the matter.


    "Then Leng Er must prepare well." Yun Shicheng rubbed his hands together in excitement, and turned to Mrs. Luo to say, "Luo''er, thank you for the hard work during this period."


    Mrs. Luo looked at Yun Ruoleng and saw that she had no reaction, he nodded: "Rest assured Old master, I will take good care of Seventh Miss."


    Yun Shicheng nodded his head in relief, and led the group of people away. Only Yun Yueyu was not willing to stay, but he was dragged away by the First Madam.


    Looking at Yun Yueyu''s unwilling look, Yun Ruoleng sneered: "What a fool."


    "Seventh Miss, His Highness really said that he would be going to the Heart Lakeheart Pavilion in the middle of next month to admire the moon. He was the one who said that before he left." Seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not seem to mind, An Xiang could not help but mentioned it again.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled for a few seconds, then his face changed: "I didn''t hear it."


    "It''s alright, when the time comes, His Highness will personally come to invite you." Seeing that she was being shameless, An Xiang laughed and said.


    Yun Ruoleng was speechless, as expected, those who came out of Regent¡¯s Mansion were all abnormal!


    Yun Ruoleng''s shop officially opened two days before the selection for the Holy Mother. On the first day of business, Yun Ruoleng had people advertise the location of the art exhibition in the capital, thus, on the second day of business was bustling, and many literati came to watch.


    "Mo Zhan!" A white clothed man stood at the entrance of the art exhibition and looked inside the crowded store. His brows slightly furrowed as he turned around to ask the servant behind him, "But why are there so many people entering a newly opened store?"


    "This is Master Leng Yun''s painting exhibition. It is filled with Master Leng Yun''s paintings, I''m guessing that many people have come due to admiration." The attendant explained seriously.


    The Young Master opened the fan in his hand, as if he had thought of something interesting, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "Leng Yun''s works are already so popular, then let''s go take a look as well."


    "But young master, aren''t we going to Regent¡¯s Mansion to pay our respects to the Regent?" The servant looked at the man in confusion. Wasn''t his master anxious to see the Regent yesterday? Why aren''t you in a hurry today?


    "The Regent doesn''t know how to run, so what''s the rush?" The man smiled mysteriously with a gentle and refined handsome face.


    The attendant felt helpless and could only follow along.


    There were indeed a lot of people in the art exhibition, but Yun Ruoleng did not personally come. Even though she was currently sitting in Ao Xue Yuan Academy, her mind was already flying to Mo Zhan.


    "I wonder how the business is doing." Yun Ruoleng sat on the rattan chair in distress. Even though he had spread the news yesterday, it was extremely hard to predict what would happen.


    "I''m also very curious. Should I climb over the wall to take a look?" An Xiang was a limpid and cute girl, but after following Yun Ruoleng, she became more and more unrestrained, because Yun Ruoleng was the one who took care of everything. An Xiang felt that following Yun Ruoleng was very fun, and also free and unrestrained. The two of them would sometimes bicker with each other, and their relationship did not seem like it was between a master and servant anymore.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up. "Why don''t you bring me along?"


    An Xiang looked at Yun Ruoleng in disdain, "You''ve eaten so much lately. I didn''t send you over the wall. "


    "Dark!" "Fragrant!" But An Xiang, this damned girl, would always poke at her sore spot. Yun Ruoleng was so angry that he couldn''t take it anymore!


    An Xiang didn''t wait for Yun Ruoleng''s roar as he climbed over the wall and left the Ao Xue Yuan, leaving Yun Ruoleng alone in the courtyard holding his breath.


    When An Xiang came out of the Ao Xue Yuan, he went straight to Mo Zhan''s place, and from afar, he saw a group of people crowded at the entrance. His eyebrows jumped, and his heart was a little nervous, afraid that something bad was going to happen.


    "Everyone, the seats inside have indeed been filled. Why don''t you come back tomorrow?" The shopkeeper at the entrance was found in the embroidery workshop. This person was called Zhen Jun. He was in his late twenties and was an honest and honest man. The reason why Yun Ruoleng chose him was because, although he was an honest man, he was someone who was qualified to do business.


    An Xiang was speechless when he saw this, there were so many people!


    She had seen Yun Ruoleng''s speed of drawing before, it was simply like a divine art. If one was able to complete the drawing within an hour, it would be as long as a meter, but no one could compare to the drawing, it was just like a living being.


    Not only did she know how to draw ink paintings, but she also knew how to draw sand paintings, sketches, etc. She had never heard of any of these paintings before. In this period of time, Yun Ruoleng had always shut herself up, and the paintings in the shop were also her recent creations.


    If the people of this world were to know that the paintings they sought after with ten thousand gold were driven out by a little girl in an hour, who knows if they would be angered to death.

 C91

    After An Xiang finished looking at the situation, he returned to the Ao Xue Yuan. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was staring at him, her eyes did not even blink as she coldly snorted with arrogance. "You want to know?"


    "Nonsense!" Yun Ruoleng glared at her, she was becoming more and more daring.


    "It''s not impossible to tell you ¡­" An Xiang paused, and then suddenly blinked his eyes and said, "You''re not allowed to get angry after hearing it."


    "With your words, I know what will happen." Yun Ruoleng smiled, waved his hand at her, and said in a profound tone, "Alright, you can go play."


    "¡­" An Xiang instantly felt that his brain wasn''t sufficient. She hadn''t even said anything, yet Yun Ruoleng had already chased her away? An Xiang could not help but look at her a few more times. Seeing that she did not seem to be joking, he could not help but ask: "Do you really not need me to tell you?"


    "Of course, there''s a sea of people inside Mo Zhan. Zhen Jun will definitely be busy with this." Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, provoking An Xiang as he blinked his eyes, looking extremely quick-witted and strange.


    "You ¡­ "How do you know?" An Xiang immediately opened her eyes wide in shock. Could it be because the disappointment on her face wasn''t obvious enough?


    "Although you appeared to be very disappointed, your eyes have deceived you." Yun Ruoleng chuckled, "When you looked at me, your eyes were clearly full of smiles, and I knew that your words would be a lie."


    "Seventh Miss ¡­" Hearing that, An Xiang was stunned, she never thought that Yun Ruoleng was such a meticulous person, he turned and walked out dumbfoundedly, obviously he had not regained his senses yet.


    No wonder His Highness liked this woman. It wasn''t unreasonable! An Xiang felt that he could somewhat understand His Highness.


    With the business matters settled, Yun Ruoleng was in a good mood. She called out to Peach Red and headed towards the Jade Bamboo Garden, but who knew that just as she reached the entrance, she would meet Yun Yueyu who was walking out.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t want to get entangled with her too much, but he didn''t expect Yun Yueyu to extend his hand and block her way. With a good look and a sigh, he asked: "Seventh Sister, are you going to look for Third Sister?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, "Or else? Since little sister is already here, can it be that you''re still going to visit big sister? "


    "You!" Yun Yueyu gnashed his teeth in anger, but his expression suddenly relaxed, and he sighed lightly: "That''s right, third sister is sick. You should come visit often. "My third sister was talking about you just now!"


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes: "Third Sister is a witch and has always been in good health. How could she be sick? Even if Big Sis doesn''t like Third Sis, there''s no need for you to say such vicious words! "


    "Sister''s words really hurt sister." Yun Yueyu sighed with an injured expression, "But third sister is really sick, she''s just not willing to speak of it."


    Yun Ruoleng''s cold eyes swept across Yun Yueyu, and when he saw her serious face looking at him without the slightest pretense, his heart trembled. Suddenly, he remembered the scene when he came to Jade Bamboo Garden not long ago, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.


    Yun Yueyu saw that Yun Ruoleng had reacted, a pleased look flashed across his eyes, he then waved his hand: "You can go in to take a look."


    Yun Ruoleng stared coldly at the leaving Yun Yueyu, his eyebrows knitted together.


    Compared to Yun Yueyu who was fighting like a chicken when he saw him, the Yun Yueyu today was especially strange. Was Yun Qingyao really sick?! Yun Ruoleng''s face changed as he walked in.


    The courtyard was the same as last time, it was so quiet that he did not seem to feel any anger. Yun Ruoleng became even more suspicious of Yun Yueyu''s words, and directly walked towards Yun Qingyao''s room and knocked on the door.


    "Who is it?" The person in the room didn''t make a sound. Instead, a young maid in the room next door stuck her head out and asked softly.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze fell on the servant girl and asked coldly: "Are the third sister not here?"


    "Seventh Miss." When the servant saw that it was Yun Ruoleng who asked Yun Qingyao, her expression became anxious, "Third young miss, Third young miss is resting in her room, why, how about you come later?"


    Lunch? You want to take a nap at this point? Yun Ruoleng glanced at the tightly shut door, in the end, he did not force his way in.


    Peach Blossom who was silently following Yun Ruoleng suddenly opened her mouth: "Miss, Third Miss seems to really be sick. In the past, the Third Miss had never taken a nap at this hour. Moreover, it''s really too early for this hour''s afternoon nap. "


    Yun Ruoleng did not speak, and her footsteps became heavier. She did not believe that Yun Yueyu would ask a doctor to treat Yun Qingyao''s illness, and in order to confirm whether Yun Qingyao was really sick, Yun Ruoleng decided to discuss this matter with Yun Shicheng, but was told that Yun Shicheng was not at the manor right now.


    It was only then that Yun Ruoleng remembered that Yun Shicheng was not Xiu Mu today, and would probably be back at night. Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to ask Tao Hong to go out and get a doctor, he saw Rui Ling, the servant girl beside Yun Yueyu, bringing a white haired old man and a servant who was carrying a box towards the backyard.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, she turned and asked: "Who is that?"


    "That''s the doctor in charge of the Hundred Herb Hall. It''s said that this person''s medical skills are very high. Does Miss need him to treat Third Miss?" Peach Blossom seemed to have thought of something as she said in surprise, "Eldest Miss couldn''t be inviting this doctor to treat Third Miss, right?"


    Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "The mother and daughter pair can''t wait for the third sister to die, how can they invite someone to treat her? Even if that''s the case, I''m afraid they have no good intentions. "


    The more Yun Ruoleng thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. He turned around and followed Rui Ling.


    Yun Ruoleng followed along the way and only stopped when she saw the three entering the Hibiscus Courtyard. She turned around and said to Peach Blossom Red: "It''s been a long time since we went to pay our respects to First Madam. Since we''ve come today, then let''s enter to pay our respects!"


    After Tao Hong heard this, she pulled at Yun Ruoleng with some hesitation: "Miss ¡­"


    "If we don''t get into the tiger''s den, how can we get into the tiger''s den?" Yun Ruoleng did not change his decision because of the trouble and hurried inside.


    Seeing this, Peach could only sigh and follow closely behind her.


    Because they did not say they would come in advance, when they saw Yun Ruoleng, the servants in the Hibiscus Courtyard were all surprised. Some even quickly ran away. Yun Ruoleng did not even glance at her as he walked directly to the main hall.


    "Is Seventh Sister here to pay respects to First Madam?" Yun Yueyu did not seem to be surprised, he only put on a face of a good older sister, and smiled as he asked.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed, and asked First Madam: "It''s been a long time since I last greeted this First Madam, I wonder how he is doing?"


    First Madam smiled and said, "Everything is fine except for falling asleep."


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at the doctor and said: "No wonder you invited a doctor over. First Madam''s body is more important, Leng Er will take a moment, please continue the treatment.

 C92

    The First Madam smiled slightly, he started to have his pulse checked by the servant girl beside him. Yun Yueyu looked at the First Madam worriedly, and after seeing the doctor let go of her hand, he quickly asked: "Doctor Bai, is my mother well?"


    "It''s fine. It''s just that because the weather is too hot, there''s a fire inside. It''ll be better to just prescribe some fire medicine." Doctor Bai stroked his beard and replied with a smile, "Miss can just send someone to follow me back to get the medicine."


    Yun Yueyu heaved a sigh of relief, took a look at First Madam, and continued to speak with the doctor: "I still have a little sister, her mental state hasn''t been working well recently. Since mother is fine, I''ll have to trouble Doctor Bai to take her pulse."


    Although she did not know why Yun Yueyu wanted to say it, since Yun Yueyu had already opened his mouth, she could not say anything, and spoke to Peach Blossom who was behind her: "Bring Doctor Bai to the Jade Bamboo Garden to get your pulse from third sister, and also the silver taels for your diagnosis."


    "Yes." Peach Blossom replied and made a gesture to invite the doctor.


    Doctor Bai nodded towards Yun Ruoleng before leaving the main hall with his servants.


    "Since mother is fine, then let''s go to Third Sister''s place to take a look." Yun Yueyu smiled slightly and reached out to grab Yun Ruoleng''s hand.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly turned his body, ignoring Yun Yueyu''s slightly black face, and nodded in agreement. "I am indeed more worried about third sister''s sickness, so I won''t disturb First Madam''s rest any longer."


    He thought that the First Madam would feel disdain after hearing his words, but he never thought that the First Madam would be especially kind today. He nodded at Yun Ruoleng, "Go, speak your mind if you need anything."


    "Thank you, First Madam." The more it was like this, the more Yun Ruoleng felt that there was a problem, but he was unable to find the crux of the problem.


    Yun Ruoleng only felt as if he was being roasted on fire, his brows knitted slightly, and his steps grew larger. When Yun Yueyu, who had followed her out, saw this, he thought that Yun Ruoleng was worried about Yun Qingyao''s sickness and became anxious, so he immediately comforted her: "Sister, no need to worry, Doctor Bai''s medical skills are really good, even the Third Marquis has praised you."


    "Is that so?" As Yun Ruoleng walked, he wondered if he should go find a doctor for Yun Qingyao to see. He was always worried about the person Yun Yueyu invited, afraid that she would bribe him.


    "Of course, because he was praised by the Third Marquis, Hundred Herb Hall''s business got better and better." Yun Yueyu paused for a moment, and continued, "I''m afraid in the entire capital, there isn''t a doctor better than him."


    "I''ve heard that all the imperial doctors in the palace are very powerful. Could it be that Doctor Bai is even more powerful than them?" Hearing this, Yun Ruoleng probed.


    "The imperial doctors in the palace have their own strengths. Besides, how many people can those doctors treat every year? Medicine is something that relies on experience. " Yun Yueyu explained with a light smile.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t speak anymore, but he had already decided in his heart that he would ask An Xiang to investigate this doctor Bai. After that, he would find a better doctor to check Yun Qingyao''s pulse.


    The two of them entered the main hall of the Jade Bamboo Garden without saying much. Cui Ying, who was standing at the door, subconsciously frowned when he saw Yun Yueyu and Yun Ruoleng walk in side by side, then took a glance at the hall and blessing the two of them, "Third young miss heard that the Seventh Miss had sent a doctor to treat her when she just woke up. She is still very suspicious."


    Yun Ruoleng pulled Cui Ying to the side and asked softly, "How is Third Sister? "How long has this been going on?"


    "Third Miss has always been in good health, which is why she became ill the last time you came. In the beginning, no one paid much attention to it. It was only yesterday morning when the third young miss looked quite sickly, and this servant had to go out and get a doctor. "


    "What did the doctor say?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, he had a bad feeling about this.


    "The doctor said that Miss is not ill at all. Perhaps it''s because the weather is too hot, or perhaps Miss''s illness is a hidden disease."


    Yun Ruoleng thoughtfully looked at Yun Yueyu who had just walked in. Could it be just a coincidence?


    "Yesterday''s young miss is also here." Seeing Yun Ruoleng staring at Yun Yueyu, Cui Ying suddenly understood why the Seventh Miss knew her young miss was sick, and quickly explained, "The young miss just happened to hear what the doctor said."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded at Cui Ying: "No wonder. This time, I think it''s because I told you to keep quiet! Forget it, let''s go in and take a look. "


    Cui Ying replied and followed Yun Ruoleng into the main hall, where he heard Doctor Bai say: "Miss has a hidden disease on her body, she needs to be treated in time."


    "How?" Not allowing Yun Qingyao to speak, Yun Yueyu took the initiative to ask, "Do you need any valuable medicinal ingredients?"


    "This hidden disease will become more and more difficult to cure as the power of the Magus World grows stronger. It''s not that difficult to find a medicinal plant, but the guidance of that medicine might be a little harder to find." Doctor Bai looked at Yun Qingyao with difficulty.


    Yun Qingyao lowered his head and did not make a sound, but after hearing this, he could not help but ask: "Is it something that could not be found in the capital?"


    "Let alone the capital, even the entire Heavenly Awakening Realm would not be easy to find." Doctor Bai looked deeply at Yun Ruoleng, and then sighed.


    No matter how ugly Yun Ruoleng''s expression was, it was not because it was hard to find and he was afraid of paying, but because he knew very well that he could not find this medicine.


    It was like a drowning man waiting to die.


    "Then where is it?" Yun Ruoleng tried to ask.


    Doctor Bai shook his head with some regret. "Legend has it that the Crimson Pearl Grass can cure injuries, hidden ailments, and other ailments. I''ve only read about it in books and haven''t really seen it."


    "Crimson Pearl Grass?" Yun Ruoleng was confused. This was the first time she had heard of this in her two lifetimes, and it sounded very powerful.


    "It''s not that there are none, it''s just that they don''t grow in the capital." Yun Qingyao who had been maintaining his silence all this while suddenly spoke, "There is this herb on Saint Wu Mountain, but it lives in a place with the densest and purest spirit energy, so normal people would not dare enter. Therefore, this medicinal herb has become a legend. "


    "Yes!" "That''s exactly the case. That''s why I said that there is no rule of law for this disease of yours." Dr. White could not help but sigh in his heart. It was said that the Third Miss of the Minister¡¯s Mansion was the future Holy Mother, and now that she had such a hidden ailment in her heart, she would probably not be able to be the Holy Mother anymore.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, she had pure Shaman Energy in her body, if she went there herself, people would definitely know about it, but if she did not go ¡­ Yun Ruoleng glanced at Yun Qingyao, and saw her lowered her head as if she was thinking about something.


    After sending Doctor Bai off, Yun Ruoleng sat beside Yun Qingyao and accompanied her to speak for a while before leaving.

 C93

    "Peach Blossom, prepare to go to Sacred Martial Mountain tomorrow." The first thing Yun Ruoleng said after returning to the Ao Xue Yuan was to let Peach Blossom pack.


    Peach Blossom''s footsteps paused, "Miss, your Shaman Energy can enter the Sacred Martial Mountain?"


    "I don''t know!" Yun Ruoleng pursed her lips, "If you don''t go and give it a try, how will you know what the result will be?"


    Peach Blossom immediately became anxious: "What if we can''t do it? If the two types of spiritual energy do not fuse, then your body will explode and you will die after absorbing it. "


    "I can give it a try, as long as it''s not too late." Yun Ruoleng laughed without a care, "If I don''t try, I will regret it for the rest of my life."


    She knew what her young mistress meant. Her elder sister had been protecting her since childhood, and now that she was sick, she was her only hope. If she did not give it a try, she would truly regret it for the rest of her life.


    Because he was going to travel far, in order to not arouse suspicion, Yun Ruoleng invited Jun Qingshang to the Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    Jun Qingshang on the other hand, also cooperated, looked at Yun Shicheng and said: "This duke has recently found a good place to visit and is here to invite Seventh Miss out for a stroll.


    Yun Shicheng was very excited! He unceremoniously sold his daughter out, "It''s good that Your Highness likes her, I''ll take her as long as I want." Yun Shicheng really wished for Jun Qingshang to directly marry Yun Ruoleng back!


    "Very well, Lord Shang Shu can go and invite them over." Jun Qingshang sat in the main seat and smiled slightly.


    Yun Shicheng nodded his head, then called for Yun Ruoleng to pack up.


    Originally, Yun Ruoleng had packed up most of his things. In order to not arouse suspicion, he stayed in his room for a while longer before coming out. Before he left, he specially went to the Jade Bamboo Garden to pass a letter to Cui Ying.


    Yun Ruoleng came to the main hall and saw Yun Shicheng fawning over his words, while Jun Qingshang acted as if he did not care at all, upon seeing Yun Ruoleng''s arrival, he instructed him to serve the Duke properly, and then left with a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows and followed Jun Qingshang out of the room. As soon as he stepped out of the house, he expressed his thanks: "Thank you very much. I don''t know when he''ll return, but I hope that His Highness can help me cover my tracks. "


    "Sure." Jun Qingshang replied without hurry.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, wasn''t he too easy to talk to today? Could there be any other requirements?


    Sure enough, Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, the light of the beautiful eyes appeared and said: "But you have to help everyone."


    "What kind of help?" Yun Ruoleng''s heart tensed up, he felt that there was absolutely nothing good about Jun Qingshang opening his mouth. A matter that even a great Regent couldn''t solve, wouldn''t it be difficult to rise to the heavens?


    "There''s no rush. You''ll know when you return to the manor." After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, she leaned on the carriage and pretended to sleep. Yun Ruoleng was anxious from his words, the distance from Minister¡¯s Mansion to Regent¡¯s Mansion was only two streets, and she had been on tenterhooks the entire way.


    When it came to Regent¡¯s Mansion, Yun Ruoleng immediately understood what this so-called help was. Her originally delicate face was now twisted into a knot: "Your Highness, are you sure you want me to embroider?"


    "Does This King seem to be joking?" Jun Qingshang picked up a piece of handkerchief and threw it on Yun Ruoleng''s body, then said sinisterly, "Embroidered until this king is satisfied, then you can go and do what you want."


    "But I''ve never done it ¡­" Yun Ruoleng took the cloth and his face immediately turned black, wasn''t he deliberately making things difficult for her?


    "It doesn''t matter, the little girl beside you is pretty skilled. Just follow me and you''ll be fine." Jun Qingshang did not give in at all, "Don''t forget that you promised to exchange with this king at the same price."


    "Can I have another one?" Yun Ruoleng really wanted to throw the handkerchief in his hand onto his face.


    But she only had the heart but not the guts.


    "If you don''t want to embroider a handkerchief, you can embroider a scented sachet. Choose one of the two options. Which one do you want to choose?" Seeing that she looked like she was about to explode, Jun Qingshang laughed, "This is my biggest concession. If you don''t agree, I can only send you back to Minister¡¯s Mansion."


    "Don''t!" Yun Ruoleng was immediately discouraged, she had a request to ask of others, so she could not be angry, but after Yun Ruoleng comforted himself, he nodded his head shamelessly: "I will learn! But I''ll only do it once. If I can''t, can I wait until I get back? "


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang smiled and nodded, he did not continue making things difficult for her.


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng nod his head in satisfaction, and got people to send Jun Qingshang out. In order to not be suspected, Yun Ruoleng had to spend the night on Regent¡¯s Mansion, although the people''s atmosphere of the Heaven''s Enlightenment was open, but it was not so open that a man and woman could live together alone.


    Once the matter of Yun Ruoleng entering the Regent¡¯s Mansion was found out by others, it would cause a huge commotion, because the Regent King was not someone who was close to women, and had long become a household name in the capital.


    Yun Ruoleng knew that this matter would happen in a month''s time. Currently, in order for Yun Ruoleng to leave the capital earlier and go to the Sacred Witch Mountain to gather herbs, he was fighting by night.


    In the study, Jun Qingshang faced the window and looked at the lights coming from the Water Spirit Pavilion. The beautiful beautiful eyes squinted: "How is the investigation?"


    "Today, Hundred Herb Hall''s Doctor Bai went to ask for the Yun family''s third young miss'' pulse. He seemed to have an underlying disease, so he needed the Crimson Pearl Grass as a medicine guide. I''m afraid that the reason Seventh Miss Yun left the capital was for the Crimson Pearl Grass."


    Jun Qingshang''s face instantly darkened, "How can we gather the Scarlet Pearl Grass from Saint Witch Mountain so easily? Isn''t she afraid that it was Yun Yueyu who set this trap up? "


    "It should be true." After An Ying told him about Yun Qingyao asking for a doctor for the past few days, he looked at his master''s gloomy and unreadable gaze and felt a little apprehensive. Could it be that his master wanted to stop Seventh Miss Yun from leaving the capital?


    "Forget it, send someone to follow her. Unless it is absolutely necessary, no one is allowed to take action. " Jun Qingshang felt that even if it was a trap, he would not stop Yun Ruoleng. If he did not let her suffer a little, she would probably be foolish for her entire life.


    An Ying heaved a sigh of relief. If his master really went to stop Seventh Miss Yun, it would not be as simple as a cold war. If Yun Qingyao had anything good to do, Seventh Miss Yun would hate his master for the rest of his life.


    After An Ying left, Jun Qingshang looked at the faint shadow that could be seen from the window of Yun Ruoleng''s room, and his gaze darkened by quite a bit.


    Yun Ruoleng spent an entire two hours embroidering an orchid on his handkerchief. Although it was called an orchid, he couldn''t tell at all that it was an orchid. Peach Blossom who was standing behind her couldn''t help but twitch her mouth when she saw her young miss''s craftsmanship. Her entire face wrinkled as she asked, "Miss, what did you just embroider?"


    "Orchid!" Yun Ruoleng frowned, "Didn''t I tell you at the beginning?"


    Peach Blossom opened her mouth, but didn''t want to hurt her young miss anymore. She lightly sighed: "How about we make another one, don''t even mention how angry His Highness the Regent will be if he sees it, even if the nanny saw it they would not be able to resist scolding him ¡­ Say it. "

 C94

    Yun Ruoleng placed the handkerchief on the table, rubbed his forehead and said: "I will not be doing it, go to sleep, I still need to rush back tomorrow!"


    "But how can we report this to the Prince?" Peach Blossom saw her young miss climb onto the bed and completely ignore her. She became completely dazed. She felt that her young miss was just being perfunctory. If the prince saw her, he would definitely not let her go out.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t know what her servant was thinking, she really didn''t want to see the embroidery anymore. When she saw it, she felt a headache, and she also felt that Jun Qingshang was just teasing her.


    If it wasn''t bullying, then what was it for?


    Yun Ruoleng slept soundly. Due to the change in location, he did not sleep soundly the whole night.


    On the morning of the next day, when Yun Ruoleng woke up, the sky was still dark. Because he wanted to leave the capital without anyone noticing, Yun Ruoleng bade farewell to Jun Qingshang early in the morning.


    When Jun Qingshang took out the handkerchief that belonged to Yun Ruoleng, his face was so dark that it seemed to be dripping with water.


    "I didn''t lie to you." Yun Ruoleng looked at the handkerchief in Jun Qingshang''s hands, feeling wronged, "This is my first time taking out a needle and thread, look, my hands are pierced."


    "You ¡­" Jun Qingshang didn''t believe it at all, but her eyes still unwittingly looked at the pair of pure white and flawless hands, and her originally white fingers became slightly red and swollen.


    Jun Qingshang was startled for a few seconds, his expression became slightly warmer, but this handkerchief was still unable to enter his eyes. Jun Qingshang coldly snorted. "This time, I''ll let you go, and when I return, I''ll embroider one of them and send it to the Duke''s Mansion."


    "Yes!" "Yes, yes." Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, afraid that he would not let him go, and said quickly, "It''s getting late, I will be leaving first."


    After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, she left Jun Qingshang''s side like an arrow that had just left the bow, but before she could leave, she was pulled back by Jun Qingshang: "This king said you can leave?"


    "..." Your Highness still has matters to attend to? " Yun Ruoleng was getting impatient, he turned and glared at Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang released the fingers that were grabbing onto Yun Ruoleng''s collar and coughed lightly: "It''s still early, it''s not too late to set off with breakfast."


    Yun Ruoleng really wanted to reject, but before she could do so, Jun Qingshang had already opened his mouth: "An Ying."


    With that, a group of women in light green dresses walked in, each of them carrying a red lacquer tray. Yun Ruoleng glanced at the servants from the Regent¡¯s Mansion, and asked with some curiosity: "Are there any maids in the Duke Palaces? I came here twice, but why haven''t I met him yet? "


    "That ¡­" An Ying explained in a slightly awkward manner, "Your highness doesn''t like to see girls flitting around in front of your eyes, so when you have nothing to do during the day, Your Highness prevents these maids from leaving the backyard and only when it''s time to eat, will they appear in the front courtyard."


    Yun Ruoleng took a glance at the expressionless Jun Qingshang, his almond-shaped eyes slightly raised.


    "You talk too much." A certain prince frowned in displeasure and said coldly.


    An Ying started to regret in his heart. He knew that he shouldn''t have explained it.


    Yun Ruoleng curled his lips, turned around, and sat down on the table. Without waiting for Jun Qingshang, he picked up the chopsticks and started to eat breakfast.


    It had to be said that the Regent¡¯s Mansion''s breakfast was rich and nutritious, and there were more than ten things in a single breakfast.


    Yun Ruoleng nibbled on his chopsticks lightly as his gaze landed on a plate of hot crystal dumplings.


    "Why aren''t you eating?" When Jun Qingshang sat down, he saw that the lady who was just eating was staring at the crystal dumpling in a daze, and asked curiously: "Are these dumplings not suitable for your appetite?"


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng returned to her senses and continued to enjoy the rich breakfast. She did not have time to chat with Jun Qingshang, and she did not know how much work it would be to gather more ingredients on her journey here.


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was only focused on eating and did not care about him at all, Jun Qingshang was slightly unhappy in his heart. Thus, the originally quiet room was instantly filled with cold air, Yun Ruoleng subconsciously frowned, and raised her head to look suspiciously at the sulking Jun Qingshang, and asked: "Why aren''t you eating?"


    Jun Qingshang who received the attention snorted coldly, he picked up the chopsticks and started to eat. It was unknown if it was because Yun Ruoleng was there, but he felt that today''s breakfast had a lot of flavor.


    After eating breakfast, Yun Ruoleng turned to Jun Qingshang and said with a smile, "I''m leaving."


    Jun Qingshang''s hands paused for a moment, his face darkened: "Go!"


    After receiving his consent, Yun Ruoleng happily left Jun Qingshang''s side. After returning to the Water Spirit Pavilion, he packed everything up and left the Regent¡¯s Mansion together with Peach Blossom.


    "Miss, we came out, but we didn''t know where the Saint Wu Mountain was." Peach Blossom sat on the carriage gloomily as she watched the capital city get further and further away from them. She felt reluctant to part with them.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled mysteriously and took out a piece of parchment from his robes and laid it on the carriage''s table. "The southern part of the Tian Qi Kingdom, Jing Cheng, is at the foot of the Sacred Witch Mountain. We will leave from the southern gate, and after going through the six capital cities, it will take us ten days to get there in a hurry."


    "I''m afraid we don''t have time to eat properly these days, so when we go to the next city later, we''ll prepare some dry food and water, some fruits with high vitamins and some vegetables that are not easy to rot. Maybe we''ll have to stay out the night."


    "Where did this come from?" Peach Red looked at the piece of parchment that suddenly appeared in front of her in surprise. Her eyes were fixated on the place that had been marked with a red circle.


    "This morning I went to find His Highness, he gave me universal access." Yun Ruoleng was still very grateful to Jun Qingshang in his heart. As a person who was completely unfamiliar with the Heaven''s Initiation terrain, being able to help him heal his wounds in an hour was truly beneficial to her.


    "Oh." Peach Red looked at Yun Ruoleng with an understanding look. She said it like that, since young miss had read all sorts of books recently, but she had never read anything related to military geography before. How could she understand it so well?


    "How much silver do you have?" Yun Ruoleng did not know what the servant was thinking, and suddenly asked.


    Peach Blossom was startled, she handed the bag over to Yun Ruoleng: "I brought more servants with me when I was out, is it enough?"


    "Three hundred silver taels?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, and threw it at Peach Blossom with disdain, "Luckily I''ve fully prepared everything."


    After saying that, Yun Ruoleng took out a thousand taels of silver and a few pieces of five hundred taels of banknotes, and casually gave Peach Blossom a few notes, "I don''t know if it''s a blessing or a misfortune to be out here, it''s fine to bring more with me. Take some of the silver from your body, I''m sure of this silver, if we leave each other, you can return to the capital first."

 C95

    Peach Blossom may be simple at times, but when it was important, she was especially sensitive. After hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, she rejected his silver notes on the spot: "Miss said it was unlucky, why would this servant be split with you!"


    Yun Ruoleng looked at her seriously, and after a long while, he stuffed the silver notes into her arms and said with a straight face: "Take these, it''s good that they are not scattered. If they are scattered, then think of a way to go back."


    What was the most important thing for an outsider? Of course it''s money. Isn''t there a saying that money can make a fool out of itself? Yun Ruoleng felt that now that he was rich, even if the two of them were to be separated, they would have a chance to reunite.


    Tao Hong felt that Yun Ruoleng''s words made sense, and continued to accept them. However, Peach Blossom carefully put her away. To her, it was simply unnecessary.


    After a day of travelling, when it was almost dusk, Yun Ruoleng''s carriage entered Yang City, which was closest to the capital.


    "Let''s find a place to rest for the night and hurry back tomorrow." Yun Ruoleng looked at the slightly exhausted Peach Blossom Red, and couldn''t bear to tell the coachman what was going on.


    The coachman also felt that he was exhausted, and the horses also needed to rest. Thus, after hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, he did not say anything else and directly went to find an inn to sleep.


    Within the Minister¡¯s Mansion''s Hibiscus Courtyard, Yun Yueyu was currently accompanying First Madam for dinner. At this moment, Rui Ling hurriedly ran in, bowed to the two of them and said, "This servant went to the Ao Xue Yuan to ask around. I heard that the Regent has brought Seventh Miss out of the city to play, and won''t be back for about a month."


    "What?" Yun Yueyu was so shocked that he couldn''t even hold onto his chopsticks properly. After he reacted, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Who said that?"


    "A rough old woman in charge of cleaning the Ao Xue Yuan." She paused for a moment before continuing, "However, Master seems to have known about this matter since long ago. Yesterday afternoon, Mrs. Luo even specially packed things for Seventh Miss, I''m afraid that this matter is true."


    "That vixen!" Yun Yueyu was so angry that he directly threw away the chopsticks in his hand, completely without the appearance of a lady from a noble family.


    First Madam frowned: "Yu''er, don''t be impatient!"


    "Mother, Yun Ruoleng has already gone out of the capital to play with the Regent King alone, how can I be safe?"


    "It''s not like the Regent doesn''t have women around." The First Madam was much calmer than Yun Yueyu and said indifferently, "Yun Qingyao just got diagnosed and was taken away by the Regent King. Don''t you think there''s something fishy about this?"


    Yun Yueyu finally calmed down a little when she heard this. She squinted her eyes and asked, "Is she going to ask His Highness to find her Crimson Pearl Grass?"


    "It''s not impossible." First Madam slightly nodded his head. The Regent had taken away the people he had brought at the wrong time. Of course, if one did not think about it carefully, no one would notice this problem.


    "Go to the Regent¡¯s Mansion and find out if there''s any carriages leaving the Duke Palace today. When did they leave the carriage and which way they went?" After the First Madam''s reminder, Yun Yueyu finally reacted and quickly arranged for Rui Ling to look into it.


    After Rui Ling left, Yun Yueyu no longer had the appetite to continue eating. First Madam glanced at his daughter, and seeing that she was so impatient, he shook his head helplessly. "You have to be calm in everything, it''s not good at all for you to be in such a hurry."


    "But mother, no matter what happens, it proves that Yun Ruoleng has a certain level of power at Your Highness''s side, if not she would never be able to say it." How could Yun Yueyu not be anxious?


    If Yun Ruoleng really had something with the Regent King, then her position would really be in danger.


    Seeing that his own daughter did not take his words to heart, First Madam frowned. He started to worry about his daughter''s future.


    Not long after Rui Ling left, she came back with a piece of news, "Seventh Miss left the palace together with the prince. However, two people each took a carriage, leaving from the north gate."


    "Go down." "After First Madam summoned her spirit, she looked at Yun Yueyu who looked like he was about to explode," So what if she went out with the Prince? She''s not a witch, she has no right to marry the Prince. "


    Yun Yueyu''s eyes darkened in anger. "But I can''t do anything about Your Highness''s liking, Mother, don''t you think so? If the Regent is unwilling, who will dare to force it on him? "


    "What do you want to do?" First Madam had a bad premonition, he always felt that his daughter was about to do something big.


    Yun Yueyu''s eyes flashed with killing intent, but was quickly concealed, and knew: "I''m fine, just quietly rest."


    First Madam opened his mouth, but the words were stuck in his throat. He felt that it was good for Yun Yueyu to be quiet so he wouldn''t commit any foolish acts.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng, who did not know if she was being watched, slowly woke up. Recently, she could feel the obvious changes in her body.


    However, because he did not prepare many things in the capital, Yun Ruoleng specially bought some dry rations and fruits and vegetables in Yang City.


    Yang City was not as prosperous as the capital, but it had its own unique folk style. As Yun Ruoleng walked along the streets of Yang City, she suddenly realised a problem that she could not understand, and that was that she could not find a single beggar in the streets.


    One had to know that there were a lot of beggars in the capital. They could be found anywhere, let alone everywhere.


    "Girl, buy some rouge!"


    Yun Ruoleng stopped in front of a rouge shop, looked at the colorful rouge shop, and couldn''t help but frown. She didn''t like these things, but Peach Blossom liked them, and since she had nothing to buy today, she would give Yun Ruoleng a box of rouge as a reward.


    "What color do you like?" Yun Ruoleng turned around and smiled at Peach Blossom who was behind him, "I don''t understand these things, pick your own medicine if you like."


    Peach Red looked at Yun Ruoleng and then looked at the man selling stuff: "Miss, aren''t we going to buy things for our journey?"


    "I''ll buy some rouge for you, too."


    Peach Blossom was moved to tears when she saw Yun Ruoleng''s nonchalant look. Her young miss was the type that was cold on the outside but hot on the inside, although she didn''t say it out loud, she was still concerned for you.


    Yun Ruoleng was speechless, he threw a piece of silver to the stall owner and turned around, the stall owner weighed the silver in his hand and laughed, then said to Peach Blossom who had yet to react: "Miss, to have such a good master, how many lives of fortune have you had!"


    Peach Blossom replied with a big smile and followed up. In her heart, she agreed with the hawker''s words. Her young miss was really great. Although she was like a different person sometimes, she had always been kind to her since she was young!


    Yun Ruoleng stayed in Yang City for half a day with Peach Blossom.

 C96

    "Miss, in front of us is Peixian. There is a water route from Peixian to Jingcheng, it can shorten the time, but it won''t be as bumpy."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up: Who said that?


    "Today, when I went to buy snacks, the dim sum boss told me." Peach Blossom held her head in thought for a moment before replying, "It is said that there are two boats per day. If we were to go at this time, we would be able to catch the boat from this afternoon."


    "Then let''s go to Peixian." The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly. After these few days of calm, riding on the boat was indeed much more comfortable than riding on a horse carriage.


    "Yes, miss. "Then I''ll go tell the coachman." After getting Yun Ruoleng''s reply, Peach Blossom jumped out of the horse carriage happily and spoke to the driver of the horse carriage.


    Yun Ruoleng once again placed the parchment on the small table, and carefully studied the route on the parchment, his almond-shaped eyes narrowing.


    Indeed, this water route was much closer than the dry road. They could directly pass through the county, Pang City, and Long Xi County and arrive at Jing City. It would save them at least three days of travel.


    Yun Ruoleng kept the parchment, and Peach Blossom walked in, but her expression was not looking good.


    "What''s wrong?" Yun Ruoleng frowned.


    Peach Blossom looked at Yun Ruoleng, seemingly wanting to say something, "I''m fine ¡­"


    "Everything is written on his face, how can he possibly be fine?" Yun Ruoleng rolled her eyes at her. This girl never knew how to hide her emotions.


    "Miss, let''s go on the dry road!" Peach Blossom said with a sad face, "I heard that there are a lot of water pirates on the waterway and they are not safe. If I meet one, it will delay my arrival."


    "Isn''t it safe?" Yun Ruoleng frowned. No wonder Jun Qingshang told him only one path, it was actually like this! It''s not safe to have water pirates. If I''m not careful, I might not be able to escape. Forget it ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng smiled at Peach Blossom: "Go and tell the coachman that we should continue along the same road."


    "Yes sir!" Hearing that Yun Ruoleng had changed his mind, Tao Hong heaved a sigh of relief and anxiously went to consult with the coachman.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned on the walls of the carriage and rested. When Peach Blossom came in, she saw that her young miss was resting for the afternoon, so she did not disturb her. She took a thin blanket and covered her with it.


    The horse carriage headed south and arrived at Moon City, which was the closest city to Jingcheng, in seven days.


    After Yun Ruoleng washed off his fatigue in an inn, he leaned on the bed and looked at Peach Blossom who was busy, "Our speed is two days earlier than expected. If there are no accidents, we can enter Jing City tomorrow.


    "Your servant is nervous." Peach Red paused for a moment, creased her little face, and said, "Your servant''s eyelids have been jumping ever since yesterday. I don''t know why, but it''s just that I can''t stop jumping."


    "I think there are too many things on my mind." Yun Ruoleng said indifferently.


    "Nope!" Peach Red nervously retorted and advised, "Something will definitely happen to you. Miss, how about we go back?"


    "Go back?" Yun Ruoleng did not know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "Peach Blossom, we are all here."


    "But ¡­"


    "Enough!" Yun Ruoleng shook his head, his expression serious, "It''s just my eyelids jumping, how could anything really happen to me?"


    Yun Ruoleng did not believe in superstitions, if there was someone who would believe that there was a ghost in this world, wouldn''t that mean she was possessed by a ghost? However, she did not believe in this kind of thing.


    Peach Blossom wanted to continue persuading her, but when she saw that her young miss was really angry, she stopped talking about it.


    At ten in the night, Yun Ruoleng tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. It was unknown if it was because of Peach Blossom''s unease, but at this moment, her heart inexplicably started to panic.


    Suddenly, he saw a shadow flash past outside the window. Yun Ruoleng frowned, but did not pay much attention to it, on a dark and windy night, it was inevitable that there would be people who would come out to settle some matters, which was not surprising.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was preparing to rest, the window was suddenly pushed open, and then closed.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression immediately became extremely unsightly. The black shadow didn''t feel that the person inside the room had woken up, and at this moment, he was hiding at the side of the window, staring closely at the movement outside.


    Suddenly, a figure flashed by the window once more.


    Yun Ruoleng sat on the bed, her face dark and dripping. The person in her room looked like the one being hunted, but from the looks of it, she was not a match for the other party.


    At the same time, the person at the window also felt that there was someone in the room, but he was very curious, this person just looked at him without making a sound. At the same time, the person at the window also felt that there was someone in the room, but he was very strange, this person just looked at him without making a sound.


    "What are you looking at!" Yun Ruoleng opened the curtain, waved his hand, and pure spirit energy immediately lit up the candles in the room. A man dressed in black appeared at the window. He looked at Yun Ruoleng with a dumbstruck expression and could not help but exclaim: "What a pure power."


    Yun Ruoleng was startled for a second, then her face changed, she had acted on impulse.


    "Miss, I did not mean to offend you." The man saw that Yun Ruoleng''s expression was even worse, and hurriedly explained, "I was being followed, so I wanted to borrow a place to hide."


    Yun Ruoleng did not speak, his eyes coldly sized up the man for a moment, then turned around and pulled a piece of clothing that was draped over the head of the bed, casually putting it on.


    The man quickly opened his face. He was very curious in his heart. Why didn''t this woman have the slightest bit of fear when she saw the black clothed man barge into his room at night?


    After Yun Ruoleng poured a cup of water for himself and looked at the slowly awakening Peach Blossom Red, he continued to drink the water as if nothing had happened.


    "Miss ¡­ "Ahhh!"


    "Ugh ¡­" The man reacted quickly. Without waiting for Peach Blossom to yell, he had already flashed in front of her and unceremoniously covered her rosy lips.


    "You''re making such a big fuss, be careful he might kill you to keep your mouth shut." Yun Ruoleng''s cold voice came out, scaring Peach Blossom away, she anxiously looked at the frozen man.


    "Mmm mmm ¡­" Peach Red looked pitifully at the man, hoping that he would let her go.


    The man let go of her hands and clasped his fists towards Peach Blossom with an awkward expression. He said, "I''m just borrowing the opportunity to hide for a while and then leaving. Lady, there''s no need to panic."


    "Who are you?" Peach Blossom looked at the man in black who only revealed his eyes. She felt a sense of familiarity, as if she had seen him somewhere before.


    The man was slightly taken aback: "My name is Xia Mingrong."


    Yun Ruoleng''s thin lips slightly rose, "Xia Rong? "Along the way, we heard many people say that Moon City is the foundation of the Xiahou Family, one of the eight Heavenly Awakening Clans. What do you say, Xiahou Rong?"


    The man looked at the girl who was slowly drinking water in astonishment. Her peerless face under the candlelight was captivating. The pair of phoenix eyes that bore traces of a smile that was not a smile fluttered slightly. Xiahou Rong''s heart trembled slightly as he stood dumbstruck on the spot.


    There was someone coveting her young miss! Peach Blossom''s first reaction was to kill this pervert.

 C97

    Yun Ruoleng would have to be stopped urgently in the future. A pair of peach-colored shoes accurately hit Xiahou Rong''s back. Xiahou Rong recovered from his shock and subconsciously looked at Peach Blossom behind him.


    However, before he could see Peach Blossom, he was hit by a pillow.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng looked at Peach Blossom speechlessly. Wasn''t this girl''s reaction too extreme? This was the first grandson of the Xiahou Family! Although he had lived in Moon City since he was young, this still couldn''t change his identity!


    Xiahou Rong was also stunned. He had never been beaten up by anyone since he was young, but today, he was actually beaten up. Furthermore, the one who beat him was a young maid from an unknown family.


    "You ¡­"


    "Stop!" Seeing that Peach Blossom was still going to throw things at him, Yun Ruoleng''s face changed, and he immediately stopped her.


    "Miss, he actually ¡­"


    "Don''t mess around!" Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly as he glanced coldly at Xiahou Rong, who was in no hurry to respond. "Young master, it''s time to leave!"


    Although Xiahou Rong was curious, he did not continue to stay. After all, he had been rude just now.


    "Thank you very much, young lady. When young lady comes to your residence one day, I will definitely express my gratitude."


    Yun Ruoleng coldly nodded and did not pick up Xiahou Rong''s words. Xiahou Rong looked deeply at the smart and calm girl in front of him, then opened the window and left.


    A small episode did not affect him in the slightest. After Yun Ruoleng sent Xiahou Rong away, he continued to sleep.


    But the little girl, Peach Blossom, couldn''t sleep. Her young miss was sleeping, and unexpectedly, a man had barged in! She didn''t even know, no! She had to stay here. What if something happened to her young miss?


    Thus, a certain little girl sat on the bed all night without closing her eyes.


    "Didn''t you sleep well last night?" When Yun Ruoleng woke up in the morning, he couldn''t help but frown as he looked at the pair of panda eyes.


    "No problem, this servant can still continue sleeping on the road." A certain little girl felt that all she had to do was to silently guard her young mistress. Once she returned and had her prince guarding her, she would be able to relax.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng did not know what to say. From her expression, he reckoned that she did not close her eyes last night.


    The matter of Xia Hou Rongye barging into Yun Ruoleng''s room was quickly transmitted to Jun Qingshang''s ears. After hearing An Ying''s report, Jun Qingshang''s face darkened to the point of dripping with tears.


    "We can meet up with them in Jingcheng tomorrow." Jun Qingshang paused for a moment, and then ordered, "Go and prepare."


    "Yes sir!"


    Yun Ruoleng stayed in Moon City for the night and then headed to Jing Cheng.


    Jingcheng was truly worthy of being called Jingcheng, it was a beautiful scenery with dense and pure Spirit Qi, Yun Ruoleng leaned on the horse carriage and continued to absorb the Spirit Qi, he felt the Spirit Qi in his body becoming denser and denser, and suddenly "Bang!" With a sound, Yun Ruoleng fiercely opened his eyes and looked around in confusion.


    Peach Blossom was still sleeping, as if she hadn''t heard the sound. The coachman was driving the horse outside, and there was no reaction at all. Could it be that there was something wrong with her hearing?


    Yun Ruoleng scratched his head, took out the black jade and examined it for a moment, then started to continuously channel spirit energy into it.


    "Crack!" The crisp shattering sound made Yun Ruoleng rejoice in his heart. This meant that she had broken through the second layer of the seal, there were still seven more layers.


    Yun Ruoleng happily received the black jade and reacted. After channeling so much spirit energy into her, other than feeling depressed, there was nothing else that felt uncomfortable. She was probably not far from breaking the third level of the seal.


    Yun Ruoleng continued his cultivation, and the horse carriage continued its journey towards Jing City. In the evening, the horse carriage finally arrived at the gate of Jing City.


    "Miss, we are here." Peach Blossom did not sleep for the entire night. When she woke up, it was already evening. Seeing the long line of people lined up outside the window, her smiling face had some doubts. "Miss, there seems to be something being searched outside."


    Yun Ruoleng threw a piece of jade into Peach Blossom''s hands. "When you came to search, tell them that you came from Regent¡¯s Mansion to retrieve something."


    "This servant understands." Peach Blossom tightly gripped the jade pendant as a proud smile appeared on her face. She felt that the prince had treated her well and was afraid that the young lady would suffer a loss along the way and even give her a close-fitting jade pendant.


    How could she have known that Yun Ruoleng had come for her? Of course she had paid a corresponding price for the jade pendant, it was just that Yun Ruoleng did not say anything about it.


    The guard was indeed searching, but it was a criminal. When they found Yun Ruoleng''s carriage, Peach Blossom stuck her head out and laughed: "It''s been hard on you all, my family''s young miss gave you all some silver to drink."


    Peach Blossom tossed a purse to the guard closest to her and continued, "My young miss is here on the orders of the Regent. Is it convenient for everyone to pass through?"


    The guard looked at each other, then looked at the jade pendant that Peach Blossom was holding and tactfully stepped aside.


    "Wait!" A rough voice called out to Yun Ruoleng and the rest who were about to leave, "Not long after His Highness the Regent has entered the city, you guys came here. You''re very suspicious!"


    "I''ve heard that the Jing Cheng''s guard, Sir Jiang, was not righteous at all, but today, Leng Er couldn''t help but exclaim when he saw it. As expected, seeing it for a hundred times isn''t as good as seeing it once."


    Yun Ruoleng''s cold voice suddenly came out, causing the big sized man by the side of the carriage to be startled: "Miss, you are doing the right thing, you shouldn''t be afraid of being investigated!"


    "Naturally." Yun Ruoleng took the initiative to open the curtain, and as she was wearing her veil, she asked, "Has Master taken a good look?"


    "Apologies." The big man looked at the situation in the carriage and cupped his hands in apology.


    Yun Ruoleng did not feel anything, after all, if you meet someone like him who had such an unfathomable brain, it would be best for you to go easy on him, so that you would not be harmed. But just now, he said that Jun Qingshang was already here, which made her curious.


    "Where is the prince?"


    The big sized man was startled, he had felt weird from the moment Yun Ruoleng spoke. There was no one who did not know about the Prince Regent, but this woman held a jade pendant and went to find the Prince Regent ¡­


    The big man was wondering if he should say the address when he heard the sound of a horse''s hooves behind him.


    "Miss, An Ying and An Xiang are here." Peach Blossom was very excited, she got out of the carriage and looked at the two of them coming over. She then waved at the two people on horseback, "Over here! "Here!"


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng wanted to say that he did not know who this crazy girl was, but he could not do anything as everyone thought that this crazy girl was in her car.


    "Sir Jiang, has Miss Yun committed any crimes?" An Ying dismounted from his horse and watched as a group of men surrounded the carriage of a little girl.


    "No ¡­" The big man stuttered.


    "I just heard that Sir Jiang was being honest and talked to him for a while before entering the city." Yun Ruoleng opened the carriage''s curtain and smiled at An Ying: "Thank you for coming to pick me up."


    "The prince has ordered this subordinate to protect your safety." An Ying laughed embarrassedly as he wore Yun Ruoleng and entered the city.

 C98

    Yun Ruoleng opened the curtain and looked at the environment of Jing Cheng with a smile.


    Peach Blossom laid on the other window and exclaimed, "Young miss, this place is really beautiful! "Although this place is not as bustling as Beijing, it is still better than Beijing. The flower beds around the road are really pretty."


    However, Yun Ruoleng felt that this place was like a main street of the twentieth century. It was brightly lit, filled with flowers, plants and trees, and if not for the fact that the houses and pedestrians were dressed in an ancient fashion, she would have thought that she had gone back home.


    "Miss?" After Tao Hong said that, she didn''t get a reply for a long time. She couldn''t help but glance at Yun Ruoleng who was lying at the window.


    "It is indeed very beautiful." Yun Ruoleng returned a faint smile, and yawned tiredly. His expression turned serious, "Rest well tonight, we will be going to Saint Wu Mountain tomorrow."


    "Yes."


    Yun Ruoleng retracted his gaze and continued: "If we have the time to return, then we can come here and have a good time. This is indeed a good place."


    Peach Blossom didn''t know what her young miss was sighing about, but when she said that, she became happy.


    An Ying and a group of people quickly arrived at the place where Jun Qingshang was resting. When Yun Ruoleng arrived, he was reading a book and heard that someone had reported Yun Ruoleng over. Jun Qingshang was very happy and put down the book in his hand.


    "His Highness really knows how to enjoy himself." Yun Ruoleng''s first sentence he heard when he saw Jun Qingshang was really bad for the scenery.


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, "How do you know?"


    "Your highness had reserved a good customer, didn''t you want to seek a quiet place by yourself?" When Yun Ruoleng stepped into the crowd of good customers, he realized that there was not a single person in this luxurious inn. Due to the increase in her power, her organs had become much more sensitive. Upon entering the inn, she discovered that this inn was actually filled with many people in secret.


    "Looks like this trip wasn''t in vain." Hearing that, Jun Qingshang knew that Yun Ruoleng''s perception had improved a lot, but he did not pursue the topic any further, only nodding, "Go and bathe first, then come and eat."


    Yun Ruoleng did not reject her. Instead, he quickly followed An Xiang and left. After everything was tidied up, Yun Ruoleng once again appeared in Jun Qingshang''s room. Jun Qingshang''s dinner was already filled to the brim in front of him. After rushing for an entire day, Yun Ruoleng''s stomach was indeed hungry, and without being polite with Jun Qingshang, he started to eat.


    Jun Qingshang glanced at the Yun Ruoleng who had no image to speak of, and frowned: "Concealed."


    "Can modesty fill the stomach?" Yun Ruoleng stuffed a piece of chicken into his mouth as he replied vaguely.


    Jun Qingshang was startled, then he glanced at her while feeling annoyed and amused: "Aren''t you afraid that you won''t get married off?"


    Yun Ruoleng waved her little claws, and angrily corrected: "I don''t want to get married!"


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful beautiful eyes looked at Yun Ruoleng from time to time. Seeing that she did not have any other reactions, her eyes darkened, and took the chopsticks to start eating as well.


    Jun Qingshang also didn''t know what was going on with him. Every time he watched Yun Ruoleng eat, his appetite would grow a lot more.


    Because Yun Ruoleng wanted to go to the Sacred Witch Mountain to gather the Crimson Bead Grass, he did not stay long with Jun Qingshang and went back to his room to rest after eating dinner.


    On the morning of the second day, Yun Ruoleng stood at the entrance of the An Lai customer in high spirits.


    "This trip is very dangerous. This King cannot accompany you up the mountain, but you must be careful." Jun Qingshang glanced at her exceptionally calm face, "If you can''t go up the mountain, then come back. In short, protect your own life, so it''s better for me to report to Master Shang Shu."


    "I am a cat. I have nine lives. Nothing will happen to me." Yun Ruoleng laughed, and replied with determination.


    A complicated light flashed through Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes, and he did not continue persuading him as he watched Yun Ruoleng calmly climbed onto the carriage.


    Did this woman really not care about the danger?


    Peach Blossom stood behind Jun Qingshang with tears in her eyes. Her young miss really despised her and didn''t want her to go.


    "An Ying, arrange for a few people to protect him in the dark. "If there''s anything, report it to me immediately." Jun Qingshang frowned as he watched the carriage get further and further away.


    Although An Ying felt that his master was a little concerned, he only dared to say that in his heart. He turned around and quickly ordered others to follow him.


    After an afternoon''s worth of travel, Yun Ruoleng finally reached the foot of the Saint Wu Mountain.


    Looking at the towering Sacred Martial Mountain, he was stunned.


    "You really want to go up? "You won''t lose your life if you go up as a person without any power, and you''re still going up like this?" An Xiang held his sword and asked puzzledly.


    Yun Ruoleng sighed: "How can I get a tiger without getting into the tiger''s den." You just wait here for me, you don''t have to come up. "


    "I don''t dare to be lazy." "I''ll send you on your way for a while. If I can''t take it anymore, I won''t leave."


    Seeing that she was adamant, Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, and only nodded and walked towards the Saint Wu Mountain.


    As Yun Ruoleng walked, he could feel the spirit energy that was continuously gushing into her body. Her phoenix eyes narrowed, the spirit energy actually matched the spirit energy in his body so well, if he stayed here for a long time, the power of his own body would probably be even stronger.


    As Yun Ruoleng calculated how to deal with this unwittingly, he observed An Ying who was walking behind him. He saw that her expression was normal in the beginning, but when she was three hundred meters away, her face immediately turned pale white.


    Yun Ruoleng stopped in his tracks, looked at the road ahead, and turned to An Xiang. The spirit energy ahead will be even denser, you won''t be able to take it. "


    An Xiang nodded, she was indeed using her Spirit Qi to suppress the boiling blood flow: "Alright, then I will wait here for you."


    Yun Ruoleng knew that An Xiang had only come because of Jun Qingshang''s orders. She did not listen to what he had said, nor did she try to force him.


    In fact, An Xiang was very curious, if a person without any power did not walk 100 meters he would already feel uncomfortable, so how could he continue to walk? However, not only was Yun Ruoleng not unwell, he seemed to be even more excited.


    Yes, it was excitement.


    From the moment Yun Ruoleng entered Saint Wu Mountain, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes were filled with eagerness. An Xiang felt that Yun Ruoleng was simply a weirdo in the human world.


    Yun Ruoleng observed as she walked along the road. Suddenly, she realised that she could see a lot of things filled with witch power halfway up the mountain. Even the wild chickens in the mountain were wild chickens filled with witch power.


    Yun Ruoleng''s interest was piqued. With a light flick of his finger, a strand of spirit energy shot towards a rabbit that was gnawing on the grass. The rabbit was very sensitive, and when it felt any hostility, it instantly jumped away and turned to look at Yun Ruoleng innocently.

 C99

    Interesting. Yun Ruoleng pursed her lips. It seemed that this rabbit was a rabbit with knowledge.


    However, Yun Ruoleng did not capture the rabbit. Instead, he glanced at the grass that the rabbit was chewing on and his eyes suddenly lit up.


    After reading, the veins on Yun Ruoleng''s forehead twitched. You actually ate such precious grass! "


    The little rabbit was very innocent, with scarlet eyes, she looked around. Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s angry look, she seemed to know that she was angry and turned to run.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at the quickly running rabbit. A ray of transparent spirit energy shot towards the rabbit with a speed as fast as light.


    "Sizzle ¡­" B.Rabbit jumped away defensively, but because Yun Ruoleng used his spirit energy to lock on to his target, the little white rabbit was beaten into a pulp and was unable to move.


    Seeing this, Yun Ruoleng smiled: "I had thought you were powerful, but to think you are only so powerful. Since he was caught by me, then tell me how to find this Crimson Pearl Grass! "If you don''t say ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng reached out to grab the rabbit''s ear and placed it in front of him, smiling sinisterly at it while his other hand took out a dagger that shone with a cold light from an unknown place, and waved it in front of the rabbit: "If you don''t want to say it, I''ll peel off your skin first, then cut off your flesh piece by piece and roast it."


    The little white rabbit trembled in fear. Her red gem-like eyes narrowed incessantly. She did not dare to move.


    Seeing that she was afraid, Yun Ruoleng was elated. After putting away the dagger in his hand, he threw the little white rabbit on the ground. "Lead the way!"


    The little white rabbit was very aggrieved. It was a rabbit, not a dog. Why did it have to order it around like that?!


    Yun Ruoleng did not care whether it was wronged or not, and threatened: "You took the medicine that I was looking for, and you still feel wronged? Do you really think that I wouldn''t dare to roast you to eat? "


    The little white rabbit shrank back in fear. Due to the injuries on its body and the fact that it knew it couldn''t run away, the little rabbit tactfully went to find Crimson Pearl Grass for Yun Ruoleng.


    However, due to the climate change, this herb only grew halfway up the mountain. With the little white rabbit to lead the way, Yun Ruoleng quickly found the Crimson Pearl Grass.


    Yun Ruoleng had originally only wanted to pick two or three stalks to treat Yun Qingyao''s illness, and use them just in case.


    But when he was about to walk down the mountain, he suddenly remembered something. Because the Crimson Pearl Grass was grown in a place with spiritual energy like Saint Witch Mountain, it was said to be a legendary item. If he took two more with him, wouldn''t he earn a lot of money?


    Yun Ruoleng swept a glance at the little white rabbit who was munching on a wild fruit. Her lips slightly moved, and she reached out to gently rub its head: "Little guy, please find me some more."


    The little rabbit glared at her, as if blaming Yun Ruoleng for disturbing her eating the wild fruits. Yun Ruoleng''s smile became even wider, and he waved the wild fruit in his hand: "Lead the way, I''ll pick more delicious food for you when I''m in a good mood."


    Hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, she threw the wild fruit in her mouth away and ran to a place not far away where she lowered her head to smell it, before rubbing her hands together again.


    Yun Ruoleng squinted his eyes slightly. This rabbit was really full of spirit energy, to think that it could actually understand human language.


    The wild fruits and herbs here all contain spirit energy, so any one of them can be sold for an astronomical price. Yun Ruoleng was not a greedy person, after finding a few herbs that could assist in his cultivation, he gifted some of the wild fruits to the little rabbit. Carrying his own spoils of war, he leisurely strolled down the mountain.


    He walked down to see An Xiang sitting on a rock, his face pale white, because the spirit energy here was pressing down on her and making her feel uncomfortable, as though she had entered her Water Spirit Pavilion.


    The Water Spirit Pavilion had a special formation to suppress the spirit energy here, but it was different. There was wind in all four directions here, but no matter where one stood, they would feel uncomfortable. If An Xiang did not have the Spirit Qi to fight with it, he would probably be crushed to death by the Spirit Qi.


    When Yun Ruoleng went down the mountain, he saw the pale-faced An Xiang. His original good mood instantly vanished.


    "Are you stupid?" Yun Ruoleng walked forward and picked An Xiang up from the boulder, and dragged her down the mountain, "Fortunately I came down early, otherwise you would really have died here!"


    "You ¡­ How are you alright? " An Xiang looked at the person who was dragging him down the mountain as if nothing had happened, and was extremely surprised in his heart.


    "The Smoke Water Spirit Jade has a special function." Yun Ruoleng paused, "It can block any type of spiritual energy."


    Yun Ruoleng did not continue. Instead, he sped up his pace.


    An Xiang looked at Yun Ruoleng with half believing and half doubting eyes, why had she never heard of it before?


    An Xiang truly did not know about this. Other than the owner of the Smoke Water Spirit Jade, no one else in the world knew about it, even Jun Qingshang himself did not know about it. However, the Smoke Water Spirit Jade was only useful to protect its owner.


    The two of them went down the mountain one after the other. Because An Xiang had used too much inner strength on the mountain, he couldn''t walk anymore after reaching the foot of the mountain.


    "¡­" Do you want to fall down here? It was already dusk, it would be dangerous if she stayed out all night here. Although she did not see any large animals in the daytime, she could clearly feel that there were many living creatures in this Saint Wu Mountain that carried Spirit Qi.


    If he didn''t leave earlier, he was afraid that he would really die here.


    She was just a newly learned fairy! How could he possibly beat those things?


    Yun Ruoleng reached out and pulled An Xiang up, "No! We have to leave! The carriage is just ahead.


    An Xiang said with a bitter face: "But I really can''t walk anymore."


    Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath, "I''ll carry you."


    "¡­" An Xiang was stunned, Yun Ruoleng was the young miss of Minister¡¯s Mansion, she actually wanted to carry him?


    Seeing her stunned, Yun Ruoleng said angrily: "The sun is about to set, if we don''t go now, there will be danger to our lives."


    Although An Xiang was very uncomfortable, he didn''t persist. He reached out and put his hand on Yun Ruoleng''s slender shoulder: "Help me! I can still walk. "


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, holding onto An Xiang with one hand and his spoils of war with the other, he could not help but be glad that he did not bring much with him, otherwise, he would not be able to leave with a burden.


    Yun Ruoleng and An Xiang used the time it took two incense sticks to burn to walk to the front of the carriage, and with the help of the carriage driver, they helped An Xiang get on the carriage.


    The coachman wasn''t a fool. He knew that it would be difficult to travel after dark, and the area around Sacred Martial Mountain was dangerous. He swung the whip in his hand, hitting the horse''s butt.

 C100

    The horse whinnied in pain, raised its front hooves, and galloped away.


    The carriage belonged to Regent¡¯s Mansion, and the horses were tied up. Although it was not as big as the thousand li horse, it was not bad because the sun was only showing a tiny bit. It was estimated that it would be dark in two incense sticks of time.


    In such a short period of time, they were the only ones who could save lives.


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire heart was lifted, he leaned on the carriage wall, and tiredly opened his eyes: "Don''t worry! "The speed of these two horses will definitely be far away from the range of Sacred Martial Mountain."


    "I''m not afraid of getting out of the range of the Sacred Martial Mountain. I''m just worried that something might happen." Yun Ruoleng frowned. Because today''s matter had gone too smoothly, she still felt an indescribable unease.


    Seeing her like she was facing an enemy, An Xiang curled his lips: "Who would come to this place to cause trouble for you?"


    Yun Ruoleng did not say a word, and only indifferently swept An Xiang with his gaze: "It''s said that tired people can recover their spirit energy by replenishing. I have some wild fruits that I picked from the mountains here, do you want to eat one?"


    An Xiang''s clear eyes were filled with curiosity. It was not that she had never eaten fruits with spirit energy before, but the spirit energy was not sufficient to sustain her, so other than the taste being good, it did not have much use.


    The fruits within the Water Spirit Pavilion were tasty and replenishing, but the prince had personally planted them. She stealthily ate one of them and didn''t dare to go. And the spirit energy in this Sacred Martial Mountain was even denser than in Water Spirit Pavilion.


    The more An Xiang thought about it, the brighter his eyes became. Yun Ruoleng had already opened the cloth bag and handed one of the fruits to An Xiang, and said: "This spiritual energy is too abundant, it''s better for you to eat less."


    An Xiang loathed the thumb-sized wild fruit, but after hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, he had no choice but to admit this fact. The denser the spiritual energy, the harder it was for a person without Shaman Energy to eat. As for the wild fruits of the Sacred Martial Mountain ¡­


    An Xiang started to hesitate, could the wild fruits eat it?


    "It should be fine if you eat less." Yun Ruoleng wasn''t sure either. Seeing her frighteningly pale face, he could only let her try first.


    An Xiang gently bit on it and clearly felt a dense amount of spirit energy fill his entire body. He was so shocked that he couldn''t even hold onto the wild fruit properly, and directly dropped it on the ground. Seeing this, An Xiang felt both pity and fear.


    Seeing that An Xiang''s complexion had improved, Yun Ruoleng had the intention to joke: "Looks like I''m not as ugly as I was just now. How about we eat some more?"


    An Xiang immediately shook his head: "No, there''s no need. I''m already much better, it will be a problem if I continue to eat. "


    Yun Ruoleng did not force it, and tied the cloth bag back to its original position, then slowly reached out and pulled open a corner of the curtain. They had already unknowingly left the vicinity of the Saint Wu Mountain, causing Yun Ruoleng to heave a sigh of relief.


    "You''re out?" An Xiang saw her expression flicker between times as she asked with uncertainty.


    "Yes, but at night, I''m afraid travelling there will be a bit of a problem." Yun Ruoleng could feel that the carriage was slowing down, "Why don''t we sleep out here tonight?"


    An Xiang glared at Yun Ruoleng snappily. "I say, Miss Yun, can you have any common sense at all? Although they were out of danger''s range, they couldn''t guarantee their safety! While the sky is still dark, let''s continue on our way! "


    "True." Yun Ruoleng nodded his head. He couldn''t guarantee that there wouldn''t be any dangers in this wilderness.


    The sky slowly darkened, and suddenly, the carriage stopped in the middle of a forest. Because the carriage was travelling at a relatively fast speed, Yun Ruoleng immediately threw himself forward due to inertia, but luckily, An Xiang''s hands and feet were quick, and quickly pulled Yun Ruoleng back, but Yun Ruoleng''s head still knocked on the corner of the table.


    "Hiss!" Yun Ruoleng held his head, and asked somewhat angrily: "What''s wrong?"


    "Your subordinate is looking into it!" The wagon driver was not an ordinary wagon driver, he was one of the people from the An Ying Guard and was brought here by Jun Qingshang to be Yun Ruoleng''s coachman.


    Suddenly, a rustling sound was heard as he got closer. Yun Ruoleng saw that An Xiang did not react at all, and thought that he had misheard, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the people outside exclaiming, "Protect the young miss!"


    An Xiang pressed Yun Ruoleng''s head down onto the table, and an arrow flew past her head, straight into the wood on the wall of the carriage.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face congealed, An Xiang then raised his sword and flew out, quickly covering the carriage with the curtain.


    The sound of clashing weapons came from outside. There were cries of surprise and the sound of weapons stabbing into flesh.


    Yun Ruoleng used his power to block the arrows, making it impossible for him to get close, but hearing what was happening outside, he became extremely anxious. Although he didn''t know who sent him, as long as he returned alive, he would definitely not let that person who wanted his life go.


    "Bang!" The horse carriage was hit, causing Yun Ruoleng to shake, almost dispersing the power in his hands.


    After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the arrows seemed to have disappeared, and the sounds of battle outside became quieter and quieter. Yun Ruoleng frowned, her heart was in her throat, she only had two people, but her opponent''s numbers seemed to far surpass her own.


    It was obvious that her side was weak.


    Yun Ruoleng withdrew her power and opened the curtain to peek outside. Just looking at her, she was almost scared to death. She saw that An Xiang''s mouth was smeared with blood, and as he supported himself on the carriage wall, he was looking at the black-clothed men who were approaching closer and closer.


    The coachman from before was still fighting with a dozen people not far away. One could tell with a single glance that ¡­


    It was over.


    Yun Ruoleng could not stay any longer, she took out a soft sword from her waist. Although she was not proficient in swordsmanship, she had learned a few moves from An Xiang and learnt a few more moves from the driver.


    Yun Ruoleng felt that rather than sitting still and waiting for death to come, it would be better to fight to the death with these people.


    Yun Ruoleng lifted his sword, completely forgetting about what An Xiang said before he left and rushed out.


    An Xiang was also stunned, by the time he managed to react, Yun Ruoleng had already stabbed his red blade in, killing another person.


    Miss An Xiang''s almond-shaped eyes widened. This Seventh Miss of the Yun Family was really intrepid, waiting for them to be in a daze before killing them. The man in black was also stunned. Such a slim girl actually ¡­


    Just as the black clothed man was in a daze, Yun Ruoleng took out his sword and waved it, stabbing towards the other black clothed man.


    The man in black reacted quickly as he subconsciously fell back, barely dodging the flexible sword. Yun Ruoleng''s eyes darkened slightly as the flexible sword directly slashed at him.


    The black-clothed man was secretly shocked, the weapon in his hand blocked the flexible sword, causing An Xiang''s heart to thump loudly. The black clothed man reacted, his gaze was terrifying, a few of them dragged An Xiang and the coachman, while the rest pounced towards Yun Ruoleng.

 C101

    An Xiang and the coachman were extremely anxious. Seeing that the situation was amiss, Yun Ruoleng was also extremely anxious. How could he possibly win against so many people?


    "Swish ¡­" "Peng!" A streak of fireworks soared into the night sky, exploding in the sky. It was extremely beautiful.


    However, the people below did not have the mood to appreciate its beauty. Taking the chance that the black clothed man did not react, An Xiang quickly grabbed his hand and ran.


    Taking the opportunity to glance back at the black clothed men who were chasing after him, Yun Ruoleng''s expression changed slightly. "No, they''re chasing us."


    "Hold on, I''ve already sent a message to master." An Xiang had suffered many injuries, so this run naturally tore the wound, but she did not make a sound.


    Yun Ruoleng could feel that the hand holding his hand was wet and sticky. Yun Ruoleng used his entire body''s power to heal An Xiang''s wounds as he ran.


    An Xiang trembled, "You ¡­"


    "Shh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng quickly made a gesture of silence.


    An Xiang had some suspicions as he suddenly pulled Yun Ruoleng back and hid him behind his back while coldly staring in front.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned on An Xiang, and narrowed her eyes when she saw the person who had chased after her: "It looks like we''ve been pincer attacked."


    "I can only stall for time." An Xiang felt that the wounds on her body had mostly healed, but she looked at the person in front of her and knew very clearly in her heart that clashing with him would not work, so she could only use her wits.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly laughed, and sheathed the sword in his hand back onto his waist: "Everyone, can we talk properly if you have something to say? Don''t you guys feel it''s very impolite to attack as soon as you get up? "


    "Charge!" The leader was very smart, he knew that Yun Ruoleng was trying to stall for time the moment he saw him.


    "Wait!" Yun Ruoleng retracted his smile, and said with a serious face, "Before I die, you guys have to tell me who wanted to kill me, right?"


    "In the Seventh Miss, assassins will not reveal any news about the buyers. The reason the Bloodbath Pavilion existed for so long is because they had always been very strict with the rules!" An Xiang felt that this Seventh Miss was sometimes silly, and really didn''t know what to say about her.


    Of course, Yun Ruoleng knew that the assassination association wouldn''t reveal the buyer''s information, so he wanted to stall for time.


    Besides, what if the villain died from talking too much?


    The leader cast a cold glance at her before waving his hand to let his companion continue.


    Unexpectedly, Yun Ruoleng called out to them again, and said: "I have something good with me, something that is hard to find in a hundred years, can I use it to exchange words with?"


    "What is it?" The black-clothed man''s expression changed slightly, as if his interest was piqued.


    Yun Ruoleng took out a stalk of herb from his waist and waved it in front of everyone: "This one."


    An Xiang saw that the grass in her hand was swaying and her face changed. What was she trying to do?


    Yun Ruoleng quickly explained: "This is a treasure. Even though it''s an unremarkable stalk of grass, this stalk of grass is still a medicinal herb, and is especially useful to people who are injured or suffering from hidden ailments. I came here specifically for this stalk of grass."


    "Ha!" If I kill you, I won''t be able to obtain it either! " The black-clothed man didn''t want to talk nonsense with Yun Ruoleng. He knew that the rescue signal had already been sent out, and it wouldn''t be long before the Regent King''s men arrived.


    Yun Ruoleng said with a sullen face: "I didn''t say I don''t want you to kill me. I just wanted to ask you a question, a very simple question. "If you weren''t robbed, you would still think that you''re a gentleman, right?"


    "Ask away." All men were willing to be gentlemen in the eyes of others, and killers were no exception, so Yun Ruoleng really took the bait when he said this.


    "Let me ask you, where is the Bloodstained Pavilion?" After Yun Ruoleng finished asking this, he couldn''t help but roll his eyes again.


    "The Hall of Blood is our headquarters. Will I tell you?" The black-clothed man felt that if that person asked them to kill an idiot, it would be a waste of money and money.


    "If you don''t tell me, how am I going to find someone to kill Yun Yueyu?"


    "Who did you say?" the man in black asked.


    Yun Ruoleng did not speak anymore, and threw the Scarlet Pearl Grass in his hands onto the leader''s body. The leader subconsciously reached out to receive it, and a transparent stream of pure magic power shot out, piercing into the leader''s heart.


    "Ugh ¡­" The leader clutched at his chest as he fell to his knees. The black clothed man was instantly stunned. What was going on?


    "Kill them all!" The leader closed his eyes and said that he wanted to kill Yun Ruoleng and the others.


    The group of dragons didn''t have a leader, but to an assassin, the quest always came first. They had to continue completing the quest.


    However, Yun Ruoleng did not expect that killing the leader did not cause them to panic, but instead caused their killing intent to become even stronger.


    An Xiang tightly protected her behind him. Because his body was still slightly injured, his hands and feet were not very nimble.


    "An Xiang..." Yun Ruoleng cried in alarm, feeling very sorry for this little girl who had risked her life to save him.


    "Don''t be distracted!" An Xiang deflected the sword that was thrusting towards his forehead, pulling Yun Ruoleng to the side slightly, a sword slashed towards the two of them, causing Yun Ruoleng to fall back in order to avoid it, but rather, he separated from An Xiang.


    If he didn''t kill now, then when? The black clothed man split into two groups, one held An Xiang back and the other fiercely attacked him. Yun Ruoleng had always been at a disadvantage. Right now, she had consumed way too much power, and couldn''t even condense the most basic protective shield, so she could only flee in all directions. In the process of fleeing, he naturally suffered quite a few injuries.


    It was unknown if it was because the heavens had opened their eyes, but the black clothed man forced Yun Ruoleng beside a big maple tree that had two people hugging it together. Just when they thought that they could easily kill Yun Ruoleng, just as Yun Ruoleng was laughing bitterly and thought that he was done for, a masked man in black descended from the sky.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the man who landed in front of her with astonishment. She dared to guarantee that she wouldn''t recognize this person.


    After An Xiang dealt with the few people around her, he lost all his strength and used the sword to support his body. He raised his head and was immediately excited: "An Yue, you''re here!"


    An Yue? Yun Ruoleng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "Thank you."


    Although the voice was soft, Yun Ruoleng could clearly see his body freeze slightly.


    The black clothed man subconsciously took a step back, because the sudden appearance of An Yue was too strong, they were not his match.


    At this time, a rustling sound came from the depths of the forest. They all vigilantly looked towards the source of the sound.


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart was instantly lifted, this voice...


    Sure enough, this group of people had arrived, so the coachman was dead.


    "Big brother!" The group of black clothed men who had just arrived saw the black clothed man who was lying on the ground motionlessly, and they exclaimed out loud. They raised their head and stared at Yun Ruoleng with their red eyes, "Kill! "Leave no one alive!"

 C102

    An Xiang cursed in his heart. This group of people was not the group to restrain the coachmen, and their skills seemed to be much higher than that group of people. An Xiang looked at An Yue, although his skills were good, he was not a match for them!


    Yun Ruoleng was also aware of this fact, the black clothed man did not give them a chance to explain and directly pounced towards them. An Yue had protected Yun Ruoleng well, and he was also a smart person. As she fought, she drew closer to An Yue.


    As for the rookie Yun Ruoleng, she could only hide and not cause them any trouble.


    When Yun Ruoleng got out of the carriage, she had prepared something, she threw a wild fruit into her mouth and slowly chewed it. She could clearly feel a sweet and rich spiritual energy rushing into her meridians.


    The dark night was the best time to kill people. Although her spirit power was golden in color, in the dark night, it was colorless.


    The sudden fall of the man made the other black clothed men suspicious, the exchange of moves between the strong and weak was just a hair away, it was clear, the black clothed man''s attention was successfully taken care of by An Yue and An Xiang.


    When Yun Ruoleng took care of the person in front of her, she did not know that there was someone behind her, and immediately used her sword to stab at her heart.


    "Watch your back!" An Xiang exclaimed.


    Ah!" A blood-curdling screech sounded at the same time as her voice rang out. Turning around to look, she was so scared that her entire body trembled.


    "I''m fine." A wide cape was gently draped over her body, the familiar yet cold aura instantly bringing Yun Ruoleng back to reality.


    "Leave no one alive!" The man''s thin lips curled up. With a single sentence, he had decided everyone''s fate.


    When Yun Ruoleng regained his senses, he was stunned again. The only thing he felt in front of him was that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and after hearing the "Ping Ping Pang Pang Pang" sounds of weapons clashing, Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath and fainted.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up, he felt as if his entire body had been run over by a car, his body feeling heavy and painful.


    "You''re awake?"


    With a voice that sounded like a grand piano entering his ears, Yun Ruoleng was stunned for a long time before he regained his senses, "Thank you for saving me last night."


    "Last night?" Jun Qingshang chuckled, "You''ve already slept for two days."


    "That was so long..." "Hiss ¡­" Yun Ruoleng gasped, "I have to deliver medicine to big sister ¡­"


    "We''re on our way back." Jun Qingshang raised a hand to suppress the Yun Ruoleng who was about to get up, and said in a low voice, "It''s not good to eat without eating for two days. There''s some porridge here that I just bought, go ahead and eat some first. "


    Yun Ruoleng did not hear his later words, as they were still on the "They are already on their way back". Yun Ruoleng looked at the top of the carriage, then looked at Jun Qingshang, and then opened his mouth: "No matter what, I still have to thank you. If not for you, I really would have died in the wilderness."


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, he did not say much and held onto the porridge on the table. After testing the temperature, he used a small spoon to stir the porridge, then scooped a spoonful and brought it to Yun Ruoleng''s lips: "The wound on your arm is very deep, luckily you are a witch, otherwise you would have scars."


    Yun Ruoleng wanted to reject her, but he swallowed the words back, opening his mouth wide to take the food.


    Seeing that she did not reject him and continued to feed him, Yun Ruoleng did not act pretentiously. After he fed her a mouthful, she obediently finished eating it, and her bowl of porridge was finished quickly. Jun Qingshang sat beside Yun Ruoleng in a good mood and was reading a book.


    The Regent''s Carriage was wide and soft. Not long after Yun Ruoleng laid on the bed, he fell asleep again.


    Yun Ruoleng opened his eyes and looked at the little girl crying in confusion in front of him. He felt his forehead twitch: "Peach Blossom, your young miss is not dead yet! What are you crying for! "


    "Miss has woken up." Peach Red was not angry because of Yun Ruoleng''s scolding, and immediately grinned, "My prince said that you were assassinated, and almost lost your life, I am feeling wronged for your sake."


    "What are you feeling aggrieved for?" Yun Ruoleng was completely confused by her grievances. Could the assassination be related to her grievance?


    "Please look for medicine for Third Miss. Third Miss doesn''t need anyone to greet her when she takes the position of Holy Mother. This servant truly feels that it isn''t worth it." Peach Blossom said and was about to cry again.


    Yun Ruoleng grabbed the key point, his eyes lighting up: "Big sister has become a Holy Mother?"


    "Yes, six days ago, but she never wrote you a letter." Peach Red felt that Third Miss had forgotten about her young lady.


    "Don''t speak nonsense!" Yun Ruoleng''s face sunk a little, "If she becomes the Holy Mother, then she won''t be able to be as free as before, and won''t be able to live in Minister¡¯s Mansion, so she has a lot of things to take care of, so it''s natural for her to not care about me for a while.


    Yun Ruoleng stretched out her hands from under the blanket and gently wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. "Big sister has been good to me since I was young. She won''t treat me badly just because she''s a saint. "Otherwise, I will not let you off so easily!"


    "This servant understands." Peach Blossom answered in a muffled tone.


    "Oh right, how is An Xiang?" Yun Ruoleng changed the topic and suddenly thought of the little girl who had risked her life to protect him. She remembered that before she fainted, she was stabbed, and the wound seemed to be very heavy.


    "Prince told her to recuperate in Jingcheng before she returned to the capital." Peach Blossom used a handkerchief to wipe the tears off her face, "This servant will get you some water."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, but in his heart he thought that the prince''s face was cold, and his heart was warm. He treated his own subordinates extremely well, no wonder An Xiang didn''t even want to follow him, even if he was beaten to death.


    After Peach Red poured a cup of water and came back, Yun Ruoleng continued to ask: "Where are we now?"


    "Moon City." "The Prince said that he had some matters to take care of in the Moon City, so he decided to wait two days before leaving. It just so happens that it''s raining today, so the road won''t be easy, so we can play in the Moon City for two days."


    "But ¡­"


    "The prince has already ordered people to send back the Crimson Pearl Grass, don''t worry, Miss." Tao Hong thought about how her young miss could stay with the prince without any worries. Perhaps, she could get married when she went back.


    Thinking of this, Peach Blossom became extremely excited. Of course, she couldn''t say these words to her young miss.


    The door was suddenly pushed open, and Jun Qingshang walked in with a red lacquer tray. Seeing the master and servant standing together, talking about something, he frowned and asked: "How are your injuries?"


    "It''s already scabbed." Yun Ruoleng opened his sleeves as an ugly scar appeared on his pure white, jade-like lotus arms.


    Peach Blossom quickly put Yun Ruoleng''s arm under the blanket and said embarrassedly to Jun Qingshang: "This servant will take his leave."


    Yun Ruoleng was startled by Peach Blossom''s reaction, then looking at the man in black robes, he suddenly remembered, this was not the 21st century, but the Heaven''s Initiation.


    An era that did not exist in history, an age that shared the same ideas as ancient times.

 C103

    "How can a girl casually show her arms to others?" Jun Qingshang seemed to be very angry, as he placed the red lacquer tray on the small table beside the bed, and started berating.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned. During the twenty-first century, girls with bare arms could be seen everywhere in the summer months, and there were too many rules for coming here. Yun Ruoleng was very unhappy: "Why is Your Highness here?"


    "The medicine is ready. This was even boiled by you from the Crimson Pearl Grass you harvested. Jun Qingshang said as he took the medicine from the red lacquer tray.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, "Your Highness actually gave me such a precious medicine to make me soup to drink!"


    Jun Qingshang laughed without a care: "No matter how expensive the medicine is, it is used to treat illnesses. Since you were able to find so much, you naturally aren''t lacking in this aspect. "


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng really wanted to strangle this prodigal son of Jun Qingshang. The medicine she painstakingly harvested, was actually squandered on him like this! This was simply infuriating. Even if it was used on her, she would still be angry!


    Jun Qingshang immediately ignored Yun Ruoleng''s dark expression. He scooped up a spoonful of soup and passed it to Yun Ruoleng, saying gently: "Quickly drink, the effects won''t be good."


    Yun Ruoleng was so angry that her face turned green. She glared at him, grabbed the medicine spoon, and quickly sat up with one hand taking the medicine bowl. It would be a waste not to drink such a precious medicine, so she might as well drink it.


    With that in mind, Yun Ruoleng swallowed the bowl of medicine in one gulp.


    After drinking it, she regretted her decision. No matter how precious the medicinal ingredients were, they were still bitter. There really was no need to talk about the aftertaste of the bitter medicinal soup.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at Jun Qingshang with a bitter face, and Jun Qingshang handed over a sour plum. Yun Ruoleng did not care what it was, as long as it could not taste anything in his mouth.


    "Why is the taste of this dried fruit so familiar?" Yun Ruoleng threw another pill into his mouth and slowly chewed it. The more he ate, the thicker the spirit energy became.


    "You picked it back." Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, "It would have broken under such a hot weather, so I let someone marinate it until it turned into dried fruit. However, the spirit energy seems to have disappeared and the taste is not bad."


    Yun Ruoleng stopped chewing as her pure white, flawless face sunk a little. "Jun Qingshang! "You''re going too far!"


    "This King is trying his best to use the treasure, so it''s not a waste."


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was so angry that her face turned red, she felt that arguing with Jun Qingshang was just asking for trouble, and she had always lost to him.


    Yun Ruoleng angrily turned his face away, no longer caring about Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrow, the lady was still able to differentiate between the two.


    "Actually, I haven''t used up all the medicinal herbs." Jun Qingshang coaxed her with a good temper, "Because Jiang Zhu''s nature is rather strong, this king only took one leaf to add the medicine. You only used one stalk of it for the few you picked."


    Yun Ruoleng originally wanted to be angry, but it was rare for a proud and arrogant prince to explain himself. If he didn''t give her face, then he might just dump her halfway.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose: "I didn''t mean to blame you. It''s just that I suddenly heard that such a precious thing was eaten by myself, and felt that it was just a pity. "


    Jun Qingshang smiled faintly but did not speak a word. He then picked up a small plate of dried fruits and placed it in front of Yun Ruoleng: "I want to replenish some spirit energy."


    Yun Ruoleng did not refuse. Instead, he reached out and picked up the dried fruit to continue chewing. From time to time, his little eyes would glance at Jun Qingshang who was sitting beside him and looking at him.


    "This King still has things to do, so eat less. It''s time to eat." Jun Qingshang placed the dried fruit dish on a small table at the side, stood up and walked out.


    Yun Ruoleng took a dried fruit and watched him leave with a slight frown.


    She was not an idiot, Jun Qingshang''s sudden change really made her feel weird.


    Jun Qingshang came out of his room and heaved a sigh of relief. He was truly afraid that he would be unable to resist doing something to her.


    Jun Qingshang had completely forgotten about forcefully kissing Yun Ruoleng.


    After staying in Yue City for two days, Yun Ruoleng had fully recovered, and only a few shallow pink scars were left. Yun Ruoleng could not help but sigh at the power of the Shaman Energy in his body.


    Returning to the Regent¡¯s Mansion was already half a month away and Yun Ruoleng had long been impatiently wanting to return to the Minister¡¯s Mansion. However, since it was already night by the time he returned to the capital, he added another sentence from Jun Qingshang, "Trying to run before you have even completed your promise to this king?


    Therefore, Yun Ruoleng did not return to the Minister¡¯s Mansion, and instead went there.


    Water Spirit Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng propped himself up against his head, and dejectedly looked at the cloth in front of him. "Peach Blossom, what do you think I should do to embroider the flowers without being disliked?"


    "Then Miss will have to work hard." Peach Blossom nodded seriously, "Embroidery isn''t something that can be done overnight. If you don''t mind it, I''m afraid you''ll need some time to practice it."


    Yun Ruoleng was holding his head up just now, but after hearing Peach Blossom''s words, he immediately laid on the table.


    Yun Ruoleng laid on the table, looking as if he was about to die, causing Peach Red to laugh uncontrollably: "Young miss, if you really cannot learn embroidery, why not go and exchange some things with the Duke?"


    "He won''t agree." Yun Ruoleng waved her hand. If she could change a condition, she would have already changed.


    "Miss, why don''t you draw a pattern on the cloth?" Peach Blossom considerately poured Yun Ruoleng a cup of tea, "It''s hard to draw on an embroidery handkerchief, but it''s much simpler to draw using dye on a plain handkerchief."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, yes, this method would work, but he did not know if some stingy duke would agree. Yun Ruoleng asked Peach Blossom to prepare the dye. She decided that regardless of whether he agreed or not, once she was done with it, it would be fine even if he wasn''t satisfied.


    The man''s handkerchief was mostly plain, but a certain king wanted a handkerchief made personally by Yun Ruoleng, and even explicitly asked for flowers to be embroidered, leaving Yun Ruoleng to do whatever he wanted as to what flowers.


    To a grandmaster level painter like Yun Ruoleng, drawing a small picture was definitely not a simple task. Therefore, after Peach Blossom took the dye back from the embroidery workshop, she quickly drew a picture of the Sacred Witch Mountain with her handkerchief.


    Peach Blossom''s eyes instantly lit up when she saw this. "Young Miss, the King will definitely like this painting."


    Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, he turned the handkerchief over and drew on the spot he just drew. A handkerchief was finished. Peach Blossom passed a piece of cloth to Yun Ruoleng. "Miss seems to have forgotten this, you even promised your highness that you would give him a scented sachet."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the piece of dark blue cloth and the corner of his mouth twitched. "Are you sure you can draw something with this piece of cloth?"


    "Then it can only be black, purple, sapphire blue, or dark red."


    Peach Blossom waved the cloth in front of Yun Ruoleng, who covered his forehead and sighed: "Black!"

 C104

    "Oh." Peach Blossom took the scissors and cut out the fabric required for a scented sachet in a few strokes. She then slowly passed it to Yun Ruoleng, "Do you want to sew these sachet up first, or do you want to draw them now?"


    Yun Ruoleng did not reply, he had already picked up the pen and started drawing. The golden colored dye was embroidered on the black cloth and a coiling dragon appeared on the scented pouch, looking extremely lifelike.


    Yun Ruoleng drew on both sides of the cloth, one side was a tiger and the other was a dragon, he then used needle and thread to connect the cloth together, leaving a cut on each side, he then placed the prepared orchids into the scented sachet, and finally closed the entire scented sachet.


    Yun Ruoleng was satisfied with his masterpiece, and happily carried the red lacquer tray towards Shang Mo Pavilion.


    The lights in Shang Mo Pavilion were on, so Yun Ruoleng was stopped outside the pavilion by An Ying: "Seventh Miss, at this time, Prince is bathing, you should go ¡­"


    "Then I''ll wait here for a while!" Yun Ruoleng was thinking that after he finished giving the things to her, he could easily return to the Minister¡¯s Mansion tomorrow to take care of the woman.


    An Ying saw that Yun Ruoleng''s face was full of insistence and did not want to chase her away, so he led her to the side hall to sit.


    Yun Ruoleng sat in the side hall while waiting, but after a long time, Jun Qingshang still did not call him over.


    "An Ying, did your highness fall asleep in the bathtub?" Yun Ruoleng''s gaze continuously turned towards the door.


    An Ying felt that since the Seventh Miss was concerned, it was a mess. How could his master sleep inside the bathtub?


    This is nonsense.


    Even if An Ying had thought like that, he dared not say it out loud. He could only smile apologetically: "When you came, the Prince just called for people to prepare the bath water for you. He probably just started taking a bath now!"


    "It''s so troublesome to take a bath!" Yun Ruoleng muttered to himself as he continued to sit in his seat and play with his stuff.


    "¡­" An Ying was speechless, this was the first time someone said that a prince was troublesome.


    "Oh right, when will An Xiang return?" Yun Ruoleng suddenly asked, changing the topic.


    An Ying scratched his head: "This subordinate really doesn''t know, looking at her injuries when we left that day, I probably won''t be able to get out of bed for half a month."


    "It''s that serious?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, then thought that if it was not because of the purity of his Wu Qi, he probably would not be able to get out of bed for half a month. He could not help but be worried, "Didn''t you guys send someone to take a look?"


    "We all went through special training, so we don''t have to worry about injuries of this level. Furthermore, Master said that she did not do much, so we can consider it as her making up for it this time. "


    An Ying''s words were very obvious, he had been abandoned by Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes sunk, her expression turning ugly: "At the time, everything happened so suddenly, who would have expected that someone would assassinate him? In other words, during the assassination attempt, she risked her life to protect me.


    "Your subordinate does not dare speak carelessly of this grandpa''s decision." An Ying cupped his hands and did not dare to say half a word more.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned even more. Suddenly, he heard footsteps outside the door, and An Ying quickly disappeared.


    Why are you here?" "Jun Qingsheng was clad in a black robe, and there was a trace of surprise on his angular face. When he came out of his bath, he heard a sound coming from over here, and was about to take a look when this woman suddenly ran into his courtyard.


    "Gift!" Yun Ruoleng quickly reopened his eyes as his gaze started to wander.


    This man was truly a demon. If he stood there and didn''t do anything, he would be able to attract the attention of women.


    Jun Qingshang was satisfied with her dodging gaze, and her lips moved slightly: "You finished it so quickly? You aren''t thinking of fawning over This King again, are you? "


    "This time I''m serious!" Yun Ruoleng handed the tray over to Jun Qingshang and said, "I don''t know how to embroider, but I do know how to draw, can you take a look?"


    Jun Qingshang wanted to say no, but when he saw the Holy Mage Mountain, he shut his mouth again.


    "That''s good! I want to ask you something. " Yun Ruoleng said as he put the tray in Jun Qingshang''s arms.


    Jun Qingshang happily accepted the tray, and nodded without a care: "Go ahead."


    "When will An Xiang return?" Yun Ruoleng originally wanted to ask for''s help directly, but he thought that he would anger Jun Qingshang, so he decided to test the waters first.


    "Do you miss her?" Jun Qingshang''s expression unconsciously darkened.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head: "On the way here, if not for her, I wouldn''t have waited for you to save me."


    Jun Qingshang''s expression softened a little, and snorted coldly: "That is what she should do, why must you keep it in your heart?"


    "Your Highness, not everyone should treat you well." Yun Ruoleng was annoyed, what kind of person was this! Was it his duty to protect you with his life? What an arrogant man.


    Jun Qingshang''s sword-like eyebrows slightly knitted, "This king has raised her for more than a decade, and she can''t even protect you, what use does it have to her?"


    "But she''s just a girl." Yun Ruoleng was truly angry now, her phoenix eyes stared unwaveringly at Jun Qingshang''s handsome face, "We are both girls, why should she use her life to protect me? Let alone her unwillingness, even I feel that it''s unfair."


    "Leng Er..." Jun Qingshang suddenly stretched out his long arm and pulled the furious Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, then lowered his head slightly to sink into Yun Ruoleng''s neck. He took a deep breath and sighed, "This world does not have fairness or injustice; What should This King do with you? "


    Yun Ruoleng was stunned, his mind was in a mess, he... What was he trying to do?


    "Since you like her, then let her come back tomorrow." Jun Qingshang''s arm tightened a bit, as if he was trying to merge with her bones and blood. "But you have to promise this king one thing."


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes and subconsciously asked: "What is it?"


    "Bring An Yue along." Jun Qingshang was afraid that Yun Ruoleng wouldn''t agree, so he coldly threatened, "If you don''t take it with you, this king will make sure you will never be able to see An Xiang again!"


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng was speechless, why is he like that!


    "Do you agree or not?" Jun Qingshang had no intention to change his mind. He showed disdain towards Yun Ruoleng''s cat-like strength, and tightened his arms.


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s face turned red, she suddenly remembered that Peach Blossom was still there, and when she turned around, there was no trace of Peach Blossom.


    Yun Ruoleng was furious, she raised her leg and wanted to step on Jun Qingshang''s foot, but the other party had seen through her thoughts, before she could step on him, she had already moved her foot away.


    "Jun Qingshang!"


    "This King is here." Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, he liked the look of the lady who had exploded her hair, her small face was red, and her eyes flashed with anger, but he did not know, that her look, in his eyes, was extremely flirtatious.

 C105

    "Let go!"


    "Answer This King."


    "Haha ¡­" Yun Ruoleng suddenly froze, a brilliant smile on his face. He reached out his arms and wrapped them around Jun Qingshang''s neck.


    Jun Qingshang was startled by Yun Ruoleng''s actions, but after that, he became shocked. He loosened his hand to block the vital parts and retreated two steps: "Impudent!"


    Yun Ruoleng sneered: "Didn''t Leng Er learn it from Your Highness? Your majesty is playing a hooligan, Leng Er will only treat hooligans. "


    "Woman, you really aren''t willing to be taken advantage of." Jun Qingshang''s face darkened, luckily he had protected his vital points, if not his entire life would have been ruined by this woman.


    "Isn''t it just to get Leng Er to bring another person along?" "Take Leng Er with you tomorrow. As for An Xiang, I want to see her in half a month."


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, "Are you not afraid of this king spying on you?"


    "Don''t be afraid, I''ve done the right thing, what is there to be afraid of?" Yun Ruoleng yawned lazily as he said that, "It''s getting late, Leng Er is going to rest, Your Highness can do whatever you want!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang gloomily looked at the woman who had disappeared in the blink of an eye, and muttered in his heart, This woman''s power cultivation is becoming more and more superb, compared to Yun Qingyao''s ten years of bitter cultivation, this woman''s abilities are already comparable to hers.


    Yun Ruoleng used teleportation. Although he could only teleport four to five meters away, in Jun Qingshang''s opinion, he already had an extraordinary talent, because normal witch wouldn''t have had the time to cultivate for two to three years, so it was basically impossible for her to teleport.


    Yun Ruoleng panted as he returned to the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    What do we do, every time we see Jun Qingshang, our hearts would start boiling.


    "Miss, you''re back?" Tao Hong walked in and looked at Yun Ruoleng who was sitting on the bed with astonishment. She asked: "This servant left before you, why did you come back earlier than this servant?"


    "You don''t need to worry about that. Prepare some hot water. I want to take a bath." Yun Ruoleng did not know how to explain this, and quickly changed the topic.


    Tao Hong did not continue asking, and turned around to arrange for people to prepare hot water for Yun Ruoleng to bathe in.


    Yun Ruoleng sat on the bed for a long time, unable to calm himself. When Peach Blossom came in again, and saw that her young miss was focused on reading, he did not disturb her and adjusted the temperature of the water. "Young miss, everything is ready."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, he placed the book down and waved his hands at Peach Blossom, indicating her to go out. Peach Blossom nodded her head, in the past, the young miss did not allow anyone to serve her, so it was not strange.


    Yun Ruoleng walked to the back of the screen and began to undress. When he only had his middle clothes left, Yun Ruoleng directly jumped into the bath barrel.


    The water was neither hot nor cold, it made Yun Ruoleng, who had traveled for an entire day, feel very comfortable. His head was leaning against the wall of the bathtub, humming a small tune as he took a bath.


    He did not know if it was too comfortable, but Yun Ruoleng fell asleep after soaking in the bath.


    Jun Qingshang entered Yun Ruoleng''s room but did not discover Yun Ruoleng. Seeing that the lights in her room were not extinguished, he frowned.


    Jun Qingshang looked around the room, his gaze landed on the messy screen as he walked in, his face darkened.


    Yun Ruoleng slept soundly in the bathtub, the water under her chin flowed gently. Jun Qingshang reached out with his hand and fished Yun Ruoleng out of the bathtub, pulling the clothes from the side to place on her body, he hugged her onto the bed.


    The beauty was lying on the bed, causing Jun Qingshang''s heart to feel slightly hot. He slowly stood up to drink a mouthful of cold tea, but who knew that his sleeves would suddenly be pulled out? Lowering his head to look, Yun Ruoleng''s bare hands came out from the blanket and grabbed onto his sleeves, unwilling to let go.


    Jun Qingshang did not dare look at Yun Ruoleng, as he extended his hand and patted Yun Ruoleng''s hand lightly.


    Yun Ruoleng unhappily frowned, the hand holding Jun Qingshang''s sleeve loosened, but grabbed onto Jun Qingshang''s wrist, and placed it beside his face and rubbed it, "Mother ¡­"


    Mom? Jun Qingshang''s face was so dark that it looked like it was dripping with water. He lowered his head and looked at the Demon Claw that was grabbing his wrist.


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to be completely unsettled by his glare. He turned around, and using a lot of strength in his hands, he directly pulled the dazed Jun Qingshang off the bed.


    Jun Qingshang was slightly startled, as he looked at the woman below him. Her white inner clothes were dripping wet, as they stuck closely to her body, reflecting the fiery-red undergarment within. Jun Qingshang could clearly see the scene beneath the clothes, and the glint in his eyes deepened.


    "Woman!" Jun Qingshang looked at the woman below him who he did not know the victor of this meeting.


    Yun Ruoleng smacked her lips. She seemed to feel that it was a little cold and was constantly searching for warmth. Her arms unconsciously hugged Jun Qingshang''s waist.


    Jun Qingshang''s entire body froze. He recovered from the burning anger and used his internal energy to dry Yun Ruoleng''s clothes and the bed sheets.


    Seeming to feel that it was quite comfortable, Yun Ruoleng rubbed it against Jun Qingshang''s chest again. In the next moment, Jun Qingshang gave a charming smile as her fingers slowly caressed Yun Ruoleng''s back and pressed on her soft acupoints, causing Yun Ruoleng''s hands to slowly loosen.


    After being liberated, Jun Qingshang pulled up the blanket, and then laid down on the bed. She hugged the petite girl, and extinguished the candle.


    The next morning, Yun Ruoleng woke up and habitually nudged her under the blanket. Her eyes suddenly opened wide.


    This man was the Regent, Jun Qingshang?!


    Jun Qingshang opened her eyes slightly, she glanced at Yun Ruoleng calmly, then closed her eyes and hugged Yun Ruoleng tightly, and said: "Sleep a while longer."


    "Why are you here?" Yun Ruoleng''s face was filled with anger as she stared at the man in front of her. Although she didn''t care about these men and women''s defense, this man had silently come over. This was too much!


    Even if it is an offer... That''s up to you.


    Jun Qingshang seemed to understand Yun Ruoleng''s intentions, and laughed: "Leng Er, you were the one who pulled Ben Wang last night, and did not let me go. It was you who hugged this duke and said that you were cold.


    Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes slightly narrowed as she tried her best to recall what happened last night.


    She had always been an honest sleeper and had never drunk alcohol. How could she do such a thing?


    "Can''t remember?" Jun Qingshang smirked and used his hand to stroke Yun Ruoleng''s back as if he was playing a prank on him. "Do you need this king to help you remember your memories?"


    Yun Ruoleng replied angrily upon hearing: "No need! Your Highness, please get up! "


    However, Jun Qingshang shook his head, rubbed his chin on Yun Ruoleng''s soft hair and laughed softly: "I was so tired last night, this king needs to rest."


    Yun Ruoleng''s little face instantly flushed red. From the looks of her body, the two of them didn''t do anything last night.


    This man! Yun Ruoleng was furious, he bit Jun Qingshang''s chest.


    "Hiss ¡­" Jun Qingshang painfully lifted Yun Ruoleng''s head, "It''s a dog? You''re going to bite me when you get up? "

 C106

    "Who let you bully me!"


    Seeing that he had released one of his hands, Yun Ruoleng took a step back and kicked the dazed Jun Qingshang off the bed.


    "Bam!" The prince sprawled on the bed pedal, making a loud noise.


    "Miss, what''s wrong?" Peach Red heard the sound in the room and quickly asked.


    "I''m fine." Yun Ruoleng didn''t even look at the Jun Qingshang who had rolled on the ground. He got up and opened the bag that was closest to him.


    The regent was kicked out of bed? Jun Qingshang was stupefied, and then he looked at Yun Ruoleng with a cold face, only to see that she was freely wearing clothes. He could not help but be startled: "You ¡­"


    "You what you? Still not leaving? " Yun Ruoleng said angrily, thinking that after being slept by this man for another night, his heart was especially uncomfortable, his tone especially bad.


    It just so happened that Peach Blossom opened the door and walked in. When she saw him, she was so scared that her heart nearly jumped out of her chest.


    "Wang... Prince, are you alright? " Prince, Prince is sleeping with his mistress?!


    Jun Qingshang sat firmly on the bed. The beautiful eyes raised its head and said calmly: "Are you still not going to close the door?"


    Peach Blossom''s body trembled, she quickly closed the door and looked at Yun Ruoleng who was walking back and forth barefooted on the bed, feeling anxious. She quickly pulled her young miss to sit on the bed and covered her delicate feet with the blanket: "Young miss, please lie down under the bed for a while."


    "No, I''m not cold." Yun Ruoleng smiled and comforted her. Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw that Jun Qingshang had left with a dark expression. Who cares about the Regent? He would be kicked if he was kicked!


    Peach stood at the side, his face red. He couldn''t help but ask in a low voice, "Miss, you and Prince ¡­"


    "Nothing!" Yun Ruoleng quickly replied, not giving Peach Blossom any chance to gossip.


    Three days later, Yun Ruoleng returned to the Palace Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    Yun Shicheng was very happy to receive this news, and brought his people from the rear courtyard to welcome them.


    Yun Ruoleng got off the carriage, and looked at the people kneeling on the ground in front of him. He sneered, and without saying anything, he walked over to the Yun Qingyao kneeling at the entrance: "Why is elder sister at home?"


    Yun Qingyao was lifted up by Yun Ruoleng and frowned slightly, "Yesterday, I heard that you were coming back, so I came over to take a look. Seventh Sister, it''s impolite of you to act like this. "


    "The emperors of the past have given the most supreme power to the Virgin, not to kneel to the King or to the people. A prince like him dares to say something about you. " What a joke. She also had the right to make up for her past, so she knew of this sort of rule.


    Besides, a certain prince was visiting her room last night, and sending her back here to support her was just compensation.


    "Seventh sister!"


    "Seventh Sister sure is impressive. How dare she mock His Highness in such a manner?" Yun Yueyu, who was kneeling at the side, raised his head, and looked at Yun Ruoleng with eyes filled with poison.


    "What Leng Er said is right, Third Miss Yun is currently of high status, and according to the rules, she should not be bowing." A cold voice came from the carriage. "Does Miss Yun not understand?"


    "Your Highness, that''s not what words mean ¡­" Yun Yueyu''s arrogant attitude instantly disappeared and was replaced with a pitiful look.


    Tsk. Yun Ruoleng curled his lips, this woman knew how to act even more.


    "This official''s discipline is not strict, please punish me, your highness." Yun Shicheng, who was at the side, perspired profusely, as he was afraid that this lord would attack at the door.


    Jun Qingshang, on the other hand, did not make things difficult for Yun Shicheng.


    Yun Yueyu''s entire body shivered. She really wanted to sow discord, but she didn''t expect the Regent Prince to care so much about Yun Ruoleng. Yun Yueyu unwillingly answered, and buried his head, not allowing himself to show his emotions.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze fell on Yun Yueyu with a trace of coldness. Although the leader of the group did not say who sent them, she could guess that the people who wanted her life the most in the capital were only Lan Yu''er and Yun Yueyu.


    Since Lan Yu''er had offended the Regent, and she was still in confinement, then Yun Yueyu was the only one left.


    Moreover, only Yun Yueyu knew that he would definitely go to the Saint Wu Mountain to gather medicinal herbs.


    Yun Ruoleng swept a glance at the person kneeling down, and pulled Yun Qingyao along to the Minister¡¯s Mansion, not giving him the slightest bit of face.


    Yun Ruoleng left, and Jun Qingshang did not want to talk to the hypocritical man anymore, so he let An Ying carry the carriage and left.


    Yun Shicheng wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, turned his head, and glared at his eldest daughter: "From now on if you see Prince, speak less!"


    His Highness the Regent had great difficulty in taking a fancy to Leng Er. If he was ruined by Yun Yueyu, the foolish daughter, then the gains would not make up for the losses.


    First Madam''s eyes flashed, and she immediately stepped forward to explain to her daughter in a gentle tone: "Master, there''s no mistake with the words just now, that the way Leng Er treats the prince, will one day bring trouble to our family."


    Yun Yueyu was not really stupid, hearing what his mother said, he nodded immediately: "Yes, father, daughter is worried too. Although His Highness has spoilt Seventh Sister, he still hasn''t gotten married. If His Highness doesn''t like her in the future, then these mistakes will be fatal, Father! "


    "That''s right, master, you''re right." First Madam quickly agreed. The reason why First Madam was able to stay in the position of First Madam for a long time was because she knew what a man wanted. She had a good grasp of Yun Shicheng''s love for his future.


    "I know what I''m doing!" Yun Shicheng''s face darkened, he glanced at Yun Yueyu and turned to leave.


    Seeing this, First Madam heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and consoled her, "Yu''er, don''t take it to heart. Your father is such a person."


    Yun Yueyu nodded his head, feeling wronged, he tightened his fingers on the handkerchief that he was holding.


    Yun Ruoleng pulled Yun Qingyao and walked into the Minister¡¯s Mansion first, because they had not seen each other for almost a month, and Yun Qingyao had already seen his own little sister and had endless things to say: "Ever since I went to the Sacred Palace, I have been wanting to find someone to talk to. The people of the world only know that being a saint is very good, but I don''t know how tired a saint is."


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and listened, seeing that Yun Qingyao''s complexion looked good, he could not help but ask: "Have you treated the hidden ailment?"


    "What hidden disease?" Yun Qingyao shot a glance at her, and said, "The second day after you left, I personally made a trip to the Grand Hospital, but even the Judge was unable to find anything, he only said that it was because the weather was hot and the demonic fire was suppressing his body. After prescribing two pills, you can take them. "


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, but he still looked a little worried: "Then we have to be careful, if we send back the Crimson Pearl Grass, we can use it, don''t save it."


    "Yes." Yun Qingyao replied. He did not even bother to ask where the Crimson Pearl Grass came from.


    As they walked, they chatted about what had happened to them recently, and unknowingly, they came to the Songhe Hall.

 C107

    Yun Ruoleng pulled Yun Qingyao to a suitable seat in the Pine Crane Hall and chatted idly.


    Not long later, Yun Shicheng walked in, looked at his two daughters who were happily chatting, and spoke with dissatisfaction: "Since you''re back, don''t run around! Stay in your good home, Leng Er as well, your temper should be retracted, don''t provoke someone you shouldn''t have. "


    "Father, what do you mean?" Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly as he looked at Yun Shicheng''s sudden change in attitude. With a cold face, he said, "Leng Er has never offended anyone. No matter what, we can''t just throw away Miss Minister¡¯s Mansion''s identity, right? "


    Yun Shicheng''s brows sank. He wanted to reprimand him, but he was still thinking about his three daughters in the family. Right now, there was only one Yun Ruoleng who was close to the Regent Prince, and the words that came out of his mouth had become a little more gentle. "I only want you to be more respectful to the Prince, and not be willful."


    "Don''t worry Father, Leng Er and Your Highness are on good terms." Yun Ruoleng sneered. This father who sold women for glory was truly shameful.


    Yun Shicheng''s eyes flashed an unfathomable light, and said: "It''s a good thing that we have a good relationship, but you have to be careful, today you are obviously at the door losing face to the King, Leng Er ah ¡­."


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression was somewhat unsightly, his ears slightly moved, a light flickered in his eyes, and he asked: "Leng Er is back, could it be that father doesn''t have anything to say?"


    At this time, Yun Yueyu and First Madam walked in. After hearing what he said, they looked at each other, obviously prepared to sit down and watch the joke.


    Mrs. Luo, dressed in plain clothes, followed behind First Madam. She glanced at Yun Ruoleng, then lowered her head and sat at her proper spot, lightly sipping her fragrant tea, as if everything that happened here had nothing to do with her.


    "Say what?" Yun Shicheng was startled. Other than this matter, he had nothing else to say.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered: "Didn''t father know that I was ambushed on the road?"


    Yun Shicheng''s heart thumped. He naturally knew about this matter, and it was when the Regent sent the gift to Yun Qingyao. Under Yun Ruoleng''s gaze, Yun Shicheng revealed a fatherly look and nodded: "You are travelling together with the prince, father knows that there shouldn''t be any big matters."


    "Are you alright?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, and said, "I almost died. The sword was just a millimeter away from piercing through my heart, it was just that, in the time that Your Highness had, he had saved Leng Er. "


    At the time, she had thought that he would be accompanied by the Lord Regent, but what happened in the end?


    "Why didn''t you say so earlier, sister?" Yun Qingyao immediately became anxious. She really did not know about this, the person who sent the Scarlet Pearl Grass to deliver the medicinal herbs personally to her only said a few words, "Your highness is bringing Seventh Miss for a sightseeing, and will be back later" and then left.


    At that time, she didn''t think too much about it. After all, with the Regent''s ability, how could he not protect a girl?


    "Elder sister, don''t worry." Yun Ruoleng turned around and gave Yun Qingyao a comforting look, after which he turned to Minister Yun and questioned, "Is father not prepared to investigate this matter clearly for his daughter? After all, that person sent someone to kill their daughter today. It is very possible that it will be their father tomorrow! "


    "How dare you!" Yun Yueyu did not wait for Yun Shicheng to speak, and bellowed first: "You actually cursed father!"


    "Yun Yueyu, you didn''t arrange the assassins to be killed, why are you so excited?" Yun Ruoleng laughed disdainfully, "Even if my words are outrageous, it''s not your place to say it! Isn''t that so, Father? "


    However, Yun Shicheng looked amiably at Yun Ruoleng, as she was the treasure of the Regent King after all, and thus she had to be treated well. He glared at Yun Yueyu and said: "What Leng Er says makes sense, but it''s better if this matter does not alarm the emperor, since it is not a big deal."


    "Then does father mean to check or not?" Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes and asked.


    "Of course we have to check, it''s just that we don''t have to do it openly." Yun Shicheng coughed and said.


    Yun Shicheng thought that he could get rid of Yun Ruoleng like this, but instead Yun Ruoleng suddenly sneered: "An Yue, you heard me clearly, go back and tell His Highness, I''ll have to trouble His Highness to send some people over to help me."


    "No need!" Yun Shicheng immediately stopped him. If he invited his majesty the Regent, it would be hard to explain if he found out something. Turning his head to look at the nervous Yun Yueyu, Yun Shicheng slowly said: "Leng Er, this matter cannot be rushed."


    "Father wants to settle this case in private?" Yun Ruoleng''s whole body was releasing cold air, relying on Jun Qingshang as the shield, he was extremely arrogant.


    "Leng Er!" Yun Shicheng growled, looking at Yun Ruoleng''s persistent expression, he finally gave an order out of helplessness, "Hurry and send someone to find out who did this!"


    The steward was confused. He didn''t know where to start!


    "I don''t have anything to do with the others." Yun Ruoleng slowly said, his gaze still not leaving Yun Yueyu''s body. In the beginning, Yun Yueyu''s expression had only slightly changed, but she was confident and fearless. When Yun Shicheng finally agreed to investigate, her expression changed from a pleasant surprise to one of unease and unease.


    Yun Ruoleng was even more certain of his guess, and chuckled: "The only ones who have offended you are the Lan family''s third young miss, Lan Yu''er, and their eldest sister. Miss Lan is in confinement at the moment? "It''s impossible to come out, as for big sister ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng paused for a while. "Leng Er and Your Highness are both aware that Big Sis has always been a kind person.


    "Cloud ¡­"


    "Alright ¡­" After moving out Jun Qingshang, Yun Shicheng didn''t even have the right to object if he wanted to, he could only turn around and comfort his eldest daughter.


    After settling this matter, Yun Ruoleng and Yun Qingyao left with each other.


    "When will elder sister return to the Sacred Palace?" Yun Ruoleng pulled at Yun Qingyao unwillingly.


    Yun Qingyao reached out to touch Yun Ruoleng''s head: "When I''ve finished investigating your situation, I''ll go back."


    "Then when will I be able to see elder sister?" Yun Ruoleng was not very happy. According to Yun Yueyu''s method of not covering up his tracks, Yun Shicheng would probably be able to find out everything within a day if he put in a bit of effort.


    "Today, you are no longer as free as you were in the past, and it wasn''t too hard for you to see your sister. Tell His Highness that he can give you the command medallion." Yun Qingyao suddenly laughed, "Looking at Your Highness'' attitude today, you seem to care so much about your sister, why don''t you try to accept your sister?"


    Yun Ruoleng rebuked as he stared at Yun Qingyao, "What is elder sister saying? With your highness'' status, will he care about me? "


    "Is that true?" Yun Qingyao was in disbelief. Even though she was covered in cold air when she saw the Regent, she did not miss the gentleness that flashed through her eyes when she looked at her sister.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded resolutely: "It''s like this! He and I are using each other, so Big Sis shouldn''t think too much about it. "


    Yun Qingyao frowned, and did not continue this topic.

 C108

    At this moment, within the Hibiscus Courtyard, Yun Yueyu was in a panic, "Mother, what should I do?"


    "What does it have to do with you?" First Madam looked at his daughter who was walking around in circles in front of him.


    "Is that you?" First Madam pulled Yun Yueyu who was in front of her, looking nervous.


    Yun Yueyu paused, he originally wanted to say no, but looking at his mother''s nervous eyes, he unconsciously nodded his head.


    "You! I''m afraid your father won''t be able to let you off this time! " First Madam pushed Yun Yueyu away, clutching his heart and sighed.


    "Mother ¡­" Yun Yueyu panicked, her tears streaming down her face, showing her panic and helplessness.


    Looking at this kind of Yun Yueyu, the First Madam felt both angry and pained at the same time. In the end, he said: "Don''t be hasty, tell me first, who did you send to buy people from the Blood Alliance Pavilion?"


    "Book Ink." Yun Yueyu was a little afraid, "I''m afraid that Mo Shu has betrayed me, how about we ¡­"


    "I hope I can make it in time." First Madam sighed.


    However, these words were all heard by others.


    "As expected of the Regent''s son, An Ying Wei." After hearing An Yue''s report, the corner of Yun Qingyao''s mouth raised a little. He looked at Yun Ruoleng who was deep in thought and laughed, "How is little sister preparing?"


    "An Yue, go bring Mo Shu over." A trace of killing intent flashed past Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, since Yun Yueyu was being heartless, then don''t blame me for being unjust.


    An Yue nodded and left. Yun Qingyao pulled at her younger sister and asked: "Did you bring them here to torture me for my confession? Why not wait for First Madam to take action before she goes to save her?


    Yun Ruoleng lightly shook his head: "That would be very troublesome and would definitely attract attention. First Madam has put all her heart into this matter, so there is no need to disturb her. "


    Yun Qingyao looked at Yun Ruoleng, and shook his head while smiling: "Yun Yueyu is really screwed this time."


    "Of course, sister is not a good person." Yun Ruoleng laughed while covering her face with her hands.


    An Yue would be back very soon, and what he brought back was the trembling Mo Shu. Yun Ruoleng nodded his head in praise towards An Yue, and asked softly: "Mo Shu, have you ever heard of killing someone to repay their debt?"


    "This ¡­ this servant doesn''t know." Mo Shu raised his head with an innocent look, which did not arouse Yun Ruoleng''s sympathy in the slightest.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly, obviously not happy about her answer. He raised his head and looked at An Yue: "Do you have any way to make her say the answer that I want?"


    "Yes." An Yue coldly nodded his head.


    Yun Ruoleng playfully blinked his eyes, "Then I''ll leave it to you. I need an answer for an hour."


    "One stick of incense!" With these words, An Yue took Mo Shu and disappeared.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose, feeling a little awkward. Yun Qingyao suddenly spoke out: "Your Highness, are you really worried for your sister this time?"


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Yun Qingyao in confusion. "What? What''s he worried about me doing? "


    Yun Qingyao laughed and did not speak, seeing that his sister, the authority member, still did not know what the Regent King was thinking, nevermind, good things happen often, maybe one day when she was enlightened, she would understand his intentions.


    The half an incense worth of time had quickly passed and An Yue returned to Yun Ruoleng with the trembling Mo Shu in front of him, handing him a confession letter.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows after receiving it, swept his eyes over the contents of the confession, and gave it to Yun Qingyao.


    Yun Qingyao nodded, after sweeping his gaze over the evidence, he slapped the evidence on the table: "Little sister, let''s go find father!"


    "Wait ¡­" Yun Ruoleng held Yun Qingyao''s hand, and lightly shook his head at her. "Bring this girl to the Duke''s Palace for imprisonment, I want to see how our good father investigate this matter."


    The anger on Yun Qingyao''s face still did not subside as he asked with doubt: "Little sister, do you think that Father will shield you?"


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled. "Elder sister, just wait and see. However, since his father could not find it out, that did not mean that everyone could not find it out. For the next two days, Father still could not come up with an explanation, so we will personally go and find him. "


    Yun Qingyao thought about it and felt that what Yun Ruoleng said made sense. They had all grown up, so they had to see what this father''s attitude towards them was.


    After exiting the Jade Bamboo Garden, Yun Ruoleng looked at the busy maidservants and asked curiously while pulling a young maidservant: "What happened?"


    "No ¡­." "I''m fine!" The young maid looked at Yun Ruoleng as if she was looking at a ghost, she broke free from Yun Ruoleng''s hands and ran.


    "Stop!" Peach Blossom immediately became anxious. Her young miss was as beautiful as a fairy. What was the meaning of this little girl running when she saw her?!


    "No problem." Yun Ruoleng waved her hand at Peach Blossom: "Let''s return to the Ao Xue Yuan first!"


    "But Miss, those maidservants actually ignored you." Peach Blossom was really angry and grumbled in dissatisfaction.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head helplessly: "Wasn''t it like this in the past?"


    Peach Blossom instantly shut her mouth, but she was still very unhappy. Her Miss''s current status was different from before, how could those dog based people still dare to treat her like before!


    Yun Ruoleng did not take this matter to heart. Seeing that the maids were all from the First Madam and Yun Yueyu''s courtyard, he knew what they were looking for. With a snort of disdain in his heart, he brought Peach Blossom back to the Academy.


    There was only one main room, two side rooms, and two guest rooms. One side room was for Peach Blossom, the other room was for An Xiang, and there was even one room left for her, which was a little far from Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    "Peach Blossom, go and pack up the guest rooms. An Yue will be staying there from now on." Yun Ruoleng instructed as soon as he entered Ao Xue Yuan.


    "I''ll stay in the room next to yours." An Yue suddenly appeared in front of Yun Ruoleng, preventing Peach Blossom from moving.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned: "No! The Peach Blossom that''s next door has stopped. The Ao Xue Yuan is only so big; now, there''s only one guest room left. "


    "Then she''s going to the guest room." An Yue was an extremely cold person, his words did not carry a trace of warmth, "Your Highness has commanded me! We must protect you to the point where we can''t move an inch away from you. "


    "You, a man, living next to my Miss, would cause people to misunderstand." Peach Red kindly reminded him after hearing his words.


    "Then, the other side hall shall be vacated." An Yue''s attitude was very unyielding.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head, feeling a little helpless, he could only agree: "It''s impossible to get out of this situation today, since it''s a little late, how about we stay in the guest room for the night?"


    An Yue nodded his head, then disappeared without a trace in a flash. Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrows. If she didn''t remember the exchange of rooms, she really wouldn''t know if she was mistaken just now. An Yue''s Qing Gong had really reached the pinnacle.


    Two days of time passed in a flash. Yun Ruoleng had been staying at the Jade Bamboo Garden with Yun Qingyao these past two days.


    Of course, she didn''t forget to pay attention to Yun Shicheng''s movements.

 C109

    "Today is the third day. There doesn''t seem to be any movements from father''s side." Yun Qingyao''s face revealed a bitter smile, "Seventh sister, I''m afraid father will still care more about eldest sister."


    "Didn''t you already know the answer?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "The reason why Father cares about Yun Yueyu is because we, the sisters, have no one to rely on in the Lan family.


    "Seventh Sister ¡­" Yun Qingyao really wanted to stop Yun Ruoleng from talking. After all, it was wrong to talk about his father behind his back.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed awkwardly, this sister of hers had carried the ring too tightly, she did not know how to use it.


    "Elder sister, let''s go to the Pine Crane Courtyard now!" Yun Ruoleng laughed, then stood up and said to the air: "An Yue, I''ll have to trouble you to bring that lowly slave to the Pine Crane Courtyard, I will be useful at that time."


    "Alright!" Yun Ruoleng only heard one word, he did not feel anything else.


    Within the Hibiscus Courtyard, Yun Yueyu tugged at the First Madam and said nervously, "Mother, it''s been two days but we haven''t found that damned girl. She couldn''t have been taken away by Yun Ruoleng, right?"


    "Probably not." First Madam''s face did not look good either. Once Mo Shuang was taken away by Yun Ruoleng, the consequences would be dire. And now, Yun Ruoleng''s power seemed to be growing stronger and stronger. She wasn''t even sure if something like this would happen.


    "Mother?" Yun Yueyu pushed First Madam a little, and spoke with an unfriendly tone, "It''s been so long, haven''t you found him? "Are you attentive?"


    First Madam looked at Yun Yueyu in shock and asked. "Why do you think that way?"


    "Mother, you''ve been staying in the courtyard for the past few days and haven''t done anything. I''ve been feeling wronged ¡­" The more Yun Yueyu thought about it, the angrier he became. Tears the size of beans instantly rolled down his face.


    The expression in First Madam''s eyes darkened slightly as he looked at Yun Yueyu in disappointment, "Yu''er, I don''t know who is gossiping in front of you to provoke our relationship, but you have to know, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes are currently fixated on our courtyard. The more you''re worried, the more she''ll be able to follow along."


    "What do you mean, mother?" Yun Yueyu stopped crying and looked at First Madam.


    The First Madam did not say anything. At this time, someone came to report to the Mrs. Luo. The First Madam gave Yun Yueyu a glance. Although Yun Yueyu was unhappy in his heart, he still entered the bedroom.


    "First Madam is cool here." Mrs. Luo was dressed in white, her long hair tied up in a simple bun with a jade hairpin. She looked elegant and refined, completely unlike a thirty year old woman.


    First Madam swept a glance at the Ando women. Jealousy flashed in his eyes, then he smiled and said: "How come little sister is free to come to the Hibiscus Courtyard?"


    "I have nothing better to do since I''m free. I made some snacks in the kitchen and brought them over for you to try." Mrs. Luo and First Madam were both born in aristocratic families, with one being a direct descendent and the other a concubine. However, in the end, the two were of the same origin, so naturally they wouldn''t be as polite as they were to others.


    "I don''t have a good appetite today, take it back!" First Madam was completely focused on Yun Yueyu right now, so how could he have the heart to sit with his love rivals and eat pastries together?


    The Mrs. Luo was not angry, and laughed: "It''s good that your appetite is not good, the pastries this time have Crimson Pearl Grass from Seventh Miss, it is said to have the effect of grooming women, and this was brought back by the Seventh Miss with a slim chance of death, do you want to try it, elder sister?"


    First Madam''s eyes slightly flashed, but very quickly he covered it up.


    Mrs. Luo saw everything, and remembered it all silently. With a smile on his face, he placed the pastry in the hands of the servant girl behind him on the table, and got up to leave.


    Naturally, First Madam would not keep her, she only nodded as her gaze fell on the green pastries. No one knew what she was thinking about.


    After Yun Yueyu came out, he reached out and flipped the pastry on the ground, and said angrily: "Mrs. Luo is here to demonstrate his might to Mother, why did Mother leave this pastry behind?"


    "If we don''t stay, that means we are guilty." First Madam frowned, and looked at his daughter who had an angry look on her face and sighed, "When will you be able to hide your emotions? I have told you many times, no matter what you do, put your emotions on your face, and it will be easy for others to catch on."


    Yun Yueyu was also extremely anxious, his mouth full of nonsense: "Could it be that Mother will let her continue to be so arrogant?" Pausing for a moment, he then said angrily, "That''s true, that woman has already taken away the authority of the boss for almost a month now. Mother hasn''t even made the slightest move, I''m afraid she doesn''t have the ability to do so!"


    First Madam was so angry that she spat blood, her biological daughter actually saying such things to her, completely disregarding her face. Unfortunately, First Madam knew that he couldn''t explain too much to Yun Yueyu, because he couldn''t hide anything from this girl.


    "Mother!" Seeing the First Madam not saying a word, Yun Yueyu left angrily.


    And currently, in the Pine Crane Courtyard, Yun Ruoleng was leaning on a chair, coldly staring at Yun Shicheng. Yun Ruoleng had been sipping his tea, and from time to time, he would lift his head to look at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly, "Father, you have almost finished all the tea in your hand, do you have nothing else to say?"


    "What does Leng Er want to say?" Yun Shicheng put down his teacup and asked rather calmly.


    This old fox! Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "Father, did you forget about the investigation? If I forget, then my daughter will have to invite Jing Zhaoyin over. "


    "Isn''t it still under investigation? This investigation is not a casual matter, so we have to take it slow. " Hearing that, Yun Shicheng took out the excuse he had thought of.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head in rare approval, and said: "Investigating the case is indeed not a casual matter. It''s just that the more time passes, the more insufficient the evidence is, so Leng Er had already investigated it himself. "


    "You ¡­ Have you investigated properly? " Yun Shicheng frowned and asked.


    "What''s father so nervous about?" Yun Qingyao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly struck again at this time.


    Yun Ruoleng also coldly asked: "Father shouldn''t be hiding something right?"


    "What did Leng Er say!" Yun Shicheng''s face darkened. In truth, he really did not know who it was, but there had always been people he suspected, but he did not dare to be sure. More accurately, he did not dare believe it.


    Yun Ruoleng only swept a glance at Yun Shicheng, and laughed coldly: "Bring him up here!"


    Just as he finished speaking, a person whose entire body was covered in blood rolled in front of Yun Shicheng. Yun Shicheng was shocked and almost broke the teacup on the small table, "This ¡­ "What is this?"


    "Arrange for the person who assassinated me." Yun Ruoleng brought the teacup close to his nose and sniffed it, then asked: "Does father know?"


    "Who is she?" Yun Shicheng looked at the woman who was lying on the ground and shivering non-stop. Although he did not see her face, looking at her figure, he couldn''t help but think of the servant girl beside his eldest daughter.

 C110

    "Book Ink!" Yun Ruoleng''s lips curled up, and spat out two words without any emotion, after that she casually sipped on her tea and studied Yun Shicheng''s face.


    At first, it was normal for Yun Shicheng''s expression to change, as after all, he was an official who knew how to keep his emotions in check, but after hearing the two words "Mo Shu", his face first froze, then slowly darkened, and finally his entire face darkened: "Which Mo Shu?"


    "Isn''t father asking the obvious?" Yun Ruoleng immediately cut off the thought of denying it, "The first-rate servant girl beside Big Sis, Mo Shu."


    "Are you trying to find a random maid to slander your big sister?" Yun Shicheng was not stupid, in order to protect Yun Yueyu, he directly charged Yun Ruoleng with framing a sister.


    Yun Ruoleng''s father, whose face had been turned black and white, was laughing in anger, "Father is so biased, his own daughter is about to be killed and he almost didn''t come back, yet you didn''t find out the truth, and instead framed your other daughter."


    "Leng Er!" Yun Shicheng''s expression was somewhat angry, "Why didn''t I investigate it? Your father didn''t sleep well for several days because of this, and you still say that your father is biased. Do you have any conscience? "


    "Father didn''t sleep well for a few days because of his daughter, but because of something else. Father knows this very well." Yun Ruoleng was not angry at Yun Shicheng''s words, but mocked him instead, "I think that the new Aunt Xu who just entered is really pretty handsome."


    Yun Shicheng''s face was extremely ugly. Being exposed by his own daughter on the spot, Yun Shicheng felt extremely embarrassed, and slapped his hand on the table: "Impudent! Is that what you should be talking about? "


    "If you want people to not know, then do it yourself." Yun Ruoleng put down the teacup in his hand and passed two pieces of paper to Yun Shicheng: "I have the witness and evidence, what should father do?"


    Yun Shicheng originally wanted to suppress this matter, but Yun Ruoleng actually gave him the evidence, this time he really had no way out.


    "Call the young miss over!" Yun Shicheng slammed the two pieces of paper on the table and roared angrily.


    The servant who was standing guard outside did not dare to be negligent when he heard the noise, and could only invite Yun Yueyu to the Pine Crane Courtyard.


    When Yun Yueyu came, not only was she here, she was also here with First Madam and Mrs. Luo.


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at the person who entered the room and turned her head to say a few words to Yun Qingyao. Yun Qingyao then turned to look in the direction Yun Ruoleng pointed in, and lightly pouted.


    "Father, is something the matter?" Yun Yueyu walked into the Song He Hall, then smiled and threw himself beside Yun Shicheng, and asked gently.


    Yun Shicheng glanced at his obedient eldest daughter, then looked at his third daughter who had been drinking tea and treating others coldly. In the end, his gaze landed on his sharp-tongued little daughter, and he sighed: "Are you going to find someone to assassinate your sister?"


    "What is father saying?" Yun Yueyu innocently looked at Yun Shicheng, her almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears, looking extremely wronged and wronged, as though tears might fall at any moment.


    Yun Shicheng''s heart softened as he promptly patted the back of his eldest daughter''s hand and comforted her: "If there isn''t any, there isn''t. If there is, then I will apologize to your sister.


    Apologize? Yun Yueyu looked at his father in astonishment, and quickly lowered his head. It was simply impossible to apologize to Yun Ruoleng, unless she died, it was simply impossible!


    "Killing for my life? Although I''m not dead, how can I overlook this matter with just a word of apology?" Hearing Yun Shicheng''s words, Yun Ruoleng coldly said, "If an assassin comes to one day and fails to assassinate you, will you make her apologize and let the tiger return to the mountain?"


    Yun Shicheng''s face immediately darkened, the First Madam did not wait for Yun Shicheng to speak, he glared at Yun Ruoleng and lectured: "Leng Er, you''ve already said some unlucky words when you just came back! Those who don''t know how much you wish for something to happen to your father! "


    "Although the words are unpleasant, what Seventh Sister said is not wrong." Yun Qingyao said indifferently, it looked like everything was unrelated to her, but in terms of scheming, she did not lose to anyone, if not how could she have lived in the hands of the First Madam for so many years.


    "Even so, we can''t use the old master as a comparison!" First Madam glared at Yun Qingyao who interrupted him unhappily. This girl was really an ungrateful person. Even after so many years, she still could not feed him well.


    "Your Highness, so what if Leng Er dares to say it? Yun Ruoleng disdainfully swept his eyes across First Madam, "If father does not give Leng Er an explanation today, then Leng Er will only be able to live in the Jing Zhao Yi or the Board of Justice''s house."


    "Are you threatening me?" Yun Shicheng''s eyes flashed with a cold light, the daughter was getting harder and harder to control.


    "So what if I threaten you?" A cold voice came from the door, interrupting the conversation in the hall.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, why is he here?


    When An Yue mentioned about this, didn''t An Yue say that he didn''t see the Regent? How did this fellow know? Yun Ruoleng did not think that Jun Qingshang would come to the Minister¡¯s Mansion for no reason at all.


    "It is said that Ruo Er has suffered, this king is here to take a look." Jun Qingshang walked over to Yun Ruoleng''s side and lovingly rubbed her soft hair.


    Yun Ruoleng patted the Demon Claw on the beginning unhappily, and said while gritting his teeth: "Your Highness, please speak properly!"


    "Alright." Jun Qingshang retracted his hand, and an unnoticeable smile flashed across his sharp and clear face. When he turned around to face Yun Shicheng, his eyes were filled with ice. "The testimony and witnesses were personally interrogated by this king.


    Yun Shicheng and Yun Yueyu both felt that it was not good, so Yun Shicheng agreed respectfully. But Yun Yueyu was different. After hearing Jun Qingshang''s words, she discovered that there was a person kneeling in front of her. Wasn''t this person the Mo Shu that she had been searching for for for two days and two nights?


    Yun Yueyu felt his mind was in a mess, his face turning paler and paler.


    "What''s wrong with elder sister? Is there something wrong? " Yun Qingyao was really the family''s professional blade replacement, in fact, after Jun Qingshang came, everyone''s eyes were on him, and completely ignored this young lady. But after being reminded by Yun Qingyao, everyone''s eyes now rested on Yun Yueyu.


    "No, nothing ¡­" Yun Yueyu said that she was fine, but her dazed look and her subconscious taking a step back made people even more suspicious.


    "I''ve said it before, you don''t need to do things unless you''re on your own." Yun Ruoleng leaned on the chair, and left a sentence behind.


    Yun Yueyu asked for help as she looked at her mother. Even though she didn''t trust her own mother a lot, she knew that only her own mother could save her now.


    First Madam''s face did not look good either, but her thoughts were quite mature. Quickly, her face was filled with smiles, and she said to Jun Qingshang: "Your highness came all the way here just for this matter, and you aren''t afraid of being tired. "Servants, serve the prince some tea."

 C111

    "Minister¡¯s Mansion only requires the time it takes to make a cup of tea or to walk. First Madam, aren''t you exaggerating a bit?" Yun Ruoleng did not give the least bit of face to First Madam.


    First Madam immediately became embarrassed, but he quickly covered his laughter: "Those who come are guests, I have to have a cup of tea."


    "The First Madam just wants to delay time. Let''s talk about this after the Regent has left, okay?" Yun Ruoleng''s mouth was still not an ordinary poison, as it specifically poked out points from others.


    First Madam''s expression was really unsightly now. After having his plans exposed by Yun Ruoleng two times in a row, his heart was filled with evil flames. "Yun Ruoleng, is this how you treat your elders?"


    "Could it be that the First Madam was hit by my words and turned from shame to anger?" Yun Ruoleng said carelessly.


    "You!"


    "Enough!" Yun Shicheng looked at First Madam, who was so angry that his face was ashen, and frowned slightly. He then looked at Mrs. Luo, who was sitting quietly to the side, and the dissatisfaction in his heart towards First Madam grew even deeper.


    "Master ¡­" Seeing Yun Shicheng staring coldly at First Madam, First Madam''s heart tightened and he subconsciously shut his mouth.


    "The person has been found. What does Lord Shang Shu mean?" Jun Qingshang''s expression was calm, but it was filled with a sense of majesty.


    Yun Shicheng''s entire body trembled. Only now did he remember that Jun Qingshang was still waiting for an answer so he quickly cupped his hands in a fawning salute, "This kind of trivial matter does not require Your Highness to do it."


    "Father, are these things useful?" Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows at Yun Shicheng. This father was someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong.


    In this regard, Yun Ruoleng was extremely disdainful.


    "Yu''er!" Yun Shicheng''s face became serious as he stared at Yun Yueyu, "Do you admit your wrongs!?"


    "Father, Yu''er is right." Yun Yueyu''s heart was thumping, thinking that as long as he didn''t admit his mistake, there was nothing they could do. After all, there were many servants who would lie to him.


    "You ¡­" Yun Shicheng glared at Yun Yueyu who did not know what to do, and spoke coldly: "You know your wrongs and will not change, your crimes are even greater! Do you accept it or not? "


    "Father, I didn''t do anything. How do you want Yu''er to recognize me? Is he going to force it? " The more Yun Yueyu said, the more wronged he got. He looked pitifully at Jun Qingshang, "Your Highness, please don''t listen to Yun Ruoleng''s one-sided story. Yu-er has a bad relationship with her, it''s inevitable that she will take the opportunity to slander Yu''er.


    When he said that, not only did Yun Shicheng''s face turn dark, even the face of the First Madam, who was standing at the side, turned dark.


    "You didn''t do anything?" Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Yueyu with interest.


    "She really didn''t do anything." Yun Ruoleng chuckled, "She''s just using money to buy the murderer, that''s all. She just sat behind the leader''s seat and did not make a move."


    "Buying a killer in the Heavenly Awakening Realm is also considered a crime of murder." "Since ancient times, the crime of buying murder has always been defined as murder, even if it didn''t succeed, it would still be the same, because he already had this thought in his mind."


    "Then, Your Highness, what kind of punishment does she feel she should be subjected to?" Yun Ruoleng smiled at Jun Qingshang as if there was no one around.


    "How about a thousand cuts?" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows slightly.


    "Cruel."


    "Then why did the Emperor bestow a single white silk?"


    "You''re giving me too much face."


    "What does Ruo Er want?"


    "Didn''t she like to play the zither?" Yun Ruoleng held onto his head and asked tentatively, "How about ten fingers on a needle?"


    "Ruo Er is indeed different from others." Jun Qingshang''s usually cold face suddenly had a trace of a pampered smile, but it quickly dissolved into nothingness. With a cold face, he stared at Yun Shicheng, "Master Shang Shu, what are you doing looking at me?"


    The two of them talked about the punishment of Yun Yueyu as if they did not see it, and simply did not see the dumbstruck expression of the person seated, Jun Qingshang turned his head and did not give Yun Shicheng the slightest amount of face.


    Yun Shicheng took a deep breath, "Then let''s do as Leng Er says! Someone! to take the young miss down and put her on a needlepoint. "


    Yun Yueyu''s entire body trembled, and was so scared that it went limp. First Madam extended his hand to stop the person who was pulling Yun Yueyu: "Master, this matter has not been investigated, you cannot be directly convicted!"


    "First Madam, I know very well whether you know or not." Yun Ruoleng leaned on the chair, his face filled with Evil Qi, laughing until First Madam was scared out of his wits.


    "What, what did you say?" First Madam said incoherently, "I, I don''t know anything."


    "Big Sis, are you very unconvinced?" Yun Ruoleng did not directly answer First Madam. Instead, he got up and slowly squatted in front of Yun Yueyu, and said with a smile that was not a smile, "You really want to ask, why did I discover the ink book so quickly, right?"


    "Actually, on the day I returned, I had left An Yue by your side, so that he could watch over you. Thus, he had reported every single one of your actions and words to me, and it doesn''t matter if you don''t admit your guilt or not. Since Your Highness has already convicted, you will still be guilty if you''re not guilty."


    Yun Yueyu was not an idiot. She should know this logic, so she no longer had any other requests.


    "You ¡­ "You ¡­"


    "Quack quack quack." Jun Qingshang frowned unhappily.


    "You''re not taking it down yet!" How could Yun Shicheng dare to ignore this lord? Seeing that First Madam was blocking him, his face immediately darkened. "First Madam doesn''t report this to you, but thinks in front of the Hibiscus Courtyard for three months! After the execution of the punishment, the young mistress will stay at the Voice Pavilion.


    "Yes sir!" The person executing the punishment was the most capable person by Yun Shicheng''s side. Right after he finished speaking, he left with Yun Yueyu and First Madam.


    When Yun Ruoleng saw this scene, he sneered in his heart. This father of his was truly a snob.


    At this moment, Yun Ruoleng felt that hugging Jun Qingshang''s leg really wasn''t bad.


    Under the blazing sun, Yun Yueyu was being pushed down to the ground by a few wives. The butler stood beside her and looked at Yun Yueyu with a stern expression, while An Ying stood to the side with a face full of killing intent, coldly watching from the side.


    "Execute the punishment!" the housekeeper said, glaring at the hesitating wives at the side as he glanced at the embroidery needles they were holding.


    The two granny''s hands trembled, and did not dare to move forward. After all, Yun Yueyu was a young miss, if they were to attack too heavily, they would get their revenge.


    "Are you trying to disobey the orders of the prince?" An Ying coldly swept his eyes over the two wives.


    The two granny only felt that they had fallen into an icehouse, cold to the point that their bodies were trembling. Although they did not dare to offend Yun Yueyu, they did not dare to offend His Highness the Regent!


    In terms of pros and cons, they felt that it was better not to offend the regent.

 C112

    As a result, the two women stared at the cold air on An Ying''s body. One of them grabbed Yun Yueyu''s hand and used a needle to prick her finger.


    Ah!" A feeling of pain followed. When had Yun Yueyu ever experienced such pain? She screamed in an instant.


    An Ying frowned slightly, he felt that this voice would affect the Duke''s mood. He extended his hand, grabbed the towel hanging around the wife''s waist and stuffed it into her mouth, "Continue!"


    The two grandmothers trembled. Not daring to stay any longer, they pulled out the needles and continued to prick them.


    The needle was able to destroy a person''s hand without any injuries. Yun Ruoleng did not want to let Yun Yueyu die so easily, so why not choose this method that could make her heart hurt the most, and also destroy the thing that she cared about the most?


    Yun Ruoleng and Yun Qingyao walked out and looked at Yun Yueyu who was being tortured under the scorching sun, and nodded their heads to him in satisfaction. He praised in his heart: The people that are working around Jun Qingshang are really good.


    An Ying''s eyes lit up. He had seen this Seventh Miss very clearly, this woman was the king''s reverse scale.


    Therefore, An Ying clearly knew that it was more important to curry favor with Yun Ruoleng than his own master.


    "Wuwuwu ¡­" Seeing Yun Ruoleng and the others walking past them, Yun Yueyu subconsciously wanted to open his mouth to scold them, but he couldn''t do anything.


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrows, she did not even bother speaking to her, and directly left with Yun Qingyao. The Mrs. Luo that followed them out came to a stop in front of Yun Yueyu, but she did not have a trace of sympathy, she only sneered: "It''s useless for Big Miss to stare at Seventh Miss.


    "Mmm mmm ¡­"


    After saying that, the Mrs. Luo turned and left without even turning his head back. Yun Yueyu''s heart ached so much that his face creased, but no one sympathized with her, and even more so, no one dared to sympathize with her.


    Yun Yueyu''s almond eyes were filled with tears, she looked at An Ying pitifully, hoping that he would not be so heartless. But after looking for a long time, An Ying was like a statue, not moving an inch, and she did not care about her delicate and touching appearance at all.


    When Yun Ruoleng and Yun Qingyao returned to the Jade Bamboo Garden, they were both in a good mood. It was already the end of the summer and the weather had also become a lot warmer, so Yun Ruoleng made Peach Blossom make some iced green bean soup to drink while chatting with Yun Yueyu.


    Yun Yueyu talked for a while until he felt sleepy. Then, Yun Ruoleng took his leave and returned to his own Academy, but just as he entered, he saw a beautiful scenery.


    Yun Ruoleng stood at the doorway and looked at a man in black robes standing under a banyan tree. His face was as fair as jade, his eyebrows were thick and starry.


    "Your servant greets the prince."


    "You''re back?" Jun Qingshang waved his hands at the peach blossom, and slowly walked towards the dumbstruck Yun Ruoleng. Seeing that she still had not recovered her senses, the smile on her face grew even wider.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked her eyes, she was almost blinded by her smiling face. Until a strong arm wrapped around her.


    Yun Ruoleng came back to reality in a daze, she quickly realised something, but unfortunately for her, it was already too late, as she was currently in Jun Qingshang''s embrace.


    "You, let go of me ¡­" Yun Ruoleng pushed at Jun Qingshang''s chest in panic.


    The feeling of his hands was not bad, and Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but pause when he saw it.


    "I''m not letting go!" Jun Qingshang was stubborn, he confined Yun Ruoleng in his embrace.


    Yun Ruoleng could not see the smile that flashed past his eyes, and her delicate eyebrows knitted slightly: "At the entrance of this courtyard, you''re hugging me like this ¡­ Jun Qingshang, what are you doing! "


    Before Yun Ruoleng could finish speaking, she rose into the air and subconsciously hugged onto Jun Qingshang''s waist in fear.


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s lips unconsciously raised upwards. Holding Yun Ruoleng in his arms, he lightly tapped the tip of his feet against the wall as he sat down.


    Yun Ruoleng was stupefied. The seven to eight meter tall wall, he lowered his head to look at the empty alleyway below him. His face was ashen: "Your Highness, are you crazy?"


    Yun Ruoleng glared at Jun Qingshang angrily. Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrow, seeing her furious look, he could not help but reach out to pinch her little face. "It''s said that you can''t stand as high as you can, isn''t it good for me to show you the scenery outside the walls?"


    "I think you''re really sick!" Yun Ruoleng pushed Jun Qingshang away forcefully, his body swaying, "Ah ¡­"


    Jun Qingshang supported her slender waist snappily. "Don''t move about carelessly."


    "Let me down!" Yun Ruoleng was enraged, but did not dare to move anymore.


    Jun Qingshang didn''t say anything, she only looked at Yun Ruoleng''s beautiful little face seriously, causing Yun Ruoleng''s hair to stand on end. Her delicate eyebrows slightly rose: "What are you looking at?"


    "Seeing that Seventh Miss looks ordinary and has a bad character, I''m afraid that no one will ever dare to marry again." Jun Qingshang said in a serious tone.


    "Jun Qingshang!" Yun Ruoleng''s face darkened, he raised his hand and pushed Jun Qingshang away. Not caring about whether he would be injured from the fall, he directly jumped off the wall.


    Jun Qingshang reacted quickly, seeing that she was about to jump, he extended his hand and grabbed her hand, pulling her into his embrace, then looked at the struggling lady: "Don''t move."


    "I''m ugly, why did you save me!? "Let go!" Yun Ruoleng''s tiny heart suffered a blow, as she angrily pushed at Jun Qingshang''s chest.


    Jun Qingshang''s brows twitched, his arm tightened around Yun Ruoleng as he was tightly trapped in his embrace. Yun Ruoleng was strangled by him until she felt pain, but she was so stubborn that she didn''t want to make a sound. Jun Qingshang felt helpless as he pressed his forehead against hers, forcing her to look at him: "Are you angry?"


    "Humph!" Yun Ruoleng did not care about him.


    Jun Qingshang frowned, seeing that she was ignoring him, he chuckled: "You have a temper."


    "Pain ¡­" Yun Ruoleng smashed his head against Jun Qingshang''s head, the pain caused his tears to roll in his eyes.


    Jun Qingshang snappily laughed: "She really is a silly woman." As he said that, he gently rubbed Yun Ruoleng''s red forehead.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, seeing that Jun Qingshang looked easy to talk to, he quickly changed to a pitiful look: "Your Highness, let''s go down, if someone sees us then."


    It was rare for Jun Qingshang to see Yun Ruoleng give in, hence he was exceptionally proud in his heart.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, before he could even react, he was already on the ground, after that he suddenly pushed Jun Qingshang away, turned and ran.


    Jun Qingshang looked at the empty embrace, then looked at the woman who was running faster than a rabbit.


    "Peach Blossom, block the door and don''t let anyone in!" Yun Ruoleng ran into his room in a hurry just in time to see Peach Blossom standing at the door.

 C113

    Peach Blossom looked at her young miss innocently. Without waiting for her to ask what happened, she looked at Jun Qingshang, who had landed in front of her like the wind, and said in shock, "¡­ "My lord."


    Jun Qingshang did not care about Peach Blossom, and directly walked into Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    Peach Red opened her mouth, and when she thought about Jun Qingshang''s dark expression, she could not help but shiver.


    After Jun Qingshang stepped into Yun Ruoleng''s room, he conveniently closed the door and laid on the bed. He thought that it was peachy and did not say a word. Yun Ruoleng only reacted when a hand touched her shoulder: "If you have something to say, just say it."


    "Yun Ruoleng." A voice as calm as a zither resounded in the room.


    Yun Ruoleng''s body stiffened. He slowly turned his head back to look at the man standing in front of his bed with a murderous look on his face. "You ¡­"


    Jun Qingshang smirked and sat on the edge of the bed. The beautiful eyes slightly perked itself and revealed itself in a flirtatious manner, "Are you trying to seduce this king?"


    "What nonsense are you talking about!" Yun Ruoleng sat up straight like a carp, his eyes full of anger, "Does Your Highness really like to barge into her room?"


    "This King is looking for you to take responsibility for this." Jun Qingshang smiled, the beautiful eyes carried a dangerous light.


    Yun Ruoleng retracted his neck and became slightly cowardly: "Responsible? "In charge of what?"


    "You escaped after sleeping with This King. Do you think you should take responsibility?"


    After Yun Ruoleng heard it, he sneered: Let''s not talk about the fact that this little girl is sleeping in the same bed as Your Highness, even if I did something, this little girl would be at a disadvantage, okay?


    "Then This King will take responsibility for you." Jun Qingshang suddenly moved his body forward, his handsome face appearing right in front of Yun Ruoleng, causing him to jump in shock.


    "Your majesty has self-respect!"


    Jun Qingshang frowned, the small hands on his face were soft and weak, suddenly he extended his tongue to scratch Yun Ruoleng''s palm. Yun Ruoleng quickly retracted her hand, and raised her leg, preparing to kick Jun Qingshang again, but unfortunately, she did not succeed this time.


    "You''re going too far!" Yun Ruoleng struggled to free her leg from Jun Qingshang''s devilish claws, but unfortunately, she could not leave.


    "This King has serious business with you." Jun Qingshang suddenly released Yun Ruoleng, and said suddenly: "This king sees that you have become a lot stronger recently, so how about you help this king draw a picture of a beautiful woman sitting on a lotus?"


    "Why?" Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang with a puzzled expression. He, a dignified prince, would believe in Buddha?


    "The empress dowager believes in buddhas. The one sent over not long ago didn''t have enough Shaman Energy, so it can''t live for long." Jun Qingshang did not hide anything. He felt that between him and Yun Ruoleng, there was no need to hide such a small matter.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at this Regent, who was known as the "Cold-faced King of Hell", in shock. He did not expect him to be such a filial child.


    "Ruo Er is intelligent, he will definitely draw an even more perfect picture." Jun Qingshang did not seem to see her shocked expression and said with a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at him in annoyance. Guan Yin''s Seaside Lotus Diagram was indeed easy to draw, but it would take a lot of effort to use his Shaman Energy.


    "Are you unwilling?" Jun Qingshang frowned, his emotions couldn''t be seen clearly.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: "No, it''s just that if I want to draw better, I need to get sufficient time. Is His Royal Highness anxious to wait? "


    "In twenty days it''ll be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the palace feast won''t be lacking. When that happens, you can just directly offer it to the empress dowager."


    Mid-Autumn Festival wanted to enter the palace? Yun Ruoleng did not know about all these, and the fact that First Madam was not causing a ruckus, made it such that she did not know about it yet.


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng nodded, then suddenly narrowed her eyes: "Has Your Highness finished?"


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s lips stiffened when he received the answer he wanted. He looked at the little face that changed its expression even faster, and the corner of his mouth slightly twitched. "You don''t want to see this duke so much?"


    "Your Highness sat down to drink tea and chat, I naturally welcome you." Yun Ruoleng paused, a look of displeasure appeared on his face, "It''s just that His Highness has been too excessive at times!"


    Is it too much? Jun Qingshang rubbed his nose, he did not think so ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng did not give Jun Qingshang the slightest bit of face. While Jun Qingshang was not paying attention, he kicked his leg: "Your highness, the great Regent, is like a retainer."


    "Hmm?" Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to react, Jun Qingshang stretched out his hand and pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace. While she wasn''t paying attention, he took a punitive bite of her pink lips.


    Yun Ruoleng cried out in alarm as she pushed his face away. Her phoenix eyes stared angrily at the mischievous man: "Your Highness!"


    "He really is a wild cat." Jun Qingshang locked her in his embrace, and the corner of his mouth slightly rose, "She''s still not familiar with me."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng was speechless. When did she become a cat?


    Yun Ruoleng was too lazy to correct his words, she extended her hand to push Jun Qingshang away: "Prince has been really free recently, playing with little girls when there''s nothing to do, is it that interesting?"


    "Interesting." Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, the fingers that were distinct enough to split apart Yun Ruoleng''s back, instantly stopping Yun Ruoleng''s pushing motion.


    Jun ¡­" Your Highness, can we not cause trouble? " Yun Ruo Leng felt that her tongue was about to break into a fight. She was afraid that if she didn''t say the right thing, this'' Cold-faced King of Hell ''would deal with her.


    Jun Qingshang lowered her head and looked at Yun Ruoleng, who was as obedient as a kitten, frightened and immobilized. She pursed her lips and let go of his arm, "This king still has things to do, let''s end it here for today!"


    After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, he left without the slightest hesitation. Yun Ruoleng sat in front of the bed, still in a state of shock.


    Yun Ruoleng patted his chest, he felt that the two of them did not do anything to offend this master, but this master was extremely proud, and did not know what the fuss was about, so he turned around and ran away.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t even realize it himself. Recently, she had always liked to look for people from the Regent¡¯s Mansion when doing things, so she wasn''t used to not seeing him for a few hours.


    After Jun Qingshang ran out from Yun Ruoleng''s place, he immediately returned to the Regent¡¯s Mansion. After entering, there were people who said that an unexpected guest had arrived at the mansion. Jun Qingshang walked towards Shang Mo Pavilion with a gloomy face, and the servants who came to report broke out in cold sweat.


    Jun Qingshang''s face could be said to be extremely dark and gloomy, even An Ying, who was following closely behind, was smart enough to fall back a few steps, and was deeply afraid that he would be implicated.


    "Watch outside." After Jun Qingshang finished this sentence, he lifted his leg and walked in, and the heavy door slowly closed behind him.


    An Ying shrugged his shoulders, looks like another person was about to run into with misfortune, who knows if this person would be able to leave Shang Mo Pavilion alive.


    Two consecutive days of low pressure from the Regent¡¯s Mansion caused the inside of Shang Mo Pavilion to be completely silent. No one knew what was happening inside.

 C114

    At this moment, within the Jade Bamboo Garden.


    Yun Ruoleng pulled on Yun Qingyao''s hand with reluctance. Her phoenix eyes were filled with tears, but she was stubborn enough to not let it fall.


    Yun Qingyao looked at her pitiful appearance, and gently sighed. "It''s not like I can''t see you, why are you so dejected?"


    "Elder sister, it will be a long time since we''ve seen each other after you left this time. Little sister, I can''t bear to part with you!" Yun Ruoleng shook his head and looked at Yun Qingyao pitifully.


    Yun Qingyao shook his head helplessly: "Didn''t I already tell you? You can enter the sanctuary when you receive the Lord Regent''s handwritten message. "


    It was fine if they did not mention Jun Qingshang, but the moment they mentioned him, Yun Ruoleng''s hair stood on end and he exploded with rage: "Who wants to beg him! He was a villain! This little one! "


    "Seven ¡­" Seventh sister, why is the Regent so petty? " Yun Qingyao looked at the furious Yun Ruoleng with a smile in her eyes. Why does she think that her sister is so cute?


    "He is tyrannical, unreasonable, childish... "In short, he is a villain." The more Yun Ruoleng said, the more confused he became, until he finally came to a conclusion.


    Hm? Yun Qingyao felt that the Regent King did not have much authority in his sister''s hands.


    Glimmers danced in Yun Qingyao''s eyes as she pursed her lips: "Just say these words in front of me, don''t go talking about them everywhere."


    "I know that!" Yun Ruoleng let out a light snort, and quickly revealed a small expression that was filled with reluctance, as though she had been abandoned by her master: "Third Sister, why don''t you bring me along?"


    "No way!" Yun Qingyao didn''t really approve of Yun Ruoleng going to the Sacred Palace. After all, even though he was a saint, there were still a lot of people below who were eyeing that place covetously.


    The reason why she allowed Yun Ruoleng to request orders from the Regent was because she wanted to borrow the Regent''s hand to protect her sister. I can protect her again.


    Yun Ruoleng lowered his head slightly and watched Cui Ying tidy up Yun Ruoleng''s things one by one, then unwillingly sent her to the carriage that was going to the Sacred Palace.


    Standing at the Minister¡¯s Mansion entrance, her phoenix eyes revealed a shallow sense of worry. It was not that she didn''t understand why Yun Qingyao didn''t want her to go with him; it was precisely because she was worried that she wanted to go there.


    "Miss, let''s go back!" Tao Hong saw Yun Shicheng bringing his wife and concubine into the Palace, then looked at her young miss and softly reminded her.


    "Let''s go to Mo Zhan." Yun Ruoleng regained his senses, but started to walk out of the Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    Tao Hong turned her head to look at the figure that was getting further and further away from the Minister¡¯s Mansion, and followed hesitantly: "Miss, should we not say anything?"


    "No need." Yun Ruoleng felt that there was no need to explain too much to Yun Shicheng. On the contrary, it would be easier to reveal his own strength if he explained too much.


    "But Miss ¡­"


    "Where did all this nonsense come from!" Yun Ruoleng was slightly displeased and stopped her from speaking.


    Peach Red puckered her lips in grievance. Wasn''t she afraid that the old master would cause trouble for the young mistress again? The young mistress actually thought that she had too much to say. How sad!


    Mo Zhan arrived very quickly, but when Yun Ruoleng stepped into Mo Zhan''s room, he discovered that there were a lot of people inside, and even some rooms were almost full.


    Zhen Jun saw that Yun Ruoleng had arrived, dropped his work, and respectfully cupped his hands towards Yun Ruoleng: "Miss is free to come today, do you want to enter the private room?"


    "No need." Yun Ruoleng''s gaze swept across the small shop and realised that there was only one painting out of the two that he sent over yesterday. The sadness that Yun Qingyao had left a moment ago had lessened, and he instructed, "I''m just taking a look, go back to work!"


    "Alright, I''ll go take a look at the other ones." Zhen Jun smiled and left.


    Yun Ruoleng brought Peach Blossom out as he strolled around leisurely. From time to time, he would stand under a painting and admire it for a while before saying a few words to Peach Blossom before continuing his journey.


    "Leng Yun!" A deep, magnetic voice came from behind her.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face darkened, he turned and looked at the man who called him, only to realize that he did not recognize him, and asked: "Young Master is calling me?"


    "So this lady is really Leng Yun!" The man wore white clothes, and his hair was tied up in a jade crown. What was most unforgettable was his face with its deep facial features.


    A pair of unfathomable eagle eyes, yet it gave off a feeling of unruliness and unruliness. Yun Ruoleng looked away, thinking to himself, this person is definitely not simple.


    "Lady Leng?" The man saw that her expression wasn''t good, so he called out softly, "My surname is Feng Dong, and my name is Zi Mo."


    "Greetings, Young Noble Feng. May I know why Young Noble Feng has stopped this little girl?" Yun Ruoleng quickly returned to normal and asked in a neutral tone.


    "Miss can just call me Son Mo." The man had a pair of unfathomable eagle-like eyes, but gave off a feeling of unbridled unruliness.


    "Yun''er?" The man saw that she was not looking well so he asked softly, "Can I call you that?"


    "No way!" Yun Ruoleng glared at the man he was familiar with, her phoenix eyes narrowed, "Who you are is not important, but I am not familiar with you!"


    "The girl is right." Feng Dong did not feel embarrassed to be rejected. He smiled lightly towards Yun Ruoleng, opened up a painting that was hanging on the wall, and praised: "This painting is really even more beautiful than the original one."


    "Of course!" Yun Ruoleng was not modest at all, his face was brimming with confidence.


    Feng Dong''s hands moved. He did not expect that Yun Ruoleng, a young girl, would not know how to be tactful. However, her actions caused others to feel disgusted with her.


    "Look at the works here, I still have things to do, so I''ll be leaving first." Yun Ruoleng''s expression slowed down, it was her who was overthinking it, she was really just here to buy paintings.


    Feng Kou saw that Yun Ruoleng was truly leaving and anxiously stopped him: "Wait. Although the painting is beautiful, it lacks something. Can you tell? "


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, he stared at the drawing thoughtfully for awhile, then shook his head.


    This was his own painting, it was very difficult to find the problem.


    "Although the mountains and rivers are good, they lack a bit of their charm."


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows furrowed even more deeply. "I only heard that your words sounded mysterious, but I didn''t know that there was still some meaning to them. How do you intend to explain young master? "


    "Since ancient times, there has been a saying of ''charm''. Could it be that the young lady doesn''t know of it?" Feng Dong smiled and began to explain the importance of the word ''melody'' in the painting.


    Yun Ruoleng had completely forgotten what he was here for, it was only after he finished speaking that Yun Ruoleng came back to his senses and nodded at Feng Dong: "Young master is truly knowledgeable, this little girl admires you."


    "The ''Spirit'' in the lady''s painting has been caught very well. It can be said that it has never been seen before and never been seen again. However, this'' Yun ''is a bit lacking." Feng Dong looked at Yun Ruoleng meaningfully.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled but did not say a word, and nodded thoughtfully. Peach Blossom was dizzy from what Yun Ruoleng had said, and her eyes kept moving back and forth between them.

 C115

    "Young Master is right." Yun Ruoleng did not feel uncomfortable because others had questioned her work, but instead openly accepted it.


    This kind of bearing did not belong to a woman. Feng Dong was surprised for a moment, and then, he looked at Yun Ruoleng curiously: "You''re not angry?"


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled. "Why should I be angry when someone has pointed out the inadequacies in order to make my work even better?"


    Feng Dong did not expect her to say this. He looked at her in surprise for a while before saying, "I''m afraid that even the men of this world do not have such a kind heart."


    Yun Ruoleng covered his face and chuckled, with a look of complete disbelief. Feng Dong saw that she did not believe him and did not say much. He cupped his hands and said, "Miss still has some matters to attend to. I will come again next time."


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded towards Feng Dong, then turned around and called for Peach Blossom to leave.


    After Yun Ruoleng left with Peach Blossom, a servant appeared beside Feng Dong, who had a fair and cute appearance. Standing behind Feng Dong, he asked in confusion: "Why is Leng Yun a girl?"


    "Very simple." Feng Dong looked at the disappearing figure with interest, "Everyone in the capital knows that Leng Yun is the third young miss of the Minister¡¯s Mansion, and Mo Zhan is filled with Leng Yun''s paintings. Just now, the shopkeeper was so respectful to her, who else would have such face other than her?"


    The attendant suddenly realized what had happened and gave Feng Dong a thumbs up. "This grandpa is really smart."


    "Your grandpa has always been smart." Someone raised his head, waved his fan, and left.


    "¡­" The manservant suddenly felt that his master had been cheated by Leng Yun.


    Yun Ruoleng brought Peach Red and walked toward the Minister¡¯s Mansion. Along the way, she seemed to be deep in thought.


    Inside the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Jun Qingshang''s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot in the kitchen. Standing in front of the desk, An Ying found it difficult to breathe.


    "Capture him back to This King!"


    "Yes sir!" An Ying was afraid that he was a step too late to escape, he cupped his hands and replied, then turned and ran.


    Jun Qingshang''s entire body was releasing cold air. Not only was the study room filled with energy, even the entire Duke Palaces could feel the signs of a storm approaching, to the point that even the servants of the Duke Palaces did not dare to speak. After doing what they were doing, they hid far away, afraid that Jun Qingshang would see the thorns.


    An Ying returned after less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn. When he returned, he was empty-handed and his back was empty. Without waiting for Jun Qingshang to flare up, he knelt down first.


    "He ran away?" Jun Qingshang''s voice was like ice water in a cold pond, chilling to the bone.


    "Yes ¡­" An Ying lowered his head, not daring to look at Jun Qingshang''s face, as he was afraid that his master would turn her rage onto him.


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes and stared at An Ying who was kneeling on the ground with eyes as sharp as a tiger or leopard: "A monk can run away from a temple, but I have to see him before dusk!"


    "Yes sir!" An Ying heaved a sigh of relief. It was already fortunate that the Duke didn''t lose his temper on the spot, at least he still had time to look for someone.


    "Go and call An Yue back." Jun Qingshang said coldly as he watched An Ying get up.


    An Ying replied again, he turned and ran, he was really afraid that his master would vent his anger on him later.


    The moment Yun Ruoleng returned to Ao Xue Yuan, he heard a burst of noise coming from outside. Yun Ruoleng, who was about to quietly cultivate, unhappily frowned as he stood up and looked through the window, just in time to see An Ying, who was quietly running into Ao Xue Yuan.


    Yun Ruoleng suspiciously furrowed his brows. Although An Ying''s martial arts could not be compared to Jun Qingshang''s, he could still be considered a top-notch expert. Naturally, he wouldn''t say anything about Qing Gong, but could actually hear him clearly.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to become curious, An Ying also saw Yun Ruoleng.


    Seeing his foolish appearance, Yun Ruoleng immediately laughed out loud: "You don''t have to walk on the road in this courtyard. If you want to walk on the roof, aren''t you afraid of being treated like a thief?"


    An Ying scratched his head stupidly: "I am here to look for An Yue, I don''t want to disturb young miss."


    Yun Ruoleng heard a bit of the question, and laughed: "People who know about it say that you are looking for An Yue, and people who don''t know about it think that you are here to have a secret affair with An Yue!"


    "That... That Seventh Miss sure knows how to joke around! " An Ying felt that he could no longer stay here. If he continued to stay, he would probably be angered to death by Yun Ruoleng.


    The corner of An Yue''s mouth twitched, and he flung An Ying''s hand away. However, he turned around and said to Yun Ruoleng: "Your Highness, if you have any business with this subordinate, don''t run around without me."


    The smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face stiffened slightly. "When did I run away?"


    "Just now!" An Yue felt that Yun Ruoleng was someone restless. If he had nothing to do, he could just leave.


    "How can I run around like that?" Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows slightly. He did not expect that the usually cold secret guard would control it so widely.


    An Yue was too lazy to bother with all these, and turned to leave with An Ying. This action of ignoring him made Yun Ruoleng jump up and down in anger, she decided to teach him a lesson when he returned!


    After An Yue followed An Ying back to the Regent¡¯s Mansion area, he clearly felt a wave of invisible, low pressure rush towards his face, and subconsciously glanced at An Ying who was beside him. An Ying shrugged and mouthed at him, then quickly disappeared.


    An Ying was startled, just now, An Ying''s words seemed to mean "Seventh Miss." Since the King did not see Seventh Miss, shouldn''t he be angry?


    An Yue frowned, he looked at the door that was slightly ajar and was a little afraid, he was afraid that the Duke would vent out his anger on him later.


    "Hurry up!" The door opened, and a low pressure immediately gushed out. An Yue was even more worried, but he did not dare to retreat, and could only grit his teeth and walk in.


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes coldly swept over the An Yue who was kneeling down respectfully in front of him: "Who did Yun Ruoleng meet when he went out today?"


    "Dongling Idle King Phoenix Diagram." As soon as An Yue finished speaking, he clearly felt the pressure in the room decrease even more.


    "How did you see it?"


    After An Yue thought for a few seconds, he recounted the events that happened today, causing the temperature in the room to drop even further. Especially when An Yue said his last sentence: "Miss Yun seems to like him a lot."


    "You like it?" Jun Qingshang''s face was so dark that it looked like it was about to fall. With a wave of his hand, the cup on the table directly fell to the ground: "An Ying!"


    "Your subordinate is here!" An Ying, who thought he could escape this calamity, braced himself and walked in. When he felt the pressure in the room, even his heart was trembling.


    "Where is the person This King wants?"


    "I''ve already found him. It''s just that he ¡­ he isn''t willing to return to the manor." An Ying did not dare look into Jun Qingshang''s eyes as he replied hesitantly with his head lowered.

 C116

    "Go back and continue watching!" After Jun Qingshang sent An Yue away, he stood up from his seat and squinted his eyes dangerously, "Why is he unwilling to return to the Duke Palaces?"


    "The Leisurely King said that our house is filled with the scent of a man''s sex. He doesn''t want to come. Even if he wants to go, he has to go to a place like the Yirong Courtyard to enjoy the warmth of a country." An Ying felt that he was insulting his master''s ears, but since his master wanted to hear, he could only try his best to tell him.


    Jun Qingshang smiled upon hearing this, "Since he likes it so much, why don''t you get some people to send more girls over. It would be best if you could send all of the best girls in the Yi Hong Courtyard over!"


    An Ying''s heart trembled, this expression of his master must be trying to trick that idle king again, right?


    An Ying did not dare delay any further, and immediately went ahead to complete the task.


    Jun Qingshang''s mood had lightened quite a bit. He lowered his head and was about to read the imperial reports, but he discovered that his mind was filled with that small, stubborn shadow. He had read a few times already for the time it took to drink a cup of tea, and he didn''t even know what he had read.


    Jun Qingshang threw the paper in his hand onto the table, then stood up and walked out.


    This time, it was just right for lunch. Yun Ruoleng sat at the main seat and drank a bowl of bone soup. Peach Red stood beside her and waited quietly, looking harmonious and natural.


    Suddenly, Yun Ruoleng heard a light sound coming from outside, he put down the bowl in his hands and called out: "An Yue!"


    After a long while, An Yue, whose face was covered by a mask, walked in unwillingly from outside: "Miss, do you need something?"


    "You didn''t come like this." Yun Ruoleng supported her head with both hands, pouting with her small mouth as she muttered, "Although I''m a bit cold, I won''t disobey, and even more so won''t talk back."


    "¡­" An Yue was speechless at her complaints, but he had no choice but to deny it. At the start, he thought that the Duke only wanted him to help out with the task, but didn''t expect him to stay here.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed, then pushed the bone soup out and asked: "Don''t you think it''s hot on such a hot day with a black cloth on your face?"


    "It''s not hot!" An Yue was extremely arrogant and dainty. After coldly rejecting him, she turned her face away from Yun Ruoleng and didn''t even look at him once.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, stood up and pounced towards An Yue, his hands moving extremely quickly.


    But An Yue was also not an easy target, he dodged her flying pounce and jumped far away, vigilantly staring at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng turned and pounced towards An Yue again. Who knew that he would only need to take a few steps before he directly threw himself into a sturdy embrace? Lowering his head to take a look, his entire body froze. The corner of his mouth slightly twitched. "Why are you here?"


    "What are you doing?" Jun Qingshang seemed to like this kind of giving a hug, but when he thought about how this woman would actually throw herself at another man, the smile on his face immediately froze, and his expression immediately turned cold.


    Looking past Jun Qingshang''s shoulder, Yun Ruoleng realized that An Yue, who was standing there, had already disappeared. I was only looking at An Yue to see what he looked like, do you have to defend yourself like this? "


    "You ¡­" Jun Qingshang heard Yun Ruoleng''s words and felt a little helpless, as if he was going to eat something, "What''s so good about An Yue? to be as beautiful as This King? "


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, he then extended his hand to push Jun Qingshang away, and asked: "Why does Your Highness have such an unprecedented cold house?"


    "This King can''t come?" After Jun Qingshang looked at her, he felt a lot more at ease and also started to feel naughty.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted: "Although the Minister¡¯s Mansion is not the manor of a large clan, it is still an official''s house, how can you go in and out of it as you please? Your majesty is trespassing. "


    "Could it be that the entire world is filled with monarchs?" Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, he then extended his hand and pulled Yun Ruoleng who was about to escape, and hugged onto his chest, "The Minister¡¯s Mansion does not belong to the Heaven''s Initiation?"


    Yun Ruoleng stared angrily at Jun Qingshang, and placed his hand on''s chest: "You scoundrel! It is unbefitting to cuddle with someone as they speak! "


    "This King likes it." Jun Qingshang said indifferently.


    Yun Ruoleng was furious, she raised her leg and was prepared to attack his lower body, but Jun Qingshang had already prepared for that, his long legs slightly spread out, quickly blocking Yun Ruoleng''s attack, his mouth revealed a smile: "Ruo Er, it''s time to change your move."


    Yun Ruoleng almost gnashed his teeth as he roared, "Jun Qingshang, you''re shameless! There will always be people coming in and out of this door. If Your Highness continues like this, don''t mention that my reputation is unpleasant, but your reputation as a Regent won''t be any better! At that time, let''s see which family''s young miss dares to marry a scoundrel like you! "


    "Ruo Er''s words are so unpleasant to hear." Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows slightly, and laughed, "Let''s not talk about whether they dare to say anything, even if they dare, the young mistresses from the aristocratic families would still be willing to marry into the Duke''s Palace. After all, I am very handsome, without a single concubine in the palace, and I don''t even have a maid."


    Yun Ruoleng scoffed, and suddenly looked at Jun Qingshang suspiciously, and sighed: "Shouldn''t Your Highness be secretly checking the doctor? Could it be... Is there a problem? "


    Jun Qingshang''s face turned dark, this woman!


    Yun Ruoleng took the chance and slipped out of Jun Qingshang''s imprisonment like a fish. He waved his sleeves and left in a flash.


    Jun Qingshang, on the other hand, stood there silently for a long time, his face turning darker and darker. Who taught Ruo Er these things?


    If they found out, they would definitely punish them severely.


    Peach Red stood at the door, and watched as a certain prince walk away with a face full of anger and a face full of anger. She helplessly sighed in her heart, this time the prince seemed to really be angry, and looking at his expression, one could tell that the people from Regent¡¯s Mansion might be in trouble.


    Tao Hong silently prayed for the person with Regent¡¯s Mansion in her heart, and then walked into Yun Ruoleng''s room: "Young miss, if you treat your highness like this, you will anger your highness."


    "I''m not wrong!" Yun Ruoleng finished the last mouthful of soup and licked her pink lips, "Was the truth wrong? How false that man should live. "


    "No ¡­" xiaojie, did you misunderstand something about the Prince? " However, she did not go far, and could faintly hear Yun Ruoleng''s words, so she explained in a worried tone, "The entire capital knows that the Regent has never been close to a woman since he was young, but his body is not a problem."


    Yun Ruo Leng looked at Peach Blossom unhappily: "You actually believe what others say? Don''t you have a mind? Also, have you ever seen nobles without a concubine or a room in the capital? "I don''t believe it. He is the regent, and no one puts a woman in his bed.


    "But that ¡­"


    "He''s not a Willow, how can he not have a woman!" Yun Ruoleng''s face became more and more unsightly, "Peach Blossom, who actually sent you here?!"


    "This servant has followed Miss since she was young. Life is Miss''s man, death is Miss''s ghost, and she is always loyal to Miss, so she wasn''t sent by anyone." Peach Blossom kneeled on the ground and said in a choked voice.

 C117

    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng deliberately asked with a cold face.


    She really didn''t like to discuss about Jun Qingshang, because when she mentioned him, Yun Ruoleng felt very upset.


    "This servant does it for the Miss''s own good. Before, when I met the Regent, the First Madam and the Eldest Miss always bullied you, and the Master did not care. Besides the Third Miss protecting you, no one else dares to protect you."


    "Now that we have the protection of the Regent, can you not anger him?" Tao Hong no longer wished for Yun Ruoleng to be able to live with her forever, as long as her young miss didn''t offend the Regent.


    Yun Ruoleng lowered his eyes for a moment, and then sighed. He waved his hand, and quickly finished the porridge in his hand, before leaving.


    Peach Blossom saw that her young miss seemed to have nothing to do with her and felt upset. She opened her mouth, but in the end decided not to talk too much. Watching Yun Ruoleng leave, Peach Blossom sighed in her heart.


    When will Miss understand this servant''s heart?


    Because the attempt on Yun Ruoleng''s life had failed, the face of the imprisoned Yun Yueyu turned pale. He held a soft whip in his hands and whipped the servant girl violently, causing her to curl up on the floor. She did not dare make a sound, but continued to protect her face.


    Yun Yueyu''s heart was warped after he was locked up. He couldn''t help but want to destroy her every time he saw the beautiful girl, and this pitiful servant was the same. The more she protected her face, the more Yun Yueyu hated her and her attacks became heavier.


    "Miss, be careful of your own body." Rui Ling, who had been serving Yun Yueyu since she was young, could no longer stand it any longer, so she reminded Yun Yueyu in a small voice.


    "You do it!" Maybe because he was tired, Yun Yueyu threw the whip in his hand to Rui Ling, then left a sentence behind before he walked over to the small swing at the side and sat down.


    Rui Ling felt that this whip was just like a hot potato. She had only wanted to advise her master not to cause any deaths, who knew that it would be misunderstood.


    "What are you doing?" Yun Yueyu sat on the swing, staring coldly at Rui Ling, "If you don''t want to do it, then scram!"


    "Miss ¡­" Being stared at by Yun Yueyu, Rui Ling''s heart trembled, and in the end, clenched her teeth and muttered, "You can only blame Seventh Miss! It was she who caused Eldest Miss to become like this. "


    The young maid slightly raised her head, her lips pursed. Her face was the size of a palm and was covered in blood and dust. She looked battered and exhausted, but her pair of watery phoenix eyes were particularly attractive. It was unknown if it was because this girl had the same pair of phoenix eyes as Yun Ruoleng that he liked to cause trouble for her.


    The young maid glanced at Rui Ling, not speaking. She only clenched her fists tightly, betraying her inner thoughts.


    Yun Yueyu did not notice this, and only coldly reprimanded with dissatisfaction: "Rui Ling!"


    Rui Ling looked at the young maid on the ground and suddenly kneeled down. She quickly said, "Miss, this servant thinks that if we keep on beating her, someone will die."


    "Do you know what you''re talking about?" Yun Yueyu did not expect Rui Ling to plead for the servant girl. She squinted her eyes and revealed a sinister cold expression.


    "This servant and mistress grew up together, I have never begged anyone to harm Miss." Rui Ling seemed to be determined to plead for an unremarkable maid, so she gave her young miss a look.


    Yun Yueyu was startled, she glanced at the servant girl on the ground, then her expression relaxed a little and nodded: "Alright, looking at the relationship between master and servant for so many years, I will not care anymore."


    Rui Ling heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and ordered someone to bring the young maid into the woodshed, then stood quietly by Yun Yueyu''s side.


    Although Yun Yueyu''s temper had become very cruel, he was still somewhat lenient towards Rui Ling. Seeing that no one was around, he asked, "Why did you help her plead for mercy?" Yun Yueyu knew that Rui Ling was not a person who would casually help others.


    "Miss, do you know that once a person is saved in despair, they will feel grateful towards that person?" She then lowered her head and whispered into Yun Yueyu''s ears, "I feel that I can use this point to counterattack Seventh Miss."


    Who did Yun Yueyu hate the most? There was no other way but Yun Ruoleng. Rui Ling was very smart. She had always been able to catch her master''s attention, and had always been in the position of a maidservant for many years.


    Hearing that, Yun Yueyu''s eyes lit up, and his eyes darkened: I''m sealed, how can I take revenge!


    Seeing her master''s discouraged look, Rui Ling knew that it was her turn to fight. She quickly squatted in front of Yun Yueyu like a normal flower to explain to him: "Don''t you think this is a good opportunity?"


    "What do you mean?" Yun Yueyu frowned in puzzlement, he had already been locked up, where would he get the chance to do so?


    "At this time, what did Miss do to the Seventh Miss, no one could suspect you, because you are in confinement."


    Rui Ling''s words immediately solved the doubt in Yun Yueyu''s heart, and his heart was especially comfortable. He took off a bracelet on his hand and gave it to Rui Ling: "Consider it my reward."


    "Miss Xie!" Rui Ling happily received the bracelet, secretly deciding that in the future, she would have to be even more diligent in pleasing this young miss.


    Yun Ruoleng stayed in the small book room for another day, and when he came out it was just time for dinner. Yun Ruoleng seemed to be in a good mood, as she used another half a bowl of rice, making Peach Blossom extremely happy.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Peach Blossom helplessly. This girl was always worrying for nothing, even if she used half a bowl of rice she would still be able to jump up happily.


    "Miss, do you want to go to the garden to eat and drink?" Peach Red was not afraid that Yun Ruoleng would run into any trouble outside the door. Sometimes, she even hoped that Yun Ruoleng could walk around the Ao Xue Yuan.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: At this time, if I were to meet someone I don''t want to meet, why would I look for trouble?


    Peach Blossom did not continue. She nodded, cleaned up the dishes, and left the room. Not long after, Peach Blossom ran in, her almond eyes sparkling. "Miss, can you guess what this servant saw when I went out?"


    "See what?" Yun Ruoleng did not have the mood to play riddle games with her.


    Peach Blossom''s interest was not interrupted by Yun Ruoleng. She reached out and pulled Yun Ruoleng away.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned and followed him out.


    The autumn day was getting shorter, Yun Ruoleng was pulled out of the room just as night fell, the sky still had a faint orange color. However, the most important thing wasn''t the weather, but the one meter tall iron cage in the middle of the courtyard.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned: "An Yue, why did you bring the White Tiger over to me?"


    In fact, An Yue''s heart was in a mess. He didn''t know why the little emperor had gone crazy today, but he had to give Yun Ruoleng a white tiger that was half a year old. At this moment, he was very embarrassed to be asked such a question. "It was given to him by the Emperor."


    "The Emperor ¡­ the Emperor?" Yun Ruoleng was almost choked to death by her own saliva, "Who sent it?"

 C118

    "Four top-notch experts from the inner palace will be sent straight to the yard. No one has been disturbed." An Yue paused for a moment, and continued, "Before I left, I left an imperial edict saying, ''If you feel wronged, close the door and let Xiao Bai go, the consequences will be dealt with by the royal uncle."


    Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched a little. This brat was really mischievous, but being born in that position, no one in the world would dare to bother with him anymore.


    "Miss, this servant thinks that this little white tiger is very understanding. How about we go closer and take a closer look?" Her peach-colored eyes shone, wishing that she could immediately pounce on him.


    Usually, when girls saw these fierce beasts, they would hide far away in fear. However, Peach Blossom was an exception.


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at her, walking to the side of the steel cage and carefully examining the half-grown white tiger.


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s gaze, the White Tiger coldly turned its body around and turned its head to the other side.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose, raised his head and joked: "Why do I feel like he''s like you!"


    "Hmm?" An Yue looked at Yun Ruoleng suspiciously, as he did not know what she wanted to do.


    Yun Ruoleng pursed her lips and laughed, glancing at the proud and pampered White Tiger and then looking at the arrogant and pampered An Yue, "Look, didn''t their master already send them away? "And they were all given to one person, and ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng''s little face was full of smiles, a proud look flashing across her eyes: "Have you noticed, you and it are both so arrogant and spoiled?"


    "¡­" An Yue turned and left. Could he say that he didn''t want to talk to this master anymore?


    In truth, she only wanted to tease An Yue a little. As for this huge cage, she did not mind and waved her hands at the Peach Blossom who was still in excitement: "An Xiang should be back tomorrow. Remember to hand over the matter of feeding the tiger to her.


    It was unknown if the tiger understood Yun Ruoleng''s words, but it actually started to groan.


    Peach Blossom nodded in agreement. When she heard the name earlier, she was shocked. The name ''Little White'' did not match the mighty and domineering tiger.


    "The tiger is the king of the forest, but when he grows up, he will become even fiercer." Yun Ruoleng turned around and said while walking, "I''ll be called Batian."


    "Batian?" Peach Blossom was startled, "What do you mean, ''Overlord of the Forest''?" Then why not call it Baelin? However, after thinking for a while, Peach Blossom did not ask.


    "Something like that!" Yun Ruoleng waved his hand with difficulty, "Cage, cover it, it''s raining tonight."


    Although Peach Blossom didn''t know how Yun Ruoleng knew it was going to rain tonight, she still swiftly found a board to block the water, covering the top of the iron cage tightly before leaving with ease.


    After returning to his room, Yun Ruoleng leaned on his bed and studied the books that Jun Qingshang had delivered a while ago. Because he had just started training, the effects of his training were very obvious.


    Right now, Yun Ruoleng was still at the first step, the third level of the Spirit Gathering level. Although he was at the third level, he could already kill people and become formless. At this time, Yun Ruoleng met with a problem, and she actually read in the book: "Every three levels is a buffering point, if you break through the first level and fail, your power will always be stuck at the top."


    The more Yun Ruoleng read, the more nervous he became. After closing the book, he was glad that he did not breakthrough. Otherwise, the consequences would have been dire.


    After reading for a while, Yun Ruoleng continued to absorb the surrounding Spirit Qi, and gathered it in her body. After an unknown amount of time, she breathed out a mouthful of impure Qi, and slowly opened her eyes, her eyes were bright and clear like water.


    That''s right, she was already a Spirit Gathering Level 4, and just a moment ago she found a feeling and advanced.


    Yun Ruoleng was smiling happily at the feeling of levelling up so easily.


    Then, he flipped open the book and continued to look at the cultivation technique for the fourth stage. Because he had not flipped through the page, Yun Ruoleng suddenly realized that his spiritual sense had improved greatly because of his breakthrough.


    After flipping through for a long time, Yun Ruoleng then happily laid on the bed with the book, and fell asleep the moment he touched the pillow.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng was woken up by the heat. Because it wasn''t natural for him to wake up, his entire body was still a little dazed. Only then did Yun Ruoleng unwillingly open his eyes.


    When he saw the person lying beside him, he nearly exploded in anger. Because the person sleeping by her side was none other than the man that Heaven''s Enlightenment''s women all wished to sleep in ¡ª ¡ª Jun Qingshang.


    "You''re awake?" The man''s voice was a bit hoarse. Undeniably, this voice was still able to enthrall countless women to it.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded blankly, and when she finally reacted, she raised her leg and wanted to kick him again. Jun Qingshang''s reaction was extremely fast. Stretching out his long legs, he firmly pressed her down on the bed, and raised both of Yun Ruoleng''s slender hands above his head with one hand while the other hand pinched down with power that would not hurt her, forcing her to look at him. "If you dare kick this king again, this king will not be courteous to you."


    Yun Ruoleng was terrified, she had almost forgotten that this was not a simple handsome man, but an earth tyrant!


    Actually, Yun Ruoleng really wanted to ask the little emperor: Can I let Xiao Bai out to bite Jun Qingshang?


    Of course, if he thought about it like that, it would be good. With the little emperor''s level of adhesion towards Jun Qingshang, Little White would probably bite him instead!


    "What are you thinking about?" Jun Qingshang reached out and pinched her rosy little face in dissatisfaction, a smile curling up at the corner of her lips.


    Hmm, the feel is pretty good.


    Yun Ruoleng regained her senses and stared at the person on top of her. Only then did she remember that she was in such an ambiguous position, but she could not struggle free and could only use her eyes to "kill" him.


    "Who saw it?" Jun Qingshang scoffed but did not move.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng was speechless, she did not want to speak to this domineering, rude, and arrogant person anymore, so she immediately turned her face away.


    Jun Qingshang seemed to be very dissatisfied, and pinched Yun Ruoleng''s rosy cheeks. Because she had just woken up, her phoenix eyes were still filled with mist, and looked drowsy. Only when Yun Ruoleng could no longer hold it in and bitterly retracted her hand, did her gaze fall on her lips that was slightly gasping for breath.


    When Jun Qingshang withdrew his hand, he "accidentally" cut across Yun Ruoleng''s lips. His adam''s apple moved slightly, and before Yun Ruoleng could react, he leaned over and directly kissed that pink lips.


    Yun Ruoleng was shocked, and his mind went blank.


    This kiss lasted for a long time. In the beginning, Jun Qingshang only wanted to kiss her lightly, but Yun Ruoleng was poison.


    Ambiguous factors slowly floated in the air, suffused with a pink color, tangled and palpitating.

 C119

    "Whooosh." Yun Ruoleng who received free breathing greedily breathed in the fresh air. Jun Qingshang looked down from above at the lips that had been ravaged red. She slightly frowned and her body slightly tensed.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes slowly widened, her entire body was stiff, and she did not dare to move recklessly. Her mist-covered almond-shaped eyes looked all around, and her face was so red that it bled profusely. Seeing no reaction from Jun Qingshang for a while, Yun Ruoleng lightly reminded him: "Your Highness, it''s getting late, don''t you want to go to the morning assembly?"


    Jun Qingshang laughed upon hearing this, and turned to hug Yun Ruoleng tightly. He pulled up his blanket and patted Yun Ruoleng''s butt lightly: "Don''t move!"


    "That... "It hurts so bad." As soon as Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he regretted it. He wanted to bite off his tongue. Even in modern times, she had never been so intimate with anyone before!


    "Let me give it a hug. It''ll be done in a moment." Jun Qingshang was a little helpless, he used to boast of his exceptional mental fortitude, but he never thought that he would react today, and even that was just a kiss that brought about trouble!


    Jun Qingshang was afraid that he would scare Yun Ruoleng, so he embraced her and comforted her: "I have never been this patient with a woman before, you can be considered an exception."


    Oh... Yun Ruoleng raised the small face in her palms and silently stared at Jun Qingshang''s enchanter-like handsome face.


    "Ruo Er, I treat you so well, do you have any feelings for me?" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrow, and asked seemingly unintentionally.


    "I ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s face was burning hot, her heart was thumping hard. She did not understand why she had done this, nor did she understand if she really had any feelings for this man.


    That feeling was a sign of gratitude for saving his life, or something else.


    Yun Ruoleng''s mind was in a mess, she did not open her eyes and did not speak anymore.


    Jun Qingshang felt a bit stifled, but he laughed: "Does your master only have that little of a place in your heart?"


    "It ¡­ it''s not small anymore!" Yun Ruoleng rebuked as she glared at him, "Compared to the greedy father who feeds me, you occupy thirty percent of my place in my heart."


    "What about the rest?" Yun Ruoleng avoided his gaze and simply did not notice that the face of the man beside him had already darkened to the extreme.


    Yun Ruoleng stuttered as he explained. From what he heard, he could not even compare to that servant girl.


    With a darkened face, Jun Qingshang lowered his head and kissed the chattering little mouth again. This time, he was not as gentle as last time. On the contrary, he continuously bit Yun Ruoleng''s lips like a trapped beast, but he couldn''t bear to hurt her. After kissing her until she felt dizzy, he got up and left the room.


    "¡­" Is this what they call leaving after eating?


    Yun Ruoleng was stunned for a moment, he could not help but touch his swollen lips, and angrily patted on the bed!


    Lecher! Next time, you have to kiss me back!


    The more Yun Ruoleng thought about it, the angrier she became, and when she thought about what Jun Qingshang had said, her heart trembled. She quietly hugged her blanket and began to think, but after thinking for a long time, she was still unable to come up with an accurate answer.


    Jun Qingshang went back to the Regent¡¯s Mansion with a darkened face. An Ying followed behind him, confused.


    Was he chased out? An Ying knew what he had to do, so he naturally didn''t invite trouble by moving forward.


    After Jun Qingshang returned, he stayed alone in his study, leaning on the Ancient Wooden Scented Wood chair, slightly lost in thought.


    He was a dignified prince who held all the authority in the world. He treated her so well, but she only treated him as her savior. Did she really want to break off their relationship as soon as possible?


    The more Jun Qingshang thought about it, the more furious he became, there was no way to vent out the anger in his heart, he could only suppress it in his heart, so much so that in this morning''s morning assembly, Duke Yun was being harassed by the Regent King and did not give him any face.


    Similarly, Yun Ruoleng tossed and turned before she fell asleep again. In the end, just as dawn broke, she woke up again, because she had something on her mind, so she couldn''t fall asleep.


    "Miss, did you practice very late last night?" Peach Blossom rarely saw Yun Ruoleng being so listless, although she was a little lazy sometimes, but it did not affect her Qi, but now that she was so listless, she did not have any Qi left.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at his fatigued self in the mirror and smiled faintly without saying a word.


    There were still more than ten days until the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the preparations had already started inside the Minister¡¯s Mansion, and Mrs. Luo was extremely busy, so he would occasionally send people over to Yun Ruoleng to ask him what he needed.


    "Miss, An Xiang is back." Yun Ruoleng was leaning against a eucalyptus tree behind the Ao Xue Yuan, reading a book. She quietly sat there, looking like a beautiful woman from the Ninth Heaven, so beautiful that even men would not be able to look at her.


    Yun Ruoleng slowly raised his head and gave her a light smile. In an instant, the profound woman of the Ninth Heaven had become even more beautiful.


    An Xiang tried his best to calm his emotions, "Miss, you saved An Xiang''s life. In the future, even if you want me to climb the mountain of blades or climb the sea of flames, An Xiang will have no complaints."


    "Puff ¡­" Yun Ruoleng looked at her cute and serious look, and instantly burst out laughing, "When did I ever let you climb the mountain of blades, or let you go down to the sea of fire? Alright, it''s good that you''re back. "


    An Xiang mischievously stuck out his tongue, secretly deciding that in the future, he would protect Yun Ruoleng well and not let what happened last time happen.


    Tao Hong walked in while carrying a cup of tea. She looked at An Xiang who was standing beside her and asked in astonishment: "When did An Xiang return?"


    "Just came back." He used to be picky about Peach Blossom in the past, but after what happened last time, An Xiang''s arrogance had been flattened. He was no longer like when he first came here, feeling that he was a miss and not a secret guard.


    Tao Hong nodded her head, her thoughts were not as meticulous as Yun Ruoleng, naturally she did not feel An Xiang''s change, and upon receiving the answer, she looked at Yun Ruoleng quickly: "Miss, today I heard that eldest miss had punished another servant, and this time she beat him half to death, and was carried out to be treated, I think that he will not be able to recover completely."


    Yun Ruoleng put down the book in his hand, raised his head and looked at the sky on the wall, then sneered: "So savage, what''s the difference between it and the Sky Tyrant in the cage? The only difference is that Yun Yueyu is human, while Batian is the emperor''s pet. "


    "Master did not punish Eldest Miss for this. What does Miss think of this matter?" Tao Hong agreed with Yun Ruoleng''s words, and continued to speak.


    "She''s just a lowly servant girl." Yun Ruoleng could pass the seats, but he could imagine why Yun Yueyu would do such a thing to the servant girls.


    Peach Blossom and An Xiang gasped. They had no choice but to admit that a noble family''s maid was indeed like an ant.


    "Yun Yueyu''s fingers are healed?" Yun Ruoleng suddenly thought of something, and asked softly, "How is First Madam doing?"


    "Eldest Miss''s injuries have healed, but I heard that she can''t touch the zither anymore." Peach Blossom paused for a moment, then shook her head. "First Madam may be under confinement, but the Hibiscus Courtyard is very strong. This servant can''t get any information from them."

 C120

    Yun Ruoleng was not in a hurry at all. He chuckled and waved his hands, "Leave this kind of thing to An Xiang in the future! Just keep your eyes on Yun Yueyu. "


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang and Peach Blossom agreed.


    Nodding his head, Yun Ruoleng lowered his eyes and continued to read, it was as if nothing had happened, he did not even notice that An Xiang and Peach Blossom had left.


    But in truth, Yun Ruoleng did not read the book in his hands, as the events of the morning surfaced in his mind. For a moment, he felt increasingly frustrated. He was unable to read the book at all, so he could only stare blankly at the book.


    After a while, Peach Blossom returned, she did not notice Yun Ruoleng''s abnormality: "Miss, the Mrs. Luo has sent people over to measure your size, do you want to see it or not?"


    Yun Ruoleng came back to his senses, and closed the book very naturally. He got up and walked out: "Of course I want to meet her."


    Peach Blossom did not say anything as she followed behind Yun Ruoleng with her head lowered. Yun Ruoleng took note of it, but did not ask.


    At this moment, Yun Shicheng had been scolded badly by the Regent King. He was even forced to spend seven days thinking in front of the wall at home. This meant that he could not go to the morning court in these seven days and could not manage the matters of the court.


    When Yun Shicheng thought here, the anger that he had been holding back could not be dispersed. However, he didn''t expect that after a while, the housekeeper would rush over and tell him that his eldest daughter had lashed out the maidservant by her side yesterday. Today, the maidservant had been sent out because she couldn''t handle it anymore.


    Yun Shicheng was not in a good mood to begin with, so if he were to encounter such a thing again, the anger in his heart would increase.


    Yun Yueyu did not expect that Yun Shicheng would come, at the moment she was instructing a servant girl from the Speaker Pavilion to attack a 15 year old servant girl. That servant girl was not very beautiful, but her almond-shaped eyes made Yun Yueyu hate her.


    When Yun Shicheng walked into the Explanation Pavilion, he heard the cries inside. His originally green face became even uglier: "What are you doing!"


    Yun Yueyu looked at Yun Shicheng in panic: "Father, why is father here?"


    "If I don''t come, are you going to kill everyone in your courtyard and find a new person? Let everyone in the capital know about it? " Yun Shicheng could not understand why he was so smart, and why First Madam was also so smart. Why was he so willful and stupid when he was giving birth to his daughter?


    "Yu''er doesn''t mean that." Yun Yueyu mumbled, and said softly: "Yu''er is only teaching the servants in the courtyard, she did not take anyone''s life. Didn''t that girl still manage to get out alive? "


    Yun Shicheng wanted to strangle Yun Yueyu to death, but beating her up like that was nothing much, but the problem was that the little girl did not come out from the dark room, but from the courtyard of a young miss who was in confinement.


    If this were to spread out, Yun Yueyu''s reputation would be ruined.


    Yun Shicheng glanced at the servant girl who was kneeling on the ground and the servant girl who was lying on the ground.


    The news quickly reached Yun Ruoleng''s ears. Peach Blossom waved her claws angrily: "Miss, the old master is so biased, how come you''ve never been bullied by the big Miss before? How come you''ve never seen him so concerned?"


    "He''s not biased." "If the Lan family falls, the position of the First Madam will become even more unsteady. At that time, you will know whether or not your father is fond of Yun Yueyu."


    Although Peach Blossom did not understand, she did not ask any further. In any case, she had plenty of time to watch the show.


    "By the way, didn''t Mrs. Luo prepare a big present for you? When are we going? " Yun Ruoleng looked forward to Mrs. Luo''s efforts, so he placed the silver hairpin on the table, "Come with me to the Song Garden."


    Peach Blossom answered and turned around to grab a light purple Pear Blossom Cloak. Although the weather wasn''t cold outside, the temperature difference was great sooner or later.


    Like its name, the acoustical sound rose in spirals.


    When Yun Ruoleng walked into the Song Courtyard, Mrs. Luo was playing the zither. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng had come, he nodded his head slightly and continued to play.


    Yun Ruoleng did not feel that this was disrespectful, he casually found a seat to sit down and quietly listened to the sound of the silk bamboo.


    It had to be said that the Mrs. Luo''s zither skills were superb, even Yun Ruoleng himself felt inferior.


    Seventh Miss has time to come here, is there something you need? After the song ended, the Mrs. Luo handed the guqin to the servant girl beside him and asked softly.


    Yun Ruoleng did not say a word and looked at Peach Blossom. Peach Blossom immediately explained, "Miss came to listen to First Madam''s big present. This morning, Master went to Third Miss'' place. "


    "Seventh Miss is afraid that he will be released because of that matter?" Mrs. Luo raised her eyebrows slightly.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: "That''s not it."


    Mrs. Luo was confused: "Then why is Seventh Miss doing this?"


    "The Lan family will still be of assistance to father, so father will not cut off his own arm. It was expected for First Madam to come out before mid-autumn, so I''m afraid that Yun Yueyu will also come out."


    "What do you want?" Mrs. Luo was shocked. Seeing Yun Ruoleng who was sitting in front of her and drinking tea as light as the wind and as clear as clouds, it was fortunate that he chose to stand with her.


    "It''s time for the big gift to come in handy." Yun Ruoleng laughed casually, the smile was extremely enchanting, even the Mrs. Luo felt that he was seeing things.


    "When does Seventh Miss plan to make his move?" Mrs. Luo waved away the servant girls by his side and asked softly.


    Yun Ruoleng lightly tapped a few times on the side with his finger, and the corners of his mouth slightly rose: "This afternoon."


    "Afternoon?" Mrs. Luo looked at the weather hesitantly, "It''s already getting late."


    "I''ll arrange it." Yun Ruoleng stopped tapping his hands, "You can just bring father into the Hibiscus Courtyard."


    Mrs. Luo''s eyes lit up. This was a good idea, it was just that at this time, Yun Ruoleng came to find him. In the afternoon, First Madam had a problem, would he really not attract attention?


    Mrs. Luo was initially excited, but when she thought of the possibility, she hesitated.


    "We need an opportunity." Yun Ruoleng winked at Mrs. Luo and laughed, "And Yun Yueyu is the best opportunity."


    "Alright." Mrs. Luo''s pupils contracted as he nodded his head slightly.


    Seeing that she understood, the smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face became even more obvious, but in the eyes of the Mrs. Luo, the smile was oozing out of her mouth. Every time she spoke to Yun Ruoleng, she would always feel this way, if it wasn''t because she knew that she was on the same side as him, she would be really afraid of the Seventh Miss.


    Yun Ruoleng and Mrs. Luo were in a much better mood after discussing the battle line. They brought Peach Blossom back to the Ao Xue Yuan, then went to play with Ba Tian in his cage.


    An Xiang watched from the side as Yun Ruoleng reached into the cage with his hand. He was panicking and he almost threw away the food on the tray.

 C121

    Tyrannical Ambition''s expression instantly froze. She shook her head and tried to shake off the hand that was on her head.


    Yun Ruoleng gently patted its restless head, and seemed to be in a good mood as he retracted his hand. Then, he threw a piece of meat from the tray in An Xiang''s hand to it.


    Ba Tian sniffed, then glanced at Yun Ruoleng in disdain.


    "Batian, you can''t be like the little emperor here. I''m poor! I don''t have any mountain and sea delicacies for you to eat. " Yun Ruoleng snappily snorted, and stretched out his hand to ravage its head again before standing up and leaving.


    An Xiang was frightened to death. Finally, Yun Ruoleng left, and she was finally relieved, she placed the tray on the door and quickly followed Yun Ruoleng: "Miss, don''t get too close to the tiger. It''s dangerous."


    "Peach Blossom is very joyful, but you''re afraid of it. The two of you have rather interesting natures." Yun Ruoleng pursed her lips and smiled, then suddenly fixed her gaze on the treetops, "An Yue, I have something to trouble you with again."


    "What is it?" An Yue appeared in front of Yun Ruoleng in a flash, and just like before, he did not have any emotions in his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng took out something that looked like a cloth doll from his sleeves and gave it to An Yue: "It''s not a big deal, just take this to First Madam''s room."


    After receiving it, An Yue''s gaze darkened slightly. "To actually curse yourself for the sake of a First Madam, is it worth it?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded: "It''s worth it. Wasn''t there a saying, ''one can''t bear to part with a child?'' Being able to disrupt the position of First Madam is more worthwhile than anything. "


    Moreover, she would never believe in superstitions!


    "Then wouldn''t it be fine if we just kill her?" An Yue felt that this matter was not so troublesome, why did he have to calculate it?


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "You are such a cute person, just like First Madam and your daughter, it would be great if you could take care of them."


    An Yue did not speak further, and only looked at Yun Ruoleng steadily for a moment. Then, he disappeared from Yun Ruoleng''s sight with a tap of his feet.


    An Xiang, who was standing by the side, stared with his eyes as wide as a bronze bell: "He, when will he be here ¡­"


    "When I came back, His Highness left him with me." Yun Ruoleng turned his head and smiled faintly towards her. He felt that An Xiang''s reaction was extremely cute, and couldn''t help but want to pinch her smooth little face.


    An Xiang was speechless. Her king had actually gifted a first-rate expert to this Seventh Miss, it seemed that he was no ordinary person! In the future, he would have to hold on to this thick leg.


    "It''s getting late, go ask the doctor to come over." Yun Ruoleng looked up at the sky and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.


    An Xiang nodded and turned to leave.


    Yun Ruoleng turned around and walked back to his original position. He was in a good mood as he stood by the iron cage and toyed with the tiger.


    "Miss, Doctor Bai is here." An Xiang walked into the courtyard, and was a little puzzled when he saw Yun Ruoleng, who was toying with Sky Tyrant Lord.


    What was the use of this person inviting a doctor?


    "Then I''ll be troubling Doctor Bai." Yun Ruoleng stood up and frowned, looking at Doctor Bai reminded her of that day, but she did not like to look happy, and only frowned, "Recently, Leng Er has been having sleepless nights and nightmares plaguing his body, Doctor Bai is here to take a look at Leng Er to see what kind of sickness he is suffering from."


    At first, when Doctor Bai looked at Yun Ruoleng''s back, he didn''t think that she was sick at all. However, after looking at her pale little face and her slightly green eyelids, he had a rough idea.


    "I''ve already used a lot of soul calming drugs. I''ve even lit some soul calming incense, but it still hasn''t been relieved in the slightest. Please take a look for me before making a decision!"


    So, Yun Ruoleng brought her to the study room. Yun Ruoleng sat on the chair with her hand on the table, Peach Blossom quickly took out a handkerchief and covered Yun Ruoleng''s wrist.


    Only then did Doctor Bai reach out his hand to take her pulse.


    "How''s the doctor?" Peach Red nervously stared at Doctor White''s expression. Seeing Doctor Bai furrow his brows in deep thought, her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that something had happened to the doctor?


    Doctor White shook his head. "This old man is incompetent and has not been able to diagnose anything."


    "Nothing?" Yun Ruoleng sighed in disappointment and lowered his head, thinking of something.


    "How long has this been happening to the girl?" Dr. White suddenly asked.


    Yun Ruoleng creased his eyebrows, and slowly said: "Just these past few days, I initially had something on my mind, but I couldn''t fall asleep.


    "Have you seen it with any other doctors?"


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: "No, I think my situation must have been caused by an unsettled state of mind, which is why I have been using the Calm Incense the entire time, but it''s still useless."


    "If my guess is correct, the lady might have come across something unclean." "In the past, this old man had a patient who was the same as you, but he ended up hiring a Daoist."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes shone with a bright light, but he still maintained a pale look on his face, as if he was so scared that he fell down on a chair.


    Peach Red glared at Doctor Bai. "What kind of doctor is this!?" Even if you don''t know how to cure the illness, don''t scare people! If anything happens to my Young Miss, I''ll fight you to the death! "


    "Peach Blossom!" Yun Ruoleng suddenly pulled Peach Blossom who was about to chase her away, and lightly shook his head, "Go find Mrs. Luo and arrange some matters regarding the Daoist Priest."


    "Miss, do you really believe his lies?" Peach Blossom was bold, in order to not let Yun Ruoleng suffer a loss, she did not care about the honor of Doctor Bai, and directly chased him away.


    "Maybe he''s right." Yun Ruoleng glanced at An Xiang, who was at the side, and instructed, "Go and inform Mrs. Luo about this, and have her invite a Spirit Dao cultivator to pass through today."


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang nodded, showing that he understood.


    Tao Hong became anxious and was about to speak up, but was interrupted by Yun Ruoleng with a look. "Give Doctor Bai the medical fee, stop messing around!"


    Tao Hong was extremely unconvinced, but she had no choice but to obey Yun Ruoleng''s orders. She could only give Doctor Bai a medical fee, glared at him unhappily, and reluctantly sent him out of the residence.


    After Peach Blossom left, Yun Ruoleng called An Yue out: "Have you finished putting the things inside?"


    "Yes." An Yue was extremely disdainful of her actions. To a hidden guard, she only obeyed her master''s orders, but her master never allowed them to do such a thing!


    Yun Ruoleng sneered, then picked up the brush on the table and gently wrote a few words on it. After looking at it, An Yue''s eyes flashed, and in the end, she had no choice but to admit that what she did was right.


    Yun Ruoleng put down the brush and smiled faintly to An Yue, but his gaze was still fixated on the black cloth on his face.


    "Take off that black cloth!" It''s so annoying. " Yun Ruoleng''s smile slowly faded, revealing a disdainful expression, looking a little more adorable.

 C122

    Hearing that Yun Ruoleng wanted him to take off his black cloth and leave, Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes in shock, his heart becoming more serious. Did he ruin his face, and was afraid of being seen, so he did not take off his mask?


    It was just past noon when Mrs. Luo brought a group of people known as mages into the Ao Xue Yuan. Yun Shicheng also came along with them.


    When they came over, Yun Ruoleng was still resting on the bed. After Peach Blossom woke her up, Yun Ruoleng let out a scream, but she was so scared that Peach Blossom immediately comforted her: "Miss, everything is fine, everything is fine."


    Yun Ruoleng "panicked" as she looked at the person in front of her. Her slender hands lightly wiped the sweat off her forehead and asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "What is it?"


    "Master and Mrs. Luo are here, you''re still ¡­ And also invited a Taoist. " Peach Blossom looked at Yun Ruoleng''s face and heaved a sigh of relief after seeing her return to normal.


    So fast? Yun Ruoleng got up from the bed with a light smile on his face. He looked like he was in a good mood.


    Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng in puzzlement, and could not help but ask: "Miss, what have you been through to make you so happy?"


    "You''ll have to cooperate with me in a while." Yun Ruoleng lifted his mischievous and peachy nose and turned around as Peach Blossom covered her with her coat.


    Peach Red was startled, then after putting on the clothes for Yun Ruoleng, she thought that Yun Ruoleng had somehow found a doctor, and the things were probably planned by the young miss.


    The more Peach Blossom looked at Yun Ruoleng''s expression, the more she was sure of her thoughts.


    And currently within the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Jun Qingshang''s face was so dark that it was dripping from morning till night and the entire Duke Palaces were covered with dark clouds. An Ying stood at the door and looked at the closed door of the study, while he helplessly shook his head.


    "An Ying!" There was finally a reaction in the room, but it made An Ying extremely excited, and he immediately pushed the door and entered.


    "What orders does Master have?"


    "Wine." Jun Qingshang stood in front of the window with his back facing An Ying, his expression could not be seen.


    An Ying did not dare to be negligent, and turned to call for someone to bring the wine over, as he was afraid that Jun Qingshang would order some people to prepare the wine and soup for him when he was drunk.


    However, although Jun Qingshang did not usually drink much, he still drank a lot and was not drunk at all. An Ying did not dare advise him otherwise and only cautiously said, "Master, drinking alcohol hurts your health."


    Jun Qingshang shot a cold glance at it and smashed the bottle of wine.


    An Ying reacted in time to avoid the attack. What followed after was Jun Qingshang''s ice-cold voice: "Get out!"


    "Yes sir!" An Ying felt very helpless in his heart. He knew that his master had suffered a severe blow to this extent, and now that he thought about it, even after following his master for twenty odd years, he had never seen him so concerned about anyone.


    Compared to Jun Qingshang''s drunk injuries, Yun Ruoleng was clearly much more relaxed. Mrs. Luo had arranged for the Daoist Priest to come over to help him, but the Daoist Priest had instead used his horsetail whisk to circle around Yun Ruoleng, and in the end, his gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng''s face.


    "The girl did encounter something foul." The Daoist Priest stroked his goatee, and stared at Yun Ruoleng''s palm sized, peerless appearance, as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned, "Master, if you have something to say, say it."


    "Ai!" The Daoist Priest waved his horsetail whisk and turned his head to look at Yun Shicheng and the Mrs. Luo at the main seat. He said with great difficulty, "I''m afraid that Miss Ye''s Nightmare is related to the Wu Gu technique."


    "What?" Yun Shicheng was shocked. One must know that the Lich Gu technique was a taboo. Yun Shicheng did not dare believe this outcome.


    "This Penniless Priest had encountered the same thing a few years ago, and found out that it was witchcraft. Every day, he would use seven needles on the puppet''s body. After forty-nine days, the person on the puppet would die. In these seven days, she would have nightmares at night, and her mental state would grow worse and worse. "


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Red supported the crumbling Yun Ruoleng and looked at him worriedly.


    "Father, you have to avenge Leng Er!" "Putong!" He knelt in front of Yun Shicheng, "Leng Er has never done anything against the world, so why are those people unwilling to let her go? If father is unwilling, then Leng Er can only find big sister to uphold justice for Leng Er."


    "Someone, come!" Yun Shicheng was not lightly angered, inviting Yun Qingyao back would cause this matter to become bigger?


    How could Yun Shicheng do this? He immediately sent people to search the various courtyards.


    When it was almost dusk, and the protective guards could not find any results, Yun Shicheng did not dare to let his guard down, as he was afraid that if he pissed Yun Ruoleng off, he would send someone to invite Yun Qingyao to come back. "What other places are there that haven''t been searched?"


    "Due to the confinement of the First Madam''s courtyard and the First Miss''s courtyard, we do not dare to enter." The leader lowered his head and respectfully replied.


    Yun Shicheng rubbed his forehead, looked at the Daoist Priest and said to Mrs. Luo: "Master does not need to stay for long, I will send you out."


    "I understand." How could Mrs. Luo not know how much of a person Yun Shicheng was? However, she did not object and allowed the Daoist Priest to be sent away.


    personally brought some people to the Hibiscus Courtyard. First Madam was very happy to hear that Yun Shicheng had arrived, she thought that she would be able to leave, but who would have thought that a group of people would come and directly search her courtyard.


    First Madam initially thought that someone had dropped something, which was why she investigated the matter. However, later on, when she saw a guard walk out with a box wrapped around his waist, she felt that something was amiss.


    "Old master, this is ¡­"


    Yun Shicheng threw the box in the guard''s hands in front of First Madam, and a cloth doll the size of his palm rolled out.


    First Madam looked at the thing on the floor in shock: "Why is this thing in my room?"


    "Whose room should I be in?" Yun Shicheng''s face became darker and darker.


    "No ¡­" No matter how foolish First Madam was, she knew that this was a witchcraft and a taboo. She was shocked when she found it in her room, but she panicked when she heard it, "Master, I didn''t mean it that way. This thing doesn''t belong to me."


    "First Madam, don''t you feel that your explanation is powerless?" Yun Ruoleng leaned into Mrs. Luo''s embrace, with a mournful look on his face. "To think that Leng Er is so respectful to you, but I didn''t expect you to want Leng Er to die this much."


    "What nonsense are you talking about!" First Madam''s eyes were bloodshot, he looked like he was about to eat someone, and bellowed, "This food can make people talk and not talk, when did I want to hurt you?"


    "Elder sister sent someone to hint at me, yet you didn''t stop me despite knowing about it. Don''t you want me to die?" Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath and looked at Yun Shicheng pitifully, "Father has seen it too, can''t you kill me? First Madam used a curse on me, is it not enough to say that she hates her daughter to the bones and wants to kill me?"


    "You ¡­"


    "What does Leng Er want to do?" Yun Shicheng''s face had already turned extremely ugly.


    However, Yun Ruoleng had never been afraid of him, and did not hide anything from his question, "Even though I don''t want to die, I can''t be the main mother anymore."

 C123

    "How dare you!" First Madam glared at Yun Ruoleng angrily, but he could not give a reason, so he could only turn around and threaten Yun Shicheng, "My mother will not let this go!"


    Yun Shicheng waved his sleeves, turned around, and left a sentence behind. "First Madam is not allowed to take even half a step out of the Hibiscus Courtyard without my permission."


    Yun Ruoleng and Mrs. Luo looked at each other and Mrs. Luo sighed in regret, "Mistress, please don''t do such a foolish thing anymore."


    "You all ¡­" The First Madam was actually shrouded in darkness. It was only until Yun Shicheng gave his order that she discovered that she had been framed, but she did not know who this person was. She only felt her vision go black and fell to the ground.


    "Madam!"


    The Hibiscus Courtyard was in a mess. Only then did Yun Ruoleng leave with the Mrs. Luo.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng received an unforgettable piece of news, and instantly pushed her out of heaven and into hell.


    "What did you say?" Yun Ruoleng stood there blankly, his face full of disbelief as he looked at An Xiang.


    An Xiang was afraid that she would not be able to take the blow, so he reached out his hands to help her.


    "Who said that!" Yun Ruoleng asked harshly.


    An Xiang knew that she was unwilling to believe it, but that was an unchanging fact. "The news that An Ying just sent over, I reckon that the third young miss'' corpse will return to Minister¡¯s Mansion in an hour''s time."


    Yun Ruoleng turned and looked at An Xiang for a good while before he pushed her away and left.


    An Xiang was afraid that she would do something that would make him lose his mind so he chased after her. She never thought that Yun Ruoleng''s speed would be so fast, and if she chased after him, Yun Ruoleng''s figure would no longer be around.


    "An Yue, where''s the young miss?" An Xiang anxiously stood at the door and shouted into the air.


    "He left the courtyard!" An Yue suddenly appeared behind An Xiang, his voice as gloomy as hell.


    An Xiang was shocked, she turned her head and glared at him. An Yue felt that he was being stared at in a baffling manner, and just as he wanted to speak, he saw that An Xiang had already ran out.


    Everything happened too suddenly, Yun Ruoleng only felt her mind turning blank. The only thing she wanted to do was to see her elder sister one last time, that kind and gentle elder sister who would stay away from worldly affairs, why did she leave just like that?


    Yun Ruoleng''s footsteps were really fast, in a blink of an eye he had already reached the Minister¡¯s Mansion''s gate, but he was stopped by the guard at the door.


    "Seventh Miss, Master said that the people in the Residence cannot leave as they please in the next few days. Please don''t make things difficult for us!" The guard did not dare to offend the Seventh Miss, who just had a backer, and his tone of voice always carried the tone of fawning.


    Yun Ruoleng really wanted to beat these two blocking dogs to death. She wanted to see her sister now, she had to!


    Maybe elder sister is still holding back to wait for her!


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to reveal his true strength, a black horse suddenly stopped in front of the Minister¡¯s Mansion entrance.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his head to look at the person who had just arrived. He was stunned for a moment, but then subconsciously took a step back, "Your, Your Highness ¡­"


    "Your servant greets Your Highness."


    "Your servant greets the prince!"


    Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s pale white face, the smile instantly disappeared. He quickly walked to her side and pulled her into his embrace, "She''s fine now."


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose, then pushed him away in disdain: "Did he fall into a wine jar?"


    Jun Qingshang''s expression was slightly stiff, seeing that she looked down on him, she laughed sinisterly: "Yeah! You accidentally walked into the wine cellar last night, are you happy now? "


    "Haha ¡­" Yun Ruoleng forced a smile, "I''m not in the mood to joke with you."


    "Don''t worry, he''ll be back soon." As Jun Qingshang looked at her small face which became more and more depressed, he almost couldn''t hold back and pulled her into his embrace once more.


    "How did my sister die?" Yun Ruoleng had finally calmed down and, instead of the depressed look from before, her clear eyes had long ago turned slightly red. However, her eyes were still looking at Jun Qingshang resolutely.


    "It''s said that he got sick on the way back. He became sick right after arriving at Saint Wu Mountain, and he left after a day." Although Jun Qingshang said it in a very simple manner, Yun Ruoleng completely understood what he meant. With a sneer, he turned around and walked in another direction.


    An Xiang looked up suspiciously at Yun Ruoleng who was about to leave. Where is Miss going?


    "Ruo Er, where are you going?" Jun Qingshang immediately asked out the doubt in his heart, stepped forward and pulled Yun Ruoleng back, "Even if you go and cause trouble with your father, there won''t be any results."


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head, she was not so foolish as to find trouble with Yun Shicheng, but she had to investigate everything thoroughly, how could she possibly lose her life after being sick for two or three days?


    Seeing that although her face was cold, Jun Qingshang did not try to cause trouble, and so he finally let her go.


    Yun Ruoleng walked in that direction again. At this time, Yun Shicheng probably did not know about this matter yet. When he arrived at the Kang Song Courtyard, he only said one sentence: "The Regent Hall is coming down."


    "This little one will pass on the message right away!"


    The servant quickly ran to the door of Yun Shicheng''s study and knocked on it. Then, he saw Yun Shicheng, who was wearing a treasure blue robe, walk out from the study room and say a few words to the attendant. Then, he walked towards Yun Ruoleng.


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng didn''t have the heart to think so much.


    Jun Qingshang had indeed come, and he was accompanied by the twelve knights of the An Ying Guards. They were standing at the door in a daze, and when they saw Yun Ruoleng clasping their fists and saluting to him, Yun Ruoleng gave a slight bow in return.


    Seeing that, Yun Shicheng''s eyes lit up, as if he was looking at a rising star in the future. But when he walked into the hall, his expression changed, especially when he looked at the stretcher on the ground.


    "What does Your Highness mean by this?"


    Jun Qingshang stared emotionlessly at Yun Shicheng, staring at his entire body that was covered in goosebumps, but the other party did not say a word.


    Actually, no one would be happy if they saw an extra corpse in their room early in the morning, but Yun Ruoleng did not care about all this at the moment, and laughed: "Father asked His Highness what is the meaning of this, then Father, have you seen who this is?"


    Yun Shicheng was startled, without waiting for Jun Qingshang to reply, he immediately squatted down to examine himself. The moment he removed the white cloth, Yun Shicheng''s entire body seemed to have been frozen, the corner of his mouth twitched a few times.


    "Did father see it clearly?" Yun Ruoleng''s gaze had never left Yun Shicheng''s face before. From the moment he had taken off the white cloth until now, she had never seen any hint of sadness in his eyes.


    What angered Yun Ruoleng even more was that Yun Shicheng actually revealed a look of disappointment.


    Disappointment? Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly in his heart. So it turned out that blood relations were just words spoken on the surface. In Yun Shicheng''s heart, everything was not worth his power.


    Yun Ruoleng did not expect Yun Shicheng to properly arrange Yun Qingyao''s future affairs, he turned and coldly said to An Xiang: "Go and invite the coroner over, I want to examine his corpse!"

 C124

    "Nonsense!" Yun Shicheng finally had a reaction, and with a "pop", he stood up from the ground, his eyes staring straight at Yun Ruoleng, "Do you want your sister to not be able to have a complete body even after death?"


    "Someone said that my sister died of a disease. I don''t believe it!" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "Does father not want to know how Third Sister, who just left home healthy a few days ago, became this sick?"


    Yun Shicheng''s face stiffened. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Jun Qingshang who had been observing coldly from the side. "An Xiang, take this king''s identity plate and bring in the coroner and the academy judge. This king is also very interested!"


    Yun Shicheng wanted to say something, but he did not dare speak.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly as he sat on his seat and looked at Yun Shicheng coldly. Then, his gaze focused on Yun Qingyao''s serene face. Her death didn''t seem to be painful, so the poison wasn''t that severe.


    An Xiang did not make everyone wait long, in a moment she was back with the coroner and the judge, and the two of them clasped their hands at Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang pointed to Yun Qingyao who was lying on the ground: "The Holy Mother is the protector of the nation, she did not expect to pass away so unluckily. This King suspects that there is some secret behind it, if not, how could a person who possesses Shaman Energy die so easily?"


    "Your Highness''s words are reasonable." The coroner knew what Jun Qingshang meant, and upon receiving the order, he immediately started to examine Yun Qingyao.


    The coroner inspected it very carefully, and did not miss a single spot, causing Yun Ruoleng''s gaze to become heavier, as she saw that when the coroner opened Yun Qingyao''s sleeves, a red line had obviously appeared on Yun Qingyao''s arm.


    The coroner saw that too and examined the poison with his silver needles before cupping his hands at Jun Qingshang, "The Holy Mother did die from poison, it''s just that this humble one isn''t proficient in it. What is this poison?"


    "The academy''s judge!" Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, his expression turning uglier.


    The judge took the needle from the coroner''s hand and examined it carefully. He placed it on his nose and took a sniff. There was a strange expression on his face.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned: "What did Master see?"


    "Young lady might not know this, but this poison is colorless and odorless. Furthermore, it has fused with my blood. This humble subject will need some time before I can discover it." The school judge was very polite to Yun Ruoleng, so polite that even Jun Qingshang was curious.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded, but his gaze did not leave Yun Ruoleng. "It''s said that there''s an imperial physician in the palace''s great hospital who knows a lot about poisons.


    The academy judge smiled bitterly as he stroked his grizzled goatee: "Qian Mo went to the capital to look for Crimson Pearl Grass yesterday. I probably won''t be able to return for a few months."


    "An Ying!" Jun Qingshang lowered his head, glanced at Yun Ruoleng who was on the ground, and coldly called out. "As for the Crimson Pearl Grass ¡­"


    "I don''t have anything else, but I do have a few stalks of Crimson Pearl Grass." Yun Ruoleng smiled faintly at the academy''s judgement, "The Qian Family''s Young Master is known as the Poison Doctor, but to find something like Crimson Pearl Grass, I''m afraid that I''ll have to rely on luck."


    The Academy Judge was a little embarrassed but also a little surprised. Crimson Pearl Grass was a mythical existence, if not for the fact that Yun Qingyao brought a stalk of Crimson Pearl Grass to him to mix with, he would have never known that such a medicinal herb existed in this world.


    It was also because at that time, Qian Mo had decided to start searching for Crimson Pearl Grass, but she didn''t expect that the most unfavored Seventh Miss of the Yun Palace would be able to take out a few at random.


    The most adept of the academy''s judgement was his medical skills. His understanding of poisons was indeed much less than that of Qian Mo''s. Yun Ruoleng would never deny the academy''s medical skills, and he had always trusted this academy''s judgement the most.


    After finding out that Yun Qingyao was poisoned, An Xiang found someone to put Yun Qingyao''s corpse into the Agarwood Coffin. Yun Shicheng looked at the quality of the coffin and took a deep breath.


    How many people could make coffins out of such fine wood?


    "How can the Lord''s flesh be so painful?" An Xiang asked casually.


    Yun Shicheng angrily glared at her, and snorted as he turned his face away.


    An Xiang sneered, not only was Yun Shicheng vain, he was also greedy for money, this coffin was bought using a thousand gold, if Yun Shicheng knew about this, he would probably run over and snatch it!


    In his heart, An Xiang silently felt that it was not worth it for Yun Ruoleng to have such a father.


    Yun Ruoleng did not have many relatives, and even though she had many relatives in this world, the only person who truly cared for her was Yun Qingyao. Now that Yun Qingyao had gone, it would be a lie to say that he was not sad.


    Because he couldn''t immediately find out where the poison came from, Yun Ruoleng could only put this matter aside and prepare for Yun Qingyao''s future.


    Cui Ying had returned at ten in the evening. Upon returning, she ran over to the Ao Xue Yuan, hugged Peach Blossom Red and cried until the sky turned dark. Yun Ruoleng sat at the door watching the two of them, as though he was moved somewhere in his heart, tears unceasingly flowed out from his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng wiped his face with his hand, and only then did he realize that he was crying. She knew that this was not his feelings, but the feelings of a soul in the deepest part of his body.


    Both of Yun Ruoleng''s hands were pressed on the left side of her chest. She swore to find the real culprit and tear her into pieces!


    Because there was no First Madam and Yun Yueyu in turmoil, Yun Qingyao''s funeral was extremely smooth sailing, and countless people came to offer their condolences. With Yun Ruoleng''s order to open the Minister¡¯s Mansion door, regardless of whether it was for the commoners or the generals, as long as they sincerely came to pay their respects, she would welcome them.


    In the entire Minister¡¯s Mansion, Yun Ruoleng became the person with the most authority.


    Yun Shicheng was naturally dissatisfied, but Yun Ruoleng kept using the phrase "The Prince has orders to bury the Holy Mother deeply, I will take responsibility for it during this period", which made Yun Shicheng so angry that he could only lock himself in his study and sulk.


    There were countless people coming to pay their respects at Minister¡¯s Mansion''s gate. For the citizens, it would be a great honor for the Holy Mother to leave. Naturally, no matter whether it was the people in the capital or outside the city, they would all come.


    Cui Ying had been quiet for a long time because of Yun Qingyao''s death. After Yun Qingyao was buried, Yun Ruoleng called Cui Ying to his side and started instructing him.


    "I''m also very sad that my elder sister passed away." Yun Ruoleng pulled Cui Ying and sat on the chair, as he gently wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes, "But sadness will not help in any way, it will only make the enemy happy, and the loved one pain."


    "What does Seventh Miss mean by this?" Cui Ying caught the meaning in Yun Ruoleng''s words and was instantly stunned.


    "Elder sister died from poison. Although I don''t know how, I have to investigate this matter thoroughly." Yun Ruoleng''s entire body shot out an unconcealable hatred.


    Cui Ying couldn''t help but shiver. Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s devastatingly beautiful face, he couldn''t help but sigh: "Seventh Miss, the only person the Third Young Miss can''t let go of in this life is you. You''d better not do anything stupid!"


    "Stupid Cui Ying, if you don''t do some things, others won''t do anything to you." Yun Ruoleng sneered: "Since she has the ability to poison, then she should bear my anger."

 C125

    "Seven ¡­" Cui Ying still wanted to advise her otherwise. After all, the poison this time would definitely involve a lot of people, and once they started to investigate this matter, it would bring about a lot of trouble.


    Yun Ruoleng reached out and patted her shoulder, shaking his head at her: "Stay by my side from now on!"


    "If Seventh Miss doesn''t say it, this servant will follow you." Cui Ying''s teary face turned into a smile, "Third young miss'' last words were for me to take good care of you, if I don''t follow you, how would I take care of you?"


    "Elder sister still cares about me even in death." Yun Ruoleng sighed lightly. Thinking of the Yun Qingyao who had once helped him a lot, Yun Ruoleng felt a burst of grief in his heart.


    Only after the two people had a long conversation in the room did Yun Ruoleng allow Cui Ying to rest well.


    When she heard that Yun Ruoleng had arrived, she was slightly surprised. However, when she saw Yun Ruoleng who had a gloomy face as he walked in, she frowned: "Who has provoked our Seventh Miss?"


    "No one offended me." Yun Ruoleng''s eyes swept across the servants around, and looked at Mrs. Luo with a smile that was not a smile, "Madam is still at ease, do you know that First Madam is about to be discharged?"


    "Isn''t there a Seventh Miss here?" Mrs. Luo covered her face and chuckled. She did not think that the Lan family would not respond to their pressure.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes that were staring at Mrs. Luo turned cold: "Letting it out is what I want, it''s just that Mrs. Luo should be careful of her counterattack."


    "Seventh Miss has his own plans, and I have mine as well. It''s not that it''s not good to release them." Mrs. Luo turned his body slightly and folded a peony next to him. "How can we make mistakes if we don''t come out?"


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly as he gave Mrs. Luo a thumbs up. As expected of her partner, how could she make a mistake if she didn''t come out?


    Having learned his lesson, he wouldn''t be able to doubt it even if he made a mistake later, right?


    The two of them reached an agreement once again. Then, Yun Ruoleng went to Yun Qingyao''s courtyard and moved to the Jade Bamboo Garden from the Ao Xue Yuan School.


    The Lan family came over to offer their condolences to Yun Qingyao. After learning that the First Madam had been confined, they constantly pressured him.


    The next day, First Madam was free, but the free range was only Minister¡¯s Mansion, which could be considered as a buffer to First Madam.


    Yun Ruoleng placed all the things from the Ao Xue Yuan into the Jade Bamboo Garden. The Garden was very big and was filled with spirit energy. It was also close to the First Madam''s Hibiscus Courtyard, which made it more convenient for her to monitor the First Madam''s every move.


    In order to not destroy Yun Qingyao''s belongings, Yun Ruoleng left the main house and stayed in the side rooms.


    An Xiang and Peach Blossom were very busy inside, inside and outside. Cui Ying did not idle around, he helped Yun Ruoleng make up the bed, and also helped him tidy up the study.


    The maidservants by the side of the young miss were divided into several ranks.


    There were two first-rate maidservants, four second-rate maidservants and six third-rate maidservants.


    There was a young miss, a maid of the first class, two maids of the second class, and four maids of the third class.


    However, the maids by Yun Ruoleng''s side were far from enough, when Mrs. Luo helped her out later, she rejected. In the gigantic Jade Bamboo Garden, there were only three maidservants and a guard, and a few of them were used by nanny.


    When First Madam heard that Yun Ruoleng had entered the Jade Bamboo Garden like a boy, let alone being happy, she only thought that Yun Ruoleng was courting death, that she didn''t even need to do anything. Yun Ruoleng didn''t know what First Madam was thinking at all. After she finished carrying the things, she had already collapsed on the bed.


    "Miss, Young Master Qian Mo returned to the capital this morning." An Xiang looked at Yun Ruoleng, who was lying on the bed without any strength left, and said in amusement, "Because we moved here, I sent him away and told him to come back tomorrow."


    Yun Ruoleng opened his eyelids, staring at the top of the mosquito net, no one knew what he was thinking.


    Tao Hong walked in and looked at the dazed Yun Ruoleng then looked at An Xiang who was standing there motionlessly. She asked suspiciously: "What did you say to the young miss?"


    An Xiang shrugged her shoulders. She had just said that she would send Young Master Qian Qian away and this was how the young miss looked like.


    "Peach red, bathe and change your clothes." Yun Ruoleng suddenly sat up on the bed, scaring An Xiang and Peach Blossom out of their wits. Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s fatigued look, the two did not hesitate at all.


    After bathing, Yun Ruoleng sat on the table and focused on An Xiang and An Yue, then said very seriously: "From today onwards, we are a group. No matter what kind of master you guys followed in the past, now that you have followed me, you will forget about the past!"


    "Yes sir!"


    "First Madam being able to move freely within the Minister¡¯s Mansion means that we are in greater danger. You must be careful in everything you do! " Yun Ruoleng''s voice was somewhat cold, and the atmosphere instantly became nervous.


    Peach Blossom and An Xiang were slightly more anxious: "Since young miss knows that she would retaliate, then why did you release her?"


    "How can she show her fox tail if she doesn''t come out?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, and glanced at the silent Cui Ying, "In the future, serve you and Peach Blossom by my side, An Xiang will have the time to be in charge of contacting Mo Zhan and the embroidery workshop, so An Yue will secretly observe every action taken by the First Madam."


    "Your servant obeys!"


    "This subordinate understands!"


    After Yun Ruoleng arranged for them to stay alert for a while, he waved his hand and said: "Go rest!"


    Night exploration seemed to have become a special technique for some king. Less than an hour after Yun Ruoleng laid in bed, the door to his room was pushed open.


    Although Yun Ruoleng was very tired, she woke up from her sleep and felt that the person who came was very light. After entering the room, she quickly closed the door and walked to her bedside.


    Yun Ruoleng fiercely attacked, but she did not expect someone to grab hold of her attacking fist, her long legs quickly pressing down on Yun Ruoleng''s calves: "Stop messing around!"


    The familiar voice made Yun Ruoleng heave a sigh of relief. "Why did you crawl into my bed again?"


    "Why don''t you crawl into This King''s bed?" Jun Qingshang eerily blew a breath of air into Yun Ruoleng''s ear.


    Yun Ruoleng pushed his head away forcefully and turned over to continue sleeping. He couldn''t beat him in a fight anyways, he couldn''t beat him no matter what, so he will do whatever he wants!


    Jun Qingshang felt that it was a bit uncomfortable to fall into empty space, so he stretched out his long arm to pull Yun Ruoleng into his embrace again.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable being hugged like this, and pushed himself away from Jun Qingshang''s chest, "Stay away from me, it''s so stifling!"


    "Just get used to it." Jun Qingshang loosened his arms slightly, but he did not let go of her. He rubbed her head again.


    Yun Ruoleng was speechless, how could he sleep if he hugged her like this!


    Although she had woken up in this position many times, that was after she had fallen asleep. She had never been hugged like this before!

 C126

    Jun Qingshang didn''t care about her feelings at all, and continued to hug her without letting her go. Yun Ruoleng hugged her tightly in his embrace, thinking that she probably wouldn''t be able to sleep that night.


    When he woke up in the morning, he still saw that devilish face, that pair of beautiful eyes s looking at him lovingly.


    Yun Ruoleng felt as if his heart missed a beat.


    "You''re awake?" Because Jun Qingshang had just woken up, his throat was a little hoarse, making him sound even more bewitching.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, and blankly looked at the handsome face that was just inches away from him. Jun Qingshang seemed to like her looking at him with this kind of soft and cute expression.


    The two of them looked at each other for a long time, until Yun Ruoleng suddenly regained his senses.


    "I don''t want to go." With a beauty in their bosom, who would still be willing to watch that brat go to the morning assembly?


    Jun Qingshang closed his eyes and tightened his arms, placing his chin on Yun Ruoleng''s hairy head, he enjoyed this kind of feeling.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, she was ashamed of his actions of staying in bed: "If Your Highness does not get up, I will make my move!"


    "How can Ruo Er bear to do that?" Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, bending over to kiss the top of her head.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression did not change as he reached out his finger and gently traced it across his adam''s apple. Jun Qingshang''s entire body went stiff, and the expression on his face became slightly complicated. Yun Ruoleng took the opportunity to roll out of Jun Qingshang''s embrace.


    Being seduced so early in the morning, the main culprit only kept the fire burning, Jun Qingshang''s face was extremely ugly, but the main culprit was sitting on his bed as if nothing had happened, smiling at him brilliantly.


    "Come here!" Jun Qingshang sat up and waved to Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng coldly snorted, she was not an idiot, she had taken advantage of Yun Ruoleng last night, and now that she had dodged it, there was no way she could go over there.


    Jun Qingshang''s face darkened and her tone became much colder, "Come here!"


    Seeing his expression, Yun Ruoleng was even more certain of his thoughts, and coldly snorted as he quickly formed a seal on his hand.


    This time, Jun Qingshang''s face was not dark, but was filled with rage. With a loud ''bang'' from his palm, the bed was directly smashed into pieces, and wood was splattered everywhere. Peach Blossom and Cui Ying who were packing their stuff outside heard the sound of the house and hastily pushed open the door and entered.


    "Cough, cough ¡­" Peach Red and Cui Ying, while dusting off the wood dust in the air, looked at the two people sitting on the ground in astonishment.


    Peach Blossom was still okay, as she was already used to a certain prince visiting her pavilion at night, but this was the first time for Cui Ying, so the first thing he did when he saw it was to put on clothes for Yun Ruoleng.


    "Miss, are you alright?"


    Yun Ruoleng was slightly stupefied. This was the first time she had seen Jun Qingshang get so angry.


    Jun Qingshang stood up with a calm face, Peach Blossom tactfully took her clothes from a few nearby clothes and put them on for Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose, stood up from within the rubble, and put on the clothes that Cui Ying had passed to him in embarrassment: "Prepare an iron wood bed when we get back."


    "¡­"


    "Cough!" Jun Qingshang cleared his throat, "Indeed it should be so."


    Cui Ying and Peach Blossom looked at each other. Peach Blossom shrugged as if she was used to their interaction.


    After meeting with such an embarrassing situation in the morning, Cui Ying and Peach Blossom both silently accompanied Yun Ruoleng by his side.


    Jun Qingshang sat opposite of Yun Ruoleng. He looked at the porridge on the table.


    Yun Ruoleng buried his head, his entire body feeling uncomfortable under the gaze of a pair of eyes, and he could not even taste anything to eat. Yun Ruoleng was a little depressed as he raised his head to stare at the main culprit, but Jun Qingshang did not even look at her.


    Frowning, Yun Ruoleng was slightly speechless. Was it his imagination?


    That fiery gaze once again landed on Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng looked at the man who lifted his eyelids, still looking at the serious expression on his face, and his expression instantly became more and more unsightly.


    "What happened to Ruo Er?" Yun Ruoleng could not eat anymore, and slammed the chopsticks in his hand onto the table. Jun Qingshang gracefully put down the chopsticks, took the handkerchief that Peach Blossom passed to him, and wiped her mouth as she asked.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted: "Your Highness has to leave, it''s not good to be seen."


    Jun Qingshang placed the handkerchief on the table, looked at the sun, and felt that it was indeed like that, nodded and left.


    After Jun Qingshang left, if your heart was cold and empty, even she didn''t know what was going on. Only after An Xiang brought Qian Mo into the hall did Yun Ruoleng readjust his state of mind and his gaze fell upon the man known as the "Poison Doctor".


    At the same time Yun Ruoleng was sizing up Qian Mo, Qian Mo was also sizing up Yun Ruoleng. When he saw Yun Ruoleng''s devastatingly beautiful face, he couldn''t help but frown.


    Everyone said that the Yun Family''s eldest daughter was the number one beauty in the world, but this Seventh Miss in front of her had such an astonishing appearance, how could she be so ugly?


    "Young master''s bearing is indeed extraordinary." Yun Ruoleng made an inviting gesture towards Qian Mo, who impolitely sat down beside him.


    "Lady doesn''t seem to be like what I''ve heard." Qian Mo smiled slightly, but his gaze landed on the box beside Yun Ruoleng''s hand. "I''ve already found the poison, it''s Ling Chi San. As the name implies, Ling Chi San is a medicine that will only die a few days after taking poison. "


    "Young Master is a talented person, can you please explain yourself more clearly?" Yun Ruoleng frowned in puzzlement. She was truly curious.


    "Ling Chi San is tasteless, and normal people use it more often than others. However, people with Shaman Energy would have venous blockages if they consumed it, and they would suffer from abdominal pain and headaches, as if they were suffering from a serious illness. It''s impossible to tell before the onset of the poison."


    "In addition, doctors treat those who don''t have any Shaman Energy, so they don''t know much about those who do. Taking Lingchi Powder is not something that will happen immediately, there will be some symptoms in three days or so, and death will occur in four or five days. "


    "So that''s how it is." A flash of killing intent appeared in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, "Is this medicine easy to find?"


    "This isn''t easy." Qian Mo glanced at the brocade box on the table and continued, "After all, this is a medicine specially used to deal with witches. Under normal circumstances, it is very difficult to find."


    "Where can I find it?" Yun Ruoleng asked. In fact, Jun Qingshang had once said that if one wanted to investigate, they could only start with medicine. Yun Ruoleng felt that this was indeed the case.


    "Actually, the drugs are just some ordinary drugs. I just need some supplementary medicine to create this poison." Qian Qian stared at Yun Ruoleng, as if she wanted to see something from her face.


    However, to his disappointment, Yun Ruoleng only glanced at him indifferently: "I know what you want. This is for you! "

 C127

    Qian Mo opened the box, and there was a stalk of Crimson Pearl Grass sealed in spiritual energy inside. Qian Mo liked the color of the plant very much, so he closed the box and continued, "The Evil Claw is the essential ingredient inside. I heard that it is the type of medicine that lives in a valley that is the opposite of Saint Wu Mountain, and the purer a person is, the more miserable they will die. "It''s said that only people who practice dark magic can get this kind of medicine."


    Dark Magi? Yun Ruoleng had never heard of this before, so he naturally looked at Qian Mo with great curiosity.


    Qian Mo carried the embroidered box and shook her head at Yun Ruoleng: "I''m not too sure about that either. In short, the Dark Witch is the witch''s enemy, and it''s been like this for thousands of years."


    After sending Qian Mo away, Yun Ruoleng leaned on the window and thought about Qian Mo''s words. The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he felt that the First Madam was. Yun Ruoleng knew that without evidence, he could not make a conclusion.


    What if there were other enemies?


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was deep in thought, a painful cry came from outside the window. Yun Ruoleng looked over and was surprised to see the two people fighting in the courtyard. He could not help but ask, "What are you guys doing?"


    "Your servant wants to practice martial arts in order to protect Miss." Tao Hong turned and smiled at Yun Ruoleng with determination.


    The Peach Blossom''s clear voice made the worries in Yun Ruoleng''s heart dissipate by a lot, and his mood improved by a lot.


    Yun Ruoleng knew that practicing martial arts was not something that could be done overnight, especially for someone like Peach Blossom who had no basics, so he did not care about it at all. He nodded to her before turning and leaving the window.


    Because she was in a bad mood, Yun Ruo Leng''s paintings were a little depressed, so she had not drawn anything for a few days. Since she had nothing better to do, she decided to draw a few sets of calligraphy and hand them over to Mo Zhan, as well as a few sets of embroidery materials to take to the embroidery workshop.


    Without the slightest hesitation, Yun Ruoleng turned around and entered another side room.


    It was the study room that he had just left, and it was much bigger than the one he had seen before.


    Yun Ruoleng would usually paint by the side with Peach Red, but now that Peach Blossom was training with An Xiang, she did not want to disturb him, so she entered the study room alone to grind the ink.


    After Cui Ying finished cooking and brought the tea into the room, he saw that Yun Ruoleng had finished painting a new painting and hung it on the bookshelf. It was not Cui Ying''s first time seeing a drawing, but she never thought that the Young Miss would draw so quickly. In less than an hour, she had already finished painting and even framed a painting.


    "Cui Ying, when you were in the Sacred Palace, did you hear about Dark Mages?" Yun Ruoleng looked back at Cui Ying and asked.


    Cui Ying regained his senses, as he placed the tea on the table, he said: "This servant has heard of the Dark Witch before in the Sacred Palace, but I do not know anything about them. I only know that they are the nemesis of the witch, and on the contrary, the witch is the nemesis of them too."


    "So it''s like that!" Yun Ruoleng sighed in disappointment, but what was certain was that the Dark Mage''s death was related to Yun Qingyao''s death.


    Speculation was always speculation, but Yun Ruoleng could not find any clues. He could only suspect that he might not be able to do anything to the other party.


    If they were to make a move, they might alert the enemy.


    "You can ask the king about the Dark Magi." An Yue soundlessly appeared in the study room. Cui Ying''s hands trembled in fear, and almost knocked over his injured tea bowl.


    Yun Ruoleng, on the other hand, was already used to it. Furthermore, she was thinking so much, she did not pay much attention to him. When she heard that Jun Qingshang might know about it, Yun Ruoleng immediately wanted to go and find him.


    "The prince is not in the capital today." An Yue gave Yun Ruoleng light and instantly gave her a bucket of cold water.


    Yun Ruoleng angrily picked up a book from the table and threw it at him, like a cat showing its claws, he bared its fangs: "Can''t you finish it in one breath? "It caused me to have such a wild joy."


    An Yue rubbed his nose, feeling that it was wrong.


    He wanted to finish his sentence, but her actions interrupted him.


    Yun Ruoleng took note of this matter in his heart, raised the teacup, and sipped on it gracefully. After sending the two of them off, he sat down by himself in the small study room and thought.


    "Giddap!"


    Outside the city, two horses galloped through the forest, leaving a trail of dust in the air that made people feel as if they were not hallucinating.


    "Mistress, there''s some Spiritual Qi fluctuation on the mountain path ahead. I wonder if it''s friend or foe." The one who spoke was none other than An Ying''s personal bodyguard, An Ying.


    Jun Qingshang did not speak, his gaze coldly staring at the front as the long whip in his hand forcefully whipped the horse''s butt. The horse roared and its hooves rose faster. An Ying did not dare to relax even a bit, and quickly rode his horse to catch up.


    "Phew ¡­" Jun Qingshang pulled his horse, staring at the black cloth sedan in front of him, without showing any emotions on his face. An Ying looked around at the situation, his gaze fixated on the black cloth in front of him.


    "Who are you?" Because the spirit energy around the sedan was too dense, and this kind of spirit energy was somewhat terrifying, An Ying could not help but want to see who was so bold.


    "I''m only here to discuss conditions with His Highness." The palanquin was not opened, four people appeared from the sky and surrounded them, "I heard that the prince has the Crimson Pearl Grass, so I came here to look for medicine, as long as you hand it over, I will let you leave."


    "Who told you that?" Jun Qingshang carelessly glanced at the four people surrounding him, "This king is really curious, this king doesn''t even know when he obtained a divine plant like the Crimson Pearl Grass, who has the ability to advertise it for this king?"


    "Who it is isn''t important. The important thing is whether the prince has it or not. If the Seventh Miss of the Yun Palace has it, it shouldn''t be a problem for the prince to get one." The voices of the people in the palanquin were hoarse, making it hard to tell if they were men or women.


    Jun Qingshang''s expression slightly darkened as he asked, "Aren''t you Dark Mages trying to stop this king in public for the sake of the Crimson Pearl that doesn''t exist in this world?


    "Your highness is skilled, but unfortunately, you are outnumbered." The person inside the palanquin seemed to be in control, as he did not place Jun Qingshang''s anger in his eyes at all.


    His voice was filled with confidence, as if this wasn''t a difficult matter.


    Jun Qingshang''s expression became dark again, but raised his beautiful eyes slightly, and agreed.


    The people in the palanquin seemed to not be afraid that Jun Qingshang would go back on his word. Seeing that Jun Qingshang had agreed, they used their spirit energy and disappeared into the mountain road. An Ying looked at Jun Qingshang worriedly: "Master, this group of people do not seem to be afraid at all. Do they have some backer?"


    "The Goddess is dead. I don''t think there are many who can compete with the Dark Wizard in the Heaven''s Enlightenment." Jun Qingshang''s eyes turned cold, and he said, "I''m afraid the Dark Mage intends to exterminate all of the witches. Pass down the order for the former Holy Mother to sit in the position of Holy Mother for the time being, until the next Holy Mother is elected, she shall be replaced. "

 C128

    Yun Ruoleng still didn''t know that she had been targeted by the Dark Mage. Right now, she was extremely uneasy and had a bad feeling about this.


    "Miss, have some ginseng soup to nourish your body." Peach Red placed a small cup of soup in front of Yun Ruoleng. Looking at her uneasy expression, she couldn''t help but tease, "Is Young Miss worried about the Prince?"


    "What am I worried about?" Yun Ruoleng coldly glanced at Peach Blossom, "Don''t tease me with him when you''re free."


    "This servant understands." Peach Blossom was not afraid of Yun Ruoleng at all, after she finished eating the soup, she even gave Yun Ruoleng a dubious look. Yun Ruoleng frowned. Her relationship with Jun Qingshang was indeed a little unclear, but it was not like what Peach Blossom and the others were thinking ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng knew that it would be useless no matter how much he explained. He might as well pretend that he didn''t know anything.


    But at night, Yun Ruoleng found a serious problem. Without Jun Qingshang''s embrace, she could not sleep at all.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng woke up with a pair of panda eyes and sat on the bed impatiently.


    Habit was really a disease! He had to be cured!


    After seeing Yun Ruoleng''s irritation, Peach Blossom who was originally a little doubtful became even more certain that Yun Ruoleng liked Jun Qingshang, but she herself did not know what was in her heart.


    Peach Blossom sighed. She felt that the Regent was rather pitiful and was trying to beat up the young miss, but even now, the young miss was still hesitating.


    Finished sighing, Peach Red handed a cup of Spirit-Sobering Tea to Yun Ruoleng and asked: "Miss, are we still going to the art exhibition today?"


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head listlessly: "I''m not going anymore. I didn''t sleep well last night, so I might as well sleep a bit more today! "


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not accept her Awakening Tea, Peach Blossom could only retract her hand: "Then young miss can rest for a bit longer. I heard that First Madam had called a crew to go over to the old lady''s side.


    Yun Ruoleng yawned and waved at Peach Blossom: "That''s true. Go and prepare for it! "


    Yun Ruoleng only woke up when it was late in the morning, Peach Blossom looked at Yun Ruoleng who had recovered a lot, and laughed: "I had thought young miss would only wake up at noon, and didn''t prepare anything at that time."


    Yun Ruoleng sat in front of the dressing table and casually rolled Peach Blossom''s hair into a bun, tied it with a light blue ribbon. She looked cute and mischievous, and a light blue pear blossom jacket dress added vitality to her original beauty.


    Peach Red stared blankly at the mirror. "Young miss is really beautiful ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled as he stood up, he casually brushed off the wrinkles on his body, and then brought Peach Blossom out.


    When the First Madam came out, his temperament had changed by quite a bit.


    If it was in the past, First Madam would not bother to visit Old Lady Yun. But today was different.


    Yun Ruoleng, who originally disliked listening to jokes, slightly frowned. Although Beijing Opera, Kunge, Sichuan Opera and the others were all Chinese national treasures, modern people still liked hearing those babbling sounds!


    When he brought Peach Blossom in, because it was too noisy and no one noticed her, Yun Ruoleng didn''t mind and walked over to Old Lady Yun to bow slightly. "Leng Er greets Grandmother."


    The Old Granny''s gaze turned back to Yun Ruoleng from the stage, and she nodded her head indifferently: "Find a seat and sit."


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng responded obediently as she raised her head to meet First Madam''s gaze. She could not help but smile slightly.


    First Madam nodded at Yun Ruoleng, which was considered form of greeting, and then she looked up to the stage again. However, the pleased look that flashed past her eyes, was memorized by Yun Ruoleng, which confirmed that Yun Qingyao''s death was related to her.


    After finding a seat at the back to sit down, Yun Ruoleng half leaned back in his chair to watch the performance on the stage. However, his mind had long ago flown a thousand miles away.


    After returning to the Jade Bamboo Garden, Yun Ruoleng asked An Yue to go and find him.


    "Miss, this servant had thought that there would be a fight to be had at the He An Courtyard." Peach Blossom was full of fighting spirit the whole morning. However, after she went, she realized that she was overthinking it and followed that group of people to watch the show for more than two hours.


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at her in annoyance, "Will First Madam scold me in front of this old lady? Right now, she wants to establish herself as a good wife, so naturally, she will not cause the old lady to be unhappy. "


    Perhaps it was because when he saw the old lady for the past few days, she would say "home and happiness", so the First Madam did not dare to take the risk to bully him.


    Peach Blossom was suddenly enlightened, "Yes, but Miss knows there''s nothing you can do, so what are you going to do?"


    "Silly girl!" Yun Ruoleng felt that Peach Blossom was truly a fool, and her thoughts were simple, to the point that she couldn''t even tell what she was thinking.


    "How did this servant become an idiot?" Peach Red pouted her small mouth in dissatisfaction. Her big, watery eyes swivelled around, making her look extremely adorable.


    "Think about it, when First Madam was trying to please the old lady and someone suddenly stepped in and messed up her plans, what would happen to her?" Yun Ruoleng really couldn''t stand how cute this girl was, he almost couldn''t control his own fingers and wanted to pinch her pink cheeks.


    "This servant understands. Miss went to create trouble for First Madam." Tao Hong suddenly realised, and laughed while looking at Yun Ruoleng, like a small dog asking for a reward.


    Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched, if only it was to add to the problem, First Madam would not be so angry that his face would turn green.


    But it was not bad that she could guess this. Yun Ruoleng patted her head as a reward for doing so: "Alright, let''s go down and play!"


    After Peach Blossom received the reward, she ran away happily, not noticing Yun Ruoleng''s unpredictable little face at all.


    A gust of wind blew past, and Yun Ruoleng stared coldly at the window: "Who?"


    "I heard that the Yun Family produced beautiful women, and seeing them today is indeed the case." A black-clothed man covered in black qi suddenly appeared in front of the window. He spoke in a hoarse voice and wore a bamboo hat. His entire body was covered in black smoke, making him look like an evil spirit that crawled out of hell.


    And the evil spirit energy that came from the black clothed person''s body made Yun Ruoleng feel extremely disgusted: "Do you know that the Yun Family does not only produce beauties?


    A witch? You''re a Dark Wizard, right? Aren''t you afraid of the backlash of the pure spiritual energy? "


    "Ordinary Dark Magi do fear, but I am different." The black clothed man took a step forward and smiled sinisterly, "The spirit energy in your courtyard is indeed pure, no wonder you could produce a witch like Yun Qingyao."


    Yun Ruoleng''s face did not look good, moving to the courtyard was not a secret, it was just that once he came, he knew that the place was where Yun Qingyao used to live, so was there nothing strange about it?

 C129

    Yun Ruoleng saw that the black-clothed man was getting closer and closer to him, and subconsciously took a step back: "Did you kill my sister?"


    "I want to kill her." The black clothed man sneered. His hoarse voice made people''s hair stand on end, "But I will never use such a despicable method. Because she is the only person in the world who can be my match. "


    "Elder sister is dead, are you very lonely?" Yun Ruoleng suddenly felt that standing at the peak of this world was more lamentable than his opponent.


    "Yes, and no." The black clothed man did not continue approaching Yun Ruoleng. Instead, he found a spot to sit and suddenly said, "If you want to know more about the Dark Wizard, I can tell you."


    Yun Ruoleng was shocked, then sneered: "Why should I believe you?"


    "I have conditions." The black clothed man poured a cup of tea for himself, the black mist surrounding his body disappeared, a pair of bony hands held onto the teacup, although he could not see what a person looked like, Yun Ruoleng''s heart was at ease.


    Well, he was still human after all!


    "If you want it, even if I have it, I will not give it to you. If I want to ask, there will naturally be people who will tell me." Yun Ruoleng snorted, and extended her hand to snatch the tea from his hand, "Please forgive me for not giving it away!"


    The black-clothed man was obviously stunned. He raised his head, and his eagle-like gaze locked onto Yun Ruoleng''s fearless little face. After a long while, he stood up.


    "Up to you!" Yun Ruoleng seemed to have understood something. Maybe the people did not have a deep understanding of the Dark Mages, so towards the black-clothed man, Yun Ruoleng just let him leave in a neither cold nor warm manner.


    Not long after the black-clothed man left, a purple figure flashed in, pulling Yun Ruoleng along to size her up.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at him in a daze, but his entire heart was beating crazily according to frequency. Yun Ruoleng strongly suppressed this feeling, opened his mouth and finally let out a light laugh.


    "Still laughing!" Jun Qingshang''s face was sullen, he stared at the woman who was laughing so loudly, "Do you know how scary dark Magi are?! Aren''t you afraid that he will kill you? "


    "I think Dark Magi have good people and bad people too!" Yun Ruoleng chuckled. "Just like Yun Qingyao and Yun Yueyu, their personalities are completely different. One of them has no desire in the world, the other is as narrow-minded as a snake and scorpion."


    "Most of the reason why the Dark Wizard is not tolerated by the world is because the witch purposely made rumors about them. You can''t deny that there are many such things in the world! Isn''t there a typical person in my family? "


    The light in Jun Qingshang''s eyes dimmed, he had not expected that Yun Ruoleng could actually see it so clearly.


    The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. As expected of the woman he had taken a fancy to.


    "Jun Qingshang, tell me about the Dark Wizard!" Yun Ruoleng pulled Jun Qingshang down and sat him down, and then fawned over and poured him a cup of tea, "I think sister''s death is related to the Dark Wizard."


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze once again landed on Yun Ruoleng''s little face of expectation. Suddenly, he felt that he couldn''t reject her request, and after a long while he spoke out slowly: "A long time ago, the Dark Mages and the Pure Mages were a group, but because the environment they lived in was different, the results of their training were different. The places where the Dark Mages live didn''t even grow a single blade of grass, and they practically relied on the Black Spirit Qi to survive.


    "I''ve read about them in books." Yun Ruoleng frowned, he was slightly unhappy, "I am not asking you to tell me a story, I just want to know if there are any Dark Magi in the capital. "Where is it, and how can it be found?"


    "Danger." Jun Qingshang''s eased face instantly became serious, and his cold voice refused.


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows furrowed even more. He used a voice that both of them could hear and said, "I only suspect that the Lan family is colluding with the Dark Witch."


    Jun Qingshang slowly raised his brows, the beautiful eyes slightly narrowed: "This king will naturally investigate this matter, don''t take the risk."


    After a pause, he continued, "The Heavenly Awakening cannot do without a Holy Mother."


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Jun Qingshang, he watched as Jun Qingshang left and did not know how to react.


    What did he mean?


    It turned out that he had always been good to her because Heaven''s Initiation could not lack the Virgin.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed bitterly and turned to enter the study room.


    Yun Ruoleng sat in his study gloomily, admiring his own painting. To say that he was appreciating it was just looking at it and doing it. Cui Ying went in and out to change her some tea but she didn''t notice him.


    When Jun Qingshang came out from the Jade Bamboo Garden, his expression was not good. He never thought that the Dark Mage would actually go and find Yun Ruoleng, and from the looks of it, he seemed to have brainwashed Yun Ruoleng.


    "An Ying, send people to secretly monitor every move of the Lan family." Jun Qingshang''s face was extremely ugly to behold. The Lan family had always looked down on others in the imperial court, and if he dared to hide any Dark Mage, that would be asking for it!


    In that case, the Lan family of the four noble families would disappear without a trace.


    That night, after Yun Ruoleng sent Cui Ying and the others to sleep. He went alone to the small bamboo forest at the back. As soon as he stepped out of the door, his path was blocked.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at him in displeasure: Follow me!


    An Yue nodded and let him in. As the two of them entered the small bamboo forest, one in front and one behind, a wave of pure spirit energy gushed towards them. Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath greedily, and An Yue, who was behind them, looked at Yun Ruoleng in astonishment.


    An Yue was surprised to see that the small bamboo forest had such pure spirit energy, and the person in front of him could actually breathe freely inside.


    An Yue suddenly realised that he seemed to have found out an astonishing secret.


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng casually finding a place to sit down and cultivate, An Yue could no longer hold it in, and asked: "Are you a witch too?"


    Isn''t this obvious? Yun Ruoleng lightly swept a glance at him and ignored him. Both of his hands formed a seal in front of his chest and his body seemed to become like a magnet, sucking in the surrounding spirit energy.


    An Yue was dumbstruck. It was not that he had never seen a Witch absorbing the Heaven and Earth aura before, but she was injecting it into his body little by little.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t know what An Yue was thinking at all. After circulating his spirit energy for a cycle, he suddenly realized that he had levelled up.


    His hand formed a seal again, stopping the absorption.


    "Let''s go!" Yun Ruoleng stood up, not giving An Yue a chance to speak, he stood up and left.


    An Yue could only suppress his words in his heart, secretly deciding to protect this witch more.


    Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was about to arrive, Yun Ruoleng had already prepared the gifts she would need to enter the palace, but she hadn''t seen Jun Qingshang for several days. It made her feel inexplicably dejected, so much so that she felt listless for several days.


    "Miss, the embroidery workshop has sent over a few sets of clothes. They are the blueprints you gave me last time, and I''ve made them. Please take a look!" An Xiang walked in with a small bundle, placed it on the table, and quickly opened it up.

 C130

    Yun Ruoleng weakly glanced at the clothes on the table and nodded: "Open them for me to see."


    An Xiang also wanted to make Yun Ruoleng happy a little, but unfortunately, it didn''t reach the desired result. Yun Ruoleng glanced at it, then waved his hand: "Very good, send it back."


    "Miss ¡­" An Xiang''s smile froze on his face, he looked at Yun Ruoleng who was still sprawled out on the window. Sighing, he wrapped up his clothes and took him away.


    Not long after An Xiang left, Jun Qingshang really came back, and he walked in a little tiredly. Yun Ruoleng quivered his body that was lying before the window, "You ¡­ "Why are you here?"


    "Ruo Er was lying in front of the window looking extremely ill. Did he really think this king would hand it over?" Jun Qingshang did not miss the surprise and excitement in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, and so he made fun of him.


    "You think too much!" Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly and turned her head away, she did not want to be bewitched by his smiling face!


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, extended his hand and pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, then laughed sinisterly: "Is my Ruo Er shy now?"


    Yun Ruoleng pushed hard on his chest: "Who''s shy? "Hurry up and let me go!"


    Jun Qingshang strongly imprisoned her in his embrace, his thin chin resting on her shoulder as he lightly sighed: "This king has missed you."


    Yun Ruoleng''s body froze, and he did not know how to continue.


    Maybe because he was too tired, Jun Qingshang just carried Yun Ruoleng and fell asleep. Yun Ruoleng laid in Jun Qingshang''s embrace, and when she heard his heartbeat, her heart throbbed a little.


    Suddenly, his body felt a push, and with a plop, Yun Ruoleng fell to the ground.


    "It hurts, it hurts ¡­" Yun Ruoleng held onto his waist, staring angrily at the man on the bed, only to realize that his eyes were closed and his breathing was even, obviously he was asleep.


    Yun Ruoleng''s head was filled with black lines, he almost gritted his teeth as he crawled up from the ground and lightly walked to the door.


    The voice was not loud a moment ago, but because Jun Qingshang came, no one went in. At this time, seeing Yun Ruoleng coming out with a darkened face, with one hand covering his head and the other supporting his waist, everyone was very surprised.


    "Miss ¡­ Where''s the Wang ¡­ the Prince? " Peach Red boldly asked.


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at her coldly: "Dead!"


    The few of them were almost scared to death. Peach Blossom and Cui Ying had yet to react when they saw two figures flying in and turned to leave without caring about it. Peach Blossom and Cui Ying quickly followed and waited on them carefully, afraid that they would make her unhappy.


    Jun Qingshang slept soundly, and when he woke up, it was already night time.


    "Mistress, you''re awake?" An Xiang ran outside excitedly. Because he was too anxious, he was almost tripped over, so Jun Qingshang slightly frowned, and suspiciously surveyed his surroundings. Only now did he realise that he was in Yun Ruoleng''s room, and couldn''t help but to slightly raise his brows, as the corner of his mouth raised in a slight curve.


    However, just as his mouth arched upwards, he saw Yun Ruoleng walking towards him aggressively: "Since Your Highness is awake, then please go back!"


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang was a little suspicious. Previously, Yun Ruoleng''s attitude was clearly better, but now?


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t speak, and directly moved her small face aside.


    Jun Qingshang looked at An Xiang. An Xiang innocently shrugged her shoulders, she really did not know what was going on.


    Jun Qingshang''s brows tightly knitted together, "Ruo Er, you ¡­"


    "Your Highness, this is my boudoir!" Yun Ruoleng interrupted him with a cold voice, "If someone finds out, what will become of my reputation? What should His Highness do? In short, His Highness doesn''t want to come anymore. "


    After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he turned around and left. However, Jun Qingshang stretched out his long arm, and grabbed her wrist directly. "What exactly is this duke in your heart?"


    "Your Highness is wise and wise, and is the dream lover of all the women in the world. However, you are not the person that I, Yun Ruoleng, entrust to you. Because... "Because I''m grateful to you in my heart, and I''ve never done anything else." Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, her gaze falling upon his grip on her wrist. Although it was painful, she did not frown at all, "Your Highness, please behave yourself!"


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze turned slightly cold as her hands slowly loosened.


    So it turned out that she was not doing it on purpose.


    After Jun Qingshang left, An Xiang said hesitantly, "Miss ¡­"


    "If you want to go back, then go back." Yun Ruoleng left these words behind for An Xiang, and then left without turning back.


    An Xiang looked at her leaving figure with hesitation. After a long while, he finally returned to his room.


    Yun Ruoleng was sitting in his study, flipping through the history of the Heaven''s Enlightenment. Peach Blossom followed him in, but was hesitant to speak as she walked in front of Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyes slightly. "When did you and I become like this?"


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Blossom looked at her somewhat sorrowfully. "Why did you injure His Highness to such an extent?"


    Yun Ruoleng slowly put down the book and sighed: "My heart isn''t here, why would I implicate others."


    "But the prince is very good to you!" Peach Blossom really didn''t understand. The prince was so wise and martial, and also had such a handsome man. Why didn''t her young mistress like him?


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head and smiled at her, "You will know when you fall in love with someone."


    "Young, young miss ¡­"


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng replied indifferently.


    "Don''t tell me you have someone you love?" Peach Blossom seemed to have caught on to something and suddenly cried out, "That won''t do! If the old master finds out, I''ll skin you alive. "


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng reached out her hands to support her forehead. She could even think of such a thing.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at her snappily. "Shut up! I just want to take revenge, I don''t have any other plans, and as for the one I love, that''s even more so. You''re blabbering, I''m afraid that everyone in Heaven''s Awakening will know about it! "


    "Hehe, this servant knows she was wrong." Peach Blossom fawned over Yun Ruoleng as she held onto Yun Ruoleng, shaking her sleeves like a spoiled child, "This servant will not talk about the matter between you and the Prince, just keep watching, this servant will prepare hot water for you!"


    Yun Ruoleng helplessly looked at the Peach Blossom that was skipping away.


    When he calmed down, only then did Yun Ruoleng realize that his heart had long ago become a mess, and somewhat unhappily closed the book in his hand.


    Jun Qingshang had not come to the Jade Bamboo Garden in a row for more than ten days. However, what surprised Yun Ruoleng was that although he had not come back since that day, both An Yue and An Xiang were still there.


    Suddenly, a green-clothed maid was brought in by An Xiang. Yun Ruoleng lifted his head from the book and sized her up: "Lu''er, what did Mrs. Luo ask you to send us again?"


    "To return to the Seventh Miss, this is a newly crafted piece of jewelry." Lu''er looked very delicate, with a pair of amorous eyes that seemed to be smiling yet not smiling. Anyone who looked at her would always have wild thoughts. However, the first time Yun Ruoleng saw her, he felt that this girl was not simple.

 C131

    Yun Ruoleng nodded towards An Xiang, who took out two taels of silver from his sleeves and gave it to her, then took the tray and walked towards the dressing table in the room.


    "This servant thanks the Miss for her gift." Lu''er slightly bowed, neither servile nor overbearing, and her etiquette was just right.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed lightly: "This mouth is so sweet, yesterday I got this pearl hairpin looked really nice, please give it to Mrs. Luo for me!"


    "This servant thanks Miss on behalf of Madam." Lu''er bowed slightly, her mouth filled with a faint smile.


    An Xiang took out a box and gave it to Lu''er, then sent her out of the courtyard.


    After Lu''er left, Yun Ruoleng''s face slowly darkened. There would be a hard battle the next day.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng was woken up by Peach Blossom and the others. Because he had slept late last night, he was able to finish waking up and missed out on a good show.


    Yun Ruoleng sat in front of the dressing table, listening to the endless stream of pink talking about the matter of First Madam''s old master causing the young miss to be released, his brows slightly knitted: "He released her?"


    "The old master was accused by the First Madam of wanting to see the empress dowager in person, so the old master had no choice but to release her." Peach Blossom also felt a bit of anger, he actually turned First Madam over just like that.


    "What''s the hurry?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "We still don''t know who will win!"


    "Does Miss have a plan?" Peach red eyes darted around as he asked curiously.


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly: "This time, you and Cui Ying have to guard the house, An Xiang and I will be fine."


    Peach Red nodded, and with a sense of loss, she put down the fan in her hands and placed a pair of jade lotus hairpins onto Yun Ruoleng''s bun. She nodded her head solemnly: "I will guard every corner of the room well, I definitely won''t make First Madam my demon."


    Yun Ruoleng laughed, and comforted her: "Don''t worry, An Yue will protect you in the dark."


    "En!" After Peach Red heard this, she also calmed down a lot. She chose a light purple chest dress for Yun Ruoleng and wore a light purple jade orchid robe. She put the Smoky Water Spirit Jade on her waist and helped fix the silver ornaments around her neck before smiling at Yun Ruoleng in satisfaction.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t like the heavy headwear and the thick scent of rouge, so this outfit looked fresh and elegant, just like the orchids on the clothes.


    Peach very satisfied with his masterpiece, feel their young lady wearing anything beautiful.


    Yun Ruoleng went to the Pine Crane Hall early in the morning. She knew that if she didn''t go now, there would be people who would become demons again.


    When Yun Ruoleng finished his breakfast and arrived at the Songhe Hall, Yun Shicheng, First Madam, Yun Yueyu and the Mrs. Luo were all present.


    A pretty Yun Yu, the eldest daughter of the Third Branch''s direct heir, who was seven years old this year, was the granddaughter of the Old Granny''s most beloved daughter.


    A concubine with four concubines who had the same experience as him, Yun Ye Qing. However, Yun Ruoleng did not sympathize with her, because this girl who was younger than him by a year previously, had often been ordered by Yun Yueyu to bully him.


    "Seventh Sister." Yun Ye Qing looked at Yun Ruoleng timidly, opened his mouth, and in the end, only bowed slightly, and no longer spoke.


    "Our daughter pays respects to Father, Mother and Mrs. Luo." Yun Ruoleng ignored her, bowing to Yun Shicheng, who was in charge, as he laughed sarcastically.


    Yun Shicheng gave a guilty cough, "Since you''re already here, let''s go."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, and when he turned around, he slightly nodded his head to Yun Yueyu: "So sister has also come out!"


    "It was all thanks to little sister that big sister was able to come out so quickly." Yun Yueyu still could not hide the killing intent in his eyes, but he still smiled in response.


    "It''s good that you know." Yun Ruoleng replied gloomily as he followed Yun Shicheng out.


    When walking to Yun Shicheng''s side, Yun Ruoleng used a voice that could be heard by the two of them, "If father disobeys Your Highness''s orders, I''m afraid that when he enters the palace he will have to account to Your Highness. Right, I also said that I heard about this with the emperor, that the emperor was afraid that I would be bullied and sent a White Tiger, what does he mean by knowing father?"


    Yun Shicheng''s entire body shuddered and his pupils constricted: "Why didn''t you say so earlier?"


    "Father didn''t ask either." Yun Ruoleng chuckled as he sped up his footsteps, leaving a dazed and flabbergasted Yun Shicheng standing on the spot.


    When Yun Ruoleng walked out of Minister¡¯s Mansion''s gate, he saw a luxurious carriage stopped at the door. The carriage''s walls were made from rosewood and the curtains were made with a soft smoke that was hard to come by in three years.


    Even the two horses that were pulling the cart were rare sweat-brown horses.


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched. With one look, he could tell that this was Yun Yueyu''s car belonging to that showy rich woman. It was also the size of the Lan family, and something that he could afford.


    "Miss, your servant has arranged for a carriage." An Xiang blinked his eyes at Yun Ruoleng: "First Madam is out, I''m afraid she has some tricks towards the carriage."


    Yun Yueyu nodded, seeing the carriage coming out from the alley, the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "Black Iron Fragrance Wood, Ferghana Horse, Yun Lingjin, An Xiang, you are really willing to do this!"


    "I can''t be blamed!" An Xiang looked at Yun Ruoleng with a wronged expression, and glanced back from time to time: "When this servant was preparing the carriage, Zhen Jun said that I would give it to him ¡­ This servant only knew about it now. "


    "He looks ordinary, but do you know that this set is even more valuable than Yun Yueyu''s?" Yun Ruoleng helplessly held his forehead, these people really did not care about money.


    "This servant feels that something is amiss!" An Xiang immediately retorted, "Darksteel Incense Wood is invulnerable to swords and spears. Although the Thousand-Li Horse cannot compare to Young Master Mo''s Traceless Snowsteps, it is still the best amongst horses. As for Yun Lingjin ¡­ Your servant watched as the prince brought a big box over. No need to blame yourself for that ¡­ But it''s all for your own good, isn''t it? "


    An Xiang''s words were spoken extremely loudly and everyone behind him could hear it clearly. Especially Yun Yueyu''s small face, as though she was about to explode from anger. She snorted coldly and walked forward, and when she arrived beside Yun Ruoleng, she intentionally gave him a glance.


    Zhen Jun did it for her own safety, she did not feel that it was a waste, but as for this Yun Lingjin, Yun Ruoleng suddenly remembered that the last time An Ying brought people to deliver a few boxes, saying that they were obtained by the Duke through an inspection of a corrupt official.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Yun Lingjin with a pained expression. This girl really did come out of Regent¡¯s Mansion.


    Compared to Yun Yueyu''s luxurious carriage that was filled with gems, Yun Ruoleng''s carriage was the most luxurious, only the kind that kept a low profile.


    Yun Yu was still young and had less experience than the adults. She snorted disdainfully at Yun Ruoleng''s carriage: "Isn''t it just a broken carriage? "You''re not as pretty as Big Sis, what''s there to be proud about?"

 C132

    Everyone looked at her strangely, but An Xiang laughed without the slightest trace of politeness: "I''m guessing that tenth miss'' father, Feng Lu, would not be able to afford that carriage curtain after a year!"


    "You ¡­" Yun Yu was so angry that her face turned red. Her father was only a third-grade Minister of Rites, but he had no power at all. Naturally, Feng Lu had too little.


    "An Xiang!" Yun Ruoleng interrupted her words coldly, "Let''s go!"


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang proudly raised an eyebrow at Yun Yu, and happily left behind Yun Ruoleng.


    When Mrs. Luo saw this, he looked at Yun Ruoleng with hesitation. Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed, nodded, and laughed: Why not Mrs. Luo come and see the speed of a thousand li horse?


    Mrs. Luo did not think that Yun Ruoleng would actually agree to it, and was slightly surprised.


    On the other hand, Yun Shicheng''s face did not look good, hearing what Yun Ruoleng said, he coldly snorted and left with a flick of his sleeve.


    Looking at Yun Shicheng who had left, and then looking at Yun Ruoleng who was about to get on the carriage, a sneer flashed past Mrs. Luo''s eyes, and he walked towards Yun Ruoleng''s carriage.


    After Yun Ruoleng entered the carriage, he discovered that the arrangement inside was very simple. A small sandalwood table was set up in the middle of the carriage, with dark red fox fur covering the ground. On the small table, there was a set of tea set with a purple sand pot, as well as snacks and a small stove.


    Yun Ruoleng sat on the soft couch, he touched the items on it and the corner of his mouth twitched: "You''re using the Soft Mist Luo as well?"


    "Ugh ¡­" Zhen Jun said Miss Lu could sleep more comfortably. " An Xiang carefully observed Yun Ruoleng''s expression after he finished speaking, and seeing that she did not have any reaction, he was relieved.


    The curtain was lifted, and Lu''er supported herself onto the carriage, smiling at Yun Ruoleng: "Seventh Miss''s carriage is truly excellent."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded and made an inviting gesture towards Mrs. Luo. An Xiang placed the teapot on top of the small stove to boil some water, the carriage outside also began to move.


    "I didn''t stop the old master. Seventh Miss ignored my past grievances and expressed his gratitude."


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "If you persuade him, he wouldn''t be Yun Shicheng. But isn''t Mrs. Luo afraid of him getting angry if he purposefully walks with me today? "


    Mrs. Luo sighed, "On the other hand, I feel that if I rely on him, I might as well rely on myself so that I can find a way to survive. "Right now, the court is divided into the Royal Protector and the Third Marquis. The Lan family has chosen the Third Marquis'' faction, while my brother has chosen the Royal Protector. You know that the Emperor is still young, even though he has the Regent ¡­"


    "Your majesty is small, but your intelligence isn''t small." Yun Ruoleng swept her slender fingers across the table and said softly, "He is smarter than anyone else. Hiding behind His Highness as a child, letting His Highness block everything for him, don''t you think?"


    Mrs. Luo''s face froze for a moment, and then he laughed bitterly: "Looks like Seventh Miss is a man who understands."


    "I''ve heard that Seventh Brother has been travelling for many years. I wonder when he''ll be back." Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised, his eyes were bright and full of spirit, as though he was looking forward to the man''s return.


    The corner of Mrs. Luo''s mouth raised into a faint smile, "Seventh Miss is so concerned about me, I wrote about Seventh Miss on Yun Yi''s behalf before."


    "No need!" There was another reason why Yun Ruoleng chose the Mrs. Luo back then, and that was because the boy who was unsatisfied with Yun Shicheng''s greed, had left with his master at the age of seven.


    It had been seven years. It was time to return.


    There were a lot of daughters in the Yun Family, so there were naturally a lot of men as well. When Yun Ruoleng thought about Yun Yi coming back, he reckoned that even First Madam would not be able to sit still, so he decided to call his precious son back!


    Yun Ruoleng was looking forward more and more to the Yun Family in the future.


    The palace door was quickly arrived, the east gate was entered by the officials, and the west gate was the place where the female servants from each palace entered. Yun Ruoleng alighted from the carriage, who knew that he would meet Lan Yu''er who arrived earlier than her.


    Lan Yu''er glanced at Yun Ruoleng''s dressing, and left with a sneer.


    Yun Ruoleng spread out his fingers and looked around, and asked An Xiang who was beside him in puzzlement: "Is there a problem with my clothes?"


    An Xiang shook his head, his gaze sweeping across the beautifully dressed women around, and could not help but sigh.


    What do you think, miss?


    Yun Ruoleng slightly raised her lips, then looked at Mrs. Luo, who was getting off the carriage, and frowned. Mrs. Luo slightly raised the corner of her mouth, and seeing her expression, she laughed lightly: "Seventh Miss might look simple dressed, but anything that is on her body, is worth tens of thousands of gold."


    Yun Ruoleng embarrassedly touched her nose. Her clothes were made from Shu brocade, and came from the brocade workshop, which required at least ten thousand gold coins to buy, not to mention the Smoke Water Spirit Jade, which was made from top-notch jade. Naturally, it was expensive, but this Mrs. Luo had sharp eyes, and could easily see through it.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded to her, it was her life to keep a low profile and luxurious.


    A flower butterfly like Yun Yueyu would never be able to achieve greatness.


    Yun Ruoleng followed First Madam and the others into the palace. A servant girl suddenly ran over and sized them up, her gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng and suddenly bowed to him, "This servant, Wan Rong, pays her respects to the various young miss.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded to her, he did not understand why the young maid would be so courteous to her the first time he entered the palace.


    An Xiang stuck her head out from behind her, her large, watery eyes looked at Wan Rong in shock, "Aunt is the emperor''s personal maid, I think the emperor sent her here on purpose!"


    Wan Rong chuckled, "Miss An Xiang guessed right. I wonder if Seventh Miss can come with me? "


    "It just so happens that I should go and thank the Emperor for gifting the tiger." Yun Ruoleng bowed towards First Madam and the rest, and followed the servant without turning back.


    "Mother, look at her ¡­" Yun Yueyu looked at Yun Ruoleng who was arrogantly leaving, and angrily pointed at his back and roared.


    However, the moment he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by the cold gaze of the First Madam. "If you don''t go to the palace to see the empress dowager first, that would be disrespectful."


    Yun Yueyu''s eyes lit up, the corners of his mouth raised, as he looked in the direction Yun Ruoleng left in glee.


    Mrs. Luo glanced in the direction Yun Ruoleng left in with worry.


    Yun Ruoleng and Wan Rong walked towards the rear palace. Wan Rong was a quick-witted girl, so once she received the Little Emperor''s orders, she naturally wouldn''t let Yun Ruoleng disrespect the empress dowager, so she directly brought Yun Ruoleng to the empress dowager''s Tender''s Palace.


    Yun Ruoleng first let An Xiang and Wan Rong wait outside. He walked in while carrying a box carved with Agarwood.


    Her simple attire was astonishing. The servants of the old empress dowager naturally stopped her when they saw the stranger''s arrival.


    "This humble one, Yun Ruoleng, is here to pay her respects to the empress dowager. Yun Ruoleng laughed as he stuffed a handkerchief into nanny''s hands, and said softly, "nanny''s handkerchief is old, this Soft Mist handkerchief is given to nanny."

 C133

    The Soft Mist Luo was indeed a good item. A handkerchief could be exchanged with 100 taels of silver, nanny was naturally happy and led Yun Ruoleng to the great hall where the empress dowager met her guests.


    "This young lady is very intelligent, and her excellent work has made the empress dowager praise her endlessly. The empress dowager has been talking about her for some time now." The nanny looked at Yun Ruoleng and smiled to please him. After all, he was a grandmaster painter of the Heavenly Awakening Realm.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled faintly: "It''s good that the empress dowager likes it, it''s just that this is a gift from the prince, I don''t dare to take any credit for it."


    "Miss is joking." nanny''s good impression of Yun Ruoleng increased, and he looked at Yun Ruoleng becoming more amiable.


    When they arrived at the entrance of the Hall of Phoenixes, nanny smiled at Yun Ruoleng and said, "After Miss has waited for a while, this servant will go and report to you right away."


    In the Phoenixcloud Hall, the princess consort and the various madams and mistresses were all sitting inside to accompany the empress dowager in a chat. There were far too many noisy conversations, causing the empress dowager to feel restless.


    At this time, nanny ran in and whispered a few words into the empress dowager''s ears. The empress dowager raised her gaze and her shrewd eyes lit up. "Are you serious?"


    "This servant has already tested him. This person is indeed ¡­" The nanny stopped mid-sentence and smiled at the empress dowager.


    The empress dowager laughed heartily. "This girl is neither humble nor haughty, but she has a calm and composed personality. She can go along with Xin''er." Let her in! "


    The empress dowager''s words made everyone else think, their gazes falling on the door. Yun Ruoleng appeared at the entrance of the hall in a light purple color.


    Such a beautiful girl.


    When they finally regained their senses, Yun Ruoleng had already knelt in the middle of the Main Hall and was holding a wooden box carved with Agarwood. "This subject''s daughter, Yun Ruoleng, pays respects to the empress dowager and specially brought a thousand year old Agarwood Box and a personal painting of the ''Mid-Autumn Moon Circle''. I wish the empress dowager the best in everything."


    "Look at this mouth." The empress dowager chuckled as she stood up and helped Yun Ruoleng up.


    Agarwood was even a thousand-year-old painting. Everyone was dumbstruck when they heard this. Then, they realized that he was a grandmaster level painter. Any one of his paintings was worth millions of silver, while any better ones cost hundreds of thousands of gold! Mo Zhan only showed one painting a month, and those who went in to admire it would have to pay five taels of silver. Such a large sum of money was not surprising at all.


    The empress dowager pulled Yun Ruoleng''s hand and sat down at the head of the table. Taking the opportunity to pull her along, Yun Ruoleng shook his head with a chuckle.


    "Girl, you know what to do." The more the empress dowager saw, the more she liked Yun Ruoleng. Seeing her outfit, she frowned slightly.


    "If the empress dowager likes it, prepare a brush and ink. This subject''s daughter will make a few, and someone will embroider them for you." Yun Ruoleng could feel the good impression the empress dowager had towards him, but how could he not hug his thighs?


    The empress dowager was naturally happy, and asked nanny Sun, who had just led the way, to prepare the items, as if wanting Yun Ruoleng to perform in front of everyone.


    Some of them were looking down on her, while others were curious about her. In short, everyone had different motives.


    After preparing the drawing, Yun Ruoleng took out his brush and quickly drew a twelve-tailed phoenix that soared into the sky, looking extremely lifelike. He took out a piece of paper and handed it over to nanny Sun, then drew a rich peony on top of a piece of paper.


    An hour later, Yun Ruoleng stopped writing, using his sleeves to wipe the sweat on his forehead: "This subject can''t think of anything else for now, I don''t know if I like these, if not, this subject will continue drawing when I get back."


    "So many ¡­" In an hour, she had drawn seven small paintings, each of them extremely lifelike. What surprised the empress dowager even more was that every single one of them seemed to be suitable for her, and she was so happy that she couldn''t stop smiling. "Reward! "I''ll reward you in layers."


    "Thank you for the gift, Esteemed Empress Dowager." Yun Ruoleng did not delay either, smiling as he knelt down to receive the order.


    "What reward do you want?" The empress dowager thought for a moment. "This Dowager has quite a few treasures in the Palace. Whatever you want, just say it."


    "Of course there are plenty of wealthy subjects'' women." Yun Ruoleng laughed, then said carefully, "This subject only wants to live a peaceful and stable life, I ask that the empress dowager take charge of this subject''s matters."


    "Little girl, are you feeling wronged?" The empress dowager looked at Yun Ruoleng in confusion.


    "Before the death of the third young mistress of the Residence of Yun, this subject''s daughter went to gather herbs for my sister. Before the death of the third young mistress of the Residence of Yun, this subject''s daughter went to gather herbs for my sister.


    "Who is it?" Her Majesty''s face was dark. Assassinating the daughter of an official was a serious crime.


    "It''s elder sister Yun Yueyu." When he said that, the entire audience started clamoring, Yun Ruoleng lowered his head, his entire body trembling, as though he had suffered an extreme grievance.


    "You''re lying!" A figure wearing pink clothes rushed in and knelt beside Yun Ruoleng. "Empress Dowager, don''t listen to her one-sided speech. How could this subject''s daughter let someone kill her own sister?


    "Yun Yueyu, do you want the Regent Hall to come and witness our battle?" Yun Ruoleng suddenly raised his head and stared at her coldly.


    "I ¡­" Yun Yueyu was so frightened by her cold gaze that his whole body was trembling.


    Yes, she didn''t dare.


    She knew that the Regent must be standing on Yun Ruoleng''s side.


    "I thought you were born superior, but I didn''t expect you to be so vicious. Someone, send her out of the palace. In this life, you''re not allowed to step even half a step into the palace!"


    Yun Yueyu''s entire being was in a daze. If she could not enter the imperial palace, wouldn''t that mean that she would never be able to meet the royalty again?


    No, I can''t. Yun Yueyu struggled free from the person who came to capture her: "Empress Dowager, this subject knows her wrongs and doesn''t dare to anymore. Besides, isn''t Yun Ruoleng alright?"


    "If something happens, do you think your punishment is only this?" nanny Sun suppressed her unrestrainedly. Yun Yueyu was just a young miss, although she was a witch, her talent was not bad, and in the eyes of the imperial family, her status was not bad either.


    Furthermore, the empress dowager didn''t like Yun Yueyu in the first place, so she definitely wouldn''t place him in her eyes.


    The empress dowager''s gaze fell upon Yun Ruoleng''s body, and after a long while, she nodded her head. "Are you satisfied with this punishment?"


    "This subject can''t thank enough for the grace of the empress dowager." Yun Ruoleng kowtowed to thank the empress dowager obediently.


    Everyone present were smart, so they naturally understood what Yun Ruoleng was doing. The empress dowager liked it more that she didn''t covet fame and fortune.


    After Yun Ruoleng bade farewell to the empress dowager, they walked out of the peaceful palace. Wan Rong and An Xiang heaved a sigh of relief, and after An Xiang pulled Yun Ruoleng along to size him up, he asked doubtfully, "Miss, did the empress dowager make things difficult for you?"

 C134

    Yun Ruoleng shook his head and gave her a big smile. "I wasn''t bullied, but Yun Yueyu was bullied, and the moment he entered the palace, he was chased out by the empress dowager. He will never enter the palace again in his life."


    More importantly, under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for them to marry any more powerful and influential people from the imperial clan.


    "Huh?" An Xiang could not believe his ears. How could Yun Yueyu please others and end up like this?


    "When your young miss made her move, and when she turned around?" Yun Ruoleng let out a light snort, and his face turned slightly cold.


    This time, Yun Yueyu was afraid that he would not even be able to marry into a better family. After all, who would dare to marry such a vicious woman like her?


    He wasn''t afraid that she would kill him one night.


    Yun Ruoleng was naturally happy in his heart. After all, if Yun Yueyu wanted to run out of her courtyard, he had to know the punishment he should receive. This time, First Madam would probably be in too much of a rush!


    It had to be said that Yun Ruoleng had a very deep understanding of the First Madam. Originally, he wanted to make use of this Mid-Autumn Banquet to let Yun Shicheng go, but Yun Shicheng let go, and Yun Ruoleng didn''t say anything.


    But he didn''t expect that slut to directly tell the empress dowager and let so many people know of this matter. How would her daughter live in the future?! First Madam would hate Yun Ruoleng to death!


    It was a pity that Yun Ruoleng was still alive and well at this time, and had even went to find the little emperor to play.


    "I heard that your first wife was chased out of the palace by your grandmother. Are you proud of yourself?" The little emperor chased away the ministers who were surrounding him trying to please him. He ran over to the imperial garden and waited for Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng raised her brows, "That''s only natural, but all of this was within this subject''s woman''s expectations. Who told First Madam to be disobedient?"


    "Serves you right!" The little shota put on a straight face and said in all seriousness, "I also heard that you''ve displayed your skills in the Palace of Tzu Ning. I''m guessing that you''re going to become famous again."


    Yun Ruoleng lowered his head and sniffed at the little shota''s body, causing the little shota to reflexively avoid him. "Hey! What are you doing? "


    "I smell a strong sense of jealousy and envy. I don''t know which family''s jealousy has overturned." Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose, his eyes looking at the little emperor''s red face with a smile that was not really a smile. "Your majesty, why are you blushing?"


    "Wh-who''s blushing?" The little emperor coldly snorted and turned his face away. He was clearly sulking, but that little gaze would glance at her from time to time, making him look really adorable.


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but rub the top of his head, "Your Majesty, the empress dowager''s favorite is definitely you. It''s getting late, it''s time for the emperor to take his seat. "


    Other than the imperial grandfather, the imperial grandmother, and the seven royal uncle s, no one else dared to touch the little emperor''s head.


    The little emperor''s little face twitched uneasily. Wan Rong and An Xiang, who were watching on the side, trembled in fear.


    "Your Majesty ¡­"


    "Your majesty!" Not far from the pavilion, a group of people hurried over. As they ran, they said, "The Regent wants you to be present! You don''t have to hide. "


    The little emperor unhappily frowned, and looked at the smiling Yun Ruoleng with a straight face, "Accompany me!"


    "Not convenient." Yun Ruoleng waved her hand, she did not want others to know that she had a good relationship with the Emperor, otherwise, there would be trouble.


    The little emperor''s head was drooping and his shoulders were shaking. It seemed that he would cry in the next second. Little De looked worriedly at his young master. "Your majesty, are you alright?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyebrows creased together, "Your majesty should know that you are the Son of Heaven, and your subject is not a concubine. If your subject and daughter travel together, the status of the emperor will be taken down, how can you establish your authority in the imperial court?"


    The little emperor pouted. Although she was dissatisfied with Yun Ruoleng''s words, she had no choice but to admit that she was right. With a stern face, she said: "Then you must compensate us."


    "What do you want?" Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, this little fox was probably trying to trick him again!


    As expected, the corners of the little emperor''s mouth curled into a smile and he hooked his index finger at Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng listened attentively, and after not knowing what the little emperor had said, Yun Ruoleng''s expression changed again and again.


    An Xiang was afraid that the Little Emperor would make trouble for him, so he quickly pulled on Yun Ruoleng''s sleeves.


    Yun Ruoleng looked deeply at the little emperor, then turned and said to An Xiang: "Let''s go!"


    "Yes." An Xiang curiously looked at the little emperor. Something that could cause Yun Ruoleng''s expression to change was not a small matter, you could see how difficult the emperor''s request was.


    "Let''s go as well!" The little emperor faintly smiled at Yun Ruoleng''s back, then quickly put on a stern face and walked in the opposite direction from Yun Ruoleng.


    An Xiang followed Yun Ruoleng with a lot of suspicions in his heart. He didn''t understand what the hell they had said, but looking at Yun Ruoleng''s carefree and relaxed appearance, it was likely that the Emperor did not make things difficult for her.


    The two of them walked for a while, but when they went around the fake mountain, An Xiang suddenly stopped.


    "Wang... Why is the prince here? " An Xiang''s gaze fell upon a couple that were conversing not too far away, and muttered to himself.


    The voice was not loud, and happened to be heard by Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng subconsciously looked in that direction, and this time he saw that his heart was broken. The man wore a dark purple coiling dragon robe, and on his body was an exquisite piece of white jade.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze slowly moved up, and finally landed on that charming face of his, only to discover that there was a light smile on it, and that he was lowering his head and saying something to the girl. The girl had his back facing him, and although he couldn''t see her appearance, he could tell that she was a woman with a slim figure.


    Just then, the lady suddenly jumped into Jun Qingshang''s embrace.


    Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly moved, he chuckled and patted her shoulder, as though he was a couple flirting.


    Yun Ruoleng looked away and took a deep breath. He felt as if his heart was being torn apart, he endured the discomfort of his body and said coldly: "Let''s go!"


    "Miss ¡­" An Xiang looked at Jun Qingshang who was looking at her, and just as she opened her mouth, she realized Yun Ruoleng had already walked a few steps forward, and could only sigh as she silently followed.


    Yun Ruoleng had only walked a few steps when he heard someone call out to her. Yun Ruoleng turned his head in displeasure, and was immediately stunned: "Miss, you called me?"


    "Seventh Miss has displayed such amazing talent at the empress dowager''s place. I really want to become friends with you." The woman''s red clothes were particularly dazzling, and her oval face, combined with a pair of round clear eyes, made her look extremely adorable.


    This girl also had a cheerful personality, "My name is Yang Zi Zi, I am thirteen this year. My father is the Great Sima Yang Zheng Gang, do you want to make friends with him?"


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched, "Since Miss Yang is so straightforward, then this friend must be made."

 C135

    "Great!" Yang Zi laughed heartily and took out a silver bell from her body, "This is for you, consider it as our Golden Righteous Bestowal."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng was completely speechless, how could they make friends like this.


    If her father found out about this, who knows if he would beat her to death.


    An Xiang laughed and helped Yun Ruoleng to receive the bell, then chuckled and said: "I''ve heard that Miss Yang''s mind was pure and innocent, and always straightforward in her work, but now it seems that it''s true. Even this servant is envious of Miss Yang."


    "Elder sister, this girl really knows how to talk." Yang Zi Zi blinked at An Xiang, exposing two of her little canines.


    The more Yun Ruoleng saw, the more he liked it, and he casually pulled out a handkerchief from his sleeves: "Although it''s not worth much, it''s elder sister''s kind intentions, take it, in a few days I''ll get someone to send you a good painting."


    "Tsk tsk, that''s not good!" "This is a rare soft smoke, and it''s even embroidered by the brocade workshop." With a heart full of joy, Yang Zi stuffed the handkerchief into her bosom, afraid that others would snatch it away.


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head helplessly. Seeing that the girl was so candid, he guessed that it had to do with the environment she was in. It was said that the Great Sima Yang Zheng Gang''s three men and one woman had married a lady in their lives.


    Yun Ruoleng''s attention was diverted by Yang Zi Zi, and did not notice the change in Jun Qingshang''s expression from where he stood. Even though he had been chatting with the woman the entire time, his gaze had never left her body.


    Yun Ruoleng and Yang Zi Zi Ling were walking side by side, the two of them were talking and laughing, but Jun Qingshang only felt a chill in his heart, this woman, could it be that she didn''t see him?


    "Cousin, what are you looking at?" The lady looked at Jun Qingshang''s changing expression lovingly and turned her head to look at him. She just so happened to see Yun Ruoleng''s impeccable appearance and a look of jealousy flashed across her eyes.


    Jun Qingshang withdrew his gaze from Yun Ruoleng, did not say a word, and walked towards Yun Ruoleng''s direction.


    The woman pouted her lips in displeasure and chased after him. "Cousin, wait for Rou-Er."


    Jun Qingshang frowned, he slowed down his pace without making any noise.


    Xiahou Jin Rou laughed proudly as she followed Jun Qingshang to Yun Ruoleng''s side. When the few of them saw this person, they were a little shocked, especially Yang Zi Zi. She looked at Jun Qingshang with her chin almost dropping out of shock: "Wang ¡­. "My lord."


    "Your subject greets Your Highness." Yun Ruoleng bowed, his gaze sweeping across the girl beside Jun Qingshang slightly, and laughed: "My respects to you, miss."


    "What''s your name?" Xiahou Jin Rou couldn''t help but want to tear her apart when she saw her face. After all, there were many women who didn''t like others to be prettier than them, let alone in front of the people they liked.


    Yun Ruoleng straightened his body, and after his gaze swept across Xiahou Jin''s gentle face, he softly said. "This subject''s name is not worthy of mention."


    "You ¡­"


    "Sister Yun, this is the precious daughter of the patriarch of the Xiahou Family, Xiahou Jin Rou." Yang Zi Ling recovered from the shock and looked at the proud and arrogant woman in front of her. She said, "The one that is passed around in the streets and alleys."


    "Which one?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, looking at her looks, it could be considered good, and the clothes she wore was not bad either.


    Sure enough, Yang Zi Zi carefully looked at the Regent, coughed, and said, "She is the Regent''s childhood sweetheart, and even if your Yun Family''s woman is the main wife, she will still be the equal wife."


    Yun Ruoleng tilted his head and sized up Yang Zi Zi, but the corner of his eye could see Jun Qingshang''s expression. Looking at his expressionless face, Yun Ruoleng felt a sharp pain in her heart.


    Yun Ruoleng suppressed the discomfort in his heart and swept his eyes across Xiahou Jin Rou with a mocking gaze. "So that''s how it is. No wonder you were so arrogant the moment you arrived. Your highness was supporting you!"


    Xiahou Jin was so angry that his face flushed red, but he was afraid that Jun Qingshang would be unhappy so he quickly apologized to Yun Ruoleng, "I have been spoiled too much by my father since I was young, so I was too impatient and didn''t have any other intentions ¡­ Little sister, please don''t be offended. "


    "You are too kind." Yun Ruoleng half covered his face with his hands, his movements casual but not lacking in manners, "I have always been straightforward, to the point where I made it difficult for you, you can''t blame me for that."


    Yun Ruoleng loved to kill white lotuses the most, because this gave others a kind of unprecedented pleasure.


    Jun Qingshang stood in his original spot without saying a word. Although his gaze was fixed on Xiahou Jin, no one knew that he had actually been paying attention to Yun Ruoleng. However, Yun Ruoleng''s gaze, after looking at him for a moment, no longer glanced at him.


    Jun Qingshang withdrew his gaze, avoided them, and left.


    Seeing that Jun Qingshang had left, Xiahou Jin Rou dug a hole for him and quickly chased after him.


    Yun Ruoleng coldly snorted as he beckoned to Yang Zi Ling: "It''s getting late, let''s go to the banquet!"


    Yang Zi scratched her head, "Big Sister Yun, you said that the Regent came to our front, what does it mean to not say anything?"


    Yun Ruoleng shrugged his shoulders. God knows what he meant, he was probably showing off in front of him!


    Yun Ruoleng felt her heart ache. For a moment, she felt that her choice was not wrong.


    Yun Ruoleng had not even taken two steps when he heard the sound of clanging weapons. He and Yang Zi looked at each other, and quickly chased after the source of the sound. In the fake mountain next to the bamboo forest, a group of black-clothed people were holding curved blades in their hands as they attacked a purple-clothed man.


    Only then did he realise that these black-clothed men were not ordinary black-clothed men, but Dark Mages. Their bodies were all releasing a light black mist, but the mist was not as thick as the one that Yun Ruoleng saw last time.


    Yang Zi Ling pulled Yun Ruoleng a step back, and said in a small voice: "We can''t beat this group, let''s go call some people first!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze swept across the area before landing on a woman who was curled up in a corner of the fake mountain. He frowned unhappily: "I''ll protect you.


    "But ¡­"


    "Save him is more important!" Yun Ruoleng didn''t want to owe Jun Qingshang a favor. A piece of white silk flew out, and directly knocked away the two people who were preparing to sneak attack Jun Qingshang from the back.


    Because it was too sudden, after Jun Qingshang dodged the attack, he looked in her direction. The white silk on Yun Ruoleng''s hand fluttered, and he pulled on Xiahou Jin Rou''s arm.


    "Ah ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng did not hold any mercy for her, and immediately flew over to join the battle.


    An Xiang swept a glance at the small, twisted face of Xiahou Jin Rou and said with a cold smile, "Miss Xiahou, if you still refuse to leave. This servant will not guarantee your safety. "

 C136

    "You ¡­"


    "Sigh!" You don''t want to die, so hurry up and come with me. " Yang Zi was the daughter of the Great Sima. In a general''s house, she naturally still had some skill, but amongst these people, she could only be considered a novice. To a girl like Xiahou Jin Rou, it was easy for her to pull her away.


    The white silk in Yun Ruoleng''s hands was like a nimble snake, suppressing the black-clothed man''s hand deeply. Because there were no outsiders present, Yun Ruoleng did not try to hide his strength. The white silk on his hands was filled with dense pure magic power.


    Yun Ruoleng had taken care of seven or eight Dark Magi by himself, and Jun Qingshang was not weak either. Although he did not have any Innate Qi, he had an extremely strong inner force.


    Yun Ruoleng withdrew the white silk, and coldly swept his gaze across the corpse on the ground. "An Xiang, let''s go."


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang responded, but then his gaze landed on Jun Qingshang, who was standing behind him and wanted to say something.


    "You ¡­" Jun Qingshang hesitated for a few seconds, then grabbed Yun Ruoleng''s wrist and walked in front of her to block her path, "Why are you helping this king?"


    "His Highness saved me, I am only repaying Your Highness''s kindness." Yun Ruoleng mercilessly pulled back his hand, circled around him and prepared to leave.


    Jun Qingshang took a step to the side, and once again blocked her: "You''re lying!"


    "I ¡­"


    "Over there! "Quick, quick, quick ¡­" Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to open his mouth, he heard Yang Zi Zi''s anxious voice coming from behind the fake mountain. Yun Ruoleng frowned and circled around Jun Qingshang, wanting to leave.


    "Sister Yun ¡­" Yang Zi looked at the corpses on the ground in shock, the words that came out of her mouth stuck in her throat.


    "Prince, are you alright?" An Ying mercilessly squeezed away Yun Ruoleng, and after looking at him once, he heaved a sigh of relief.


    The guards anxiously cleaned up the mess on the ground, causing Yun Ruoleng to take advantage of the chaos to leave the scene. Other than the person in question, no one else noticed Yun Ruoleng''s existence.


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze swept across the scene once, and realised that the person he was looking for had already left, his gaze slowly turned cold, and landed on An Ying''s body. An Ying felt his hair stand on end.


    Because Yun Ruoleng had used his Shaman Energy, his entire body was exhausted. He leaned slightly on Yang Zi Zi''s body, and his expression did not look very good.


    "Sister Yun, are you hurt?" Yang Zi Zi looked at her pale face and looked at her worriedly.


    Yun Ruoleng lightly shook his head, and his gaze landed on the pavilion not far away. "It''s been a long time since I last moved, perhaps I''m a little tired!"


    "There''s a pavilion in front of us, we ¡­"


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, Yang Zi Zi immediately became anxious: "Big Sister Yun, are you alright? An Xiang! An Xiang... "


    Seeing this, An Xiang was also startled. He extended his hand to grab Yun Ruoleng''s pulse and immediately calmed him down: "I''m fine! Miss just used up too much energy, just help her rest for a bit. "


    Yang Zi and An Xiang supported Yun Ruoleng into the pavilion together for an hour. Seeing that her complexion had improved a lot, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief.


    "Let''s go to the banquet!" Yun Ruoleng sat in the pavilion and continuously absorbed the spirit energy of the heaven and earth. Because the spirit energy in his body had dried up, he vomited blood, and after an hour of resting, his body had become much better. Yun Ruoleng withdrew from the resting state, and his gaze landed on Yang Zi Ling''s body.


    Yang Zi nodded and reached out to support her, but was rejected with a smile: "How am I that weak? I''m much better now. Do you believe me when I say that?"


    Yang Zi Zi didn''t insist, because she discovered that Yun Ruoleng was still on guard against her.


    Because of the assassination attempt, the entire banquet was in a state of tension. The Mid-Autumn Festival was a place where both men and women sat, so there were only a few people in the Hall of Peace, discussing this matter.


    Because the real banquet had yet to begin, Yun Ruoleng and the others came a little late, but they did not attract too much attention. Not long after Yun Ruoleng entered the palace, they welcomed the furious look of the First Madam.


    Yun Ruoleng casually swept her and pretended not to see. She sat on her own seat and when Yun Yu saw that she had sat over, she gave her a mocking glance. She cut off the fragrant tea on the table and shook her nose: "Seventh Sister sure knows how to come back after showing off!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze merely swept over her body lightly, and did not fuss about it with a child who was a few years old. However, Yun Ruoleng still did not understand Yun Yu''s temper. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was ignoring her, she intentionally tilted the teacup in her hand and let go of it.


    "Aiya!" Yun Yu exclaimed as she stood up from her seat and looked at Yun Ruoleng pitifully. "Seventh Sister, Jiao Er didn''t do it on purpose."


    Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes flashed with a cold light, she never thought that a little girl that was a few years old would actually be so scheming.


    An Xiang, seeing this, angrily pushed Yun Yu away and knelt beside Yun Yu Jiao to wipe off the tea stains on her body, "Miss, are you alright? Is it hot? "


    "I''m fine." Yun Ruoleng''s voice was very faint. She withdrew her gaze from her wet dress and gently said to Yun Yu, who was about to cry, "Since little sister did it unintentionally, there''s no need to blame yourself. It''s just a piece of cloth!"


    Just a moment ago, Yun Yu''s charming voice was quite loud, attracting the attention of everyone in the surroundings. Yun Ruoleng laughed softly, which made many of the ladies praise him endlessly. With their sharp eyes, they looked at the cloth on Yun Ruoleng''s body, and their good impression of him instantly rose.


    Yun Yu bit her lips lightly. After all, she was as small as a person and never would have thought that Yun Ruoleng wasn''t angry at all. With so many people watching her, she instantly became at a loss for what to do, frantically lowering her head and tugging at the corner of her clothes.


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at her indifferently before he left with an emotionless expression. Only then did Yun Yu let out a breath of relief. No one knew that Yun Ruoleng''s gaze had turned cold just now, and his aura had pressured her to the point that she couldn''t breath.


    After Yun Ruoleng left the Xiang He Palace, he did not change his clothes. Instead, he found a quiet place to evaporate the water vapor on his clothes, leaving behind a mark.


    "Miss, why don''t we go change?" An Xiang was very familiar with the palace, so he naturally was able to find a set of clothes.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head, he raised his head and looked at the sun that was about to set: "It''s too late."


    "But ¡­"


    "Who would notice the watermark on my body at night?" Yun Ruoleng understood her worry, it was impolite of him to dirty his clothes in front of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. Only because of time, it was impossible for them to be later than the empress dowager and the others.


    After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, she did not stay any longer and turned around to leave. An Xiang lightly bit her lip, completely hating Yun Yu. She did not expect that the ladies raised in the Minister¡¯s Mansion would all be filled with scheming.

 C137

    Yun Yu watched as Yun Ruoleng returned, still wearing the same clothes. Her eyes lit up, and the corners of her lips unconsciously raised, as though she was very proud of her masterpiece.


    Yun Ruoleng took a good look at her expression, and silently returned to her original position.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng sat down, he heard a sharp and shrill voice coming from the door, and couldn''t help but look towards the door.


    "The empress dowager has arrived!"


    "The emperor has arrived!"


    Within the Hall of Peace, everyone rose to their knees respectfully, their voices loud and clear. "Long live the Emperor! Long live and long live the empress dowager! Long live and long live and long live the empress dowager!"


    "Everyone, please rise." The empress dowager took the little emperor''s hand and led him into the Temple of Peace. The little shota solemnly reached out his hand to support the emperor, then walked up the steps with a stern expression and sat on the Dragon Throne that belonged to the imperial power.


    After Yun Ruoleng finished the ceremony, he sat in his seat. It was surprisingly quiet, as if the woman who painted for the Empress Dowager in Peace Palace wasn''t her at all.


    After what had just happened, Yun Yu Jiao had calmed down. Even though she wanted to scheme against Yun Ruoleng, it was limited to the fact that she wasn''t mature enough and wasn''t a match for Yun Ruoleng.


    "Today''s Mid-Autumn Festival, we will drink under the moon with our loved ones. We will not return until we are drunk."


    "I won''t leave until I''m drunk!" Everyone held their wine cups up high and once again made a toast to the people on the platform.


    The little emperor''s face was stern, he raised his head and drank the wine, then sat down, his gaze unwittingly sweeping across Yun Ruoleng who was quietly eating the food on his plate.


    "The Regent has arrived!" Yun Ruoleng''s gaze once again moved away from his desk. A different emotion flashed in her phoenix eyes, but it instantly disappeared.


    Jun Qingshang appeared in the Peace Hall dressed in a black python robe, his clearly defined face still expressionless.


    As the crowd bowed once again, Yun Ruoleng followed suit and kneeled down, "Your Highness, a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years."


    "Yes." His gaze swept across the crowd, pausing on Yun Ruoleng for a moment before quickly shifting his gaze away, and uttering a single syllable.


    After Yun Ruoleng got up, she continued to eat her food. The hall was lively, yet Yun Ruoleng was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery. She could only hope that everything would end soon so that she could go back to sleep.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was eating happily, he suddenly felt an extremely strong killing intent, and subconsciously stopped. Her cold gaze swept across the crowd of dancers. She could feel that this killing intent came from the dancers.


    The dancing girl brandished the red silk in her hand and it continuously swirled in the hall. It looked like this song "Chang''e Dashing the Moon" was completely unintentional, but Yun Ruoleng could feel the killing intent growing stronger and stronger.


    "Swoosh ¡­" As she watched the dancers, an arrow flew from the outside of the hall, aimed at the little Emperor.


    Jun Qingshang''s reaction was extremely fast, the wine cup in his hand was immediately flung out, and the arrow shot out unerringly, landing on the ground.


    Immediately after, a group of masked men with black mist emitting from their bodies poured in through the door, while the female dancers that were leading the group of dancers that Yun Ruoleng was staring at also started to move, the red ribbon in their hands flew, directly shooting towards Jun Qingshang.


    The wine cup in Yun Ruoleng''s hand was thrown out, accurately hitting the lady''s back, and with a "Bang" sound, the lady laid on the ground, her mouth spitting out a mouthful of blood.


    "Protect Your Majesty! Protect Her Majesty! "


    It was not only Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng who had the time, there were also many martial generals in the hall. Because of the sudden incident, the hall was already in a mess, the Great Sima Yang Zheng and Jun Qingshang were in the second world war side by side, blocking the attacks of the large group of black-clothed men.


    An Xiang stayed by Yun Ruoleng''s side without moving an inch away from her. Because Yun Ruoleng''s spirit energy had not completely recovered, she had to protect her safety right now.


    The group of black-clothed men spoke in a strange manner, all of their attacks were not aimed at the Emperor, but the majority of them were aimed at Jun Qingshang, so it was very obvious that their goal was Jun Qingshang.


    After Yun Ruoleng smashed the plates of the black clothed men several times, he used a strange pace to approach the center of the black clothed men''s power. He pulled Jun Qingshang away without hesitation.


    Why run? Yun Ruoleng could tell that this group of people were here for Jun Qingshang. If he left, then he would be able to attract more black-clothed men to leave. Just as Yun Ruoleng had thought, the two of them disappeared from the great hall at the fastest speed possible. The black clothed man also left with them, then used an endless number of methods to chase after them.


    "Did you dig the graves of their ancestors!?" Yun Ruoleng coldly swept a glance at the black clothed man who was chasing after him, and coldly complained. "I didn''t expect that you would be even more troublesome than me."


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s gaze never left her as she pulled at her white jade hands. She was in an indescribably good mood.


    By the side of a pond, Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang met in a pincer attack. Yun Ruoleng''s impeccable face was covered in frost and she just wanted to say a low curse.


    "Over there, over there!"


    Yun Ruoleng secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She could tell that it was An Ying''s voice, thinking that this An Ying Guard Captain came in time, if not for him, the two of them would really be in this group of Dark Mages'' hands.


    There were simply too many people in this group of dark Magi.


    The sound of weapons fighting and low roars of pain resonated and fused with the flowing water of the pond. The Dark Witch and An Ying were in a state of complete separation as Jun Qingshang held his "Scarlet Dragon Sword" with a sword flower in his hand and held onto Yun Ruoleng''s hand tightly.


    Using the white silk with one hand was rather strenuous for Yun Ruoleng. Because there were a lot of people here, and it was not easy for her to use magic power, it made it harder and harder for her to fight. In the end, it was Jun Qingshang who protected her.


    After an hour of fighting, most of the dark Magi were injured and some of them even died.


    The sun had already set, although he could not see clearly, in the current situation, Yun Ruoleng could smell the blood stench everywhere.


    "Your Highness, your subordinate came late to save you ¡­"


    "Be careful!" Yun Ruoleng''s body instinctively moved faster than his words, spinning to lean on Jun Qingshang''s back and forcefully knocking him away.


    Since she didn''t mind, Jun Qingshang was knocked two steps back. When he turned his head, he saw an arrow piercing through Yun Ruoleng''s chest.


    "Puchi ¡­"


    "Ruo Er!" Jun Qingshang exclaimed, he extended his hand to catch the crumbling Yun Ruoleng, "Ruo Er! Wake up! "


    "Cough, cough ¡­" Yun Ruoleng coughed a few times, a blood stench came from his throat, causing him to turn his head to cough out the blood.


    Jun Qingshang started to panic. He turned around and roared at the dumbstruck An Ying, "Inherit the imperial physician!"


    "Jun... Jun Qingshang, don''t worry ¡­ I, I''m fine. " Yun Ruoleng only felt that her eyelids were growing heavier and heavier. Because she possessed the power of the Inherent Skill, she could see the man''s expression in front of her with the help of the weak moonlight.


    Seeing his pained expression, Yun Ruoleng laughed: "I, I''ve actually been ¡­ forever ¡­ I always thought I didn''t, didn''t like you, but ¡­ Cough cough cough ¡­ But just now, I realized that I might not just like you anymore. "

 C138

    Jun Qingshang was stunned after hearing these words. He didn''t know how to react until Yun Ruoleng''s cold hands touched his face. He finally woke up with a start.


    But before he could speak, Yun Ruoleng''s hand powerlessly fell from his face to the ground.


    The originally beautiful phoenix eyes gently closed.


    Jun Qingshang''s pleasantly surprised face froze, he reached out and gently patted her small face: "Ruo Er? Ruo Er, wake up! You can''t sleep! "


    "Yun Ruoleng! If you don''t wake up, This King will never forgive you! " Jun Qingshang''s voice trembled a little. After calling out to her several times, she still did not react, afraid that she would leave him just like that.


    However, Jun Qingshang''s threat was useless. Yun Ruoleng laid quietly in his arms, showing no signs of waking up.


    Jun Qingshang carefully probed her breathing and discovered that although her breathing was faint, there was still air. This proved that she had only fainted.


    "Prince, the ground is cold. Miss is injured, stay on the ground ¡­"


    "Scram!" Jun Qingshang let out a furious roar as his black eyes instantly turned scarlet, as though he was an Asura from the depths of hell, as they coldly swept towards the An Ying who just spoke.


    An Ying''s entire body shivered, and he did not dare to say half a word more.


    "Who is provoking our Lord Regent?" A teasing voice came from behind An Ying and the others. Everyone heard the voice and felt like they had seen their savior, they immediately split into two rows to give him a path.


    Jun Qingshang lifted her head and coldly swept him a glance. "If anything happens to her, don''t live anymore!"


    "Sigh!" "You ¡­"


    "Young master Qian Mo, let''s cut the crap." An Ying saw that his master''s expression was growing more and more unsightly, and immediately reminded him.


    Qian Qian crouched in front of Jun Qingshang with a heavy medicine chest, and when she saw how looked even if he died hugging her, the corner of her mouth couldn''t help but twitch, "I say, Prince, you''re asking me to save her, yet you''re hugging her so tightly? How am I supposed to save her?"


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, his gaze growing colder and colder. He did not forget the place where Yun Ruoleng was injured, the place where he was... Jun Qingshang glared at him, and quickly carried Yun Ruoleng and left.


    "Sigh ¡­" "You ¡­"


    "Follow me!" Jun Qingshang walked a few steps forward, leaving behind a sentence before he continued walking forward.


    Qian Mo glared at him, rubbed her nose, and quickly followed.


    Jun Qingshang carried Yun Ruoleng into the closest palace. Because the imperial harem did not have a imperial concubine, when Jun Qingshang entered, the servants were shocked.


    "Get hot water, wet cloth." Jun Qingshang kicked open the door of the side palace and ordered the palace maids behind him.


    Jun Qingshang gently placed Yun Ruoleng on the bed, because the arrow had pierced through his heart, causing him to not dare to level her, but rather, he held her right shoulder that was not injured against his chest, extended his hand, and quickly sealed the points of the injuries on her body. Then, he used his blade to cut the arrow, and forcefully pulled it out from Yun Ruoleng''s body.


    "Hiss ¡­" Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath, and groaned from his mouth.


    Just then, a palace maid walked in with hot water, followed by An Xiang and a group of imperial doctors.


    Jun Qingshang waved him away, leaving only An Xiang to help in the house, but from the beginning till the end, Jun Qingshang did not have any intention of letting go.


    An Xiang was also very helpless, after helping Yun Ruoleng bandage his wounds, he left.


    Jun Qingshang looked at the person in his arms, his eyes filled with gentleness.


    While Jun Qingshang was lost in thought, a man in white clothes appeared in the great hall. The man was none other than the Feng Dong Yun Ruoleng had seen in Mo Zhan''s room that day.


    "Tsk!" The Heaven''s Enlightenment, the great Regent, has actually fallen in love with someone! "


    Jun Qingshang seemed to be in a good mood, seeing that he did not coax her away, but instead calmly glanced at him: "Why are you still here?"


    "Jun Qingshang, are you in such a hurry to let me go?" The white clothed man suddenly appeared in front of Jun Qingshang, staring at the person in her embrace with his bright eyes, a surprised look flashed past his eyes, "She ¡­"


    "Scram!" Jun Qingshang kicked the white clothed man''s leg, his eyes were extremely cold. "Phoenix Diagram! If you dare to spout nonsense, this king will definitely take your life! "


    Huang Tu rubbed his nose, thinking about how this woman would make trouble for him the moment he saw her that day, and he looked deeply into Jun Qingshang''s eyes.


    Just now, he had sensed a stream of pure power from her body, which was an extremely pure power that he had never seen before. Huang Tu''s gaze fell on Yun Ruoleng''s rosy red face, a look of determination flashing past his eyes.


    This was the person he wanted.


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze grew colder and colder, and the surrounding air seemed to have instantly become frozen. Huang Tu retracted his gaze and laughed embarrassedly: "Alright, I won''t leave yet!"


    "Humph!" Jun Qingshang saw that the people had left and retracted the cold aura around her. Coincidentally, Yun Ruoleng had woken up at this time, because her injuries were too severe, and her eyebrows were furrowed uncomfortably.


    Jun Qingshang looked down and saw that her beautiful face had a hint of pain, his heart aching. "You''re awake?"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng cupped her hands in his embrace and found a comfortable position to lean on. "Hungry."


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s belly full of words were stuck in Yun Ruoleng''s throat, and in the end, could only turn into an extremely helpless sigh. "An Xiang, pass on the knowledge to the imperial physician."


    Yun Ruoleng curled her lips in his embrace. "I''m fine, I''m just hungry."


    He still hadn''t eaten since noon, and with the constant use of Shaman Energy tonight, it would be strange if he wasn''t hungry now that the moon was hanging in the sky. However, this man didn''t seem to be in a hurry to give her food. He didn''t reply with a straight face.


    Yun Ruoleng could only droop his head and look at the royal doctors who came in with their medicine chests, feeling intoxicated in his heart.


    Imperial Physician took her pulse, then looked at Yun Ruoleng in shock: "Miss''s injuries have already mostly recovered ¡­"


    "What''s so strange about me using inner force to treat her wounds!" Jun Qingshang''s eyes flashed slightly, his cold face interrupting the imperial physician''s speech, making the latter feel extremely awkward.


    Knowing that Jun Qingshang was covering for him, Yun Ruoleng bit on the corner of his mouth and asked: "Do I need to pay attention to a lot of things?"


    The moment Yun Ruoleng opened his mouth, the awkwardness in the room was resolved, the imperial physician nodded his head and began to pay attention to what Yun Ruoleng was saying.


    The imperial physician nagged for around two incense sticks worth of time, making Yun Ruoleng feel like he was about to faint from hunger. Only then did Jun Qingshang let him go, and let An Xiang eat everything he had.


    "Jun ¡­ thank you." After Yun Ruoleng swallowed the last mouthful of the porridge, he licked his lips in satisfaction.


    Her mischievous look made Jun Qingshang chuckle: "Thank me for what?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes slightly turned, and she sat cross-legged across him. Her furry little head was slightly lowered. "I think I don''t like you ¡­"

 C139

    Jun Qingshang''s expression instantly froze, and slowly turned black, before slowly transforming into an azure color bit by bit.


    The surrounding air became colder and colder. Yun Ruoleng raised her head and suddenly threw herself into his embrace, hugging onto his neck and burying her head into his neck and cupping it: "She has fallen in love with you."


    Jun Qingshang''s fury was suppressed within his heart. Not one bit more, but a finger with distinct joints was holding onto the collar of the back of Yun Ruoleng''s neck.


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng lay dead on his neck, unwilling to leave, afraid that if he were to let go of Jun Qingshang now, he would leave with a flick of his sleeves, "I know you''re still angry at me, but the situation at that time was really ¡­ "In short, I didn''t understand my own heart back then, but now ¡­"


    "Yun Ruoleng! Do you think This King is someone that you can just summon and go as you please? " It was good that he did not mention the past, but when he mentioned the past, Jun Qingshang''s face became even uglier, and his voice became colder and colder.


    "I was wrong, I really was wrong. Please forgive me, okay? I ¡­" I can''t do without you. " Yun Ruoleng''s voice became more and more choked with sobs, and behind her, a sparkling teardrop fell onto Jun Qingshang''s neck.


    Jun Qingshang''s body trembled, and stiffened on the spot in astonishment.


    She ¡­ she cried?


    Yun Ruoleng cried for an unknown amount of time as he hugged Jun Qingshang, and as if he was tired, his arms loosened bit by bit. Then, he withdrew from''s embrace, lowered his head, and used his sleeves to dry his tears, as he gave a bitter laugh, and did not speak anymore.


    Jun Qingshang helplessly shook his head, his sharp fingers grabbing onto her lower jaw as he lifted her head. His other hand carefully wiped away the tears on her face: "So ugly."


    Yun Ruoleng''s lips slightly pursed, her misty phoenix eyes watching his actions. She couldn''t help but let her sparkling and translucent tears drop down like pearls with a broken string.


    Jun Qingshang had always been high, cold, and proud, and had never consoled a girl before. In addition to his strong personality, he had never cried in front of her before.


    "Don''t cry." Jun Qingshang raised his hands slightly and helped wipe the tears at the corner of his eyes.


    An Ying and An Xiang who were standing guard outside heard the commotion and looked at each other. An Ying was curious about what the Duke had done to make the heavily injured Miss Yun cry so hard?


    An Xiang pulled An Ying further away from the door. She was really afraid that the Seventh Miss would kill her the very next morning if they found out that she was crying.


    After crying for an unknown amount of time, Yun Ruoleng was finally tired, and stopped crying. Jun Qingshang then heaved a sigh of relief, and pulled her into his embrace: "Forget it, who told you to be so delicate!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed a look of satisfaction, and sobbed.


    Jun Qingshang helplessly pressed her into his embrace, "In the future, you are not allowed to speak any more words that hurt this king''s heart!"


    "Jun Qingshang, you are too tyrannical!" Yun Ruoleng pursed her lips and laughed, as she pouted.


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, and couldn''t help but laugh when he saw her beautiful face.


    Yun Ruoleng wrapped his arms around Jun Qingshang''s neck, and raised his head to lightly bite on''s lower jaw. After he succeeded, he quickly narrowed his eyes and yawned: "I''m tired."


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang felt like he had been electrocuted. He lowered his head, wanting to catch the culprit, but found that she was hugging him and had fallen into a deep sleep. Jun Qingshang was a little angry, but he couldn''t really do anything to her.


    Therefore, after a few hours of recuperation, Yun Ruoleng was almost completely fine. Jun Qingshang naturally knew about this matter, in order to not bring about any unnecessary trouble, Jun Qingshang declared to the outside that he had used his internal energy to help her recover.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng woke up with some pain in his chest. This time, his internal organs had been injured, and it would probably take two or three days for him to completely recover. Yun Ruoleng touched the spot beside him and discovered that there was no one around him. He got up and sat down on the bed in disappointment.


    An Xiang pushed the door and entered, looking at the dazed Yun Ruoleng sitting on the bed, unable to hold back his laughter.


    Yun Ruoleng coldly swept his gaze over her without saying a word. An Xiang walked to her side and sat down. She looked at her with her watery eyes and smiled.


    Yun Ruoleng immediately threw a pillow at her. "You talk too much!"


    "Miss, you have written this all over your face! This servant will also help you relieve your worries. How could it be this servant''s fault? " An Xiang took the soft pillow and smilingly blinked his eyes, looking even more adorable.


    When Yun Ruoleng found out where Jun Qingshang had gone to, his mood became a lot better. He even ignored An Xiang''s teasing and got up from the bed, grabbing his clothes and preparing to put them on.


    An Xiang immediately pulled her back: "My good young miss, you are currently an injured patient. If you go out at this time, what will others think?"


    Yun Ruoleng wanted to say that he was healed already, but after thinking about it, if he recovered so quickly, if he left, people would definitely suspect him. After all, the arrow last night had pierced through his shoulder blade.


    After sweeping around the place he lived at, Yun Ruoleng could not help but frown: "But I''m still in the palace!"


    "Before leaving, Prince said he wanted you to wait for his return. He said he had a surprise for you." An Xiang supported his head as he smiled.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, she quickly sat on the bed and waved at An Xiang: "Go and busy yourself!"


    An Xiang looked at Yun Ruoleng in disbelief, and the person who instantly laid obediently on the bed, was actually the Seventh Miss from the Yun Family that she knew, the Yun Ruoleng who took every step carefully, and didn''t cause any problems?


    An Xiang''s belly full of suspicions finally choked back under Yun Ruoleng''s furious gaze, and he turned back three times in a single step to leave the side hall.


    Inside the imperial study, Jun Qingshang and the little emperor sat facing each other.


    The uncle and nephew pair stared at each other for a good while before Jun Rushi spoke with a bitter face: "royal uncle, if you marry the Yun Family''s Seventh Miss, I will agree to it no matter what, but as for the imperial grandmother, it''s hard to say!"


    "You don''t have confidence?" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows. He didn''t think that this brat was really a child, that he had absolute confidence in convincing the empress dowager about this matter.


    "royal uncle ¡­"


    "I can go out for a few days."


    Jun Qingshang threw the bait, how could Jun Rushi not take the bait? Furthermore, this was exactly what the little emperor had been waiting for, so the little emperor who had been troubled for a while now quickly scrawled a few lines of words on the bright yellow imperial decree, then folded it and gave it to Jun Qingshang personally: "royal uncle, do you think this will work?"


    "Not bad." After Jun Qingshang obtained the answer he wanted, he stuffed the imperial edict back into his sleeves, stood up and patted the non-existent creases on his body before leaving.


    The little emperor was stunned. If his emperor took it and left without any indication, then was what he said just now still counted?

 C140

    The little emperor frowned, then relaxed. Since royal uncle had said it out loud, he would naturally not go back on his words.


    Even if he went back on his word ¡­ Heh heh.


    Jun Qingshang took the imperial edict and went straight to the Glazed Palace. Yesterday, due to an emergency situation, he saw that Yun Ruoleng had settled down there, so he should leave the palace today.


    Jun Qingshang entered the Liu Li Palace just in time to see An Xiang holding onto An Ying and discussing something. When the two saw Jun Qingshang walking in, they quickly cupped their fists and bowed to him.


    Jun Qingshang suspiciously looked at the two of them, he pushed open the door and entered the side hall. Yun Ruoleng was leaning on the bed and flipping through a book, it seemed very boring and he flipped through it very quickly. Hearing the door open, Yun Ruoleng turned and smiled: "You''re back."


    Jun Qingshang nodded, he walked to her side and sat down, then glanced at the book she was holding: "I''ll bring you back to the Duke Palaces."


    "Huh?" Yun Ruoleng looked at him suspiciously, "Shouldn''t you send me back to the Minister¡¯s Mansion first? After all, he hasn''t returned for an entire night. That greedy father of his is probably scheming again. "


    "Your injuries have yet to recover and you''re still unconscious. It''s not appropriate for you to participate in those dark battles at Minister¡¯s Mansion."


    "Pfft!" Yun Ruoleng immediately laughed, "How can you speak nonsense like that with your eyes opened. "But you''re right, I will be able to rest in peace without your residence."


    Jun Qingshang nodded her head seriously, she leaned downwards, the smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face froze, she quickly covered her chest, and stared at him warily: "What are you doing?"


    Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, his fingers caressing across that beautiful little face: "What do you think?"


    "Jun Qingshang, I''m warning you, if you ¡­ "Ugh ¡­"


    Jun Qingshang had originally only intended to hug the "heavily injured" Yun Ruoleng, but when he leaned over to look at her pink-lipped lips, he really couldn''t help but kiss her. Yun Ruoleng''s eyes were wide opened as he stared at the big handsome face, not knowing how to react.


    Jun Qingshang did not deepen this kiss. Instead, after she lightly tapped on her lips, she arrogantly snorted and stretched her arms out from around her neck and legs. A standard princess carried the dazed Yun Ruoleng up.


    Yun Ruoleng exclaimed, her hands quickly wrapped around Jun Qingshang''s neck, her beautiful phoenix eyes swivelled, "Are we going back now?"


    "Yes." The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly, and his forehead pressed against hers, "Good girl, continue pretending to be sick."


    "Alright!" Yun Ruoleng obediently let go of his hands, and nestled into Jun Qingshang''s embrace with an extremely weak expression.


    Jun Qingshang looked down and thought that it was really funny, this girl really had the talent to act. Yun Ruoleng took a peek at his expression, and raised his eyebrows: I''m already unconscious from my injuries, can you still smile?


    "Cough, cough!" Jun Qingshang coughed lightly, "Sleep."


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng closed his eyes once again, and found a comfortable position to lie down in in.


    An Xiang and An Ying were standing at the entrance. When they saw the two coming out, they followed behind Jun Qingshang on both sides.


    Because everyone knew that the Regent King was not intimate with women, the news of Yun Ruoleng being carried away from the Imperial Palace by the Regent King quickly spread. It was just that the person in question did not even know about it.


    Within the Minister¡¯s Mansion, after Yun Yueyu, who had been punished by the empress dowager for asking the assassin to poison his concubine sister, became worried after hearing about the matter of Yun Ruoleng getting injured by the Regent King, afraid that the Regent would marry Yun Ruoleng. But before she could think of a perfect plan, the news of Yun Ruoleng being carried out of the east gate by the Regent King spread across the entire capital.


    "Mother, what do you think we should do? Once Yun Ruoleng gains power, we will never have a chance to turn the situation around! " Yun Yueyu paced back and forth in First Madam''s room, looking anxious and dissatisfied.


    First Madam was leisurely sipping her tea. Her view on this matter was very simple: "We shall wait and see."


    Yun Yueyu did not have that kind of patience, he slapped the table and said, "Observing the situation? Heh! "Mom, your way of watching the situation is to throw yourself in as well, and almost make dad divorce you, right?"


    "Yu''er, I was under house arrest too." First Madam felt that his spoiled daughter was becoming more and more unsensible, and frowned in displeasure.


    How could Yun Yueyu care about all these? Once she got angry, she would not care about who you were. Upon hearing First Madam say that, her face immediately changed. Mother can''t control the situation any longer, can she? "


    "Yun Yueyu!" First Madam slapped the table, his face ashen. "Is this the attitude of you talking to your mother?"


    "As the legitimate mother, what rights do you have to be my mother if you were given the authority of a concubine?" Yun Yueyu laughed coldly in disdain. The current her did not have the slightest appearance of a young miss, but instead looked like a shrew.


    First Madam was so angry that he spat blood, but Yun Yueyu did not care about all these, and directly flicked his sleeves and left.


    When First Madam thought about Yun Yueyu, who had gradually become cold-blooded, and how he immediately fainted in a fit of rage, the Hibiscus Courtyard was thrown into chaos once again.


    No one noticed that at the intersection between the Hibiscus Courtyard and the Jade Bamboo Garden, a figure had appeared.


    Yun Ruoleng was brought back to the Duke Palaces and he stayed in the Spirit Water Pavilion, but he was still worried about the two maids, Peach Blossom and Cui Ying. After placing her down, Jun Qingshang left. He did not say what he wanted to do, and Yun Ruoleng obediently did not ask any questions.


    "Miss, if you''re worried, this servant will go exchange with the two of them." An Xiang sat in front of Yun Ruoleng and peeled the lotus seed, eating it happily.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t immediately nod his head, it was as if he was weighing the pros and cons of this matter. After an unknown amount of time had passed, Yun Ruoleng reached out to the plate beside An Xiang and said, "Go, after returning, you will stare at the Hibiscus Courtyard and the Speaker Pavilion."


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang clapped his hands, and held the lotus seed beside Yun Ruoleng in his arms, then fawned on her with a smile, "Then just reward this servant!"


    Yun Ruoleng unhappily nodded his head: "Go quickly."


    "Yes." An Xiang swaggered out of the Spirit Water Pavilion with a plate of lotus seeds in his arms.


    The Spirit Water Pavilion''s spirit energy was extremely dense, although Yun Ruoleng''s internal organs were injured, he was able to recover quickly after coming back.


    After An Xiang left, she walked out of the bedroom and headed towards the side hall. After entering, a burst of spiritual energy surged out, and Yun Ruoleng felt that she was about to break through the fourth level.


    Yun Ruoleng was overjoyed. He did not care whether the ground was clean or not, and directly sat down cross-legged, entering his selfless cultivation.


    This cultivation session had lasted an entire day. By the time Jun Qingshang returned, the sky was already dark, but Yun Ruoleng still had not come out.


    "Your Highness." An Xiang exchanged Peach Blossom and Cui Ying over. When the two of them saw Jun Qingshang coming over, they both bowed to him.


    Jun Qingshang looked around the room, his brows knitted: "Where is your young miss?"

 C141

    "When this servant came, I didn''t see Miss ¡­"


    "Leave!" Jun Qingshang waved and turned towards a side hall.


    Maybe it was because he had the same thoughts, but when Jun Qingshang opened the door, it was opened by someone. Yun Ruoleng was startled when he saw the person in front of the door, and immediately threw himself into his embrace: "Are you done with your work?"


    Jun Qingshang wrapped his arm around her slender waist.


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng was overjoyed, being mentioned by Jun Qingshang, he immediately blurted out a lot of words, "I''ve been levelling up continuously, now that I''m at level 6, I can train the book you gave me later."


    Jun Qingshang caressed her ink-like hair and teased: "After a while, even I won''t be a match for you."


    "That''s right!" Yun Ruoleng raised his chin, looking like a little girl who had gotten lucky.


    Jun Qingshang laughed, and released her, holding her soft and small hand in his own big palm: "If you don''t eat for a day, you must be hungry right?"


    It was good that he did not mention it, but the mere mention of Yun Ruoleng''s stomach had already responded to him. Yun Ruoleng embarrassedly pulled at the corner of his mouth, Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows and held her hand as he walked towards Shang Mo Pavilion.


    "Remember to eat when you practice in the future." Jun Qingshang held her hand tighter, "Otherwise, my heart will ache for you."


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng smiled and nodded, then leaned on his arm.


    Jun Qingshang liked her sticking to him like this, and wished that she would be like this for the rest of her life.


    The news of Yun Ruoleng coming to the Duke Palace was no secret, and at first, the people inside were very surprised, but later they treated her like a princess. When Yun Ruoleng entered Shang Mo Pavilion, he was also very surprised when he saw the two rows of maids standing at the entrance, and when he saw the sumptuous dinner on the table, it wasn''t as simple as being shocked.


    "Just ¡­ just the two of us?" Yun Ruoleng looked at the layer after layer of the plate, and looked at Jun Qingshang in disbelief.


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head: "I don''t know what you like to eat, so I let them make more."


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose, "Actually, I''m not picky about that."


    "Have your meal." Jun Qingshang rubbed her fluffy head, pulled her into his seat and sat down beside her.


    Yun Ruoleng was not going to be polite with him. Since he was hungry, he decided to eat, and picked up his chopsticks to start eating. Jun Qingshang helped her eat while watching her stuff food into her mouth with a cute look on her small face.


    "Aren''t you hungry?" Yun Ruoleng swallowed a piece of fish meat into his stomach. His watery eyes blinked as he stared at Jun Qingshang who was preparing the dishes for him.


    Jun Qingshang swept his eyes across her: "No rush, I''ll eat again after you''re done eating."


    "It''s good of you." Yun Ruoleng withdrew his gaze from Jun Qingshang, picked up a piece of fish from the bowl and placed it beside his lips, "Let''s eat together! It won''t taste good when it gets cold. "


    "Alright!" Jun Qingshang opened his mouth and swallowed the fish on Yun Ruoleng''s chopsticks, carefully tasting it.


    Yun Ruoleng, on the other hand, did not feel anything. He felt that this was not something a couple should do. But the servant girl and An Ying who was watching on the side were completely dumbfounded, especially An Ying.


    He felt that this Seventh Miss Yun kept refreshing his impression of his master again and again. The previous master who was obsessed with cleanliness actually used the same pair of chopsticks as this person.


    However, the person in question didn''t feel strange at all. Instead, he felt like he had fallen into a jar of honey as they chatted without a word.


    After Yun Ruoleng stayed in the Regent¡¯s Mansion for four or five days, someone came from the Minister¡¯s Mansion. The person who came was no other than the Minister¡¯s Mansion''s butler, Wang Fu. When he received this news, Yun Ruoleng was in Jun Qingshang''s arms, discussing on the skill of Spirit Transformation.


    Being suddenly interrupted, Yun Ruoleng was displeased and frowned.


    A certain prince''s mood was also very bad. beautiful eyes slightly narrowed his eyes: "Let him wait!"


    An Ying silently mourned for a second for the Wang Fu who was lying on the ground with a gun. Then, when he thought about who the other party came by, he felt that his silence was not worth it.


    Yun Ruoleng was tired of looking at this, so he laid in Jun Qingshang''s embrace for an hour before getting up and tidying up his clothes, "Lovely love, this father is looking for me."


    Jun Qingshang raised her eyebrows, "Is that so?"


    "How can you tell if it is or not if you don''t look at it?" Yun Ruoleng lowered her head and kissed his lips, "Let''s go!"


    The light in Jun Qingshang''s eyes dimmed but he did not move. It was clear that he was not satisfied with this short kiss.


    In the past few days, Yun Ruoleng had gotten used to Jun Qingshang''s attitude, he reached out and wrapped his arms around his neck, then sat back in his embrace. "If Your Highness doesn''t want to leave, then I''ll be leaving."


    Jun Qingshang stared at her lips that were opening and closing, and when Yun Ruoleng was about to get up, she pressed her hand to the back of her head, and the two of them faced each other with their foreheads: "Go, go, and come back soon."


    "Got it." Yun Ruoleng didn''t want to return to any wolf den!


    With the leisurely life of his Regent¡¯s Mansion and the fact that he could cultivate them, why not?


    Yun Ruoleng pulled Jun Qingshang to the small bed and sat down, then asked Peach Blossom to call Wang Fu in.


    Wang Fu entered and wanted to scold Yun Ruoleng, but when he saw the Regent, his heart trembled. "This old servant greets the Regent, and Seventh Miss."


    "Stand up!" Yun Ruoleng poured a cup of tea for Jun Qingshang and laughed coldly, "What happened at home?"


    "The Minister¡¯s Mansion has always been good, but the old master was worried about Miss, so he sent this old servant to invite Miss back." Wang Fu had a submissive look, Yun Ruoleng felt disdain in his heart.


    Wang Fu actually didn''t know whether he could invite her to leave or not. After all, this was Regent¡¯s Mansion, so he had to ask for her permission to leave.


    Yun Ruo Leng turned back to look at Jun Qingsheng, who nodded to him with a smile on his handsome face. Yun Ruo replied with a faint smile, "I''ve been injured for a long time, why haven''t I seen father send someone over to take a look? Don''t tell me that you''ve thought of something else?


    In his heart, Wang Fu made a ''clatter'' sound, but his face actually broke into a smile. "Miss really knows how to joke. Master is only missing Miss, what can be shown on the map?"


    "Since that''s the case, you can go back with me!" Yun Ruoleng sneered in his heart. Was there no such thing as letting her go?


    But it''s good to go back, pack up and move to Regent¡¯s Mansion.


    After Yun Ruoleng sent Wang Fu out, he felt the air instantly freeze. Yun Ruoleng turned his head to look, only to see the face of the previously fine and healthy Duke now staring at her.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose. "About that ¡­ Will you let me explain? "


    "Better give me a proper reason." Jun Qingshang''s voice was extremely cold, just like the biting cold winter wind.


    But it was useless as Yun Ruoleng was not afraid of him at all. She pushed the little fellow to the side and threw herself into Jun Qingshang''s embrace, then used her soft and small hands to hold his handsome face. "Your Highness, I''m only going back to pack my things, I''ll be back soon."

 C142

    "Really?" Jun Qingshang''s complexion looked a little better, but he was no longer as good-looking.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, her exquisite phoenix eyes blinked, and fawningly kissed him on the forehead.


    Only then did Jun Qingshang retract the cold aura around her, rubbed her fluffy head, and nodded: "Go."


    Yun Ruoleng sat up with a smile, he tidied up the shallow wrinkles on his clothes and quickly ordered Peach Blossom to prepare the carriage and horses.


    When Yun Ruoleng sat on the carriage that had returned to Minister¡¯s Mansion, her expression was extremely complicated. The purpose of her return this time was very simple, it was to move the things away.


    She did not want to stay there any longer. There was no way for her to train properly during the day.


    When he returned to the Minister¡¯s Mansion, he looked at the black mass of people, and his heart was slightly surprised. Then, he thought about something and couldn''t help but find it funny.


    "Leng Er is back!" First Madam pulled Yun Ruoleng''s hand, his smile full of flattery, "Are you better now?"


    "It''s good that he didn''t die." Yun Ruoleng replied with a smile that was not really a smile, which instantly made the air feel awkward.


    "It''s good to have it now that you''re back." Yun Shicheng revealed a smile that was as kind as a father, he patted Yun Ruoleng''s shoulders and said, "Looks like you''re a bit too skinny.


    "Is Father complaining that His Highness didn''t properly entertain me?" The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly. She did not have a good impression of this couple, nor would she give them a good one.


    Yun Shicheng''s smile froze on his face. Mrs. Luo, who was at the side, let out a light laugh, and tried to smooth things over: "Seventh Miss is still injured, it''s a little cold outside, I''m afraid he won''t stay long outside."


    "Right, right." First Madam immediately commanded, "Quickly let Seventh Miss in."


    Yun Ruoleng sneered in his heart, and didn''t want to get entangled with this group of people, so he walked straight in, and directly went to the Jade Bamboo Garden without stopping for even a moment.


    "Miss has finally returned." An Xiang laid on the table weakly, upon seeing Yun Ruoleng coming back, he began to complain, "The people from Minister¡¯s Mansion love to mess around, if you don''t come back soon, I''m going to run away from home."


    Yun Ruoleng laughed, he did not say a word, Peach Blossom pulled An Xiang and laughed: "Since you do not wish to stay, then pack up, let''s go to Regent¡¯s Mansion."


    "Are you for real?" An Xiang was immediately spirited, staring at Peach Blossom, then looking suspiciously at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled. "Go."


    An Xiang did not care anymore. He got up and ran out, while shouting, "An Yue packed his things, and returned to the Duke Palaces!"


    An Yue''s strange words almost made An Yue fall off the wall. When he came back from the wall, he saw Yun Ruoleng ordering Peach Blossom to clean up.


    "Really?" This was the first time An Yue revealed such an astonished expression, although he was still covered by a black cloth, in Yun Ruoleng''s opinion, it tasted much more than the people he met in the past.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded: "Move! We have to move it! "


    An Yue nodded, he did not refute him and went back to his own room to pack his things.


    At this time, Wang Fu hurriedly ran into the Jade Bamboo Garden. He looked at the group of people who were busy packing their things and felt somewhat puzzled, but he did not ask any further. He only chuckled and said, "Seventh Miss, a young eunuch came to the palace.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly, but did not reject her offer. She then spoke a few words to Peach Blossom and took An Xiang to the Pine Crane Hall.


    When Yun Ruoleng arrived, he saw that the young father-in-law did not look familiar, and he seemed to be the little De Zi who was by the side of the little Emperor. Yun Ruoleng glanced at him, but did not try to please him like how Yun Shicheng did, and instead asked puzzledly: "Grandfather is not serving the emperor in the palace, why are you looking for me?"


    "My lady is overjoyed. Your servant has come to congratulate you." The little De Zi had a sweet mouth and a smile when he spoke. He looked very smart.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned: "To be able to survive in the palace is indeed a great joy."


    "No ¡­" The young eunuch was embarrassed. Only now did he realize that this girl was also a vengeful person. "This servant is here to congratulate the young lady. The young lady will naturally be happy." As he said that, Little De Zi took out a piece of Emperor Ming''s decree from his sleeves, and suddenly said with a shrill voice: "Minister¡¯s Mansion, Seventh Miss Yun Ruoleng, accepts the decree!"


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrow, this little eunuch was actually quite cute, she did not want to let him lose face and knelt in front: "This official''s daughter accepts the decree."


    The rest of the Minister¡¯s Mansion were all kneeling behind her. This way, she would be able to stand out the main character of today.


    The imperial edict said: "The Yun family is talented and virtuous, they are the only candidate for the regent''s consort. From today onwards, we will grant you the position of first wife to the regent, and after the wedding next month, we will present you here!"


    "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"


    Yun Ruoleng reached out and took the decree. With a slight raise of his lips, he gave a generous tip and told An Xiang to go to Mo Zhan and deliver the Myriad Miles Rivers and Mountains Painting to the Emperor.


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang was overjoyed, with this decree, no one dared to come and fight for the throne, even if it was the prince''s cousin. Therefore, the moment Yun Ruoleng said this, An Xiang immediately ran towards Mo Zhan.


    Yun Ruoleng stuffed the imperial edict back into his sleeves, his eyes shining as he stared at Little De: "What is the emperor''s request?"


    "This ¡­" This Seventh Miss Yun is really smart, he knows that the emperor would not easily agree to work for others, but this matter cannot be said in front of so many people!


    It was only then that Yun Ruoleng remembered that there were other people present. He cleared his throat and said, "Forget it, he wants this Myriad Miles Rivers and Mountains, just send it back."


    Yun Ruoleng did not forget his condition from that day, the little emperor was a small fry, maybe Jun Qingshang was tricked by him again this time!


    After everyone sent Xiao De Zi and the others away, Yun Shicheng and First Madam took turns to curry favor with Yun Ruoleng. Especially Yun Shicheng, who had a fatherly look, as if he was about to puke.


    Yun Shicheng hurriedly nodded his head, and even specially sent someone to send Yun Ruoleng back. This made Yun Ruoleng''s disdain towards Yun Shicheng''s actions grow even more, and strengthened her determination to leave this place.


    Miss, where''s An Xiang? Peach Blossom saw Yun Ruoleng walking back to the Jade Bamboo Garden with a dark expression on his face, but An Xiang was not behind her.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Peach Blossom and felt a little better. "She went to deliver something to the emperor. She''ll be back in a while."


    Peach nodded and continued packing.


    Yun Ruoleng did not have many things, and Peach Blossom did not even need an hour to pack her things, but this girl had already packed more than ten boxes in an hour, which surprised Yun Ruoleng a little.

 C143

    "What are these?" Yun Ruoleng casually opened a box and took a look, and was extremely frightened, "Damn, why don''t you put the silver notes at home!"


    "This servant felt that the silver was not easy to accept, so she had An Xiang exchange them all for 10,000 taels of silver, and only had one case of crushed silver, here are the three boxes of gold, and there are some headless and untouched cloth. Just now, An Yue saw that I was not able to move them, so he borrowed a few secret guards to help me."


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng rubbed her nose, she really did not know that her family had so much money.


    She threw the shop there for someone to watch, allowing An Xiang to collect money every month to return with Peach Blossom Points, she was very happy.


    "By the way, Miss, are the account books, the books you want to read and the boxes in the study room? Do you want to move them now or when?" Peach Blossom couldn''t wait any longer.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the items, then glanced at Peach Blossom, shook his head, and took out an imperial decree: "At the beginning, I was planning to go to the Duke Palaces to live, but because the situation is a little special, we will buy a small courtyard tomorrow. The rules cannot be broken, otherwise, your majesty''s reputation will not be good."


    Peach Blossom suspiciously looked at the imperial edict. After reading it, she excitedly put it away. "What Miss said is true. First, put the things in the storage room. We''ll talk about it tomorrow."


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng did not object, and happily accepted Peach Blossom''s suggestion.


    When An Xiang came back to know of this news, he also felt that Yun Ruoleng had thought it through, but he was afraid that some people would not be able to resist.


    Sure enough, after nightfall, a certain majestic Regent climbed over the wall from the outside and once again explored the pavilion at night.


    When Jun Qingshang entered the room, he saw the woman he hadn''t seen for a long time lying on the bed, reading a book. When she saw him come over, she only slightly raised her eyes to look at him once more, and her gaze landed on the book.


    Jun Qingshang was a little unhappy. He walked over and took away the book in her hands and frowned: "Are you unhappy seeing this duke?"


    "Of course not." Yun Ruoleng pulled him down and sat him down, moving his body closer to her, then leaned into his bosom and poked his chest with her index finger, "You have some cold air on you, aren''t you afraid you''ll freeze me?"


    "Is it cold?" Jun Qingshang didn''t think too much into it, and pulled up the blanket on her body, afraid that she would be really cold.


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "Your highness doesn''t know how to react. Forget it, let An Xiang help you wash up!"


    "This King doesn''t know how to empathize?" Jun Qingshang lowered his head.


    Yun Ruoleng gave a gentle push with her small hand: "Hurry up, otherwise you won''t be able to come up to sleep."


    "Is that so?" Just as Jun Qingshang lowered her head and prepared to kiss him again, she was pushed aside by Yun Ruoleng with one hand and glared at him a little angrily.


    Jun Qingshang knew that he shouldn''t get in too much trouble, so he shrugged and said, "Alright, I''ll be right back. I''ll let you see how I''ll resolve this in a while!"


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s small face quickly flushed red, and she angrily threw the book at him. Jun Qingshang''s body slightly tilted to the side, easily dodging the attack, leaving behind a long string of laughter.


    A good night of sleep. When Jun Qingshang came back, he actually did not do anything else, because Yun Ruoleng had already slept soundly asleep.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up, it was at the same time as Jun Qingshang going to the morning assembly. Looking at the man quietly dressing by his bed, Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised a little, opening up a corner of the light muslin cloth, her phoenix eyes blinked as she stared at Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang turned his head and coldly glanced at her. Seeing her crawl out of the blanket, he helplessly helped her straighten up: "It''s still early, go back to sleep."


    Yun Ruoleng''s arm quickly wrapped around his neck, and imprinted a "good morning" kiss on his lips.


    ''s brows slightly furrowed, as he was extremely dissatisfied with this kiss. Just as he was about to deepen this kiss, a series of clear knocks on the door came from outside: "Your Highness, it''s almost time."


    The prince glared at the culprit, who was chuckling in the blanket, and got up to leave.


    The moment he opened the door, An Ying felt a cold breeze brush past him. He subconsciously shrunk his neck, and looking at his master''s dark expression, he thought to himself, this is bad, have I disturbed my master''s plans?


    If that was the case, then he would be in trouble. An Ying silently decided in his heart that this sort of thing, next time, would be done by the people beside Yun Ruoleng.


    After Jun Qingshang left, Yun Ruoleng''s expression sank as well. Sooner or later, Jun Qingshang would climb over the wall and be discovered.


    Once he thought of this, Yun Ruoleng lost all sleep. He sat up, took a deep breath in the weak morning light, and started to cultivate as if he had lost himself.


    Yun Ruoleng trained for four hours straight. When she went out, she saw the Mrs. Luo standing in the courtyard with a lot of things.


    Hearing the door open, Mrs. Luo immediately replied with a gentle smile: Seventh Miss is awake, today Master asked me to open Kui''s door, and brought over a lot of good things for you, what do you like?


    "I like both of them." Hearing that, Yun Ruoleng knew that these were all good stuff, and she could not reject them, since Yun Shicheng had given them to her, they would be hers. As for what to do with them, it was not something that Yun Shicheng could handle.


    Mrs. Luo clapped happily. "It''s good that you all want it, master is afraid that you won''t even want the little miss!"


    Yun Ruoleng laughed and did not speak, he turned and returned to his room with Mrs. Luo following behind him. Yun Ruoleng walked over to the table and poured a cup of water for himself as he frowned: "Mrs. Luo has something to say?"


    "I''m afraid the First Madam will not let this go easily. Mrs. Luo''s gaze fixed on the teapot she was using and continued, "The young miss is getting more eccentric, even more sinister than before. You have to be careful."


    Yun Ruoleng''s gesture of drinking tea faltered slightly, and her phoenix eyes darkened slightly: "I know about this. First Madam will give me a gift in no time, I''ll definitely make preparations for her daughter when the time comes."


    Mrs. Luo knew that this Seventh Miss was an intelligent person, there was no need for him to explain further.


    Yun Ruoleng knew the knot in Mrs. Luo''s heart, and pulled his hand with a bit of force: "Rest assured Madam, I will arrange Seventh Brother''s place for you."


    "That kid, Yi''er, doesn''t like official business. I''m afraid he won''t be able to get anything good even if he comes back." Mrs. Luo sighed, thinking that this child was also stubborn. If he decided on something, even ten oxen would not be able to pull him back.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, Yun Yi''s character was like that, and it was also because of this that he could make good use of it. After sending off the Mrs. Luo, Yun Ruoleng called in Peach Blossom who was busy arranging things.


    "What did they send?" Yun Ruoleng took a light sip of green tea, and his gaze swept across the peachy red like ice.


    Peach Blossom passed the list to Yun Ruoleng, and said indignantly: "I wonder what old master is thinking about these, they are all common things, give them to us."

 C144

    "What''s wrong with ordinary things?" Yun Ruoleng chuckled and placed the list to the side, "Don''t mix with us."


    "This servant understands." Tao Hong replied and went out to do some work, leaving Yun Ruoleng sitting alone in her room.


    This day did not seem to be a peaceful day. Yun Ruoleng sat there for a while, waiting for an unexpected guest.


    "Seventh Miss is full of spirit energy, I wonder if Seventh Miss can get used to it?" When First Madam walked in, a pair of eyes that was filled with a faint smile yet not a smile and affection wantonly sized up his surroundings.


    Yun Ruoleng stood up and let out a light sigh: "It''s true that we''re not living comfortably in the Ao Xue Yuan, but my sister''s remnants must still be guarded, in case anyone misses your presence."


    "Haha ¡­" First Madam used a handkerchief to cover his nose and chuckled, "Seventh Miss sure knows how to joke. Who dares to touch Third Young Miss''s things with Minister¡¯s Mansion?"


    "First Madam you!" Yun Ruoleng was too lazy to scold her, and his cold face was immediately pierced through.


    The smile on First Madam''s face instantly disappeared as he coughed lightly, "Girl, you sure know how to joke."


    "I think so too." Yun Ruoleng sat in his seat, his index finger slightly tapping on the table, as though he was looking at First Madam in doubt: "First Madam, you came here to pull some strings?"


    "Of course not." Seeing Yun Ruoleng take the initiative to suggest it, First Madam instantly changed to a different person, and quickly sat down with a stern face: "I am not talking about anything else, just your Big Sis. When the previous emperor passed away, he requested for the daughter of Wu Li to be married to the Regent King, and now that the Regent King has gone against the last will of the previous emperor, I''m afraid many people will not accept this request."


    "After thinking about it, I''ve decided to send your eldest sister to the Regent¡¯s Mansion to be her secondary wife. This way, at least I can relieve some of the pressure on the court."


    "Ha!" Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly, "Not to mention whether I agree or not, even if the empress dowager had just sent her an imperial decree, His Highness still wouldn''t agree. Furthermore, His Highness and I have a very good relationship, we definitely can''t allow anyone to destroy it, if First Madam came to congratulate me, I would welcome him. An Xiang! "


    "Your subordinate is here!" Upon hearing Yun Ruoleng''s voice, An Xiang, who was outside eating melon seeds a moment ago, suddenly appeared behind Yun Ruoleng in a flash. "Miss, what are your orders?"


    "Quickly throw out this bad guy who has ruined my relationship with His Highness!" Yun Ruoleng was not courteous to her, he immediately turned around and left after giving her the order.


    First Madam did not give up after being chased out by An Xiang. After returning to the Hibiscus Courtyard, he discussed with his close nanny about what to do.


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body was releasing cold air, when he thought about how First Madam would feel if he were to give Yun Yueyu to him, he felt extremely uncomfortable, even when he looked at An Xiang.


    After Peach Blossom finished her work, she walked into the room and felt a cold breeze blowing on her face. "Miss, what''s wrong?"


    An Xiang grumbled with extreme anger: "Isn''t it that Lan thing? The moment I entered, I immediately looked forward to see what that person was like, the person beside the Duke!"


    When Peach Blossom heard that, she looked at the young miss''s dripping face and silently pulled on An Xiang''s sleeves, gesturing for her to speak less.


    In the afternoon, Jun Qingshang had someone carry an ancient wood chest into the Jade Bamboo Garden.


    Once he stepped into the courtyard, he immediately felt a heavy pressure pressing down on him. Puzzled, Jun Qingshang looked at Peach Blossom who was playing with the tiger in the courtyard, and then looked at An Xiang who was walking in front of Yun Ruoleng''s door.


    "What''s going on?"


    As if seeing his savior, An Xiang threw himself down and kneeled beside Jun Qingshang. "My prince, please quickly go in and take a look at xiaojie! Today, after the First Madam came, he has angered the young miss to the point that she still hasn''t left her house. "


    "What?" Jun Qingshang''s face darkened upon hearing this. He did not bother about An Xiang who was kneeling on the ground as he quickly walked in front of Yun Ruoleng''s room. He did not even knock on the door as he directly pushed it open and entered.


    Upon entering, he felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, and looking at the person meditating on the bed, Jun Qingshang could not help but twitch a few times, and softly called out: "Ruo Er?"


    Yun Ruoleng slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the person in front of him in a daze for a second, then gave him a big smile: "What''s wrong?"


    "You ¡­ First Madam is making things difficult for you? " Seeing that she was smiling, Jun Qingshang guessed that she was not angry or anything like that, thinking that the servant had made a big fuss out of nothing.


    It was good that she didn''t mention it, but the moment she mentioned Yun Ruoleng, her little face froze. "She wants to give you a person."


    Jun Qingshang sneered, "How dare she?"


    "Of course she wouldn''t dare to tell you!" Yun Ruoleng''s face was filled with anger, her gaze swept across him in an extremely displeased manner, and spoke in a fluster: "If you dare cause trouble outside, I''ll cripple you for sure!"


    This little wild cat liked to scratch people.


    Jun Qingshang smiled and wrapped Yun Ruoleng in his embrace, "In this life, this king will only marry you, okay?"


    "As a prince, are you really only willing to marry me?" Yun Ruoleng had actually prepared himself for him to take in a concubine, but she hadn''t thought that he would say such a thing.


    Jun Qingshang reached out and gently caressed her soft hair as the corner of his mouth rose slightly, "This duke has not married for so many years, so how can it not prove that this duke is waiting for someone who can be a match to this duke for life?"


    "En!" Yun Ruoleng agreed and nodded, it was not that she was easy to deceive, but rather, it seemed that Jun Qingshang did not need to lie to him.


    After all, she had seen how heartless this man was to women. If such a person became sincere, it was likely that he would never change for the rest of his life.


    At that moment, Yun Ruoleng felt that he was satisfied, he leaned into Jun Qingshang''s embrace, and closed his eyes, enjoying the tranquility.


    But no one would have thought that after the First Madam returned, the news of Jun Qingshang going against the last words of the previous Emperor and marrying a young miss with no Shaman Energy had spread like wildfire throughout the streets and alleys of the capital.


    An Ying staggered and rushed into the Jade Bamboo Garden, not caring if Jun Qingshang would be angry or not, he pushed the door and entered, "Your Highness, something bad has happened!"


    Yun Ruoleng sat up from within Jun Qingshang''s embrace, and turned around with his back facing the door in extreme embarrassment. Jun Qingshang''s expression was almost so dark that it looked like it was dripping with black, and felt that the space in his embrace was empty.


    "King ¡­"


    "What is it?" Without waiting for An Ying''s explanation, Jun Qingshang''s voice sounded once again.


    An Ying trembled slightly. Fortunately there was an urgent matter at hand, otherwise, he would have died for sure.


    After he finished sighing, An Ying quickly explained, "Your Highness, word has spread that you have violated the late emperor''s last decree by marrying a woman with no power in the Minister¡¯s Mansion."


    "Who?" When Jun Qingshang heard this, he knew that someone was deliberately spreading rumors. Although he knew clearly that Yun Ruoleng''s Shaman Energy was pure Shaman Energy, this matter could not be made public.


    "First Madam!" Yun Ruoleng was also very angry, he reached out and lifted the blanket on his hand, "An Xiang, change your clothes!"

 C145

    An Xiang looked at the people in the room with suspicion. Each of them had such ugly expressions, she did not dare delay any further. After donning a light muslin over Yun Ruoleng, she quickly left.


    Jun Qingshang twisted his brows, raising his legs, then said: "Master needs to go and take care of that bunch of old fools."


    Jun Qingshang''s footsteps paused, he continued to walk, and arranged for people to guard the courtyard well.


    Yun Ruoleng quickly made his way to the Pine Crane Hall. What surprised her was that Yun Shicheng was also there, and he seemed to be thinking of something as he sneered: "First Madam, are you satisfied with the rumors?"


    "Seventh Miss suspects that it was me?" Inside the First Madam, she looked at Yun Shicheng with an innocent expression. "Master, even if I was given ten thousand guts, I still wouldn''t dare to scheme against you!"


    "Leng Er, you are not allowed to spout nonsense without any proof!" Yun Shicheng frowned in displeasure, "Since things have come to this, we can only send your sister over to the Regent¡¯s Mansion as a secondary wife. That way, we can suppress the rumors, and at the same time ¡­"


    "Father wants Leng Er to learn from Queen E?" Yun Ruoleng''s face became darker and darker, what kind of pressure the rumors about! If Jun Qingshang married Yun Yueyu at this time, wouldn''t it mean that there would be no money left in this place? Was she stupid or stupid?


    Yun Shicheng nodded, and with a fatherly look, he sighed: "Isn''t father doing this for the sake of you and the Duke? At this point in time, this is the best solution. "


    "What kind of shitty method is this? Father, do you really think I''m a fool? The reason you are acting this way is undoubtedly to let the prince face the crime of disobeying the decree. Let me tell you, I have a thousand good ways to settle this matter! But the method that you mentioned is impossible! " Yun Ruoleng did not care about how Yun Shicheng''s face looked, and after he said those words, he remained silent with a cold face.


    "How uncultured!" First Madam''s eyes flashed, and said softly, "Men, capture Seventh Miss!"


    An Xiang immediately blocked in front of Yun Ruoleng, one kick, one punch, all the servant girls lying on the ground cried out in pain.


    Yun Shicheng was good at scheming, but he did not have enough time to consider this. Mrs. Luo sat at the side and watched as he sipped on his tea.


    Compared to the calm and composed Mrs. Luo, the First Madam was not as calm. At the beginning, she had relied on Yun Ruoleng and a servant to win against her people.


    "First Madam really has a bad memory!" Yun Ruoleng glanced at the First Madam in ridicule, "This is Miss An Xiang of the Prince An Ying Guards, what''s the difference in martial arts?"


    First Madam, who had been full of himself just a moment ago, instantly became listless. The maidservants beside Yun Ruoleng were not ordinary maidservants, but the servants of An Ying.


    "Enough!" Yun Shicheng finally could not watch this any longer. Yun Ruoleng''s savagery was about to directly ignore him, a father. Yun Shicheng slapped the table, and water splashed out from the teacup.


    Yun Ruoleng''s cold and detached phoenix eyes slightly swept across the place, and the aura around Yun Shicheng''s body instantly reduced by half. Without waiting for him to speak, Yun Ruoleng first spoke: "Since Father insisted on using this method to help the Duke, then Daughter can only sever her relationship with Father."


    "You ¡­"


    "I, Yun Ruoleng, swear on my blood!" Yun Ruoleng suddenly stood up and faced the sky, and used a dagger that came out of nowhere to cut his finger, "From today onwards, I, Yun Ruoleng, am no longer a Seventh Miss of the Leng Clan, and my life and death has nothing to do with Minister¡¯s Mansion!"


    You ¡­" Yun Shicheng could not help but feel stifled in his heart.


    After Yun Ruoleng swore an oath, he brushed his sleeves and left, not even giving him a single glance.


    First Madam looked like a "good wife", she consoled him: "Old master, don''t be angry, since she wants to break off relations with us, then we don''t have to be courteous to her, so what if Yu''er is one of us? If she dies, only Yu''er can marry into the Regent¡¯s Mansion, at that time, it won''t be as simple as a side concubine."


    Yun Shicheng''s gaze darkened, after that he glanced at the Mrs. Luo who was leisurely sitting beside him and drinking tea.


    Mrs. Luo also noticed Yun Shicheng''s gaze and raised his head to give him a light smile. "This humble one naturally approves of Madam''s words. After all, we are not family."


    "Little sister, you know the gist of it." First Madam glanced at him sinisterly.


    Mrs. Luo shrugged his shoulders, "There''s nothing you can do if you don''t believe me."


    With a cold snort, First Madam did not speak further. Yun Shicheng''s eyes coldly swept over First Madam and Mrs. Luo, "I have my own plans for this matter!"


    "Yes ¡­" First Madam and Mrs. Luo replied at the same time. The two looked each other in the eye and snorted coldly.


    Yun Ruoleng, who had left Song He Hall, returned to the Jade Bamboo Garden. Looking at the Peach Blossom that was playing with Ao Tian, he said coldly, "Take a look at everything. We will move out tomorrow!"


    "Miss, why are you in such a hurry?" Peach Blossom looked at the back view of him leaving with a flick of his sleeve and slightly frowned. Didn''t he say he would wait a while yesterday?


    Why did it change so quickly?


    An Xiang complained with a face full of indignation: "That old man, Yun Shicheng, actually gave the prince his wife and started a rumor. Only the young miss can bear it, if only I knew that I would skin him alive."


    "It''s ¡­ it''s not that serious, is it?" The corner of Peach Blossom''s mouth twitched, as she shrank back in fear at An Xiang''s icy gaze. Sigh! Why was this person so fierce?


    After Jun Qingshang left the Jade Bamboo Garden, he directly entered the imperial study.


    In the study, the little emperor was lying on his stomach on a table, watching a pile of reports impeaching the Regent as he began to worry. He secretly decided that if he caught the rumors, he would tear that person into pieces.


    "Didn''t those old bums find trouble with you?" Jun Qingshang swept his eyes across the little emperor who was in a terrible state of anxiety. His eyebrows slightly raised, it seemed that this brat had sent him away.


    "royal uncle, you finally made it here. That group of people messed around with me for a while and then left. However, these things are not easy to deal with!" The little Emperor pushed the stack of memorials forward as if he had seen his savior. "I have decided that from today onwards, I will give myself a holiday. I will leave everything in the imperial court to you to handle."


    "Want beauty!" Jun Qingshang casually flipped through a piece of imperial report and directly tore it apart. "This bunch of old bastards are just taking advantage of their seniority. How can the Emperor not do anything to face such a good opportunity?"


    "Sigh!" royal uncle, why did you tear this up? " The little Emperor was dumbstruck. At the same time, he realized a problem. His family''s valiant royal uncle was angry, and very angry.


    "An Ying." Jun Qingshang ignored him and called out coldly.


    "Your subordinate is here!" An Ying appeared from the entrance of the study room.


    Jun Qingshang raised his hand slightly, and An Ying respectfully handed a wooden box to Jun Qingshang.

 C146

    The little Emperor''s eyes lit up. He knew that this box was an imperial edict left behind by his royal grandfather.


    Jun Qingshang opened the box and took out the bright yellow imperial edict from inside, his sharp fingers gently opening it. Jun Qingshang passed the imperial edict to the little Emperor. "It says above that the Yun Family''s three daughters all have the right to become this king''s consort. Does Your Majesty think that there''s a problem with Yun Ruoleng?"


    "No!" The little emperor was shining brightly. As expected of the royal uncle, this imperial decree was really the best way to gag others.


    He could not help but want to laugh when he thought of the faces of those people when they saw this imperial edict.


    The little emperor was still young after all, his intelligence was not as deep as Jun Qingshang''s. When Jun Qingshang took out the imperial edict, he only wanted to suppress the rumors.


    Jun Qingshang kept the imperial edict and returned it to An Ying: "Retreat first."


    "Yes sir!" After An Ying kept the things, he respectfully left the imperial study.


    After Jun Qingshang and the little emperor discussed for a while, they finally came out from the imperial study. Because they were worried that Yun Ruoleng would be wronged, they rushed towards the Minister¡¯s Mansion the moment they came out of the imperial study. When he arrived at the Jade Bamboo Garden, Jun Qingshang frowned as he saw the black-clothed men busy everywhere. He did not ask any questions and directly walked into Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng commanding the black clothed man to move the things, Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows: "Ruo Er called the entire An Ying Guards over?"


    "No?" Yun Ruoleng''s body froze. She just wanted An Yue to find someone to carry the things she wanted, but she did not expect him to!


    "This King has raised them for so long, it''s about time I let them do something." Jun Qingshang did not hesitate to call her over. Instead, he lovingly rubbed her head and said, "Let them clean up, you accompany me back to the Duke''s Mansion first."


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng''s cute appearance pleased Jun Qingshang, and the hand that was originally touching his head, slowly moved, finally landing on his pink lips.


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body trembled, and he lightly pushed his chest: "Someone is watching!"


    Jun Qingshang suddenly laughed out loud, causing the surrounding An Ying Guards to be startled, they all looked at Yun Ruoleng in inquiry, what kind of charm did this girl have?


    He actually made the thousand-year old ice mountain master of his family become flesh and blood?


    Being gazed upon, Yun Ruoleng felt his hair stand on end. He immediately snuck into Jun Qingshang''s embrace. Jun Qingshang''s gaze that was still as gentle as water earlier instantly turned into ice. "You''re very free?"


    Are you free? Of course not, before Jun Qingshang could say anything else, the An Ying Guards had already moved what they had in their hands away, not daring to stay any longer.


    Yun Ruoleng felt that the people around had all left, so he stuck his head out and smiled to Jun Qingshang, "The efficiency of the An Ying Guards is really high."


    "This King did not support them for nothing." Jun Qingshang snorted, with one arm around Yun Ruoleng, he walked out.


    An Ying, An Xiang and the others were already used to Jun Qingshang''s temper. In order to not disturb the two, they willingly stayed behind to pack their things.


    Yun Ruoleng felt as if he was soaking in honey while he was being held by Jun Qingshang. Just like that, he walked out of the Jade Bamboo Garden swaggering.


    Yun Ruoleng and Yun Yueyu looked at each other. Jun Qingshang tightened his arms around Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Yueyu and her group of maidservants blocked the two people''s path. However, her gaze that was originally filled with poison, disappeared the moment she saw Jun Qingshang, and became pitiful, looking like she had been abandoned.


    Yun Ruoleng pulled Jun Qingshang behind her, her petite body blocking in front of her, her face suddenly darkened: "Big sister brought so many people with her, are you trying to show off? Or do you want to pick a quarrel with me? "


    Jun Qingshang lowered his head and looked at Yun Ruoleng, who was normally a protector of food. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he was very satisfied with this result.


    Yun Yueyu''s delicate face flashed with a trace of panic, as she awkwardly shook her head: "Little sister is thinking too much, I heard that little sister and father are at loggerheads, so I came to see you."


    "So many people. Are they here to see me or to add insult to injury?" Yun Ruoleng laughed. If Yun Yueyu had come to see him so kindly, then it would truly be rain.


    Yun Yueyu was so scared by Yun Ruoleng''s roar that he immediately started crying. Sparkling tears slowly flowed down his face.


    "Prince, look at your little sister ¡­"


    "Yun Yueyu! You should be clear about what''s on your mind. Don''t pretend that I''m bullying you! "


    However, there was an exception here. Yun Yueyu was a pitiful and indifferent person.


    Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Yueyu while he was crying and frowned in disgust, "Ruo Er, are you ugly?"


    "Your Highness, she''s the Heavenly Awakening''s number one beauty!" After Yun Ruoleng heard what Jun Qingshang said, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up as he retorted.


    Jun Qingshang''s eyes flashed with a smile, he gently embraced Yun Ruoleng and lovingly rubbed her head: "This kind of woman is called the number one beauty in Heaven''s Initiation? Ruo Er should avoid interacting with her in the future, so as to avoid staining your eyes with her. "


    Yun Ruoleng forced himself not to laugh and nodded: "Ok."


    "Let''s go." Jun Qingshang hugged Yun Ruoleng, and immediately went around Yun Yueyu and left.


    Yun Yueyu gnashed his teeth in anger, but could only watch Yun Ruoleng being taken away by Jun Qingshang.


    "Hahaha ¡­" Inside the low key and luxurious carriage that was right outside Minister¡¯s Mansion gate, Yun Ruoleng was lying on the soft bed, holding his stomach and laughing loudly. The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly, and with distinct fingers rubbing her stomach that was laughing so hard, it hurt a lot.


    "I''ve never seen a girl like you, who doesn''t care about her image." Jun Qingshang was a little helpless. He actually had enough patience for Yun Ruoleng.


    With much difficulty, Yun Ruoleng managed to stop his smiling, held onto his stomach, and said with a bitter face: "You can''t blame me for this! Who told you to speak the truth so frankly? I am naturally happy to see her being humiliated. "


    Yun Ruoleng was happy, but Jun Qingshang felt that this was better than anything. The Regent, who had always been indifferent, turned exceptionally gentle as he hugged Yun Ruoleng tightly: "As long as you''re happy, that''s good. As long as no one dies, you can play however you want. "


    "Master, you still care about her?" It was said that a woman in love had zero IQ, the current Yun Ruoleng was like this. Just look at how she said something unpleasant the moment she opened her mouth!


    Jun Qingshang laughed and shook his head: "It''s not fun if I die."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, yes, if you want to play it to death, you can''t finish it, so a certain woman with zero intelligence tried to curry favor with Jun Qingshang and kissed him: "I''m wrong, you''re right."


    Jun Qingshang snorted, obviously unhappy with her apology.


    Yun Ruoleng who was in Jun Qingshang''s embrace twisted and turned, acting cute and adorable, suddenly his entire body froze, his face flushed red from embarrassment, his mind went blank.


    Jun Qingshang''s handsome face tensed up, and his eyes became slightly red, as if he was going to tear her apart and eat her in the next second.

 C147

    "That ¡­" This time, Yun Ruoleng was more obedient. It was not because she was motionless, but because she did not dare to move.


    If she dared to move again, she might be eaten by the big bad wolf in the car.


    "Shut up!" Jun Qingshang''s face was extremely red, so the tone of her voice was slightly heavy. Yun Ruoleng retracted her neck, curled her lips, and could only stiffly lean into Jun Qingshang''s embrace.


    The carriage traveled very fast, but it was a type of torture for the two of them. Jun Qingshang did not want to hurt her, but he also did not want to push her away.


    But he was too naive, and when the young girl''s pure air entered his nose, Jun Qingshang''s entire being did not look good.


    Yun Ruoleng did not feel much better, his entire body was stiff, but the thing under him only increased in strength. Just as Yun Ruoleng was hesitating on whether he should leave this embrace, the horse carriage suddenly stopped.


    "Mistress, we''re here." The voice of the man on the horse outside the door suddenly rang out.


    Without saying a word, Jun Qingshang, who had been holding back his anger all this while, carried the stiff Yun Ruoleng across and carried him in his arms.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face reddened slightly. She buried her head in Jun Qingshang''s embrace, afraid that others would see who she was. Such a bashful look made Jun Qingshang chuckle. Yun Ruoleng was slightly angry as she reached out her hand to ruthlessly pinch his waist.


    Jun Qingshang''s smile froze on his face, and his steps grew bigger and bigger.


    Yun Ruoleng innocently blinked his eyes, always having the feeling that there was an inexplicable sense of danger.


    Jun Qingshang''s speed was extremely fast, and before Yun Ruoleng could regain his senses, he had already arrived at the Water Spirit Pavilion s gate.


    Yun Ruoleng finally realised and used all his strength to push against him. Jun Qingshang was as steady as Mt. Tai, he kicked open the door and walked in directly, and the door automatically closed the moment it closed.


    "Jun... "Oh, you can''t go too far!" Yun Ruoleng saw that he could not push her away, and was angered in his heart, even his voice was fierce.


    Jun Qingshang indifferently swept a glance at her, then slightly bent his body and placed Yun Ruoleng on the bed, and then bent down. He quickly reached out his hands and pressed them against her chest: "Your Highness, I was wrong."


    "Wrong?" Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes as he gripped her pure white lotus arms tightly and asked, "Where did you go wrong?"


    "I, I ¡­" I don''t know. " Yun Ruoleng only felt that she was wronged. She really didn''t do anything.


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth rose in a demonic smile: "What kind of fault do you have now that you don''t know?"


    "You ¡­ "Ugh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng had not even spoken, both of her hands were already on her head, following that, a demonic face appeared in front of her.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up, he discovered that she was also naked, and Jun Qingshang was also lying beside her. Jun Qingshang was currently looking at her with unbridled eyes, and pulled up his blanket: "You bastard!"


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang''s finger, which was distinct from bones, lightly traced across that blushing little face. The corner of his mouth raised and he lowered his head as he lightly smiled by her ear: "If a man isn''t bad, then a woman doesn''t love him. Didn''t Ruo Er like it a lot earlier?"


    "Hooligan!" Yun Ruoleng slapped away that heaven angering face of his. His small face was like a peeled little lobster, making him look extremely cute.


    Jun Qingshang reached out to grab her arm, and stuffed it inside the blanket. He laughed helplessly: "Tianliang."


    Yun Ruoleng pouted slightly. Actually, they had not really progressed to the last step, where Jun Qingshang had stopped at the last moment, and left the carriage after giving her a kiss on her forehead.


    As for why he wasn''t wearing any clothes ¡­ Yun Ruoleng thought that Jun Qingshang must have done it.


    Jun Qingshang carried Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, the delicate fragrance unique to girls wafting into her nose. Jun Qingshang was satisfied with the smell, as he liked to quietly hug her and sleep like this.


    He sat in the imperial study and felt extremely unbalanced, hence he called the group of old subjects over to the imperial palace. After covering himself with his hair and cursing for a while, he then threw the late emperor''s decree in front of the old official.


    In the end, those old officials left the palace in a dispirited manner, and the rumors on the streets and alleyways finally came to an end.


    However, the little Emperor was still unhappy, because the main culprit had not been taken care of. Thus, Jun Rushi asked Little De to call Yun Shicheng over.


    Although Yun Shicheng was cunning and greedy for fame and fortune, he was still a smart person. He wandered around the Third Marquis and the Emperor''s side so that no matter who won, he would be safe.


    Thus, at this critical moment, the little Emperor suddenly summoned him. He was extremely happy in his heart, and hurriedly ran into the Imperial Palace, but he didn''t expect to be hit on the head by a thick book the moment he entered the door.


    "Yun Shicheng! "How dare you!" Jun Rushi stared angrily at the stupefied Yun Shicheng.


    Yun Shicheng''s heart trembled as he looked at Jun Rushi in confusion. What was this little emperor doing now? Seeing his confused look, Jun Rushi laughed angrily: "Do you know your crime of slandering the Regent?"


    Defamation of the Regent? Yun Shicheng was so frightened that his legs went soft. "Plop" he kneeled on the ground. Even if this official was given a thousand guts, he would still not dare to do it! That would be a serious crime to slander the Regent! "


    "Unjustly accused?" Jun Rushi sneered, and looked completely like a child, "People outside say that this matter was spread out from your Minister¡¯s Mansion! It''s not like it''ll only take a day or two for you to give Yun Yueyu to the royal uncle! Have I wronged you? "


    "This subject really doesn''t know about this ¡­" Yun Shicheng really didn''t know about this matter, but when this matter spread out, he felt that it was the heavens helping me, so he didn''t stop them. Adding on to that, it would be hard to control Yun Ruoleng, it would be much easier to control him if he married Yun Yueyu and went to the Regent¡¯s Mansion.


    "I don''t know!" Jun Rushi threw the imperial report in front of Yun Shicheng. Yun Shicheng''s body trembled as he raised his head to look at Jun Rushi with a puzzled expression. However, Jun Rushi didn''t give him a good look and sneered: "We''ll let you die so you''ll understand. See for yourself!"


    Yun Shicheng tremblingly picked up the imperial report from the ground, and looked at it once, completely confused.


    Jun Rushi curled his lips in disdain: "How about now?"


    "This subject is guilty! "Your majesty, please punish me." Yun Shicheng said while gnashing his teeth, as he respectfully prostrated on the ground.


    Jun Rushi did not really punish him, since his royal uncle was still useful to him, he told him to go back and meditate, and not go to the morning assembly after half a month.


    After Yun Shicheng returned to the Minister¡¯s Mansion, he scolded the First Madam because this was something that the First Madam wanted his men to do. For some reason, even though Yun Shicheng scolded him for a while, he left without punishing the First Madam.


    This made An Xiang, who stayed to watch the show, very surprised.

 C148

    If she coldly hugged Jun Qingshang and slept on the bed for an entire afternoon, it wouldn''t be that she was greedy for sleep, but that the warm bed was really comfortable and she was extremely reluctant to leave.


    "The young miss is overjoyed!" When An Xiang returned, he was already dressed neatly.


    The moment An Xiang came in, he wasn''t too surprised when he saw Yun Ruoleng change into a new set of clothes.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, but after that, he seemed to have thought of something, nodded, and indifferently replied: "I understand."


    An Ying tilted his head and looked at Yun Ruoleng in puzzlement.


    Yun Ruoleng did not explain anything to her and directly walked into the living room after getting dressed. Jun Qingshang had already been sitting there for a long time, and together with him was a table full of dinner. When Yun Ruoleng did not come, he did not feel hungry at all.


    "You''ve been tired all afternoon. Have some food!"


    An Xiang''s face reddened slightly, and she let out an awkward cough. An Xiang was still young, after all, she did not understand Jun Qingshang''s words, so she looked at the bashful and bashful Yun Ruoleng, and then looked at the charming Jun Qingshang with suspicion. "What is Miss doing, did you work hard for an entire afternoon?"


    What?! The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched, and unhappily glared at An Xiang: Get out! Is that something you care about? "


    An Xiang still wanted to say something, but he was grabbed by the collar and left, leaving behind only An Xiang who cried out in unwillingness.


    Jun Qingshang raised her eyebrows, and her gaze fell on her phoenix eyes, which did not have the slightest bit of power, "This king thinks about why Ruo Er is working so hard?"


    "Jun Qingshang!" Yun Ruoleng''s charming eyes, which were staring at Jun Qingshang, not only did it lack power, it also had a certain charm to it.


    Jun Qingshang felt his throat tighten and coughed lightly. "Sit down and eat something to fill your stomach."


    "Humph!" Yun Ruoleng moved the chair away from him and instinctively sat in the seat opposite of him, maintaining an absolute distance from him.


    Jun Qingshang frowned in displeasure. Seeing the little wild cat suddenly maintain a distance from him, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he couldn''t bear to disturb her eating. Hence, he kept a pair of hot beautiful eyes s staring at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng''s scalp turned numb from the stare. After eating a few bites, he put down his chopsticks and raised his eyebrows, "Eat more!"


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: Why aren''t you eating?


    "You''ve finished eating. How about you serve This King?" Jun Qingshang moved the chair slightly, but Yun Ruoleng did not notice, and he moved it to the side once again.


    "What are you doing?" Yun Ruoleng stared at Jun Qingshang who was moving towards him.


    Hearing that, Jun Qingshang no longer bothered to dodge. He directly went to Yun Ruoleng''s side and sat down with a stool, and held Yun Ruoleng''s slender waist with one hand. "This king will accompany my beloved concubine for a meal."


    "You, where are you putting your hands!" Yun Ruoleng pushed his face away, "Sit properly!"


    Jun Qingshang did not continue to pester him and just sat straight in his original position. As Yun Ruoleng cooked for him, he stared at him and said, "Eat, I have something to ask you later!"


    "Alright!" Jun Qingshang earnestly ate until he was satisfied with the food, before attacking with all his might.


    The meal was quite sweet.


    Outside, An Ying pulled An Xiang and stood at the door. When the two saw the scene inside, they looked at each other and snickered.


    After the two finished eating dinner, they walked around the courtyard together. Yun Ruoleng snuggled against Jun Qingshang''s embrace and smiled at him from time to time, as if they were staying silent in honey.


    Jun Qingshang tightened his arms. The autumn night''s wind was a little cold, and although it wasn''t very cold, it was still very easy to catch a cold.


    "Your Highness, don''t you think the little Emperor is very powerful? He actually used the idea that you gave him to scold a bunch of people so miserably. I think for a long time, these people probably won''t even dare to come out and make a ruckus." After Yun Ruoleng finished listening to what Jun Qingshang had to say, he was extremely happy.


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was happy, Jun Qingshang''s mood improved, and he kissed the top of her head lightly.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng woke up early in the morning and brought An Xiang back to the Minister¡¯s Mansion in a hurry. She was not going to add insult to injury, but she would not give him a nice look either.


    Yun Shicheng stood at the entrance of the Jade Bamboo Garden, as if he was waiting for her to return. Seeing her return, he coldly snorted: "Since you''ve already left, then don''t come back.


    "Tut!" Yun Ruoleng felt that Yun Shicheng was really shameless, and was even one that was completely shameless. The things inside could buy his entire Minister¡¯s Mansion, but he actually said that he wanted it just because he wanted it, and wanted it to be beautiful.


    "When you were born, you didn''t have a single cent. It''s been fourteen years, so you shouldn''t have taken a single cent with you." Yun Shicheng acted as if everything was as expected, making it hard for him to continue watching.


    Master Shang Shu, the things inside can buy your entire Minister¡¯s Mansion. An Xiang glanced at him in ridicule. "You have left the Ao Xue Yuan that you gave Miss and those tattered things for you! As for the fact that these were all single-handedly created by the Young Miss and given by the Prince, do you want to ask our Lord for his permission first? "


    "You damn girl!" The First Madam pointed at An Xiang and coldly snorted, "Just a mere servant, what qualifications does she have to go through Minister¡¯s Mansion to talk about matters?"


    "First Madam is really forgetful!" Yun Ruoleng pulled the furious An Xiang behind him, "Don''t forget what you people have done to me these past few years, I have always been the target of your bullying ever since I was born. I can''t even match up to a servant like that.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t give Yun Shicheng a chance to speak, and disdainfully sneered: "If you dare to provoke me again, I don''t mind complaining to the emperor again."


    "You ¡­" Yun Shicheng held his breath. He was afraid that this girl would cause trouble for the emperor since the little emperor was biased towards him.


    Yun Ruoleng''s words caused Yun Shicheng to be in a dilemma. Seeing that, the First Madam panicked and was about to say a few words to Yun Ruoleng, but he was interrupted.


    "Old master, forget it!" A warm and gentle voice interrupted the First Madam who was about to speak: "Since this matter has caused damage to our Minister¡¯s Mansion''s reputation, I think we should temporarily put this matter at rest."


    "You bitch!" What nonsense are you talking about? " The First Madam did not wait for Yun Shicheng to speak and scolded, "Eat everything that is inside, help her even at a time like this! Where do you think the old master is? "You ¡­"


    "Enough!" Yun Shicheng interrupted the First Madam with a cold voice, and stared at Yun Ruoleng coldly: "You are a child of my Yun Family!"


    "If you are unable to raise her, then in the end, it is not a blessing for you to be able to do so." Yun Ruoleng waved his hand in disdain, "If Minister Yun dares to stop me again, don''t blame me for being impolite!"

 C149

    With that, a dozen or so An Ying Guards appeared behind Yun Ruoleng, and Yun Ruoleng directly walked around him and entered the Jade Bamboo Garden. Once he entered, he saw that everything was in disorder. Yun Ruoleng''s face slightly darkened, and his gaze landed on the nearby trembling Peach Blossom and Cui Ying.


    "The ground is cold. Hurry and get up." Yun Ruoleng quickly helped the two of them up, and his gaze landed on their rosy and swollen cheeks, sinking slightly: "What''s going on?"


    "Miss, Miss ¡­" "Sob, sob, sob ¡­" Peach Red seemed to have seen her savior, as she hugged Yun Ruoleng and cried.


    Yun Ruoleng was a little confused by her actions, and looked towards the stunned Cui Ying.


    Cui Ying lowered his head and said softly: "First Madam came here early to move the things, Peach Blossom blocked it, so First Madam ordered people to punish us."


    "She''s really impatient!" Yun Ruoleng sneered, and lightly patted Peach Blossom''s back, guessing that this girl was being wronged, if not she would not cry so miserably.


    An Xiang''s gaze moved away from Peach Blossom, as if she was looking for something, looked at the roof and then at the top of the wall.


    Miss, where''s An Yue?


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. She had An Yue to guard the courtyard, and now that such a big thing had happened but he still hadn''t appeared, it was indeed a little strange. Yun Ruoleng closed his eyes and started to search with his whole body''s worth of power. Ripples of energy swept past every nook and cranny of the Jade Bamboo Garden.


    "On the roof!" In a flash, An Xiang went up to the rooftop, followed by An Ying and the guards. In a short while, they were supporting an unconscious person down from the roof.


    "Injured?" Yun Ruoleng was shocked, because at the moment, An Yue''s body was covered in a light black smoke, if he was not mistaken, it should be caused by the Dark Witch.


    "Is my sister here?" Yun Yueyu suddenly came to visit, followed by a servant girl, Rui Ling.


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, "What are you doing here?"


    "Big sister thought that little sister would be leaving the Minister¡¯s Mansion soon, so she came to say her goodbyes." Yun Yueyu pouted her lips and looked at Yun Ruoleng in grievance.


    Yun Ruoleng coldly snorted in his heart, there must be some other meaning behind saying goodbye right? However, if she didn''t say it, Yun Ruoleng wouldn''t be able to point it out. Waving his hand: "Send him back to the Regent¡¯s Mansion for a rest first, I''ll visit him later."


    "Yes sir!" An Ying Wei''s movements were nimble, the four of them quickly made a stretcher and carried the person away.


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng look at Yun Yueyu, and let out a light laugh: "Little sister, it''s too messy here, I can''t take good care of you, so big sister, please forgive me."


    "It''s too messy." The disdain on Yun Yueyu''s face was not concealed at all. When his gaze landed on the porcelain on the ground, his pupils slightly contracted. It broke just like that.


    "All of you, clean this place up." Yun Ruoleng turned and said to Peach Blossom, "Have you finished counting everything?"


    "Don''t worry Miss, I''ve finished tidying up everything." Peach Red looked at Yun Yueyu''s painful look as he stared at the porcelain, and felt disdain in her heart. Even if her young miss smashed it, she wouldn''t leave these things for Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded in satisfaction, he then patted her head and said: "Arrange people to move to Mo Zhan, Zhen Jun has already made room for me."


    "Yes sir!" When Peach Red heard about moving now, she was indescribably happy in her heart. Rather than suffering in this Minister¡¯s Mansion, it would be better to go out and enjoy myself. Although there would be some gossip, it was still better to suffer in the Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    "Is little sister done?" Yun Yueyu swept his eyes across Yun Ruoleng. He was extremely dissatisfied with her disregard, but he still said: "This place is too messy, go out and walk around outside with big sister! After all, after leaving the Minister¡¯s Mansion gate, you will no longer be my younger sister. "


    "Alright!" did not reject her. It was probably not a good thing to have Yun Yueyu personally come to invite her, she was just very curious, what kind of scheme was awaiting for her?


    Yun Yueyu was startled, she did not expect Yun Ruoleng to agree so readily, but she was also stunned for a moment, a smile instantly appeared on her face: "Then let''s go!"


    An Xiang was worried for Yun Ruoleng, but she was blocked by Yun Ruoleng who followed behind her: "Help Peach Blossom pack up, Big Sis and I will go out and walk around the courtyard, we will be back in a while, do not worry."


    "But Your Highness said to let this servant stay close to you!" An Xiang''s hostility towards Yun Yueyu could be imagined, that gaze could not wait to eat her.


    Yun Ruoleng gave her a comforting look, turned around, and left with a wave of his hand. An Xiang knew that she had steeled her heart to not bring him this time. Sighing, he arranged for a few An Ying Guards to follow him, in case anything really happened.


    Yun Yueyu never thought that Yun Ruoleng would actually not bring a single servant. A look of disdain flashed in her eyes, and she finally caught up to Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Yueyu seemed to be in a good mood, holding Yun Ruoleng''s hand and asking questions along the way. Sometimes it was about their childhood, sometimes it was about Jun Qingshang.


    Different from the Regent¡¯s Mansion, other than a few orchids that could blossom, everything else was bare. Yun Ruoleng secretly decided that as long as he liked to plant a few flowers and trees in the Regent¡¯s Mansion, it would be fine whether he liked it or not.


    Things that were supposed to be beautiful were now confused by Yun Yueyu who was chattering away, Yun Ruoleng unhappily frowned: "What do you mean by that? Do you want me to bully you? "


    Yun Yueyu knew she said the wrong thing and immediately shook her head. Her almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Yun Ruoleng pitifully: "I didn''t mean it that way, I just ¡­"


    "I know." Yun Ruoleng didn''t say anything as she continued walking. She was too lazy to waste her breath on her.


    Yun Yueyu saw that Yun Ruoleng did not continue speaking, and heaved a sigh of relief, and in a place where Yun Ruoleng could not see, a killing intent flashed past his eyes, then he hid it, and followed along while laughing.


    The two of them walked to a fake mountain, and Yun Yueyu suddenly grabbed her hand, and laughed: "We''ve walked for so long, let''s go up and take a seat!"


    Yun Ruoleng only indifferently swept his gaze across the hand she was placing on his body.


    The pavilion was at the top of the fake mountain and standing at the top, one could see the entirety of the Minister¡¯s Mansion''s backyard. Yun Ruoleng frowned, this woman couldn''t be trying to trick him into reaching such a high place, and then push him down from here, right?


    Obviously, Yun Ruoleng''s worries were unnecessary.


    Yun Yueyu directly walked to the pavilion and sat down, instructing the maid to make tea, as if he was going to chat with Yun Ruoleng for a long time inside.


    The more Yun Ruoleng looked at it, the weirder he felt it was. Today, all sorts of words were revealed ¨C "strange", and as the proverb goes, "when something happens, there must be a demon". Would Yun Yueyu, who always hated him, really have good intentions to sit and chat with him at a high place?

 C150

    Yun Ruoleng didn''t believe it, but she was suspicious of the usually hot-tempered Yun Yueyu''s delay in making a move.


    "It''s hot outside. Can your sister come in for a while?" Yun Yueyu''s big sister''s appearance made Yun Ruoleng uncomfortable, but it was not the time for her to fall out with him yet. Yun Ruoleng did not say anything as he walked in with large strides.


    Not long after sitting down, Yun Ruoleng felt that something was wrong. His gaze darkened, and killing intent flashed past his eyes as he looked at Yun Yueyu: "Is this the gift big sister prepared for me?"


    "What?" Yun Yueyu innocently frowned.


    What a playboy! Yun Ruoleng sneered, he was indifferent to her innocent expression, as a huge burst of killing intent continued to approach him, causing Yun Ruoleng to feel a chill on his back.


    Suddenly, three An Ying Guards appeared behind her. The three of them worked together to resolve the palm winds, Yun Ruoleng''s face was extremely ugly, staring at Yun Yueyu who was still acting, she could not help but sneer, the white silk in her hands moved, she immediately pulled Yun Yueyu in front of her, and a sharp dagger was pressed against her neck: "If you know what''s good for you, then let us go!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s hand cut onto the back of Yun Yueyu''s neck, his face was so dark that it looked like it was about to fall. She could already see that Yun Yueyu, the hostage, was not going to play any role at all, but this was not the time to kill her.


    "Assemble the formation!" As the black-clothed person leader gave the order, the people outside the pavilion quickly moved. A golden rune appeared in the pavilion and the three An Ying Guards encircled Yun Ruoleng, stretching their hands out and nervously staring at the group of people outside.


    "What formation is this?" Yun Ruoleng looked at the golden runes beneath his feet, and his scalp went numb.


    "A golden light magic formation is a formation that weakens the opponent''s strength. For those who have the power of magic, it''s not a problem at all. Only those who have the power of magic can break this formation."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes darkened slightly as a surge of power gushed out from her hand, "Where is the eye of the formation?"


    "Above your head." An Ying was proficient in everything, and he was even more knowledgeable on this unbreakable spell.


    The leader sneered, he did not place Yun Ruoleng and the rest in his eyes, and waved his hand, "Kill!"


    Yun Ruoleng waved her white silk, and a majestic wave of power followed the white silk and rushed to the top of her head.


    The black clothed man initially looked down on him, and even glanced at Yun Ruoleng in disdain. However, in the next second, the expression on his face froze, because a crack had appeared on the golden light array that was previously impenetrable.


    The next second, ''Bang!''


    The black-clothed men surrounding the pavilion were blasted away by the powerful air currents. Some died instantly, while others fell down the fake mountain. It could be said that they were completely annihilated. The black-clothed man''s expression was indescribably ugly.


    He was extremely clear about Yun Ruoleng''s previous attack, it did not have the slightest bit of power, so how did she break through the array?


    The leader saw that the situation was bad and prepared to retreat. How could Yun Ruoleng let him go so easily?


    An Ying was still stunned. In the next second, when he heard Yun Ruoleng''s command, it was as if he was injected with chicken blood as he beheaded the black clothed man. Because the sound just now was too loud, An Ying did not have that many thoughts about the An Ying Guards packing up at the Jade Bamboo Garden.


    After a while, the leader was captured, the white silk on Yun Ruoleng''s hand fluttered with the wind, and his beautiful face had a cold expression that did not match his age.


    "Miss, the wind is strong here." An Xiang draped a white cloak over her shoulders and looked in the direction of Yun Ruoleng''s gaze, just in time to see First Madam''s courtyard. His heart skipped a beat, "Miss, it can''t be that the Lan family sent this, right?"


    Yun Ruoleng did not answer and turned to walk down the fake mountain.


    Not long after Yun Ruoleng returned to the Jade Bamboo Garden, Jun Qingshang arrived. He was covered in cold air as he walked into the Jade Bamboo Garden.


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled as she placed her hand on Jun Qingshang''s chest. "I''m fine, the golden light array was only so-so, I didn''t even use my magic power and broke it."


    Jun Qingshang squinted and stared coldly at the proud woman: "Do you know how worried this king is?!"


    "I know ¡­"


    "Then why didn''t you let them follow?"


    Jun Qingshang immediately felt wronged when he heard what Jun Qingshang said. He pouted and his phoenix eyes misted over as he weakly replied, "I knew they would bully me, but how would I have known they were so bold?"


    "You know your wrongs?" Jun Qingshang felt that his teeth was aching from her anger, how could this girl admit her wrongs! He was obviously here to make a complaint.


    Jun Qingshang could not bear to scold her anymore, so he helplessly patted her back. "Forget it, you are not allowed to take risks in the future!"


    "Got it." Yun Ruoleng immediately changed her face, her delicate and small face sneaking into his embrace, her bashful and cute look made Jun Qingshang feel even more helpless.


    After tidying up most of the things, Yun Ruoleng held Jun Qingshang''s hand and prepared to leave, but he didn''t expect to meet Yun Shicheng''s group halfway. Yun Ruoleng originally wanted to ignore them, but was already used to coveting fame, so he naturally wouldn''t miss the opportunity to curry favor with Jun Qingshang.


    "It''s almost time for dinner. Your Highness, why don''t you stay and finish your meal?"


    Jun Qingshang lowered his head and glanced at Yun Ruoleng, and saw her nodding slightly. He then coldly swept her with his gaze: "Fine, let''s call it Ruo Er''s farewell meal! After this round, Ruo Er will no longer have anything to do with Minister¡¯s Mansion. "


    Yun Ruoleng''s lips slightly pursed, her small face slightly flushed red, as she gratefully tugged on Jun Qingshang''s sleeves.


    Jun Qingshang stretched out his arm and wrapped it around Yun Ruoleng, allowing Yun Ruoleng to rest in his embrace.


    Yun Yueyu, who was standing behind Yun Shicheng, tightened his grip on the handkerchief in his hands, and then left after Yun Shicheng.


    Jun Qingshang stood outside with Yun Ruoleng for a while before following him in. Because of their own motives, after entering the dining hall, the atmosphere changed as Yun Shicheng tried to curry favor with Jun Qingshang. As Jun Qingshang played with Yun Ruo''s weak and boneless fingers, he listened to him, and occasionally echoed his words.


    Yun Ruoleng was too lazy to listen to him, he buried his head in Jun Qingshang''s arms and closed his eyes to rest.


    Just as Jun Qingshang was getting impatient, the voice of the butler, Wang Fu, came from outside. "Master, dinner is ready."


    "Pass!" Quick, spread it! " Yun Shicheng cheerfully made an inviting gesture towards Jun Qingshang, "Your Highness, please move to the dining hall."


    Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng with a gaze as gentle as water, "Are you hungry?"


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, and slightly shook his head. "No."


    "We can''t lose face for the Minister." Jun Qingshang moved Yun Ruoleng away from his body with clear fingers, and quickly held onto the soft and weak little hand with one hand, "Let''s go!"


    Yun Ruoleng was so obedient that it made Yun Shicheng drool. Even Yun Ruoleng was not so obedient in front of him.

 C151

    The dishes on the table were just some ordinary dishes, and were not the delicacies of a mountain and sea based on Regent¡¯s Mansion.


    Yun Ruoleng''s elegant brows slightly knitted, and asked. "Is your Minister¡¯s Mansion already this poor?"


    "¡­" Yun Shicheng was a little embarrassed as he looked at the dishes on the table and glared at First Madam.


    First Madam felt immense pressure, because she had arranged for the food tonight. She was despised by others and upon being looked at like this by Yun Shicheng, she knew that the authority of the butler would not return to her in a short period of time.


    "Little sister won''t be able to stay home for long. The last meal will be ready!" Yun Yueyu perfectly settled the dispute.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered, she really did not want to eat this meal, if not for wanting to see what Yun Shicheng and the others were planning to do, she would not even bother to stay.


    "Elder sister, I would like to toast you. I wish you and Prince a happy ending." Yun Yueyu poured a cup for Yun Ruoleng, and then poured himself another cup, but didn''t want to spill all the wine onto Yun Ruoleng''s body.


    "Ya!" Yun Yueyu exclaimed, and immediately apologized, "I didn''t do it on purpose."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly as he looked at his slightly wet clothes. Panicking, he used a handkerchief to wipe her hair, and just as he touched Yun Ruoleng''s clothes, he slapped them away.


    "Stay away from me!"


    Yun Yueyu pursed her lips tightly, her almond eyes were filled with mist, looking at Yun Ruoleng in such a pitiful manner, Yun Ruoleng directly ignored her and used a white silk handkerchief to clean the excess water stains, but the water stains on her clothes were unable to clean it at all, causing Yun Ruoleng to frown.


    "How about ¡­ how about Big Sis accompany you to change?" Yun Yueyu seemed to be a little hesitant, but seeing that Yun Ruoleng was frowning and also realising that he was in the wrong, his look of wanting to say something made Yun Ruoleng''s brows furrow even tighter.


    Raising his head to look at Jun Qingshang, Yun Ruoleng nodded to him slightly before standing up and walking out.


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes as he watched Yun Ruoleng and Yun Yueyu leave. The cold air around him was released and everyone at the table felt extremely stifled.


    After Yun Yueyu and Yun Ruoleng left the dining hall, the two walked side by side in the courtyard of Minister¡¯s Mansion. Yun Ruoleng''s body was releasing waves of cold air, of course Yun Yueyu did not dare to go near, but the malicious intent in his eyes could not be hidden.


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at her slightly, and did not say anything as he walked forward. Her clothes had long been taken away, and if she wanted to change, she could only go to Yun Yueyu''s territory.


    There was something fishy about it.


    Yun Ruoleng walked leisurely with his hands behind his back, when he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance, his refined eyebrows unconsciously knitted, and his gaze landed on Yun Yueyu who was beside him.


    Yun Yueyu looked a little flustered, and smiled at Yun Ruoleng: "What''s wrong little sister?"


    "I''m just curious ¡­" Yun Ruoleng suddenly stopped in his tracks, and coldly looked at Yun Yueyu.


    Yun Yueyu thought in his heart, could it be that he had been discovered? Then he seemed to remember something and a smile appeared on his face.


    "Elder sister, why is there a sudden fragrance coming from your body?" Yun Ruoleng lowered his head and sniffed at her body, frowning slightly. Suddenly, his entire body powerlessly lay on top of Yun Yueyu''s shoulder. "You ¡­"


    Yun Yueyu snorted, and directly pushed Yun Ruoleng down to the ground. She didn''t care if she fell or not, after pushing her away, she used a handkerchief to wipe her hands, "Come out!"


    With that, a black figure appeared in front of Yun Yueyu.


    "Take her to the woodshed at the back!" Yun Yueyu''s face was sinister, he looked at Yun Ruoleng and sneered, then turned and walked in another direction.


    The black clothed man glanced at the people on the ground, then indifferently lowered his head and carried Yun Ruoleng back to the woodshed.


    Unbeknownst to the black-clothed man, he had just lifted Yun Ruoleng up. Yun Ruoleng''s pair of phoenix eyes suddenly opened as his fingers pointed towards the air and made a stationary motion.


    After Yun Ruoleng was thrown in by the black clothed person, the door was not locked, because he knew that Yun Ruoleng had already fainted from the scent and was not afraid of her running away.


    Yun Ruoleng stood up from the pile of firewood, and swept his eyes over the environment he was in with a slightly cold gaze. This place was truly a good place to secretly make love, but it was a pity that Yun Yueyu never thought of it.


    Suddenly, a figure appeared beside her. "It''s settled."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head: "I think they should be here by now."


    The black clothed man was none other than the injured An Yue. An Yue had only absorbed a bit of the Dark Witch''s Qi, so he was fine. Yun Ruoleng laid on the pile of firewood again. Seeing this, An Yue frowned: "Miss, are we not going back?"


    "The good show is yet to come! What are you so anxious for? " Yun Ruoleng laughed, she felt disdain towards Yun Yueyu''s methods, and waved his hand at her, "Hide yourself, and use some trick on me and Yun Yueyu later."


    "..." "Fine!" An Yue felt a little helpless towards Yun Ruoleng''s plan, but he did not refute it.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng said, Yun Yueyu would be back very soon. On his way back, he brought a few men with tattered clothes with him. Although Yun Ruoleng''s eyes did not open, he could still smell the sour stench in the air along with a faint fragrance.


    Although Yun Ruoleng did not know what the fragrance was, she knew that there was something fishy about the fragrance.


    "Come in!" Yun Yueyu slowly walked into the woodshed, seeing Yun Ruoleng lying on the ground, the corners of his mouth raised up, looking like he was the victor as he waved his sleeves, "This woman will reward you guys."


    Since beggars lived in poor alleys, there were no women at all. Naturally, the male beggars'' desire for women could be easily imagined, and with Yun Ruoleng''s exceptional beauty, he was able to give her a kind of hazy charm. Naturally, the beggars couldn''t help but want to pounce on him.


    Yun Yueyu seemed to be very satisfied with these people''s reactions. He clapped his hands and was about to leave, but before he could take a step forward, he was thrown back by a black shadow and heavily closed the door.


    Yun Ruoleng, who was currently lying on a pile of firewood, was standing at the door. Separated by a door, he asked with a worried frown, "If she were to casually throw it away, would she be able to escape calamity?"


    "I''ve already ordered her to sleep in her cave. In addition, she has the Fierce Joyous Union Powder on her, so it''s impossible for her to escape."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, and turned to wave at An Yue: "Since you can''t run, then let''s go back to our seats! Don''t let His Highness wait too long. "


    "Yes sir!" An Yue cupped his fists in reply. He was very clear about how much the Duke cared about the Seventh Miss, if he did not go back soon, it would definitely make the Duke worry. Thus, when Yun Ruoleng asked to leave, she actually heaved a sigh of relief.


    Yun Ruoleng clapped his hands, and casually walked towards the dining hall. As he walked, he said to An Yue beside him: "No matter who asks later, you will say that you have been walking with me every step of the way in the garden."

 C152

    "But ¡­"


    The moment An Yue opened his mouth, he was cut off by Yun Ruoleng with a wave of his hand: "Don''t worry, even if they know that I am the one who did this, they would only dare to hold it in their hearts. Let''s go!"


    felt that what she said was reasonable. Seventh Miss was backed by the Duke, who would dare doubt that she would use such a method?


    Suddenly, the sound of anxious footsteps came from afar. Yun Ruoleng pulled An Yue and quickly went into hiding, through the leaves, she could see a with a cold face and an extremely dark complexion, followed by a First Madam with a puzzled face and Mrs. Luo.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrow, he did not expect it to be so fast, looks like Yun Yueyu had prepared a trap for them, but he did not expect it to be so fast.


    Only after they had left did Yun Ruoleng and An Yue descend from the tree. The two of them looked at each other and did not say a word, but at this moment, Jun Qingshang was brought to the firewood house by Yun Yueyu''s servant, her expression was unspeakably ugly.


    Especially after hearing the excited voices inside, Jun Qingshang''s face became so dark that it dripped with water.


    "Did the Minister prepare a living painting of the Spring Palace in the Residence?" Jun Qingshang glanced at the black faced Yun Shicheng in ridicule.


    Yun Shicheng felt sweat dripping down his forehead. How did he know what was going on!


    However ¡­ Yun Shicheng looked at Rui Ling, and immediately knew who the woman inside was. He was elated, but he had a helpless look on his face: "This subject doesn''t know it''s going to be like this, these seven women have always been like this, this subject will have someone call her out now!"


    Jun Qingshang''s expression turned cold, but before he could say anything, the door was pushed open by the First Madam, and what entered his eyes was an unbearable scene. Jun Qingshang glanced at his clothes that were torn to shreds on the ground, and the cold air around him disappeared in the blink of an eye.


    "Hurry up and pull this group of people away!" Now that such a painting has appeared in front of Jun Qingshang, it is impossible for Yun Ruoleng to marry the Regent, and then, his eldest daughter would have a chance. The more Yun Shicheng thought about it, the happier he got, and the happier he became, he would immediately confess to Jun Qingshang. I hope that Your Highness does not vent your anger on the Minister¡¯s Mansion. "


    "Is that so?" Jun Qingshang raised his head slightly, and his gaze swept across the few people who could not bear to part with him.


    Yun Shicheng''s heart was thumping loudly. He wouldn''t really vent his anger on them, right? That won''t do.


    Yun Shicheng kneeled in front of Jun Qingshang with a ''putong'' sound, "Your Highness, this subject knows that I am not strict with my discipline, so I made such a mistake. But Yun Ruoleng has already broken off all relations with this subject, so you can no longer be angry with this subject''s family."


    Ah!" Just as Yun Shicheng finished speaking, a scream was heard, followed by chaos.


    Yun Shicheng subconsciously looked in. It was good that he did not see it, but upon seeing it, he nearly bit his tongue off.


    "Ruo Er!" Jun Qingshang didn''t bother to look at the chaos that had ensued. She only slightly tilted her head and looked at the white-robed, long-haired woman standing at the door. Following behind her was An Yue, who coincidentally was walking in with a beautiful smile on her face.


    "Why are we all squeezed together in such a shabby woodshed?" Yun Ruoleng walked into the room and looked at them with a puzzled expression. Compared to acting, she was definitely not inferior at all.


    Jun Qingshang extended his arm and wrapped it around Yun Ruoleng, before pressing his chin on top of her head, "Master Shang Shu has just given this king a living painting of the Spring Palace."


    Yun Ruoleng pouted: "Did you see that?"


    "How could that be!" Jun Qingshang scoffed with arrogance, "Is this king the kind of person who can enter the eyes of any kind of women?"


    Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly, and yawned lazily. The Protector Regent lowered his body and gently hugged his wife, saying: "Master Shang Shu still has matters to attend to, Ruo Er and I will take our leave!"


    Yun Shicheng''s face alternated between green and white, as he looked at the shivering Yun Yueyu who was wrapped in a cape, his expression grew even more unsightly.


    Only after Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang had walked out of the Minister¡¯s Mansion did Yun Shicheng make his decision. He glared at the First Madam with ice-cold eyes: "Big Miss, you are unwell, you are not allowed to leave the Speaker Pavilion."


    "Old master!" First Madam threw himself in front of Yun Shicheng, "There must be something wrong with this, it must be because of that bitch Yun Ruoleng, you can''t punish Yu''er!"


    "If she didn''t plan to harm Yun Ruoleng, how could she possibly bear the consequences?" Yun Shicheng immediately pushed First Madam away from her, reached out his arms to hug Mrs. Luo and left without looking back.


    "Old master!" First Madam roared at the back of Yun Shicheng, "Don''t forget, she''s also the granddaughter of the Lan family!"


    "She''s plotting against the future Regent and Royal Consort! "Even the Lan family won''t be able to protect her!" Yun Shicheng coldly threw down these words and left. This time, he was truly aware of Yun Ruoleng''s position in Jun Qingshang''s heart.


    He also clearly knew that he could only rely on Yun Ruoleng to tie up the Regent.


    Yun Shicheng regretted listening to First Madam''s words back then. Now that he was at loggerheads with Yun Ruoleng, he reckoned that he wouldn''t get any benefits from it.


    At the same time, Yun Ruoleng who was being thought of by others was lying in Jun Qingshang''s embrace, flattering her majesty.


    "Your Highness, I was wrong." Yun Ruoleng tugged on Jun Qingshang''s sleeve, but was brushed aside coldly. Yun Ruoleng felt especially sullen, he didn''t care about the difference between males and females. He got up and sat on Jun Qingshang''s body, sticking to him like candy.


    Jun Qingshang squinted and did not push her with his hands, but he did not reach out to stabilize her. He only responded with two words: "Get down."


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng''s acting coquettishly had a pretty good foundation, her watery phoenix eyes were filled with mist, "Since she''s being bullied, she naturally has to repay the favor with her own ways."


    Jun Qingshang frowned: "What did you promise this duke?"


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng shook her head obediently, "Didn''t we have An Yue?"


    "You ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng was afraid that Jun Qingshang would become agitated and raised his head quickly, blocking the words that he was about to speak. The light in Jun Qingshang''s eyes grew deeper as her large palm pressed down on her head, deepening the kiss.


    This follow-up development was wrong! Yun Ruoleng was shocked, she secretly cursed, but Jun Qingshang did not give her the chance to escape. His slim body fell to the side, pressing Yun Ruoleng onto the soft couch on the carriage, he was venting his anger on her lips.


    "Ugh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng frowned in pain, her small hands holding onto Jun Qingshang''s shoulders, wanting to push him away, but Jun Qingshang did not give her the chance.


    Yun Ruoleng kissed Yun Ruoleng until he was dizzy and his entire body was limp in Jun Qingshang''s embrace. A big bad wolf that was full snorted coldly, "If nothing happens this time, I''ll forgive you for now. If there''s a next time ¡­"


    "There won''t be a next time!" Yun Ruoleng waved her claws excitedly. She would never risk herself again, otherwise, if she was not killed by the enemies, she would be crippled as well.


    "Better remember what you said." Jun Qingshang snorted, burying his head on Yun Ruoleng''s shoulder to catch his breath.


    Yun Ruoleng''s arm wrapped around Jun Qingshang''s neck, and the corners of his mouth twitched in a place where he couldn''t see.


    This man was truly tyrannical to the extreme.

 C153

    "Mistress, we''re here." After an unknown period of time, the carriage finally stopped. Jun Qingshang raised his head from Yun Ruoleng''s shoulder, the beautiful eyes squinted his eyes and seriously observed Yun Ruoleng''s shy look, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, and reached out to to pull him out of the carriage.


    "It''s not good if you don''t use dinner. Let''s have dinner with a pint of incense tonight!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, "Good! It would be good not to go back and mess with the cooks. "


    "You must be greedy!" Jun Qingshang shook her head helplessly, this girl knew how to find excuses.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly, and did not deny it. The two of them indiscriminately snuggled together and entered a pint of incense, which attracted quite a few people''s attention.


    "Wang ¡­ Prince." Just as the two of them were entering the private room, someone suddenly called out to Jun Qingshang from behind.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, her phoenix eyes narrowed, as a strong sense of danger assaulted him. Jun Qingshang lowered his head to glance at Yun Ruoleng''s increasingly cold expression, and the corner of his mouth unconsciously raised upwards: "Jin Rou is this king''s cousin, is Ruo Er eating something good?"


    "You guys chat." Yun Ruoleng did not even look back as he pushed open the private room''s door and entered. The moment he entered, he saw a man dressed in an embroidered grey robe sitting in front of the table, sipping wine. Yun Ruoleng raised his head to look at the door plate of "Sky No. 1".


    "Won''t Miss Yun come in?"


    Yun Ruoleng was slightly surprised, he did not notice that this person was the person that he met at Mo Zhan''s place, Feng Dong. It was just that ¡­ Yun Ruoleng didn''t understand how Jun Qingshang''s private box could possibly hold this person here.


    "Why aren''t you going in?" Just as Yun Ruoleng was hesitating on whether he should find Jun Qingshang to change rooms, a clear voice came out from above his head.


    Yun Ruoleng subconsciously pointed inside: "Should we change it?"


    "No need!" Jun Qingshang carried her and entered the room, and directly walked to the table and placed Yun Ruoleng on it, then sat down, "Why are you here?"


    "Drinking too much of the flower wine will make you sick. I just want to drink some fresh wine from this pint of yours to quench my boredom." Feng Dong raised the wine cup in his hand, his demonic phoenix eyes slightly raised, and his thin lips carried a faint smile.


    Jun Qingshang slightly narrowed her eyes, and suddenly spoke: "You don''t want your eyes anymore?"


    Feng Dong''s expression stiffened, and the corner of his mouth unconsciously twitched. "Um, why don''t you introduce me ¡­"


    "Didn''t you know him?" Jun Qingshang snorted, and released all of his Qi.


    Yun Ruoleng shrunk his neck, wanting to lower the feeling of his own existence, but there was someone who didn''t know any better who wanted to drag her down with him, saying, "I don''t really know him, Your Highness, let me introduce him a little!"


    "Phoenix Diagram." Jun Qingshang''s expression was already extremely ugly, to the extreme. He turned around and fiercely glared at Yun Ruoleng, "Stay far away from him!"


    "Huh?" The Phoenix Diagram? Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. She knew that Feng Dong was his alias, but she never thought that he was someone from the Eastern Yue Kingdom.


    As for why Yun Ruoleng knew that he was from Dongyue, it was because Tian Qi did not have someone with the surname ''Feng''.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze darkened, and she nodded her head obediently: "I understand."


    Huang Tu was alarmed. He looked at Yun Ruoleng''s guarded face and felt that his heart was broken: "Beauty, can''t I do the wrong thing? "Don''t be angry at Brother."


    Yun Ruoleng shot him a look of disdain, and leaned towards Jun Qingshang, as if he was someone I don''t recognize.


    Jun Qingshang picked at the beautiful eyes in satisfaction: "You can go now."


    "Jun Qingshang, you call this valuing women over friends!"


    "This King likes it."


    The moment Jun Qingshang finished speaking, the private box''s door was opened by someone. An Ying stood at the door and made an inviting gesture, then said expressionlessly: "Please take your Highness to another place to eat."


    Feng Tu gnashed his teeth in anger at Jun Qingshang and An Ying, but he could not change anything.


    "Beauty, see you next time!" After challenging Jun Qingshang''s limit, he quickly left, leaving behind only the furious and bewildered Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng.


    "Stay away from him." Jun Qingshang said domineeringly after he called his men to retrieve the items on the table.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose, innocently blinking his eyes: "I can''t control it too! What if he pesters me? "


    "Kill him!" Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised, but there was no smile in his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body trembled and the corner of his mouth unconsciously twitched a few times. This person was truly tyrannical to the extreme, but this also meant that he was worried about her. Yun Ruoleng was elated.


    After returning to the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Yun Ruoleng was placed in the Water Spirit Pavilion. Peach Blossom, An Xiang and Cui Ying stayed by her side, because the spirit energy here was relatively dense, she did not dare to keep people by her side for long, so the only person who was truly close to her was Jun Qingshang.


    "What are you thinking about?" Jun Qingshang hugged the lady tightly.


    "Aren''t you afraid of the spiritual energy?" Yun Ruoleng was annoyed, why did he ask?


    "No!" Jun Qingshang pondered for a moment, then explained, "Do you remember the place I took you to?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, of course he knew that place was too mystical, it was just like a teleportation circle, changing places all of a sudden.


    There are two pieces of Divine Ink Jade, one carved from a dragon and the other carved from a phoenix. The dragon jade has the ability to resist the Qi of Heaven and Earth, and the phoenix jade has the ability to absorb the purest Qi of heaven and earth. Only, the two pieces of jade each have nine seals, and only those who cultivate the Yang Qi can remove them.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up. Wasn''t this what she and had always been hanging on their bodies? Jun Qingshang knew that she was clever, he only needed to explain a lot of things to her, and he did not need to worry about the rest.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his chest, finally understanding the situation.


    Jun Qingshang lightly patted her back: "Go to sleep!"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng found a comfortable position in Jun Qingshang''s embrace and fell asleep after a while.


    After a long while, Jun Qingshang slowly opened his eyes and his gaze fell deeply on Yun Ruoleng''s sleeping face. The corners of his mouth curled up, and after kissing her forehead in satisfaction, he once again closed his eyes and fell asleep.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up, he wasn''t even a shadow of Jun Qingshang anymore. If it wasn''t for the wrinkles around her, she would have thought that everything that happened last night was all a dream!


    "Miss, are you awake?" Peach Blossom walked in with a basin of clear water. A faint smile hung on her small face. "The prince has gone to attend the morning assembly. Young Miss need not worry."


    "Who''s worried about him?" Yun Ruoleng glared at her unhappily, "Washing and changing, let''s go to Mo Zhan."

 C154

    "Yes sir!" Peach Red smiled and took out a purple hibiscus shirt for Yun Ruoleng to put on. She moved skillfully and quickly made Yun Ruoleng look beautiful.


    Yun Ruoleng turned around in front of the mirror. Feeling that it was not bad, she waved her hands at Peach Blossom. "It''s good that An Xiang is here, you guys stay at the Duke Palaces.


    "But Miss, I also want to go out for a walk!" Her bright red eyes looked at Yun Ruoleng in anticipation.


    Yun Ruoleng could not stand her actions the most, and sighed helplessly. "Fine, follow me."


    "Alright!" Tao Hong happily took a cloak for Yun Ruoleng, and quickly followed behind to look.


    An Xiang and An Yue were standing at the door discussing something, hearing the voice from behind, both of them were stunned.


    "Miss, are you going out?" An Xiang swept a glance at the cape on her hands, and frowned, "The atmosphere outside today is not good, Miss, do you want to take a walk around the Duke''s Palace?"


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, what was happening outside again?


    An Yue looked at Yun Ruoleng''s doubtful expression and said in a slightly sunken voice, "After the news spread out from the Minister¡¯s Mansion, little miss did not hesitate to frame her own sisters in order to get ahold of the prince, it seems that even the outside world has gone insane."


    "So?" Yun Ruoleng''s hand that was holding onto the handkerchief tightened, his face sunk, so it turned out that Yun Shicheng did not plan on letting him go!


    "Before the prince entered the palace, he sent someone to stop you from leaving so that you wouldn''t get hurt." When An Yue said this, his gaze tensed up as he stared at the expressionless Yun Ruoleng: "Are you still going to go out?"


    Yun Ruoleng sneered: "Does he think he can ruin my reputation just like that?"


    "Miss, what should we do?" Peach Blossom was panicking. In the past, the First Madam had spread many rumors, but those rumors only said that the young miss was ugly and did not understand the rules. As long as they saw the real person, they would destroy themselves.


    But now this ¡­ Peach Blossom was a little worried.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly, she believed in the principle of clearing one''s mind.


    Moreover, Yun Shicheng did not care about his face, so why would she care about his?


    This made An Yue and An Xiang heave a sigh of relief. After all, the outside world was so chaotic, and if she were to leave, there was no telling what might happen to her.


    After leading An Yue into the room to discuss the matter, Yun Ruoleng went ahead to cultivate. However, when Jun Qingshang returned, he heard An Yue''s report.


    "Yes sir!" Even though An Yue had followed Yun Ruoleng, his heart had always been with An Ying and the guards, and he was even more convinced that Jun Qingshang was his master.


    Jun Qingshang waved for An Yue to leave, and with a crease of his eyebrows, the fiery-red cloaked Feng Tu walked in. Looking at Jun Qingshang''s vexed expression, his almond-shaped eyes slightly pricked: "If you encounter any difficulties, don''t discuss it with this king."


    "Why are you here?" Seeing that no one stopped Feng Tu from entering, Jun Qingshang''s face darkened slightly.


    Huang Tu muttered in dissatisfaction: "I came to help you out of the kindness of my heart, what do you mean by driving me out?"


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, his fingers lightly tapped on the table: "You better tell me a way to satisfy me!"


    The expression on Huang Tu''s face became extremely serious: "When have I ever lied to you when you''re facing serious matters?"


    Jun Qingshang gave a cold snort, and calmly cut through: "It''s not that I didn''t deceive you, but I''ve never thought of a good idea."


    With a "pa da" sound, Phoenix Diagram felt as if his heart had instantly shattered into pieces. This person was simply too ungrateful! Huang Tu clutched his chest, looking as if he was about to die and sighed: "Not only are you overestimating your sexual relations, you are also a poisonous snake."


    "Phoenix Diagram!" Jun Qingshang''s face instantly darkened, "If you have nothing to do, then scram for this king!"


    Huang Tu curled his lips, looking as if he knew you would have such an expression. He casually found a spot to sit, and then unhurriedly said: "Actually, it''s very easy to settle the matter. All you have to do is tell us about what happened that night."


    "Do you think it''s that simple?" Jun Qingshang looked at him as if he was an idiot. "Or do you think that Minister Yun is really stupid?"


    Huang Tidemark''s eyes narrowed. He did not expect that the officials of Heaven''s Enlightenment would be so chaotic, but this gave him a very good opportunity.


    In the end, the Phoenix Diagram was unable to think of anything, but Jun Qingshang did think of a good method. This hour coincidentally also happened to be the time for lunch, so after Jun Qingshang drove the Phoenix Diagram away, the diameter went toward the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    "Your highness, Miss is in closed door cultivation and probably won''t be able to come out for a while." Tao Hong was in the middle of teasing Ba Tian, and when she saw Jun Qingshang walk in, she immediately stopped him.


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly: "Did she not say when she would come out?"


    Peach Blossom helplessly shook her head. "Miss usually goes into closed door cultivation for a few hours, and during these few hours all her senses have been sealed."


    Jun Qingshang''s face sunk. Didn''t this say that Yun Ruoleng would not come out at noon? Did he take his words as though they were nothing? Jun Qingshang instructed An Ying behind him and directly entered the study room.


    When Yun Ruoleng came out, it was already dusk, but her mood seemed to be good, because her training had increased her strength by a lot, and what made her even more happy was that she could actually be like Yun Qingyao, using spirit artifacts.


    Yun Ruoleng happily opened the door and came out. He saw Peach Blossom anxiously walking around the entrance.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression tensed up: What happened again?


    "Miss, it''s out!" Peach Blossom quickly rushed into the room next door. She seemed to be excited, but also seemed to be ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng curiously followed him in, just in time to see an ice-cold Jun Qingshang sitting on the soft couch. He asked curiously: "What''s wrong?"


    Jun Qingshang continued to read his book, completely ignoring her. Yun Ruoleng rubbed his head, then walked to Jun Qingshang''s side and sat down. His small hands tugged on his sleeves: "Is it because I didn''t come out today, that''s why you''re angry?"


    "He even knows his own limits." Jun Qingshang shot a cold glance at Yun Ruoleng pulling at her small hand. This girl didn''t even know how to take care of herself.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, there''s hope! At least he wanted to talk to me, right?


    Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly: "Aren''t my senses closed, I simply don''t know what time it is? You have a lot of people, so don''t be angry, okay? "


    "An excuse." Jun Qingshang let out a cold snort, and brushed away Yun Ruoleng''s small hand.


    An excuse? Yun Ruoleng''s temper wasn''t very good either. After he brushed it away, he also became angry: "If I don''t explain, then what do you want to do?"


    Jun Qingshang coldly swept a glance at him, and did not directly answer, but only waved at Peach Blossom who was standing at the door: "Chef."


    Yun Ruoleng became angry and immediately pounced on Jun Qingshang, opening his mouth and biting on his shoulder. Jun Qingshang frowned slightly. He pressed his middle finger against Yun Ruoleng''s forehead and said snappily: "Are you a dog? "I''ll bite him the moment I get here."

 C155

    "Humph!" Yun Ruoleng was extremely arrogant, but she did not have the heart to be arrogant. She was afraid that if this lord wasn''t happy, he would throw her out, so after taking a bite, Yun Ruoleng quickly escaped the scene.


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, the depressed feelings he had all day were swept away.


    "Will you hit me?" Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes and hid far away like a puppy who had done something wrong.


    Jun Qingshang chuckled, and shook his head slightly: "How can I bear to do that?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, he eagerly ran over to sit down, but before his butt could even reach the chair, he was pulled into Jun Qingshang''s embrace.


    Yun Ruoleng cried out in alarm, her small hands quickly wrapped around Jun Qingshang''s waist, making her look like she was throwing herself at him.


    Yun Ruoleng''s clear eyes looked at Jun Qingshang blankly, while her thin lips slightly rose: "This king isn''t angry yet, but mister is."


    "I know I was wrong, why aren''t you paying attention to me?" Yun Ruoleng found it hard to speak, her face pouting as she was unwilling to look at him, but she did not let go of Jun Qingshang''s neck.


    Jun Qingshang held onto Yun Ruoleng tightly: "Do you dare to not eat anymore in the future?"


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, why did she come all the way up here?


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang frowned and spat out a single syllable.


    Yun Ruoleng curled her lips, and used her hands to push his face away in an extremely dissatisfied manner: "Got it! "Got it!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s face darkened slightly: "Perfunctory."


    "Your Highness, I''m really hungry." Yun Ruoleng really did not want to bother with this problem, so he pulled on his sleeves in grievance.


    Jun Qingshang could not bear the pitiful way she begged him anymore. Sighing, he reached out and gently rubbed her head: "Then, let''s eat some pastries first."


    Jun Qingshang pulled a plate of osmanthus cake on the table in front of him and handed it over to Yun Ruoleng: "Open your mouth."


    Yun Ruoleng obediently took a bite, and with a slightly unhappy frown, she spat out a word from her small mouth: "Oily."


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows slightly. He had actually forgotten that this girl didn''t like sweet food. After placing the pastries back on the plate, Jun Qingshang''s gaze coldly swept over the entrance. "You haven''t come for dinner yet?"


    "The Peach Blossom has already been passed around." An Xiang felt his scalp tighten and his heart collapse. Initially, the Duke told them to go get it later, but they only went there now, and would probably be back after a while.


    "Don''t make things difficult for them." Yun Ruoleng pulled Jun Qingshang''s hand, her small head nudged in her embrace, "I was just saying it, I''m actually not that hungry."


    Jun Qingshang did not say anything, but picked up the osmanthus cake from the ground and continued to place it on Yun Ruoleng''s lips.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned but did not refuse. She took another bite and the two snuggled up to each other. After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Peach Blossom finally came back with her food box in her hand, panting for breath.


    After Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng finished their dinner, they went to the garden for a stroll as usual. On the way, Yun Ruoleng didn''t forget to tell Jun Qingshang about him wanting to grow flowers in the courtyard.


    Regarding this kind of matter, Jun Qingshang had never rejected Yun Ruoleng. Furthermore, she had been at home for a long time, and the Duke Palaces were only this big.


    Yun Ruoleng had only mentioned it to Jun Qingshang in the beginning, but whether he agreed to it or not was a matter for consideration.


    Leaning into Jun Qingshang''s embrace, Yun Ruoleng enjoyed the peace of the autumn night to his heart''s content. However, there were some people who didn''t allow them to do as they pleased, such as the Phoenix Map in the Duke''s Palace.


    "Yo!" Huang Tu appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng, his face filled with curiosity as he looked at the two of them.


    Yun Ruoleng felt goosebumps all over his body, he felt that this Phoenix Diagram was not like how it looked on the surface, the pair of phoenix eyes seemed to be able to see through one''s heart.


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes as he hugged Yun Ruoleng tighter. "Why did you come out in the middle of the night without sleep?"


    "I just got back!" Huang Tu felt wronged. Today, he had gone to the Fragrant Garden with great difficulty to see Little Fairy and Xiang Rou, but now that he had returned and met this fiend, even he didn''t want to!


    "Stink." Jun Qingshang did not care about his face at all, grabbed Yun Ruoleng and walked around him, ready to leave.


    Huang Tu raised his sleeves and sniffed, then frowned: "Where''s the stench? This is obviously very fragrant, okay? "


    Yun Ruoleng was amused by his actions, her little head moved in Jun Qingshang''s embrace: "He''s so cute."


    "Cute?" Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes.


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was a little taken aback, how could she have forgotten that this man was jealous?


    Yun Ruoleng hurriedly consoled him by crawling around in his embrace, "I just thought he was adorably silly."


    "Is that so?" Jun Qingshang''s face tensed up, it seemed as if he would rush back to his spear in the next second to settle the score with the phoenix map.


    Yun Ruoleng was very helpless, but he had to comfort her, "I was saying he''s stupid! "What are you angry about?"


    Jun Qingshang snorted, and did not continue with his words. Yun Ruoleng sighed helplessly, and secretly decided that in the future, it would be better to not praise too much, so as to not make things difficult for the other party.


    After Jun Qingshang left for some reason, Yun Ruoleng went back to the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Peach Blossom was not really clear about it in the Duke Palaces. As for An Xiang, this kind of person who went to the Duke Palaces to cause trouble, she was naturally the best gossip source.


    "The first time I went out and heard the rumors, I was so angry that I almost exploded. If not for An Yue pulling me along, I would have went up to tear their mouths apart. An Yue''s face was filled with indignation, her round face was fuming, and she looked very cute.


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but reach out and pinch her little face: "Enough, get to the point."


    "Didn''t the incident last night blow up so much? If Yun Yueyu was locked up, the First Madam would definitely not be able to sit still, so the rumors spread, saying that you and Yun Yueyu were the ones who stole the prince''s face, using any means possible to disfigure Big Sister. Now that Yun Yueyu is recuperating in the palace. "


    An Xiang paused here, his gaze landing on Yun Yueyu, seeing as if she was listening to a story, he continued: "If First Madam arranged for someone to pass on the information, Minister Yun did not care, but felt that this is good as well, as it can cover up Yun Yueyu''s shady matter, and also clean up the matter of your relationship with him."


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose, "Indeed, two birds with one stone, I reckon that it is not only these, there are also many rumors of ugly people committing more monsters, right?"


    "Indeed, but those are all irrelevant. Prince has said that there are two choices made regarding this matter, either that the Regent¡¯s Mansion will interfere directly, or we will hand them over to the Ministry of Justice and you can have your innocence."

 C156

    Yun Ruoleng waved his hand, his arm around Peach Blossom''s neck, and laughed: "Is your young miss really that unbearable?"


    "Nope!" Peach Blush''s face turned slightly red, "My family''s young lady is kind-hearted, understanding and reasonable. She is also a well-known painter that those people are envious of. Which woman would dare to challenge her!"


    "Puff ¡­" Yun Ruoleng immediately burst out laughing, extending his hand and patting Peach Blossom''s shoulder, "I''m not that good."


    "Miss has always been so good!" Peach Red looked up at the sky, unconvinced. She was so cute.


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled, and her delicate face quickly darkened: "Peach Blossom, you missed out a little, your young miss is still a vengeful person."


    "Eh ¡­"


    Peach Blossom An Xiang looked at each other at the same time. She did not understand why Yun Ruoleng thought so highly of her, but when she thought about how a large clan would act against her, she fell silent.


    "I''m sleepy. You guys can leave!" Yun Ruoleng''s two ways were not the same. As for the rumors, they would usually need more rumors to be spread around.


    An Xiang and Tao Hong looked at each other for a moment, then left the room. When they walked out, they even closed the door for Yun Ruoleng.


    Inside the study room, Jun Qingshang was listening to An Ying''s report about what had happened today.


    An Ying cupped his hands: "This subordinate will go see what happened."


    Jun Qingshang slightly nodded, but before An Ying could open the door, the door was suddenly pushed open by a person, and a small and exquisite figure rushed in. An Ying and Jun Qingshang did not even need to think to know who it was.


    An Ying cupped his hands and quickly retreated. He did not want to offend these two ancestors.


    "royal uncle, is Big Sister Yun here?" Jun Rushi lifted her chin, a sweet smile on her childish face, completely ignoring Jun Qingshang''s gloomy little face.


    Jun Qingshang''s handsome face was dripping black, "Did you come just to find her?"


    "That''s right!" Jun Rushi held onto the corner of Jun Qingshang''s clothes with her small hand, "Since royal uncle is free, then accompany me to take a look at her! If the people outside all referred to her as such, then she probably wouldn''t feel good about it. "


    Jun Qingshang coldly swept a glance at the hand which grabbed onto the corner of his clothes, his face ashen. "Your majesty should not have left the palace on his own."


    Jun Rushi pitifully blinked his eyes, and the beautiful beautiful eyes looked at Jun Qingshang with wet eyes: "royal uncle ¡­"


    "Acting cute is useless against This King." Jun Qingshang immediately pushed Jun Rushi away and calmly sat on his seat.


    Jun Rushi squinted her eyes with the beautiful eyes s unique to the Jun Family. "royal uncle is really not honest.


    "What does it have to do with you?" Jun Qingshang glanced at him coldly, feeling that this fellow was here just to cause trouble.


    Jun Rushi stared at Jun Qingshang in grievance: "royal uncle ¡­"


    "Send the Emperor back." Jun Qingshang would definitely not covet for Yun Ruoleng''s people to stay in the Palace, even if the other party was only a child.


    Jun Rushi could no longer pretend to be a child. He immediately became angry: "We were here to look for Big Sister Yun in the first place, you can''t stop us!"


    "Jun Rushi!" Jun Qingshang''s face was ashen. Looking at the little emperor who was pestering him, he stretched out his long arm and pressed him onto his own leg. He then patted his butt a few times without any trace of politeness, "This is this king''s palace! If you continue to make trouble, This King will throw you out! "


    "Don''t ¡­" Jun Rushi held onto his sore butt, feeling extremely aggrieved.


    He, the great Emperor of Heaven''s Initiation, had actually been smacked in the butt by someone, and it was even his own royal uncle. How shameful!


    Wu wu wu ¡­ He did not love the royal uncle anymore!


    "Then go back." Jun Qingshang did not give him the slightest chance, extended his hand, directly lifting Jun Rushi''s collar and walking out, walking to the door and throwing him out, then turning to leave.


    The servants brought in by Jun Rushi outside were used to this kind of farce, when they saw people being thrown out, they caught them steadily.


    Jun Rushi was not injured, but she was angry.


    He did not have the slightest bit of dignity as an emperor!


    "Cough ¡­" Go back to the palace! " Jun Rushi said with a straight face, as though the person that was thrown out was not him.


    Yun Ruoleng was in his own room and did not know what was happening in the study room. He was even less sure that the little Emperor was thrown out by Jun Qingshang because he wanted to find her.


    After she finished meditating, Jun Qingshang still had not returned. He leaned on the bed and gently flipped through a few books.


    After an unknown period of time, he was already fighting with his eyes, but Jun Qingshang still did not come back.


    The next day, when he woke up, there was a small hole beside him. Yun Ruoleng frowned a little gloomily and called Peach Blossom in.


    Tao Hong thought that her young miss was missing Jun Qingshang, and immediately laughed: "Prince came over last night, and saw that you fell asleep, so I went back. They said that they would be eating with Miss at noon, are you going to go into seclusion again today? "


    Yun Ruoleng''s beautiful eyebrows loosened up a little, but she still did not speak. She stood up and allowed Peach Blossom to change her clothes.


    A light blue, wide-sleeved dress took advantage of her jade like skin color to make her appear even more elegant and refined. After dressing up, Yun Ruoleng could not resist her. He could only bring her a raccoon bamboo hat, and that was the only reason why he was able to bring An Xiang to Mo Zhan.


    Entering from the back door of Mo Zhan''s room, Yun Ruoleng and An Xiang directly entered a private room. Zhen Jun came to receive them, seeing that Yun Ruoleng wanted to say something but hesitated.


    "What is it?" Yun Ruoleng took off his bamboo hat, feeling a bit uneasy.


    "Miss, the rumors are so unpleasant to hear. Don''t you want to explain?" Zhen Jun had always been a talkative person, but this was the first time he was showing concern for Yun Ruoleng.


    That''s it? Then why did he put on such a serious face ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng shrugged his shoulders and laughed: "Even if I wanted them to shut up, it would be impossible to do it with their mouths. "Alright, how''s Mo Zhan''s business going?"


    "The same." Zhen Jun handed the red lacquer tray to Yun Ruoleng, "This is your income over the past few months. Also, your income from the embroidery workshop is also here."


    Yun Ruoleng did not flip through the account book. Instead, his fingers slid across the book a few times as the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "Looking at this account, I can tell that I am already a rich little woman. It seems that I have not misjudged the person."


    Zhen Jun cupped his hands in embarrassment, "My lady, you are too kind. I will definitely do my best to help my lady."


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and handed the account book over to An Xiang. He waved his hand and said, "Go and busy yourself first, An Xiang and I will discuss the matter of buying a house."


    "Yes." Zhen Jun cupped his hands towards Yun Ruoleng, and then cupped his hands towards An Xiang before leaving.


    After Zhen Jun left, the smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face disappeared. He casually flipped open a page with his finger and remembered the bill inside: "Have you finished finding the house I told you to?"


    "Yes." An Xiang took out a piece of white paper from his sleeve and placed it on the table. On the white paper, he drew out a few houses at the east side of the city, with red carvings painted on top of them, "These few houses are unique and bright, adding to the fact that they are close to the Regent¡¯s Mansion, you can find your majesty anytime if you need anything."

 C157

    Yun Ruoleng glanced at it but did not answer, because he still had to see if this residence contained spirit energy or not to buy it.


    To her, this was the most important thing.


    An Xiang seemed to have noticed Yun Ruoleng''s hesitation. He pointed to the house closest to the Regent¡¯s Mansion and said: "This subordinate and Zhen Jun have seen this house at the same time. This house has a back to the Regent¡¯s Mansion, but because the spirit energy inside is too pure, everyone considers it a dwelling.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up. She was looking for a place like this, but did not expect someone to send her a pillow the moment she fell asleep.


    Immediately, without saying a word, Yun Ruoleng got up and walked out, and as he left the house he spoke a few words to Zhen Jun, and then without looking back, he left through the main entrance.


    In a place where Yun Ruoleng did not see it, Zhen Jun had witnessed everything.


    Because they were facing away from the Regent¡¯s Mansion, which was equivalent to two residences facing a different street, Yun Ruoleng decided in his heart that in the future, he would expand his Regent¡¯s Mansion and tear down the walls in the middle.


    He did not know if Yun Ruoleng was too happy to be followed, but even An Xiang did not know. When the two of them arrived at the entrance of the house together, they looked at the house with closed eyes.


    An Xiang went forward and knocked on the door, but there was no answer. An Xiang was not anxious, he waited at the door for a long time before opening the door. A thin and weak servant stood at the door listlessly, looking at An Xiang with a slight frown: "Who is this lady looking for?"


    "My Young Miss wants to see your house. May I have a look at the Patriarch?" As a An Ying Guard of the Regent¡¯s Mansion, An Xiang had always been a level higher than others. Her tone of voice wasn''t very good either, but it was already considered polite.


    When the attendant heard that someone wanted to buy the house, he immediately turned around and ran inside.


    An Xiang opened her big, watery eyes, reached out to touch her round face, and muttered: "Am I that scary?"


    "It''s not that you''re scary." Yun Ruoleng comforted her and patted her shoulder, "It''s terrifying to buy this house that is known as the House of Death."


    "Then what should we do?" An Xiang was anxious, if the servant was scared away, how would he be able to go in and buy a house?


    "No rush." Yun Ruoleng''s lips rose, and in a place where An Xiang could not see, a complicated look flashed past her eyes.


    An Xiang was a little upset. Why didn''t he stop the servant just now?


    The passersby all looked at them with a strange expression.


    Fortunately, the servant came out after entering for a short while. He even brought a piece of news with him, "My master said to let you in."


    "Please lead the way." Yun Ruoleng was wearing a bamboo hat, so it was impossible to see what he looked like. The servant was not curious, so he nodded and invited the two in, then closed the door.


    The moment Yun Ruoleng walked into this mansion, it was as if he was stopped in his tracks. Looking at the flowers, grass and trees inside, he felt a sense of unexplainable familiarity.


    When she walked into the main hall, she saw that there was already someone sitting on the seat of honor waiting for her. Seeing Yun Ruoleng walk in, this person''s eyes lit up slightly, but it was concealed for just a moment.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned: "Have I seen Sir from somewhere before?"


    The man was dressed in black robes and there was a knife wound on the right side of his face which made him look especially sinister. A pair of unfathomable hawk eyes stared straight at Yun Ruoleng, as if he was looking at another person through her.


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s question, the man shook his head hesitantly: "No."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, he felt that this person was hiding something from him. From his eyes, it was obvious that they knew each other. No! It should be because he knew the original Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng remembered this matter in his heart and planned to ask Peach Blossom. The man looked at Yun Ruoleng for a long while before speaking, "The lady looks extremely similar to an old friend of mine, and feels as though we''ve met at first sight."


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly, "Then, I am honored."


    The man nodded, then invited Yun Ruoleng: "Miss, are you here to buy the house?"


    "Exactly." Yun Ruoleng sat opposite to him, and pointed outside, "I wonder what the price for this mansion is?"


    The man did not answer and instead looked at the servant standing by the side. The attendant understood and cupped his hands, "This mansion is priceless, it all depends on the reason for whether or not you want to sell it."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, although this house was good, the word "fate" was hard to say, it seemed that she could not purchase this house.


    "The young lady is a witch, it seems that she has some sort of destiny." Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to retreat, the man suddenly said, "If you are able to break through the Spirit Gathering level within half a month, I will give you the mansion."


    "Huh?" Yun Ruoleng looked at the man in shock. It was possible to break through to Spirit Gathering within half a month, since she was already Level 7. It wouldn''t be long before she could break through to Level 8.


    Yun Ruoleng stared at the man and became even more suspicious, the man laughed: "I am only sending off the fated one. But you have to be alive to give it away, don''t you? "


    Yun Ruoleng nodded slightly: "I will keep my word!"


    She didn''t understand why this person was so good to her, but with such a good thing, how could she refuse?


    After Yun Ruoleng agreed, the man started to kick her out.


    Yun Ruoleng did not linger any longer and left the "death house" with An Xiang.


    "Miss, that person is so strange!" This was the first thing An Xiang said after he left the room.


    Yun Ruoleng was wearing a bamboo hat and his expression could not be seen. When he returned to the Duke Palaces, he saw Jun Qingshang waiting for her at the entrance.


    Yun Ruoleng took off the bamboo hat on his head and handed it over to An Xiang who was behind him, then threw himself into Jun Qingshang''s embrace while laughing, with the playfulness of a little girl, he said: "Does Your Highness miss me?"


    "I didn''t bring too many people with me when I went out." Jun Qingshang embraced Yun Ruoleng who was currently in his embrace and lovingly rubbed her head.


    Yun Ruoleng pouted and laughed: "It''s enough to have An Xiang to shop here, it''s not like I need to bring so many people to fight."


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang nodded his head helplessly, this brat truly did not know her place, she actually ran out like that, and was not afraid of anyone going against her.


    Yun Ruoleng really didn''t know what the people outside would do to him, but she told Jun Qingshang about the person she met today. Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly knitted together. "Are you sure?"


    "I''m sure." Yun Ruoleng nodded slightly, her eyebrows knitted together, "I don''t know why, but I feel that that person is very familiar, but I can''t think of where I''ve seen him before."


    Jun Qingshang comforted her and patted her head: "Then next time, find him and ask him about it."


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed her nose, she felt that that person had no way of telling her.

 C158

    Jun Qingshang carried her and walked toward the Water Spirit Pavilion, while walking, he talked to her about the matters of the imperial court: "Yun Shicheng was scolded like a dog by Xuan''er yesterday, I wonder what kind of tricks he''s playing recently."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up. "You said that he wouldn''t continue to plot against me?"


    "You look happy?" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows. Sometimes Yun Ruoleng''s mischievous look was indeed a little cute.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly: "Because I have a way to prevent him from dying. Do you want to hear it?"


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrow, he was curious about what kind of appearance this woman had.


    Yun Ruoleng waved at him, and after Yun Ruoleng lowered his head and whispered a few words into his ear, he smiled like a cute little hamster. Jun Qingshang''s face changed slightly, he shook his head resolutely: "Clear people take care of their own matters, there is no need to interfere in this matter."


    "You don''t believe me?" Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, as if she would immediately turn around and leave the moment Jun Qingshang nodded his head.


    Jun Qingshang was rather helpless, he extended his hand and rubbed her head: "Forget it, as long as you''re happy."


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth lifted slightly as he wrapped his arm around his skinny waist and cupped his hands around his chest: "I knew you wouldn''t reject it."


    In a place where she couldn''t see, Jun Qingshang''s eyes flashed with a trace of killing intent. When he lowered his head to look at Yun Ruoleng, he suddenly softened.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, and the two of them held hands as they started to stroll around the courtyard. The Regent¡¯s Mansion''s courtyard truly did not have any shopping to do, or to be more precise, other than some plants that were growing in the small courtyard, the rest were all trees and non-flowering grass.


    Sometimes, Yun Ruoleng was curious as to how someone managed to turn his own courtyard into such a state.


    "Cough, there aren''t many women in this prince''s mansion." Jun Qingshang had obviously noticed this as well, and her ears turned slightly red as she explained.


    Yun Ruoleng burst out in laughter, "Alright, I''ll help you take care of it in the future."


    The atmosphere was suddenly ambiguous and was slightly tipsy. Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng silently walked for a good while before returning to the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    After eating lunch, Jun Qingshang went back to the study room by himself after coaxing Yun Ruoleng to sleep, and followed Yun Ruoleng''s instructions.


    What Yun Ruoleng said was right, the rumors needed to be covered up using even bigger rumors. Not long after An Ying left, he already returned with the news, that everyone in the streets and alleys had been talking about the Lan family, as if they had forgotten about Yun Ruoleng.


    However, when Yun Ruoleng received this news, it was already close to evening. She had just managed to break through the eighth level of the Spirit Gathering Realm with great difficulty, and her entire body looked like a new person.


    Yun Ruoleng did not know about all this, but at the moment, she felt extremely relaxed, calling out Peach Blossom softly, Peach Blossom walked in, and her eyes lit up when she saw Yun Ruoleng: "Young miss is more beautiful than ever."


    This kind of speech was something that girls would always like to hear, but the only difference was that when Yun Ruoleng heard it, he was puzzled. He reached out to caress his little face and also felt that his skin had become a lot more smooth and his heart was naturally happy.


    "A moment." Peach Blossom put on the clothes for Yun Ruoleng, "Your highness is still busy dealing with things, do you want to go over?"


    Yun Ruoleng thought for a moment, then shook her head. If there was anything that Jun Qingshang wanted to do, she wouldn''t disturb him, so she decided to cultivate to stabilize her realm again. When Jun Qingshang came, Yun Ruoleng had just finished meditating, and the two of them smiled at each other.


    "Ruo Er broke through again?" Jun Qingshang smiled and asked, his tone filled with certainty.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head obediently: "Your Highness''s eyes are bright, I was discovered the moment I levelled up."


    Jun Qingshang smiled faintly but did not reply. His palm slowly moved down from her head and landed on Yun Ruoleng''s face, his sharp fingers brushing across her fair cheeks. "It''s not that this king has good eyes, it''s just that Ruo Er is more beautiful now."


    Yun Ruoleng slapped away the hand that was resting on his face, immediately interrupting the ambiguous atmosphere: "Is everything done?"


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrow, this girl''s serious look was really adorable, he raised his hand and pinched her soft little face: "What reward?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes darkened, and unhappily slapped away the large hand that was on her body: "Speak properly!"


    "This King..."


    "Miss, this is a joyous occasion ¡­ "En..." Tao Hong excitedly ran into the room, and coincidentally interrupted Jun Qingshang''s words. At the same time, she was also quite frightened.


    "What happy occasion?" Yun Ruoleng pushed Jun Qingshang who was in front of him away, and immediately walked towards the direction of Peach Blossom.


    Jun Qingshang helplessly followed behind her, and her cold gaze swept over Peach Blossom. Peach Blossom''s entire body trembled. She subconsciously tightened the clothes on her body and forced out the corners of her mouth, "The people outside are all saying that the Lan House and Minister¡¯s Mansion have acted inappropriately. But yours, it''s just that there''s no trace of you at all."


    Hearing that, Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang, seeing him nod his head slightly, he smiled.


    Exactly, if he did as she said, the rumors and stuff would not be a problem.


    The agreement with the man in black was about to arrive. The capital city was bustling with noise and excitement. The streets and alleys were filled with people, and the teahouses and taverns were filled with people.


    "Little brother, what are you doing?" Yun Ruoleng used his raccoon hat to block her peerless appearance, but her gentle voice was still enough to make one''s imagination run wild.


    "Ai, don''t you know? It is said that our President is setting up a stage for his eldest daughter and is preparing to throw a ball of embroidery!"


    "There''s no need for so many people to watch, is there?" Yun Ruoleng chuckled, he felt that Yun Shicheng was extremely interesting. If the person chosen knew that Yun Yueyu was not a virgin, how would he settle this?


    But when they heard his words, they became different. The man turned to look at Yun Ruoleng: "Young miss, you must be jealous! This young lady from Minister¡¯s Mansion is the precious daughter of Master Shang Shu, moreover she is a witch, and is one of the rare beauties, who doesn''t like her? "


    Yun Ruoleng did not reply, he looked at the stage through the fabric. Yun Yueyu wanted to take the bride? Then shouldn''t she give big sister a big present?


    An Xiang, who was behind them, looked at the man in disdain. Yun Yueyu was a snake and scorpion woman who was good at camouflage, how could her young miss be jealous?


    Besides, what was stronger than Yun Yueyu''s young miss?


    Of course. No one would believe him even if he said it out loud. An Xiang directly curled his lips and pretended that nothing had happened. Yun Ruoleng looked at it, and then turned and walked back to her house of death, An Xiang quickly followed behind her, because there were so many people, she was afraid that she would lose them.


    Yun Ruoleng immediately entered the death house, the man was still dressed in black robes, but the difference was, the servant seemed to be more courteous to Yun Ruoleng, the moment he saw Yun Ruoleng, he immediately led him into the courtyard and closed the door.

 C159

    After entering the hall, the eagle eyes of the black clothed man narrowed, and then laughed out loud: "Not bad, not bad, you actually broke through level 2 in half a month."


    Yun Ruoleng took off the conical hat on his head, revealing his exceptional appearance. The attendant took a deep breath, pointed at Yun Ruoleng''s face and exclaimed in surprise, "You ¡­"


    "Lu Feng!" Do not be presumptuous! " The man in black interrupted the servant with a glance of his eagle-like eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, why does this servant have such a weird expression? Usually, those who saw this face for the first time would show a look of amazement instead of surprise.


    Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes flickered, concealing all of her emotions. She looked up, and her bright eyes stared at the black robed man: "Now that I''m at Spirit Gathering level 9, I''m about to become a Spirit Master. Does this house mister wish to sell it to me?"


    "Naturally." The man in black took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and placed it on the small table. "I said before that this mansion doesn''t need money. You only need to break through to the ninth level. Now that Miss has broken through to the ninth level, I should fulfill my promise, right?"


    "One cannot accept without merit." Yun Ruoleng did not accept the house deed, but instead took out a stack of gold notes from his sleeves, "This house has a large space, adding on to it has an extremely pure Spirit Qi, ordinary people would not dare take it, but I do want it, so the price will naturally be higher."


    "Miss doesn''t need to feel indebted to me." The man''s eyes landed on the gold note in Yun Ruoleng''s hand, then suddenly smiled at her: "I naturally have a request, that''s why I''m willing to give you the old mansion."


    Yun Ruoleng was startled: "What does mister want to say?"


    "It''s nothing, this mansion only gives you a third of the place, the rest are only allowed to advance one third after you enter the fifth rank." The man raised an eyebrow and continued, "When you enter the king level, you can enter and leave the courtyard as you wish."


    "Why?" Yun Ruoleng increasingly could not understand what this man meant. Furthermore, this man seemed to have something to hide from her, so she was unable to tell.


    The man''s fingers gripped the house deed, and the corners of his mouth curled up. The scar on his face looked extremely strange, "You''ll know in the future. You just need to remember that I won''t harm you."


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, then extended his hand and opened the room contract, "I do not know you, why are you being so nice to me? If there''s no intention, then there must be a reason, right? "


    "You and her are really alike." The man didn''t get angry. Instead, he chuckled and put the deed back onto the table, "Lu Feng, bring a cup of Qu Ling tea for the young lady. "This young lady has a short temper. How about we have some tea and have a chat?"


    Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly, the two times that she came, she did not ask anyone to prepare tea, but the way she prepared it this time was a little strange, and An Xiang worriedly pulled on her sleeves.


    Yun Ruoleng turned his head and gave her a comforting look. When he saw the black-robed man once again, his face darkened, "Who are you?"


    "Easier said than done." The black clothed man unhurriedly spat out these two words, and his gaze landed on An Xiang''s body.


    Disguise? Yun Ruoleng looked at the man innocently. His name was really strange ¡­


    "Easier said than done, the appearance of the face." The man seemed to know Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts, and explained while chuckling.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, he seemed to understand the situation now, but the way the man looked at Yun Ruoleng had changed slightly: "You are Yun Ruoleng right?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression darkened slightly. "How do you know?"


    Lu Feng walked in with two cups of tea and respectfully placed it in front of Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng, however, was impolite, and when he held the tea and took a whiff, a refreshing fragrance wafted over, followed by a faint Spirit Qi. It was probably because of this Spirit Qi, that Qu Ling Tea was named!


    Yun Ruoleng liked the smell of the tea very much.


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng liked her, Yi Lian looked towards Lu Feng. Lu Feng understood and hurriedly said with a smile, "If Miss likes it, this subordinate still has more tea leaves. Why don''t you get your servant girl to go with this subordinate and teach her how to make this tea?"


    An Xiang frowned in displeasure. This tea truly did not have Regent¡¯s Mansion, it did not even have the entire Heavenly Awakening Realm, but she had never brewed this tea before.


    Yun Ruoleng naturally knew of An Xiang''s capabilities, and did not force her, standing quietly where he was, waiting for her reply.


    Lu Feng saw that An Xiang had a look of unwillingness on his face, and ignored the difference between males and females. He extended his hand and dragged An Xiang out, while talking about the things that happened in the courtyard.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned: "What do you mean by that, Sir?"


    "Qu Ling Tea has the ability to replenish spiritual energy, as a witch it is an essential tea." Yi Rong replied with a smile as if she didn''t understand Yun Ruoleng''s question.


    Yun Ruoleng was not stupid. After Lu Feng brought An Xiang away, she felt that this man had something to say to her, but he acted like he was trying to solve a mystery. After he finished speaking the first part of the sentence, he did not speak anymore.


    After staying in the dead quarters for the afternoon, she felt completely exhausted. After returning to the Water Spirit Pavilion, she laid on the bed and fell asleep.


    An Xiang stood guard at the door with a dark expression, he decided to tell everyone about this the moment he saw his master.


    Yun Ruoleng did not know what she was thinking, but at the moment, Yun Ruoleng was deep in sleep, unable to differentiate where he was. Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar twenty-first century, Yun Ruoleng was at a loss, not knowing where he should go.


    After Jun Qingshang finished his business, he heard that Yun Ruoleng''s mental state was not very good after he returned, so he went to the Water Spirit Pavilion to look at her. An Xiang, who was at the door, pounced on her like a puppy seeing its owner: "Master, the Miss went to the next door and even talked to that weird man alone for a while."


    Next door? Jun Qingshang frowned, the dead house was as strange as its name made it out to be, it was known as the capital''s dead house, because that place was filled with dense spirit energy, and it was pure spirit energy, ordinary people could not bear it, but the owner of the house had never seen it before, and people said that there was no one there, because no one had come out from that house in all these years.


    Jun Qingshang was surprised that not only had Yun Ruoleng gone in, he had also returned. The other party had even gifted her a third of the house, as if this person had been waiting for her all this time.


    Jun Qingshang was even more confused, but no one gave him an answer, so he just pushed open the door and entered the room.


    Jun Qingshang walked into the room just in time to see a pale Yun Ruoleng lying on the bed, as if he was muttering something. Jun Qingshang frowned, he quickly walked to the bed and extended his hand out to her forehead, and discovered that she was not feverish, and heaved a sigh of relief.


    "Ruo Er?" Jun Qingshang gently shook her, but Yun Ruoleng did not have the slightest reaction. Jun Qingshang''s brows furrowed even more tightly, and the strength in his hands increased greatly. "Ruo Er!"

 C160

    Yun Ruoleng still did not react as his heart tightened.


    And at this moment, Yun Ruoleng''s senses were sealed, she could not hear anything at all. Looking at the familiar figure in front of her, she silently hid herself in a corner. She really wanted to go out, but unfortunately she could not.


    Like the glass panes in the zoo, they could be seen but not rushed in.


    "Ruo Er!"


    Yun Ruoleng looked around in confusion. She was already familiar with this voice, but where was he? Yun Ruoleng used the wall to support himself as he slowly stood up, he looked around and did not find any place to go.


    Yun Ruoleng started to become anxious, she suddenly realised that she had entered a nightmare and did not know how to go out.


    Suddenly, an idea flashed through Yun Ruoleng''s mind, she quickly sat cross-legged, her hands formed a seal, and a golden Spirit Qi surged out from her body. She did not know how long she sat for, but she felt a "weng" sound in her mind, and she suddenly opened her eyes.


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng suddenly realised something, he reached out and pinched his face that was extremely worried: "I''ve broken through from Spirit Gathering to Spirit Master."


    Jun Qingshang reached out to grab the little demon''s hand that was on his face, but his worried expression was not brushed off. "Did you know how scary that was just now? I shouldn''t have called you, but luckily you woke up. "


    Was it that scary? Yun Ruoleng did not know of her previous situation, but she was still immersed in the joy of levelling up.


    He was caught off guard by his advancement, it really made him ¡­ Delight!


    Yun Ruoleng''s smile was even more dazzling than a flower.


    Yun Ruoleng stayed at the Regent¡¯s Mansion for more than half a month, and finally found the house she wanted. Naturally, she wouldn''t stay here for the time being, even if they had an engagement, she wouldn''t dare to stay here too openly, so for the sake of Yun Ruoleng''s reputation, Jun Qingshang packed everything up early in the morning and sent her to her death quarters.


    "You''re really going?" Jun Qingshang stood at the doorway, holding onto Yun Ruoleng''s soft and small boneless hand, she unwillingly raised her brows.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, of course she would go, this place would be her mother''s house from now on, she naturally had to take care of it.


    Jun Qingshang helplessly rubbed her fluffy little head, and as his gaze fell on her dead quarters, he unconsciously lowered his head. "If you''re not used to it, then come back, after all, you won''t be able to live in this place for long."


    Yun Ruoleng casually nodded her head. Although this place was not as prosperous as Regent¡¯s Mansion, it gave her a strange feeling of familiarity. There was a reason why Yun Ruoleng wanted to stay behind, and this reason caused her and Jun Qingshang to separate for a short period of time.


    Because the spirit energy here was too dense, Jun Qingshang sent Yun Ruoleng to the garden in the residence and did not dare to go further inside. The dense spirit energy assaulted his face, and no matter how strong he was, he could not resist.


    And here, even Long Yu was useless.


    Yun Ruoleng also noticed this problem, and turned to look at Lu Feng who was leading the way: "There''s only the two of you in this courtyard?"


    "Right." Lu Feng hesitated and nodded, "Because Spiritual Qi is harmful to the human body, so no one would dare to go deeper."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded slightly, he turned and shrugged at Jun Qingshang: "This place seems to be the source of all spirit energy, Dragon Jade doesn''t seem to be able to suppress it."


    Jun Qingshang glared at her: "Then you seem to be very happy?"


    Yun Ruoleng cleared his throat, "Where''s that? They''re just telling you the truth. "


    In reality, Jun Qingshang was not able to get close to Yun Ruoleng during this period of time. When he thought of this, Jun Qingshang''s handsome face turned ashen as he coldly looked at Lu Feng.


    Lu Feng was so innocent that he couldn''t make heads or tails of what was happening. He could only rub his nose awkwardly and continue walking forward.


    Yun Ruoleng said as he pulled Jun Qingshang''s arm. "Enough, don''t be angry. It''s less than ten days since our wedding. We should have separated, shouldn''t we? " In order to coax Jun Qingshang, Yun Ruoleng even brought out these ancient customs.


    Jun Qingshang had always disliked etiquette, but this time, he was willing to spend time together with them. Even if he did not believe it, it had actually turned into trust, and under Yun Ruoleng''s consolation, he left the death house.


    Without the low pressure, it was much easier to live in a dead house. Yun Ruoleng ordered people to move the dowry Zhen Jun had prepared for the marriage to a courtyard near the entrance. She brought Lu Feng and stood at the entrance, watching as Yun Ruoleng went in and out of the house.


    Because there were not many things around, adding to that Zhen Jun was afraid that the environment would affect everyone''s bodies, most of the things had not been taken care of, Yun Ruoleng was not in a rush, but with the young miss coming out, there were a few stewards helping from inside and outside, she did not know what was needed, so she just threw it over to them.


    It was not that easy to be the regent''s consort, and on the second day that Yun Ruoleng moved to his death quarters, three nanny s came to the palace.


    One was the Ocean nanny by the empress dowager''s side. He had a smile on his face and looked like a kind person. The other two were the nanny s who specialized in teaching elegant etiquette in the palace. The three nanny s were very surprised when they arrived at the death house, because there was a stifling atmosphere here that made the three of them feel uncomfortable.


    "The three of you should stay with your subordinates and Xin Yuan!" An Xiang knew the reason why they were unwell, the auras in the courtyard were the richest when Yun Ruoleng found them. Under normal circumstances, they would not dare to enter, and the moment the three of them went in, they would definitely feel it.


    "This ¡­" The Ocean nanny looked at Yun Ruoleng with some hesitation. After all, his master hadn''t spoken a word, so it was only natural that a servant like An Xiang would say more.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded her head: "It''s because my thoughts weren''t thorough enough, this courtyard really isn''t a good place. The three nanny s, please follow her."


    After looking at Yun Ruoleng for a while, he nodded slightly. He turned around, picked up his bag, and followed An Xiang out.


    Waiting until everyone had left, Yun Ruoleng''s face slightly sunk. He felt that marrying Jun Qingshang was really too troublesome, and he didn''t even know what to do with his etiquette to the nanny.


    However, the truth was not like that, and the reason why Yun Ruoleng was worried was because the nanny s inside the television were like that.


    In the morning, they would wake up and begin learning how to sit, stand, serve tea, walk, etc. At noon, they would rest, and at noon, they would not cultivate. At noon, they would take a bath, and at noon, they would soak themselves in the flower petals for an hour.


    "nanny, is it okay if you don''t soak in this?" Yun Ruoleng''s face darkened when he saw the bucket of flowers.


    Sea nanny laughed lightly: "That won''t do, long-term soaks will make your skin soft, and there will be a faint fragrance of flowers. Princess, you just have to rest assured, this servant will not harm you."


    Yun Ruoleng was speechless, at that moment she finally understood how the so called Xiang Fei came about, it was just that it was a pity that the big pail of flower petals had been destroyed.

 C161

    Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded his head, and then slightly blessed Jun Jingrong and Big Sima Yang Zhen. "Leng Er is unfilial and cannot stay by my foster father''s side for long.


    "You little girl!" Yun Ruoleng walked up to her, and with one hand, she grabbed onto Yun Ruoleng''s soft and small hand, while the other hand took off the bracelet on her wrist and placed it on Yun Ruoleng''s wrist. "This was given to me by the empress dowager when I was married, and it has a very beautiful meaning.


    "Thank you, godmother." Yun Ruoleng was impolite and blessed.


    Yi Rong suddenly opened her mouth and said, "I also have something for you. It''s just that this thing will only open after a certain period of time. "


    Yun Ruoleng turned his head around, and his gaze fell upon the light smile on his lips. His gaze slowly moved downwards, until it landed on a strange wooden box in his hands.


    "No need." Yi Rong replied indifferently and passed the box to Cui Ying who was behind Yun Ruoleng.


    Cui Ying received it and slightly frowned. However, this small box seemed to be extremely heavy.


    After a series of farewells, three young men poured in from the entrance. Yun Ruoleng looked at the three elegantly dressed men with a clear and elegant countenance. Yang Ziling stepped forward and pointed at the person in the middle, "This is third brother, Yang Fan. Second brother, Yang Ping. Elder brother, Yang Xiong."


    Yun Ruoleng bowed to each and every one of them, but Yang Fan took a step forward and stopped her actions.


    "Be careful of the prince peeling your skin." Yang Fan''s pair of beautiful eyes were pulled away by Yang Xiong as soon as he picked them up.


    "How could that be!" Yang Fan stared at his elder brother in disbelief. Yang Ping helplessly shook his head, ignoring their voices, he walked up and cupped his hands, "You need your elder brother''s back when you get on the palanquin. Has little sister decided who to carry?"


    "Second Brother, you are shameless!" Yang Fan pulled Yang Ping who was standing in front of Yun Ruoleng, "Little sister, how about I carry you?"


    "I''m strong, I''m carrying it on my back."


    "I won''t throw her." The two brothers, Yang Fan and Yang Xiong, seemed to be enemies with each other. The bickering between the two was extremely lively.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the two of them with a head full of black lines, then turned around and glanced at the Great Sima couple who were conversing. It was as if they had long gotten used to this kind of lifestyle.


    Yun Ruoleng silently sighed in his heart, the personalities of these three brothers were really different.


    Yang Zi Ling was dragged along with her older brother as she separated the two of them. She said with disdain, "This is so noisy!" Can''t you be more quiet? "


    "Sister!"


    "Humph!" Yang Fan looked pitifully at the disdainful expression on his little sister''s face, and felt his heart break.


    Yang Xiong gently rubbed Yang Ziling''s head and said, "I''ll listen to you."


    "Big brother is the best." Yang Ziling quickly let her third brother throw himself into her big brother''s embrace.


    Yun Ruoleng and Yang Ping looked at each other and laughed. After Yun Ruoleng finally decided that Yang Ping would carry her out of the mansion, they started to sit and wait for the wedding procession.


    Seeing that he was not going to play around with Yun Ruoleng, Yang Fan decided to drag his brother to stand guard at the entrance and take Jun Qingshang down one last time. After all, a scheming guy like Jun Qingshang would never cheat him under normal circumstances.


    Regent¡¯s Mansion, Jun Qingshang sat on the white Wind Chasing Horse in a red robe, the horse seemed to have felt its master''s happy mood and muttered to itself. It then shook its head fawningly, with the fiery red silk flowers tied around its neck, the horse''s mood seemed to have gotten even better.


    "Your highness, go and bring the little beauty back, I''ll wait for you here." Feng Tu stood at the Regent¡¯s Mansion entrance and waved his hand towards Jun Qingshang, looking carefree.


    Jun Qingshang coldly glanced at him, and without saying a word, he rode his horse and left. The dowry for the wedding was extremely rich, and was much heavier compared to other princes and concubines. The number of gifts the dowry required was usually seventy-two, and Jun Qingshang was no exception. From this, one could see how much the regent valued this consort.


    However, when he arrived at the entrance of the death house and looked at the tightly shut door, the originally smiling Jun Qingshang''s face instantly darkened.


    "An Ying!"


    "Mistress, this is ¡­"


    "Knock on the door!" Jun Qingshang glared at An Ying snappily. He wasn''t stupid, so he naturally knew this was a rule. It was just that he really wanted to know who was so daring to actually block the door.


    In fact, An Ying was very clear on the situation behind the door, it seemed like the brothers of the Yang family were going to suffer a loss. An Ying silently prayed for them for a second, then got down from the horse and walked over to the door and knocked.


    "There''s no use in knocking, just give me a red packet first." Without doing anything, he would die. This Yang Fan really did not know Jun Qingshang''s temperament, so An Ying bit the bullet and glanced at his master, which made Jun Qingshang nod his head in satisfaction.


    An Ying took out three red packets from his sleeve and stuffed them in, but the door was still not opened. An Ying panicked: "Third Young Master, if you still don''t open the door, the Duke is really angry, you will know the consequences."


    Yang Fan''s heart tightened, but he quickly suppressed the fear in his heart. He softly snorted, "The rules can''t be broken just because he''s a prince."


    An Ying felt that all his prayers just now were wrong.


    Just as An Ying was thinking of a way to open the door, Jun Qingshang had already dismounted. He coldly swept his gaze over the tightly shut door, placed his hand on it, and used his inner force to directly blast the door open.


    You ¡­" Yang Fan was so frightened that his face turned deathly pale. Yang Xiong, who was standing not too far away watching the show, was also startled. Before he could say anything, Jun Qingyuan had already walked through the manor''s entrance with a cold aura.


    "Do your best." As the elder brother, Yang Xiong comforted him by patting his shoulder and quickly followed.


    When the wedding procession arrived, Yun Ruoleng and Yang Zi Ling returned to the Spirit Purity Pavilion. Jun Jingrong and Yang Zhen both went to welcome Jun Qingshang, but did not expect Jun Qingshang to directly avoid them and walk towards the Spirit Purity Pavilion. Jun Jingrong was startled and immediately stopped him, "I can''t, it''s unlucky for you to go in like this. Besides, you shouldn''t be in a rush for a while, right?"


    Jun Qingshang coldly swept a glance at Jun Jingrong, his footsteps stopped for a moment and he did not continue to walk forward, but his face darkened in the next second, because he saw Yang Ping carrying a body covered in fiery red wedding clothes, walking towards him.


    Jun Qingshang directly ignored Jun Jingrong''s obstruction and went forward to stop Yang Ping. Without waiting for him to regain his senses, he carried Yun Ruoleng and walked out. Jun Jingrong regained her senses, where had she seen Jun Qingshang?


    Yang Ping rubbed his nose, "Mother, let''s go to Regent¡¯s Mansion."


    Since Yun Ruoleng''s situation was special, the banquet would be held in Regent¡¯s Mansion. Under the reminder of her second son, Jun Jingrong brought her husband and children to Regent¡¯s Mansion along the wedding procession.

 C162

    The matter of Jun Qingshang being carried into the bridal sedan instantly spread throughout the entire capital. Women were jealous and envious, but men were disdainful. They felt that if they continued to spoil women like this, sooner or later, they would be dragged away by women.


    Jun Qingshang did not care about what they thought at all, after bringing her into the bridal sedan, he quickly left. Riding his Wind Chaser, he waved: "Return!"


    With that sentence, Yun Ruoleng brought out his dowry from the manor. Compared to what Jun Qingshang had given him, Yun Ruoleng''s dowry was not inferior in any way, as all sorts of good things could be found there. Some were things that Zhen Jun Tao Bao had found, while others were things that Jun Jingrong had filled in.


    When the palanquin stopped at the Regent¡¯s Mansion''s entrance, the servant brought a bow and arrow to Jun Qingshang, but Jun Qingshang rejected it immediately: "This king''s wife is going hand in hand with this king, she is not going to be used as a vase."


    Her words caused a stir everywhere, although Yun Ruoleng could not see what was happening outside, but she could hear what she was saying, and the smile on her lips became even wider. Immediately after, Jun Qingshang did something that no one could understand.


    The wedding nanny said that the groom would kick the palanquin, but Jun Qingshang immediately lifted the curtain and went in to carry Yun Ruoleng out. Yun Ruoleng put his hand on Jun Qingshang''s shoulder and poked his chest with his finger, and muttered: "If you don''t comply with the rules like this, the imperial court will have to explain itself again."


    Jun Qingshang did not answer and tightened the grip on his arm that was holding Yun Ruoleng, and directly went across the brazier. The usually cold and handsome Regent revealed a side of him that was addicted to his wife, which no one present could accept, but it did not go against the rules.


    The wedding hall was set up in the main hall and there were even higher officials watching the ceremony. Jun Qingshang carried Yun Ruoleng and walked all the way to the wedding hall, only then did he put the person down and clasped his hands at the empress dowager. "Mother, you can begin."


    The empress dowager''s gaze swept across Jun Qingshang, and she gave an obviously unhappy snort. Jun Jingrong walked over to the side of the seat of honor and sat down, extending her hand to comfort the empress dowager. "Young people have different opinions.


    "Forget it!" The empress dowager shook her head, but secretly sighed. Jun Jingrong was right, she still didn''t know what kind of person Jun Qingshang was.


    Jun Jingrong smiled and turned around to nod at the master of ceremonies. The host chuckled as he understood: "I bow to the heavens and the earth!"


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, looking through the red head, he could vaguely see Jun Qingshang''s happy expression, his handsome face no longer had his usual coldness.


    From now on, she would be his wife. This was something that Yun Ruoleng had never imagined would happen.


    Yun Ruoleng could not help but be shocked, the red rope in her hand was gently pulled, causing her to regain her senses, as she heard the master of ceremonies shouting "Second bow to the High Hall", her eyes involuntarily turning red.


    After bowing to the empress dowager, it was followed by a couple bowing to each other. A joyous red color appeared in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, bringing about a joyful aura.


    After he finished bowing and greeting, Yun Ruoleng had just stood up when he suddenly turned around. His entire person had already been carried by Jun Qingshang, and he called out softly, "Hey, Jun Qingshang, what are you doing!"


    How could he be so anxious?


    But Jun Qingshang acted as if he did not feel it, laughed, and left while carrying her.


    There was an uproar behind him, but no one dared to question Jun Qingshang''s decision, so they could only look at each other and give up.


    "Look at how worried seventh brother is." Jun Qingling laughed softly, warming up the previously frozen atmosphere. Although the empress dowager didn''t say anything, her complexion wasn''t too good either.


    When Jun Jingrong saw that Yun Ruoleng would not be troubled by the empress dowager, she immediately smiled and said, "Your highness really does care about that little girl, but that little girl also blames her for being pitiable. If she wasn''t smart, she would have already been bullied by others."


    When the empress dowager thought of the matters between the Lan and Yun Families, her attitude towards Yun Ruoleng improved by a lot. She nodded slightly. Now that the empress dowager knew, Jun Qingshang was the only person left in his heart.


    Jun Qingshang directly brought Yun Ruoleng into the Water Spirit Pavilion, which he had prepared for her in the courtyard, which was also their wedding room. After placing Yun Ruoleng on the bed, the wedding nanny quickly brought up a scale: "Putting aside the hood, it means to fulfil your wishes!"


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth lifted slightly, and used a weighing rod to move away the red veil. A beautiful and exquisite face appeared in front of him, causing the wedding nanny''s expression to freeze, and in the next second, she chuckled. "The wangfei is as beautiful as a fairy.


    Yun Ruoleng lowered her head and smiled. Her bashful expression made Jun Qingshang feel really good, and just as she was about to urge him to leave, the wedding nanny brought him another bowl of dumplings, "Consort Wang hasn''t eaten anything in a long time, eat something to fill your stomach up."


    Yun Ruoleng did not hold back, he picked up the chopsticks from the red lacquer tray, picked up a dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth, then, suddenly ¡­


    "Bah!" Yun Ruoleng spat out the dumplings that he had bitten into his mouth. Jun Qingshang frowned, but just as he was about to ask what happened, he was interrupted by the wedding nanny: "Are you not born yet?"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng then remembered the meaning of the dumpling, and laughed as he nodded his head.


    Jun Qingshang''s handsome face instantly darkened, "How dare you feed it to her!"


    "Your Highness, don''t worry. The wangfei is talking about birth!" The wedding nanny pushed Jun Qingshang, who had a stupefied look, to the side.


    "Cough!" Jun Qingshang coughed lightly. When he saw the teasing look in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, he felt even more embarrassed.


    Very quickly, the wedding nanny left many blessings and left with a group of people. Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng were the only ones left in the room.


    Yun Ruoleng lowered his head, thinking about something unknown.


    Jun Qingshang walked to the table and brought a plate of red date cake in front of Yun Ruoleng: "You woke up early in the morning, eat something to rest your stomach on."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, her phoenix-like eyes curved, "Alright, you go and accompany the guests first. "I''m fine."


    With eyes full of laughter, Jun Qingshang lovingly pinched her rosy cheeks: "Alright, if you''re bored, then let Peach Blossom and the others accompany you."


    Yun Ruoleng''s cute and bashful look made Jun Qingshang reluctant to leave, and he turned his head and walked out of the room.


    Peach Blossom and Cui Ying looked at each other and smiled, then turned and entered the room.


    "Miss, are you hungry?" The moment Peach Blossom entered, she saw Yun Ruoleng with a plate of pastries in a daze, and could not help but tease: "The prince was reluctant to part with it, but the young miss was already distracted."


    Yun Ruoleng rebuked while glaring at her, "Go and find me something to eat already."


    Peach Red stuck out her tongue playfully, then turned and walked out. Cui Ying''s gaze landed on the pastries in Yun Ruoleng''s hands and laughed lightly: "The prince treats the young miss so well. The third young miss will definitely be happy for the young miss. "


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng held tightly onto the plate, waiting for the wedding to end and ask for confirmation on a matter.

 C163

    The Little Emperor was not allowed to drink wine, but he was also not afraid of death. Carrying a cup of purple sage, he ran over to Jun Qingshang and raised his cup while grinning: "royal uncle, give me some face."


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows. His handsome face was a little red from drinking, and his smile could practically overturn all living things. "If you exchange this cup for wine, this king will give the emperor this face."


    Jun Rushi snorted lightly, he was not one to be fooled: "No way, if royal uncle doesn''t drink, we will definitely stir up a ruckus tonight."


    Jun Qingshang was in a good mood today, so he did not say much.


    Since the emperor had already joined, as a official, naturally, no one dared to be behind him. They hurriedly toasted Jun Qingshang, who was immediately overjoyed and did not refuse anyone who came. If An Ying had not helped him block a little, he would probably only be able to go back to his room to sleep tonight.


    When Jun Qingshang returned to the wedding room, he ordered that no matter what happened within the Water Spirit Pavilion, no one was to be allowed to enter. The door An Ying was guarding was truly airtight. With the Water Spirit Pavilion s closed, not even a fly could fly in. Jun Rushi came over once, and he was rejected by An Xiang.


    "How dare you!" Jun Rushi stared at An Xiang angrily, "You dare to block our way?"


    "Your Majesty, your subordinate doesn''t dare to disobey the orders of the Prince." An Xiang was not afraid of this little emperor. To be more precise, An Xiang felt that this little emperor had no power at all.


    The little emperor was instantly discouraged. He coldly snorted and turned around to leave. Who would have thought that the people he was bringing today would be no match for these people?


    And at this moment, within the Water Spirit Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng looked at the unmoving Jun Qingshang lying on the bed, and frowned slightly: "If you don''t get up, I''ll leave."


    Jun Qingshang''s narrow and long phoenix eyes were slightly opened, and her exquisite face under the light was slightly red, making her look even more captivating.


    Yun Ruoleng scoffed slightly, "How much did you drink?"


    Jun Qingshang sat up from the bed, his face gradually brimming with a smile: "I didn''t drink much, but today I''ve been tricked by the Phoenix Diagram as soon as I was happy."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at him with half believing and half doubting eyes. It wasn''t quite possible. Jun Qingshang extended his arm and pulled Yun Ruoleng who was sitting on the edge of the bed into his embrace, then turned and pressed him down on her: "Ruo Er?"


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. Looking at his gaze which was flashing with a dangerous aura, his entire body subconsciously tensed up. "If you''re tired from a day''s work, why don''t you take a bath first?"


    Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly lifted, his gaze slowly moving down her face, and landed on her slightly opened lips. His gaze darkened, and not waiting for Yun Ruoleng to speak, it had already blocked her pink lips.


    "Ugh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s entire body tensed up, he wanted to push the person on top of him away, but he discovered that he could not move her at all. Not only did he not push her, he even strengthened his ambitions.


    Jun Qingshang continuously tried to attack Yun Ruoleng''s defense line, in order to be honest with him, but Yun Ruoleng was suddenly shocked and immediately regained his senses. He forcefully pushed the man who was lying on her neck away and said, "Jun Qingshang, it''s stinky."


    Jun Qingshang looked up in displeasure, and his gaze sank slightly. "What did you call me just now?"


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng looked at him in astonishment, and in the next moment, Jun Qingshang unhappily bit down on her again. Yun Ruoleng reflexively pushed his head away with a slap, and said while gnashing his teeth word by word, "Your Highness, am I supposed to bathe you?"


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth twitched, and only after looking at her for a long while did he unwillingly stand up from her body.


    Yun Ruoleng quickly pulled up her scattered clothes, pouted her pink lips, and looked at him with a somewhat resentful expression: "Isn''t there a spirit spring water behind? Shall we go there? "


    The Spirit Spring Water was a warm spring water that contained a weak Spirit Qi that could strengthen the body and repair wounds. Yun Ruoleng liked to run towards it when he had nothing to do.


    Jun Qingshang looked deeply at Yun Ruoleng, and in a place where she couldn''t see, the corner of her mouth unconsciously raised in a curve.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t know what Jun Qingshang was planning, if he knew, he definitely wouldn''t go with him. Jun Qingshang put a hand on Yun Ruoleng''s shoulder and pulled her into his embrace, then hugged her as he walked back with the spirit spring water.


    Pushing open the door of the Dark Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng felt a warm feeling of spirit energy pouncing on her, and every cell in her body was recklessly absorbing the spiritual energy. Yun Ruoleng let out a comfortable cry as the corner of her mouth slightly lifted, and her beautiful little face looked extremely alluring through the faint pink color.


    Jun Qingshang''s adam''s apple rolled, and the hand that was holding her subconsciously tightened, as he breathed sinisterly into Yun Ruoleng''s ear: "Love concubine, serve this king while I change."


    "Your Highness, I can just watch you." The smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face grew wider and wider, and he reached out to push Jun Qingshang''s waist with all his might. After a whole day of tossing and turning, even though Jun Qingshang didn''t smell bad, he was still sweating profusely.


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly as he turned to look at her. He shook his head helplessly, walked to the side and started to undress as if he had not seen anything. Yun Ruoleng shyly turned his face away.


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng dare to look straight at him. The two of them looked at each other without speaking for a long time, and after a long while, Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes raised his hand slightly: "How about you help me rub my back?"


    Yun Ruoleng originally wanted to reject them, but when he thought that the two of them were already married, escaping was already very unreasonable, so he did not think too much into it, walked over to Jun Qingshang''s back and started to rub it. A light flashed in Jun Qingshang''s eyes as the corner of his mouth curled slightly. Since she wasn''t paying attention, he grabbed her hand and pulled her away, directly pulling her into the spirit spring.


    Yun Ruoleng choked on the water, her white lotus-like arms wrapped around Jun Qingshang''s neck as she blushed: "Are you planning to murder me?"


    "Tonight is our wedding night, isn''t it a bit unlucky to talk about murder?" With one hand on her perky butt and the other around her small and perky waist, Jun Qingshang raised an eyebrow with an evil and evil air.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face blushed a little as she buried her shy face in Jun Qingshang''s neck. "I''m still young, it''s not the time for me to get pregnant."


    Jun Qingshang''s face sunk down bit by bit, his eyes became bottomless, Yun Ruoleng''s breath came out, this person can''t be angry, right?


    "Small?" Jun Qingshang said faintly, "A girl your age already has one or two children, how are you young?"


    "No ¡­" Yun Ruoleng didn''t know how to explain this matter to him in an instant. He couldn''t possibly tell him the thoughts of the twenty-first century, right? But if he didn''t say it, he wouldn''t be able to explain it.


    "Are you trying to think of a way to reject Ben Wang?" Jun Qingshang deliberately said with a cold face.

 C164

    Jun Qingshang''s strength had increased by a lot. Yun Ruoleng only felt his waist tighten, as if it was going to be embedded into his body in the next second. Her small hand pushed against his chest''s hard muscles: "No, listen to my explanation okay?"


    Seeing Jun Qingshang snort lightly, Yun Ruoleng decided to listen, and took the chance to guide Jun Qingshang from a medical point of view.


    "A woman''s early pregnancy will affect her fetus, as well as her body." Yun Ruoleng stretched out her hand to straighten his face, "Why are so many newlyweds giving birth prematurely or giving birth hard? It''s mostly because he''s too young. "


    Jun Qingshang squinted but the bottom of his heart still believed it. After being silent for a while, he carried Yun Ruoleng to the shore, and then placed her on the small bed at the side. "Change your wet clothes, we''re going to sleep."


    With a smile, Yun Ruoleng obediently nodded her head, she started to change clothes with her back facing Jun Qingshang. After she changed, Jun Qingshang was already fully dressed, Yun Ruoleng suspiciously looked at his clothes: "Your highness knows a technique?"


    He didn''t change his clothes when he came in, so what was he wearing?


    Jun Qingshang chuckled, and felt that the confused Yun Ruoleng at this moment was truly adorable. She couldn''t help but reach out and pinch her rosy little face, "Ruo Er really doesn''t like directors.


    It was only then that Yun Ruoleng saw the Dark Pavilion that Jun Qingshang spoke of, and embarrassedly touched his nose: "So that''s how it is."


    Jun Qingshang knocked on her head in annoyance, "Silly girl, aren''t you tired? "Let''s go!"


    Yun Ruoleng shot him a glance, snorted and walked out. Jun Qingshang shook his head helplessly, this girl was truly cute.


    Once Yun Ruoleng returned to the marriage room, he wrapped himself up like a dumpling, afraid that Jun Qingshang wouldn''t hear the words just now and do something to him.


    Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng who was wrapped up like a cocoon with amusement and anger: "Aren''t you afraid that you''ll ruin yourself by getting hot like this?"


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. It was indeed a little hot inside, but compared to sharing a blanket with Jun Qingshang, it was very safe. Therefore, Yun Ruoleng shook his head decisively: "It''s not hot."


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes slightly twitched, as a trace of impatience appeared on his face. "Come out immediately, if you don''t come out now, don''t blame this king for anything this king has done!"


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes, and stared at him with a wronged expression: "You actually dare to anger me!"


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth twitched, he stared emotionlessly at the woman who was pretending to be pitiful on the bed: "Come out. This King has no patience. "


    Yun Ruoleng subconsciously shrunk his neck, his head quickly turning as he judged the pros and cons of this matter. He felt that it would be better to give up his blanket, otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable.


    Therefore, Yun Ruoleng, who was wrapped up like a cocoon just now, slowly peeled off the quilt on his body. Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes flashed slightly as his gaze landed on a table not far away.


    Jun Qingshang slowly walked to the front of the table, holding onto his wine cup, he walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and handed him the cup: "How can I not have a drink?"


    Her serious eyes were filled with Yun Ruoleng, she laughed, and crawled out from under the blanket, holding onto her wine cup, she said heroically: "Come, drink."


    Jun Qingshang smiled and sat on the side of the bed. After the two of them finished drinking together, Yun Ruoleng quickly retreated, but her reaction was faster than hers. Her free hand grabbed onto her wrist and tugged, causing Yun Ruoleng to pull her into his embrace without any defenses.


    "Still want to flee?" Jun Qingshang stared at her in displeasure, what was this girl hiding from? Was he that hungry?


    Yun Ruoleng was a little embarrassed after being caught, because her face was slightly red from drinking wine, and she looked extremely alluring.


    Jun Qingshang''s Adam''s apple moved, and she unconsciously kissed that soft and pink lip ¡­


    The hidden guards outside the red tent weren''t so well off in the spring.


    The little emperor left and returned, bringing the Phoenix Diagram with him. When the An Ying Guards saw the Phoenix Diagram, their entire bodies started to look bad. In order to not let him in, An Ying Guards had said what they were going to say. Huang Tu and the little emperor looked at each other. Although they did not intend to continue going in, the smile on their faces as they left caused An Ying to tremble with fear for an entire night.


    Xiahou Jin Rou stood at a place not far from the Water Spirit Pavilion. She looked at the tightly shut courtyard door and the handkerchief in her hand twisted into a ball. Her fingernails had pierced her palm but her face was calm.


    "Let''s go!" Only after watching for a long time did Xiahou Jin Rou turn around and leave. No one noticed her arrival, nor did anyone notice her departure.


    This night was destined to be a night of joy and sorrow.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up again, she was already in the sun for the third time. The pain in her entire body was indescribable, and when she thought about someone breaking their promise last night, she also showed a warm expression with a livid expression.


    Someone had tampered with the two cups of wine.


    The door creaked open, and someone moved away. Yun Ruoleng''s gaze was like a knife as she stared at the person who appeared at the door, and before she could speak, she heard a soft laugh: "My beloved concubine is looking straight at me, are you blaming me for taking care of you last night?"


    "Jun Qingshang!"


    Yun Ruoleng grabbed the pillow behind him and threw it towards him. Jun Qingshang dodged to the side, and helplessly shook his head: "Ruo Er, get up and eat.


    "What time is it now?" Yun Ruoleng suddenly remembered that he had to enter the palace today. He panicked for a moment, and jumped off the bed, but his legs suddenly felt weak, and if not for Jun Qingshang''s quick reaction, he would have fallen to the ground.


    Jun Qingshang slightly frowned, his heart was a little frustrated. Last night, he was too excessive, so it was better to restrain himself in the future. Jun Qingshang supported Yun Ruoleng and helped him sit on the bed, then called An Xiang in: "Serve the wangfei well."


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang replied as he watched Jun Qingshang get up and walk out.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned in doubt, his fingers moving at the corners of his clothes: Where are you going?


    Jun Qingshang''s body trembled slightly: "Your body isn''t feeling well, I won''t be going to the palace to pay my respects today."


    "But ¡­"


    "Mother will understand." Jun Qingshang turned his head and smiled at her, then continued to walk forward.


    Yun Ruoleng was still a little afraid that his new wife would not even go in to offer him tea the first day she entered the house. She didn''t know the disposition of the empress dowager, but it was impossible for people in this world to avoid customs.


    Very clearly, Yun Ruoleng''s worries were unnecessary. Not long after Jun Qingshang left, an old Han nanny came to the Water Spirit Pavilion, saying that he came under orders, but after Yun Ruoleng saw her, the man smiled and saluted her. He then took the white cloth off the bed.


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at her slightly, and what she couldn''t get rid of in her mind was that touch of bright red color. Her small face instantly turned boiling, and she remembered the scene where Jun Qingshang was tangled up with her last night.

 C165

    Yun Ruoleng pulled over his blanket and wrapped himself up tightly: "I''m tired, you guys can leave!"


    nanny Han looked at the white cloth in his hand, then looked at Yun Ruoleng''s reaction. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly as he blessed himself, "The wangfei should rest more. The empress dowager said when wangfei should rest well, and not be late to the palace."


    Yun Ruoleng''s words had a deep meaning to them. He buried his head in the blanket and thanked the empress dowager in a muffled voice.


    During lunch, Yun Ruoleng was also used on the bed, and last night was truly too excessive, causing his legs to be weak. When Yun Ruoleng saw Jun Qingshang, his expression immediately turned bad, and when Jun Qingshang sent some people to deliver the things, he did not see anyone, but at night, Yun Ruoleng asked An Xiang to invite him over.


    "Your highness broke his promise last night, shouldn''t you give an explanation?" After the meal, Yun Ruoleng pulled Jun Qingshang along, his face sunken. This person had been hiding for an entire day, and he still wanted to hide!


    "Ruo Er is too beautiful, this king can''t control himself." Jun Qingshang raised his hand and chased out all the servant girls in the room. Then he said, "This king will definitely not let Ruo Er get injured in the future."


    Actually, Jun Qingshang was quite helpless as well. He did not expect the little emperor and the others to do something to the wine, saying that it was to promote the harmony of the newlyweds.


    "Jun Qingshang!" Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes. This man was still thinking about the future, he was extremely detestable!


    Jun Qingshang coughed lightly, "I have already asked the imperial physician. What you said does make some sense, but the imperial physician said that the round room matter isn''t too serious. The child can have it later."


    "¡­" Aren''t the imperial physicians of this era a little too lousy? To actually give such a judgement, Yun Ruoleng was regretting discussing such a meaningless matter with Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang rubbed her head and said with a smile, "I will restrain myself in the future. Have a good rest tonight!"


    Yun Ruoleng glared at him unhappily. This man was simply too shameless and used to it, why had he not realised that he had such a side to him before? Fortunately, it was night time, and Jun Qingshang did not do anything unspeakable.


    The morning of the next day, when Jun Qingshang was in the morning assembly, he also crawled out from his bed. Rubbing his sleepy eyes, he felt something on his forehead.


    Jun Qingshang kissed before leaving, and asked: "You''re going to sleep a little longer?"


    "I''ll come to the palace to see the empress dowager today. I can''t get too greedy." Yun Ruoleng only felt that he had slept soundly that night, and comfortably stretched his back.


    Seeing her lazy look, the corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly. After putting on the clothes on his body, he started to change her clothes. Yun Ruoleng enjoyed being in his embrace.


    "Raise your hand." As Jun Qingshang helped her put on her clothes, he touched her and comforted her, "Imperial Mother''s personality is really good, you don''t have to worry about it."


    Are you extremely good-natured? Yun Ruoleng didn''t really think that the empress dowager''s personality was that good. From her swift and decisive actions, he could tell that this woman wasn''t as simple as she looked on the surface. As her daughter-in-law, she probably wouldn''t be able to do anything to him!


    Yun Ruoleng thought about the scene after he entered the palace. Seeing that she was distracted, he raised his eyebrows, and directly kissed her pink lips when she wasn''t paying attention. Yun Ruoleng regained her senses as she stared at her beautiful face that was just inches away from him.


    Jun Qingshang''s large palm covered Yun Ruoleng''s pair of crystal clear phoenix eyes, and unconsciously deepened the kiss.


    Yun Ruoleng was once again kissed to the point that she was unable to breathe properly, she had to use all her strength to push him away, causing her to gasp for breath while leaning into his embrace.


    "Good girl, wake up." Jun Qingshang landed on top of Yun Ruoleng''s head and rubbed it lightly.


    Yun Ruoleng shyly nudged him with her hand. The two of them lingered in the room for an hour before they finished washing up. Peach Blossom and An Xiang came in and helped Yun Ruoleng get dressed, but they were stopped by Jun Qingshang.


    As Yun Ruoleng was a man, he stood in front of the dressing table to help the little maid. He was so nervous that even his hands were trembling as he combed his hair.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at Jun Qingshang helplessly. "Your Highness, you should get out of here! "Don''t be so scared that you''ll turn pink."


    "Afraid?" Jun Qingshang''s gaze landed on Peach Blossom Red and asked.


    "No, no ¡­" Peach Blossom almost cried out.


    Yun Ruoleng was speechless. Just by standing there, Jun Qingshang''s aura was able to cause fear to arise in the hearts of others. It was clear that the Duke had not noticed this point and was currently focused on Peach Blossom''s nimble movements.


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows slightly rose, "Is Your Highness preparing to comb my hair?"


    Jun Qingshang leaned on the dressing table, but smiled and did not speak, the expression on his face clearly told Yun Ruoleng the answer. The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised, his mood also becoming a lot better.


    Peach Red looked at Jun Qingshang with hesitation. In the end, she could only silently lower her head and pretend that she did not see anything. She quickly put a bun on Yun Ruoleng''s head and left quickly.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang stayed in the room for around an hour before the door finally opened. The two of them were dressed in dark purple robes, and the color of the robe was extremely similar.


    The moment An Xiang and Cui Ying saw the two coming out, their eyes lit up and stared at them. What is it? The woman was bashful and the man was gentle. He looked like a celestial couple.


    Yun Ruoleng saw the two of them react and was startled, then glared at them: "Is the item ready?"


    "Miss, are you still worried about this servant doing things?" Cui Ying chuckled, and lightly pushed An Xiang, who was still immersed in his own fantasies, at a place where the two of them did not notice.


    An Xiang regained his senses, and awkwardly smiled at the two: "Master, An Ying has prepared everything, we can set off now."


    Jun Qingshang carried Yun Ruoleng and left. He did not say a word, but the corner of his mouth formed a faint smile.


    The empress dowager who was usually so lofty suddenly became her mother-in-law. In addition to that, the moment the empress dowager looked at her, her wrinkled face was covered with smiles. She was so benevolent that it was as if she had seen her own daughter.


    Yun Ruoleng respectfully bowed.


    The clear and crisp sound of her kowtowing made Jun Qingshang''s heart ache, he wanted to extend his hand to support her, but was overtaken by someone: "Silly girl, what are you saying? We''ll be family in the future, so it''s best if we don''t use these fake gifts. "


    Third wangfei and Fourth Wangfei who were watching from the side had their expressions turn ugly when they heard the empress dowager''s words. However, they were all smart people, and their displeased expressions flickered as they quickly smiled and stepped forward, "Imperial Mother is right, little sister doesn''t have to be so formal."

 C166

    The empress dowager didn''t even pay attention to them. She gave a light snort and looked at Yun Ruoleng once before frowning, "You girl, haven''t you eaten? "Why have you become thinner and thinner?"


    "It''s not that Ruo Er has lost weight, it''s that your mother is worried and confused." Yun Ruoleng supported the empress dowager back to her seat with a smile on his face. Like the rest of the people, Yun Ruoleng knelt in front of the empress dowager obediently. Yun Ruoleng carefully lifted the teacup on top of the head of the nation with his jade-like fingers. "Imperial Mother, please have some tea."


    The empress dowager accepted the bowl of tea, and with a laugh, used the cover of the tea to remove the tea powder on the teacup. She lightly sipped at it, and then handed over the Ancient Wood Carving Flower box to Yun Ruoleng, which was on a red lacquer tray.


    "Thank you mother." Yun Ruoleng received the box with a smile, and carefully passed it to An Xiang who was beside him.


    The empress dowager extended her hand to help Yun Ruoleng up, then began to introduce her to the people present.


    Yun Ruoleng responded to everyone one by one, and faced all of their faces that were half familiar with each other, he was not afraid in the slightest.


    The empress dowager became more satisfied with Yun Ruoleng, and after Jun Qingshang left and sent off the others, she then pulled to continue speaking with her.


    "The embroidery you left behind last time was really pretty." The empress dowager''s favorite thing in life was to collect paintings. She had collected quite a few famous paintings from her treasury, and Yun Ruoleng''s Guan Yin sitting lotus picture was also kept inside.


    The empress dowager asked nanny Han to take out the embroidered sample and pulled Yun Ruoleng over to have a chat with him. Not long after the two had started, someone came to report Xiahou Jin Rou''s arrival.


    The empress dowager was momentarily stunned, and she subconsciously glanced at Yun Ruoleng, who was sitting down. Yun Ruoleng nodded at the empress dowager and said, "My daughter-in-law has entered the palace to disturb mother for a long time, it''s about time to go back."


    The empress dowager nodded and asked nanny Han to send her out of the palace. When Yun Ruoleng came out of his room, he saw Xiahou Jin Rou standing at the door with a faint smile on her face. As if she was waiting for him, he bowed slightly, "This subject''s daughter, Xia Hou Jin Rou, greets the Regent''s consort."


    Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded towards her, his cold and detached gaze focused on Xiahou Jin''s soft and charming face. He was slightly startled in his heart, This girl didn''t look as beautiful as him, but she had a kind of gentleness about her that was difficult to ignore.


    "Get up." Yun Ruoleng did not go forward to help her up. Instead, he took a step forward and left, with Xiahou Jin''s gentle gaze staring at Yun Ruoleng''s back. Only after she had disappeared did he raise his lips, following nanny Han into the Tzu Ning Palace.


    After Yun Ruoleng left, there were people who invited her to the side hall of the imperial study before bringing An Xiang there.


    Inside the side hall, Jun Qingshang, who hadn''t been in the palace for even a day, was entangled with the little Emperor Jun Rushi.


    "Why didn''t the royal uncle bring Imperial Aunt to thank us?" Jun Rushi and Jun Qingshang looked at each other for a few seconds, then their curiosity was piqued.


    Jun Qingshang glanced at it, and continued to flip through the memo in his hand, and did not answer.


    Jun Rushi pouted and said smilingly, "royal uncle shouldn''t have been too ¡­"


    "Is the emperor very free?" Jun Qingshang finally started to pay attention to him, but before Jun Rushi could say anything, a stack of memorials was handed over to him.


    When Little Jun Rushi saw the stack of petitions in front of her, the mocking smile on her little face instantly froze. Her gaze pitifully stared at Jun Qingshang''s handsome face that could not be refused, "I''ve been busy lately.


    "Is that so?" Jun Qingshang stared at him with a fake smile, this fellow actually took out all kinds of excuses for him, not even taking a look at what kind of person he was.


    "Really." Jun Rushi''s little head kept on nodding, looking extremely cute.


    However, Jun Qingshang just glanced at him and said with a cold face: "As a human monarch, I must do it."


    The unique beautiful eyes of the Jun Rushi Royal Family narrowed its eyes and stared at Jun Qingshang in danger. Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, not at all scared by his "fiendish gaze." The atmosphere of the room grew colder and colder.


    Yun Ruoleng and An Xiang walked to the entrance of the imperial study one after another, just in time to meet Xiao De Zi who was guarding the entrance. Xiao De Zi saw and was about to report, but was stopped by Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng pushed open the door and entered, but upon entering, he felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, his gaze swept over both of their faces, only to see the young and the old man staring at her, laughing awkwardly: "Did I disturb the two of you?"


    "Imperial Aunt!" Jun Rushi jumped down from his seat as if he had seen his kin, and pounced towards Yun Ruoleng, but before he could even jump in, he was thrown to the side by someone holding his collar.


    "Men and women shouldn''t touch each other!"


    "Your Highness ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was speechless. Jun Rushi was at most a seven or eight year old child.


    "This Emperor is still young." Jun Rushi retorted angrily.


    "The princess isn''t young anymore." Jun Qingshang said indifferently.


    "¡­" Yun Ruoleng and Jun Rushi were dumbstruck.


    However, Duke Qi Jun Qingshang''s expression remained indifferent, and he pulled Yun Ruoleng''s hand as they walked out, saying, "Your Majesty, do not slack off. This King will be taking his leave. "


    He said that he was leaving, but Jun Qingshang didn''t wait for the little Emperor''s answer and leisurely led Yun Ruoleng out, leaving him behind, who was looking at a pile of reports and feeling worried.


    Within the Minister¡¯s Mansion, Yun Yueyu was locked up, once again feeling irritable and uneasy. There were often cases of punishing the servants, and after hearing the news of Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang''s marriage, his mood dropped to the extreme.


    First Madam was afraid that something might have happened to her, so he specially went to beg Yun Shicheng, wanting to see her.


    After Yun Shicheng agreed, First Madam rushed into the Speaker Pavilion impatiently. As soon as he entered, he heard wailing sounds from inside. First Madam was shocked, he quickened his pace.


    "Yu''er!" First Madam''s face was pale as he looked at the two maidservants lying on the ground. There were lashes all over her body and one of them even had her clothes torn, revealing a large wound on her back.


    Yun Yueyu glared at Rui Ling who was beside him in displeasure. "Bring her down now! Don''t dirty mother''s eyes!"


    "Yes sir!" As Yun Yueyu''s head maid, although Rui Ling was not whipped like the other maids, being scolded was a common thing. Rui Ling had been submissively sent to be cleaned up, but no one noticed the viciousness in her eyes.


    First Madam avoided the blood stains on the ground. Clutching his nose, he pulled Yun Yueyu into the room. "That day, you threw the ball at the top of the pyramid and the ball smashed into this year''s top scholar. Although it can''t be compared to the imperial family, it''s already the best outcome. Do you want to keep your temper? "


    "Mother! Why would that slut Yun Ruoleng, as a concubine, be able to marry the Marquis, while I, a dignified second stage Shang Shu''s direct daughter, would be able to marry a Champion? She forced me to this point, yet instead of helping me, you actually came to comfort me! Are you still my mother? "

 C167

    "Yu''er ¡­" Just as First Madam spoke out, Yun Yueyu flung her hand away and walked into the room without looking back.


    First Madam shook her head helplessly. This little girl was too impatient and did not know how to hide her emotions. She would suffer a loss sooner or later.


    The mother and daughter conversation ended on bad terms. First Madam looked at the tightly shut door and sighed, the current Yun Ruoleng was no longer the Yun Ruoleng who was easy to handle. Her identity was different, if she wanted to fight with her, she would have to depend on the Third Marquis to win that position.


    However, when Yun Ruoleng received the news that was sent from the Mrs. Luo, she was leaning against Jun Qingshang''s chest and eating the grapes that had just been given to him. The round grapes had a sweet and juicy taste, Yun Ruoleng felt extremely comfortable, but it was a pity that there were not many of them.


    When Yun Ruoleng thought about being able to eat it all the time in the twenty-first century, he instantly felt a bit disappointed.


    "What are you thinking about?" Jun Qingshang poked her bright and clean forehead, and looked at her knitted eyebrows in puzzlement, "Not tasty?"


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng opened his mouth and swallowed the grapes Jun Qingshang passed to him. The sweet juice instantly filled his mouth and his almond-shaped eyes slightly narrowed as he smiled in enjoyment.


    "Yun Yueyu, what do you plan to do?" Jun Qingshang hugged the beauty in his arms tightly, and looked at her enjoying herself, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, raised his head and laughed beside Jun Qingshang''s ear: "Tomorrow, An Yue will bring a new top scholar to sneak in."


    Jun Qingshang laughed softly, and doted on Yun Ruoleng''s nose a little. This girl was truly too bad, she had thought to climb the dragon and climb the phoenix, and in the end she did not even get anything, and now she was ruining another''s marriage.


    Seeing that Jun Qingshang had understood everything in an instant, Yun Ruoleng innocently blinked his eyes: "Hey, I am only trying to save a young man, don''t misunderstand me."


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows. This girl had a new word for it, although he did not know what it meant, it was very interesting.


    An Yue, who was lying on the roof and basking in the sunlight, heard their conversation and almost fell down. What kind of treatment was this?


    After making his decision, Yun Ruoleng happily finished eating a plate of grapes, she touched her round stomach and laughed as she looked at Jun Qingshang. Her alluring lips were stained with water, Jun Qingshang''s expression darkened, before Yun Ruoleng could react, she had already lowered her head and kissed him.


    Yun Ruoleng was shocked, then he felt that his eyes had been covered with a big hand, and the man''s kiss was getting deeper and deeper, uncontrollably sinking in.


    "Master!" Just as the two were getting close, An Ying suddenly rushed into the room. After seeing the scene, he turned and ran, but he was still a step too late.


    "Ugh ¡­" An Ying is looking for you ¡­ " Yun Ruoleng moaned, avoided Jun Qingshang''s kiss, and said with a red face.


    Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly knitted, and his handsome face slowly sank. His cold gaze swept across him: "Eh?"


    "Three... The Third Marquis is here. " An Ying scolded Jun Qingfeng in his heart as he lowered his head, trembling.


    "Why?" He wouldn''t visit the Three Treasures Palace when he had nothing to do. There must be something important for Jun Qingfeng to be able to come all the way to his territory.


    An Ying shook his head to show that he did not know anything: "He only said that he wanted to meet you."


    "Go." Yun Ruoleng was not stupid, although he did not understand what kind of person Jun Qingfeng was, but for the people from the enemy camp to actually come by themselves, it must be some big event.


    Jun Qingshang lowered his head and pressed a kiss onto Yun Ruoleng''s forehead, then reluctantly left. An Ying turned and gave Yun Ruoleng a thumbs up, then happily followed Jun Qingshang out.


    Jun Qingshang walked into the living room and saw Jun Qingfeng drinking tea at the side. He seemed to be in a bad mood and his expression was a little nervous.


    "What do you mean only?" Jun Qingfeng raised his eyebrow, what does this man want to do now?


    "You and Seventh Sister-in-law are related ¡­"


    "This king appreciates the congratulations of Third Imperial Brother. If there''s nothing else, This King will not keep you any longer. " Jun Qingshang did not want to waste time with him, he turned around and was about to leave, but Jun Qingfeng stopped him first.


    "What is it?" Jun Qingshang said with a cold face.


    Jun Qingfeng also stopped smiling fawningly, and said with a heavy face. "Seventh Imperial Brother, let the Ministry of Justice release him."


    "Who?" Jun Qingshang pursed her lips. No wonder he came to look for her. It was the Ministry of Justice who kidnapped him!


    Seeing his expression, Jun Qingfeng thought that he was pretending to be confused, his face immediately became green, and the fist he was holding tightly to the side could not help but clench: "Zhang Zhe!"


    "Impossible." Jun Qingshang rejected him without even thinking, "Corruption and corrupting the atmosphere, you deserve to die."


    "Do you have evidence?" Jun Qingfeng sneered, he felt that he would not have any evidence.


    Jun Qingshang laughed in a mysterious manner that caused Jun Qingfeng''s hair to stand on end. This kind of smile gave him a bad premonition.


    "Is there any difference between having no evidence and having evidence?" Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, it would be fine if he did not have the evidence, but to get rid of his right-hand man, why not?


    Jun Qingfeng''s face became even uglier. He had thought that Jun Qingshang would at least let him go on account of him, who knew that he would not let him go? It seemed that Jun Qingshang would not be the same as before.


    "Seventh Imperial Brother isn''t even giving you this much face?" Jun Qingfeng used his brotherly relationship to make his final struggle.


    "It''s not that This King doesn''t want to give it to you, but that the Emperor has been studying government affairs recently. This matter was resolved by the Emperor." Jun Qingshang smiled.


    Your majesty? Jun Qingfeng didn''t believe that the Emperor was still young, and Jun Qingshang, the Regent, must have made this decision.


    However, Jun Qingshang was unwilling to let go, so he had no choice but to say three good words and leave.


    And after Jun Qingshang left, an unexpected guest arrived at Yun Ruoleng''s place. Yun Ruoleng held his head up as he looked at the woman in front of him, then looked at the fist-sized Night Pearl on the table, and chuckled: "Third royal sister-in-law is too courteous."


    "Sister-in-law, there''s no need to be polite. The two of us can''t talk much between each other, and I''ve come here to find you for a reason." Third wangfei, Zhang Qinyue, pushed the Night Pearl towards Yun Ruoleng''s side. "My father made a mistake and was imprisoned by the Prince in the Ministry of Justice, I don''t know ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled, and interrupted her: "Esteemed imperial sister-in-law is truly outspoken. A woman cannot interfere with the imperial government. Your royal sister-in-law should go to the prince! "


    "This ¡­" Zhang Qin Yue''s face looked a little awkward, she never thought that Yun Ruoleng would reject her directly, and without giving her any face at all.


    Yun Ruoleng immediately waved his hand, An Xiang immediately understood what was going on, and pushed the Night Pearl on the table towards Zhang Qinyue.


    Yun Ruoleng opened his mouth and spoke in an indifferent tone: "Third sister-in-law, please accept this precious item."


    Zhang Qinyue''s delicate makeup caused her small face to twist. She coldly snorted, then ordered her people to take their things and leave. Yun Ruoleng waved his hand with a smile that was not a smile: "Sister Huang, take care."

 C168

    Zhang Qinyue came over with a smile, and left angrily. Yun Ruoleng was not affected by her at all, and started to discuss things with An Yue.


    "Esteemed wangfei, you can''t scam me like this!" An Yue felt that this girl had a sudden idea. What kind of reason was this!


    "Of course not." Yun Ruoleng smiled as he waved his hand, "I am doing this for the good of your prince."


    For the good of the prince? An Yue really wanted to say something, why couldn''t I see it? But the moment he opened his mouth, he saw Yun Ruoleng looking at him innocently, and forcefully swallowing the words he wanted to say, and nodded helplessly.


    Seeing him leave, Yun Ruoleng was in a good mood as she looked at the drawing book. When Jun Qingshang came back, he just happened to see Yun Ruoleng reading through the book seriously, Peach Blossom was pouring water for her. Seeing that Jun Qingshang had arrived, she added another cup of tea and slowly left.


    "What are you looking at?" Jun Qingshang walked to her side and sat down. His arm passed through her hair and pulled her into an embrace.


    "Does Your Highness know who came after you left?" Yun Ruoleng pushed his painting book to the side and laughed.


    Jun Qingshang nodded and replied.


    "Aren''t you afraid that I''ll agree?" Yun Ruoleng was very curious. It had only been a few days since their marriage, wasn''t he afraid that she would cause trouble?


    "Will you agree?" Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng with a faint smile, obviously assured that she would not agree.


    This man ate very thoroughly.


    Yun Ruoleng stared at him for a long time, then laughed out loud. She cupped her hands in Jun Qingshang''s embrace and found a comfortable place to lean on.


    In the following days, Jun Qingshang stayed home with his lovely wife for their honeymoon, while the little emperor of the imperial palace was suffocated from the weight of the imperial reports.


    "Go out of the palace and observe the situation of the people!" Jun Rushi''s face darkened as he ordered.


    Hearing that, Little De''s face instantly changed, "Your Majesty, you can''t! "Your Highness has said that today, His Majesty will approve all of these papers ¡­"


    Jun Rushi glanced at Little De, and with the sudden appearance of an overlord, Little De''s forehead broke out in cold sweat, and he immediately became so scared that he did not dare say a word.


    Jun Rushi had the little eunuch find him an ordinary set of clothes, and after changing, he brought the two guards and the group of secret guards and sneakily walked out of the palace. After exiting the palace, Jun Rushi heaved a sigh of relief. He was actually more relaxed than the chattering little De Zi who was following him.


    The news of Jun Rushi leaving the palace was naturally confidential, but Jun Qingshang had not expected that he would already know of it. It was just that the hidden guard was a bit reckless, charging in without reporting, and was sent flying by Jun Qingshang with a palm.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, then patted Jun Qingshang''s chest. "Go, don''t let anything happen to the emperor."


    When Jun Qingshang heard this, his face darkened, it was clear that he only wanted to be together with Yun Ruoleng, and in the end he sighed and left.


    "What would have happened to that person just now?" Yun Ruoleng thought for a moment, then called An Xiang in and asked.


    "I don''t think he''ll live past tomorrow." An Xiang fell silent, then shook his head at Yun Ruoleng, "Seeing that he suffered from internal injuries, he might not even be able to live past tonight."


    "It''s that serious?" Yun Ruoleng felt his throat tighten. He had only disturbed them for a moment, that shouldn''t be the case, right?


    "Princess, I don''t know how much punishment there is in the palace." After An Xiang poured a cup of tea for Yun Ruoleng, he said in a somewhat melancholy tone, "The people from the Violent Chamber of Commerce will not easily deal with him, after all, he has angered the Duke."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes drooped slightly. She knew that the lives of the ancient people were worthless, but she didn''t know that they were actually this cheap.


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng''s mood seemed to be a little low, An Xiang thought for a bit and advised, "Royal Concubine, without rules, there''s no limit. This matter was small, but if everything was like this, how could it be accomplished? The Heavenly Imperial Kingdom is not as peaceful as the imperial concubine thinks. "


    "I know." Yun Ruoleng let out a low sigh. After pausing for a moment, he still let An Xiang go, as he only asked her to bring along a sentence, "This wangfei wants a living person."


    An Xiang was helpless, but in the end, he still agreed.


    An Xiang had just left when he returned with a dark face. Seeing this, Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly and said: "It seems that the new top scorer is quite a strong character. "To be able to make you this angry, this person is quite interesting."


    "Ha!" An Yue sneered, his bright eyes stared straight at Yun Ruoleng, "It is indeed interesting."


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows and asked: How''s the matter?


    "As you wish. He''s going to break off the engagement, but he doesn''t dare." The new top scholar had withdrawn from the marriage alliance of the second rank Shang Chen''s family, and had offended the second rank Shang Guan, so destroying it was indeed his own future. Not to mention whether he dared to go or not, even if he did, he had to think about his future, right?


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to understand and nodded, he waved his hand at An Yue: "It''s been hard on you, go and rest first!"


    An Yue wanted to say that he did not have a hard time, but the mission made him very sullen.


    It happened an hour ago.


    He wanted to run the moment he woke up, but it was a pity that he did not. After grabbing him and bringing him back, An Yue threw him into the Enlightenment Pavilion, but who knew that the moment he went to see Yun Yueyu grabbing and beating up a servant girl, he was startled to the point that his heart skipped a beat, his face turned pale, and he immediately fainted ¡­


    An Yue felt that this person was extremely embarrassed. How could he be assigned such a mission?


    After Yun Ruoleng chased her out, he got up and walked towards the small study room next door. Stepping out of the door, he saw Peach Blossom playing with Ao Tian in the cage, she had not played with him for many days already, and suddenly turned around and walked towards Peach Blossom''s side. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng had arrived, Peach Blossom immediately gave her the food by her side: "Miss, are you going out today?"


    "Why do you ask?" Yun Ruoleng frowned in puzzlement, she did not say that she was going out?


    "Zhen Jun said that the embroidery workshop produced two batches of top quality soft tobacco. When Miss has time, you should come over to take a look." Peach Blossom seemed to have thought of something, as she took out a brocade handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it over to Yun Ruoleng, "This cloth is no worse than soft Yan Luo. Zhen Jun wants to ask Miss, is this cloth good for the embroidery workshop in the future?"


    Yun Ruoleng knew that the cost of the Soft Mist Luo was too high, but the Soft Mist Luo could still be sold for a good price. After all, the young mistresses of noble families all liked the Soft Mist Luo, so they were too competitive, resulting in some good fabrics that could not be sold for a good price.


    Yun Ruoleng handed the handkerchief over to Peach Blossom, and shook his head slightly: "No, this will cause our business to be damaged, but we can sell it together, it depends on the customer''s preferences."


    "Hmm?" Peach Blossom seemed to understand what Yun Ruoleng was saying, but her watery eyes made Yun Ruoleng feel helpless.


    He patted her on the shoulder and said, "You''ll know in the future."


    You''ll know about it in the future? Peach Blossom curled her lips. She was just very curious, her curiosity was aroused, and her heart was itching. Unexpectedly, Yun Ruoleng ignored her, and turned to walk towards the study room.


    After Jun Qingshang left the Duke Palaces, he brought An Ying and the other two to the bustling area to search for Jun Rushi''s figure.

 C169

    Jun Qingshang''s face became even uglier, the people that An Ying had arranged for to go out did not bring back any news, and this caused Jun Qingshang and his master to not know what to do.


    The streets were filled with people, in addition to the restaurants, teahouses, and antique shops. It was indeed difficult to find a person without a clue, but logically, for Jun Qingshang, it should not be like this.


    "Master, the Emperor won''t go back, right?" After searching for so long without finding anyone, An Ying felt that it was time to go back.


    Jun Qingshang coldly glanced at him, and did not say a word. Her gaze landed on the crowd, and after searching for a moment, she sneered: "Do you see that carriage in front of us?"


    An Ying''s gaze followed Jun Qingshang''s gaze and looked over. His eyes twitched a few times, thinking that the emperor was really bold to have actually imitated''s carriage ¡­


    An Ying lowered his head silently to reduce the feeling that he existed. It would be strange if the Duke wasn''t angry, and most of the anger was borne by the rest of them.


    Jun Qingshang walked in the direction of the carriage, looked at the "servant" who was sitting on the carriage and feeling nervous, and sneered in his heart. This kid could think of anything;


    "Where is he?" Jun Qingshang walked to the front of the carriage with a gloomy face, his ice-cold eyes staring at the dark guard who was dressed as a servant.


    At first, the dark guard did not pay much attention. However, after he asked, he was shocked, and his legs began to tremble. He hurriedly jumped down from the car and respectfully knelt in front of him: "Master said he was going to buy candy and paint, your subordinate will take care of the car."


    "Alone?" An Ying''s heart skipped a beat, his eyes quickly searched the crowd, but he still couldn''t find Jun Rushi.


    "No, no." The shadow guard braced himself and shook his head, "There were still a few dark guards following them. Mistress was worried so she brought them."


    Not at ease? Jun Qingshang sneered, what was he worried about? If he could run outside without anyone''s permission, would he have anything to worry about? Jun Qingshang coldly swept a glance at him, did not speak, and only moved his fingers slightly. An Ying comprehended the technique, and quickly made a hand gesture towards the air, then hurriedly ran towards the crowd.


    The little emperor was big and small as he weaved through the crowd, shaking off the tail of a group of people early in the morning. After that, he happily walked on the street, completely unaware of the danger that was about to befall him.


    When Jun Rushi walked to Mo Zhan''s door, he subconsciously took a glance at it, as he was worried that he would see someone familiar, so he did not enter. Instead, he continued to walk forward, and suddenly felt a gaze from behind him. Jun Rushi was not stupid. If he did not even know about this, then he had truly become the emperor of these past few years for nothing.


    Jun Rushi increased his speed, the people behind him also increased their speed, at the end, Jun Rushi felt helpless, as he quickly passed through the crowd and into Mo Zhan. Upon entering, a faint scent of ink could be smelled from the crowd, as portraits of themselves appeared in front of his eyes, Jun Rushi no longer had time to appreciate them, as he pulled Zhen Jun who was in the midst of discussing business, "I want to see Sister Yun."


    Zhen Jun was seeing Jun Rushi for the first time, upon hearing that he wanted to see Big Sister Yun, he frowned: "Could it be that little gongzi has walked into the wrong place? There''s no Sister Yun you''re looking for here. "


    "I ¡­" Zhen Jun? " Jun Rushi looked at him suspiciously, thinking that he had caught the wrong person.


    Zhen Jun nodded. This child actually knew him, but it wasn''t strange. After all, this child''s clothes weren''t something an ordinary person''s clothes could compare with. It was likely that he was influenced by the adults to know something.


    Jun Rushi was excited, he glared at the scholar with the painting and said, "If there''s anything you want to say later, I ¡­ I have something important to talk to her about. "


    "Sigh ¡­" How can you be like this? " Scholars were all about first come first served, so Jun Rushi''s words made him extremely dissatisfied.


    Zhen Jun helplessly pulled at Jun Rushi: "Young master, can you say anything later? This little one is doing business! "


    "Be careful of me ¡­" I came to the Duke to say that you have neglected me, and Sister Yun will punish you! " Jun Rushi was not discussing with Zhen Jun, it was simply a threat.


    Many people were still confused about the power behind Mo Zhan, but Zhen Jun was very clear about it. Zhen Jun who was rejecting just now immediately smiled and apologized to the scholar, then led Jun Rushi to the inner room, his eyes coldly staring at him: "Young Noble can tell me who you are now, right?"


    "The Regent is my royal uncle and Yun Ruoleng is my imperial aunt. Who do you think I am?" Jun Rushi said in all seriousness. She looked especially cute.


    Zhen Jun looked at him thoughtfully, and after a long while, he found a hint of resemblance to Jun Qingshang on his face, and waved his hand: "I will bring Young Noble to Regent¡¯s Mansion."


    However, Jun Rushi pulled him back and did not let him go, "Someone is following me outside."


    Zhen Jun frowned slightly and pulled Jun Rushi to the back door. He said to the attendant as they walked: "You guys go prepare the carriage at the back door, go to Regent¡¯s Mansion immediately."


    "Yes sir!" The servant''s movements were nimble, the two of them only took a few minutes to reach the back door. The coachman drove the carriage over, and Zhen Jun directly went towards Regent¡¯s Mansion without saying a word.


    After all, going to the Regent¡¯s Mansion would not be an easy task. If Jun Qingshang knew that he was running around randomly, he would definitely tear him apart. When Jun Rushi thought about his royal uncle''s methods, he couldn''t help but shiver. He decided to first talk it over with his imperial aunt, it would be safer this way.


    Yun Ruoleng sat in the courtyard and read a book. The butler hastily ran into the courtyard and bowed, "Princess, His Majesty has found him."


    Yun Ruoleng raised his head from the book, his gaze cold. "Where? Are you hurt? "


    The butler shook his head and said with a puzzled expression, "He entered the house and is not injured. It was brought by Zhen Jun. "


    "Why is he with Zhen Jun?" Yun Ruoleng got up from the chair, and his eyebrows slightly knitted together. Jun Rushi should not have known Zhen Jun, how did the two of them end up together?


    "This subordinate does not know."


    The butler shook his head, and at this time, the courtyard door was filled with laughter. An Xiang led Zhen Jun and Jun Rushi into the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the child who was brought in by Zhen Jun, and his face immediately darkened. He turned around and said to An Xiang: "Go inform the Duke, the Emperor has returned."


    "Yes sir!" Seeing that the situation was not good, An Xiang replied and immediately left.


    Jun Rushi threw himself into Yun Ruoleng''s embrace and said with a smile that fawned on him, "Imperial Aunt is so beautiful today."


    Yun Ruoleng gave a cold laugh, "You sneaked out and didn''t even try to get me to talk about love affairs."


    "Sigh, Imperial Aunt is the most kind-hearted and beautiful woman in the world, how could she not help me?" Jun Rushi was extremely serious in front of the court officials, but he was cute to the extreme when it came to going up against the empress dowager and Yun Ruoleng.

 C170

    Yun Ruoleng enjoyed these words just for his safety. Yun Ruoleng still decided to let Jun Qingshang teach him a lesson.


    Not long after, Jun Qingshang came back, and her cold gaze landed on Jun Rushi''s hand who was tightly holding onto Yun Ruoleng''s skirt, not letting go. Jun Rushi felt goosebumps all over his body, and he subconsciously dodged behind Yun Ruoleng.


    "Your highness came back just in time to send the emperor back to the palace!" As if unaware of the situation, Yun Ruoleng pulled Jun Rushi out from behind him.


    Jun Qingshang snorted, he extended his hand and pulled Jun Rushi, who was about to escape, to his side, then turned and left.


    Yun Ruoleng seemingly did not expect Jun Qingshang to be this violent, as he directly pulled Jun Rushi out of the courtyard, and then... Yun Ruoleng worriedly looked at An Xiang: "Your highness won''t beat the Emperor up, will he?"


    The corner of An Xiang''s mouth raised slightly, and poured a cup of tea for Yun Ruoleng as he laughed, "Princess, don''t worry. "The Emperor is still a ruler of the kingdom, after all."


    "Oh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed, how did she feel that Jun Qingshang would very likely attack her?


    Jun Qingshang brought Jun Rushi into the palace, and said to the guard: "In the future, if you dare to let anyone out of the palace carelessly, this king will definitely not let you off lightly!"


    "Yes sir!" The guard couldn''t help wiping away the sweat on his forehead. Oh my god, the prince''s expression just now was so scary!


    Along the way, they walked into the Qian Xi Palace. Without waiting for Jun Rushi to speak, he asked directly, "Where did you run off to?"


    "I just wandered around for a while." Jun Rushi pouted, and snorted unhappily.


    Jun Qingshang''s expression was slightly cold, her eyes leisurely stared at him: "Are you sure?"


    Jun Rushi shook his head, he knew that he could not push it away, and could only explain everything in the end. The most surprising thing was that Jun Qingshang did not say a single word. After a moment of silence, he turned and left the great hall.


    Jun Qingshang turned around and did not go far. Instead, he spoke a few sentences to the leader of the hidden guards before returning to the great hall. Looking at the dazed Jun Rushi who was sitting at the side, he snorted coldly, "This king had thought that the Emperor had too much guts, and was only so-so!"


    Jun Rushi wanted to retort, but Jun Qingshang''s aura was too strong, he basically did not have the chance to speak at all.


    Jun Qingshang unhurriedly handed him a piece of jade. "Learn the contents of the first three chapters within three days. At that time, I will take a look."


    Holding the jade, Jun Rushi''s face immediately darkened, this was a cultivation technique for cultivating inner force, but this technique was too difficult to comprehend, was it even possible for him to learn it?


    Towards people who challenged his limits, Jun Qingshang would definitely not be soft-hearted. After handing the things over to him, he turned around and left.


    Even though Jun Rushi was not convinced that she had been forced to learn inner force cultivation methods, he knew clearly that this was to protect him, so he did not complain.


    When Jun Qingshang returned from the Imperial Palace, it was already near dark. Yun Ruoleng was standing at the Water Spirit Pavilion entrance, waiting for him to return, but he didn''t think that standing there would take more than two hours.


    "Miss, let''s go in!" Peach Blossom put on a cloak for her. "It''s night. The sky is cold."


    "Say, do you think that something has happened to Prince Lu since he''s not back yet?" The so called concern was a mess. The Yun Ruoleng of the past would never be conflicted over what would happen to Jun Qingshang.


    But as soon as they were married, she thought too much.


    Peach Blossom was speechless. How could she be so worried if she went to a palace like this?


    In order to prevent Yun Ruoleng from being too worried, Peach Blossom comforted her: "Miss, the prince is only going to the palace, he''s not going to war, you don''t have to worry."


    Yun Ruoleng immediately laughed, he felt that he was overthinking it, and wanted to return, but just as he was about to do so, Jun Qingshang walked over with large strides, and immediately welcomed him with a smile.


    Actually, the first thing Jun Qingshang did after he returned to his residence was to go to the Water Spirit Pavilion to find his wife. Seeing her thoughtfully standing at the door, his grave and stern face slightly eased up: "It''s cool outside, come in."


    Yun Ruoleng looked up as she heard the voice, her phoenix eyes sparkling as she stared at the man that was walking toward her. "It''s good that you''re back."


    "Is Ruo Er worrying about this king?" Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace and gently caressed her hair.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at him coquettishly. "Who cares about you!?"


    "Ruo Er, you!" Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, he lowered his head and whispered into her ear. Yun Ruoleng dodged quickly, her face turning red.


    The two of them ate their dinner as usual, holding hands as they prepared to take a walk. However, just as they stepped out of the restaurant, they met Huang Xuan who had just come back from the outside.


    Jun Qingshang embraced Yun Ruoleng and frowned slightly: "Why haven''t you left yet?"


    Huang Tu''s eyes lit up as he looked at Yun Ruoleng, then waved his hand at him and said: "If you''ve had enough, you will definitely leave."


    "The Yue Ling is so big, could it be that it can''t be compared to your resting place as a prince?" Jun Qingshang would not care so much and directly sent the guest away.


    Yun Ruoleng subconsciously pulled a corner of him. Why did he sound so bad when he spoke? The light in Jun Qingshang''s eyes dimmed slightly, and his heart felt even more uncomfortable when he looked at Feng Tu''s enchanting expression, which was filled with a smile yet not a smile.


    Feng Tu innocently shrugged his shoulders: "Everyone knows that the capital of Heaven''s Enlightenment is full of beautiful women. This king is almost drunk to the point of being gentle, how can I bear to go back?"


    "Is that so? I''m afraid that''s not up to you. " Jun Qingshang narrowed his eyes as a cold smile hung on his lips, "Three days later, the Yue Ling Envoys will enter the capital soon. Are you sure you want to continue staying in this duke''s manor?"


    Huang Tu''s expression changed slightly, coldly snorted, and left with a flick of his sleeve.


    Yun Ruoleng watched his retreating back and frowned, and looked at Jun Qingshang with some confusion: "Why is he afraid of emissaries?"


    "Even though the Phoenix Diagram is a prince, because the mother race is too strong, they are feared by the Emperor Yue Ling." Jun Qingshang rubbed her hairy head and chuckled, "He is not afraid of emissaries, but if he is related to Heaven''s Enlightenment, then it would be a big deal."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, although she did not ask, she was not stupid, she would naturally know of such a simple reason.


    When Huang Tidemark returned to his own courtyard, he was filled with mixed emotions. His gaze fell on the broken moon outside as his heart darkened.


    "Master, the one who came to the Heaven''s Initiation this time is Crown Prince Huang Teng." A black-clothed man appeared in front of him in a flash, a stern expression on his face.


    No wonder Jun Qingshang wanted to kick him out this time. So it was him who came.


    But unfortunately, it was impossible to avoid him this time.


    "Mistress might not be able to make it this time." The black-clothed man frowned. "Your excellency seems to be ill, and the emperor seems to have started to take action. There''s a message from the Yue Ling. The empress dowager is very ill."


    "Grandmother?" The empress dowager was his mother''s aunt, so she had always taken good care of him. Especially after mufei died, she paid a lot and was now very sick ¡­


    Huang Tu did not continue pondering and waved his hand: "We will set off tomorrow."


    "Yes." The black-clothed person instantly disappeared into thin air, and the lonely figure of Phoenix Diagram was once again left in the room.

 C171

    After Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang returned to the Water Spirit Pavilion, they explained the situation with the new Minister Yuan Lang, then revealed their plans, and looked at Jun Qingshang with eager eyes.


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly, Yun Ruoleng''s plan was too simple. Although it was feasible, it was not feasible at all, and Jun Qingshang was a little worried, but when he thought about how confident she was, he did not have the heart to shock her, and could only sigh: "When you need An Ying''s guards, just look for them, and don''t report to me."


    "Hubby is so good." Yun Ruoleng went into his embrace, her actions seeming to be extremely sticking to him.


    Jun Qingshang kissed her on the head, and then he leaned over and cried out in alarm. Just as he opened his mouth, his lips were already sealed tightly. Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, something was not right!


    Jun Qingshang reached out his hands to cover his eyes that were still in a daze, and used his free hand to pick at her clothes. Yun Ruoleng felt his body turn cold, and his entire body tremble a little as he got up and pulled the blanket over them.


    Hibiscus in the spring seduction, this night is destined to be a sleepless night.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng slept until noon before slowly getting up from the bed. He felt that his entire body was soft, as if it had been crushed by a truck, and his little face was red.


    "Miss, are you awake?" Peach Blossom, who was lying on the table and reading, heard the noise behind her. She turned her head and gave an ambiguous smile. "Before the prince leaves, he specifically asked this servant not to wake you up."


    Yun Ruoleng''s face sunk and asked: Where is he?


    "Ugh ¡­" The prince left the palace before dawn today. It seems like something has happened in the Imperial Palace, and he still hasn''t returned. "


    Peach Blossom''s words made Yun Ruoleng startled. Something had happened in the Imperial Palace?


    Peach Red took out a light blue long skirt and handed it over to Yun Ruoleng: "Miss, you should get up quickly! His Royal Highness said that he would take you for a walk after lunch. "


    Yun Ruoleng puzzledly frowned. Jun Qingshang wanted to bring him out? However, with this kind of calculation, there shouldn''t be any big issues in the palace. Thus, Yun Ruoleng''s attention was focused on the outing, his eyes sparkling as he stared at Peach Blossom: "Did he say where he was going?"


    "The Prince never said." Peach Red thought for a moment, then shook her head.


    "Sigh, he''s still playing mysterious. But I like it. " Yun Ruoleng smiled merrily, he got up and spread his arms, allowing Peach Blossom to put on her clothes. She was in a good mood, looking forward to Jun Qingshang bringing her somewhere else to play.


    "Miss, what was the bun for today?" Peach Red took a spin around Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at her. How would she know what chignon he was combing his hair into! Peach Red seemed to have thought of something, smiled in embarrassment, and then began to comb her makeup.


    Yun Ruoleng''s facial features were exquisite, the Peach Blossom was already so beautiful that she didn''t need to put on makeup. The light blue dress matched her skin color, making her look like a fairy.


    The weather today was not bad. The sun was shining brightly outside. Proud Sky was lying down in the courtyard, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon.


    Peach Blossom liked it a lot, when it was time to feed it, she would feed it on time. As a result, the relationship between Ao Tian and her became even better, to the point that Yun Ruoleng was beginning to enjoy the taste of food.


    "Princess." An Xiang and An Yue stood at the doorway, one on the left and one on the right. Looking at Yun Ruoleng who was staring at the arrogant sky without blinking, they called out somewhat puzzledly.


    Yun Ruoleng cleared her throat: "You guys go ahead and busy yourselves, I''ll take a walk. When the Duke comes back, let me know."


    "Yes sir!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s casual stroll made many people a little worried. After all ¡­


    "Have you noticed that the princess isn''t walking very well today?" An Xiang''s delicate eyes stared straight at Yun Ruoleng''s limping figure.


    Hearing that, An Yue''s eyes darkened, and slapped her head: "Kids are not to be looked at!"


    "An Yue!" An Xiang was immediately furious, she raised her fist and struck towards An Yue, but An Yue''s movements was extremely agile, he had allowed her one punch to miss.


    was completely unconvinced that his punch had missed, and wanted to continue the chase. However, he was speechless, as he continuously retreated, and in the end, he directly disappeared from the Water Spirit Pavilion with a point of his foot.


    An Xiang stomped his feet in anger, but was unable to do anything to An Yue.


    Actually, An Xiang was not the only one who noticed how awkward it was when walking. She was the one who felt it the most, and at first she thought it was nothing.


    After a while, her expression became even uglier, and she scolded Jun Qingshang a few hundred times in her heart.


    In the palace, Jun Qingshang brought the new scholar to his side and discussed the large and small matters of the imperial court with him. The scholar''s name was Qiao Ren Zhong, and he was twenty years old, so he could be considered young and promising.


    However, even though Qiao Zhong was considered above average in terms of looks, his personality was a little greedy. Jun Qingshang had already recognized it when he was talking to him, and he secretly laughed in his heart.


    After Jun Qingshang finished probing, he decided to return home to take a look at his wife. Who knew that she would sneeze a few times right after he boarded the carriage?


    An Ying followed behind him and frowned: "Elder, do I need to pass on the knowledge to the royal doctors?"


    Jun Qingshang''s handsome face darkened: "It''s fine."


    An Ying was not stupid, he knew that Master was embarrassed earlier and did not want to bring up the matter again.


    Because it was a sunny day today, Yun Ruoleng sat under the vine tree and started to cultivate. It was good to cultivate in his room, but the result of that was that the Yin Qi was becoming heavier and heavier. In the past, he would only absorb Spiritual Qi in dark places, but lacked the sun-like essence. Yun Ruoleng decided not to advance in this manner for the time being.


    When Jun Qingshang returned, he saw his wife sitting under the vines, and couldn''t help but smile. In order to not disturb her cultivation, Jun Qingshang got someone to make a chair for her, and placed it beside her, while supporting his head with it, he looked at her concentration.


    At first, Yun Ruoleng did not sense that something was amiss. But as time passed, he opened his eyes abruptly and saw a fiery gaze.


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng stared at him with her phoenix like eyes, "Why are you back?"


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang frowned slightly, "You don''t want me to come back?"


    Yun Ruoleng really wanted to nod his head and say yes, but when he looked at the beautiful eyes which was slightly narrowed on him, his heart trembled. When he thought about why he was in such a miserable state last night, Yun Ruoleng forcefully choked back: "What did the Prince say! How could I not want you back? "


    "But the expression on Ruo Er''s face means that I don''t want to see you." Jun Qingshang s finger, which was distinct from bones, lightly tapped on her little whale nose.

 C172

    Yun Ruoleng laughed awkwardly: "Nope."


    Jun Qingshang chuckled, and placed his forehead on Yun Ruoleng''s. "Silly girl, have you eaten?"


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head slightly, as if she had not used breakfast yet.


    Jun Qingshang reached out and grabbed her slender jade hand, then stood up and said to Peach Blossom and An Xiang who were beside her: "Get people to prepare."


    "Yes sir!" Peach Red blinked her eyes dubiously at Yun Ruoleng, then turned and left with a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face turned slightly red, the corners of her lips unconsciously raised, she felt that this life was really good. Jun Qingshang also smiled from the side. The atmosphere was peaceful and warm.


    After Yun Ruoleng entered the room, he suddenly remembered what Peach Blossom had said when he woke up today, and immediately asked: "Where are we going today?"


    "You should have come back today, but there aren''t many people in your family, so I''ll save this matter. Why don''t you take me to the mountains outside the city to relax?" Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace with a slight smile on his lips.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded her head, as if she understood something. In truth, she did not really understand the concept of returning to the door, since there was no such thing in the 21 worlds.


    Jun Qingshang did not know what Yun Ruoleng was thinking. Seeing Yun Ruoleng crawling around in his embrace, she thought that she was unhappy and immediately explained: "I don''t have any other intentions, I just thought that your marriage is a private marriage, and no one will be able to return."


    "What are you thinking!" Yun Ruoleng chuckled, "The more you think about it, the more you think about it. I am only sighing at how there are so many rules in this world."


    "This world?" Jun Qingshang suspiciously looked at Yun Ruoleng as a dark glint flashed past his eyes. Yun Ruoleng opened her mouth, but in the end she gave him a slight smile and did not say anything, because she really did not know how to explain this matter to him.


    Seeing that she did not say it, Jun Qingshang felt that the word was rather fresh. He chuckled, and his arms unconsciously tightened.


    After they finished their lunch, Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng set off for the outskirts.


    Yun Ruoleng wanted to test the feeling of riding a horse, and forcefully pulled Jun Qingshang without letting go. In the end, Jun Qingshang helplessly brought her on top of Treading on the White Traceless Snow, and Treading on the Snow Traces seemed to like her a lot. When he saw that she had done a few turns on the ground, he settled down.


    Such a cute little thing. Yun Ruoleng caressed the mane on its back lightly with her jade hands, her eyebrows curved and her phoenix eyes shining brightly, making her look extremely adorable.


    The scenery outside the city was indeed much better. Although it was not as beautiful as the scenery outside the city, there was still a unique beauty inside. Although Jun Qingshang was not Xiu Mu today, he still removed all the positions from his body and took Yun Ruoleng for a stroll. He was like a child in the martial arts world, bringing his beloved with him.


    It was just that Jun Qingshang was never able to act as free and easy as the martial artists. He had a group of An Ying Guards behind him to ensure that he would be able to complete any missions he wanted.


    Yun Ruoleng stood on top of a mountain that reached into the clouds, looked around and asked: "What kind of mountain is this?"


    "This is the most famous mountain in the outskirts of the city, Phoenix Mountain." Jun Qingshang led his horse and walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and stood, "Take the phoenix Nirvana Intent."


    "There must be a story." Yun Ruoleng withdrew his gaze from the top of the mountain, his eyes shining as he stared at Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang chuckled, and lovingly tapped her nose: "This is a volcano, and a living one at that. It''s only because of the formation that the capital is safe and sound."


    Formation master is truly incredible. Yun Ruoleng silently praised it in his heart. After all, the twentieth century was so developed, and not a single living person was able to control the volcanic eruptions.


    An active volcano usually had a natural hot spring on it. Moreover, looking at the lush and verdant trees around Phoenix Mountain, it seemed as if there were many living creatures within. The more Yun Ruoleng thought about it, the more excited he became. He could not help but pull at Jun Qingshang''s sleeves: "Your Highness, let''s go in to take a look?"


    "Alright!" Jun Qingshang smiled and nodded. His doting gaze almost made Yun Ruoleng sick to death.


    Yun Ruoleng avoided her eyes quickly and skipped back into the mountain forest. It was only then that Jun Qingshang realised that Yun Ruoleng also had this side of a little girl. Thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that Yun Ruoleng was not very old, but she was very decisive and it was easy to neglect her age.


    Yun Ruoleng was truly happy. Ever since she came to this world, it was the first time she went out so easily. The last time she went out was because she was in a hurry, and because she was injured, she did not have much time to appreciate it.


    However, today was different. Although this place was not filled with flowers, it was full of autumn and she could still enjoy it.


    Yun Ruoleng looked around with her hands behind her back, looking at everything like a country bumpkin entering the city.


    Moreover, the climate of this Phoenix Mountain was indeed quite unique. The temperature here was at least five to six degrees higher than the temperature outside.


    At the end of the small road was a pond, Yun Ruoleng walked to the side of the pond, and watched the water in the pond emit faint smoke, there were also a few lotus leaves and one or two budding lotuses.


    Yun Ruoleng squatted down, and the moment her little hand touched the water surface, her eyes lit up: "This is actually a hot spring."


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang smiled and nodded. Seeing her so happy, his mood improved a lot.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled faintly at him, her small hands moving in the pool. Only then did she get up, and the corner of her skirt had been accidentally wet from playing around. Jun Qingshang''s gaze landed on the corner of her skirt, and with a slight frown, extended his arm to pull her into his embrace.


    Only now did Yun Ruoleng realize that the corner of her skirt was wet, but she didn''t mind.


    Jun Qingshang pulled at her, his brows slightly knitted: "You will catch a cold."


    "Your Highness worries too much." How could I catch a cold at this point? And am I that fragile? " Yun Ruoleng stuck out her tongue mischievously, smiling in a charming manner.


    Jun Qingshang shook his head helplessly, seeing Yun Ruoleng who was bounding forward, he chuckled and quickly gave chase. Yun Ruoleng seemed to be playing hide-and-seek with him, and in a moment, he had disappeared without a trace.


    Jun Qingshang frowned, his gaze sweeping around once, and looking at a certain direction, he smiled: "You better obediently come out, otherwise this king will leave."


    The direction Jun Qingshang was looking at just happened to be the direction of where Yun Ruoleng was hiding. Having his good mood exposed in a single sentence, Yun Ruoleng was instantly in a bad mood, "How do you know?"


    Jun Qingshang raised his brows, "Because you''re stupid."


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng fumed and pouted her lips. Her phoenix eyes were as big as bells.


    Would this straight guy try to coax a girl to be happy?!


    Jun Qingshang laughed lightly, walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and pulled her into his arms. "Alright, alright, let''s enjoy the beautiful scenery of Phoenix Mountain together."

 C173

    Yun Ruoleng snorted and did not reject him. The two of them held hands as they walked towards the peak of the Phoenix Mountain. The more Yun Ruoleng walked, the more surprised he became. It was like spring on the mountain all year round, and at this time, the flowers were still flourishing on the mountain. A piece of pink and tender white flower petal covered the mountain path, and when his feet stepped on the soft and soft flower petals, he smiled exceptionally happily.


    Seeing that, Jun Qingshang also revealed a smile, the slightly drunk air carried a sweet taste, warming to the heart.


    Yun Ruoleng and the rest arrived at the top of the mountain, and it was almost sunset. She was so tired that she lied on the lawn at the top of the mountain and laid on Jun Qingshang''s lap, lazily stretching like a cat.


    Jun Qingshang gently wiped the perspiration off her face with his well-defined fingers and considerately covered her with a cape.


    "When I went up the mountain, I found that the mountain road was very clean. Is there anyone cleaning it?" Yun Ruoleng said as he adjusted a more comfortable position.


    Jun Qingshang tapped her nose lightly and nodded with a smile. "Phoenix Mountain belongs to the imperial family.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something, but found it embarrassing to say it. Jun Qingshang saw her body move out, and could not help but chuckle: "Do you have any other questions?"


    "That... Is that what the Emperor agreed to when we came in? " Yun Ruoleng suddenly thought of how the little shota had been tricked by this big bad wolf. He felt that it was both interesting and painful in his heart.


    Jun Qingshang scoffed, "What does Ruo Er think?"


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched, and he silently prayed for Jun Rushi. How could the little shota defeat the big bad wolf?


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang stayed on top of the summit of Phoenix Mountain for the entire night. With the sky as a blanket, the feeling of using the ground as a bed was indeed very good.


    A quarter of an hour later, Jun Qingshang, who was in his embrace, woke up. A white line had appeared on the originally pitch-black horizon, and Yun Ruoleng rubbed his eyes as he looked at his surroundings in a blurry manner.


    When he saw the white belly of the fish in the sky, Yun Ruoleng was so excited that he almost sat up. It was because Jun Qingshang''s hands were tightly clenched that he continued to lie in his embrace, but he couldn''t resist saying, "Look, it''s sunrise."


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang pressed against the top of Yun Ruoleng''s hair and even without looking, he could feel her excitement.


    The morning sun rose from the horizon and gradually became smaller, from red to a glaring gold color. Yun Ruoleng unconsciously raised the corner of his mouth and covered his eyes with one hand as he laughed: "It''s getting late, Your Highness, let''s go back!"


    "Alright." Jun Qingshang gently kissed her lips before nodding his head. He held Yun Ruoleng''s hand and walked down the mountain.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly stopped in her tracks, her gaze landing on Jun Qingshang''s face, her mouth pouting a little.


    Jun Qingshang puzzledly frowned: "What''s wrong?"


    "I''m tired!" Yun Ruoleng stared at Jun Qingshang and pouted.


    Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng and smiled. He bent his body and picked her up.


    "Sigh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng screamed in shock as he wrapped his arms around Jun Qingshang''s neck.


    Jun Qingshang chuckled. "Go down the mountain."


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, then her eyes curved as she blissfully leaned into Jun Qingshang''s embrace. An Ying and Peach Blossom who were behind them glanced at each other, and quietly retreated a step or two, creating a better space for the two of them.


    Jun Qingshang carried Yun Ruoleng all the way down to the foot of the mountain. A luxurious carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain. Jun Qingshang did not speak, and directly carried her to the front of the carriage. After placing her on the carriage, he then said: "The morning wind is cold, let''s take the carriage back."


    Yun Ruoleng felt a warmth in his heart. Jun Qingshang seemed cold on the surface, but was actually a person who was cold on the outside but hot on the inside. He was good to a single person, so he could definitely give her all the good things in the world.


    However, once he entered the carriage, Yun Ruoleng was completely stunned. The walls of the carriage were filled with gems, and inside the carriage, anything could buy a lot of gems. Even the blanket on the floor could only be bought with thousands of gold taels.


    Jun Qingshang looked at the stupefied Yun Ruoleng, extended his arm and pulled her into his embrace: "What is Ruo Er thinking, for him to be so serious?"


    Tsk, she must have married a fighter jet from the rich!


    Yun Ruoleng came back to reality and looked at Jun Qingshang, smiling as he shook his head: "Nothing, let''s go!"


    The carriage slowly started to move. Yun Ruoleng leaned into Jun Qingshang''s embrace, her small head slightly moved, "When I return, I will start to investigate the matter of big sister''s murder."


    Jun Qingshang narrowed her eyes: "This matter is of great concern to you. If you need anything, just use An Ying."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, but when she thought about it, she felt a sharp pain in her heart. Although she had her suspicions, she did not have any concrete evidence.


    Jun Qingshang did not know what Yun Ruoleng was thinking, but seeing her frown, his fingers could not help but smooth her bones. He opened his mouth wanting to say a few words to comfort her, but did not know what to say.


    The horse carriage headed towards the capital. After entering the capital, hearing the human voices, Yun Ruoleng could not help but pull open the curtains and look outside.


    "Want to get out of the car for a while?" Jun Qingshang couldn''t help but ask when he saw her energetic look.


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head. She was just watching for fun, but would never take the initiative to join in the fun. Jun Qingshang saw that she did not seem to be in the mood to say much, so he didn''t say much more.


    An Ying got off the horse and Peach Red took the initiative to open the carriage for Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng. Jun Qingshang immediately walked out from the carriage with Yun Ruoleng in her arms. Without saying a word, she directly entered the Regent¡¯s Mansion.


    The moment Yun Ruoleng and the rest stepped into the Regent¡¯s Mansion, there were some people who hurriedly ran over to see her, saying that they had something important to tell her. Although Yun Ruoleng was suspicious, he still got the servant to bring him in quickly.


    During the entire time he was waiting, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes slightly narrowed. If it was really him, cooperating wasn''t out of the question.


    Very quickly, the attendant brought back a man in a green robe. Yun Ruoleng looked at the man, and the smile on his lips became even wider: "New top scholar Qiao Ren Zhong, his temperament is extraordinary. He is indeed a rare talent."


    "Princess, you flatter me." In truth, he was stunned when he saw Yun Ruoleng''s face when he entered the door. He was not from the capital, but he knew a lot about the Regent Prince''s wife and some rumors.

 C174

    For example, this woman was the Seventh Miss of Minister¡¯s Mansion, she was ugly, had a bad character and such things, but when he looked at her for the first time just now, Qiao Ren Zhong''s heart was about to jump out of his throat.


    She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his twenty years of life. Qiao Ren Zhong had to admit, regardless if it was her temperament or appearance, Yun Ruoleng was definitely not the woman rumored to be.


    An Xiang, who was standing behind Yun Ruoleng, was no longer happy.


    "En..." Girl ¡­ "On..."


    "This concubine is different from the rumors. Qiao Zheng Yuan will naturally take a few more glances." Yun Ruoleng did not seem to mind, he waved his hand at An Xiang and said, "Go down first!"


    "But ¡­" An Xiang looked at Qiao Ren Zhong worriedly.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t know why she had to guard against him, but Yun Ruoleng gave her a meaningful glance, instantly interrupting her speech. She could only obediently walk out of the room with her head lowered.


    "Please take a seat." Yun Ruoleng made an inviting gesture towards Qiao Ren Zhong, then slowly said: "You better think carefully, once you step on this road. you might lose the opportunity to be a good son-in-law. "


    "Princess will not disappoint me." Qiao Ren let out a light laugh. He could clearly see that this Regent''s Consort was simply a tiger with claws. However, no one knew, so following her might be a good thing.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, his expression stiffened, this man really knew how to bargain, but this is good too, giving him the benefit is better for his people, after using it, he can throw it away.


    However, there was also something bad about it. If they didn''t have enough trust between them, the cooperation wouldn''t go smoothly.


    Qiao Ren Zhong saw that Yun Ruoleng remained silent after thinking for a long time, and became anxious, "Princess, are you still not satisfied with this one?"


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head slightly, "I think the enemy of your enemy is your friend. Since you''ve decided that as the future son-in-law of Minister¡¯s Mansion, Qiao Yifan should do something, I think there''s no need for this concubine to say anymore!"


    Qiao Ren Zhong was surprised for a moment, and quickly expressed: "I will break off all relations with the Minister¡¯s Mansion!"


    "No." Yun Ruoleng chuckled. Breaking off the relationship had destroyed her plans, so how could she allow him to do that?


    Yun Ruoleng lifted the teacup, took a small sip, and said: "Not only will we not end the engagement, we will also have to treat Yun Yueyu better by several folds."


    "Why?" Qiao Ren Zhong felt strange, he did not know what Yun Ruoleng had hidden in his gourd.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled without speaking a word, a hint of interest flashed past her delicate phoenix eyes: "Do you only have the heart to let a woman toy with you? Moreover, will Minister¡¯s Mansion make it so easy for you to end the engagement? "


    Qiao Ren Zhong''s body shivered. Indeed, if he did not find someone who could be his backer, he would be eaten by the people from Minister¡¯s Mansion before he even had a bone remaining.


    "I know." Qiao Ren Zhong had thought through this matter clearly, and before bidding Yun Ruoleng farewell, Yun Ruoleng had not forgotten to remind him of this. When Qiao Ren Zhong heard this, his eyes lit up, and he turned to leave.


    Once he left, An Xiang ran into the room in a hurry. Seeing Yun Ruoleng leaning on the imperial concubine''s chair, leisurely tasting the tea, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. Suddenly, a burst of cold wind blew over. Yun Ruoleng frowned, and looked at the black clothed man that appeared in front of him: "You also have something to say?"


    An Yue nodded his head and shook it. He did not understand and frowned in displeasure: "Do you have it, or not?"


    "He means you go out, he says." Yun Ruoleng unhappily glared at An Xiang, and then looked at An Yue. "If there''s anything you want to say, just say it.


    An Yue thought about it and then said, "Your highness said that the envoy will come to the Heaven''s Opening Assembly in the future. There might be a banquet tonight, so I asked the wangfei to prepare first."


    "Huh?" Yun Ruoleng was completely dumbstruck, as he mumbled these words.


    She was confused. Was this person shy or shy?


    Yun Ruoleng had already heard about the matter of the emissary coming to the Heaven''s Initiation, but no one had formally mentioned it to her, so for a moment, she really did not know what to do.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes swept across An Xiang and her body once, then shook his head helplessly: "An Xiang and Cui Ying will take care of this matter, as for you ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng looked at him curiously: "Is there anything else you want to say?"


    She did not believe that this matter would cause An Yue to be hesitant to speak.


    An Yue stared blankly for a moment, then knew that there were some things that couldn''t be hidden from Yun Ruoleng. He looked at him with a conflicted look on his face: "Are you sure you want to hear it?"


    "Of course!" Yun Ruoleng laughed unhappily, "Is there anything that you don''t dare to listen to?"


    "Cough!" An Yue cleared her throat, "The Minister¡¯s Mansion has been suppressed by the Duke, I didn''t expect the Duke Feng and the Minister¡¯s Mansion to join hands ¡­"


    "Rebellion?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, "So what if we are joining hands? "The Wind King''s Mansion is not enough to make things difficult for His Highness. I''m afraid that the Fourth Prince will not let go of this opportunity!"


    "Wangfei is smart!" An Yue could not help but nod towards Yun Ruoleng, "Indeed, so the Duke told this subordinate to ask for your opinion on the wangfei''s matter."


    "I don''t have any ideas for now." Yun Ruoleng shook her head. She really didn''t know what to do about this matter. She didn''t know if Ol ''Three and Ol'' Four were working together to benefit her.


    Yun Ruoleng waved her hand towards An Yue, indicating that she knew about it. Right now, she was not only Yun Ruoleng, she was also Jun Qingshang''s wangfei. Naturally, they should advance and retreat together.


    After Yun Ruoleng sent An Yue away, he leaned against the imperial concubine''s chair, staring at the rooftop with half-closed eyes, even Peach Blossom didn''t notice him coming in.


    Tao Hong walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and stood still, and then blessed her. "Miss, Miss Yang is here."


    Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned as she returned to her senses. Looking at Peach Blossom, she asked suspiciously, "Who did you say is here?"


    "Miss Yang of the Great Sima Family!" Tao Hong extended her hand to help Yun Ruoleng but was rejected by him.


    Yun Ruoleng was slightly startled, and his brows instantly rose: "Ling''er is here? "Then why don''t you invite me in?"


    Peach Blessing left quickly, the corners of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, looking like he was in a good mood. Yang Zi Ling skipped into the room, just in time to see a smiling Yun Ruoleng come out: "Big sister Regent¡¯s Mansion, are you used to living here?"


    Yun Ruoleng pulled her and nodded: "Of course I''m used to it."


    "As long as you''re used to it!" Yang Zi Ling pouted, "Just now, when I came, I was stopped by a guard at the entrance. It was so infuriating!"


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, the guard at the door blocking him, most likely because of the Regent¡¯s Mansion, no one could casually come in and out.


    Laughing, Yun Ruoleng comforted her by patting the back of her hand: "When you go out, just ask Peach Blossom to follow you to the Palace. But why did you come this time? "

 C175

    "Sister, other than worrying about proper business, don''t you think about other things?" Yang Zi Ling unhappily snorted coldly.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed and shook his head, the little girl was probably looking for him to play, it was a pity that she did not have the time to play with him. Yun Ruoleng silently sighed in his heart, raised his hand and patted her shoulder: "I got it, you want to take a look at this Regent¡¯s Mansion, right?"


    Yang Zi''s eyes lit up, he did not even need to say anything to reveal his feelings. Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "Let''s go, I''ll bring you out to take a look, but at that time, don''t regret it."


    Yang Zi Ling tilted her head, and stared at Yun Ruoleng in puzzlement.


    Yun Ruoleng gave her a mysterious smile and held her hand as they walked out. Because not everyone could casually enter the Regent¡¯s Mansion, even the ladies with the Great Sima Clan''s royal bloodline could not enter. So, Yang Zi Zi was truly happy that she could freely play around.


    At the beginning, Yang Zi Ling had maintained her doubts, but after walking to the so-called garden, she really regretted it. Looking at the garden that was filled with grass and trees, how could Yang Zi Zi, who looked like a rabbit, like this?


    Yang Zi suddenly looked at Yun Ruoleng with a strange gaze. Yun Ruoleng''s scalp tingled and he couldn''t help but frown: "What happened to you again?"


    Yang Zi Ling pointed at the green flowers and asked, "Big Sister Yun, can you bear to see a garden like this?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze swept across the flower garden once, and stared fixedly at Yang Zi Ling: "Green is good for health, compared to the beauty of the flowers and plants, I like the greenery here more."


    Green is good for health? The corner of Yang Zi Zi''s mouth twitched. She suddenly felt that Big Sister Yun was lying and didn''t make a rough draft!


    Seeing that she did not believe him, Yun Ruoleng shook her head helplessly. She also wanted to explain, but she couldn''t possibly teach her the things of the 21st century! Even teaching took time, because there were too many things involved in a single sentence.


    ideas, opinions, preferences... There are differences.


    Yang Zi grabbed onto Yun Ruoleng''s sleeves and said: "Elder sister, tomorrow I will have the gardener send some flowers over. You have to take care of this garden properly, this way, you can have fun things when I come, right?"


    Yun Ruoleng laughed when she heard him, but in that instant, she quickly rejected him: "No need, I think this is good."


    "Sigh ¡­" Yang Zi Ling pursed her lips, knowing in her heart that saying anything more was useless, so she didn''t continue to persuade him. The two of them strolled around the courtyard for a while, and only after that did the Great Sima Palace send someone over to fetch him. Only then did they reluctantly bid their farewell to Yun Ruoleng.


    Seeing that pitiful little face peek out from the carriage, Yun Ruoleng immediately laughed.


    When Yun Ruoleng sent Yang Zi Ling back to the Water Spirit Pavilion, he met a black and purple robed Jun Qingshang sitting under a grape arbor reading a book. Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly: "Your Highness, have you finished taking care of things?"


    Jun Qingshang put down the book in his hands and smiled at her, then extended his hand out to signal her to go over: "Where is Ruo Er?"


    Yun Ruoleng ran over to his side while holding her skirt, and placed her hand on his big palm. "Giving her to Yang Zi Zi Zi Zi, your majesty still hasn''t replied to my words!" As he spoke, he sat on Jun Qingshang''s body and wrapped his arms around Jun Qingshang''s neck and asked while grinning.


    Jun Qingshang''s expression darkened, his gaze swept across Yun Ruoleng''s face and nodded: "Done, but there are some things that cannot be finished in a day and a night."


    Yun Ruoleng tightened his grip on Jun Qingshang: "I''ll face it together with you."


    Jun Qingshang''s expression was slightly startled, he lowered his head to look at the serious and serious little wife, and the hand around her waist unconsciously tightened, his eyes brimming with an earth-shattering smile: "Good!"


    "Your Highness has been worrying about the cooperation between Prince Feng and Prince Ling and the Lan family, right?" Yun Ruoleng was straight to the point, Jun Qingshang nodded, his gaze fixated on her exceptional appearance.


    Jun Qingshang charmingly smiled and moved her lips. Jun Qingshang was stunned, even though he didn''t hear it clearly, he understood that Yun Ruoleng had made them enemies. It wasn''t that he hadn''t thought of this method, but they were in a mutually beneficial relationship. As long as their interests weren''t involved, the two definitely wouldn''t go against each other.


    How could Yun Ruoleng not understand this logic? That was why she suggested to Jun Qingshang, was because she understood. She wanted to use this method to isolate the Lan family.


    Yun Ruo Leng raised an eyebrow at Jun Qingsheng. "The Lan family is a hundred years old family, and the Heaven''s Enlightenment family is attached to Prince Feng. This is not a good omen, so the first step is to have Prince Feng abandon the Lan family." It''s time to change families and take a seat.


    Jun Qingshang chuckled, and pointed to her little whale nose with his finger: "Indeed so, I wonder if my beloved concubine has a way to explain it?"


    "Nope." Yun Ruoleng frowned, but then he relaxed and smiled to Jun Qingshang: "But there is always a way, let''s think about it again."


    Yun Ruoleng''s intelligence made Jun Qingshang feel much more relaxed. He didn''t know why, but as long as he entered Water Spirit Pavilion, he felt that he didn''t have any fatigue left in his body. Jun Qingshang buried his head against Yun Ruoleng''s neck, and acknowledged it softly.


    Suddenly, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up. "Your Highness, how about we lure the matter of our sister''s death to the entire Lan family?"


    "Assassinating the Virgin Mary is a crime that involves the extermination of the Nine Clans. Even if we pardon her, she will be despised by the world. However, at present, there is no evidence against her." It was not that Jun Qingshang did not know of Yun Ruoleng''s suspicions, but if he said those words without any evidence, it would be hard for him to convince the masses.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head: "It''s not like there''s no progress at all, at least I captured all the servants by big sister''s side, other than Cui Ying."


    "That girl ¡­" Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, "You don''t doubt me?"


    "There is no need to doubt." Yun Ruoleng''s gaze landed on Jun Qingshang''s handsome face. Looking at his slightly sunken little face, he thought to himself in amusement, "She has lived with big sister for more than ten years, why did she have to wait until now to make a move?"


    "What if he was threatened?" Jun Qingshang''s expression turned gloomy.


    "No way!" Yun Ruoleng said resolutely. Cui Ying was an orphan and she did not commit any heinous acts. Why would she be threatened by others? Furthermore, with Cui Ying being so cautious and prudent, it is simply impossible to give others a chance to threaten her. "


    Jun Qingshang frowned, he did not expect Cui Ying''s position to be so high in his heart.


    Yun Ruoleng lied in Jun Qingshang''s embrace, her small hands continuously playing with the piece of dragon jade, her small face taut: "Your Highness, there is no need to suspect anyone, so I will not investigate her."


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, his eyes squinted and he did not speak anymore.


    Yun Ruoleng did not know what Jun Qingshang was thinking, and she was thinking about what to do next.


    Yun Shicheng had set his eyes on Qiao Ren Zhong, the position of the son-in-law for Minister¡¯s Mansion was reserved for him, thus, it was not impossible for him to enter the inner circle of Minister¡¯s Mansion.

 C176

    Minister¡¯s Mansion, Explanation Pavilion.


    Yun Yueyu was dressed in a peach-colored long dress, with a peach-colored shoulder jacket and a pink peony dress. Her face was covered with a faint dress, and the originally beautiful Yun Yueyu was now even more captivating.


    "Miss, the master said that he would definitely not let you regret meeting him in the future. He must be handsome and extraordinary." When Rui Ling inserted the last jade hairpin into Yun Yueyu''s hair, she smiled and said.


    Yun Yueyu snorted, he did not say anything and stood up to walk around in front of the mirror, feeling that it was appropriate, he went back inside the courtyard.


    "I heard from my mother that Big Bro is coming back?" The corner of Yun Yueyu''s mouth raised slightly, his watery almond-shaped eyes raised slightly, looking like he was in a good mood.


    Rui Ling was stunned for a moment, then quickly lowered her head, her face slightly flushed, softly replying, "Yes!"


    The Yun Family''s eldest young master, Yun Jun, had an outstanding appearance and was the dream lover of all the servants in the Residence of Yun. It was a pity that this young master had a cold personality and spoke less with others.


    And this young master only had this little sister in his heart. If anyone bullied her, then he would be in a hurry. Yun Yueyu had suffered at Yun Ruoleng''s place and naturally hoped that his brother would return to take revenge for her.


    Yun Yueyu snorted lightly, and then brought Rui Ling to the main hall.


    At the same time, a low key carriage slowly stopped at the Regent¡¯s Mansion gate, and a white clothed man walked out of the carriage. The man was as gentle as jade, and it was difficult to conceal the fact that he was a noble. The guard did not dare to delay any further. He clasped his hands at the man and asked, "May I ask who is Young Master looking for?"


    The man glanced at the signboard written in the four words Regent¡¯s Mansion, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised: "Is the Regent''s Consort here?"


    "Esteemed wangfei ¡­" The guards looked at each other. This man was actually looking for an imperial concubine, so they didn''t dare make the decision to place him in their midst. After all, they, the prince, held the imperial concubine in high regard.


    "I am the Sixth Young Master of the Yun Palace, Yun Yi." Yun Yi was dressed all in white, and there was a light smile on his face. His eyes, which were filled with a smile that was not a smile, seemed to be able to see through people''s thoughts.


    The moment the guard heard who he was, both their faces immediately became ugly. One of the guards brandished a stick in his hand and said, "Let''s go! We do not welcome people from the Yun Minister¡¯s Mansion! "


    "The Regent¡¯s Mansion and the Prime Minister''s Palace have always been on good terms. Not only am I, Yun Yi, the concubine son of Minister Yun, I am also the son of the Prime Minister''s only younger sister." Yun Yi was not angry because of the guard''s words, but instead explained with a chuckle.


    The young master had a good temper, and the guards didn''t dare to do anything to him. With the addition of the Prime Minister''s residence, the two guards were in a difficult situation for a short while before rushing into the mansion.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng finished his cultivation and came out of his room, he heard someone reporting that Yun Yi had returned.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, then thinking of Mrs. Luo, his brows raised: "Peach Blossom, prepare to bathe and change clothes!"


    "Miss, Sixth Young Master has been gone for a few years. I''m afraid he won''t leave this time. If there''s anything you need help with, you can find someone to help you." "In the past, only Sixth Young Master and Third Miss were good to you when you were in the Palace. It''s just that the Sixth Young Master didn''t leave the Palace at such a young age, and didn''t protect you for many years."


    After hearing Peach Blossom''s words, Yun Ruoleng unconsciously furrowed his brows: "Are you saying that Yun Yi was really worried about me in the past?"


    "Isn''t it?" After Peach Red prepared hot water for Yun Ruoleng, she smiled and began to tell him about Yun Ruoleng and Yun Yi''s childhood.


    At first, Yun Ruoleng was unfamiliar with Yun Yi, but after Peach Blossom continued to talk, she finally had a certain understanding of Yun Yi. Furthermore, for some reason, when Yun Ruoleng came back, Yun Ruoleng was extremely excited.


    Yun Ruoleng thought, maybe the original owner really cared about this Sixth Brother!


    She had changed into a light purple long dress with a pear blossom on the outside and a light purple phoenix Huang Teng''s flying cape that covered her long and slender neck suddenly became extremely vivid.


    Peach had tied a flying bun for her, and there was a purple flower drawn on her forehead. Her delicate face was covered in makeup, making her look very beautiful. Peach was very satisfied with her actions.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at her reflection in the mirror, her eyebrows slightly raised: "Didn''t you say you could do it as you please? Why are you doing this again? "


    "Miss has to go see Sixth Young Master, so you have to dress beautifully so that Sixth Young Master won''t worry about Miss." Peach Blossom turned a purple jade hairpin into Yun Ruoleng''s hair, looking at the purple dressed Yun Ruoleng, she nodded in satisfaction: "Let''s go Miss."


    "Why do I feel like you''re even more excited than I am?" Yun Ruoleng chuckled, stood up and walked out.


    Outside the door, Yun Yi heard the sound of the door opening. He turned around and saw a lady dressed in a purple dress standing at the entrance.


    After the two of them looked at each other for a long time, Yun Ruoleng smiled lightly at him. "When did Big Brother Yi come back?


    "I traveled around the world with Master, and I stayed wherever I went. Even if I told you, you wouldn''t necessarily be able to find me." Yun Yi chuckled, his gaze landed on her extremely beautiful face, and his brows knitted, "My family has a woman who has just grown up, but unfortunately I didn''t come back to participate in her wedding. Has Leng Er ever blamed me?"


    "Never." The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth lifted slightly. In his heart, he was mumbling that he didn''t even know who he was, but looking at him at that moment, he wondered why his heart was beating so fast.


    Yun Yi stood up and pulled Yun Ruoleng''s arm, and after looking up and down for a while, he sighed a breath of relief, "Looks like Your Highness has raised you well, compared to enduring the pain at Minister¡¯s Mansion, I really hope for you to get married soon, but I''m afraid that your life won''t be good.


    Yun Ruoleng lowered her phoenix eyes. It seemed that this person spoke the same words as Peach Blossom, and really cared a lot about Yun Ruoleng''s little sister.


    "I already know that Third Sister is the Virgin Mary. I''m sure Father won''t dare to make things difficult for you!" Yun Yi pulled Yun Ruoleng down and laughed.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression instantly changed. When he mentioned Yun Yueyu, he could not help but sigh. "Big Brother Yi''s information is long out of date."


    "Hmm?" Yun Yi''s face that was as warm as jade revealed a trace of doubt, "What happened?"


    "The Holy Mother died early, so I will break off all relations with the Yun Family."


    Yun Ruoleng''s words were like a rock falling into water, splashing water everywhere.


    The Yun Yi who was originally as calm as water instantly exploded. "Father chased you out of the Yun Palace?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded and looked at Yun Yi suspiciously. Isn''t that what she meant by the main point?


    Yun Yi had never been on good terms with Yun Shicheng, so when Yun Ruoleng saw him clench his fist in anger, he was no longer as warm as jade.

 C177

    "I''m fine." Yun Yi forced a smile at her. Yun Ruoleng was not stupid, she could see the word "angry" in his eyes. Yun Ruoleng was a little worried and frowned.


    Yun Ruoleng wanted to open his mouth and comfort him with a few words, but then he heard a series of footsteps outside the door. Yun Ruoleng''s gaze turned towards the source of the voice, only to see a black-cloaked Jun Qingshang walking in with a blue-clothed youth behind him. It was not that Yun Ruoleng did not know this person, it was Luo Yifan who had helped him speak up at the Hundred Flowers Banquet.


    "Greetings, consort."


    Luo Yifan''s appearance was somewhat similar to Yun Yi''s, adding that the two of them both carried a aura that was as warm as jade, Yun Ruoleng liked it a lot.


    Yun Yi stood up and cupped his hands towards Jun Qingshang: "Your Highness, how have you been?"


    "How have you been, Young Master Yi?" Jun Qingshang stared at Yun Yi with a provocative gaze and a majestic pressure charged over.


    Yun Ruoleng only frowned, a look of disdain appeared on Yun Yi''s warm jade-like face: "The Regent is powerful, I only came to see my sister, and he has already made you so anxious. If I bring him away one day, I wonder what the Regent will do?"


    "How dare you!" Jun Qingshang''s handsome face immediately darkened, aside from the little wild cat, this was the first person to blatantly provoke him.


    Yun Ruoleng felt his heart beating faster, not because he was excited, but because he was startled by the roar.


    Standing at the side, Luo Yifan looked as if he was watching a good show. Yun Ruoleng gave him a look, but he completely ignored him.


    Yun Ruoleng was unable to do anything but cough, "Your Highness, Big Brother Yi is my relative, you are my husband."


    The meaning behind his words was that you are the person I will be guarding for the rest of my life. Only then did Jun Qingshang''s complexion improve a little, and he chuckled towards Yun Yi: "Ruo Er is right, we are a family."


    Yun Yi turned his head to look at Yun Ruoleng who was smiling at him, and sighed helplessly.


    This girl was still the same as before, enduring everything that happened.


    Yun Yi returned, but did not return to the Minister¡¯s Mansion, and instead went to the Prime Minister''s Estate with Luo Yifan. After this matter spread to the Minister¡¯s Mansion, Yun Shicheng scolded his unfilial son, but after scolding him, he did not dare to do anything to him. Because his son had gone to the Prime Minister''s Palace, the Mrs. Luo was a little worried. At night, he sent someone to call for his son, but only called his servant, Yun Yi''s, back.


    "Mu He, is Yi''er alright?" Although Mrs. Luo had not seen her son, she was still very happy to have news of him having a son.


    "Madam, you do not need to worry. I invite you to come to room number 4 tomorrow at noon to have a chat with you." With a straight face, Mu He respectfully replied to the Mrs. Luo.


    When Mrs. Luo heard him, she became extremely excited and quickly sent him away. After sending people to prepare the things, she had not seen her son for many years, if not for Yun Ruoleng''s marriage, she would not have been able to call him back.


    Within the Water Spirit Pavilion of the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Yun Ruoleng leaned into Jun Qingshang and the two of them talked about Yun Yi. Although Jun Qingshang didn''t want to talk about the man who was preparing to snatch his woman away at this moment, seeing Yun Ruoleng''s hope for his relatives, he couldn''t bear to hurt her. He could only tell her a little about Yun Yi''s actions in the underworld all these years.


    Yun Ruoleng was stunned, her small hands grabbed onto Jun Qingshang''s collar as she stared unblinkingly at Jun Qingshang, "Your Highness, are you sure he''s that powerful?"


    "Naturally." Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, took back his collar and asked, "Why is Ruo Er so excited?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed, how could he not be excited?


    In the future, once Regent¡¯s Mansion appeared, and he would even have the protection of a big brother who doted on him, it would be such a great thing!


    When Jun Qingshang saw her bright eyes, his entire being turned pale. With a cold gaze, he lowered his head and gave her a punitive kiss on her lips. Yun Ruoleng wanted to struggle, but he was firmly held in Jun Qingshang''s embrace and was being crushed.


    Yun Yi and Luo Yifan returned to the Prime Minister''s Palace together. The two of them did not speak for a long time, and upon arriving at the Prime Minister''s Palace, Luo Yifan turned around and patted Yun Yi''s shoulder. "Father is waiting for you in the study, go!"


    Yun Yi nodded and walked towards the door of the study. The butler was standing at the door, and upon seeing the person who walked in, he cupped his hands and quickly stepped aside.


    "Come in." Just as Yun Yi was about to knock on the door, a powerful voice came out from inside.


    Yun Yi frowned, and opened the door. There was someone standing at the window with his back facing inside, and what Yun Yi saw was his back. When Yun Yi walked into the room, the door was instantly shut: "When did you come back?"


    "It''s noon today." Yun Yi cupped his hands towards the man, a trace of confusion appeared on his warm jade-like face. He was not very close with this uncle of his, and was even a little distant from him.


    The man turned around. A face similar to Luo Fan''s had a few wrinkles, and a pair of eagle-like sharp eyes stared coldly at Yun Yi: "Since you''re back, why didn''t you return to the Prime Minister''s Estate?"


    "I''m going to Regent¡¯s Mansion to see Xiao Qi." Yun Yi said indifferently.


    Yet Prime Minister Luo chuckled and said nothing. He turned around and continued to stare out the window.


    Yun Yi lowered his head, and did not dare to say a word. The room was unusually quiet, Prime Minister Luo withdrew his gaze from the scenery outside, and turned to look at: "Have you seen your mother before?"


    "Never." Upon mentioning his mother, Yun Yi subconsciously looked at Prime Minister Luo. His mother was born from a very large family, and they were siblings with the same egg, but their fates were completely different. His mother was only an aunt of the Yun Mansion, while his own uncle was the Prime Minister who was below tens of thousands.


    When Prime Minister Luo heard this, his expression immediately became extremely unsightly. "Why aren''t you going?"


    "Uncle, it''s not that I don''t want to see mother, it''s that I don''t want to see that heartless father. I''ve already made an appointment with mother, we''ll meet tomorrow at the First Pin Restaurant." Yun Yi cupped his hands, completely unaffected by his respectful attitude.


    Hearing this, Prime Minister Luo''s expression became much better. "Go early tomorrow morning, don''t make your mother wait."


    Yun Yi nodded his head. It was true that his mother was not having a good time at the Yun Manor, but she could not casually take her away.


    The next day was sunny and coincidentally, when Yun Ruoleng pulled Jun Qingshang, wanting to play with him, Jun Qingshang helplessly followed beside her. It was unknown what she wanted to do again.


    But in truth, Yun Ruoleng''s so-called play was just pulling Jun Qingshang around the streets and in the end, strolling all the way to Mo Zhan''s door.


    Jun Qingshang looked at Zhen Jun, who was welcoming him out, and felt amused and helpless in his heart.


    "The reason I let you out is to show you how Mo Zhan''s business is doing." Yun Ruoleng shook his arm, "These paintings are all new to me, what do you think?"

 C178

    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, these paintings were not bad, but it was a waste to come here to see them at this time. Jun Qingshang casually nodded, he looked around and then looked at the door: "This place isn''t far from the first stage of incense, why don''t we go over there and have a seat."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. Although it was almost noon, she still did not let him go. Who asked him to bully her last night? And he was bullying her so badly. The more Yun Ruoleng thought about it, the angrier he got, so he turned his head and continued to busy himself.


    Jun Qingshang was startled, creased his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Yun Ruoleng who turned around and left with a puzzled expression. After all, it was the first time he met Yun Ruoleng who was angry with him, and very angry at that.


    "What''s the matter with you?"


    Yun Ruoleng turned around and glanced at him, and snorted lightly: "I''m fine!"


    "Are you alright?" Jun Qingshang''s expression became serious, he caught up to me in a few steps, and pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, the corners of his mouth raised upwards, "Good girl, don''t be angry, just watch over the things, after having lunch with me, you can enter the palace!"


    Yun Ruoleng was still pushing them at the beginning, but now his expression changed: "Why are you entering the palace?"


    "You forgot that the Yue Ling envoys are coming to the capital. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng had finally paid attention to herself, Jun Qingshang explained with a smile, "Although I have already arranged this matter, as the Regent, I need to show my face."


    Yun Ruoleng thought that it was indeed the case, he nodded his head and decided to end the battle quickly, as if he did not realize that he had been tricked by someone else. He quickly greeted Zhen Jun, then walked over to an incense stick not far away, urging Jun Qingshang on as he walked.


    Jun Qingshang only pursed her lips slightly, allowing Yun Ruoleng to pull her along.


    The first stage of incense was the best restaurant in the capital, so naturally there were a lot of people eating there. When Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang arrived, the place was already filled up, and Yun Ruoleng was feeling slightly helpless: "Are we really going to eat here?"


    "There are more people, but we have some seats." Jun Qingshang led Yun Ruoleng inside.


    When the waiter saw the two enter, his eyes instantly lit up as he welcomed them, "Your Highness, please enter."


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but size up the waiter in front of him, then raise his head to look at Jun Qingshang who didn''t even raise his eyelids a little, and was a little puzzled in his heart. How could Jun Qingshang leave his name behind in this kind of place?


    Wasn''t he afraid that the enemy wouldn''t be able to find him?


    Yun Ruoleng''s fingers unconsciously tightened and he lowered his head to look at her. When he saw her deep frown, he couldn''t help but tighten his grip as well.


    When the two of them went up to the second floor, they coincidentally met Yun Yi who was walking out of room number 4. Yun Yi was startled when he saw the two of them, but his expression changed and he clasped his hands at them: "My prince."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up. "Big Brother Yi, are you accompanying Mrs. Luo?"


    "Yes." At first, Yun Yi looked at Yun Ruoleng with a little curiosity. He kept having the feeling that after these few years of not seeing her, this little sister of his had become even smarter and prettier. However, no matter how much one changed, one''s personality wouldn''t change too much. Therefore, Yun Yi''s gaze at Yun Ruoleng became more and more probing.


    It wasn''t that she didn''t feel it, it was because she had felt it that she was so calm. After all, she and Yun Ruoleng''s soul had changed, and the external world hadn''t. Even if Yun Yi had sensed it, he couldn''t find the reason.


    Moreover, it had been a long time since Yun Yi saw Yun Ruoleng.


    Jun Qingshang moved her body forward a little, just in time to block Yun Ruoleng''s face: "Since that''s the case, we will not disturb you any longer."


    After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, he did not wait for Yun Yi''s reply and pulled Yun Ruoleng to the room number 1.


    When Yun Ruoleng entered Sky No. 1 Room, he could not help but turn his head to take a look, and upon seeing that Yun Yi had directly left, he did not stay any longer, allowing him to heave a sigh of relief.


    Jun Qingshang watched all of his actions and waved towards the waiter: "Give me a few dishes as you wish, this king is in a hurry."


    Yun Ruoleng sat obediently beside Jun Qingshang, and upon hearing these words, he subconsciously raised his head to look at the waiter''s smiling appearance, and asked Jun Qingshang puzzledly: "Why do you say this, why is he so happy?"


    "A pint of incense belongs to This King." Jun Qingshang chuckled.


    Yun Ruoleng understood that if he could get the boss''s recognition, the position of the waiter would rise a lot, so how could he not be happy?


    Yun Ruoleng who had always liked eating delicacies would try out the special dishes here every time he came out. But because the rules said that there were only fifty sets of special dishes per day, first come first serve. As a concubine, naturally she could not leave the house anytime and anywhere, so she almost never snatched any of them.


    How could Jun Qingshang not know what she was planning? With a helpless sigh in his heart, he gave her the jade pendant on his body. "In the future, when you have time, bring the servant girl out to eat! Don''t look like This King has treated you unfairly. "


    Yun Ruoleng stared at the order badge on the table, her phoenix eyes narrowed. "Can Your Highness'' order badge be used as you wish?"


    "Apart from the previous emperor''s decree, everything else is fine." Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows slightly. This jade pendant could be used in a lot of ways, especially in the bank.


    Yun Ruoleng unceremoniously accepted the items, and then patted his hands, the waiter''s working speed was considered fast, in a short while the sumptuous lunch was brought to Sky No. 1 room.


    This was the third time Yun Ruoleng ate food here. Compared to last time, today''s food, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes shone brightly.


    Yun Ruoleng was not a greedy person, but rather, the first grade incense''s taste was indeed much better than other places. It was inevitable for Yun Ruoleng to be excited about this.


    As Jun Qingshang watched her eat happily, the smile on his face became even more obvious.


    Two people, one chopstick and one chopstick were preparing food for the other. Little did they know that the downstairs of the First Pint Aroma Restaurant had already been thrown into chaos. A group of people rushed into the First Pint Aroma Restaurant and chased them out.


    What kind of place was a pint of incense?


    It was a restaurant set up by the Regent himself, and no one in the capital dared to do anything to a pint of incense. However, there were still a few people who didn''t know what was good for them.


    Those who were able to eat with a single pint of incense were not simple people, so the people downstairs immediately became anxious. They no longer cared about the rules of a pint of incense and directly started fighting with the people who came.


    "Aiya! Quickly stop! " The shopkeeper hid under the counter, sticking his head out from time to time to persuade them.


    The waiter didn''t dare to move forward and could only hide far away.


    "Call me!" Fight to the death! " A well-dressed man walked into the room and leaned evilly against the counter. He tapped the counter with his fingers and said, "Innkeeper, if you count the losses later, it''ll all be mine."


    The shopkeeper''s eyes twitched as he lifted his head from the cabinet. "Young master, this is not a matter of money ¡­"

 C179

    "Are you afraid that I''ll go back on my word?" The man''s expression instantly turned ugly as he slapped the table, "Quickly clear this young master of the scene!" I want to eat here! "


    The doors to the second floor that had not been opened all of a sudden were all opened. Feudal officials who had been sitting inside came out. Their faces were all ashen, and Dong Qingyu, the president of the Board of Punishments, was the biggest one in the room.


    The usually upright Minister Dong Tianleng''s face was livid as he stared at the teenager downstairs: "Young master is too arrogant!"


    Arrogant? The man scoffed, "I have the ability to be arrogant, do you have it?"


    "You ¡­"


    "Who dares!" Just as Dong Qingyu opened her mouth to speak, she was interrupted by a cold voice. The originally crowded corridor quickly opened up a path.


    An Ying and An Yue, one in front and one behind, walked to the side of the hall. The two of them were standing with swords crossed.


    Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng did not know what was happening outside, but when the officials saw the markings on An Ying and his body, in addition to the fact that An Ying was Jun Qingshang''s bodyguard, how many of them did not recognize him?


    Thus, everyone believed that Jun Qingshang had specially sent An Ying here. An Ying did not explain either, his gaze sweeping across the chaotic scene below, and frowned: "This is the capital, who dares to claim the throne at the feet of the Emperor?"


    "Ha!" The charming man sneered, "I was wondering who it was. So it was the Regent''s lackey! Who gave you the guts to speak to me like that? "


    "Based on the Young Noble''s disrespectful words, I dare to put you on the spot!" An Ying''s face slightly changed, luckily he had gotten used to it already, if not he would have started a fight with this person.


    An Yue swept a glance at the man, and then walked toward the door. Although no one recognized An Yue, they saw that he was dressed in the An Ying Guard''s attire, and did not dare offend him, so they quickly opened up a path for him.


    An Yue knocked on the door, Yun Ruoleng''s voice came out from inside, only then did An Yue enter, only to see Yun Ruoleng sitting in Jun Qingshang''s embrace, enjoying his lunch, An Yue quickly lowered his head and cupped his hands to them: "Your Highness, there is a group of people causing trouble outside, it does not look like they are from Heaven''s Initiation."


    Jun Qingshang just finished peeling a piece of the prawn and put it near Yun Ruoleng''s lips. After Yun Ruoleng opened her mouth slightly to take a bite of the prawn, Jun Qingshang then picked up her handkerchief and carefully wiped off the grease on her hands.


    An Ying was dumbstruck. One had to know that his master had never peeled such a complicated thing like prawns.


    In his eyes, this thing was a waste of time, and his hands were dirty.


    Yun Ruoleng did not know about this, but after eating the prawn, he licked his lips in satisfaction. His sparkling phoenix eyes stared straight at An Yue, "Who is so bold?"


    "This subordinate does not know." An Yue lowered his head to look at Yun Ruoleng''s playful side, and a strange feeling arose from the bottom of his heart. An Yue subconsciously did not open his eyes, as he stifled this feeling deep within his heart.


    "Then go investigate!" Yun Ruoleng could not hold back her laughter. If they did not know, they would investigate, and if they came to cause trouble, they would arrest them. She did not believe that there would be anyone who dared to go against the Regent King!


    "Don''t be angry." The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly, and he placed Yun Ruoleng on a chair, "He just wants this duke to leave. Since This King is here, let''s see who has the guts to do so. "


    Hearing that, Yun Ruoleng did not agree. She was not an idiot, how could she not see that the other party was here to cause trouble?


    Adding on the fact that the other party was able to state his name directly, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell what was going on.


    Jun Qingshang naturally saw through Yun Ruoleng''s worry, but there were some matters that could not be ended just by worry. Jun Qingshang extended his hand and pinched her round cheeks: "Wait for me inside."


    "Your Highness ¡­" Yun Ruoleng reached out to pull his sleeve, and looked at him pitifully. "Be careful."


    Jun Qingshang chuckled and nodded at her. He turned around and the Regent, who was as gentle as water, became cold. An Yue looked at him and quickly disappeared from the room.


    Yun Ruoleng retracted his gaze, and his expression started to slowly turn serious. An Yue who had disappeared just now once again appeared in the room. Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly: "Aren''t you going to protect His Highness?"


    "His Highness ordered us to stay here and protect you." An Yue stood at the side with a longsword in hand, and his eagle-like eyes swept across every corner of the room with cold arrogance.


    "I''m running around randomly?" Yun Ruoleng was startled, her phoenix eyes squinted dangerously, "Tell me clearly, who is running around!"


    An Yue raised his eyebrows, although he could not see the expression on the other party''s face, but Yun Ruoleng could still see the disdain in the other party''s eyes.


    Fortunately, Yun Ruoleng was too lazy to bother with him, she snorted lightly: "This wangfei won''t bother with you!"


    An Yue did not say anything. Outside the door, it was previously noisy, but after walked out from the room, it was unusually quiet. Jun Qingshang''s cold and handsome face carried an extra trace of ridicule. The beautiful eyes slightly raised his head to look at the charming man downstairs: "As the crown prince of the Yue Ling, he can only do that! Huang Teng, didn''t your royal father tell you the rules of an emissary? "


    Huang Teng, the Crown Prince of Yue Ling, it was said that he was extremely overbearing and rude, and his methods were extremely cruel. Not even a single person in the entire Yue Ling gave him a good evaluation, and there were even many people who refused to support him as the emperor.


    Once Jun Qingshang opened his mouth, the quiet scene instantly became lively. Dong Qingyu stood behind Jun Qingshang and did not know what to say to him, but Jun Qingshang nodded his head slightly: "You go first, I''ll take care of this here."


    "Your Royal Highness, this matter is related to King Feng, please be careful!" Dong Qingyu cupped her hands and left after saying that softly.


    After Huang Teng''s identity was exposed, he did not try to conceal it and sneered. He reached out to the shopkeeper who was hiding behind the counter and picked him up: "When I came here, you did not even go out to welcome me! I can only come here to find you! I wonder if you like this greeting gift? "


    Jun Qingshang frowned, seeing that the shopkeeper was holding his hand tighter and tighter on his neck, the expression on his face became even more solemn. Heavenly Awakening Nation is strong and powerful, and is equal to your Yue Ling in this continent. What does it mean for this king to personally welcome you? "


    Huang Teng was rendered speechless by his question. Just as he was about to attack the shopkeeper, he heard An Ying, who was beside Jun Qingshang, say, "The Yue Ling Crown Prince casually killed the Heaven''s Enlightenment citizens. I wonder if Your Highness is going to declare war on them, or what?"


    "You ¡­" Huang Teng''s handsome face turned pitch black, and that sinister expression from before became conflicted. His gaze gloomily swept over the shopkeeper in his hand.


    The shopkeeper was also around forty years old, and after being frightened by him like that, he immediately fainted. Fortunately, An Ying reacted quickly and caught him.

 C180

    "I won''t tell you these things!" Huang Teng angrily glared at Jun Qingshang, "I only ask you one thing, are you looking down on people who don''t welcome my Yue Ling?"


    Jun Qingshang''s face turned serious: "I have already sent Wind King to welcome you into the capital."


    Huang Teng laughed coldly: "Are you sure you sent people over? When I entered the capital with a group of emissaries, I did not encounter a welcoming party! "I''m curious, where did the person the Regent arranged go?"


    Jun Qingshang''s face darkened, his gaze sweeping across An Ying. After receiving the hint, An Ying left in a flash.


    Yun Ruoleng was extremely bored staying in his room. After peeling a prawn for himself, he could no longer eat it anymore, and looked at An Yue with a pleading gaze: "Can I just go out and take a look?"


    An Yue hugged his sword as he leaned on the door of the room. Hearing Yun Ruoleng''s voice, he decisively shook his head: "No!"


    "An Yue!" Yun Ruoleng glared at him angrily. "This wangfei orders you, get out of my way!"


    "Since wangfei knows her identity, don''t cause trouble for mistress." An Yue slowly opened his eyes and stared coldly at Yun Ruoleng with eyes as sharp as an eagle''s.


    "Who is your master?" Yun Ruoleng snorted, "Didn''t your master hand you over to me?"


    "Princess, Prince only asked me to protect your safety, the rest of you will not care." An Yue''s words were not at all afraid of infuriating others, and even the one who spoke words that were as precious as gold was so mischievous. Yun Ruoleng really did not think that he would be fooled by others, and was instantly displeased by Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Ruoleng, who was making a ruckus just a moment ago, suddenly quieted down. An Yue was slightly startled and looked at Yun Ruoleng in disbelief.


    Was Yun Ruoleng really quiet? Of course not, it was only because she was still a little unhappy right now.


    Jun Qingshang did not know that his wife was angry, at this moment, a single pint of incense was densely packed with dark clouds, neither side was willing to give way, and after An Ying left, he still had not returned.


    An Ying returned after an hour, followed by Dong Qingyu. Jun Qingshang frowned slightly: "How is it?"


    "In reply to Your Highness, Wind King did not go today due to the cold." After saying that, Dong Qingyu turned and cupped her hands towards Huang Teng, "It''s our fault that our Prince Tian Qi did not go to welcome us. Since His Highness has not been summoned, it''s not right for him to enter the capital directly, so we can help each other out.


    "Equip?" The reason Huang Teng had been able to sit as crown prince for so many years was not because his methods were cruel, but more so because he was smart.


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, and laughed coldly: "Does the Regent also think so? "I think this Feng Wang is really sick at the moment."


    "It''s just time." Jun Qingshang replied unhurriedly, and waved his hand, "Heaven''s Initiation and Yue Ling are brotherly friends, I hope the crown prince will not take offense to it."


    Huang Teng really didn''t want to agree, but since this was Jun Qingshang''s territory and adding that Heaven''s Initiation was disrespectful, they directly entered the imperial city.


    To put it nicely, it would be rude. To put it bluntly, it would be disregarding the Heavenly Awakening. If someone else wanted to take advantage of it, then it would result in the two kingdoms falling out. Therefore, Huang Tu took a deep breath and snorted: "Since that''s the case, then I will not pursue the matter out of respect for my prince."


    Jun Qingshang nodded and made a inviting gesture towards him. An Ying instantly understood and cupped his hands towards Huang Teng: "Your Highness, please go up."


    "Humph!" Huang Teng was still giving Jun Qingshang face, as he brushed his sleeves and directly went upstairs. The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly, the coldness that flashed past his eyes was well hidden.


    The waiter had a lot of eyes, he quickly pushed open the door and angrily looked at Yun Ruoleng who was at the door. Jun Qingshang who was dressed in black robes walked in and frowned slightly. Yun Ruoleng opened his mouth to speak, but he was interrupted by a look from Jun Qingshang. He walked forward and comforted her while rubbing her head, "Have you finished eating?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, then thought of something, his gaze landed on the door: "What happened outside?"


    "The Crown Prince of Yue Ling, Huang Teng, has arrived."


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression slightly changed, "Didn''t you say we would arrive at night? "Why are you so fast?"


    Yun Ruoleng wasn''t an idiot, there was a problem with him thinking about it so quickly. Either the people at the inn reported the time wrongly, or it was due to some other reason.


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes and reached out to pull her into his embrace. "I''m fine here, why don''t you go back first?"


    Yun Ruoleng arched his chest, reached out her arms to encircle his robust waist, and decisively rejected: "No! If something happens, I will naturally stand by your side. "


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang seemed to understand Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts, and patted her shoulder consolingly.


    At this time, An Ying brought in a man in an ink-blue robe. His facial features were evil, and his entire body was filled with Evil Qi.


    Jun Qingshang introduced him to Yun Ruoleng: "This is the crown prince of Yue Ling, and this is my consort."


    Huang Teng''s hawk eyes were fixed on Yun Ruoleng''s delicate little face, his body releasing the Evil Qi, Yun Ruoleng subconsciously took half a step back.


    This is the crown prince of Yue Ling? The evil aura around her body caused her to shiver uncontrollably, "The name ''Yue Ling'' Crown Prince is indeed as he is known for."


    "You flatter me!" Huang Teng had never seen such an absolute beauty before, her eyes were almost glued to Yun Ruoleng''s body.


    Jun Qingshang''s handsome face darkened as he pulled Yun Ruoleng behind him and stared coldly at Huang Teng.


    Jun Qingshang was the one who protected his wife, and the entire capital knew about it. Huang Teng recklessly provoked him, but unexpectedly, Jun Qingshang did not attack him. Yun Ruoleng stuck his head out from behind him, laughed mischievously, "What I mean is that His Highness the crown prince is just like those people who just spoke, cruel and immoral."


    "You!" If the Phoenix Diagram could be said to be breathtaking when it looked at Yun Ruoleng, then at this moment, Huang Teng wished he could tear Yun Ruoleng apart.


    Jun Qingshang''s figure perfectly covered Yun Ruoleng. A pair of beautiful eyes slightly raised: "Ruo Er is messing around, and the crown prince is also messing around?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s mood was especially good. The feeling of having Jun Qingshang to protect him was really good.


    Huang Teng snorted coldly and sat on his seat, looking at the messy table. He subconsciously looked behind Jun Qingshang.


    "If a woman is too doting, she will overturn the heavens. The Regent has to be careful."


    "This King does not mind her overturning the heavens." Jun Qingshang stopped Yun Ruoleng with one hand and pulled up a chair for her with the other, indicating her to sit.


    Yun Ruoleng was more or less obedient, and obediently sat on the seat. Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows at Huang Teng in disdain.


    The couple''s beautiful love between husband and wife caused the expression on Huang Teng''s face to change again and again. Yun Ruoleng silently sipped his tea. This kind of feeling made her think of the Phoenix Diagram which was always opposing Jun Qingshang. She had to admit that the men of the imperial family were all demon-like.


    Compared to the unruly and charming Phoenix Diagram, this Huang Teng was filled with Evil Qi, which made him look no different from a Dark Witch.


    The waiter quickly went into the room and cleaned up the table. New tea cups and dishes were served, along with a jug of blue and white wine.

 C181

    The news of the first level incense stick quickly reached the Wind King''s manor. The ''gravely ill'' Wind King was sitting in his study room listening to the secret guard''s report. At first, he was gloating, but in the end, his face turned ashen.


    "Scram!" The dark guard flew out of the study room in a fit of rage and landed heavily on the ground.


    "Prince, why do you need to be angry?" The curtain at the side of the study was lifted, and a woman in blue walked out from behind it. The woman had a beautiful figure, and although her appearance could not be described as devastatingly beautiful, it was still extremely charming.


    Jun Qingfeng watched as the woman walked over. His previous anger had instantly disappeared, "Why is Lan''er here?"


    "When chenqie heard that Your Highness hasn''t left his study for a day, she came to take a look." The woman was none other than the eldest daughter of the Lan family, Lan Yuzhu. She was the concubine of the Feng Family.


    Jun Qingfeng carried the beauty, and stared at the blue jade pearl with a displeased look: "Who''s talking nonsense outside again?"


    Lan Yuzhu slightly raised her beautiful eyes, and put her soft and weak hands on his shoulders: "Your highness doesn''t want me to know that you are going to ignore me in the future. You don''t need to bother with us servants."


    Seeing the beauty like this, Jun Qingfeng couldn''t care less and sighed: "Forget it, since you came, then come."


    "I knew that you would treat me well." Lan Yuzhu''s flattering words never let Jun Qingfeng get tired of it. His soft and weak appearance made his heart tighten as he lowered his head to kiss her alluring pink lips.


    Jun Qingfeng''s actions in the study room were all seen by others, and a black figure rushed out of the Duke''s Palace with lightning speed.


    In a pint of incense, An Ying comforted a pint of incense and was finally able to take a break. At this time, a figure suddenly came in, and An Ying was not able to react as the other party bowed to him: "Commander, the Wind King isn''t sick in the Prince''s Mansion, and he is currently in bed with the Orchid Witch."


    An Ying raised her eyebrows, Wang Fei''s guess was right, but as long as the Duke found out, King Feng would definitely commit a heinous crime. In this world, other than the person who dared to provoke the prince, no one else dared to do so. No one knew what kind of fate would befall this king.


    In the room, Yun Ruoleng sat next to Jun Qingfeng, quietly peeling the large lobsters one by one. As Huang Teng looked at the speed at which Yun Ruoleng was peeling the prawns, he could not help but frown, and muttered in his heart: "Where does a woman eat prawns like this?"


    Jun Qingshang doted on Yue Bing and wiped off the oil on the corner of her mouth. He smiled at her and continued to peel the prawns. The two of them were not affected by Huang Teng at all, and they ate happily.


    "Your Highness, today ¡­" Huang Teng said.


    Jun Qingshang raised an eyebrow, and said indifferently, "Tonight, the Cloud Hall will host a banquet, so the crown prince will give you a gift. How about this duke also give you an explanation?"


    Huang Teng looked at Jun Qingshang, and then looked at where Yun Ruoleng sat on, and nodded: "Since that''s the case, then I will head over, and I would actually like to see who this Wind King is."


    "Mistress." An Ying suddenly pushed open the door and walked in. He cupped his hands towards Jun Qingfeng and then cupped his hands towards him again, "King Feng lied and stated that he had a cold weather.


    "In broad daylight... "Mhmm ¡­" Just as Yun Ruoleng opened his mouth to speak, Jun Qingshang held his head.


    "Have the Minister of Rites make a trip," Jun Qingshang smiled, he knew better than anyone else how the Ministry of Rites paid more attention to etiquette, for this time, Jun Qingfeng was afraid that he would have to return to Jincheng.


    Yun Ruoleng spat out the meat stuck in his mouth, he glared at Jun Qingshang with an ashen face, and turned to leave. However, he was stopped by An Yue at the entrance.


    "Out of the way!" At this moment, Yun Ruoleng was so angry that he found everyone unpleasant to look at, and naturally found An Yue, who had always been helping Jun Qingshang, even more unpleasant to look at.


    An Yue hastily dodged, taking advantage of the situation and switching positions with him, he proudly walked out while clapping his hands. An Yue frowned, and just as he was about to stop her, a figure faster than him appeared in front of him.


    Yun Ruoleng lifted her hand to attack him, but she was stopped by a finger with clear joints. "Ruo Er, stop messing around."


    "Humph!" The person who had almost choked her to death was the person in front of her, how could she ease her anger so easily?


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at the passersby and then looked at the people sitting inside who were looking at them strangely. She frowned: "We''ll talk about it when we get back!"


    Jun Qingshang looked at An Yue and An Yue immediately walked outside. Jun Qingshang wrapped his arm around Yun Ruoleng''s chest and lovingly pointed at her nose: "Don''t be angry, I don''t want to hear those filthy words from your mouth."


    Yun Ruoleng was slightly stunned and when he lifted his head to look at Jun Qingshang''s eyes, his expression couldn''t help but change.


    Jun Qingshang sighed, the little girl was still as cute as a wild cat.


    An Yue drove the carriage forward slowly, he carried Yun Ruoleng and placed him on the carriage, then followed along to the carriage, no one noticed that before they left, not a single one of them left.


    With Jun Qingshang''s order, the Minister of Rites brought the Minister of Rites and his men to the Feng King''s Mansion. With the order badge given by the little emperor, they directly entered the Feng King''s courtyard without permission.


    "Lord Yang, being so unscrupulous, aren''t you looking down on the prince too much?" The steward of the Wind King''s Mansion was not someone easy to deal with. He blocked people from entering the yard and ordered people to report to him.


    The people of the Ministry of Rites paid the most attention to etiquette and etiquette, and naturally also to the orders of the Emperor. The Emperor wanted him to see the private affairs of the Prince, and naturally to be ordered by him.


    "You ¡­"


    "This jade pendant was personally bestowed by the Emperor. You don''t need to doubt its authenticity." The Minister of Rites put the jade pendant into his pocket and waved to the people behind him.


    It was too late for the butler to stop him. With the help of the jade pendant from earlier and the fact that many knew what the jade pendant meant, the Minister of Rites brought a group of people to the study room.


    The Minister of Rites pushed open the door, and a sweet smell wafted from inside. Anyone who had experienced such a smell would know where it came from, not to mention that the messy study room confirmed their thoughts.


    "Who?" Jun Qingfeng quickly pushed away the person on top of him and donned his robes, staring at the person at the door with a dark expression.


    Her face was still flushed, making her look even more charming.


    Seeing this, the group of men at the door had their backs to the Wind King, and the Minister of Rites was no exception. With their backs to the Wind King, they coldly said, "Your Highness, please follow this humble subject into the palace!"


    King Feng really wanted to refuse, how could the Minister of Rites let him refuse? After a pause, he continued, "This official was ordered to come and see His Highness, but His Highness didn''t expect him to have such an experience."


    "You are threatening This King?" Jun Qingfeng''s face turned green, and his gaze landed on the Minister of Rites and his body became even more unsightly.

 C182

    The Minister of Rites waved his hand and said, "Why are you afraid of threats if you don''t want to do something shameful? Your highness, please change your clothes. This subject will wait at the entrance of the courtyard. "


    King Feng was furious, but he still couldn''t get a single word from the Minister of Rites.


    The Minister of Rites was famous for his righteousness, which was also why Jun Qingshang invited him to come and invite people over. It was because of his righteousness that made him more persuasive.


    After Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang returned to the Regent¡¯s Mansion, the two of them did not speak. Yun Ruoleng was not angry because of what happened just now, it was just that the two of them suddenly did not know what to say. An Ying was in charge of arranging the envoy''s affairs, so he was not back yet. An Yue was accompanying them, and the three of them were silent.


    Inside the Water Spirit Pavilion, Peach Blossom and Cui Ying saw that they had returned, and became overjoyed. Just as they were about to say something, they saw Yun Ruoleng walk into the Water Spirit Pavilion with a sullen expression.


    "Miss, what happened?" Peach Blossom always talked a lot, but seeing that Yun Ruoleng was completely different from before she came back, she started to worry.


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at Peach Blossom, and shook her head slightly: "It''s nothing, I''m just a little tired."


    Tao Hong and Cui Ying looked at each other for a moment, then quickly supported Yun Ruoleng into the room.


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at the two of them. Was she that weak? Do we still need to walk these few steps?


    Peach Blossom and Cui Ying felt uncomfortable all over because of Yun Ruoleng''s stare, and the hand that was holding her hand unconsciously loosened. Yun Ruoleng shook his head helplessly and walked into the room.


    Inside the study, Jun Qingshang was standing in front of the window and looking at the scenery in the direction of the Water Spirit Pavilion, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. An Yue was standing behind him and organizing the things on the desk, when his hand suddenly stopped moving.


    An Yue''s heart tightened, he shook his head and dismissed the thought that he shouldn''t have, continuing to organize his things.


    Jun Qingshang stood there for a long time before he turned to look at the desk that had been tidied up, and nodded at An Yue: "How is the investigation going?"


    "Princess Qiao Ren Zhong seems to be trying to seduce Yun Yueyu." When An Yue thought about how a man seduced a woman, all of his heart felt uncomfortable.


    Jun Qingshang looked at An Yue with interest: "How do I seduce you?"


    "This ¡­" An Yue was immediately speechless, when did Master become so dishonest?


    Jun Qingshang only laughed softly, "Since she has thought of a way, then I presume he has his reasons as well."


    An Yue nodded his head, he actually wanted to say what logic was there! This was obviously going on a pirate ship, there was nothing Qiao Ren Zhong could do!


    "A lover knows nothing about Xi Shi", he probably meant someone like Jun Qingshang! Not to mention, even if Yun Ruoleng looked like Xi Shi, many people could not accept this kind of way of insulting men. However, Jun Qingshang was stunned for a moment and accepted it, thinking that she had done a good job.


    The afternoon passed by extremely quickly. Yun Ruoleng had been awoken by Peach Blossom, and her eyes were a little blurry after waking up: "What time is it?"


    Peach Blossom held onto a dark purple chest dress as she helped Yun Ruoleng clean up the bed: "In an hour, the palace banquet will begin in another two hours. Your highness left specially to let this servant serve the young miss to get up."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, he was afraid that entering the palace was not as simple as it seemed, and was afraid that someone would use this chance to cause trouble. Yun Ruoleng quickly put on her clothes and let Peach Blossom dress herself up.


    "Has the prince entered the palace?" Yun Ruoleng said softly as he adjusted the wrinkles that did not exist.


    Peach Blossom''s hand that was cleaning the dressing table paused, she looked at Yun Ruoleng and shook her head: "The Prince asked this servant to help you wake up. He told you to go to the main entrance, he''ll wait there for you."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, and casually waved her hand at Peach Blossom: "I understand, today it''s still An Xiang who will follow me into the palace. All you need to do is stay in the Duke Palaces."


    "Why didn''t you bring me along?" Peach Blossom unhappily pouted. When she thought about how Yun Ruoleng would always bring An Xiang there, her entire heart felt uncomfortable.


    Yun Ruoleng comforted her by patting her on the shoulder, "The palace is a place that eats people and doesn''t spit their bones. Although the little emperor is still young and the empress dowager is in charge of the imperial palace, she still won''t change this saying. I did it for your own good. "


    Although Peach Blossom was unhappy, she had to agree with Yun Ruoleng''s words, and could only hum a few words under her breath.


    Yun Ruoleng helplessly shook his head, he then turned and quickly instructed An Xiang: Now that everything is ready, let''s go!


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang blinked her bright eyes at Peach Blossom, and followed Yun Ruoleng out with a smile.


    Tao Hong was so angry that she vomited blood, but in the end, it was Cui Ying who comforted her and made her feel better.


    When Yun Ruoleng walked to the entrance of the mansion, he saw the luxurious carriage stopped at the entrance, and beside it was a snow-white "Traceless Snowsteps".


    Yun Ruoleng waved his hands, he did not say anything and directly stepped on the horse carriage to get there. Jun Qingshang had already been sitting in the carriage since long ago, and when he saw the person who entered, his mouth raised: "Did you sleep well during the afternoon nap?"


    "Very good." Yun Ruoleng still looked a little angry on the surface, but his heart had long ago become one.


    Jun Qingshang raised his sword-like eyebrows slightly, and used his bony fingers to grasp her slender wrist. Putting some force into his arm, when he wasn''t prepared for it, Yun Ruoleng immediately pulled him into Jun Qingshang''s embrace, and smashed his head against her chest.


    "Hiss!"


    "Ugh!"


    Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng gasped at the same time. Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to speak, Jun Qingshang had already held her head and observed for himself, "Are you injured?"


    "No ¡­" Yun Ruoleng just said one word and he felt that something was wrong. Wasn''t she angry? Why did he take her astray?


    Just as Yun Ruoleng wanted to correct him, he saw Jun Qingshang smiling charmingly. Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng''s reaction, Jun Qingshang had already laughed heartily: "Let''s go!"


    Because of the inertia, Yun Ruoleng''s head once again smashed into Jun Qingshang''s chest. Jun Qingshang gently rubbed her little head, and said in an amiable tone, "If Ruo Er doesn''t vent his anger, then just vent it out on this duke, don''t hold it in in your heart!"


    Yun Ruoleng lightly punched Jun Qingshang and snorted. At a place where Jun Qingshang could not see, her pink lips moved slightly.


    "With a sovereign like this, what do I need a woman for?"


    Jun Qingshang satisfyingly hugged Yun Ruoleng as the distance between the Regent¡¯s Mansion and the Imperial Palace was not too far. In the time it took for an incense stick to burn, they had already arrived at the palace gates.

 C183

    nanny, who was guarding the palace door and inspecting the invitation letter, saw the person who had alighted from the horse carriage and quickly put down what he was doing and welcomed him: "This servant greets wangfei."


    "nanny greets you." Yun Ruoleng bowed slightly, he only respected the elder, and did not look like he was trying to curry favor with him.


    The nanny was very happy to see her and quickly gave way to her. "Esteemed wangfei, please come in. The empress dowager is still waiting for esteemed wangfei to go speak!"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded, and stepped into the palace.


    When Yun Ruoleng had completely disappeared from the palace gate, the crowd burst into an uproar: "Who was that just now?"


    "I heard the nanny call her ''Royal Consort''. It should be the Regent''s Royal Consort!"


    "Beautiful."


    "Isn''t it? If it wasn''t for that leather bag, the Regent of the Heroic Godly Martial Spirit would never have taken a fancy to her. It''s just a vase with a leather bag. "


    "¡­"


    The nanny guarding the palace gate was not stupid. His gaze fell on the carriage that had not left, and the corners of his mouth formed a smile, but he did not stop this group of people from talking behind his back. Jun Qingshang could hear what the group of women said clearly. His originally cold face was covered with a layer of frost, "An Ying, remember the name of the person who was biting the tongue!"


    An Ying''s body trembled, and quickly left with a sound of agreement. Just now, he had clearly felt the cold air. It seemed that this group of people were going to suffer. An Ying did not pity this group of people, but rather, he was afraid of implicating this innocent person.


    Yun Ruoleng brought An Xiang all the way to the Peace Faction, not knowing what was happening at the entrance of the palace. It had been a long time since she''d gone to the palace to pay her respects to the empress dowager. Naturally, she didn''t dare slight her entrance this time.


    Although this mother-in-law was really nice to him, the rules still couldn''t be broken.


    Yun Ruoleng walked out of the Tzu Ning Palace, and looked at Third Princess Zhang Qinyue and her personal maid from afar talking. When she saw Yun Ruoleng walking over, she shot him a glance. The servant quickly left with her head lowered.


    "Yo, isn''t this Seventh Sister-in-law?" Zhang Qinyue was originally a gentle and generous person, but because of her father, she became sarcastic and unsightly to look at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrows, she initially did not plan to care about it, but upon thinking about the way the man had begged her, and his current appearance, she could not hold it in: "The third sister is standing at the door and is not coming in, discussing matters with the servant, could it be a conspiracy?"


    "You ¡­" Zhang Qinyue''s expression changed. She swallowed the words that were on her lips and snorted coldly. Then, she turned around and walked towards the main hall.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, she was angry from embarrassment, but still turned to leave, it looked strange to her, An Xiang blinked her watery eyes, looking at the lady who was swaying back and forth in the hall: "Young miss, you couldn''t have said the right thing, right?"


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "That''s not necessarily the case, let someone keep an eye on him."


    "Yes sir!" After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he also walked into the great hall, but An Xiang was walking in another direction.


    When Yun Ruoleng walked into the palace, he saw that many clan women and noblewomen had already come. The originally lively scene was interrupted by Yun Ruoleng''s arrival. The empress dowager watched as Yun Ruoleng entered the palace on his own, her brows slightly knitted. "Lass, why are you here alone?"


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "An Xiang is at the door! The Queen Mother need not worry. "


    "The maids around you have all been spoiled by you!" The empress dowager snickered. "You don''t have to worry about it either."


    "The maidservants are all very cute. If I manage all of them too strictly, they would lose their true nature. Wouldn''t the entire courtyard be deathly silent?" After Yun Ruoleng said this, he suddenly looked towards Zhang Qinyue, "The maids by the side of the Third Emperor''s sister-in-law are like this, they look down and do not have any spirit."


    "How did my sister get involved with me again?" Zhang Qinyue frowned in displeasure. This woman had a sharp tongue, she wasn''t easy to deal with. As soon as she walked in, she immediately laid a trap for herself.


    "I''m telling the truth." Yun Ruoleng sighed: "Just now when I was at the door, I saw the little girl lowering her head and looking straight into her eyes, there was a hint of worry between her brows, putting such a person by her side would only cause my imperial sister-in-law to lose her popularity, luckily my imperial sister-in-law is a meticulous person, and push her away."


    "Haha ¡­" Zhang Qin Yue smiled awkwardly at Yun Ruoleng. Although the reason why she said that was so that everyone wouldn''t be unhappy, but someone with a good heart would definitely understand.


    As expected, the empress dowager''s eyebrows unconsciously furrowed as she waved at Yun Ruoleng. "It''s been a few days since we''ve last met, but the cold girl has grown even more exquisite."


    "The prince''s residence has good feng shui, the prince and the empress dowager love Leng Er, so naturally, they grew more exquisite." The empress dowager could laugh at the fact that Yun Ruoleng was trying to curry favor with the old man.


    The empress dowager was happy, but those seated below had to smile even if they were unhappy. In a short while, the atmosphere in the hall reached its peak. Yun Ruoleng took out a painting of the Buddha from his sleeve, and passed it onto the empress dowager as if he was offering a treasure: "Leng Er does not have anything for you this time, this is the portrait Leng Er gave me a few days ago. I wonder if the empress dowager would like it?"


    There was a saying, like you, then like all of it. The empress dowager really liked Yun Ruoleng, so naturally, she couldn''t let go of this painting.


    As he sat and looked at the paintings Yun Ruoleng had taken out, he remembered that Yun Ruoleng was publicly recognized as a master painter by the heaven, someone women like him would never be able to get jealous of. The women who said at the door that she was a vase looked at the painting and did not dare to breathe.


    By his side, after Jun Qingshang obtained a list of names, he saw An Xiang rushing in. Before he even had the chance to ask, An Xiang had already opened his mouth: "Your Highness, something bad happened."


    Jun Qingshang placed the name list back into his sleeves, his expression slightly cold: "What happened?"


    "Feng Wangfei sent someone to ¡­" An Xiang paused for a moment, and then said softly, "Feng Wangfei arranged for people to put some medicine in the tea. In order not to alert the enemy, this subordinate has no choice but to come and report, I''m afraid it''s already too late."


    Jun Qingshang glared at An Xiang, which almost made An Xiang''s legs go weak. Luckily, An Ying helped her up quickly: "Follow quickly!"


    An Xiang choked on his saliva, and quickly adjusted his attitude, then quickly chased after them. Jun Qingshang was extremely fast, An Ying and An Xiang could not catch up to him at all.


    Yun Ruoleng still didn''t know that danger was slowly approaching them. At this moment, the entire Ci Ning Palace was filled with laughter, although some people were pretending to laugh, they had no choice but to laugh out loud in order to cooperate with the empress dowager.


    "Little girl, you have such a clever heart. It''s really his fortune to be married to you." The empress dowager''s impression of Yun Ruoleng increased, and she started to dislike the Third Princess even more.


    "Imperial Mother is too kind." Yun Ruoleng unenthusiastically swept a glance at the Third Princess who was seated below him. "Compared to the Third Wife, Leng Er still has a lot of things to learn!"


    "Seventh Sister-in-Law is too modest." Zhang Qinyue hated Yun Ruoleng to the core, every time she spoke of him, he would drag this matter onto her. If he did not hit the smiling person, Yun Ruoleng would not say anything else.


    Yun Ruoleng was really against Zhang Qinyue, she knew who the empress dowager disliked the most, the more the empress dowager disliked Zhang Qinyue, the more they liked her, and the more they loved Yun Ruoleng for his magnanimity.


    All of a sudden, a woman who was sitting down fainted in her seat ¡­

 C184

    If it weren''t for the maid quickly catching the concubine, she would have fallen to the ground.


    "What''s wrong?" The empress dowager''s expression stiffened as she looked worriedly at the fainting imperial concubine. Before she could ask for the result, another imperial concubine fell to the ground.


    One after another, people fell to the ground. Even the empress dowager fainted, causing Yun Ruoleng''s expression to darken as he stared coldly at the calm Zhang Qinyue.


    "Third sister-in-law is such a good person." As soon as Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he felt dizzy and frowned slightly. Looking at Zhang Qin Yue''s brilliant smile, he was surprised, "What do you want to do to everyone?"


    "You''re already like this and you still care about others, why don''t you care about yourself?" Zhang Qin Yue sneered, seeing Yun Ruoleng''s swaying appearance, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, the hatred in her eyes that could not be hidden made Yun Ruoleng''s heart jump.


    This battle was probably planned out for her, but ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng could not hold on any longer. Closing his eyes, he fell to the ground with a "thud".


    Zhang Qinyue then stood up from her seat and looked around the unconscious crowd before finally letting out a heartless laugh. Zhang Qin Yue was naturally in a good mood, looking at Yun Ruoleng who was lying on the ground, her eyes were filled with pride and hatred: "Tie him up!"


    With that, a group of guards rushed into the hall. If one didn''t look carefully, they would think it was the imperial guards, but they weren''t, because this group of people had a badge with the word "Wind" written on it.


    Zhang Qinyue saw that the group of people was busy, her mood was unspeakably good, and got the empress dowager and Yun Ruoleng to be arrested.


    Jun Qingshang''s speed was not slow. Just as Zhang Qinyue was giving the order, Jun Qingshang had already arrived at the Tzu Ning Palace. He was filled with anger that could not be hidden: "Third royal sister-in-law, what are you doing?"


    Zhang Qinyue was so scared that her whole body shivered. The originally happy Zhang Qinyue instantly lost all of her confidence, but when she saw Jun Qingshang rushing to the Tzu Ning Palace alone, her confidence returned. "If the Regent is not here, this wangfei would have to look for you! Wake up the empress dowager and that woman. "


    The guard opened a small porcelain bottle and handed it over to the empress dowager and Yun Ruoleng. The two who were originally unconscious slowly woke up, and the empress dowager woke up earlier than Yun Ruoleng.


    "You ¡­ What are you all doing? "


    "Mother, don''t worry. Your daughter-in-law won''t hurt you. She will only let you understand one thing."


    The moment Yun Ruoleng woke up, he heard these words, then looked at the people under the stairs who were surrounded by guards and the blade that was resting on his neck, his expression immediately changed.


    "Third imperial concubine is abducting the empress dowager!" According to the law of heaven, you should be cut down! "


    "Stop talking!" Zhang Qin Yue did not take Yun Ruoleng''s words seriously. On the contrary, she glanced at the blade on Yun Ruoleng''s neck: "You''re already like this and you''re telling me all this, aren''t you afraid that I''ll make them understand you with a single slash?"


    "Do you dare?" Yun Ruoleng looked at her with a smile that was not a smile. Her life was indeed in her hands, but Zhang Qinyue did not dare to do anything to her.


    "This wangfei doesn''t dare?" Zhang Qin Yue sneered and slapped Yun Ruoleng''s face.


    Yun Ruoleng received the slap, his face ashen.


    The person with the ugliest complexion was not Yun Ruoleng, but Jun Qingshang. However, he did not dare act without thinking, as his Ruo Er and his mother were still in her hands.


    "How about the Regent and this Consort negotiate over a matter?" Zhang Qin Yue did not even put Jun Qingshang in her eyes at all, on the contrary, she thought that she had already prepared everything for capturing the two hostages.


    Jun Qingshang laughed coldly: "Zhang Qinyue, are you crazy? You still dare to negotiate with This King at this time? "


    "The Regent didn''t figure it out, did he?" Zhang Qinyue was stunned for a moment, then mocked, "Your highness is at a disadvantage now."


    "Is that so?" Jun Qingshang looked at the guards around him in a neither warm nor cold manner, while the guards raised their blades and looked at Jun Qingshang in alert.


    The look in Jun Qingshang''s eyes was enough to strike fear into the hearts of the guards. Zhang Qinyue''s complacent expression instantly changed, and she subconsciously took a step back.


    Yun Ruoleng could not help but sneer in his heart.


    "Does the Regent not care about the Empress Dowager and this woman?" Zhang Qinyue was afraid of fighting. After all, she knew how powerful a regent was.


    When they weren''t paying attention, Yun Ruoleng smiled slyly to Jun Qingshang, and turned around to blink at the guards beside him.


    The guard was also a man, so he naturally couldn''t resist the temptation of Yun Ruoleng, the exceptional beauty, as she blinked at him, his heart rippled. Yun Ruoleng took advantage of the moment when he was distracted to quickly break free from his hold, his small hands nimbly grabbed onto the enemy''s blade.


    Yun Ruoleng''s movements were too fast, to the point that they couldn''t react to it. Zhang Qinyue stared at the cold blade on her neck in disbelief.


    "What else do you have to say, sister-in-law?" Yun Ruoleng waved the blade in his hand, "If you want to let her live, you better throw the blade in your hand away."


    The guards looked at each other and looked at Zhang Qinyue, who was trembling with fear. They couldn''t make up their minds.


    Zhang Qinyue panicked. She quickly waved her hand and wailed, "Hurry and put down your saber!"


    The guards looked at each other, and could only obediently put down the sabre in their hands. At this time, a group of imperial guards rushed in. An Ying and An Xiang were walking at the very front, and the moment they entered, they saw that their wangfei was aggressively holding onto Zhang Qinyue. The two of them looked at each other, and instantly heaved a sigh of relief.


    "Capture all of them." Jun Qingshang supported the empress dowager and instructed her, "An Xiang, help the empress dowager to the sleeping quarters to rest."


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang replied and walked up the steps to support the empress dowager to walk outside.


    Yun Ruoleng quickly slashed Zhang Qinyue, causing her to faint. He then turned and threw her into Jun Qingshang''s embrace, like a butterfly flying in the air, extremely beautiful.


    Jun Qingshang held onto her trembling body and immediately let out a breath of relief. He extended his hand and carefully held onto her red little face: "Does it still hurt?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head and shook it again: "It''s healing very quickly, it doesn''t hurt anymore."


    Jun Qingshang frowned, an unconcealable killing intent shot out from the beautiful eyes, Yun Ruoleng hugged Jun Qingshang tightly: "Don''t kill her first, we still have some use for you!"


    "This King can still deal with it without her." The anger in Jun Qingshang''s heart had no place to vent. Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s slightly red face, he felt an ache in his heart.


    The current Jun Qingshang really wanted to tear Zhang Qinyue into a thousand pieces.


    If not for Yun Ruoleng stopping her, Zhang Qinyue really might have become the skinless human bone in Jun Qingshang''s hands.

 C185

    After Yun Ruoleng comforted Jun Qingshang a bit, he then remembered that Jun Qingshang should be at this place now, and immediately pushed him away: "The Emperor still needs someone to take care of him, aren''t you going?"


    "Together." Jun Qingshang was no longer at ease by himself staying in the same place alone with Yun Ruoleng. Her sharp fingers were wrapped around Yun Ruoleng''s long and beautiful fingers, and without any rejection, she pulled her towards the exit of the great hall.


    An Ying lowered his head, he did not need to speak to know the meaning of his master''s words, and could only silently clean up the mess.


    After Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang left the Peace Faction, they walked towards the Peace Palace.


    "Your Highness, why do you think Zhang Qinyue kidnapped mother and me?" Yun Ruoleng truly did not figure out the reason, if it was said that the Wind King wanted that position, then there was no need to make a move on the concubine!


    "In truth, Zhang Qinyue is just an abandoned child." Jun Qingshang unconsciously tightened his grip on Yun Ruoleng''s hand, "The only reason she did that was because she wanted to control the clan women, and then cause the entire sect to side with Jun Qingfeng, but unfortunately, she failed."


    "It seems that you are rather regretful. Honest to the truth, did you already know?" Yun Ruoleng let out a light snort, and his heart inexplicably became a little flustered.


    Jun Qingfeng shook his head helplessly: "I''m not even a god, how would I know this? I just regret not catching the person behind the scenes. "


    "What a pity ¡­" Yun Ruoleng lowered his head, this matter was truly a little regretful, after all, no one was as detestable as the people behind the scenes. And even if they knew who the mastermind was, they wouldn''t have any evidence to arrest him.


    Entering the Mourning Cloud Palace, there were two or three ministers chatting together inside. Seeing Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng walk in, everyone was a little confused.


    Jun Qingshang directly ignored the gazes of others as he led Yun Ruoleng to sit at the seat that belonged to him, then gently peeled the grapes for her. Yun Ruoleng enjoyed eating the grapes Jun Qingshang passed to him.


    "Eat less." Yun Ruoleng''s favorite fruit was Ice Grape. Jun Qingshang was afraid that it would be bad for his spleen and stomach if he ate too much, so after peeling a few fruits, he stopped and signaled the palace maid to bring the things away.


    Yun Ruoleng stared widely with unconvinced eyes, but the man was completely indifferent. He took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the corner of his lips, then began to wipe his fingers.


    Yun Ruoleng opened his mouth and transformed into a long sigh.


    Jun Qingshang only glanced at her but did not say anything.


    The little emperor sat on the high seat and looked at the lovey couple with a bad taste in his heart. He glared at Jun Qingshang with seething rage and when he raised his head to look, the little emperor quickly retracted his gaze.


    "What are you looking at?" Yun Ruoleng followed his gaze and saw the little Emperor talking to the little De Zi beside him. Yun Ruoleng curiously looked at the little Emperor and then looked at Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang raised his hand to rub her fluffy little head, and shook his head, "It''s nothing, I''m just curious as to what the Emperor is discussing with that brat."


    Discuss what? Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes. What can a child discuss? It was just some strange stuff. She was not curious about the little emperor, but was curious about Jun Qingshang.


    He actually had the leisure to see the little emperor?


    Jun Qingshang did not know that Yun Ruoleng was curious, he only smiled at him, and suddenly heard a commotion at the entrance. The two looked at each other and then looked at the door.


    Jun Qingfeng and Huang Teng walked in side by side, looking like they had an extremely good relationship with each other.


    Yun Ruoleng strangely muttered: "Shouldn''t Huang Teng hate Jun Qingfeng? Why is our relationship suddenly so good? "


    "As you can see, there''s something going on between them." Jun Qingshang gently rubbed her head, "Sit down later and don''t talk."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang in disbelief. Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrow at her: "There''s a good show to see."


    A good show? Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, she was really willing to see this.


    Jun Qingshang glared at her unhappily. This girl really liked liveliness, but it always had something to do with her!


    "The empress dowager has arrived!" The previously noisy Mascot Hall immediately quietened down. The empress dowager was clad in a phoenix robe, giving her a magnificent appearance as usual. A group of women followed behind her, all of them with their heads buried, not daring to even breathe.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang looked at each other before quickly standing up to pay their respects.


    "Get up." The empress dowager walked up the steps with an imposing manner, all of the officials kneeled down to pay their respects, even Huang Teng did not fall behind.


    "Everyone, please rise." The empress dowager was indeed the empress of the late emperor. As she released all the aura around her, she instantly became even more noble, waving her long sleeves and saying, "Today''s Yue Ling envoys have come to visit, specifically to host. Everyone, please speak out and share your thoughts with everyone."


    "Empress Dowager Xie!" The faithful rose from the ground, clasped his hands, and looked at her.


    When the concubine and the ladies returned to their seats, the empress dowager spoke a few words before they all took their seats. Jun Qingshang sat down and poured himself a cup of wine, then poured Yun Ruoleng a cup of fruit juice.


    Yun Ruoleng looked eagerly at the wine cup in Jun Qingshang''s hand, while Jun Qingshang stared at her in complete speechlessness: "You want to drink it?"


    Yun Ruoleng licked his tongue, and shook his head like a rattle drum. Jun Qingshang was annoyed but at the same time amused as he reached out to pinch her lower jaw. "Talking doesn''t mean what you think, it''s just that drinking alcohol hurts your body, you can''t drink it."


    Yun Ruoleng awkwardly curled the corner of his mouth, and in the end, swept a gaze filled with grievance at him, before raising his hand and gulping down the juice in his cup. The sour and sweet juice instantly gushed into his mouth, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up: This taste is not bad.


    But not as much as the juice of the twenty-first century.


    Yun Ruoleng did not doubt that Jun Qingshang would look bad after he finished drinking it.


    Jun Qingshang squinted slightly as she stood guard in front of Huang Teng who raised his glass. Yun Ruoleng''s face was still filled with innocence, but Jun Qingshang did not retract his gaze. Similarly, Huang Teng seemed to have been frozen, no one knew what happened between the two of them.


    Jun Qingshang was very clear that this was a competition of auras. He was not clear about what kind of person Huang Teng was, so it was difficult to determine victory or defeat in this competition.


    Yun Ruoleng was panicking and did not dare to wake up Jun Qingshang.


    Time passed minute by minute, but there was still no result from the contest between Jun Qingsheng and Feng Teng. At this time, the matriarchs of the royal clan and the noble clan had begun their performance. Although she was already married, there were still some people who wanted to target her, such as Lan Yu''er of the Lan family.


    "Did the cold girl hear what they said clearly?" The empress dowager''s face was filled with anticipation at the challenge.


    The little emperor was even more disdainful. Did you know how bad a person would be if they could be the champion of the Hundred Blossom Banquet?

 C186

    Yun Ruoleng shook her head innocently. She had only walked for a short while, what problems did this group of people have now? The more he thought about it, the darker Yun Ruoleng''s face became.


    "Little girl, you''re just looking at Xin''er in a daze." The empress dowager chuckled. "These people want to exchange pointers with you, but they rarely see you today. If they have any talent, just put on a show."


    Yun Ruoleng sneered in his heart. This group of people must not have been abused enough at the Hundred Blossom Banquet!


    Jun Qingshang tightened her grip on Yun Ruoleng''s small hand. Yun Ruoleng glanced at him and smiled faintly to him. There was no need to speak between the two of them, they could already understand each other''s intentions.


    When the empress dowager saw the expressions on Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang''s faces, she frowned slightly. She didn''t know what the two of them wanted to do now.


    Before the empress dowager could speak, Jun Rushi spoke up from the side. "Last time at the Hundred Blossom Banquet, Imperial Aunt took the first place. Are you sure you still want to compete with Imperial Aunt?"


    Jun Rushi''s words made many of the ladies who had participated in the Hundred Flowers Banquet feel inferior. Jun Rushi seemed to still not feel satisfied and snorted lightly: "Leng Yun''s drawing is unrivalled in the world, even men express their admiration, what are you group of women going to use to compete with my imperial aunt?"


    Being praised like that by Jun Rushi, Yun Ruoleng coughed lightly in embarrassment.


    After Jun Rushi finished speaking, the entire audience went silent, and even the empress dowager couldn''t help but look at the little emperor. As her grandmother, how could she not know what kind of person Jun Rushi was? It was only because he knew her that he was curious.


    Jun Rushi still snorted lightly: "We heard that there are countless beauties in the Yue Ling that are proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy and painting. Is Princess Wan Xue who came with the crown prince the same?"


    Only then did Yun Ruo Leng notice a woman in light blue clothes following Huang Teng. This woman had bangs that covered half her face, and her features were picturesque. She had a pair of soul-stirring phoenix eyes, a delicate nose, and cherry lips.


    Yun Ruoleng was shocked, the purpose of this crown prince coming to the Heaven''s Enlightenment was not that simple.


    Jun Rushi was still young after all, and had an unspeakable good impression of beautiful things when looking at them. However, he was not an unconscious monarch, and only understood what was going on in an instant.


    Princess Ling died in childbirth. Currently, there was still one more princess missing from the Ling palace, so the crown prince probably wanted to make use of this opportunity to deal with Prince Ling. Unfortunately, Prince Ling''s ambitions were not just limited to this.


    The little emperor, on the other hand, was quite careful. After he understood what had happened, he put on a stern face and said, "Princess, you''re so beautiful. We have never seen a beauty dance like her in Yue Ling! "


    "That''s right!"


    "Mhmm!" After the court officials heard the little emperor''s words, they all nodded their heads to support him, and so the group of people''s gazes immediately landed on Huang Wanxue.


    Huang Wanxue''s elegant brows knitted slightly, her gaze provoking as she stared at Yun Ruoleng who was sitting on his seat and sipping his tea. "This princess has come with respect to my name, and now that I have met Leng Yun himself, this princess would like to exchange pointers with him. I wonder if you are willing?"


    "Princess, your request is too excessive!" Jun Qingshang put down the wine cup with a smile that was not a smile. "This king''s consort is a married woman, it''s not good for her to show her face outside. Furthermore, this kind of occasion is meant for unmarried people like the princess, don''t involve a married woman in this."


    "You ¡­" Huang Wanxue opened her phoenix eyes slightly, her expression extremely ugly. However, the moment she saw Jun Qingshang''s handsome face, the expression on her face instantly froze, "You ¡­ you are the Regent of Heaven''s Enlightenment?"


    "That''s right!" Jun Qingshang''s expression remained the same, with a smile that was not a smile, but his eyes that was not a ripple of emotion was filled with dissatisfaction.


    Huang Wanxue sized Jun Qingshang up like he was looking at an item, until someone really couldn''t resist and turned his gaze away. The person who couldn''t bear to watch any longer was none other than the silent Xiahou Jin Rou.


    "You actually scolded me for not following the path of a woman!" Huang Wanxue''s face became even uglier. Her originally enchanting face was now completely red, and she looked even more seductive.


    held a chicken leg in one hand as she watched from the sidelines. Xiahou Jin Rou wasn''t a good person either, although she didn''t like Yun Ruoleng, compared to this seductive woman, she disliked her even more.


    There was a saying that went "do things as soon as possible". No matter how Xiahou Jin Rou did not cut off Huang Wanxue''s thoughts, she would become an imperial concubine in the future and her days after entering the door would not be good. One could tell that this princess was not an easy person to get along with.


    This kind of dog-eat-dog war looked very interesting. How much influence did Jun Qingshang have in the whole Heaven''s Enlightenment? Yun Ruoleng scratched his chin and thought for a moment, then fixed his gaze on the Empress Dowager''s dark face.


    Although Xiahou Jin Rou did not like Yun Ruoleng, he was at least a member of Heaven''s Initiation. What was this Huang Wanxue doing? Xiahou Jin Rou laughed coldly, "How about scolding you? Didn''t you look at the Regent with the intention of seducing him? "


    "You ¡­" Huang Wanxue was so angry that his face turned green, and just as he was about to argue, he was interrupted by Huang Teng.


    "Say less!"


    "Crown Prince ¡­" Huang Wanxue looked at Huang Teng in disbelief. In the past, he had never roared at him, but today, he actually yelled at him without giving him any face. What Huang Wanxue couldn''t believe was that the big brother Crown Prince who had doted on him so much had gone somewhere else.


    Yun Ruoleng held his head and looked at Jun Qingshang, this man was truly a beauty capable of bringing disaster upon a nation! This princess may have met Jun Qingshang for the rest of her life!


    Jun Qingshang''s hand that was holding onto the wine, slightly paused, his sharp eyebrows slightly raised: "Does Ruo Er have something to say when he looks at this duke?"


    "Cough!" Yun Ruoleng coughed lightly: "Didn''t Your Highness say that you were going to give me a surprise today? "The banquet has already begun, I wonder ¡­"


    "No rush." Jun Qingshang looked up at Jun Rushi who was sitting on the Dragon Throne discussing matters with the empress dowager, and the smile on his face grew wider, "You''ll understand in a while."


    Yun Ruoleng was even more curious now, his gaze landed on the little emperor''s smiling face as he looked at Jun Qingshang. Presumably, this person had plotted something with the little emperor! Otherwise, why would the two of them be so calm?


    Huang Wanxue was naturally unconvinced with Huang Teng, but this was in the main hall, so she didn''t have a good time arguing with Huang Teng. She could only flick her sleeves in anger and return to her seat, while staring at Yun Ruoleng with her pair of hate-filled phoenix eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes were filled with tears as he looked pitifully at Jun Qingshang. Although Jun Qingshang knew that she was pretending, he didn''t hesitate to pull her into his embrace.


    Huang Wanxue''s gaze was grabbed, and her lips barely formed a smile. "The beauty of a Regent Prince''s consort, this little girl is ashamed of herself."

 C187

    "You are naturally inferior!" Jun Qingshang laughed coldly, "There is only a single Regent King Consort in this world, how can you compare with her?"


    "Eh ¡­" Huang Wanxue''s words had stopped Huang Wanxue, he did not know what to say in front of the person he liked. Hence, the feeling of seeing Yun Ruoleng being held in his arms became more and more unhappy.


    "Princess, do you think you haven''t eaten enough dog food?" Yun Ruoleng felt uncomfortable being stared at. He sat up from Jun Qingshang''s embrace helplessly.


    "How can you be so rude!" Huang Wanxue''s face immediately darkened, and without caring about anything else, he pointed at Yun Ruoleng. "You actually scolded this princess as a dog!"


    Yun Ruoleng innocently pointed to himself, then looked at the Empress Dowager who had just finished her conversation. "Who do you think will know if you don''t admit it? And that''s not what I said. Everyone listened. I didn''t say anything. "


    "Xue''er!" Huang Teng''s brows creased deeper and deeper. Actually he could not understand why the obedient girl from before suddenly became so unruly and willful? He didn''t even want the etiquette of a lady from a noble family.


    Huang Wanxue was restrained by many people, and the anger in his heart accumulated even more. His phoenix eyes were filled with tears as he stared at Huang Teng, "If little sister gets scolded by others, not only will the crown prince not help her, he will also stop her! Is there a brother like you? "


    "You ¡­" Huang Teng originally wanted to reprimand her, but seeing her teary eyes, he could only sigh helplessly. Reaching out, he patted her shoulder in consolation and said: "This is the Heaven''s Initiation, don''t be rude."


    Yun Ruoleng had just used the soul transmission a moment ago, and this was a new skill that he had recently learned. Who let a real woman think of her man?


    Xiahou Jin glanced at Huang Wanxue in disdain, but when his gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng, it became complicated. He only retracted his gaze in an instant, as he silently calculated in his heart how he would be able to attract Jun Qingshang''s attention.


    The banquet began, and the singing and dancing in the great hall became more and more even. However, there were very few people who watched the dance, and most of them were people who raised their cups to invite them to talk about important matters.


    However, Feng Wang Jun Qingfeng just sat there with a frown, his gaze would occasionally glance towards the outside of the hall, and such an abnormal look had long entered the eyes of the people who wanted to take his place.


    Yun Ruoleng waited for Jun Qingshang''s pleasant surprise. Seeing the dancing girls leaving in waves, Yun Ruoleng became more and more curious.


    After three rounds of drinking, the dancers finally left the room. The lights in the Xiangyun Palace suddenly went off, and everyone exclaimed in surprise, as a white light suddenly blossomed from the center of the hall. Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, he guessed that even the people of the 21st century could not imagine such a thing!


    The petals of the water lotus unfolded one by one, and a woman holding a colorful lantern walked out from each of the petals. The petals of the water lotus unfolded one by one, and from each of the petals came out a woman holding a colored lantern.


    Everyone looked at Jun Qingshang with interest, the girl''s dance was much more gentle and beautiful than usual. She wore a thin veil over her face, but her eyes that were filled with love and admiration kept on looking at Jun Qingshang, causing Yun Ruoleng''s face to instantly sink, her small hands pinching his waist that did not have excess flesh.


    "Isn''t it impossible for Yun Yueyu to enter the palace? How is Your Highness going to explain this? "


    Jun Qingshang took a deep breath, held down Yun Ruoleng''s dishonest Demon Claw and laughed bitterly, "This is not my intention, Imperial Mother said that although the daughters of all the ministers are outstanding, they are inferior to the young miss of the Yun Family. Her glory back then was always in the capital."


    "What do you mean?" Yun Ruoleng did not understand what the empress dowager wanted to do. Yun Ruoleng raised his head and subconsciously looked at the empress dowager who was engrossed with her work.


    Jun Qingshang whispered something into his ear, causing Yun Ruoleng''s eyes to light up. So the empress dowager had this skill! But wasn''t this move a bit damaging? I wonder what will happen after Yun Yueyu finds out the truth?


    The more Yun Ruoleng thought about it, the more excited he became. He couldn''t help but find it funny when he thought about how the empress dowager had tricked him, even though he wanted to soar into the heavens.


    Yun Ruoleng was in a good mood, Jun Qingshang also felt that it was good, laughing as he poured a cup of wine for himself, and downed it in one gulp. Huang Teng had been looking at them from the beginning till the end, and only looked towards the stage after he had taken a complete look at the two''s expressions.


    It had to be said that Yun Yueyu''s dancing style was extremely enchanting. Everyone looked at her dancing nonstop on the lotus seat, which had a hint of sexiness in it, causing the man to be enchanted, and the woman to be extremely envious.


    Huang Teng loved beauties, so when he saw such a beauty, his heart tightened. After the dance ended, the lights in the hall started to shine, but the lotus seat in the hall was long gone, leaving behind only Yun Yueyu dressed in her green dress.


    "This subject''s daughter, Yun Yueyu, greets the Emperor. The Emperor shall live for tens of thousands of years, and the empress dowager shall live for thousands of years." Yun Yueyu''s etiquette was complete, and he respectfully kneeled in the hall.


    When the little emperor, Jun Rushi, heard her introducing herself, her expression instantly darkened. Thinking back to what she had said to Royal Grandmother just now, he coldly snorted in his heart, "Miss Yun''s dancing skills are astonishing, you deserve a reward!"


    "This subject thanks Your Majesty for his grace." Yun Yueyu didn''t look down at all, and in addition to the fact that Jun Rushi only looked for an instant, there were very few people who caught him.


    "I''ll give you a hundred taels of gold, one of velvet." Jun Rushi said with a straight face and a serious expression, the little demon in her heart instantly popped out: "Miss Yun looks outstanding, why did you cover her face with a veil today?"


    After Yun Yueyu heard this, he slowly took off his veil, a refined and elegant little face appeared in front of everyone, he had long gotten used to Yun Ruoleng''s beautiful appearance, the crowd did not have much of a reaction towards her, but Huang Teng was different. Compared to Yun Ruoleng''s peerless appearance, he liked women with a feminine air like Yun Yueyu more.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang with a puzzled expression. If he wasn''t mistaken, Huang Teng should have been staring at her the moment she took off her veil. If he had set his eyes on Yun Yueyu, it would be even harder to handle him.


    Jun Qingshang lightly patted her head: "Relax, she already has a fiance, even if Huang Teng likes her, he wouldn''t dare."


    "But she will feel that with her backing, she will become more and more delicate and powerful. When that happens, Qiao Ren Zhong will not be able to take her down." Yun Yueyu and Yun Shicheng were the same kind of people, to be able to become a member of the crown prince''s residence, they looked down upon the poor scholar.


    Seeing Huang Teng''s reaction, the empress dowager couldn''t help but grin from ear to ear. One could imagine how happy the empress dowager was. Yun Shicheng unnoticeably creased his eyebrows. If he wasn''t wrong, the Empress Dowager wanted to give her daughter to the crown prince. Not to mention the crown prince''s character, it was to let his daughter, whom he doted on for so many years, marry far away.


    Jun Rushi said this as he sat her back, allowing her to return to his side and sit down. Yun Yueyu who had just sat down could not help but look at Jun Qingshang, but the moment she came into contact with him, she suddenly received a message, her rosy little face instantly turned white, and stared at Yun Ruoleng resentfully.

 C188

    Jun Qingshang, who possessed a powerful aura, blocked Yun Yueyu''s gaze completely. Her finger, which was sharp and straight to the bone, peeled a fruit for Yun Ruoleng, and Yun Ruoleng ate it without being affected in the slightest. There were two people who loved each other everywhere, causing all the ministers to think about it. On the other hand, the woman was full of envy.


    The empress dowager couldn''t bear to watch any longer and coughed lightly. "The first wife isn''t young anymore. There''s only one main wife in the estate. Before, you said there was no concubine, but now there''s a main wife ¡­"


    "The eldest son of this son must be born directly into the family. Before Ruo Er has a son, this son will not accept any concubines." Jun Qingshang''s gaze turned slightly cold, as he gently swept his gaze across the ministers who were ready to make a move. "Everyone, it''s best if you keep your little thoughts in mind, otherwise, don''t blame this king for turning cold and heartless!"


    When the empress dowager heard this, she could only helplessly sigh. Her gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng''s flat abdomen.


    Huang Teng couldn''t help but glance at Yun Ruoleng, who was sitting beside and eating. Seeing her calm appearance, he couldn''t help but frown. Usually, women would take the initiative to persuade their husbands in order to show their virtue. However, this woman did not try to persuade her husband. On the contrary, she just left it to herself. What an interesting woman.


    This welcoming banquet made Yun Ruoleng extremely uncomfortable, so after the banquet, Yun Ruoleng left depressingly. Jun Qingshang, who had originally wanted to stay behind to discuss things with the little Emperor, had no choice but to decide to leave tomorrow.


    Returning to the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Yun Ruoleng immediately returned to the Water Spirit Pavilion. Jun Qingshang thought about the matter of his mother wanting to marry him off to her concubine, which probably made Yun Ruoleng feel uncomfortable. Hence, Jun Qingshang, who loved his wife as if his life, also followed along.


    "Ruo Er is still angry?"


    "What are you angry about?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, wasn''t everyone in this era the same?


    Polygamous? What could she, Yun Ruoleng, be angry at?


    "This King knows that you are unhappy. In front of so many people, This King can''t possibly reject the Queen Mother''s face." Jun Qingshang pulled the sulking little arrogant wife into his embrace and gently explained, "This king has only one person, and no need to mention Consort Na, even if I sent a woman to this king''s bed, this king would not care."


    Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly. She did not take Jun Qingshang''s words to heart at all, because in this era, monogamy was not possible.


    Jun Qingshang looked at her nonchalant face, frowned slightly, and quickly raised his finger above his head: "I, Jun Qingshang, swear to the heavens again, that I will only marry you, Yun Ruoleng.


    "You ¡­ "Why do you have to suffer?" Yun Ruoleng knew that the most important thing to him was for his children to be unfilial and to live in solitude. Since Jun Qingshang dared to swear such a venomous oath, he must be sincere.


    After sweeping away the haze just now, Yun Ruoleng let out a bitter laugh, "I was overthinking things. I won''t do it again in the future."


    Jun Qingshang looked at the person in his arms who had thought through her personality, and let out a breath of relief as he bit her lips in a punitive manner. Yun Ruoleng protested as she punched him in the heart: "I''m tired."


    "Then sleep." Jun Qingshang stepped down and covered the two of them with the blanket.


    Yun Ruoleng protested and pushed him: "Your Highness, chenqie wants to bathe!"


    "Is my beloved concubine inviting This King?" Jun Qingshang paused for a moment, and then his fingers started to move erratically around her body.


    "Get up!"


    "Together." Jun Qingshang tyrannically carried Yun Ruoleng up from the bed, and without waiting for her to react, he quickly walked to the spirit pond at the back of the room.


    Maybe it was because he was really tired, that when Yun Ruoleng was bathing, he couldn''t even move a finger, and just let Jun Qingshang do whatever he wanted. Jun Qingshang ate all of his tofu and was unable to release his anger for the rest of his life. He could only stare at the person who had long fallen asleep in distress, turned around, and left the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    After the banquet, Huang Teng brought the envoy and Huang Wanxue back to the relay station, causing Huang Wanxue''s temper to rise: "Royal brother, what is there to be afraid of in Tianqi Kingdom? Now that the royal uncle has already relinquished their authority to you, what are you going to do with them? "


    "Princess, your words are wrong." This princess had lost her parents since childhood and grew up by the empress dowager''s side. She was even more refined than an ordinary princess, but her temper was very good, and when they reached the Heavenly Enlightenment Kingdom, this princess'' personality had completely changed, as if she was a completely different person. If not for following them, they would have thought that they had been tricked!


    Huang Wanxue glared at the ambassador with her beautiful eyes. "Then, what do you think is wrong?"


    "Although Your Highness has some rights now, the King is not someone to be trifled with. The King has disappeared for three to four months and only recently did I learn that he had come to the Heaven''s Enlightenment. Princess, think about it, why did he come to the Heaven''s Enlightenment?" Princess is thinking, why did the idle king come here for so many months, and why have we only just received the news? " The envoy''s words caused the angry Huang Wanxue to calm down, and his gaze swept across Huang Teng: "Since royal brother is already a king, why are you still targeting him? Can''t you get along? "


    "Childish, soft-hearted!" Huang Teng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly roared angrily, and his expression became even more gloomy and terrifying.


    Huang Wanxue pulled back his neck, mustered up his courage and wanted to say something, but was scared by his cold gaze and did not dare to say a word. The envoy tactfully retreated, leaving only Huang Wanxue and Huang Teng behind.


    "Huang Wanxue! If you dare to say such words again, don''t blame me for being rude! " Huang Teng looked at her for a long time, but endured his temper in the end.


    Huang Wanxue was indeed scared senseless. After they left, he almost couldn''t stand steadily, and could only support himself on the side unsteadily.


    Everything that had happened here had been passed on to the Regent¡¯s Mansion, although it was not some sort of secret, Jun Qingshang finally understood the intention of the crown prince coming here, it was just that they had missed it, and the Phoenix Map had already left via the water path the day before they arrived.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng spent about four hours to draw a painting as usual, and then spent another four hours to fix it in the side hall of Water Spirit Pavilion. Because she had just entered the peak of the first level, her foundation was somewhat unstable, so Yun Ruoleng did not dare to rashly level up.


    After Yun Ruoleng finished cultivating and came out of his room, he found out that the princess of Yue Ling, Huang Wanxue, had come to visit. Yun Ruoleng had originally planned not to meet him, but upon thinking that the other party seemed to fall in love with his man at first sight, he immediately felt uncomfortable. He brought An Xiang to the guest hall in a hurry.


    "Heaven''s Enlightenment cannot compare to Yue Ling; the climate is moist and gentle. I wonder if princess is used to it?" Yun Ruoleng entered the hall and waved his hand to the servants around him. When the maids saw that Yun Ruoleng had come, Fortune quickly retreated.

 C189

    Huang Wanxue swept a glance at the smiling Yun Ruoleng, and frowned: "I am indeed not used to it, but I guess I must get used to staying here."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, she had a calm expression on her face and was completely unaffected by her words.


    Huang Wanxue completely did not expect Yun Ruoleng to act in such a relaxed manner. Her phoenix eyes slightly raised, as if she was looking at a joke. Huang Wanxue was instantly unhappy. "The Regent Royal Concubine thinks that''s impossible?"


    "It''s possible." Yun Ruoleng laughed, it was possible, but he was not Jun Qingshang! This silly girl was still trying to find out what was going on, but she didn''t know that someone had already sold her out.


    Seeing that she was still calm and collected, Huang Wanxue could not help but frown: "Are you happy?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head before shaking it, "It is the fortune of Heaven''s Enlightenment for you to be able to stay here, I am naturally happy, but ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng sighed, "The Emperor is still young and His Highness is already a legal wife.


    Marry another prince? Huang Wanxue had seen the other dukes before. Although those people looked pretty good, but compared to the Regent, they were like the heavens and the earth.


    Huang Wanxue''s expression instantly changed, and the gaze she shot at Yun Ruoleng became even more unfriendly.


    However, Yun Ruoleng didn''t mind at all as he smiled faintly at her. "It''s a good thing for the princess to get along with us now. If there''s anything in the future, you can just come here to find this wangfei''s Regent¡¯s Mansion."


    "Haha ¡­" Huang Wanxue smirked at Yun Ruoleng. Was this woman stupid? She was a dignified princess. Marrying the Regent as his official wife was the right choice. In addition to her looks, she wasn''t any worse off than her. Yet, she didn''t feel the slightest sense of danger?


    How would Huang Wanxue know that Jun Qingshang was the kind of person who was willing to never let go? Adding Yun Ruoleng''s trust in her, her few words simply could not make her feel threatened.


    "Miss Jin Rou, you can''t ¡­"


    "Get out of the way!" Since when can I not enter the Regent¡¯s Mansion? " At the door, Xiahou Jin Rou pushed aside the servant girls who were blocking her path and walked into the hall with large strides, just in time to see Yun Ruoleng and the smirking Huang Wanxue conversing. She, who was originally furious, directly walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and poured the tea in front of her on Huang Wanxue.


    "How dare you!" Huang Wanxue instinctively stood up, wanting to shake off the water stains on his body, but his clothes were not waterproof. Adding to the fact that the cup of tea in front of Yun Ruoleng was already full, she had poured him almost all of it.


    "This kind of person who wants to seduce his cousin is actually here at home. Don''t be too polite!" Xiahou Jin Rou crossed her arms in front of her chest as she looked down at Yun Ruoleng from above.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, if he didn''t guess wrongly, she was also someone who coveted her man!


    Xiahou Jin Rou completely erased this matter and stared at Huang Wanxue provocatively. Just as Huang Wanxue was about to slap her, he was stopped by the servant girl beside her.


    "Princess, don''t ¡­" Have you forgotten how you promised His Highness when you went out? " The maidservant was smart enough to quickly look at Yun Ruoleng after stopping him, "Esteemed wangfei, my princess is still one of the emissaries. Furthermore, Heaven Awakening and Yue Ling have always been good friends. "


    "Lady''s words don''t sound good." Yun Ruoleng chuckled, "This wangfei didn''t hit her nor did she scold her. She kept provoking my wangfei and didn''t bother with your princess, my little cousin has always had an impatient personality and doesn''t understand anything. Your princess will also become the head of the house in the future, you should learn to get along with your little sister-in-law."


    "You ¡­"


    "Jin Rou too. Why didn''t you say anything when you came?" Yun Ruoleng did not give Huang Wanxue a chance to speak, he pulled the rooster Xiahou Jin Rou and said, "If you accidentally overturned the teacup, why didn''t you apologize to the princess?"


    "I''ll give it to her ¡­" "Fine!" She was not stupid, so she naturally wouldn''t go against Yun Ruoleng and instead, get lucky, "This little girl accidentally knocked over the tea bowls. The princess has a large number of tea bowls, so she wouldn''t argue with me, right?"


    "Hehehe ¡­" When Huang Wanxue heard Xiahou Jin Rou''s words, he could not help but laugh. This woman was truly amazing.


    "Princess, are you not forgiving Jin Rou?" Yun Ruoleng''s words of ''not forgiving'' made Huang Wanxue feel embarrassed.


    Huang Wanxue had grown up in the Imperial Palace after all, so she was naturally not an idiot to be able to live for so long. Huang Wanxue retracted his previous anger, chuckled as he held onto Xiahou Jin Rou''s hand and said, "Little Sister Jin Rou''s temper is a little too anxious, how could I possibly lower myself to her?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head in satisfaction, as though she was very satisfied with her sudden change in attitude, and looked at An Xiang who was behind her. An Xiang understood, and quickly took a look at the tea.


    Xiahou Jin Rou sat at the spot where Yun Ruoleng was at. After looking at Yun Ruoleng''s face once, she glanced at Huang Wanxue, and finally did not say a word. She quietly sat by the side and sipped her tea.


    Yun Ruoleng took a light sip of the tea and smiled faintly to Huang Wanxue: "Princess, are you used to the tea of the Heaven''s Initiation?"


    "Faint." Huang Wanxue did not target Yun Ruoleng, but the tea was indeed light.


    "Longjing was a bit lighter before the rain, but it tastes better." Yun Ruoleng waved to the outside, and a row of maids walked in with a cup of tea. Huang Wanxue and Xiahou Jin Rou looked at Yun Ruoleng in puzzlement.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled at them, then stood up and walked to the side of the first maid: "This is Flowerfruit Tea, it''s light but long between the teeth."


    "Do you, Tianqi, only drink tea?" Huang Wanxue couldn''t help but frown when he heard the two words "Clear Tea".


    Yun Ruoleng covered the teacup and slightly shook his head: "All the tea in the Regent¡¯s Mansion is green tea, the tea in Duke Feng''s mansion is strong tea, and the tea in Duke Ling''s mansion is scented tea."


    Yun Ruoleng paused, "Princess, do you still not understand? Women are just like tea, it''s not that you can get what you want just because you''re good-looking, but that tea isn''t expensive and can go to your noble family''s main hall. "


    "Nonsense!" Huang Wanxue snorted coldly, dismissing the tea that Yun Ruoleng had served, "If people are like tea, then why are there groups of wives and concubines in the backyard of Duke Ling Palace? Their appearances are also different. "


    "Because Ling Wang loves scented tea." Yun Ruoleng pointed to a cup of scented tea beside him. "Every flower has its own unique flavor, which is naturally different from the green tea."


    Huang Wanxue''s lips slightly pursed, for a moment she was almost convinced by Yun Ruoleng''s words, but in the end, lust still took over her mind, acting as if she had heard nothing, and disdainfully brought the servant away.


    Huang Wanxue left, there was no longer any need for her to stay, but she understood Yun Ruoleng''s words, and more or less what she meant was, "It''s yours, after all, it''s not yours, you won''t be able to get it from me."

 C190

    After Yun Ruoleng sent the two of them off, he leaned on the chair tiredly. An Xiang walked behind her and gently pinched her back, making him feel much more relaxed.


    "Is the wangfei not worried about the princess going to find the prince?" Although his mood was good, he was inevitably worried for Yun Ruoleng. After all, the Regent still valued this marriage very highly.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: "I am protecting our family, I believe he will not blame me for offending Huang Wanxue."


    "The wangfei and the prince are in love with each other, neither of you can be separated." An Xiang rubbed Yun Ruoleng''s shoulders as he recounted the matters of the past to him. Yun Ruoleng listened until he was tired and fell asleep on the chair.


    Jun Qingshang was still the first to return and hear what An Ying had to say about what had happened today. Since it was a small matter, he would definitely report it to An Ying as soon as he heard it, and walk towards the Water Spirit Pavilion s. When he heard that Huang Wanxue had come to look for him, his heart tightened, as though he was afraid that Yun Ruoleng had been bullied, and his footsteps became much faster.


    When Jun Qingshang entered the room, he saw Yun Ruoleng leaning on the bed with an ignorant expression.


    Yun Ruoleng turned around and glanced at him, but didn''t say anything. He continued to lean on the side of the bed in a daze.


    "Ruo Er doesn''t seem to be in a good mood?" Jun Qingshang walked in front of her and sat down. Seeing her listless look, he raised his hand and gently touched her forehead.


    "Your Highness, do you think that if I offend Huang Wanxue, it will cause some sort of riot?" Yun Ruoleng was actually a bit worried about this matter, after all, Huang Wanxue''s character was a little strange.


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth lifted slightly, gently stroking her hair: "Silly girl, you''re thinking too much."


    "But ¡­" Yun Ruoleng thought about the Heavenly Aura Nation, where both the Wind King and the Ling King had thoughts of becoming emperor. The seemingly calm and peaceful Heavenly Awakening seemed to be the calm before the storm.


    The curtain slightly lowered as Jun Qingshang comforted Yun Ruoleng and pulled him into his embrace. As his eyes stared at the curtain slightly lowered, he could naturally feel everything that Yun Ruoleng could feel.


    Jun Qingshang sometimes thought how great it would be if Yun Ruoleng wasn''t so smart. At least, she would be able to enjoy life even more.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled faintly from his embrace: "I understand, no matter what happens, we must face it together. You cannot abandon me and face it alone."


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, but he did not agree in his heart. After all, he wanted to give Yun Ruoleng a happier life.


    Yun Ruoleng did not notice the change in Jun Qingshang''s emotions, but when she thought about the things that would happen after they met, her heart became a little chaotic.


    "Today, I came back to bring you some good news." Jun Qingshang suddenly released Yun Ruoleng and spoke to her in a serious tone while holding her hand, "The Board of Justice has made progress in their investigation of the Holy Mother today, and their target is the Yun Mansion."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes slightly narrowed. There had been no progress on Yun Qingyao at all, and right now, he was already locked on, so it was likely that the truth would be revealed very soon. It was just that they did not know if this person was the person they had guessed at.


    Jun Qingyao played with Yun Ruoleng''s soft and soft hands. Seeing her constantly changing expressions, her face no longer looked as serious as before. "Actually, I wanted to use this matter to pull the Lan family down the drain."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly as he looked at him in puzzlement.


    It should be a capital offense to murder the Virgin Mary. Not only that, the Virgin Mary was an existence that surpassed the imperial power. Killing the Virgin Mary was a crime to exterminate the Nine Clans.


    Jun Qingshang raised his hand and gently rubbed her fluffy head, and said with a smile, "The Lan family is a hundred years old family, if it was really done by that mother and daughter pair, then the Lan family would definitely break off all ties."


    Yun Ruoleng scratched his chin as he thought about it. He felt that what Jun Qing Shang said was not really true, although it would damage his reputation, but it would be worth it to be able to protect their foundation!


    "Did the Prince tell me this to tell me something?" Yun Ruoleng cleared her doubts, as her small face slightly changed, "You can''t be thinking of leaving everything to the Lan family, right?"


    After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he shook his head disapprovingly: "No, let''s not talk about whether this group of people will fall for it, even if they fall for it, they will inevitably fall for it."


    "Ruo Er is smart. Have you thought of a good way for this king?" Jun Qingshang could tell this little girl had her own ideas from the way she was acting. It was quite possible that this was a good idea.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes and innocently shook his head: "A method that even the famous Regent, who can''t think of, can''t think of, what good idea does this little girl have?"


    Jun Qingshang stared at Yun Ruoleng''s watery phoenix eyes for a long time, and in the end, laughed lightly, not saying a word.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned into his embrace, enjoying the moment of peace.


    In a blink of an eye, two days had passed. In these few days, Huang Wanxue had been running to his Regent¡¯s Mansion all day, and at the beginning, Yun Ruoleng had people entertain him.


    Today, Huang Wanxue had come again, but this time he was the one who came. Yun Ruoleng was very curious why the siblings were here. But this time, she did not delay and brought An Xiang and Peach Blossom out to welcome them.


    "Your Highness, are you looking for me?" Yun Ruoleng received them in the hall. Upon entering, he started to look around, but upon reaching the hall, he became restless.


    After being asked like that, Huang Teng nodded casually: "I did indeed come to find you today. Does the princess know where he is? "


    "The Emperor has some homework to do this afternoon. I assume that the prince is currently in the imperial study to help the Emperor read the imperial reports." Yun Ruoleng quietly smiled, and out of the corner of his eyes, he could completely see the expression of Huang Wanxue, who had been sitting quietly to the side the entire time.


    Huang Teng was startled, and the look in his eyes changed a lot.


    The envoy was not allowed to enter the palace without being summoned, but there was only a single woman left in the Regent¡¯s Mansion, so the Regent was at ease.


    Huang Teng wasn''t a phoenix, so she naturally wasn''t clear about Yun Ruoleng''s methods. She only thought of her as a woman, and after hearing what she said, she couldn''t help but feel disdain for Jun Qingshang.


    "If there''s nothing else, Your Highness, please leave! After all, there are so many secrets in the Regent¡¯s Mansion. If something were to accidentally drop, it would be hard to not suspect your Highness. How could Yun Ruoleng not see Huang Teng''s disdain, he just disdained at her, and disdained her princes.


    Therefore, the way he spoke changed as well. He directly ordered them to leave made Huang Teng a little dazed.


    "Woman, you really don''t know what''s good for you!" It is your fortune that the Crown Prince has come to see you, and yet you dare to chase us away? " Huang Wanxue could not bear to listen any longer, he slapped the table, "Aren''t you afraid of hurting the peace between the two countries?"

 C191

    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrow, this woman was actually not as foolish as he had imagined. At a time like this, she still knew about the relationship between the two countries, so she could be considered a person with some experience.


    But who was Yun Ruoleng? Would he be afraid because of her words?


    Yun Ruoleng disdainfully swept his eyes across Huang Wanxue, "It''s better for the princess to not to say these words. If the two nations really want to start a war, then small matters will all become the trigger."


    Huang Teng coldly swept a glance at Huang Wanxue who looked like he wanted to speak, and immediately shut his mouth as he lowered his head, not daring to make a sound.


    "Not bad, sharp tongued."


    "Your majesty is flattering me." Yun Ruoleng smiled lightly at him without a care, then made an inviting gesture: "If Your Highness wishes to find Your Highness, please come to me tomorrow morning, I have nothing much to discuss with Your Highness."


    Huang Teng''s eyes turned deep, the lady was not courteous at all, driving them away was not an act of mercy at all! No wonder Wan Xue was angry.


    Yun Ruoleng had already sent off his guests, so it was not good for him to stay here any longer, so he could only bring Huang Wanxue and head out of the Palace.


    In the imperial study, Jun Rushi was holding his head up while looking at Jun Qingshang seriously while reading the imperial reports. It was unknown how long he read for, but he turned around and ordered everyone to leave the imperial study.


    "royal uncle, when Huang Teng brought people here this time, he wanted to make a marriage, but all the royal uncle are already married. This princess is a proud and arrogant person, it is said that the Yue Ling Emperor has always raised her as a princess."


    "There''s only one choice." Jun Qingshang did not even raise his head as he wrote a few words powerfully on the imperial report with his wrist, and then said slowly, "Your Nine royal uncle Jun Qingjing already has an feudal fiefdom in Jing City, but you''re still roaming around. You''re now at the right age to get married, and are currently married to this princess."


    Ninth Imperial Uncle and Yun Yi were in the same boat, but Yun Yi went out to find a place to sit as the chief of the martial arts alliance. Ninth Imperial Uncle was looking for a place to compete in painting and poetry, but he didn''t even have a title, and so every time Imperial Grandmother heard of this, she would feel a headache.


    Furthermore, the Nine royal uncle s did not seem to have any intention of getting married. If they were to be scammed like this by the royal uncle, they would probably run away from home.


    Jun Qingshang did not take this matter to heart at all, and changed the topic, "Have the Prime Minister, Imperial Tutor and Minister of Rites enter the palace."


    Jun Rushi replied before looking at Jun Qingshang with extreme curiosity, "Why are you looking for them?"


    "A minister of the humerus, naturally, should have the appearance of a minister of the humerus." Jun Qingshang chuckled, and did not name the matter.


    Jun Rushi rubbed his nose, and coldly snorted in his heart, unconvinced. However, he did not continue asking, and after calling in Little De to finish giving orders, he looked at Jun Qingshang: "Didn''t royal uncle say that there is a clue to the death of the Holy Mother? What kind of clues are these? "


    "You have to ask the Board of Justice about this. How does This King know?" Jun Qingshang closed the imperial report in his hand with a "pa" sound, "Today, we must settle the matter of where the feudal prince went. It is not a good thing for these people to stay in the capital."


    "Shouldn''t the royal uncle be afraid of these people recruiting after they leave? After all, the military seal is still in our hands. " Jun Rushi raised her chin proudly, but got a supercilious look from her.


    "Childish!" Jun Qingshang pushed the report forward: "They are not stupid, if they were to come back from such a long distance, I''m afraid that the financial resources will not allow it."


    Jun Rushi shrunk his head and thought about how powerful his royal uncle was. Even if he sent him away, he would have a way to deal with it.


    Several ministers of the humerus quickly entered the imperial study. Little De Zi knew that they had important matters to discuss, so he shut the door tightly. He stood at the doorway and ordered, "The emperor is meeting with the ministers, we won''t meet anyone!"


    "Yes sir!" The young eunuch at the door responded with an ingratiating tone, then he lowered his head and stood respectfully by the door.


    When Jun Qingshang returned to his Regent¡¯s Mansion, it was almost evening. When he returned to the Duke Palaces, he still went to the Spirit Water Pavilion first. Yun Ruoleng stood at the door and waited for him. Seeing that he had returned, she immediately stepped forward and held his hand: "Today, Huang Teng has come looking for you, but I seemed to have chased him away."


    "They''ve been in the Heavenly Awakening Realm for some time. They probably want to talk about marriage with me." Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace. "I''ve already told the emperor about this, so you don''t have to worry."


    "What am I worried about?" Yun Ruoleng pouted. "I''m worried about Big Brother Yi now, but Yun Shicheng found out that he came back, and got someone to specifically bring him back."


    Jun Qingshang frowned, his expression becoming a lot darker. "Yun Yi was not casually manipulated, you can rest assured."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, he did not want to continue this topic, so the two of them went back to Water Spirit Pavilion together.


    On the other side, Huang Teng brought the furious Huang Wanxue back to the inn. However, Huang Teng didn''t console her sister and instead had her locked up immediately. After Huang Wanxue found out about it, he made a mess around the room.


    "Your Highness, if the princess were to act in such a manner, the people at the inn might discover the abnormality."


    "Shouldn''t she be punished for offending the regent''s consort?" Huang Teng was not an idiot. Even though he had a violent personality, he was indeed a meticulous person and was able to see that even the empress dowager of the imperial palace, as well as the maids and attendants of the Regent¡¯s Mansion, were all obedient to this woman, Yun Ruoleng. Furthermore, this woman was able to kick out his country''s crown prince without fear.


    Huang Teng''s words made the official extremely disapprove: "She''s just a woman, Your Highness, there''s no need to worry. The Regent would not harm the friendship between the two countries for a woman. "


    Huang Teng''s violent eyes swept across the Grand Duke who had just spoken and he snorted coldly, "Idiot!"


    The Minister was so frightened that his entire body trembled. He broke out in a cold sweat, but he didn''t know why he had been scolded?


    Early morning of the second day, Huang Teng brought a few people to visit Jun Qingshang. After hearing An Ying''s report, Jun Qingshang and he looked at each other and laughed, then Yun Ruoleng personally helped him put on his clothes.


    "This crown prince is really active." Yun Ruoleng pressed the black jade onto the corner of his robe, and said with a smile.


    "The time that the Yue Ling Emperor has given him is limited. If he fails to complete the mission, I''m afraid his days will not end well." Jun Qingshang spread out his arms, but there was still Yun Ruoleng considerately helping him tidy his clothes, lowering his head and looking at Yun Ruoleng evilly.


    Yun Ruoleng''s hands paused slightly as he raised his head to look at Jun Qingshang with suspicion: "Why?"


    "The emperors all have their own doubts. In addition to the fact that the Phoenix Diagram has ability and backing, the emperors want to nurture a crown prince who will side with them. This crown prince''s life will look bright and beautiful on the surface, but he will have no real power behind the scenes." Jun Qingshang felt that Yun Ruoleng was still a little naive. She didn''t even know about the darkness of the palace, and there was no love between brothers at all.


    Jun Qingshang reached out and caressed her hair, "Let''s sleep a little more, it''s still early."

 C192

    Yun Ruoleng stared at Jun Qingshang''s beautiful face with her sparkling phoenix eyes: "I have to wake up early today, I''m going to the palace to chat with mother!"


    Seeing that, Jun Qingshang laughed lightly and nodded, allowing her to go. Yun Ruoleng''s gaze only returned after he left, and she called Peach Blossom to help herself with her makeup.


    Because she had to enter the palace today, she couldn''t simply wear it. Peach Blossom had prepared a pink hibiscus dress for her, and a pink hibiscus shoulder. Her hair was tied up in a luan bun.


    The heavy headwear made Yun Ruoleng unaccustomed to it as he moved his neck.


    "Miss, don''t move!" Peach Blossom moved Yun Ruoleng''s head forward and spoke with a straight face, "Come to the palace today, you must dress up beautifully so that no one in the palace will look down on you."


    "Aiya!" Yun Ruoleng reached out to grab the hairpin in her hands, "My neck is about to be crushed, you''re not allowed to add it anymore."


    Peach Blossom expressed helplessness. Every time she combed her hair, this scene would play out. She was used to it, but this time, she couldn''t do as she pleased. Entering the palace to see the empress dowager, dressing up was a form of courtesy.


    "If Miss doesn''t accept, it is a form of disrespect to the Empress Dowager." Peach Red explains as she tries to pin a hairpin on her head.


    In the end, Yun Ruoleng used his hand to stop her: "Stop adding it onto my head, it''s already very heavy, okay?"


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was really angry, Tao Hong did not dare to place the hairpin on her head anymore. She could only sigh and place the hairpin into the jewelry box.


    Jun Qingshang walked into the hall and saw Huang Teng dressed in a black robe sitting on the right side of the table and tasting tea. Seeing Jun Qingshang''s symbolic nod of head, Jun Qingshang did not mind and picked up his robes to sit down: "Why is the crown prince looking for me?"


    "The Regent has always been well-informed. I believe you know why I came to the Heavenly Awakening Realm." With Jun Qingshang going straight to the point, Huang Teng would naturally not be polite.


    Jun Qingshang''s phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, and did not flinch in the slightest when faced with Huang Teng''s ruthless expression. After the two of them had looked at each other for a few seconds, Huang Teng lost his patience and coldly snorted: "It can''t be that the Regent does not want to get along well with the other nations, right?"


    "Friendship between two countries is not an easy matter. It is not something that can be solved by a single woman." Jun Qingshang lazily retracted his gaze, and lowered his head to turn the storage ring on his hand, "Does the crown prince think so?"


    Huang Teng really did not have any room to refute, he was only squashed by Jun Qingshang, his entire being was no longer happy, the evil aura around his body had become even stronger, "But a few years is enough, the Regent needs a few years, isn''t that right?"


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes raised her eyebrows and stared at him with a smile that was not a smile: "This king does not have these past few years that can still calm the heavens down, but it''s troublesome. Coincidentally, this king''s beloved concubine likes trouble doing so."


    "You ¡­" Huang Teng took a deep breath, "What does the Regent want?"


    "Not much. A letter of friendship that the two countries will have a good relationship with each other within ten years." Jun Qingshang changed the storage ring to a different direction and looked at Huang Teng with a determined gaze.


    Huang Teng''s heart trembled, his gaze became more profound, as though he was thinking about something, in the end, he still nodded his head.


    "Princess is a golden branch jade leaf from the Yue Ling. No one can treat her lightly when it comes to Heaven''s Initiation." As Jun Qingshang''s voice fell, Huang Teng nodded his head in approval. Although this little sister was only spoiled, she had still grown up watching everything. As a chess piece, he still hoped that she would be a useful chess piece.


    "This King discussed with the Emperor yesterday and decided to recall King Jing to the capital."


    Huang Teng''s expression slightly changed, and his gaze landed on Jun Qingshang. Jun Qingshang gave him a cold glance, "This king can only marry one wangfei, this king appreciates the princess'' kindness."


    Huang Teng nodded and looked at Jun Qingshang with suspicion: "May I ask who this Jing King is?"


    "Brother Jing Wang is the ninth youngest brother of this king. However, he has a good life and rarely returns to the Imperial Palace. Many people have even forgotten that he is this king''s younger brother." Seeing that Huang Teng''s complexion looked much better, Jun Qingshang did not continue.


    After Huang Teng and Huang Teng finished their discussion, Huang Teng took his leave, leaving Jun Qingshang alone in the hall. An Ying quickly entered the hall and clasped his hands at Jun Qingshang: "The Duke''s carriage is already prepared, Princess is waiting for you inside."


    Jun Qingshang nodded, he stood up and tidied up the non-existent clothes on his body, then walked towards the direction of the big gate.


    Once Huang Teng returned to the inn, he quickly sent people over to investigate the Jing King''s matter, but he decided to have a good talk with Huang Wanxue about this matter.


    "What is the princess doing?" In Huang Wanxue''s courtyard, two rows of servants stood facing each other, holding red lacquer trays in their hands, with some jewelry and rouge powder on the trays. Huang Teng subconsciously frowned.


    "In reply to Your Highness, the princess is inside studying the cosmetic powder of the Heaven''s Initiation." The head servant standing by the door respectfully looked at Huang Teng.


    Huang Teng slightly nodded as he released a ruthless aura that was difficult to conceal, "Go and report this."


    The head servant shrank in response, quickly opening the door and entering the room. After a while, she came out to invite Huang Teng in.


    The moment Huang Teng stepped into the room, he could not help but frown: "What is this smell?"


    "The scent of rouge." Huang Wanxue sat in front of the mirror, with a basin of clear water in front of him, he carefully stirred the water. From the mirror, Huang Teng could tell that he was not in a good mood due to the smell.


    The corner of Huang Wanxue''s mouth raised slightly. Only in this way would he be able to make him lose out, but he couldn''t be too angry, otherwise the one who would be at a disadvantage would be himself. Huang Wanxue immediately stood up and pulled Huang Teng away: "Royal brother does not like this smell, let''s go sit next door."


    Huang Teng snorted, when he reached the door, he flung Huang Wanxue''s hand away and said to the servant by his side: "Clean this up."


    The servants did not dare to breathe too loudly, and immediately replied and quickly went to Wang Huang Wanxue''s room, without waiting for his order to stop them, they heard Huang Teng say: "Speak from the inside."


    Huang Wanxue angrily glared at him, but she was helpless as she was unable to beat him up, and could only follow him into the room. In the blink of an eye, they had already cleaned up the entire room, even the smell in the room had disappeared, causing Huang Teng''s complexion to look much better.


    "The Regent of Heaven''s Enlightenment wields the power of the Heavenly Enlightenment, and is the pillar of the entire Heavenly Enlightenment. It would be better to say that he is the King or the real Emperor ¡­" Huang Teng paused here, his eyebrows knitted slightly as he looked at Huang Wanxue who had a foolish smile on his face: "It''s a pity that he''s an infatuated person. He''s already betrothed you to his younger brother, Jun Qingjing."


    "What?" The smile on Huang Wanxue''s face froze, and he looked at Huang Teng with some anticipation: "Brother Huang didn''t agree, right?"


    "I agree!" Huang Teng''s words were like a sharp sword that pierced Huang Wanxue''s heart, causing it to instantly shatter and shatter.


    "Imperial Brother, you clearly know ¡­"

 C193

    "This matter cannot be decided by me!" Huang Teng interrupted her words with a cold shout, and the aura around her immediately cooled down.


    Huang Wanxue choked on her saliva and could not help but ask: "You have not fought for it, how do you know that it is not possible? Where did that big brother Crown Prince who dotes on me go to? "


    "Wan Xue, the royal family doesn''t have any true love." Huang Teng''s violent eyes swept across Huang Wanxue''s small face that could not believe it, "I have treated you well for so many years, you should repay me!"


    "Haha ¡­" Huang Wanxue laughed dryly, his legs could not help but retreat, until he had nowhere to retreat to, "So that''s what royal brother always planned. But you are wrong! Not everyone in the royal family is heartless, such as the Regent and the Little Emperor.


    "This matter is not up to you!"


    Don''t look at his face, Huang Teng didn''t want to look at her anymore. "This is also royal father''s decision before we part. "Do your best."


    After Huang Teng left, Huang Wanxue leaned against the side of the bed and sat down dejectedly, with both hands hugging his knees.


    At this moment, she understood the meaning of what Yun Ruoleng had said that day.


    At this moment, she finally understood. So it turned out that the Imperial Family was truly ruthless, surpassing even emotions.


    It was a blessing for Dong Yue and Tian Qi to have two nations. Jun Qingshang had given Huang Wanxue to Jun Qingjing as his principal wife, and Jing Wang, who was also his younger brother, was originally an idle person.


    After the Holy Maiden''s blessings for them on the Heaven Altar, the entire capital began to boil.


    At the same time, another piece of news came from the Imperial Palace. All the princes had returned to their fiefdom after their marriage. The other princes were still alright, but the Duke of Feng and Duke Ling had a large argument, so there was nothing they could do about it. The Regent of the Empress Dowager and the ministers left behind by the late emperor had already discussed this matter.


    After Huang Wanxue became rowdy for a while, he became well-behaved. After knowing that he was a victim, his personality became taciturn, which made Huang Teng a little worried. After all, he had doted on his little sister for so many years. He really wanted to console her, but he didn''t know how to begin.


    The Yue Ling Envoys had been here for an entire month. In this period of time, because the weather had changed so quickly, Yun Ruoleng had put on a blue pear blossom jacket skirt and a blue pear blossom jacket, making him look even more spirited. Because he had broken through to the early stages, Yun Ruoleng''s entire person looked even more ice-cold and pure.


    "Miss, the princess of Yue Ling bestowed upon Ninth Prince Jing Wang the title of principal wife. Peach Blossom couldn''t help but exclaim as she inserted the last jade-green gold hairpin into Yun Ruoleng''s hair.


    "What''s wrong with that?" Yun Ruoleng chuckled, "Jingcheng is Heaven''s Enlightenment''s top ranked capital, it has a natural disposition of being carefree and heroic. It''s not wrong for Huang Wanxue to marry him, but today, the two of us are getting married, if I dress up brightly, wouldn''t that be the same as stealing the limelight from a bride and groom?"


    "But Miss''s clothes aren''t like that of a princess'' concubine in the Regent¡¯s Mansion. Although she doesn''t look like a maid, she''s more or less the same as a maid." Peach Blossom looked at the hairpins on her head in disdain.


    She couldn''t figure it out. There were obviously so many hairpins in the jewelry box, but this guy just didn''t pick the right one.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes slightly swept across the jewelry box that was filled to the brim, and frowned: "These things are too heavy, and can be left untouched. Pick a few for yourself, and pick some for Cui Ying to look at as well."


    Yun Ruoleng treated the servants very well, it was just that the probability of being a servant was only amongst Peach Blossom, Cui Ying and An Xiang.


    Peach Red looked at the box of jewelry, then thought about the jewelry on her dressing table, and her little face immediately darkened: "Miss, my jewelry box is full, and you''re still stuffing it in my place! Moreover, this is the latest news that the prince has ordered his men to give to you. If you say that you want to give it to him as you please, he will definitely be unhappy. "


    Yun Ruoleng did not care about all these, she only took out a hairpin and placed it in her pink hair as a gift, "You have to prepare your dowry for yourself, these things are good for you to keep, if you marry far away, I will not worry too."


    "I won''t marry!"


    Peach Blossom took out the hairpin from her head and threw it into the jewelry box. With tears in her eyes, she said, "This servant will protect the young miss and won''t go anywhere."


    "Why are you guarding me?" Yun Ruoleng looked at the hairpin lying inside the jewelry box, and frowned: "When you grow up, you always have to marry. You don''t even know what you''ll be like after I grow up, why are you suffering yourself."


    "No matter how bitter it is, this servant has followed the Miss here. What''s the rest in the future?" As Peach Blossom spoke, she began to cry, "Could it be that Miss doesn''t want this servant anymore?"


    "Ai ai! Why are you crying? I didn''t say that I wouldn''t take you! " Yun Ruoleng was shocked by Peach Blossom''s actions and quickly apologized, "I was wrong, let''s not talk about this anymore. In the future, I will eat meat and porridge with you, and you will also eat porridge with me, okay?"


    "Does Miss''s words count?" Tao Hong was truly frightened, and her words did not have the courtesy from before. She looked at Yun Ruoleng with her watery eyes, and her delicate and touching look made Yun Ruoleng nod his head without hesitation.


    Peach Blossom broke into laughter. She wiped the tears off her face with her hand and said happily, "With what little miss has said, little miss can forget about leaving this servant behind in the future."


    "You ¡­ "Sigh!" Yun Ruoleng was actually very troubled. After all, she did not dare guarantee how things would be in the future. She still had confidence in Jun Qingshang.


    After Yun Ruoleng consoled Peach Blossom, he brought her to the Jing King Manor. As she was the brother of the Regent, as well as the Emperor''s uncle and his wife who was a princess of the Kingdom of Yue Ling, there was no need to talk about this wedding anymore.


    The moment Jun Qingshang led Yun Ruoleng into Jing King Manor, the surrounding people took a deep breath. As the groom, Jun Qingjing, couldn''t help but exclaim in admiration when he saw the couple walk in: "Elder brother Huang, sister-in-law is so beautiful."


    This was Yun Ruoleng''s first time seeing this Jing King. It was said that he liked poetry and had only been back in the capital for a few days, but there was no news of him after he returned to the capital.


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised up as he looked at the black faced man next to him. "No matter how beautiful Ruo Er is, she''s not as pretty as a bride, and it''s said that I''ve seen the bride before as well, and it''s been said that she''s the prettiest girl in East Peak."


    The officials and their wives all nodded in agreement. The smile on Jun Qingjing''s face grew more pronounced. He cupped his hands and said, "My royal brother is being rude. I have forgotten to acknowledge your forgiveness."


    "Get up." Jun Qingshang raised his hand to block the greeting from Jun Qingjing, "For Ruo Er to receive your words, it means that Ruo Er is truly beautiful. Why is this king angry?"

 C194

    "Royal brother is right." Jun Qingjing glanced at the calm and composed Yun Ruoleng with a smile.


    Jun Qingshang did not notice this action, but Yun Ruoleng took a good look at his expression, Yun Ruoleng did not say a word and pulled on Jun Qingshang''s sleeves with a faint smile.


    "It''s getting late, hurry up and pick up the bride!" Jun Qingshang patted his shoulder and laughed heartily.


    Jun Qingjing nodded with a smile. "Brother Huang is waiting for my good news!"


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang rarely laughed so happily, but he was unexpectedly happy today. Yun Ruoleng felt that he should not disturb his mood, and decided to talk about these things after he returned home.


    Jun Qingshang watched as Jun Qingjing brought along the betrothal gift, Hao Tang, and the others towards the inn. At this time, a figure jumped out from the crowd and before Yun Ruoleng could say a word, everyone had already knelt down.


    "Long live the Emperor!"


    Jun Rushi coughed lightly, and raised his hand to signal everyone to stand up before saying to Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang: "royal uncle Royal Aunt, Royal Grandmother''s carriage is almost here, let''s go greet them at the door!"


    Jun Qingshang''s handsome face, which was just brimming with laughter a moment ago, instantly darkened when he saw Jun Rushi: "You have one that ran out?"


    "No, no!" Jun Rushi pointed to the few hidden guards and muttered, "We are here to set up a trap! I am just afraid that Huang Teng will suddenly cause trouble. "


    Yun Ruoleng laughed softly while covering his face. Then, Jun Qingshang rolled his eyes at him rudely, "Forget it, it''s best if you didn''t run out here by yourself."


    "Heh heh." Jun Rushi''s gaze flashed, so fast that Jun Qingshang could not catch it.


    Jun Qingshang held Yun Ruoleng''s hand and, without even looking at him once, turned around and walked toward the entrance of Duke Jing Palace. Jun Rushi was slightly stunned for a moment before he quickly chased after him, leaving the ministers behind to stare at each other in dismay.


    Jun Qingshang brought everyone and stood at the entrance, and with a glance, he could see that there was a pair of people heading over. Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows at Jun Qingshang.


    Even though Jun Qingshang did not speak, he knew this better than anyone else. He shot a cold glance at Jun Rushi, who was beside him. Jun Rushi subconsciously frowned.


    The phoenix sedan stopped at the door, and the Empress Dowager walked out of the carriage with the help of her servant. Yun Ruoleng bowed in greeting, followed by the other officials behind her all saluting. The empress dowager reached out to help Yun Ruoleng up with a smile, and held onto her son''s hand with one hand. She smiled and said, "Today, your Ninth royal brother is getting married, and this one is very happy. All of you, accompany this one to have a drink."


    "Huh?" Yun Ruoleng was a little stupefied, his gaze landed on the Jun Qingshang who had an unhappy face.


    Jun Qingshang did not even look at her, and immediately retracted his hand. "Imperial Mother, there are still so many people watching here!"


    "Royal Grandmother, she ¡­" Jun Rushi stuck his head out from beside Yun Ruoleng and looked at the Empress Dowager with a disbelieving expression.


    "Cough, cough." The empress dowager gave a light cough before retracting her expression and said in all seriousness, "It''s rare for Prince Jing to get married. Today, all of you will stay here until you''re drunk."


    "Empress Dowager Xie!" Everyone was puzzled as they looked at the majestic empress dowager. Parents could understand that, after all, their son had returned after so many years. It was inevitable that he would have a barrier in his heart if he came back with a wife.


    Since King Jing''s wedding banquet was to form two countries, it was naturally much bigger than an ordinary duke''s wedding banquet. The Emperor had even pardoned the world and celebrated together, this was precisely to let Huang Teng know how much he valued her little sister, as well as the friendship between the two.


    Not long after Jun Qingjing left, he returned with a bridal sedan. His gentle and refined face was brimming with a smile, but it wasn''t a very wide smile. Furthermore, when his gaze fell upon his body, he couldn''t help but feel that there was something strange about it.


    Jun Qingjing kicked the sedan chair''s door as he greeted the bride inside. In the end, when the ceremony was completed, Jun Qingjing came out after sending the bride back to her bridal chamber. Although there was a smile on her face, it was hard for Yun Ruoleng to hide it as it was a fake smile.


    After returning to the Regent¡¯s Mansion from the Jing King Manor, Yun Ruoleng began to narrate what he had seen and heard today. At the beginning, Jun Qingshang had only thought that it was because of Yun Ruoleng''s nervousness, but the more she said, the more he felt that something was wrong.


    "I know." Yun Ruoleng leaned into Jun Qingjing''s embrace, "It can''t be that he hates you because of their marriage, right? That''s not good. "


    Jun Qingshang frowned, although he could not deny that it was possible, Jun Qingshang did not want to hurt his bloodline. It was not that he was soft-hearted, it was that the royal family did not have any kinship with him, and he was his only younger brother.


    At the moment, within the Minister¡¯s Mansion, Qiao Ren Zhong had been brought back to the Minister¡¯s Mansion by Yun Shicheng. At the beginning, he had been suspicious, but when he saw Yun Yueyu, he seemed to have understood something.


    "Child! "Your uncle has let you down. Yesterday, the empress dowager sent out an imperial decree to give Little Child to Crown Prince Yue Ling. Look ¡­"


    "Since it''s the empress dowager''s wish, this official has no objections." Qiao Ren Zhong''s expression did not change at all, he respectfully cupped his hands towards Yun Shicheng and said, "As long as Miss Yun does not regret it."


    Yun Yueyu lowered her head, and nodded her head weakly: "Thank you for your reminder, Master Qiao. I will not regret it."


    After Qiao Ren and Zhong bade farewell to Yun Shicheng, they quickly rushed to the Regent¡¯s Mansion. He felt that he should first discuss this matter with Yun Ruoleng, before deciding to rescind the engagement, whether or not it would affect her plans.


    As an ally, he couldn''t drag her down.


    "Your majesty and the wangfei are resting. Your majesty will come back tomorrow!" Qiao Ren Zhong rushed to the door but was stopped by the guard at the door. He was anxious, wanting to barge in but not daring to do so. He could only stand at the door and walk back and forth.


    The gatekeeper was also very vexed. He couldn''t close the door if he didn''t leave! Thus, the servant went to look for An Ying, and when An Ying heard of it, he immediately ordered his servants to chase him away. Before Qiao Ren Zhong left, he took a deep look at the signboard at the Regent¡¯s Mansion entrance.


    The next day, after Yun Ruoleng received the news that Qiao Ren Zhong was looking for him, he frowned in displeasure: "Why didn''t you say so earlier?"


    "This servant only just heard it." Peach Blossom innocently looked at Yun Ruoleng. If not for her going out to buy things today, she really wouldn''t know.


    "Send someone to get him here." There must be a reason for Qiao Ren Zhong to come to Regent¡¯s Mansion to look for him in the middle of the night. Yun Ruoleng did not dare to be careless.


    Tao Hong responded, she helped Yun Ruoleng set up a fruit plate, then quickly went to find someone to inform Qiao Ren Zhong.


    In Peace Palace, Jun Qingshang and the Little Emperor were called over by the empress dowager. The two of them were very confused.

 C195

    "Sigh!" "Jing Er will be leaving after a few days, leave this old bones of mine in the palace." When the empress dowager saw the two enter, she began to complain. "This new daughter-in-law of mine still has to accompany her. Do you think that brat has any ulterior motives in angering me?"


    "Isn''t it normal to leave?" It would be a problem if he didn''t leave.


    Jun Qingshang took a sip of the tea and spoke in a neutral tone: "Brother Jing does not like the noise in the capital, so going out is also a good thing.


    "Speaking of which, I do remember something." The empress dowager''s expression sank slightly. "This Dowager betrothed Minister Yun''s eldest daughter, Yun Yueyu, to Crown Prince Yue Ling."


    "Hmm?" The expressions of Jun Qingshang and Jun Rushi both changed slightly. After they looked at each other, their expressions became even more puzzled.


    "Didn''t my royal grandmother not like Yun Yueyu? Why did you betroth her to someone else? " After all, Jun Rushi was still young. Even though he was much more sensible than his peers, he was still a child after all, so he could only speak a little more straightforwardly.


    The empress dowager pursed her lips and smiled in embarrassment, "Isn''t she supposed to have nothing better to do than be a maid?" Furthermore, that girl Xue''er also said that her royal brother likes Yun Yueyu. "


    "Muhou ¡­" Jun Qingshang''s finger gently rubbed his temple, and said with a helpless tone, "Can you not cause trouble? I, Yun Yueyu, am already engaged. "


    The empress dowager shook her head. "Since Yun Shicheng accepted the imperial decree, then he has already decided to marry his daughter into a distant marriage. Even Yun Shicheng isn''t worried, what is a child like you worrying about?"


    "You are too willful." At this point, Jun Qingshang could only helplessly think of a way to save her. Other than that, he really did not know how to describe this empress who lived deeply in the harem.


    Jun Rushi was finally able to witness his royal grandmother''s ability to cause trouble for him. Yesterday, she was still talking about the matter of the Holy Mother and the Lan family, but today, this loving royal grandmother had already made such a decision.


    At the same time, the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched when she heard the news. When she thought about how Yun Yueyu was going to marry Huang Teng, her entire being did not look good.


    How could the person who caused the death of Yun Ruoleng leave so easily?


    Yun Ruoleng did not realize that the evil aura being emitted from her body was not the least bit weaker than Huang Teng''s.


    Within half a month of time, Huang Tu rushed back to the Duke''s Mansion due to the lack of Yue Ling, but he did not directly enter the palace. On the contrary, the moment he returned, he started to indulge in drinking.


    The singing and dancing in the palace were peaceful, but no one knew that in the Residence of Xian Wang, Phoenix Diagram was sitting upright in his study. His long and narrow phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed as he released all of his energy, causing the dark guard kneeling on the ground to tremble.


    "Marriage?" Huang Tu sneered, "Send people to keep watch. This king wants to see if this crown prince can come back alive."


    "Yes sir!" The guard quickly flew away from Huang Teng with the wine on the table, he laughed sinisterly and walked out of the room.


    There were countless experts by Huang Teng''s side, and many of them wanted to take Huang Teng''s life. On one side, there were Southern Barbaric people that were eyeing him like a tiger, and on the other side, there was a prince. In order to ensure Huang Teng''s safety, Jun Qingshang had also put in a lot of effort. So Huang Teng was able to live this long.


    The matter of Yun Yueyu marrying Huang Teng instantly spread throughout the capital. Because it was the imperial concubine''s imperial decree, many people came to congratulate him. Because they were short on time, First Madam and Yun Shicheng had prepared a lot of things.


    In order to express the importance that the Imperial Family placed on this matter, Jun Rushi helplessly called Yun Yueyu "Princess He Yue" and even prepared a dowry for her.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang sat facing each other, and a game of chess was in front of them. After a black piece of Jun Qingshang landed on the game board, he sighed helplessly, "This king really doesn''t know what my mother will do."


    "So be it!" Yun Ruoleng chuckled, and Bai Zi landed next to Hei Zi. "The empress dowager has her reasons for doing this, but it doesn''t stop me from doing things."


    "Ruo Er has a strategy?" Jun Qingshang held onto the chess piece, and after thinking for a moment, he picked up the chess piece.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, she did have a good idea, and this idea would make it so that Yun Yueyu would never be able to recover.


    "What method?" Jun Qingshang immediately threw the chess pieces back into the chess box, and curiously raised his eyebrows at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed and shook his head: "Heaven''s luck cannot be revealed, if Your Highness wants to know, can you wait until tomorrow?"


    Jun Qingshang said in a slightly quiet manner: "It piqued my curiosity, why didn''t you say so? Forget it, leave the things here. This King will bring my beloved concubine to take a look outside. "


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng threw the chess piece back into the chess box, clapping his hands while holding onto Jun Qingshang, he stood up on his tiptoes and kissed''s lips.


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised in a place that Yun Ruoleng did not see before, and with his other hand, he lifted Yun Ruoleng''s lower jaw, and lowered his head to deepen the kiss.


    That night, Yun Ruoleng got up from the bed and pulled Jun Qingshang up together.


    Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly knitted, as he looked at Yun Ruoleng with doubt: "What happened?"


    "Aren''t you curious all day? "Come, I''ll take you to solve this mystery." After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he crawled up from the bed and put on the clothes beside the bed without wasting any more time with Jun Qingshang.


    Seeing that her movements were extremely quick, as if she was very anxious and excited, Jun Qingshang laughed bitterly: Who hasn''t slept at this hour? "Where are you going to get the evidence?"


    Yun Ruoleng turned his head and gave him a mysterious smile, and his hands did not stop moving: "You''ll know when we get there, get up quickly!"


    Jun Qingshang somewhat helplessly got up from the bed, then put on the night clothes that Yun Ruoleng had prepared for him. The two held hands and secretly left the Regent¡¯s Mansion s together.


    The two of them did not walk too far, and after passing through a street, they directly arrived at the backyard of the Minister¡¯s Mansion. Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang quietly stood on top of the wall of the Jade Bamboo Garden, which just so happened to show the room that the First Madam lived in.


    Jun Qingshang frowned, although this position was good, what was the point in standing here? Yun Ruoleng did not explain his intention and only waved at the air, following that, a figure carried a person out of the room.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows at Jun Qingshang: "Let''s go, the good show is about to begin."


    Jun Qingshang was getting more and more curious about Yun Ruoleng''s'' good show ''. Holding her hand, the two of them chased after her.


    The two of them walked towards the east and stopped in front of a shabby little house. Yun Ruoleng held his hand and walked into the little house, and the two of them hid inside. There was no light in the small house, and under the moonlight, they could see two people sitting in front of the window. When the two saw Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang coming over, they quickly stood up and cupped their hands.


    "Sit down! In a while, you guys have to listen carefully to what''s going on next door. " Yun Ruoleng lifted a hand to support the two, then pulled Jun Qingshang onto a seat himself.


    The two of them looked at each other, looked at the calm Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng who was in control, and then sat down.

 C196

    After being tormented all the way over, First Madam woke up, but when she opened her eyes, she felt that something was wrong with the gloomy and blurry room that was filled with cold energy. She suddenly woke up, and a white light suddenly flashed past her body.


    This person had a disheveled appearance, wore white clothes, and didn''t touch the ground ¡­


    The First Madam was so scared that he continuously retreated, accidentally stepping on something on the ground. His feet slipped and his slightly fat body crashed onto the ground with a "bang": "Don''t come over here!"


    "Hahaha ¡­" The woman''s series of laughter made all the goosebumps on First Madam''s body rise up.


    The terrified First Madam shouted in anger, "You, you, who are you!"


    The lady floated in the air, and unceasingly circled First Madam, and laughed as she circled, her ghost-like voice suddenly making First Madam tense up, the lady suddenly stopped in front of First Madam, and coldly said: "Who am I? I am Yun Qingyao, the big miss of Minister¡¯s Mansion, does mother not know me? "


    "Ghost ¡­" First Madam retreated a few steps, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at the floating female ghost.


    The ghost girl laughed as she got closer to the First Madam, "Was this not designed by mother? If you knew that I would turn into a ghost to find you, you shouldn''t have killed me! "


    First Madam retreated to a corner and had nowhere to retreat to. Both his hands were wrapped into a ball as he muttered, "It''s not me! Not me! I didn''t harm you. "


    "Hahaha, don''t you know that after death, people can read the memories of living people?" The ghost lady swayed in front of First Madam, scaring him into hiding in a corner and shivering. The ghost lady''s words almost made him faint.


    "I ¡­ I''m just doing things for someone else too. Don''t kill me, I''ll tell you who is commanding me. Just don''t kill me."


    The ghost lady leaned forward and sneered: "You mean Lord Lan, right? Don''t worry, I won''t let him off easy, but don''t even think about it! Not only you, Yun Yueyu, you caused my sister''s downfall, I will definitely not let you off! "


    After the female ghost said that, she extended a finger with a long fingernail towards her neck. First Madam hurriedly said: "It''s not like that, I only poisoned you, but I didn''t even want to kill you. I didn''t know that the poison would take a person''s life. "And your sister. It wasn''t us who wanted to chase her away, it was she herself who wanted to leave the Residence of Yun. She even caused my daughter to lose her innocence ¡­"


    "You guys were the ones who designed her, but you still have the face to say it!" The ghost girl was angered by First Madam''s words and laughed.


    First Madam fainted on the ground in shock.


    The door was pushed open, and Yun Ruoleng walked in with a group of people. He nodded to the lady in white: "An Xiang, go and rest!"


    The crowd nodded at the woman in white and left the scene with their feet touching the ground.


    Jun Qingshang glanced at Yun Ruoleng, then looked at the ministers behind him. "All of you are the ministers of the Heaven''s Enlightenment, have everyone heard about what happened today?"


    "But we have no proof!"


    The President of the Board of Justice, who followed along, felt that this conviction was inappropriate and subconsciously opened his mouth to speak.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered: "What''s wrong with that? "She admitted to it herself, and some things don''t necessarily require complete proof."


    Dong Qingyu looked at Jun Qingshang, and after seeing him nod his head expressionlessly, she gave the order to capture him.


    "Wait!" Yun Ruoleng suddenly called out to the guard, "Wake her up first, I still have something to ask her."


    The guards looked at each other and quickly woke First Madam up. When the awakened First Madam saw the people blocking the entrance, his heart immediately became excited. Take me away! There''s a ghost here! "


    "There are no ghosts in this world. If you want to say there''s a ghost, I''m afraid you must have a ghost in your heart!" As Yun Ruoleng walked towards the First Madam, the expression of the originally terrified First Madam changed slightly, as if he had thought of something. He glared at Yun Ruoleng, "Why are you in my room?"


    "You want to catch the thief, which eye of the First Madam sees that this is your room?" Yun Ruoleng slowly squatted down, his eyes meeting First Madam''s gaze. The guards lit the room up with their torches, and it was only then that First Madam noticed that this was not her room, but a small, worn-out room with cobwebs all over.


    The surrounding ashes woke First Madam up from his stupor. "Why am I here?"


    Yun Ruoleng innocently spread out his hands: "I don''t know either."


    "Then why are you here?" The First Madam responded with a sharp tone as she looked at Yun Ruoleng with a much colder gaze than before, "The female ghost just now was also yours, right?"


    "Even if you don''t do anything shameful? Even if you knock on the door?" Yun Ruoleng laughed unhurriedly, "First Madam was so scared that he started to tremble, and sold out his brothers, that''s great."


    "Slut!" Saying that, First Madam wanted to reach out and grab Yun Ruoleng''s impeccably exquisite face. Everyone exclaimed. Jun Qingyao''s reaction speed was extremely fast. A burst of internal force hit her outstretched hand.


    Ah!" The First Madam let out a blood-curdling screech, her other hand covering her arm as she glared hatefully at Yun Ruo Leng. Yun Ruo Leng blinked her eyes, her innocent appearance made the First Madam even more resentful, "Scram! Get lost!


    "I''m afraid you can''t do as you wish!" Yun Ruoleng shrugged his shoulders and smiled sinisterly, "I just want to know how First Madam poisoned my sister''s food."


    "Don''t even think about it!" First Madam turned his head, unwilling to look at her again.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head indifferently: "It''s fine if you don''t say it, since I am not in a hurry to get the answer, since you have admitted it, there will definitely be someone who will tell me the answer, because you are not the mastermind."


    When he thought about how heartless the Lan family was, he did not care about his own arm anymore. He reached out to grab Yun Ruoleng''s clothes, but Yun Ruoleng reacted even faster than him, retreating a few steps in a flash. "Madam, do you still want to break an arm?"


    "No!" Sweat trickled down First Madam''s forehead, and his expression was a little absent-minded: "It''s my main scheme, it has nothing to do with brother and the others!"


    Yun Ruoleng shrugged his shoulders helplessly, this girl was truly pitiful, but it was a pity that this matter was related to the Lan family, so they would not let the tigers return to the mountain. Yun Ruoleng ignored her words and waved to the guards, "Bring her back to the Ministry of Justice''s prison! "It''s a good job. Tomorrow, Lord Shang Shu and Lord Lan will probably go and ask for him."


    Jun Qingshang reached out and wrapped his arm around Yun Ruoleng''s slim waist, looking at her slightly exhausted little face, he painfully kissed her forehead: "It''s getting late, everyone go back to sleep!"


    "We send you on your way, your highness! We offer our best wishes to the wangfei! " Jun Qingshang carried her and left while leaving behind a group of old subjects to discuss things.

 C197

    Yun Ruoleng''s method was quick and effective. Dong Qingyu didn''t like Yun Ruoleng at the start and thought that she was just a flower vase because after this matter, he suddenly felt that this Regent Princess was also someone who was not to be trifled with.


    In addition to the support and love of the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and the Regent, he felt even more strongly that this person was not as simple as he appeared to be.


    The next morning, Yun Shicheng was invited by Dong Qingyu to the Ministry of Justice. Because it involved the assassination of a Holy Mother, as the Father of the Holy Mother, and at the same time as the husband of First Madam Lan Huiru, he had to go to the Ministry of Justice.


    Just that, when Yun Shicheng found out about this, without any hesitation, he threw a letter at First Madam''s face.


    "From now on, your relationship with the Residence of Yun will be cut off!" In order to protect his family, Yun Shicheng had given up First Madam. This action had been approved of by many of the ministers, and adding the vicious heart of the First Madam, it would truly be degrading for her if she did not give up.


    Because Lan Hui Ru was involved in this case, the empress dowager''s entire face turned green. She had just betrothed Minister¡¯s Mansion''s daughter to Huang Teng for her to marry him, and it had only been two or three days, and yet such a thing had already happened.


    Before Huang Teng could react, the empress dowager had already ordered the nanny to check if he was a virgin.


    In the Pavilion of Interpretation, after Yun Yueyu found out that his mother was imprisoned, he panicked. Before she could think of a way, he found out that the empress dowager had sent an experienced nanny to help her investigate Bai Qi. Yun Yueyu was so frightened that he immediately fainted.


    After settling the matters with the First Madam, Yun Ruoleng seemed to have relaxed a lot. When he was free, he would play with Ba Tian in the courtyard, and the smile on his face had increased by a lot. Peach Blossom looked at her daughter with a relaxed expression, and her mood had also improved a lot.


    Cui Ying placed the tea on the stone table. Seeing Yun Ruoleng laughing and teasing Ba Tian, fortune struck him, "Miss, please use some tea!"


    After Yun Ruoleng handed the last piece of food to Batian, he received the handkerchief handed over by Peach Blossom and wiped his hands, then looked at Cui Ying with a slight smile: "Elder sister''s matter has already come to an end. The Duke will take care of the rest of the mess.


    "Yes sir!" Cui Ying answered and then paused for a moment, "What does Miss want to send? This servant will prepare it. "


    "It''s up to you to decide according to your personality." If he were to judge based on his personality, Cui Ying really did not know what to do. After all, those young masters were of different temperaments. The gold, silver, and jewelry they sent would probably be looked down upon by others.


    Cui Ying pondered as he walked.


    Yun Ruoleng held onto her pink hand, pulled her to his side, and sat down: "Recently, I''ve been busy helping big sister investigate the case. I haven''t really taken care of the matters in the residence, is there anything wrong with this residence?"


    Peach Blossom shook her head, glanced around the courtyard, and said: "The residence is the same as usual, and all of it is given to the butler uncle to manage. Furthermore, there are An Ying Guards everywhere in the Regent¡¯s Mansion, so it won''t be dangerous."


    Yun Ruoleng only nodded slightly, he did not take Peach Blossom''s consolation seriously at all.


    Because the case of the Virgin was implicated, a group of humerus ministers had attacked the Lan family. The master of the Lan family naturally wouldn''t admit it. They wanted proof, or they wouldn''t be convinced.


    "Lord Lan, don''t think that I can''t do anything to you without evidence!" Dong Qingyu did not back down either. It seemed like she wanted to fight him to the death.


    The head of the Lan family snorted coldly and ignored him.


    Dong Qingyu cupped her fists towards Jun Rushi, "Your Majesty, this subject believes every word a person says in fear. Because she is terrified and uneasy, she would not think of scheming against others.


    "Lord Dong is framing us!" Deceiving the Emperor for his ignorance! " The head of the Lan family cast a mocking glance at Dong Qingyu.


    Jun Qingshang who had been silent all this while suddenly opened her mouth: "Three months ago, the Lan family brought in a batch of medicine from the Southern Wilderness, and among it is the Evil Claw.


    "There are also people selling evil claws in the capital. Why doesn''t Your Highness suspect that someone else bought them?" The head of the Lan family had no intention of admitting it. He was so stubborn that it made all the old officials exclaim in admiration.


    Jun Qingshang suddenly turned his head and looked at him coldly: "May I ask who in the capital would dare to poison the Holy Mother? Who has a good relationship with Lan Huiru? "


    "Your Highness''s words are wrong!" He thought that with this, Jun Qingshang would have no way of dealing with him. However, he did not know that Jun Qingshang had already thought of a solution.


    "Bring him up!" With that, a group of imperial guards led a young servant into the hall. Everyone looked at the young servant in surprise before turning to the head of the Lan family.


    Jun Qingshang pointed to the servant on the ground and sneered: "The account in your account book is not logarithmic. This king has searched for a long time, but still has not been able to find where the evil claws that were brought back from the Southern Wilderness have gone to, while the evil claws in the other shops all have places to go."


    "It seems like little sister is not in a good condition. Did you bring her here to recuperate? Is this also wrong?" The head of the Lan family snorted coldly.


    "Speak!" Jun Qingshang directly ignored his words, his gaze falling upon the body of the trembling servant kneeling in the great hall. "Tell me the truth and this king will spare your life."


    "Yes, yes, yes!" "This little one is the little boy that was by the Patriarch''s side. Because he looks unremarkable, he often delivers things to others, and the Patriarch had this little one deliver things to little miss for seven days straight. Seven days later, the Patriarch did not allow this little one to send any more, and the news of the Holy Mother dying a few days later spread out."


    "The Evil Claw is a chronic medicine. If an ordinary person takes it and the witch uses it, they will die. Does Lord Lan think that this is some sort of coincidence?" Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, and a pair of beautiful eyes s shot out a cold light.


    The head of the Lan family was frightened as well. He calmed himself down with some difficulty and said, "I can''t accept the words of a young servant!"


    "Whether or not you accept it is within your heart." Jun Qingshang waved his hand, and ordered without a trace of warmth: "Capture!"


    The imperial guards had been waiting at the door for a long time. As soon as they received the order to enter, they brought the head of the Lan family with them and left.


    The little Emperor didn''t say anything. Seeing that the master of the Lan family had been taken away, he said with a stern face, "Lord Lan has assassinated the Holy Mother. Considering the fact that the Lan family is a hundred years old family, I have decided not to implicate the Nine Clans. But from now on, the Lan family is not to be official!"


    From now on, the Lan family was not allowed to be officials!


    Compared to exterminating the family clan, being an official was no different from cutting off the future of the Lan clan.


    The Lan family, which had been thriving and flourishing all along, had been disgraced by the poisoning of the Holy Mother. The Lan family had been thrown some rotten eggs and rotten vegetables outside their house, making them live in an uneasy environment.

 C198

    Yun Ruoleng listened to these gossips in astonishment, and ate the grapes while listening, and was in an unspeakably good mood.


    After dealing with this matter, there was still an even bigger matter that needed to be dealt with. Yun Ruoleng set up a feast in his Regent¡¯s Mansion, inviting all talented girls all over the capital to attend.


    Jun Qingshang and Huang Teng were also there. Yun Ruoleng''s plan was to let Huang Teng choose a girl that possessed both talent and talent, and Huang Teng was not polite either, choosing the daughter of the Minister of Rites from the group of young mistresses.


    Her beauty was outstanding. Although she was not the direct daughter, she possessed a different kind of intelligence and talent from others.


    When Yun Ruoleng first saw her, he knew that this person was definitely not simple.


    After Yun Ruoleng sent away the girl from an aristocratic family, he specially left this woman with him.


    "May I have your name, Miss?" Yun Ruoleng poured a cup of water for her, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, looking like he was in a good mood.


    "Yin Yuehua." Yin Yuehua smiled with a calm face. This made Yun Ruoleng recall a sentence: Even the daughter of a rich family is having a hard time.


    Yun Ruoleng affectionately pulled her hand and said: "You and I are both daughters of Minister¡¯s Mansion. Today, you are chosen by the crown prince, although you cannot be the principal consort, you are at least a secondary consort. Are you willing?"


    "I no longer have anything to worry about. It''s the same no matter where I marry him." Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s stiff face and knowing that she had said the wrong thing, she hurriedly explained, "I have lost my mother when I was young, and sent her to First Madam. Although she has been very good to me, she does not have my mother''s care.


    "Since that''s the case, I will go and request for an imperial decree tomorrow." Yun Ruoleng looked at Peach Blossom, who handed over a box to Yun Ruoleng, who opened it, and saw that it was filled with headdress pieces.


    Yin Yuehua''s eyes flashed, as she looked at Yun Ruoleng with suspicion.


    "Take it. You''ll be rewarded if you go over there." Yin Yuehua did not stand on ceremony. After she packed the box properly, Yun Ruoleng personally sent her to the door.


    After selecting the good people, Yun Ruoleng asked Jun Qingshang to personally invite them. An imperial decree and an imperial decree, Jun Qingshang nodded helplessly and helped Yun Ruoleng settle the matter. Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief, the two of them had a deep affection for each other.


    "Miss, something terrible has happened!" An Xiang quickly rushed into the room. Yun Ruoleng quickly pushed the people on his body away, and with his back facing the door, he tidied his clothes. Jun Qingshang glared at him in displeasure, but An Xiang did not even look at him, and continued to speak: "Yun Yueyu has barged in!"


    "How dare you!" Jun Qingshang stood up and tidied his clothes, then walked out in anger. After tidying his clothes, Yun Ruoleng quickly chased after him.


    This time, Yun Yueyu came in aggressively with a sword in his right hand, and rushed in with a cold expression.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrow, this woman had actually used her power. Seeing her enemy, Yun Yueyu brandished the sword in his hand, and used all his strength to stab at her.


    With a wave of Jun Qingshang''s sleeve, a wave of majestic power struck towards Yun Yueyu, straight towards Yun Yueyu''s chest, and he was thrown out like a rag doll.


    "Aiya," Yun Ruoleng cried out in alarm, "Quickly go and check if he''s dead or not!"


    "If she wants to kill you, why would you care about her life?" Jun Qingshang frowned slightly.


    Yun Ruoleng shrugged his shoulders, "Your Highness, I am not doing this out of good will. If she were to die, I would be convicted of murdering my own sister."


    "You." Jun Qingshang doted on her nose a little, and with a surge of his heart, he wrapped his arms around Yun Ruoleng''s slender waist and crouched down slightly, then forcefully lifted Yun Ruoleng up.


    He did not need to care about the rest of the matters because he needed to be warm with his wife.


    Yun Ruoleng pushed Jun Qingshang: "My prince, you will be scolded if you continue to commit adultery today."


    "This King is afraid of those rumors?" Jun Qingshang s tyrannical aura leaked out, Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes. He realized that he was not safe, but it was already too late.


    After Yun Yueyu ran to the Regent¡¯s Mansion to cause trouble and was sent back to the Yun Palace, he fell sick, so Yun Shicheng didn''t want to look at her again. Yun Yueyu directly fell from the sky into hell. His mental body was in a bad state, to the point that his injuries couldn''t heal even after a long time.


    "Miss, please eat something." Yun Yueyu continued to ignore her. In just two or three days, her originally rosy cheeks had turned pale white, and her watery almond eyes had turned dark. She was kneeling on the ground, hugging the porridge and crying quietly.


    "Miss, please eat some. The eldest young master will be back tomorrow. If the eldest young master sees you like this, he will definitely be angry and say that this servant did not take good care of you." Rui Ling cried as she spoke, and Yun Yueyu, who was lying on the bed, finally had a reaction.


    "Miss!" Rui Ling was so excited that the bowl in her hands almost fell over.


    Yun Yueyu''s pale lips slightly rose: "I want to eat."


    Rui Ling nodded with tears in her eyes. She helped her up and leaned against the pillow. Then, she started to feed her food bit by bit.


    After eating a little, Yun Yueyu regained his spirit, but the reason for his illness did not last for long before he fell asleep again.


    Rui Ling covered Yun Yueyu with a blanket and carefully left the room.


    As soon as Rui Ling walked out of the room, she was met with a basin of cold water. The autumn weather had turned cold, and a basin of cold water coupled with the heavy autumn wind caused Rui Ling to shiver.


    "You people ¡­"


    "Miss went to sleep, don''t wake her up screaming." The maid who had spilled the water laughed contemptuously and left with the basin. The crowd of onlookers could only smile at Rui Ling as they turned to leave. Leaving only Rui Ling standing where she was, she might not be able to just stand there and not leave.


    Yun Ruoleng had nothing better to do at home. Now that the Crown Prince of Yue Ling had brought the beautiful girl back, and the case with Yun Qingyao was settled, Yun Ruoleng didn''t know what to do even if he had nothing better to do.


    Yun Ruoleng who was about to get married for a month and a half suddenly remembered that a new couple of the 21st century was going out on their honeymoon.


    "Peach Blossom, help me prepare some things. I want to go to our two people''s world with His Royal Highness!" Yun Ruoleng placed the book on the table, then ran into the bedroom.


    Peach Blossom looked at Cui Ying in confusion. Cui Ying shrugged: "If Miss wants you to go, then go. Don''t just stand there."


    The moment she entered the door, she saw Yun Ruoleng rummaging through the cabinets. Her pose was extremely dangerous, but Peach Red was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat, "Miss, let''s talk after the king returns. Even if you want to go out, you don''t need to be in such a hurry!"


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at her in annoyance. If he wasn''t prepared, would Jun Qingshang be able to obediently go out on his honeymoon with him?


    He valued the Heavenly Awakening in his heart. Although he himself was also important, it still couldn''t compare to the Heavenly Awakening!

 C199

    Yun Ruoleng looked at the shadow that he could only see at night and couldn''t help but frown. Even if it was Xiu Mu, he wouldn''t stay at home to accompany him for an entire day.


    Yun Ruoleng did not realize how worried she was about her gains and losses, and no one knew what she was thinking at that moment.


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was unhappy, Peach Blossom quickly shut her mouth and helped Yun Ruoleng to pack up.


    When Jun Qingshang returned, he saw the two bags in the room and his expression darkened slightly: "Are you going out?"


    The more Jun Qingshang looked at her, the more he felt that something was not right. He extended his hand to pinch her chin and raised her head: "Who made us Ruo Er angry?"


    "I''m fine!" Yun Ruoleng turned his head, just in time to see two bags, the corners of his mouth raised, "In a few days you will have to rest, why not go out with me for a walk, it''s your honeymoon, right?"


    Jun Qingshang chuckled. "Xiu Mu only has that much time in one day, how far can he go? By the way, what is honeymoon? "


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng tilted his head and thought for a moment, "It''s about the newlyweds going out to the world of two people together."


    "That''s good." Jun Qingshang nodded his head in satisfaction, his big palm resting on her fluffy head, "You are going to the ends of the world, this king will accompany you, but you are not allowed to leave the capital for a short period of time, after all, Huang Teng has not left the Heaven''s Initiation."


    "The capital is one month away from the Yue Ling. If something were to happen on the road, you won''t be able to make it in time! Why don''t we follow them! " Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, showing her excitement.


    Jun Qingshang helplessly shook his head: "That''s true, then I''ll send someone to follow him tomorrow, so I don''t need to go, my honeymoon will naturally be easy, if I go, wouldn''t I be protecting him?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head in satisfaction. Not even two days after Huang Teng left the capital, he sent another group of people to follow him, which reduced the enemy''s concentration.


    Whatever Jun Qingshang said would be agreed to, and he would never go back on his words. Therefore, Yun Ruoleng''s request was quickly made, but unfortunately, he was stopped by the little emperor.


    "We can send the men, but you can''t leave royal uncle." Jun Rushi pulled on Jun Qingshang''s sleeves in a childish manner: "If you leave, who will help us look at so many memorials?"


    "An Ying will look, I will keep him." Jun Qingshang wanted to shake off Jun Rushi''s devil claws, but did not expect Jun Rushi to pull on his sleeves and hang him up entirely.


    "No, no!" Jun Rushi was really afraid of Jun Rushi when he acted helplessly, but it was obvious that he would win, it was just that he was an extremely noble person, so he did not dare to make a move, and would ignore them ¡­ What was this lousy child doing, hugging his arm?


    Actually, it wasn''t that Jun Rushi didn''t want to let him go, it was just that he wanted to steal some time for himself.


    Jun Qingshang felt a headache coming on, and a cold intent surfaced in her eyes: "Records, this king can see for you."


    "Alright!" Jun Rushi immediately put it away, and after getting what he wanted, his face quickly changed, "royal uncle can bring Aunt Huang to play, and enjoy herself to the fullest. Maybe when we return, we will have a little cousin. As for the imperial reports, I''ll have my people pass them to you directly. "


    Jun Qingshang gave a cold snort, "When this king returns, to see the Emperor''s internal energy increase by three whole levels, you can only feel that it cannot be higher than that. "If you have no troubles with memorials, you can train your martial arts more."


    Jun Qingshang would not let him off so easily, Jun Rushi''s little face immediately darkened. Just now, he had been wondering why royal uncle had agreed so quickly, so it was because he was waiting for him here.


    Jun Rushi looked at Jun Qingshang, on the verge of tears, "How long will it take for royal uncle to return?"


    "The emperor has two months before his birthday. This King naturally has to return before then to accompany you on your birthday." Jun Qingshang smiled faintly. "Your Majesty doesn''t want this king to come back?"


    "Hur hur, no." Jun Rushi had a bitter feeling in his heart, wouldn''t it take a whole day and night of practice to increase his Inner Qi by three levels? At this moment, Jun Rushi regretted his decision. If he had known earlier, he would not have allowed the old cunning fox to rewrite the imperial report.


    Jun Qingshang''s expression was calm, but his eyes shone brightly.


    Jun Rushi had talent in politics, and what was more important now was his martial arts. This kind of exchange was quite appropriate.


    After Jun Qingshang left, Jun Rushi regretted his decision beyond compare, and had even decided that he must cause a ruckus before Jun Qingshang left. But on the next day, Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang left, and did not give Jun Rushi the chance to cause trouble.


    In the carriage, Jun Qingshang held onto her beautiful wife with one hand holding onto a book, the two of them discussing from time to time.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned into his embrace and closed her eyes to rest, while listening to his low and hoarse voice.


    "In front of us is an ancient town. At this time of the year, there are hundreds of fragrant osmanthus flowers. Do you want to go and take a look?" Jun Qingshang closed the book in his hands and lowered his head to look at the person who was about to fall asleep.


    Yun Ruoleng half opened his eyes: "You decide, I don''t care."


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, then pulled her into his embrace and said to the driver: "We stopped when we were passing by the ancient town."


    "Yes sir!" The person outside replied.


    Although it was called an ancient town, the truth was that this town only had its own unique charm. It was old and unadorned, so it was called an ancient town.


    It was already ten in the evening by the time the carriage arrived at the ancient town, and this was the perfect time to sleep. An Ying, who had just arrived, took care of everything for Jun Qingshang, and watched him carry the sleeping Yun Ruoleng into the tavern.


    Jun Qingshang carried her into the tavern and Yun Ruoleng woke up. A faint fragrance of osmanthus blossomed in his nose, and he felt much more spirited.


    Only, she did not get up, and instead waited for Jun Qingshang to carry her into the room before slowly opening her eyes. A pair of phoenix eyes that had just woken up stared at Jun Qingshang.


    "Ruo Er..."


    "Are we there yet?" Yun Ruoleng ignored his jade like expression and sat up, tidying up her messy clothes.


    Jun Qingshang lowered his head, pressed a kiss to her forehead and nodded: "My luck is not bad, tonight''s small town will celebrate.


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up as he looked at Qing Xin in anticipation.


    Jun Qingshang lovingly rubbed her fluffy head and quickly called the waiter over to get him to prepare some hot water.


    Yun Ruoleng''s obedient look made Jun Qingshang''s heart itch a little. He wanted to warm up with her, but Yun Ruoleng had already sensed that something was wrong.


    "It''s quite lively downstairs. Let''s go take a look!" Yun Ruoleng leaned against the window and looked out, his eyes shining with anticipation.


    Jun Qingshang took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and walked to the window. He hugged Yun Ruoleng with one hand and lifted her chin with the other.


    "En!" Yun Ruoleng smiled at him, a cunning look in his eyes.

 C200

    Yun Ruoleng started to like it here more and more. After showering, she pulled Jun Qingshang''s hand and ran out, "Qing Sun, you have to accompany me to take a look."


    "Alright." Jun Qingshang''s expression was filled with doting.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed especially heartily upon hearing this.


    Maybe because he had been locked up in the capital for a long time, Yun Ruoleng, who was usually calm and collected, was now like a little girl, jumping and jumping on the streets unrestrainedly.


    Jun Qingshang followed along behind with a smile on his face. It was rare for Yun Ruoleng to be so happy, he was naturally willing to indulge in such good times.


    Merely in the time it took to buy a candied fruit, Yun Ruoleng had already left his sight.


    Jun Qingshang''s eyes sunk, his sharp hawk-like eyes swept across the crowd once, but he did not see Yun Ruoleng''s shadow. Frowning, he gestured towards the air.


    At this moment, Yun Ruoleng was standing in front of a candy seller, watching as he continuously brandished the spoon, and not long later, a cute little white rabbit appeared on the candy bar, looking cute and tasty, causing Yun Ruoleng to lick his lips.


    "Would Miss like one?" The hawker could not help but ask when he saw Yun Ruoleng staring intently.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked her eyes, a trace of awkwardness flashed across her beautiful phoenix eyes. She didn''t have any money with her, she only had silver notes, she couldn''t possibly give them to him, right?


    Yun Ruoleng stood up straight, hands behind his back, he continued to walk forward, after leaving the stall, he quickly found new things, it was a small stall that people painted on, although it was a small stall, but there was a sea of people.


    Yun Ruoleng curiously stuck her head out to look at the scene inside, it had to be said that the painter''s drawing skills were not bad, but Yun Ruoleng did not look too favorably on his painting, and felt bored. She retreated to continue looking for fun, and suddenly realised that she seemed to be separated from Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Ruoleng subconsciously frowned, he turned and walked back, but was pulled back. He turned his head and saw a fat man with a greasy face, with his lips pursed towards her face, his eyebrows knitted, and his other hand formed a fist that smashed onto his face unrestrainedly.


    Ah!" Fatty covered his face and wailed, "Murdered my husband! "Murdered my husband!


    Yun Ruoleng folded his arms, and looked at him as if he was watching a joke: "Hey! Just like you, would I fall for you? "


    The man sat on the ground, and pointed at Yun Ruoleng with one hand while covering his swollen face with the other: "Slut, this young master has raised you for so long, yet you actually dared to attack this young master, and even didn''t acknowledge you as this young master''s woman. "Ahhh!"


    Before Yun Ruoleng could make a move, the fatty released a wail, and the surrounding crowd grew larger in number. Yun Ruoleng stared at the people behind him and smiled: "An Yue, I do not wish to see him."


    "Yes sir!"


    She knew better than anyone who had moved just now, Yun Ruoleng had his arms crossed in front of his chest, staring at this social scum, his eyes flashed with a cold light.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng finished giving his orders, an old man stood out and stopped An Yue: "Although this young master has an advantage in words, he did not get anything at all. My lady has a lot of things, why do you care so much about this lowly person?"


    "My wife comes from a large family in the capital. Since he has spoken so vilifyingly, do you think you should punish him?" An Yue was one of the top figures in An Ying''s Guard, he was the person in charge of managing the entire An Ying Security Sect. In this kind of situation, he would naturally defend his master.


    The way the commoners looked at Yun Ruoleng changed, from the start to the end, they became respectful and fearful.


    The old man glanced at the fatty whose mouth had become swollen. He opened his mouth, but in the end, he still sighed and moved aside. Before he left, he gave Yun Ruoleng a deep look.


    Yun Ruoleng could see from his expression that he was helpless and unresigned, as if he wanted to say something, but he hesitated. It was as if he wanted to say that this fatty had some background.


    Curling his lips, Yun Ruoleng looked around, then looked at his own An Yue: "Where''s your grandpa?"


    An Yue''s gaze passed through her shoulder and looked towards a certain direction. Yun Ruoleng turned his head to follow his gaze, only to see a man dressed in black robes. His entire body was wrapped in anger, but he was still unable to hide the Ruler''s Qi around his body.


    "Master!" An Yue cupped his hands in greeting, Jun Qingshang acknowledged, then squatted down to pick up the fatty who was lying on the ground, and carried him through the crowd like a rag.


    The people of the small town were simple and unsophisticated. Seeing this strong warrior carrying a person as he walked, they all sighed in amazement.


    Yun Ruoleng turned and smiled to everyone: "Everyone disperse!"


    The people looked at each other, and finally dispersed.


    Jun Qingshang looked at the woman who tried to curry favor with him, and the beautiful eyes narrowed her eyes: "Do you know your wrongs?"


    "It''s just a rogue hoodlum, don''t take it to heart." Yun Ruoleng tried to scuttle to Jun Qingshang''s side in consolation, but he was stopped.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face stiffened as he looked up at him in puzzlement. Jun Qingshang was still unhappy, but Yun Ruoleng finally understood that the young master''s temper was back, and he was afraid that he could not be coaxed this time.


    Yun Ruoleng''s watery phoenix eyes darted around a few times before raising her head to look at Jun Qingshang, "Qingxin, I was wrong. In the future, I won''t dare to run around by myself anymore. "Wu, wu, wu."


    The speed of this painting was simply too fast.


    The group of secret guards following Jun Qingshang had long gotten used to this scene and turned their faces away from the two.


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth twitched uncontrollably. Seeing Yun Ruoleng crying sorrowfully, he couldn''t help but pull her into his embrace and sigh softly.


    Yun Ruoleng was all smiles. Sure enough, men always try their best.


    Helplessly shaking his head, Jun Qingshang lowered his head to look at the "crying" exhausted person, and softly said: "Go back."


    Hearing that, Yun Ruoleng was immediately enraged, he immediately wriggled in Jun Qingshang''s embrace and shouted: "I haven''t played enough yet! If you want to go back, then go back first! "


    Jun Qingshang''s handsome face slightly darkened, and his large finger swept across her back. His magnetic voice sounded again: "Ruo Er, you''re not obedient, hm?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body tensed up, he was just making a ruckus, but in the next second, he was as obedient as a cat, crawling into Jun Qingshang''s embrace. Only then did Jun Qingshang hold onto her and walked towards the tavern.


    An Yue threw the fatty into an alley and looked at him condescendingly. "You dare to provoke anyone''s woman?


    "Wuwuwu ¡­"


    "Ha!" You want to say that you are from the Four Great Families, right? " An Yue expressed his disdain, "The Lan family is the leader of the Four Great Clans, and we are not afraid of him. You are just a member of the last clan, what is there to be afraid of?"

 C201

    The fat mouse opened his eyes wide, and looked at An Yue with an astonished expression.


    He didn''t say who he was, so how did this person know?


    An Yue looked at the thing on his waist, then looked at him as if he was an idiot: "Not only do you look like a pig, you even look like a pig!"


    An Yue stepped on his stomach, he stared at him ferociously, the sword in his hand was slowly being pulled out from the sword sheath, the fat man was so scared that his entire body was trembling, and he kept on releasing wuwu sounds.


    "Young Hero, please spare me while I''m at it!"


    On the other side of the alley stood an old man. An Yue coldly glanced at the old man, and seeing that this person happened to be the person who had stopped them, he coldly laughed. "You want to save him?"


    "My young master offended esteemed madam, so this one will give you a generous gift to comfort you ¡­"


    "Do you think you can get rid of my master with just a little money?" An Yue sneered, he felt that this old man was truly annoying, he immediately unsheathed the sword in his hand and slashed at the fatty''s finger without hesitation.


    Suddenly, a stone hit the sword, causing the sword to fall to the side. It stabbed into the ground and let out a hissing sound. An Yue raised his head and looked at the old man. The old man stroked his white beard and laughed: "Young Hero, please stop!"


    What else could An Yue say?


    This person''s skills were above his, if he were to face him head on, even if couldn''t win against the good guy, he would be stolen away. An Yue simply kicked the fatty''s body, pushing him towards the old man.


    The first thing An Yue did when he returned to the tavern was to go and beg for forgiveness. When Yun Ruoleng heard about what had happened, he did not scold him, but instead smiled exceptionally happily.


    An Yue was flabbergasted by her laugh. "What is the wangfei laughing about?"


    "Laughing at that old man." Yun Ruoleng propped up her chin, her watery phoenix eyes held onto a bit of stratagem, "I hid some power in Fatty''s body, so it''s so painful that he can''t even sleep at the end of the night. Hence, even if we go back, we will not be able to treat it. "


    An Yue felt a chill all over his body. Wasn''t this woman a little too poisonous?


    An Yue secretly decided that it would be good to offend anyone, by all means, do not offend this woman, otherwise he would not even know how he died.


    I have to say that An Yue''s choice is a wise one, if you offend Yun Ruoleng, you will die a miserable death. Let''s not talk about whether the Regent and Emperor will kill him, even if they won''t, this woman will make your life worse than death.


    Yun Ruoleng still did not know that his words had produced a shadow in An Yue''s heart. After he finished speaking, he let An Yue go out first and sat at the table to drink a cup of tea for him.


    The door opened at this moment, and Yun Ruoleng didn''t even need to look to know who it was.


    "What did Ruo Er and An Yue say just now? Seeing his panicked expression, could it be that you have been fooling around with him again? " Jun Qingshang said as he took a sip of the tea Yun Ruoleng had poured for him.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head then shook it, "I did this on purpose to scare him, but this was also the case. I had placed some energy on that fatty''s body to make him beg for death."


    "Little girl, you ¡­" Jun Qingshang lovingly rubbed her head. Towards a man who wanted to flirt with his woman, he naturally wouldn''t be merciful. However, it was too easy for him to do it in one slash.


    "Are you angry?" Yun Ruoleng saw that he did not say a word, and immediately asked.


    Jun Qingshang slightly shook his head: "You don''t have to be so polite in the future when encountering this kind of thing."


    "Understood!" Yun Ruoleng laughed at Yun Ruoleng''s serious look.


    After a whole day''s journey, both of them were tired and fell asleep as soon as they touched the bed.


    The next morning, Yun Ruoleng was woken up by the rustling sound coming from beside his bed. He opened his eyes hazily and looked at the person in front of him: "Where are you going?"


    "Ten Li Gui Hua Forest." After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, he picked up the clothes at the side and put them on Yun Ruoleng''s body, "There''s a large patch of osmanthus flowers over there. If you like the osmanthus flowers, we''ll go take a look."


    Hearing this, Yun Ruoleng became excited, his originally drowsy state was gone, and he kept on getting up and putting on his clothes.


    In the twenty-first century, there was the term "Ten Li Peach Blossom", but to think that there would still be ten Li of osmanthus flowers in this place was quite exciting.


    Yun Ruoleng very quickly finished tidying himself up, and this time, he did not bring a servant along. After tying up a simple bun, Jun Qingshang put on a cape for her: "Let''s go!"


    The Gui Hua Town was actually not just a small town, it was also connected to the capital and Yin City, and these 10 Li of Gui Hua City was the only road leading the capital to Yin City. At the beginning, Yun Ruoleng didn''t know it, thinking that Jun Qingshang was bringing her out to play.


    "Aren''t we coming back?" Yun Ruoleng curiously watched An Yue carry the bag onto the carriage.


    "Today, going to Yin City, there are many things you might not have seen made from osmanthus flowers." Jun Qingshang carried her and helped her onto the carriage, Yun Ruoleng nodded as though he understood something, and obediently entered the carriage.


    Jun Qingshang followed behind, but his expression was not very good.


    Yun Ruoleng did not ask any further, and watched as he took out a stack of reports from his bag and placed it on the small side of the horse carriage.


    The two of them sat opposite each other. Yun Ruoleng had used the concept of the twenty-first century to help him solve many small problems, and Jun Qingshang had long gotten used to it. He started to like Yun Ruoleng more and more.


    After Yun Ruoleng helped Jun Qingshang pack his things, the two walked out of the carriage hand in hand. Looking at the golden osmanthus forest, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but to take a deep breath of the fragrance, he felt as if all the pores on his body had opened, and a faint amount of spirit energy entered into his spirit altar.


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Jun Qingshang in shock, the corners of his mouth slightly twitched.


    "You''ve advanced?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, her levelling speed was indeed rather fast, last time she asked Black Robe if it would affect her, causing her to feel pressured. Thinking about it, because she had been suppressing herself for a long time, her leveling speed had increased even faster, now that she had reached Foundation Establishment level 2, although it was not as fast as Black Robe, but to be able to level up two levels in a month, made her worry.


    Jun Qingshang rubbed her little head: "Some people have different talents, so naturally the speed of progress will be different. Don''t worry, I will be fine."


    I hope everything is fine ¡­ Yun Ruoleng sighed lightly, his expression still had some unease.


    In order to comfort his wife, Jun Qingshang took her and walked deeper into Gui Lin. As they walked, he said, "The outer layer of spirit energy is allowing you to level up.


    Yun Ruoleng''s attention was diverted away, Jun Qingshang''s words were like a treasure hunt, Yun Ruoleng''s curiosity was not piqued, the two walked into the forest hand in hand.

 C202

    It was a common occurrence in novels, where experts were hidden in the forest. Yun Ruoleng curiously looked at the Gui Lin, wondering if he could find some other experts.


    The spirit energy in the central area of the forest was indeed richer, but compared to the purity level of the spirit energy in the swastika courtyard, it was far, far worse. Yun Ruoleng shook his head at Jun Qingshang: "There are too many impurities in the spirit energy, let''s go back first!"


    Jun Qingshang saw that she was in a much better mood, so he nodded and walked towards the carriage.


    Although Gui Lin was huge, with no experts, and not even two commoners, Yun Ruoleng felt bored and walked back to the horse carriage together with Jun Qingshang.


    After returning to the carriage, Jun Qingshang told An Yue to set off. Their goal today was not the Ten Li Osmanthus Flower Forest, but rather the nearby Yin City.


    It was only after they passed through the forest that Yun Ruoleng realized just how good the position of the city was. After entering the city, he heard the bustling sounds, and through the carriage curtains, he could see the simple atmosphere of the people in the city. Yun Ruoleng''s brows unconsciously relaxed.


    "There is one of the weakest of the Four Great Families, the Yin Family. Although the Yin Family is a member of the Four Great Families, but no one has entered the dynasty. Even the descendants of the Yin Family are mainly in business." Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s curious look, Jun Qingshang could not help but say: "That''s why Yin City has always had a very good economy. Even though it does not have to be the bustling of Scenic City, it is still the city with the largest income every year."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, the word "Yin" in Yin Cheng was probably a name the citizens had come up with to thank the Yin Family! Yun Ruoleng looked at the signboard with the word "Yin" on it all around and understood everything.


    Yun Ruoleng curiously pulled open the corner of the carriage curtain, and saw many people walking on the street. Most of their clothes were made from the green cloth used by the servants in the Duke Palaces, some of them were even weaker than these, but they were still much better than the other materials. No wonder Jun Qingshang said that every family in the Yin City had a high income.


    "Qinghu, since the economy here is so good, why don''t the people from other places fight for it?" It was the twenty-first century, so where was he going to find money?


    "Because the people here are all exclusive." Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, and placed a gentle kiss on her cheek. "In the past, there were also people who wanted to enter the city and occupy the market here. In the end, they were coaxed out by the people inside."


    Yun Ruoleng was able to understand this kind of behavior, and even wanted to give a Like for this behavior.


    Jun Qingshang could not help but chuckle when he saw Yun Ruoleng''s energetic look. "You think it''s interesting, don''t you?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, smiling as he went into his embrace, Jun Qingshang patted her back and did not continue speaking.


    The carriage stopped in front of the entrance of a luxurious mansion, and rustling sounds came from outside the door. Yun Ruoleng raised his head and looked through Jun Qingshang''s shoulder, and could see the vague scene outside the window.


    Jun Qingshang pulled the sugar-like Yun Ruoleng off of his body with his large hand. "If you want to see me get off the car, look good. It''s very dangerous for you to be like this."


    Yun Ruoleng curled his lips, walked out from Jun Qingshang''s body, and opened the carriage curtain as he walked out. As he walked, he sized up his surroundings, this was an ancient looking backyard, the decorations on the walls must have been around for a while already, but everything here was priceless, so this family''s master was not afraid of being noticed by the thieves.


    Jun Qingshang helplessly followed Yun Ruoleng down the carriage, and the butler who was talking to An Yue quickly came up and greeted him with clasped hands: "Young Master has been well since we last met! How have you been! "


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang just nodded indifferently.


    After the butler saw Jun Qingshang like that, his gaze quickly landed on Yun Ruoleng who was in his embrace: "This lady is..."


    "My wife." Jun Qingshang tightened the grip around Yun Ruoleng''s waist, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrows at him, and in the next moment, her expression changed, because the moment the butler heard who she was, his gaze instantly changed.


    "Please come in!"


    With regards to the steward who had suddenly changed his attitude, Jun Qingshang did not even care about her at all. With one hand, he lifted her hair that had the scent of light osmanthus and whispered into her ear, "This place is the Yin family."


    Yin Family? No wonder it was so extravagant. Any item placed at the entrance could sell for several hundred taels of silver. It was likely that this family would not care about this small amount of money.


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng accept it very naturally, the corners of Jun Qingshang''s mouth slightly raised.


    As expected of his woman, she was different from everyone else.


    Yun Ruoleng''s mood seemed to be not bad as they were led down the main hall by the butler. Inside, a middle-aged couple dressed in extravagant clothes and a young man in white sat down, and the moment Jun Qingshang stepped through the doorstep, the people inside hurriedly and enthusiastically welcomed him: "Young Master came at a time when you weren''t welcoming, you weren''t welcoming at a time when you weren''t welcoming."


    "Master Yin is too polite." Jun Qingshang nodded at him indifferently, the few of them seemed to have already gotten used to his attitude.


    As the ruler of the Yin family, Yin Mingqiu was able to see through the relationship between Jun Qingshang and the two of them with a single glance, but he didn''t have much of a reaction. After conversing happily with Jun Qingshang for a while, he hurriedly said: "The two of you have worked hard on this journey, please follow me to Pear Garden to rest."


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze only swept across the furnishings once, and realized that this family was truly rich, the furnishings in the room were all old antiques, any one of them could be sold for a good price.


    Jun Qingshang carried Yun Ruoleng and followed Yin Mingqiu towards the so-called Pear Garden. The Pear Garden was located in the north-east side of the hall, and after going around the long corridor and passing through an artificial lake, they would arrive. The huge wooden signboard at the entrance was made from the best quality Pear Blossom Tree.


    Sculpting doors were also made from Pear Blossom Wood, which was not common. Not to mention the older Pear Blossom Wood, Yun Ruoleng had a feeling that Grandma Liu had entered a large garden and was completely flabbergasted when he saw these things.


    Yin Mingqiu pushed open the sculpted wooden door, and snow white pear blossoms entered his sight. Yun Ruoleng exclaimed in shock, as he raised his small head to look at Jun Qingshang in puzzlement.


    Jun Qingshang rubbed his big hands on Yun Ruoleng''s fluffy head, "The air around the underground spring water is used here, it''s as warm as spring, so naturally the Pear Blossom always blooms."


    Yun Ruoleng blinked her eyes, nodding her head as if she understood something. She suddenly felt that for a moment, she was like an idiot. It was rare for Jun Qingshang to reveal such an adorable expression, and he couldn''t help but to press a kiss onto her lips.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes widened, and reached out to push him on his chest. Jun Qingshang did not deepen the kiss, but merely touched the water surface and brought her along with him.

 C203

    Just as Jun Qingshang had said, the temperature here was indeed warmer than it was outside. Yun Ruoleng''s gaze was attracted to the river surface that was emitting white mist, and she could feel that the heat source was coming from underground.


    "The two of you should rest first. There will be a welcoming banquet later. I will come again to invite the two esteemed guests." Yin Mingqiu chuckled as he stroked his goatee, cupped his hands, and backed out.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze followed him as he left, and only then did he pour out his stomach full of curiosity. "Qing Sun, this place is so luxurious, why is it that Yin City pays so little tax every year? "Also, aren''t you afraid of your family raiding if the Yin family is so ostentatious?"


    Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng and went inside, explaining as he walked: "The Yin Family doesn''t care about this at all, as long as they are able to pay the tax, we don''t have the authority to ask them about it."


    "So the Yin family is as rich as a kingdom, right?" Yun Ruoleng felt that this was too unfair, asking for taxes from the poor citizens, but these tycoons only gave him a small amount, this was too unfair.


    "Idiot." Seeing her indignant look, Jun Qingshang could not help but pinch her little face, "What can wealth possibly do? Each time, the new Patriarch would have to hand over forty percent of the family''s wealth, and change it every twenty years. This is the rule set by the first Patriarch. "


    "So that''s how it is." Yun Ruoleng told them why the old cunning fox Jun Qingshang did not do anything to the weasel, who was as rich as a country.


    After entering the room, Yun Ruoleng felt that the temperature inside was even higher than outside, so he could not help but take off his outer robe.


    Jun Qingshang also took off his robes and sat on the soft ground with Yun Ruoleng.


    "Oh right, why are there only two people from such a large Yin family who came to pick us up?" Yun Ruoleng used his consciousness to feel around the entire Yin Palace. Although it was not as grand and magnificent as the palace, the amount of land occupied by the palace was not much different from the palace.


    "Because the Yin family only has one son, and the rest are all daughters." After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, Yun Ruoleng nodded in realization as he looked around at Jun Qingshang with a strange gaze.


    Jun Qingshang was horrified by her gaze, he could not help but crease his eyebrows. "Do I look good?"


    "Good!" Yun Ruoleng quickly took a step back and faintly smiled at Jun Qingshang, "No wonder that butler dislikes me so much. So it was his young lady who was anxious to marry and was rushing to be with you, the Cypriot side! "


    "Nonsense!" Jun Qingshang glared at Yun Ruoleng, and stretched out his hand, wanting to pull her back to properly punish her, but did not expect Yun Ruoleng''s reaction to be faster than his, and he slipped away from his hands like a cunning cat.


    Jun Qingshang quickly chased with a darkened face. He wanted to catch her, but he didn''t expect that every time he caught her, he would grab her quickly, and she would slip away from his hands. The two of them were chasing each other, and the place was filled with Yun Ruoleng''s cheerful laughter.


    The pear blossoms that were as white as snow fluttered and fell along with the wind, covering the entire small path. Yun Ruoleng hid and hid like a cheerful fairy as he stood at the entrance while holding onto his sword, and his gaze unconsciously turned to follow her.


    At this moment, someone knocked on Pear Garden''s door. The two people playing seemed to not have heard him at all.


    An Yue regained his senses and went to open the door, but the moment the door was opened, An Yue was pushed open, a lady dressed in a pink dress rushed in, and upon entering, her expression froze.


    "What are you doing?"


    His voice was not loud, just loud enough for the two of them to hear. An Yue immediately regretted opening the door and letting him in, his gaze carefully looking at Jun Qingshang whose smile had stiffened, his heart calling out Not good.


    "Who?" Jun Qingshang coldly swept a glance at the woman, and once again, looked at Yun Ruoleng who was hiding behind the tree trunk. "Ruo Er, come out."


    "Elder brother Xin ¡­"


    "You want me to come out so quickly?" Yun Ruoleng stuck his head out from behind the tree trunk. The moment her exquisite little face appeared, the woman stopped talking, her gaze couldn''t help but size up Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t even look at her, and mischievously stuck his tongue out at Jun Qingshang. Instead, he laughed out loud: "Madam is becoming more and more mischievous."


    Yun Ruoleng snorted, he seemed to have just seen her and asked suspiciously: "You know this girl?"


    Jun Qingshang looked in the direction she pointed, and shook his head: "I don''t know."


    The woman''s eyes reddened in anger when she heard that, "Big Brother Jun, how can you say that you don''t know Lian''er? Ever since you left that day, Lian''er has been thinking about you and even dreaming. Do you still remember what you said the other day when you left? You said that you would definitely marry me the next time you come back. Is it because of this demoness that you aren''t willing to marry me? "


    The lady pointed at Yun Ruoleng and roared.


    This made Yun Ruoleng very unhappy, and his gaze was slightly cold as he stared at Jun Qingshang: "Is this true?"


    "Impossible." Jun Qingshang''s eyes darkened. An Yue immediately wanted to grab hold of the woman, but he was panicked and gave her a look. An Yue understood and tried to pull the woman away, but the woman easily dodged it.


    The lady angrily walked in front of Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng, pointed at Yun Ruoleng and cursed: "Bitch, you''re the one who stole my original brother, I want your life!"


    What Yun Ruoleng did not expect was that the woman actually had martial arts, and her martial arts were not weak either. Luckily, Yun Ruoleng was not a pushover, and somersaulted backwards in the air, kicking away the hand she was reaching for him.


    The lady''s hand was opened, and her body unsteadily retreated a step, just in time to give Yun Ruoleng a chance, as a soft sword was pressed against her neck.


    "I don''t care who you are, if I want you dead, I''ll squash you like an ant!" Yun Ruoleng waved the flexible sword in his hand in front of the lady, scaring her to the point that she lost all her looks.


    "How dare you! "I am Yin Lian, the direct daughter of the Yin family. If you dare to even touch a single hair on my head, my father will definitely not let you off!"


    Yun Ruoleng laughed in disdain, he threw the sword in his hand forward: "I really want to try, how come he won''t let me go?"


    "You ¡­"


    "An Yue!" Yun Ruoleng gave a charming smile, her phoenix eyes slightly raised, "Go and invite Master Yin over!"


    "Don''t!" Yin Lian''er looked at the sword pointed at her, and anxiously stopped An Yue''s movements. But how could An Yue listen to her?


    Yin Lian''er looked at Jun Qingshang with a bitter face, wanting him to stop An Yue for a while.


    In the end, Jun Qingshang gave her a cold and detached back.


    Yun Ruoleng agreed with Jun Qingshang''s reaction quite a bit, but she disagreed with what the woman said just now. The sword in her hand uncontrollably loosened another centimeter forward, and Yin Lian''er unconsciously took a step back as she waved her small hand: "Big sister is wrong, you should go around me this time!"

 C204

    "My family has the youngest sister, not as big as you." Yun Ruoleng looked at her baring her fangs and brandishing her claws, "Just now, you wanted to kill me, but did you ever think of begging for mercy?"


    "I... I was just playing around. Madam, don''t take it seriously, don''t take it seriously ¡­ Yin Lian''er said to Yun Ruoleng as she giggled, while vigilantly looking at the sword that was pointing at her neck.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Yin Lian with a smile that was not a smile. This woman was really childish. She wasn''t an idiot, so how could she not see that playing around and carrying a murderous intent were two different things?


    Jun Qingshang stood under the Pear Blossom Tree and watched Yin Lian, who was trembling in fear. He couldn''t help but frown, but he didn''t try to stop Yun Ruoleng.


    Luckily, Yin Mingqiu arrived very quickly. Upon seeing this scene, Yin Mingqiu glared at Yin Lian with a straight face and a displeased expression, "What are you up to this time? It is unbecoming of you to come and disturb the rest of the young masters and ladies. "


    "Father ¡­"


    "Hurry up and apologize to the lady!"


    Yin Lian''er looked at her father in disbelief. However, under her father''s imposing manner, she had no choice but to bless Yun Ruoleng: "Lian''er knows her wrongs, she shouldn''t have come and disturbed your rest, Young Master and Miss."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head: "We should not have disturbed us.


    Yun Ruoleng kept his flexible sword and stretched as he walked towards Jun Qingshang. Jun Qingshang held Yun Ruoleng''s small hand, and said with a gloomy face: "The three misses want to assassinate my wife, didn''t Old Master Yin explain anything?"


    "Assault?" Yin Mingqiu looked at his daughter, who was about to bury her head in the ground, and glared at her. "What''s going on?"


    "N-nothing!" Yin Lian was also a smart person. She quickly held her father''s hand and said, "I was just joking with you, wasn''t I, my lady?"


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrow, and nodded his head with a smile that was not a smile. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was not pursuing the matter any further, Jun Qingshang did not continue speaking. Yin Mingqiu unhappily glared at Yin Lian and cupped his hands towards Yun Ruoleng.


    "Of course I wouldn''t want to experience it with a little girl!" Yun Ruoleng covered his face and laughed lightly, waving his hand, "Miss Yin, you must be frightened, why don''t you go back and rest first!"


    "How could that be? This little girl has always been spoiled by habit. It''s fine as long as she isn''t angry, it''s fine as long as she isn''t angry." Yin Mingqiu turned around and glared at Yin Lian, clasping his hands together in greeting, "This one will take her back first. Lady and Young Noble, please take your time to rest."


    "Take care, Old Master Yin!" Yun Ruoleng nodded slightly, and watched Yin Mingqiu leave with his eyes. His small face instantly darkened, as he turned around and glared at Jun Qingshang unhappily: "What''s going on with that girl?"


    "What does it have to do with me?" Jun Qingshang innocently looked at Yun Ruoleng: "She made it up. I really didn''t say anything like that."


    Yun Ruoleng''s sharp eyes swept over his body once, and snorted lightly as he turned around and walked back into the room. Seeing that she was not angry, Jun Qingshang turned his head and glared at her. An Yue felt his scalp go numb, he felt wronged in his heart! He did not know that the woman would run all the way here!


    Yin Lian followed behind Yin Mingqiu with her head lowered. She didn''t even dare to breathe loudly. Yin Mingqiu didn''t say anything along the way. After returning to her courtyard, she only arranged for her maidservants to look after her before she left.


    Yun Ruoleng did not know about Yin Mingqiu''s arrangements. At the moment, she was sitting in her room, staring at Jun Qingshang who was seated opposite of her, and did not speak the entire time, while Jun Qingshang was trembling with fear and did not dare speak. The two of them were silent for a long time before Jun Qingshang finally spoke: "Ruo Er? Are you planning to never speak to me again? "


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng shook her head. No one knew what she was thinking, but her eyes were unfocused and unfocused. Jun Qingshang waved his hand in front of her face, and she finally regained her senses.


    "What is Ruo Er thinking that makes him so engrossed in his thoughts?" Jun Qingshang thought, if he did not do something wrong, why should he be afraid of Yue Yang''s questioning? Therefore, Jun Qingshang took the initiative to find a topic to discuss with Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at him and sighed: "I am thinking if that madman will come again."


    Jun Qingshang rubbed his chin, and said as though he was thinking about something: "I don''t think he will come. After all, the Yin family is a big family, they can''t afford to lose face like that."


    "That may not be so!" Yun Ruoleng shook her head disapprovingly. Yin Mingqiu couldn''t bear to lose him, but Yin Lian was no longer afraid! He had already lost face once, so it shouldn''t be more than the second time, right?


    Jun Qingshang suddenly realised that he really didn''t understand women, and could not understand what these people were thinking. Such a disgraceful matter, Yin Mingqiu would definitely teach her a lesson.


    But the fact is... Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang chatted until they heard another knock on the door. This time, An Yue was smarter, he did not open the door but asked, "Who is this?"


    "Mistress, the maidservants are here to deliver this gift." After An Yue heard the noise outside, he returned to report.


    Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng looked at each other, then Yun Ruoleng spoke out first: "Ask clear who''s servant is it, and you shouldn''t be like that woman just now."


    "Yes sir!" After An Yue heard it clearly, he let her in. However, the moment he opened the door, he realized that something was wrong, and it was too late to shout.


    "Elder brother Xin ¡­" A lady in a long green dress ran in. She looked at Yun Ruoleng for a moment, then asked with a smile: "My name is Yin Yan''er, what''s your name elder sister?"


    Yun Ruoleng did not look at her, but looked towards Jun Qingshang who was seated unmoving by the side, and leisurely said: "Xin, this young lady is looking for you!"


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth lifted slightly, but in the next second, his face darkened. He looked at Yin Yan''er unhappily: "Miss Yan''er, you came in here so naturally, aren''t you being too rude?"


    "Eh ¡­" Yin Yan''er didn''t look that tall; she should be a little younger than Yin Lian. However, her deep gaze made her seem even deeper than Yin Lian. Hearing Jun Qingshang''s words, she immediately blessed herself: "Young Master, Young Lady."


    "Is there something I can help you with?" Jun Qingshang said indifferently, not even glancing at her during this period.


    Yin Yan''er nodded her head, she did not seem to feel awkward, and waved towards the outside, the two servants carrying the two red lacquered trays came in, and steadily placed it in the middle of the table beside Yun Ruoleng: "This is the unique osmanthus cake for this season, Yan''er had someone bring it over from the kitchen, how about you two try it?"


    "Miss Xie Yan''er is very concerned. Please leave your things behind, if there''s nothing else please leave first." Jun Qingshang glanced at the two plates of osmanthus cake in front of him and frowned in disgust, "Ruo Er doesn''t like sweet food, plus this thing is bad for the stomach, it''s better to eat less."

 C205

    Yun Ruoleng did not say anything. Her gaze was fixated on the osmanthus cake for a long time, she did not even know how Yin Yan''er left.


    After Jun Qingshang ordered his men to remove the osmanthus cake, he reached out and held Yun Ruoleng''s small hand: "Ruo Er."


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: "Qing Xin, I understand. If you really had something to do with them, you wouldn''t have had to wait until after you married me. When you met them, it was much earlier than when you first met me."


    "Ruo Er is great." Jun Qingshang''s expression changed, the hand holding Yun Ruoleng''s hand tightened, "I''m bringing you to the hot spring pool to soak in?"


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head, her slender finger pointing at the Gui Hua Cake that had been withdrawn, "If you don''t have anything to say, then please be a thief! I want to see what''s so different about this osmanthus cake. "


    With that, Yun Ruoleng got An Yue to retrieve the osmanthus cake that had not been poured yet, and pulled a hairpin from his head to insert into it. However, he discovered that there was no poison in it, and so he examined the second one again, but did not find any problems.


    Yun Ruoleng scratched his chin: "Qingxin, if you wanted to harm me, which piece of cake would you sprinkle the medicinal powder on?"


    Jun Qingshang glanced at the pastries, "A smart person will not poison something with his poison. All of these can be eaten. "


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, of course she knew all of this, but it was inevitable for some people to try their luck at the peak.


    In the Yue Ling Capital, Phoenix Diagram was the same as usual, sitting at the head of the table and drinking until his face was flushed red. His phoenix eyes were blurred as he watched the dancers dancing around in the hall, with the corners of his mouth raised, he laughed loudly and raised his wine cup: "Cheers..."


    Huang Tu''s drunk appearance had long fallen into the spy''s eyes. Seeing that he had long since lost consciousness, he secretly slipped away.


    Of course, this was also the only time when the Phoenix Diagram was not being watched. Phoenix Diagram, who was secretly plotting something important, stood up and walked towards the back of the hall with the support of his personal bodyguards.


    In the forest, there were jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards, so no one dared to rashly go near it. Thus, most of the time, they would only go out of the forest, but to pass through an extremely dangerous canyon, which was also why Yue Ling and the Heavenly Enlightenment were unwilling to fight.


    "Your Highness, how much longer do we have before we arrive?" Because of the journey, Yin Mingzhu looked a little pale and a little tired.


    Huang Teng looked at the terrain, frowned, and burst out with an evil aura that could not be hidden: "This speed, in three days, will be Yue Ling, don''t worry, secondary wife!"


    Yin Mingzhu nodded, put down the curtain and yawned, then leaned against the maid''s body and fell asleep.


    After all, she was a woman, and Huang Teng still cared a lot about her, it was just that her position was not good, so Huang Teng ordered for them to rest here for an hour, and after eating dinner, they would continue their journey.


    As soon as he entered the night carriage, a call for a servant came over. Huang Teng was forced to stop and check the situation, the moment he entered the carriage, he saw Yin Ming Zhu shivering on the soft ground, beads of sweat dripping from her forehead, looking extremely pained. After hearing the call, she turned her head and gave Huang Teng a smile, "Your Highness, you should continue with the carriage! The terrain here is complex, it is not easy to stay for long. "


    "My beloved concubine is already so ill, how can you make me travel?" Huang Teng snorted, and berated sternly, "What are they all doing? Since the secondary concubines are in such a state, you all will have to wait for the final result! "


    "Your servant ¡­"


    "It''s none of their business, I''m the one who should be blamed for this. My body is too weak, I was afraid that it would affect the carriage''s progress, so I kept them in the dark." Yin Mingzhu was indeed worthy of being the daughter of the Minister of Rites, she would never do anything without thinking for others. These words made Huang Teng''s heart soften as he sighed. I''ll have the imperial physician come in and take a look. There''s no need to hurry tonight.


    "But this place is very dangerous, I don''t want to burden everyone just because of me. If His Highness insists on staying, then I will die from the pain." Yin Mingzhu''s unyielding character caused Huang Teng to be slightly stunned. Seeing that she was still a patient, he didn''t pester her to threaten him and waved his hand to get out.


    Soon, the curtain of the carriage was opened once more, and two men around the age of thirty walked in with boxes in their hands. The horse carriage began to move at this moment.


    In the carriage, the royal doctors were treating Yin Ming Zhu''s illness, but the people outside were walking with their guards up, there were many bandits here, if they were used by someone, they would definitely not be able to return, so Huang Teng had to be on guard.


    But there were some things that were hard to guard against, when they just reached an extremely dangerous place, they heard a rumbling sound and stopped, raising their heads to look, and using the weak moonlight, they saw the thick smoke, causing Huang Teng''s face to turn ugly, and signaled for everyone to retreat.


    Unfortunately, it was too late. The rumbling sound was getting closer and closer. Suddenly, a group of people with torches appeared behind them and blocked their way.


    "Everyone, be careful!" Huang Teng got off his horse, "Everyone, quickly dismount!"


    With the order given, everyone dismounted from their horses. Rumbling rocks struck the horses, and everyone quickly dodged. Although they were able to dodge fast, the horses were severely injured. In addition, there were rocks on both sides of the road.


    At this moment, no one had noticed Yin Mingzhu''s carriage, which was severely injured.


    "Kill!" After a series of rocks were smashed all over the place, the people who were blocking their path quickly rushed over. Huang Teng led his people and began to retreat, but just as he took a few steps, another group of people appeared out of nowhere and blocked their path.


    "Who are you people!" Huang Teng had brought a few elite guards with him, but after experiencing the rock attack just now, there were only a few left. Adding on to that the fact that there were some civil servants, the civil servants would naturally hide at the side and tremble when they encountered this kind of situation, while the guards and generals were all protecting Huang Teng, how could they care so much about that!


    The other party did not have any intention to answer them, with a wave of his hand, a group of masked men rushed forward, Huang Teng wanted to reason with them, but the group of people did not give him any chance to reason, holding their swords, he looked at them, Huang Teng was not foolish, he quickly gave the order, and the two sides started fighting.


    It was a pity that Huang Teng lost, and it was a very thorough defeat. The masked man had his men count the people and dig a hole and bury Huang Teng.


    The sky quickly brightened. Jun Qingshang, who had drank a little last night, seemed to be very excited. She pulled Yun Ruoleng out of bed early in the morning, saying that she wanted to take a look.


    "I''m not going ¡­" Yun Ruoleng blurrily opened his eyes and powerlessly rolled over his body.


    Jun Qingshang was helpless, he could only clean up the mess for Yun Ruoleng personally.

 C206

    However, the Regent suddenly realized that he''d made a mistake by not bringing that chattering maidservant with him.


    This was because he didn''t know anything about makeup and hair. He only knew how to pull up some extremely simple hair styles.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t like people who he didn''t know to serve him, to the point that it was Peach Blossom who served him closely for so long.


    After Jun Qingshang finished dressing Yun Ruoleng, he finally had some energy. He lifted his golden eyes and asked: "Where did you say you were going just now?"


    The Yin Clan has a hot spring that can cure injuries. Let''s take a bath there to relieve your fatigue." "Jun Qingsheng tied her hair up in a simple bun, then tied it with a hairpin before lifting her up in a peremptory manner." "Since it''s open air, we''ll try to go at night.


    Yun Ruoleng yawned, her small head nudged in his embrace: "You can call me when you''re there!"


    Maybe he was really tired, Yun Ruoleng found a comfortable place and fell asleep. Jun Qingshang walked to the so-called hot spring side and did not disturb the sleeping Yun Ruoleng, and instead carried her directly into the hot spring pool.


    Because they had suddenly left the warm water, the cold air instantly attacked Yun Ruoleng. The originally sleeping Yun Ruoleng was immediately awakened, and her blurry eyes looked at Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang used his Qi to quickly dry the two people''s clothes. He was afraid that Yun Ruoleng would be cold, so he stayed for a while longer to retract his Qi. Yun Ruoleng wrapped one hand around his neck and the other against his chest: "It''s great that you have such a deep inner strength, but are you going to hurt me by using it like this?"


    Jun Qingshang shook his head with a smile: "How could that be? It''s just a simple exercise of power, there''s no harm in it. "


    Yun Ruoleng nodded as if he understood something: "Then, where are we going next?"


    "Let''s go back to the Pear Garden for breakfast, then we''ll go to the horse racing grounds to the east of Yin City. Tomorrow, we''ll set out to Lian Chi in Southern City ¡­" Jun Qingshang paused, "The lotus flowers in the lotus pond always bloom undefeated, but they are unlike the pear blossoms in the Pear Garden. As for why, no one knows yet. "


    "Sounds holy." Yun Ruoleng''s eyes sparkled as she looked at Jun Qingshang, her crystal-like pink lips opened and closed, as if she was asking to taste it again.


    Because he was rushing on his way, he did not touch her yesterday. Just now, when he saw that she was sleeping soundly, he did not want to disturb her dreams, but he had endured for such a long time, yet in the end, this woman seduced him completely unknowingly.


    Jun Qingshang increased his speed as he calculated how to eat the little white rabbit in his arms. He was still speaking nonstop without realizing the arrival of danger, "If you come out like this, what will you do if the emperor encounters something? Did you send back yesterday''s memorial? Oh right, why haven''t I seen An Yue this morning? "


    "I didn''t see it either!" When Jun Qingshang heard the other man''s name from his mouth, he was especially uncomfortable. With a cold snort, he quickened his pace.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang as if he thought about something. Unknowingly, the two of them had already reached the entrance of Pear Garden. Jun Qingshang kicked open the closed door with his foot.


    Yun Ruoleng tensed up, she did not speak, but closed the door automatically after she entered, Yun Ruoleng propped up his body and curiously looked behind her, seeing that no one was looking at her, he asked: "Qinghu, why did the door close automatically?"


    "The wind blew." Jun Qingshang held her tighter as he walked into the room, and the door closed automatically.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, feeling that the Qi on his body was a little strange, he extended his hand suspiciously and touched his forehead, discovering that he was fine, he frowned, just as he was about to speak, he was blocked by a cold thin mouth.


    "Woo woo ¡­" Yun Ruoleng opened her eyes wide, her small hands were on Jun Qingshang''s chest, her face immediately flushed red. She wanted to say something, but she was restrained by Jun Qingshang.


    Seeing her open her eyes and look at him, Jun Qingshang frowned. She reached out her hand to cover Yun Ruoleng''s eyes and started to feel for her clothes with her other hand. Yun Ruoleng finally realized that he had fallen into her wolf mouth and regretted it too late.


    What if he said he would go to the horse racing and what if he said he would go play?!


    Yun Ruoleng had been tormented by Jun Qingshang for more than four hours, and seeing that she could not hold on any longer, Jun Qingshang finally let her go, using the word ''conscience discovery''.


    Yun Ruoleng hugged his blanket and hid far away. After cursing Jun Qingshang in his heart, he could not take it anymore and fell asleep.


    Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, and hugged Yun Ruoleng who was so tired that he did not even want to move his fingers, and gently pulled the blanket over him.


    Afterwards, Jun Qingshang was woken up by the sound of an eagle. The awakened Jun Qingshang looked at the Yun Ruoleng who was still sleeping soundly, and then carefully left the room.


    "Master!" An Yue held onto a huge black hawk with his left hand and handed a bamboo tube that was the size of a little finger to Jun Qingshang with his other hand.


    Jun Qingshang received the bamboo tube coldly, and took out a piece of paper the length of a palm from inside. Opening it, Jun Qingshang frowned as he took a look, and then handed the paper over to An Yue and ordered: "Investigate!"


    An Yue took a look at the contents of the letter and nodded. Then, he turned around and left the place as Jun Qingshang returned to his room with his sleeves flicking, looking at the little girl curled up on the bed.


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to feel that someone was staring at her from behind, and she unconsciously opened her eyes. Glaring fiercely at the culprit, she coldly snorted and turned her back to him, continuing to sleep.


    "Ruo Er is angry?" Jun Qingshang slowly sat down and spread her news.


    "Humph!" With a cold face, Yun Ruoleng decided to show his highness some face. Even if he ate her everyday, she wouldn''t be able to take it!


    Jun Qingshang leaned close to Yun Ruoleng and exhaled a breath of hot air, his face seemed to have an apologetic expression: "This king has no choice, Ruo Er is too seductive."


    "Jun Qingshang!" Yun Ruoleng''s face, which was originally slightly red, instantly looked like a skinned shrimp. She extended her hand and directly pushed away the face that was almost within reach, "When did you become like this!?"


    "How is it?" Jun Qingshang raised her eyebrows charmingly, and her gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng''s chest. It was because she had accidentally revealed the radiance of spring when she had extended her hand just now.


    Yun Ruoleng followed his eyes that were emitting a green light and quickly covered himself with the blanket: "Bastard!"


    Jun Qingshang was amused by her shy look: "Why are you blocking? How can I not have read it? "


    If you don''t listen, then don''t listen. Yun Ruoleng tightly wrapped himself in the blanket, only revealing a pair of foggy eyes, as if he was accusing Jun Qingshang of his crime.

 C207

    Jun Qingshang sighed helplessly, "You''ll suffocate yourself."


    Yun Ruoleng groaned, as if to tell him, If you don''t leave, I won''t come out.


    Seeing this, Jun Qingshang helplessly stood up with his back facing her: "Quickly get up and put on your clothes, I''ll accompany you to walk around the horse farm."


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng lift up the blanket, with a wave of his hand, he put down the bed curtain and relaxed, he began to inspect his clothes, but discovered that there were no clothes on the bed, and became intoxicated.


    "That ¡­"


    "Take it." Jun Qingshang pushed the clothes into the curtain with one hand and opened the curtain with the other, "Hurry, the sun is about to set."


    "It''s all your fault!" After Yun Ruoleng pushed Jun Qingshang''s head out of the curtain, he quickly donned the clothes on his body, and muttered as he did so, "We could have set off earlier, but we don''t know who was the beast with the surname of ''Big'' behind this door."


    Jun Qingshang stood outside the curtain and scratched his nose guiltily. In truth, this matter was still his fault, so he could not do it sometimes, but the more he did it, the more he died.


    An hour had already passed since Yun Ruoleng finished cleaning up. He dragged his sore body out and wanted to hug her a few times, but was pushed away. He could only reach out and support her.


    At the entrance of the Pear Garden, Yun Ruoleng suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned and glared at Jun Qingshang: Where''s An Yue?


    Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly knitted together: "He went to do some work, and he won''t be back for a while. You asked me twice today, but what is it that you''re hiding from me? "


    "I''m not hiding anything from you, it''s just that An Yue is one of my people, if he suddenly disappears, I''ll naturally have to ask." Yun Ruoleng walked forward half a step before stopping. He turned around and looked at Jun Qingshang seriously, "You already gave him to me, why did you let him do this for you?"


    Jun Qingshang rubbed his nose, "You and I are still so clear? This is what An Yue is supposed to do anyway. I can let him do it without worry, he can do it with ease. "


    Yun Ruoleng let out a cold snort and continued to walk shakily. Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng''s weird posture with regret and heartache, but in the end, he couldn''t hold it in anymore. He reached out and grabbed her up, "Your speed can''t even get up when it gets dark."


    Yun Ruoleng who was originally pushing and pushing them stopped in her tracks, with a light humph, she did not reject again.


    Seeing her cute little expression, Jun Qingshang couldn''t help but laugh.


    At the entrance of the Yin Palace, Treading on the Snow Wu Hen honestly stood there. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang had arrived, he raised his hoof and screamed happily.


    Jun Qingshang placed Yun Ruoleng on the ground, climbed on his horse, and then handed his hand over to Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng touched Traceless Snowy''s mane, and then passed his hand over to Jun Qingshang. Jun Qingshang''s large hand tightly wrapped around Yun Ruoleng''s small hand. Then, with a slight force of his arm, he firmly pulled her onto the horse and sat in front of him.


    Treading on the snow, he obediently walked forward a few steps. After hearing Jun Qingshang''s orders, he happily ran outside.


    Traceless Snowsteps was really fast, and he soon arrived at the so called racetrack.


    This horse farm was neither big nor small. It seemed to be the distance of a football field.


    Yun Ruoleng tilted his head to calculate and could not help but sigh. The ancients truly knew how to play, and only the rich could come to this kind of place, so their income must be not low.


    "This farm belongs to the Yin Clan. Anyone who can run horses here is either a rich or a wealthy person." Treading through the snow, he walked into the stables. He looked at the horses running in the stables, panting with disdain.


    Yun Ruoleng caressed its mane, and laughed: "No wonder why you cultivate to this extent, and why everyone rides a good horse."


    "That''s right!" "But these horses can''t be compared with Treading on Snow." Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng who was fondling her snow-white mane with one hand, while holding onto Yun Ruoleng''s small hand with the other hand, holding onto the reins of the horse with his other hand, and handed it over to Yun Ruoleng, "I''ll teach you how to ride a horse."


    "Treading Snow is so obedient. Sitting on her, she knows what her master is thinking, so there''s no need to teach her." Yun Ruoleng excitedly stepped on the snow and helped her pluck it in her throat, completely ignoring the man''s dripping face behind her.


    Yun Ruoleng imitated Jun Qingshang, and used his strength to pinch Treading On Snow''s abdomen: "Be good, and accompany me for a walk."


    As if she understood Yun Ruoleng''s words, she raised her front hooves and quickly ran across the horse farm. As Yun Ruoleng had fallen backwards due to inertia, Jun Qingshang steadily caught her and pulled onto the reins unhappily: "Hold tight, your body is forward so that you won''t fall down."


    Yun Ruoleng forced herself to nod her head, and her fingers that was pulling the reins subconsciously tightened, and when Jun Qingshang saw that she was finally willing to seriously learn, he did not make things difficult for her.


    Putting it away, he felt that it was a bit too much for a stately Regent to eat like a horse.


    Yun Ruoleng still didn''t know that danger was approaching her again. After running a circle around the horse farm, he was a little tired. Leaning into Jun Qingshang''s embrace, he said listlessly: "I''m tired, let''s go back."


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang nodded and looked to the west. The sun had already started to set.


    Jun Qingshang made Treading on the Snow, and then he changed the angle, and rode his horse away.


    Under the faint setting sun, Yun Ruoleng snuggled into Jun Qingshang''s embrace and closed his eyes to rest. The horse moved about in a rhythmic motion, neither fast nor slow. It was a man''s broad and comfortable chest.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled faintly. It was great.


    When he returned to Pear Garden, Yun Ruoleng was already asleep. Jun Qingshang couldn''t bear to wake up her beauty, so he simply carried her back. When he came out of his room, An Yue immediately handed him a piece of paper after finishing his work.


    Jun Qingshang swept a glance over it, and his grave face instantly darkened. "Does the emperor know?"


    "Your subordinate has already told the emperor." An Yue suddenly thought of something, and took out a letter from his clothes to pass to Jun Qingshang, "The emperor said that the Wind King has been taking action recently, do we need to get rid of him first?"


    "No need." Jun Qingshang opened the envelope and looked at the letter for a long time before sighing, "Smelting the ink."


    An Yue turned around and prepared a pen and paper. Then, Yun Ruoleng, who was originally fast asleep, came up behind Jun Qingshang: "Qingsheng, what happened?"


    "The crown prince of Yue Ling died at the border between the two countries. Although it is a place with Yue Ling, it does not exclude the possibility that the heavens are doing it intentionally, so this king sends people to investigate."


    A crown prince had died just like that?


    Yun Ruoleng was extremely shocked, he immediately thought of Yin Ming Zhu and asked: What about the young lady? She was the daughter of the Minister of Li Li Li! If I really lost my life the moment I stepped into the Yue Ling, wouldn''t that mean I killed an innocent girl? "


    "Don''t be impatient." Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng who was anxious and restless as he prepared to leave, patted the place beside him and said, "Sit down first, we''ll think of a solution together."


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng become much calmer, and sat beside Jun Qingshang with his eyes on the letter beside him.

 C208

    Jun Qingshang passed the letter to her: "This is Your Majesty''s eight hundred fifty kilometers worth of urgency, although I don''t know why I should rush it."


    "The Emperor wanted to be bored by himself in the palace, so he thought of a way for you to go back!" Yun Ruoleng chuckled and started to read the letter. In an instant, his face changed, "Isn''t this a joke?"


    "I don''t know where King Feng got the news that I''m not here, so he decided to make a move at this time. I think that if we don''t properly deal with him this time, he will never know how powerful he is."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the letter and shook his head, the temper of Jun Qingfeng was not that of someone who liked to take advantage of others, naturally, the Regent''s Capital would not be taken down this time.


    "Why are you shaking your head?" Jun Qingshang squinted and asked.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled faintly but did not speak, her gaze landing on the letter. Jun Qingshang became even more suspicious, following her gaze, he could just happen to see the rows of words, but the rows of words did not have much of a change.


    Yun Ruoleng tapped his index finger on the table, one hand on his chin, after thinking for a moment, he spoke: "King Feng is about to start, do you want to lead the troops?"


    "He still doesn''t have the ability to be my opponent." Jun Qingshang felt disdain towards Jun Qingfeng, thinking that if she could get rid of him, she would be able to protect Jun Rushi, so why wouldn''t she do the same?


    Yun Ruoleng naturally saw through Jun Qingshang''s intention and nodded slightly. Looks like this honeymoon was about to end.


    But she was also very happy, at least Jun Qingshang still made time to accompany her.


    An Yue walked over with the tray that was filled with ink and paper. Yun Ruoleng consciously took the items and poured some tea onto the tray, he then picked up the ink stone and started to write, while grinding the ink, he asked: "When are we going back?"


    "Tomorrow." Jun Qingshang paused, "After all, the problem we are facing is not only Jun Qingfeng, but also the crown prince of Yue Ling."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded. Thinking about it, he felt that he had let down the Minister of Rites, Master Yin.


    Jun Qingshang saw through Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts with a glance, and sighed lightly: "There are some things that shouldn''t be too excessive, it''s fate that no one can change it."


    Yun Ruoleng, who always didn''t believe in the legends of the gods and ghosts, had no choice but to believe in a lot of things ever since she teleported here.


    Yun Ruoleng understood after he thought about it. He turned around and smiled faintly, and his hands moved a lot faster.


    After writing a few words on the paper with the brush, he handed it to An Yue. Then, Jun Qingshang took out a piece of paper and shockingly wrote on it: "Wait and see".


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but laugh when he saw the note. He could see the little Emperor''s expression on it.


    Poor little Emperor, trying to think of a way to get them to return, but was turned back into a soldier by Jun Qingshang.


    After Yun Ruoleng tidied up the table for Jun Qingshang, she smiled and held his hand: "Let''s go take a stroll at the Yin Manor! "Since I''m leaving anyway, if I don''t go around such a luxurious place like this, I might regret it in the future!"


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s eyes twitched unintentionally, but he didn''t reject Yun Ruo''s small request. Holding her hand, he prepared to stroll around the Yin Residence.


    After Yun Ruoleng went out and made a turn to the right, he immediately met Yin Lian. When Yin Lian saw Jun Qingshang, her eyes instantly lit up, but when she saw Yun Ruoleng, her expression darkened immediately. Lian''er will lead the way for you. "


    "No need." Jun Qingshang''s stern face carried a trace of impatience as he walked around her in a straight line.


    Yun Ruoleng really could not help but roll his eyes. This woman was really like a ghost that never left. She was dressed up like a flower and wandered around Pear Garden when the sky was dark, no one knew what she was thinking.


    How much disdain did Yun Ruoleng have for Yin Lian''er, the enmity Yin Lian had towards Yun Ruoleng did not decrease at all. Looking at the back of their hands, she was so delicate that her little face was almost twisted into a ball.


    "Miss, shall we go back?" The servant girl beside Yin Lian carefully gave her a reminder. However, she didn''t expect Yin Lian to give her a slap in the face.


    The young maid covered her face and lowered her head, not daring to speak again.


    Although Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang did not see what happened behind his back, they had clearly heard his slap. Yun Ruoleng unceremoniously curled his lips at Jun Qingshang: "Do you want to go back to take a look?"


    Jun Qingshang laughed, and shook his head: "No need, just acting."


    Yun Ruoleng also laughed, the two of them were indeed the same. They could both tell that this servant was plotting with Yin Lian. In any case, it was good for Yin Lian to talk to Jun Qingshang more.


    However, this maidservant was also loyal and was willing to put up with this stratagem. It was likely that she had obtained a lot of benefits.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang casually walked a circle before returning to the Pear Garden. Just as they stepped into the Pear Garden, they heard An Yue reporting, "Miss Yin Yan''er has arrived."


    Yun Ruoleng''s little face instantly darkened, his entire body started to emit cold air, "Go back to your room, I''ll go!"


    With that said, Yun Ruoleng walked over aggressively.


    Jun Qingshang could not help but chuckle. The beautiful eyes was all smiles, but they were waving towards An Yue as they walked towards the room.


    "The girl is back." Yin Yan''er smiled as she welcomed him, her gaze inadvertently sweeping past Yun Ruoleng''s back. Seeing that she did not see the person she was waiting for, the smile on her face became a little lighter: "I prepared some midnight snacks for Miss, do you like it?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze swept across the maids behind her, and then landed on the tray in her hands. Inside the tray was the glutinous rice and osmanthus cake, which looked very delicious, but Yun Ruoleng did not have the slightest bit of appetite: "Put it down! If there''s nothing else, Lady Yan''Er should return first! After all, it''s late at night, and the road is not safe at night. "


    "I ¡­" Yin Yan''er paused for a moment, then nodded, "That young lady should rest early, I will come back to see you tomorrow."


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and nodded, after watching her leave, his smile disappeared, leaving behind a cold expression.


    Returning back to the bedroom, Jun Qingshang saw that she did not look well, so he asked: "Did she make you angry?"


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head, looking at Jun Qingshang''s face, which was full of misfortune, she could not help but pinch it: "I really want to destroy that face! That way, we won''t have to attract butterflies in order to win them over! "


    Jun Qingshang held Yun Ruoleng''s small hand and chuckled: "Your husband''s disfigurement scared Ruo Er? It''s best to keep it pleasant to the eyes. "


    "Go out and bring a bamboo hat!" Don''t mess with the Fey everywhere, or else I won''t care if the Fey eat me. " Yun Ruoleng snorted in anger, blaming Yin Yan''er and Yin Lian''er''s actions on Jun Qingshang''s face.


    Jun Qingshang was helpless, but he still nodded his head.


    Because they were returning to the capital the next day, Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang went to sleep early. When they woke up on the next day, An Yue had already prepared two bamboo hats for the two of them.

 C209

    "Ruo Er is a natural born beauty, your husband felt uncomfortable looking at the man''s stunning appearance on the street, so he decided to wear it together. Once we get back to the capital, it won''t be too late to pluck them all. " Jun Qingshang said as he helped her put on her bamboo hat.


    "¡­" Too much, too cunning!


    Yun Ruoleng wore a white jacket and a white gauze bamboo hat, which wrapped around her perfect face and petite body. Only then did Jun Qingshang smile with satisfaction, and lead her out.


    Because his line of sight was blocked, many things that he wanted to see were in a daze, causing Yun Ruoleng to feel extremely uncomfortable. He then looked at Jun Qingshang''s so-called bamboo hat, which was only worn by a bamboo hat, there was nothing else, towards this unfair treatment, Yun Ruoleng angrily lifted his muslin: "Very stuffy!"


    Jun Qingshang nodded, he extended his hand and helped her tidy up the muslin a bit, then smiled at her, that gaze that was as gentle as water made her involuntarily fall in love with him.


    After the two said their goodbyes to Yin Mingqiu, they got on the carriage and headed towards the capital.


    "Originally, I wanted to bring you to Lian Chi, but because of a sudden incident, I can''t go this time, will Ruo Er blame me?"


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head: "Your Highness is someone who does important things, you have your country to protect, I will not blame you for such a small thing, furthermore, to be able to have you accompany me here, you have already paid too much."


    "I''ve wronged you." Jun Qingshang''s eyes flashed with a complex light, he pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace and sighed: "What do you need so much for a wife?"


    "You are a prince, and you are also my husband. Although I am not a woman who needs you to live, I also want to lean into your embrace without any worries. Qing Sun, promise me that no matter what happens, you will face it together with me." Yun Ruoleng was not a sentimental woman, but when she thought of the possibility of Jun Qingshang encountering danger, she couldn''t help but worry for him.


    "Ruo Er." Jun Qingshang lowered his head and pressed a kiss to her forehead, "The battle between Yue Ling and Heaven''s Enlightenment is right in front of you. I cannot promise you too much, but your safety is the most important, promise me, no matter what happens, don''t try to be brave!"


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng reached out to push him away, and glared at him with a dark expression, "I want to fight alongside you, not hide behind your back. If you don''t promise me, how can I be at ease?"


    This was the first time Jun Qingshang had seen him throw a tantrum like this, and in order to keep himself by his side. This made Jun Qingshang feel both annoyed and amused, but in the end, he shook his hand and said, "Alright, alright, I''ll do whatever you say."


    Jun Qingshang finally gave in, and Yun Ruoleng was relieved. The expression on his face slowly relaxed, as he leaned into Jun Qingshang''s embrace and gently closed his eyes, the harmonious scene was always interrupted.


    The carriage suddenly stopped, Jun Qingshang frowned, and stared coldly at the carriage: "What happened?"


    "Your Highness, there is a group of soldiers blocking the way ahead." An Yue glanced at the dozens of soldiers standing in front of him. This was the pipe of Yin City, it was not strange that they could check the road here, but it was strange that this group of people could only inspect the horse carriages.


    "Who''s so blind?" As the overlord of the capital, he was the only one who could block others'' path. Who would dare to block his path? Even the little emperor didn''t dare to block his way.


    An Yue looked at the approaching soldiers and rubbed his nose awkwardly. This group of people were trying to touch the dragon king''s head!


    Yun Ruoleng, who was in Jun Qingshang''s embrace, looked at Jun Qingshang with a pair of watery eyes. Jun Qingshang''s finger, which was clear and sharp, lightly traced across her pink cheeks, and deviously raised her brows: "Ruo Er, what do you think we should do?"


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t say a word and instead reached his fingers into the front of his clothes. Jun Qingshang''s entire body went stiff, however, not expecting Yun Ruoleng to fumble around with a gold medal inside his clothes, which had the words "Regent" written on it.


    Yun Ruoleng played with the golden plate in his hands, not noticing anything wrong with the man leaning on it.


    An Yue''s ice-cold face carried a trace of ridicule, and his gaze coldly fell on the guard''s body which was approaching unceasingly. The guard leader stood at the very front and pointed at An Yue while shouting, "That person! "Get out, we want to check the cars!"


    "Ha!" An Yue laughed coldly: "I was afraid that you guys wouldn''t dare to check this car!"


    "You don''t dare to investigate?" It was probably just a merchant''s carriage. The head guard became even more impudent, "Could it be that they have hidden some shameful thing that they are afraid to look up? Heh! I was not scared of anyone! "


    "An Yue, show him your order badge!" A clear and melodious female voice came from the carriage. The head guard''s eyes lit up, and without hearing what was said just now, he immediately rushed over to open the curtain. However, before his hand could touch the curtain, he was sent flying by a gust of wind. The head guard was injured, how could the other guards still sit? Each of them pulled out their swords and thrusted towards An Yue.


    An Yue did not move, just as the guards were about to rush to the side of the carriage, three people appeared out of thin air, and the few of them instantly clashed!


    "Stop!" An Yue raised the order badge in his hand and used his Qi to intimidate her: "I am, the King of Regents'' Deputy Guard Captain, An Yue. Who dares to stop me? "


    The guard leader was trembling in fear at the thought of the order badge in An Yue''s hand. He then recalled his previous actions and immediately kneeled down, begging for forgiveness, "This lowly one doesn''t know that the one sitting inside is the wangfei. Please forgive me, wangfei."


    "Why are you searching the carriage with all your might?" Yun Ruoleng was not a busybody, but since these people were trying to harm her, she would naturally not let them go. Jun Qingshang played with Yun Ruoleng''s shiny black hair, he couldn''t help but tease her when he saw her serious look.


    With one hand, Yun Ruoleng used to support his handsome face, while the other used to save his own hair from his demonic claws.


    "This... This... Your subordinate is chasing after the fugitive. " The guard leader summoned up his courage and said, "The fugitive is a woman. She is beautiful and can be easily seen by anyone who walks, but the people riding on the carriage are different ¡­"


    "I think you''re trying to rob a commoner!" An Yue casually swept his eyes over the head guard, and his gaze landed on a group of girls who had been intercepted. "Are you trying to conceal the truth so that my wife can''t see through the curtain?"


    "I... "I ¡­"


    "Princess, how should we deal with this person?" An Yue didn''t even give the guard leader a chance to speak, and directly asked for Yun Ruoleng''s permission.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows and glanced at Jun Qingshang, who only replied with one word, "It''s up to you."


    Yun Ruoleng curled his lips: "Time is of the essence, let me go first! Send a letter home, and let the prince send a messenger to investigate this matter! "


    "Yes sir!" An Yue replied as he glared at the guard who was kneeling on the ground and shivering uncontrollably, "Why aren''t you letting him go! And then pack up and get lost? "


    The guards replied repeatedly. After thanking him, they let the woman out. The women were all grateful people, so they left after kneeling on the ground to express their gratitude.

 C210

    To prevent this from happening again, Yun Ruoleng asked An Yue to send people to investigate this matter, and they walked towards the nearby Gui Hua Town.


    It was just that the Chief Official of Yin City was lustful of beauties, and wanted to rob the common folk''s daughter. Although he had not heard of it in the city, but since he had been found out, Jun Qingshang had no choice but to take care of it.


    Yun Ruoleng was not surprised. Qiao Ren Zhong was a person who coveted fame and fortune, he would definitely pay a lot if he wanted to be a good official. Even if he were to be reborn for another five years, it would still not be enough to stabilize his foundation. With Jun Qingshang''s good calculations, perhaps no one would be able to be better than him.


    It had been a long time since the magistrate had tried to rob a civilian, but no one had dared to report it because of the arrest of the Yin Family. Now that they had run into a nail, the citizens were naturally happy and no one needed to hide their daughter anymore.


    This matter quickly spread throughout the entire Yin City. Even the nearby Gui Hua Town was talking about it.


    At first, he just felt that it was because he was being tormented by someone. When he thought about it later, it should be because he was rushing back, and with him being tormented, causing her to be unable to endure it, he did not mind it too much. After being exhausted for more than two days after returning to the capital, Yun Ruoleng panicked a little and quickly called for the imperial physician.


    "What''s going on?" Imperial Physician Feng took Yun Ruoleng''s pulse, and saw that he was looking at Jun Qingshang strangely, causing Jun Qingshang to become furious: "Why are you looking at me like that?"


    "Ahem, congratulations, Your Highness." The Imperial Physician returned to his senses and cupped his hands towards Jun Qingshang.


    "This King''s wife is already like this and she''s still happy? You think This King is an idiot that can be fooled! " Jun Qingshang kicked the imperial physician, and bellowed with a gloomy face.


    Just as the imperial physician was about to speak, Yun Ruoleng said: "He said I''m pregnant!"


    "What about getting pregnant, he''s just ¡­" Jun Qingshang paused, and the expression on his face instantly froze: "Ruo Er, what did you say?"


    "I said you''ve become a father!" Yun Ruoleng unhappily got up from the soft couch, but was stopped by Jun Qingshang who turned around and glared at the imperial physician, "Why didn''t you say so earlier!?"


    "Eh ¡­" The imperial physician felt wronged! He was kicked by the prince before he could finish his words, alright? Besides, he had hinted at something.


    "Did you give him a chance to speak?" Yun Ruoleng could not hold it in anymore. He stared at Jun Qingshang who was so excited that he did not know what to do and said: "Don''t wander around in front of me, it gives me a headache to watch."


    From the moment Jun Qingshang found out about Yun Ruoleng''s pregnancy, Yun Ruoleng had become the protection of his Regent¡¯s Mansion and the entire Heavenly Enlightenment.


    The imperial physician looked at the considerate Regent Prince''s wife bitterly. Yun Ruoleng smiled at him kindly before calling him over.


    "What orders does the wangfei have?" An Xiang did not understand what had just happened, making the Duke, who did not like to express his feelings, smile foolishly from excitement.


    Yun Ruoleng pointed at Jun Qingshang: "Your highness needs to be calm, bring him out first!"


    "Ah ¡­"


    "Don''t!" Jun Qingshang sat on the soft couch, holding his head up while looking at Yun Ruoleng: "You said it''s not comfortable, this king will let the imperial physician take a look, this way, this king can leave with ease."


    "I''m not uncomfortable ¡­" Yun Ruoleng glared at Jun Qingshang who was like a child with a darkened face. Sometimes he was really childish.


    "The princess is already pregnant for one and a half months, and her pregnancy looks very stable. She should be fine, don''t worry, your highness." The Imperial Physician''s words made Jun Qingshang heave a sigh of relief.


    This was also Yun Ruoleng''s first time getting pregnant, he knew very little, so he naturally had to ask about it. Hence, he got Peach Blossom to bring a chair over, and everyone listened on how to treat pregnant women.


    Yun Ruoleng heard the buzzing sound in his head as he listened to all the stuff, especially the fact that he had to drink the Body Nourishing Medicinal Solution every night.


    "If you want some poison, can you not drink it?" Yun Ruoleng looked at the imperial doctor in anticipation. Fortunately, the imperial doctor nodded his head, and although the answer was different from what he had imagined, the result had already been reached.


    Jun Qingshang remembered all the things he needed to pay attention to. Although he was very dissatisfied with one thing, for the sake of the fetus'' health, he could only endure.


    The Regent¡¯s Mansion never reported any worries, and just like this, they flew into the palace as if they had grown wings. After hearing the happy news, she put down the scissors in her hand and said, "Ride, Regent¡¯s Mansion!"


    Little Emperor naturally found out that his wife had left the palace. Thus, Little Emperor, who had long wanted to leave the palace to play, followed his wife to Regent¡¯s Mansion with heavy gifts.


    After Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang finished listening to the pregnant women''s warning with much difficulty, they heard a report that the Empress and the Emperor had arrived. The two of them looked at each other, and Jun Qingshang quickly stood up. He instructed Peach Blossom to take care of Yun Ruoleng, and brought a group of people to welcome him.


    Yun Ruoleng felt that this was impolite, and would cause trouble, so he did not care about Jun Qingshang and went to receive him. His wife was an extremely amiable old lady. Seeing Yun Ruoleng rushing over to welcome her, she immediately had a sullen face as she was stopped by someone. "Little girl, why did you run out here so quickly?"


    "Your daughter-in-law is just pregnant, not a sedentary person. You don''t have to worry about that, and pregnant women should walk around a lot." Yun Ruoleng was blessed by the empress dowager, but was stopped by her.


    "Just come out. You don''t need to do all these useless things in the future. What''s the use of saluting someone with a big stomach!" Aren''t you afraid of hurting your children? "


    Yun Ruoleng could not help but laugh. This family had been so careful of her, treating him as a vase, afraid that he would break into pieces. But how could he be so weak? Jun Qingshang hugged Yun Ruoleng from behind and laughed at his wife: "Mother is not standing at the door, it''s windy outside."


    "Yes!" Right! "Yes!" The empress dowager reacted and hurried inside. "Don''t let this pregnant woman catch wind. It''s not good if she gets cold and takes medicine."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, she naturally knew this logic, and wasn''t the imperial physician here? Nothing will happen.


    Only then did the empress dowager notice the imperial physician, and as if she had thought of something, she replied, "His Excellency Shang''s medical skills are exceptional, so you don''t need to go to the imperial hospitals in the next few months. After all, only the Regent and Consort Wang are pregnant right now.


    Yun Ruoleng felt that he was about to become a national treasure. From the moment the empress dowager entered the Regent¡¯s Mansion, she had been discontented with all kinds of things in the prince''s mansion. The little emperor was also extremely excited, and after seeing that Jun Qingshang had been pulled out by the empress dowager to settle some matters, he ran over to Yun Ruoleng''s side and touched her flat stomach.

 C211

    "I still need to wait for seven to eight months!" Yun Ruoleng smiled gently and said, "Your Majesty can''t wait any longer?"


    "Mmm mmm mmm, since I was a child, I''ve always sat on the highest seat. No one has ever played with me, it would be different if I had an imperial brother." Jun Rushi''s beautiful eyes flashed with a bright light: "We will take him to make trouble and teach him how to find trouble for royal uncle."


    "Your Majesty ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched a few times, he was afraid that this brat was trying to take revenge on Jun Qingshang!


    The little emperor made a silent gesture towards Yun Ruoleng, then walked out while smiling with his hands behind his back. Yun Ruoleng slapped her forehead, Peach Blossom immediately became nervous and went up to check: "Miss, what are you doing?"


    "In the future, take your child and leave the emperor''s side. Otherwise, we''ll be finished if we bring him along." Yun Ruoleng pulled Peach Blossom and muttered softly, "This kid is definitely not a naive person!"


    This was the first time Tao Hong saw someone evaluating the Emperor in this way, and couldn''t help but cover Yun Ruoleng''s mouth, and said: "Miss, let''s not talk about this anymore. If anyone hears about it, it''ll be a death sentence for the head."


    Yun Ruoleng waved his hand nonchalantly. If he was that easy to kill, why would Jun Qingshang even bother doing that? Moreover, if Jun Qingshang found out about this, he would definitely not let the child take a look at him.


    After Jun Qingshang and the empress dowager finished discussing the matters, they returned to the main hall. The empress dowager then looked at Yun Ruoleng as if he was a treasure. Jun Qingshang helped Yun Ruoleng to sit down, and Peach Blessing quickly left the room. The little emperor hopped in from the outside, and upon seeing that the empress dowager and Jun Qingshang were present, he quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart. "We had specially sent someone to deliver a lot of supplements, I hope our royal brother grows up to be more healthy."


    "This subject thanks Your Majesty for his good intentions." Jun Qingshang looked at Jun Rushi with a smile that was not a smile.


    Jun Rushi cleared his throat, "There''s no need to thank me, this is all because of sister-in-law."


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head helplessly. The empress dowager smiled and took a sip of her tea, then continued to discuss with the nanny beside her about something.


    The empress dowager and Jun Rushi had sent a lot of things over, and even talked a lot, especially the empress dowager, she was not willing to let go until Yun Ruoleng was a little tired. Yun Ruoleng silently sighed in his heart, luckily the two of them were going to enter the palace, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to stay here everyday and cause trouble.


    After the person sent him off, Jun Qingshang personally supported Yun Ruoleng back, muttering as they walked: "If this child was a girl, she would definitely be as beautiful as you."


    Yun Ruoleng rolled her eyes at him. "Your highness doesn''t like boys?"


    "Boys collect money from their parents!" Jun Qingshang let out a light snort, and stared at Yun Ruoleng''s stomach for a long time: "If it''s a boy, send him to the army camp when he''s three years old."


    "You!" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes were wide open as he looked at him in disbelief. He had already started to despise others even before he was born. Wouldn''t he be even more so if he was born?


    Jun Qingshang didn''t like boys, which made Yun Ruoleng feel a little guilty. Of course, it was only for a short period of time, she thought that if the child was really born, he wouldn''t do this.


    After all, he was still the child''s father. No matter what, he would not be so heartless! Yun Ruoleng''s mood improved a lot with this thought, but he was still unable to resist the strong drowsiness.


    Many people in the capital knew that Yun Ruoleng was pregnant. In order to curry favor with Yun Ruoleng, many people had given him gifts, and because Yun Ruoleng was pregnant, he was ordered to rest in his Water Spirit Pavilion. Yun Ruoleng was bored and could only meditate in his room, absorbing the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.


    It was unknown whether it was due to her pregnancy or not, but she had been absorbing spiritual energy for several days without any signs of her cultivation rising, and the spiritual energy that she had absorbed had disappeared without a trace. The walls between the Swastika and Regent¡¯s Mansion were opened, and Yun Ruoleng walked from the backyard to the Swastika with doubts in his heart. The interior of the Swastika still slightly changed. When Yun Ruoleng stepped inside, a thick wave of spirit energy assaulted his senses, and he felt that every cell in his body had been stretched out.


    "You''re back?" Black Robe stood at the end of the long corridor with a book in his hand.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded, and slowly walked behind him. His gaze landed on the book he was reading: "I have something to ask Mister."


    "Are you trying to tell me about the pregnancy?" Black Robe raised his head from the book, and looked at Yun Ruoleng with unfathomable depths in his eyes. After a long while, he opened his mouth and asked: "How did the child react?"


    "I have absorbed a lot of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, but my cultivation has not changed. Can you explain it to me?" Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, the doubt in his eyes becoming stronger.


    Black Robe''s sinister face was a little strange, his unfathomable eyes sweeping across Yun Ruoleng''s face: "This child is probably not a mortal, he was probably born into the Foundation Level!"


    "Huh?" Yun Ruoleng cried out in alarm, her watery eyes staring at her own stomach in a strange manner. Was she supposed to be happy or cry!


    Black Robe pursed his lips. "Don''t worry. This pregnancy will definitely go smoothly."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, then bid farewell to Black Robe and walked towards the Regent¡¯s Mansion. Black Robe stood on the porch and watched as she disappeared. He then took out a piece of jade from his clothes. After looking at it for a long time, he returned it to his pocket.


    When Yun Ruoleng returned to the Water Spirit Pavilion, Jun Qingshang was already standing at the door waiting for her. When he saw Yun Ruoleng coming back with his head lowered, he immediately went forward and grabbed her hand to carefully examine her body. Other than being in a bad mood, she was not injured.


    "Why didn''t you bring a maid along when you left?"


    "I''m going to die." Yun Ruoleng lowered his head, his dejected look making Jun Qingshang think that he had been bullied.


    "He bullied you?"


    Yun Ruoleng raised his head and laughed unhappily: "Why is he bullying me? He is more like an elder to a junior to me. "


    As Yun Ruoleng thought about the scene of the first time he saw Black Robe, his small face couldn''t help but sink. This person was very strange, but his ferocious appearance didn''t scare him, but instead made him feel a sense of familiarity.


    Jun Qingshang held Yun Ruoleng, and said while walking towards the Water Spirit Pavilion: "I feel that the black robe is extremely strange, you shouldn''t interact more with him in the future, I am worried."


    When he returned to the Water Spirit Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng was placed on a soft couch. Jun Qingshang sat on the edge of the couch, holding onto the brush with one hand while using the other to support his head. After thinking for a while, he drew a tree on the paper and Jun Qingshang sat at the side reading a book.


    Inside the Prime Minister''s Mansion, Yun Yi and Luo Yifan were playing chess. The two of them were very handsome, one was gentle like jade while the other was gentle like jade. Both of them were wearing white, but their auras were completely different.

 C212

    "I heard that Seventh Sister of yours is pregnant?"


    "Isn''t cousin close to the prince? What? "You don''t know?" Yun Yi took a sip of tea and chuckled: "I should also go take a look at that girl."


    Luo Yifan sneered, "Are you afraid of losing and running away first?"


    "How could I lose to you when it''s a contest of swords?" Yun Yi raised his eyebrows, "You know you want to lose, but why are you playing with me?"


    "You ¡­" Luo Yifan paused for a moment, then said with a straight face, "You''re hiding in the Prime Minister''s Estate. It''s time for you to go back and see that senior brother of yours."


    "Why does it have to do with him when you''re just talking about it?" Yun Yi frowned, as though he had thought of something, and sighed: "His purpose for coming back this time is most likely not simple!"


    "Because the power of the Lan family has not been taken over by Yun Shicheng recently, he probably wants to avoid the limelight!" Although Luo Yifan''s words were simple, Yun Yi was still able to discern that there was another sentence within his words.


    Since Yun Jun had returned, then Yun Yueyu would definitely not let Seventh Sister go. If he still did not go back, then Yun Jun would most likely make a move on after his foundation was stabilized.


    After getting rid of the First Madam, the Mrs. Luo also gave a lot of effort. Yun Yi was naturally worried, because Yun Ruoleng was still in the Regent¡¯s Mansion and wouldn''t be able to harm her that easily. It was just that she was pregnant right now, and the people who harmed her were even more.


    Yun Yi took his leave from Luo Yifan, and directly walked towards the Regent¡¯s Mansion. Yun Ruoleng had just finished painting a beautiful scene, and had not even had the time to color it before he was informed. Thus, Yun Ruoleng hurriedly ordered his men to remove the things and invited Yun Yi in.


    "Brother Yi, why are you so free to come today?" Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes, his gaze passing past his shoulder just in time to see a blue-clothed man who was holding onto a sword.


    "This is Xing Mo, my personal guard." Seeing her curiosity, Yun Yi introduced with a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded towards An Xiang who was beside him. After An Xiang understood what was going on, he took Xing Mo out.


    Yun Ruoleng invited Yun Yi to sit. "Brother Yi, you live in the Minister¡¯s Mansion now?"


    "Prime Minister Manor, but we have to return to the Minister¡¯s Mansion today. Yun Jun is back." Yun Yi said with a serious face.


    Yun Ruoleng played with the teacup in her small hands and laughed softly, "Yun Jun has finally returned from the military camp. It''s a pity that he wasn''t able to send First Madam on his final journey."


    "Aren''t you afraid of his revenge?" Yun Yi could not help but ask when he saw her relaxed appearance.


    Yun Ruoleng curled his lips in disdain, "He, Yun Yi, from a sixth rank Acupoint Charging disciple, can do anything to the Regent, who is second only to the Emperor? Brother Yi, don''t worry about me! "As for Madam Yin ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng paused, "She is the Prime Minister''s younger sister, how can she only have the status of an esteemed concubine?"


    Yun Yi looked at her with a slightly changed expression. "What does Leng Er think?"


    "Mrs. Luo did a meritorious job of investigating the case of the Holy Mother, and the Emperor''s reward hasn''t arrived yet. Although Yun Jun is the legitimate son, he still doesn''t dare to do anything to Mrs. Luo."


    "Stop!" Yun Shicheng''s movements at the door were not small, causing the streets and alleys to be aware of his movements, to the point that the entrance of the Regent''s Gate was filled with people coming to watch the show. When Yun Yi heard about it, he hurriedly walked out to stop the two guards.


    The two guards looked at each other, then respectfully cupped their hands and kept the swords in their hands. No shouting! Why haven''t you all dispersed? "


    The commoners were afraid of high ranking officials, and even if the guards were the smallest in terms of their Regent¡¯s Mansion, they were still afraid. Hearing the guards'' words, the surrounding people all scattered, but there were still some who were brave enough to watch clearly.


    Yun Yi walked out of the residence and looked at Yun Shicheng who was in a sorry state, his brows knitted: "Father didn''t you head to the morning assembly early in the morning and instead came to Regent¡¯s Mansion to stir up trouble, was it because the Duke had a good temper recently?"


    Because of Yun Ruoleng, Jun Qingshang''s temperament had changed a lot over the past few days, but it was not because he was good to everyone. For example, his father-in-law, he dared to directly attack them in the imperial court, how could he have a good temper! He was obviously trying to find another place to vent his anger.


    Unfortunately, Yun Shicheng was that venting barrel. When Yun Shicheng thought about the recent events, he felt a headache. In addition, the Lan family was no longer the Lan family from before. It was as Yun Ruoleng had said, if he did not release the Lan family from now on, it would affect the entire Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    After thinking it through, Yun Shicheng was prepared to go to his seventh daughter, but he didn''t expect that he wouldn''t even be able to step through the threshold to be his seventh daughter. When Yun Shicheng saw that the guards were even more respectful to Yun Yi than the Grand Scholar himself, he was immediately annoyed in his heart.


    "Go home!" As soon as Yun Shicheng finished speaking, he went to grab onto Yun Yi, not wanting him to dodge. After grabbing onto empty air, Yun Shicheng was immediately enraged: "What are you doing?"


    Yun Yi rolled her eyes at him, she didn''t even bother to respond to him, turned and walked into the Duke Palaces, and before she left, she did not forget to tell the guards, "Master Shang Shu, you are delirious, send someone to send him back to his residence alive!"


    "Yes sir!" The two guards looked at each other, and quickly rushed forward to chase Yun Shicheng away.


    Yun Shicheng was so angry that his whole body shivered as he pointed at Yun Yi''s back, but he could not say a single word. When the guards chased him away, he understood that he would not be able to see Yun Ruoleng anymore.


    When Yun Yi returned to the Duke Palaces, he immediately went to Yun Ruoleng''s Water Spirit Pavilion. Coincidentally, just as Yun Ruoleng was about to eat breakfast, he heard Yun Ruoleng ask him right after stepping into the gates of the Water Spirit Pavilion, "Did Brother Yi see anything interesting?"


    "Seventh Sister knows again." Yun Yi sat opposite of Yun Ruoleng and laughed bitterly: "I really don''t know what to do next."


    "If I exchange this method of yours for a change in Yun Shicheng''s mindset, I would be very happy." Yun Ruoleng turned around and said to Peach Blossom, "Prepare another set of tableware."


    "I''ve eaten." Yun Yi opened his mouth and stopped Peach Blossom''s actions, he then smiled at her politely: "I went to look at the door today, I''m afraid Yun Shicheng will not let this matter rest until he comes in."


    "Regent¡¯s Mansion are not that easy to enter." Yun Ruoleng ate gracefully as he ate: "In a while, go to the Prime Minister''s Estate and have the Prime Minister personally seek out him for an explanation. After all, your mother has suffered so much, if the Prime Minister doesn''t go to the women at the Minister¡¯s Mansion, he will underestimate her."


    Yun Yi originally had this idea, but after hearing Yun Ruoleng''s explanation, he laughed and said: "You''re thinking the same thing as me, I''ll go right now, you take your time to eat, eat more."


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng nodded and did not send him off.


    Peach Blossom could not help but tease Yun Yi after he left, "Only Young Master Yi can give you some pointers."


    Yun Ruoleng only smiled, he did not have much of an expression on his face, Peach Blossom could not understand what Yun Ruoleng was thinking.

 C213

    Inside the imperial study, Jun Qingshang and Jun Rushi were seated facing each other. The two of them had heavy expressions, as if they had met with some kind of trouble. Even Little De who was guarding the door could feel the heavy atmosphere inside.


    "royal uncle, the Lan family seems to be out of control." Jun Rushi supported her little head and thought for a moment, then said: "The hidden guards went to investigate the reason, because the Lan family could not stay in the capital anymore and went to the Jin City to look for King Jing. And recently, I found out about the matter of the Three royal uncle secretly recruiting people, they probably want to establish their own sect in the Jin City!"


    "Self-established sect?" Jun Qingshang scoffed, "Your thoughts are still too short-sighted. His ambitions are huge, and he is not just limited to establishing his own clan. Huang Teng''s death is most likely related to him."


    "By the way, Miss Yin has been found. I have ordered someone to hide her." "The person who found her said that even though she was unconscious, she wasn''t injured. She only knew of the sounds of fighting, and it seemed that these people weren''t ordinary bandits, because they wouldn''t keep quiet."


    Not a bandit? Jun Qingshang nodded his head, if it was a bandit, Huang Teng would not have died so miserably, and now that there was nothing left of him, one could imagine how much hatred this person had towards him. Jun Qingshang propped his chin up as his mind flashed with that enchanter-like face. His gaze darkened slightly as he said, "Send someone to watch Yue Ling''s every move. Yue Ling might have something big going on recently."


    "Yes!" Jun Rushi slapped his brain, "Huang Teng is dead, the position of crown prince is vacant, and the prince with the most potential is going to fight to the death with you, now there''s a good show to see."


    Jun Qingshang rolled her eyes at him as she continued, "First get rid of Jun Qingfeng and Jun Qingling. It''s better if Yue Ling knows how to take our lives as a joke."


    "Recruiting soldiers and horses should be done by changing their positions. Once This Emperor finds the evidence, I will let them guard the Royal Tomb!" Jun Rushi nodded seriously: "Royal Grandfather is lonely in Huang Ling, of course there will be people accompanying him."


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, that was a good idea, but how could he grab hold of Jun Qingfeng''s weakness? It was not that Jun Qingshang did not believe in his nephew''s words, it was that Jun Qingfeng was cunning, and was not easy to deal with. On top of that, Jun Rushi did not have any real power, and the actual power was basically in his and the two assistant ministers'' hands.


    Jun Qingshang held two-thirds of the Heavenly Enlightenment''s troops, so there was no need to be afraid of Jun Rushi, because the remaining third of the troops were in his own hands, the civil and military forces were separated, while the generals were on Jun Qingshang''s side, after all, the title of Heavenly Awakening War God was not earned for nothing. With the Prime Minister leading the group towards the emperor, and the Imperial Tutor leading the group toward Jun Qingfeng, it was only a matter of time before the official would start a war of words. The situation escalated to its climax, giving Jun Qingfeng and Jun Rushi headaches.


    "Send people to investigate this matter in secret first. This King will go investigate about Huang Teng." Jun Qingshang massaged the space between his brows, "In the near future, this duke will probably not enter the palace much. If there''s anything, bring a smart person to my residence."


    Hearing that, Jun Rushi curled his lips: "With Imperial Aunt, I won''t help Xuan''er anymore. royal uncle really values women more than friends!"


    "Minister¡¯s Mansion and the Lan family are enemies together. You must be careful." Jun Qingshang ignored Jun Rushi''s teasing, waved his hand, and left with a word of advice.


    The little Emperor looked at the empty doorway and sighed, "The royal uncle treats Imperial Aunt so well."


    The moment Jun Qingshang walked out of the imperial study, An Ying came over and greeted him. He whispered a few words into Jun Qingshang''s ear, and Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly knitted.


    "I haven''t seen the wangfei, only Young Master Yi." An Ying didn''t understand why Young Master Yi came out to look for the wangfei when it was obvious that Yun Shicheng was looking for her.


    Jun Qingshang nodded, he did not ask, and naturally did not give An Ying an answer. The master and the servant duo walked together.


    Yue Ling''s imperial city had been thrown into chaos for a long time, and the imperial court was in an even greater mess. However, from the beginning to the end, no one had seen the image of the Phoenix Diagram, which made those who suspected him to be deep in thought.


    "Something has happened to His Highness the Crown Prince in the Forest of Death, which is next to the two countries. This matter must have been done by Heaven."


    "Since Heaven''s Enlightenment agreed to send a lady to our country, they have no intention of becoming enemies with us!"


    "Just a deceptive trick!" Using an unfavoured girl to exchange for our princess, Heaven''s Enlightenment made a good plan! "


    "Everyone, who would benefit the most without the crown prince? The Heavenly Awakening Realm is a place with endless internal troubles, and they still have the mood to become enemies with us? "


    When these words were spoken, everyone shut their mouths. Although the Heaven''s Enlightenment seemed calm, the truth was that the waves had been raging inside for a long time. It was only the calm before the storm.


    Forest of Death was a place that neither country could control. The land was not under the jurisdiction of the two countries, but the bandits here were not fools. They could not destroy the friendship between the two countries for no reason, and this was not a good thing for them.


    After Jun Qingshang returned to the Regent¡¯s Mansion, he locked himself in the study room. There were several times when he visited the study room, but he was informed that he needed to discuss some matters with a few ministers.


    Jun Qingshang, who had always accompanied Yun Ruoleng, arrived at the Water Spirit Pavilion in the middle of the night for the first time. When he entered the door, he saw Yun Ruoleng sitting on the soft couch, holding onto his head with one hand.


    Jun Qingshang took a deep breath. He really wanted to take her on the spot, but when he thought about how she was pregnant, he had no choice but to endure it. He sat by her side and pulled her into his embrace.


    "The child said he misses you." Yun Ruoleng then twisted the hair that was on Jun Qingshang''s shoulders and wrapped it around his finger: "Has Your Highness met with any trouble?"


    "The boy said he was sleepy." Jun Qingshang chuckled as he held her horizontally and gently placed her on the bed: "Don''t be distracted by other matters, you still need to rest even if you don''t want to sleep with your child."


    "Qinghu, I actually have a way to solve the Huang Teng murder case."


    Yun Ruoleng loosened the hair on her hands, then pulled Jun Qingshang who was about to leave: "I want to fight alongside you, not live hiding under your wings. I am not a pampered young lady, but the Blessed Virgin, for I have the power of the divine. I have a responsibility to do this, too. "


    Yun Ruoleng''s words caused Jun Qingshang''s expression to become slightly serious. However, after thinking about it, he still shook his head and rejected her idea, pulling down his small hand: "Sleep first. We''ll talk about it tomorrow."


    With his words, she understood that there was nothing to talk about anymore, so Yun Ruoleng did not give up. The morning of the next day, she found a pen and wrote down a series of things on a white paper. After writing it down, she passed the paper to An Yue and had him deliver the things into his hands.

 C214

    The moment Jun Qingshang held onto the letter, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. Looking at the contents inside, he threw the official who was discussing the matter down and ran into Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned against the vine and ate the sour plum cake he had brought over from the kitchen. The sour and sweet taste was really suitable for a pregnant woman like her to eat, so she couldn''t help but eat two more pieces.


    "Is the manor on fire, or is something wrong?" Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes and asked.


    Looking at the woman who was leaning on the chair leisurely, Jun Qingshang smiled gently and waved to the servant to leave first.


    "This King misses you."


    Jun Qingshang slowly walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and squeezed onto the imperial concubine''s chair with her. He extended his arm and pulled her into his embrace, "How does Ruo Er want this to reward you, this king?"


    "How does Your Highness want to reward me?" Yun Ruoleng''s fingers coiled around his hair as she laughed in an extremely good mood, "The child said that he wanted father to accompany him more."


    "Then we''ll do as the Canton Princess says." Jun Qingshang rubbed Yun Ruoleng''s head, the corners of his eyes smiling. "This king will discuss it with the ministers, I will accompany you for lunch."


    "Yes!" "My lord." Yun Ruoleng waved his hand, signalling that he could leave. How could Jun Qingshang leave so easily?


    Jun Qingshang lightly kissed her pink lips before leaving in satisfaction. Yun Ruoleng was slightly startled, and before she could say anything, Jun Qingshang had already disappeared from the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    When they returned to the study room, Jun Qingshang had a light smile at the corner of his mouth. His expression was completely different from before.


    Jun Qingshang sat on the seat and picked up the teacup beside him. He took a light sip and said, "Royal Concubine has given everyone an idea: to send someone to go to the Yue Ling and help them investigate this matter."


    "Your Highness, this matter is inappropriate. There is originally a gap between the Heaven''s Opening and the Yue Ling due to this matter. If you were to go ¡­"


    "You''re wrong." Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, "It is because of the estrangement between us that we are sent there."


    "Your Highness is right, but who would be more suitable?"


    "Exactly! This subject does not think it is appropriate for anyone to go at this time. "


    "I don''t think this method is feasible!"


    All of the ministers started to talk back and forth, and the study room immediately erupted into commotion. Most of them did not support this strategy, and Jun Qingshang looked slightly cold as he slapped the table with one hand while holding his head, and watched them refute nonstop.


    After an unknown period of time, the various officials all stopped and subconsciously looked at Jun Qingshang.


    "Finished?" Jun Qingshang asked in an indifferent tone: "Do you have a solution?"


    "This ¡­" Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.


    Jun Qingshang shot a cold glance at them and instantly frightened all of the officials who were kneeling down and did not dare make a sound.


    The atmosphere in the room became heavier and heavier. Jun Qingshang asked in a low voice: "There''s no other way? This king believes that the Prime Minister''s son, Luo Yifan, can become an official and with Yun Yi''s assistance, the two of them will go together. "


    "My son and Yi''er are young and reckless. I''m afraid they won''t be able to take on this responsibility. In addition, this matter concerns our relationship. If someone so young were to go, they would feel that we''re not sincere enough."


    The Prime Minister stood at the side and did not say a word. When Jun Qingshang had just finished speaking, he retorted, "The Grand Preceptor has a good tongue that travelled the four seas. When the late emperor ascended the throne, he used his knowledge and his good tongue to help the late emperor stabilize the situation."


    "The two of them have to do this." Jun Qingshang''s attitude was firm, "Yun Yi is the Martial Alliance Master. With his skills and connections, it is most suitable to investigate this kind of case."


    "Luo Yifan is an expert in both martial and martial arts, and is even more meticulous in his thinking. He can even take down a case that the Ministry of Justice can''t solve, and now that the Grand Preceptor''s been out on a tour, it can''t be any better."


    "This ¡­"


    "The Forest of Death is indeed not a good choice. The two of them both have high-level martial arts skills, so going there would be safer for This King." Jun Qingshang''s words made many people nod their heads, with such meticulous thoughts, everyone started to admire Jun Qingshang even more.


    When Jun Qingshang returned to the Water Spirit Pavilion, she originally wanted to have a good time with her little lovely wife. However, she did not expect Yun Ruoleng to be tired and fell asleep early, so she could only shake her head helplessly and enter the Imperial Palace.


    Seeing him, Jun Rushi laughed: "Has there been any progress in royal uncle?"


    Jun Qingshang nodded slightly, then shook his head: "I have not made any progress, but I do have a way to solve this problem."


    "What method?" Jun Rushi looked at Jun Qingshang curiously.


    Jun Qingshang smiled, and explained the method Yun Ruoleng came up with. Jun Rushi''s eyes slightly lit up: "Royal Aunt is amazing, you can even think of a method like this."


    "Indeed. The relationship between Heaven''s Enlightenment and Yue Ling could be slowed down as long as it was delayed. After all, when two nations were at war, it was the citizens who were suffering. Your royal sister-in-law did help us solve this problem. " Jun Qingshang laughed lightly, he suddenly thought of something, and furrowed his brows, "What clues can we get from Jincheng?"


    The smile on Jun Rushi''s face stiffened, he shook his head in distress: "The person who went back has not returned, I wonder how he is."


    "The people who were sent did not return?" Jun Qingshang''s face turned ugly, if he did not return, then it would be a big matter.


    Jun Rushi shook his head: "The first batch of people that went with Jun Qingfeng have returned, but the people we sent with you did not come back, there must have been something that was delayed."


    Jun Qingshang did not speak up to reply. After his gaze landed on Jun Rushi''s face for a long time, he sighed, "If we meet this kind of situation, the Emperor should send more people over instead of sending groups of people. Who knows how it will be during this period of time?"


    Jun Rushi thought that this was also true, and the little emperor, who was slightly slower than him, finally reacted, asking others to quickly investigate more about those people.


    After that, the uncle and nephew went to the Ci Ning Palace, but at this moment, within the Regent¡¯s Mansion area, they found out that Yun Yi, who had been sent to Yue Ling Nation, was sitting in his courtyard with a troubled expression, staring at Yun Ruoleng.


    "I''m not going."


    "Big brother Yi, you really can''t handle this matter." Seeing his determined look, Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly, "This is something that Young Noble Luo sought me out for, although I thought of the way, but he arranged all the personnel, even if you want, you can''t find me, your sister."


    When Yun Yi heard her, he immediately stood up, her jade-like and warm face revealed a trace of anger: "Whatever he said, you agreed, I haven''t even settled the matters between father and mother, and you are letting me leave, didn''t you let me take the chance?"


    "Mrs. Luo likes to play around. Since we have already left the Minister¡¯s Mansion, what do we have to worry about?" Yun Ruoleng took a sip of his tea unhurriedly, then waved his hand, signalling him to sit down. "I can''t leave, but since you''ve made a meritorious service here, it''s different.

 C215

    Yun Yi was not a fool, hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, he understood what was going on, and nodded: "Okay, when do we set off?"


    Yun Ruoleng put down the teacup: "You and Young Master Luo should discuss this. The earlier the better."


    "Then I''ll make a trip to the Prime Minister''s Estate. While I''m gone, I''ll have to trouble my younger sister to take care of my mother." Yun Yi did not hide anything, he cupped his hands and left.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the tea leaves floating on the water surface quietly, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.


    A light flashed across Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, but only because it was too fast and no one noticed.


    Peach Blossom saw that Yun Ruoleng was distracted, so she waved her hand in front of Yun Ruoleng: "Miss, you should go back inside the house! It''s cold outside, so it''s easy to get cold. "


    Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, he casually placed the teacup on the table, then got up and went inside the room.


    Tao Hong looked at the servant girl who was standing far away, then the servant quickly went to clean up the table for Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng who had entered the room took off the cape on his body, lazily leaned on the imperial concubine''s chair, and folded his hands across his stomach: "Go to the study and pick out a picture book for me. I want to teach my child properly."


    Peach Blossom did not move, but rolled her eyes, "Miss, your son hasn''t even been with you for two months, why are you teaching him so early? "Besides, can you understand if you teach him?"


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng widened her phoenix eyes slightly, "How do you know if he''s a boy or a girl? To say that he''s the crown prince before he has even been born, what would happen to a princess? "


    "Princess is also as beautiful as Miss. Your highness will definitely be overjoyed." With a smile, Peach Blessed Body quickly flashed out of the room.


    Looking at Peach Blossom''s departing figure, Yun Ruoleng could not help but laugh out loud.


    Peach Red stood at the door and patted her chest. Only then did she calm her heart and pat her rosy lips in annoyance.


    "Do you owe it that much?" Peach Red had only been slapped twice before she was suddenly seen by An Ying. An Ying had always been at odds with Peach Red, and seeing her furiously slap his mouth, he could not help but ridicule her.


    "Shut up!" Peach Blossom coldly snorted, "You don''t need to care about my matters!"


    "If you owe me anything, I can help you with it." An Ying cupped his hands towards Peach Blossom. His courteous look made Peach Blossom clench her teeth, and her clear almond-shaped eyes widened.


    "Mind your own business!" Peach Blossom left huffily, but after not taking two steps, she seemed to have thought of something and stopped moving. She turned her head and glared at him, "You''re still waiting for me to report to him? It''s a pity that Miss has ordered that no one is required to report anything that does not involve the safety of the Prince! "


    An Ying shot a bland glance at her, and cupped his hands towards the door that he had yet to close. "Esteemed wangfei, this subordinate has something important to report."


    "Come in."


    After An Ying heard this, he snorted and walked into the room. Peach Blossom saw him walk in and immediately became dark.


    Tao Hong snorted in displeasure and turned around to enter the study room next door. She casually picked out two books on the desk and gave them to Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng and An Ying were sitting together and talking standing together, but Peach Blossom came in and the two of them did not even look at her and continued to talk.


    "The prince went to the palace to accompany the empress dowager for a meal. Presumably, he hasn''t seen his mother for a few days, so he''s thinking in his heart."


    Yun Ruoleng did not care about all these and waved his hand, "I''ll just eat anything in the palace. There''s no need to bring anything back for me."


    "Yes sir!" An Ying cupped his hands and retreated.


    Tao Hong saw him leave and immediately muttered unhappily: "Miss, why did you let him in?!"


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng shook her head snappily, her gaze landed on her hands, "Why do you need to lower yourself to the same level as him!"


    "But Miss, sometimes he really is too excessive!" Peach Red kept feeling wronged whenever she thought about the past. "He always bullied me for being so free, but you didn''t even help me."


    "Alright, alright, if An Ying bullies you the next time, I will definitely not let him off! It''s just that we have to finish the important matters before we can take care of him. If we miss out on something big, His Highness will be very sad. " Yun Ruoleng reached out his hand to pull the smoldering peach-colored red light, and tried to persuade her.


    Peach Blossom listened and then nodded happily. She didn''t immediately reply, but still nodded her head.


    Inside the Prime Minister''s residence, the moment Yun Yi stepped into the mansion, he was brought by the butler to the Prime Minister''s study. Inside the study, not only was there the Prime Minister sitting there, there was also Luo Yifan.


    "Why do Uncle and Cousin sigh?" Yun Yi looked at the two of them with a strange expression.


    Luo Yifan patted the seat beside him to indicate for him to sit down. Then, he opened his mouth and said, "I''ve already discussed this with my father. If you''re not willing to go, then we''ll think of something else."


    "I''ve decided to go. Cousin, you don''t have to worry about me." Yun Yi smiled at the Prime Minister, "Uncle doesn''t need to worry. Seventh Sister has already told me, after we finish this matter, I can ask for an imperial edict so Mother and Yun Shicheng can leave."


    "That''s fine too." The Prime Minister stroked his beard, "Your mother is almost out of it."


    Yun Yi nodded, then looked at Luo Yifan: "Cousin, when are you preparing to set off?"


    "Tomorrow morning, we will leave the city disguised as the chivalrous warriors. We cannot let anyone know." Luo Yifan''s gaze darkened slightly. "There must be a lot of people who secretly want to stop us, so we cannot reveal our identities."


    Yun Yi frowned, it seemed like this trip would be dangerous, so it would be easier to leave the Jianghu area. Yun Yi nodded his head and discussed his plan with the two of them before returning to his own courtyard.


    In the evening, Yun Ruoleng brought Peach Blossom to Zhu Lan Yuan. The young maid led Yun Ruoleng into a side hall, where they saw Mrs. Luo kneeling in front of a lotus flower drawing, a pious baptism.


    Yun Ruoleng ordered the servant girl to leave, but she did not go in.


    The people inside seemed to sense that there was someone outside, and slowly opened their eyes, their dull eyes looked towards the door, and when they saw Yun Ruoleng looking at her with a light smile, she curled her lips.


    "I came here today to ask Madam if she wants to leave the Minister¡¯s Mansion?" Yun Ruoleng went straight to the point and did not waste any more time talking to her.


    Mrs. Luo was slightly startled. After looking at her once, he sneered: "Princess, you want to chase me away?"


    "What I mean is that if Mrs. Luo doesn''t want to return to the Yun Palace, I can help you get rid of Yun Shicheng. "Of course, you can also stay here if you want after leaving." Yun Ruoleng felt that this matter could not be discussed between her and Yun Yi, so he could not force her if she did not want to.


    Mrs. Luo earnestly sized up Yun Ruoleng. Compared to the past Yun Ruoleng who had displayed his capabilities and edge, Yun Ruoleng was now even more beautiful. Under the light of the afterglow, there was a faint smile on her face, the misty beauty making it hard for people to shift their eyes away.


    Mrs. Luo suddenly became absent-minded as he watched.

 C216

    Yun Ruoleng was not anxious either, his gaze fixed onto her body. After the two of them looked at each other for a few seconds, Mrs. Luo finally spoke: "I want to leave."


    "As expected of the Prime Minister''s sister." Yun Ruoleng left after throwing down those words. Mrs. Luo was stunned, looking at her back view, he suddenly felt the joy of being saved by the heavens, and in that moment, his heart calmed down.


    When Yun Ruoleng walked out of the courtyard door, he told Peach Blossom: "Go and tell Cui Ying to welcome the Mrs. Luo well."


    "Yes sir!" Tao Hong replied as she turned around to look at Mrs. Luo who was still standing at the entrance.


    This girl was also a pitiful person. Fortunately, she had a kind heart, otherwise, the young miss would not allow her to stay in the prince''s mansion.


    By the time Jun Qingshang returned to the Duke Palaces, it was already dark. When he stepped into the Water Spirit Pavilion and saw that the light in Yun Ruoleng''s room had not been extinguished, the corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly.


    Yun Ruoleng was leaning on the window, discussing something with Peach Blossom. Hearing the noises coming from outside the courtyard, Yun Ruoleng pushed away Peach Blossom, and sat on the soft couch with his eyes closed.


    Jun Qingshang slowly walked to her side. Just as he wanted to reach out and hug her, Yun Ruoleng suddenly opened his eyes, a vicious look flashed past his eyes that made Jun Qingshang''s body stiffen.


    "What happened to Ruo Er?" Jun Qingshang regained his senses and stretched his hand out towards her forehead, but was dodged by Yun Ruoleng.


    "Does Your Highness have any way to let your esteemed concubine and husband leave each other?"


    The moment Yun Ruoleng''s question came out, Jun Qingshang immediately knew who it was. Laughing lightly, he said, "There is a way, but it''s a little troublesome."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, she also had a method, it was just that this method was indeed a little roundabout, and more importantly ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, his gaze falling upon Jun Qingshang''s body became colder and colder: "Your highness, you can''t be wanting Mrs. Luo to become your official wife, right?"


    "Why not?" Jun Qingshang stood up, hands behind his back, and said with his back facing Yun Ruoleng, "With her family background, it wouldn''t be too much if she were to become the legal wife. Furthermore, Yun Yi is also a legitimate legitimate legitimate son, so even though he can''t compare to Yun Jun, he used the name of the legal son, which is quite comfortable listening to him when he''s out in the world."


    "Big brother Yi won''t care about these things." Yun Ruoleng sighed, this was not a good idea.


    "Ruo Er, be at ease, I will take care of this." Jun Qingshang turned around, and rubbed his hand on her fluffy head. The beautiful eyes Charm raised: "The only thing Ruo Er needs to do now, is to take good care of himself and the child in his stomach."


    "In half a month, the princes will be coming back to celebrate the birthday of the Emperor. Many people are staring at the child in your stomach, so Ruo Er, be careful."


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, then his gaze darkened slightly: "Whoever dares to touch my son, I will definitely massacre his entire clan."


    Jun Qingshang poked her head: "Whoever dares to touch you, I''ll slaughter everyone in the clan. "Don''t worry, I''ll protect you and your daughter."


    Yun Ruoleng coldly snorted with arrogance: "That is a must!"


    The two of them had a much better relationship than before, it was so good that it made people jealous. No one saw the servant girl at the door with the red lacquer tray look on her face when she heard the conversation in the room.


    That night, Jun Qingshang coaxed Yun Ruoleng out of his room. An Ying had been waiting at the entrance for a long time, and when Jun Qingshang came out, he respectfully cupped his hands together and without waiting for him to speak, Jun Qingshang had already raised her hand to interrupt him. An Ying raised her head to look at the room that had a glimmer of light in it, nodded, and followed Jun Qingshang to Shang Mo Pavilion.


    Ever since Yun Ruoleng married into the Regent¡¯s Mansion, it had been a long time since Jun Qingshang came over. He pushed open the study door, and in a flash, a few masked men jumped down from the roof.


    "Your Highness, Young Master Yun Yi summoned all of the martial artists to enter the Prime Minister''s Residence this afternoon, and then left the capital amidst the crowd." An Ying swept a glance to the An Ying Guards outside, and said with an extremely serious expression, "It seems like we are still being followed, do we..."


    "That''s right, if Luo Yifan couldn''t solve this problem, he wouldn''t have the face to be the number one young master in the capital." Jun Qingshang paused, "Yun Yi is still Alliance Head Wu Lin."


    "This subordinate understands." An Ying felt that he was worrying too much, so he cupped his hands and continued, "The people the Emperor sent to Jincheng City were killed midway. It seems that it wasn''t Prince Jing''s men who did it, but the Lan family."


    "As expected of the head of the Four Great Clans, the moment he died he started to counterattack. I wonder if this Ren Family Head has the power to counterattack." Jun Qingshang sneered, "Finish all the people on the road and pave a path for the Emperor."


    "Yes sir!" When An Ying thought about this, his expression became slightly cold and his expression stiffened.


    Seeing him standing there with his hands cupped in front of him, Jun Qingshang lowered his eyes and asked: "Is there something else?"


    "..." "Nope." An Ying shook his head, he retreated two steps and turned to leave.


    Jun Qingshang looked at his retreating back and could not help but frown, and did not pursue the matter.


    Not long after An Ying left, a woman brought in a cup of tea. She then gently placed the teacup in front of Jun Qingshang and slowly retreated while holding the tray in front of her.


    Jun Qingshang was reading the imperial reports attentively, he didn''t know if the person was a man or a woman.


    The woman stood not far from Jun Qingshang for a long time, but did not see Jun Qingshang even touch the teacup. Her brows slightly knitted, and her pair of teary eyes looked at Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang did not even raise his head. After an unknown period of time, he put down the imperial report, and when he lifted the teacup by his side, he inadvertently saw a hint of pink. His expression slightly changed as he raised his eyes and stared coldly at the woman in front of him.


    "This servant is Jin Xiu. She is a servant of the King''s concubine." The lady had a pair of bright and beautiful beautiful eyes s, her delicate face somewhat similar to Yun Ruoleng''s.


    Jun Qingshang''s expression became colder and colder: "Since you are this servant, you should know what this servant should do.


    "But ¡­" Jin Xiu still wanted to speak, but was scared by Jun Qingshang''s cold gaze and did not dare speak.


    Jun Qingshang was no longer in the mood to drink tea after they left. He called An Ying in, and when they brushed shoulders, he couldn''t help but take another look at Jin Xiu.


    "Where did she come from?" Jun Qingshang said the moment he saw An Ying.


    These words caused the already doubtful An Ying to become even more confused: "This woman wasn''t summoned by the Duke?"


    "Do you think This King would casually find a woman to enter the study?"


    Jun Qingshang''s entire body was releasing cold air, the expression on An Ying''s face was strange as he looked at Jun Qingshang, and after a long while he opened his mouth and spoke: "Before she came in, she had your order badge. That''s why I let her in. "

 C217

    Jun Qingshang''s expression became uglier and uglier. If someone else did not arrange it, then how could someone so easily obtain his order badge?


    In order to not arouse suspicion, Jun Qingshang waved at An Ying. An Ying moved his head closer and after hearing a few words from Jun Qingshang''s ear, An Ying cupped his hands and left.


    Jun Qingshang no longer had the mood to read these reports. Closing the things on the desk, he got up and walked out of the study, while instructing, "Except for this king and the princess themselves, no one is allowed into the study!"


    "Yes sir!" With this order, An Ying began to patrol with all his might.


    When Jun Qingshang returned to the Water Spirit Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng was still sleeping soundly. Afraid of disturbing her, Jun Qingshang carefully laid down, but who knew that the moment he laid down, Yun Ruoleng had already turned around.


    In Duke Xian''s Palace in Yue Ling Country.


    The Yue Ling Emperor had a total of four sons, the other sons were born of either low level or handicapped. Now that the crown prince had passed away, there was no way Yue Ling without a future king.


    For the sake of avoiding suspicion, Huang Tu did not want to go out, but there were still people constantly coming to visit him.


    "Your Royal Highness, the Heaven''s Enlightenment has been prepared. When do we set out?"


    The secret guard looked to be in a hurry, Feng Tu narrowed his eyes: "Is everything done?"


    "Your Highness, don''t worry!" The black-clothed man''s face sank: "It''s just that there aren''t any movements from the Heaven Awakening. This really makes my subordinate suspicious."


    "What did the man say?" Huang Feng slightly raised his head, his almond-shaped eyes slightly narrowed, as if he was anticipating something.


    The man in black shook his head. "The people he sent did not return with a letter."


    It seems that I have been discovered. Jun Qingshang is indeed my opponent, if I am not discovered, then it would seem that he doesn''t take my opponent seriously.


    Seeing that Feng Tu''s expression was not good, he lowered his head and did not dare to speak. Feng Tu did not make things difficult for him, but just waved his hand: "Didn''t that little emperor Tian Qi have his birthday celebration?"


    "Next month''s fifteenth."


    "This King is tired of staying at the Yue Ling. Let''s go out for a walk."


    When Phoenix''s words came out, the black-clothed man couldn''t help but twitch his mouth: "Didn''t Your Highness just return from the Heavenly Awakening?"


    "That''s right!" Didn''t the crown prince just go to the Heavenly Awakening Realm to die? Shouldn''t I, as the younger brother, take a look and ask the heavens for an explanation? " Phoenix Diagram looked at the black-clothed man with a smile that was not a smile. If he wasn''t wrong, this imperial decree would enter his royal palace tomorrow.


    On the morning of the next day, Jun Qingshang carefully got up and prepared for the morning assembly.


    Yun Ruoleng, who was still unconscious, acted like a little kitten and whined, "What time is it?"


    "It''s still early, let''s sleep a bit more." Jun Qingshang stopped him from standing up and kissed her lightly on her forehead.


    Yun Ruoleng felt that he was unusually tired so he nodded his head.


    Only then did he stand up and carefully dress himself. In order to not disturb Yun Ruoleng''s rest, Jun Qingshang had already lowered his movement to its lightest.


    After exiting the room, Peach Blossom was standing at the door with a few servants waiting for Jun Qingshang. After Yun Ruoleng became pregnant, Jun Qingshang had forbidden Peach Blossom and the others entry at this time.


    "Today I asked Imperial Physician Shang to prescribe some medicine that will help in the recovery of one''s spirit. Last night, Imperial Concubine Wang didn''t sleep very comfortably." Jun Qingshang still couldn''t forget the uneasiness on her face when she entered the room. Although he didn''t know why she was unsettled, she didn''t want to say it so he didn''t ask.


    Her gaze landed on Jun Qingshang''s slightly exhausted face. "Your Highness''s complexion is so bad, could it be that you didn''t sleep well last night?"


    "I slept a bit late last night, so don''t talk about this with the wangfei." Jun Qingshang was afraid that Yun Ruoleng would be worried, hence he quickly ordered a ban to be put in place.


    Peach Blossom slightly smiled and nodded. Even if she didn''t tell the Miss, she would still be able to think of it, and she didn''t have to worry about it.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up, it was already late in the morning. The moment he woke up, he knew that Jun Qingshang had already left and had not returned since noon, so he couldn''t help but frown. There must be a lot of things happening recently, and it was normal for him to be busy, so Yun Ruoleng did not think too much about it.


    "Miss, you can''t go out!" An Xiang looked at Yun Ruoleng who was covered up as he frowned, reached out to block the door, and said with a heavy face: "The Prince said that the capital city is not peaceful recently, you cannot go out as you wish."


    "Something happened?" Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, after he understood the meaning of the words, his face immediately darkened: "Why didn''t you tell me earlier?"


    "This ¡­" An Xiang secretly cursed in his heart. Just a moment ago, he had almost forgotten the orders of the Duke, but now that the meticulous wangfei found out, he was afraid that he was going to cause a ruckus with the Duke.


    "Forget it, why don''t you tell me what happened outside." Yun Ruoleng took off the muslin bamboo hat on his head and said to Peach Blossom behind him, "Cui Ying has been busy organizing the matters at the back of the garden. Go outside and call for the three Zhen brothers."


    "Yes sir!" Peach Blessed Body, did not forget to give An Xiang a look when he left.


    An Xiang smiled awkwardly at Yun Ruoleng: "This servant isn''t sure either, the prince is back later, can you ask him?"


    "Then how much do you know!" An Ying''s guardians were Jun Qingshang''s left and right hands. Even if they did not know the specifics, they still had a rough understanding of the situation.


    Yun Ruoleng was not an idiot so he naturally understood this logic.


    An Xiang felt really bitter in his heart! He really wanted to slap himself a few times. Who asked her to talk about all these things? Add to that the sensitive personality of this wangfei, she''d become even more sensitive after her pregnancy.


    Just as An Xiang was praying that someone could help her, he heard the sound of weapons clashing outside the door.


    An Xiang''s expression sank as he looked Yun Ruoleng in the eye. His right hand held tightly onto the sword hilt on his left hand as he said, "Esteemed wangfei, you cannot leave."


    "Protect the wangfei!" An Yue''s ice-cold voice came from outside.


    Yun Ruoleng sat on the imperial concubine''s chair, holding his conical bamboo hat in one hand and knocking the small table with the other.


    An Ying, who was guarding Yun Ruoleng outside the door, took care of the assassin in a few moves.


    An Xiang heaved a sigh of relief after hearing no sounds outside. His gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng''s body as he asked suspiciously, "Are you not afraid, Consort Wang?"


    "Why would this wangfei be afraid of a trap laid down by the entire palace?" Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "What''s more, I''m someone who wants to stand with the Duke. If I''m scared by such a small matter, what qualifications do I have to stand with the Duke?"


    An Xiang thought about what Yun Ruoleng had said and felt that it made a lot of sense.

 C218

    "An Yue, what did you find out outside?" Yun Ruoleng swept a glance at the absent-minded An Xiang, and slowly asked.


    A black robed An Yue walked in from outside and cupped his hands towards Yun Ruoleng, "I did not discover anything that could prove my identity. I was holding onto a living person but did not want to commit suicide."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, as if he had already expected this situation, "Then let''s leave this matter for now. When the Prince comes back, let him see, and also let him take a look at the Prince''s location, it seems like there are places for the Prince''s guards to evacuate, so it''ll be an option for him. When he returns later, let him come over to Water Spirit Pavilion for a while."


    "Yes sir!" Although An Yue did not know what she meant by that, since she had said it, then he should carry it out immediately. With the assassination attempt on his consort, even without needing to say anything, the prince would immediately rush towards his Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Just as An Yue had thought, after Jun Qingshang was assassinated, he threw all the officials from the imperial study down and rushed towards the Regent¡¯s Mansion. On the way, he constantly reported to the An Ying Guards to confirm that Yun Ruoleng was alright.


    When Jun Qingshang returned to the Duke Palaces, he did not even give An Yue, who was guarding the entrance, a chance to speak. His hair was draped over his head and his face was covered with a sheet of denunciation.


    The atmosphere was a little awkward. In order to cover up his embarrassment, Jun Qingshang coldly snorted and walked toward the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Jun Qingshang had scolded An Yue earlier, but when he found out the reason why he was standing at the entrance, he scoffed coldly, and walked toward the Water Spirit Pavilion with a slightly awkward expression. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Peach Red and Cui Ying holding onto a painting, and Yun Ruoleng standing in front of the painting, holding onto a brush, handing it over to her with one hand.


    Hearing the footsteps behind her, she did not turn her head around, "I was just about to go out this morning when a group of people came. They did not have much skill, but they wanted to take my life, but unfortunately they were killed by His Highness'' people, and now they are lying in the yard. If His Highness has time, he will go and see who these people are."


    Jun Qingshang nodded, he would obviously investigate deeper.


    Since they had thought of ways to harm his woman, they should have planned on how they would die.


    Jun Qingshang did not say what he was thinking, but seeing that Yun Ruoleng had nothing to do, he went out to investigate.


    The moment they left, Yun Ruoleng slowly spoke out. "I have more or less done with the arrangement of the hidden guards for the Regent¡¯s Mansion. The two of you should carefully keep it.


    "Yes." After Tao Hong finished packing her things, she watched as Yun Ruoleng put down the brush and walked out. Tao Hong stuffed the things into Cui Ying''s hands and quickly followed: "Where is Miss going?"


    Yun Ruoleng did not reply her, but continued walking, Peach Blossom became anxious, and quickly walked in front of her to stop her: "Miss, there are still a few corpses outside, you are carrying the young prince, going out to meet some bad luck!"


    Yun Ruoleng sized her up carelessly: "What''s there to be unlucky about, I''m just going to take a look, I''m not doing anything else, it''s fine!"


    "Sigh!" "Miss ¡­" Peach Red was pushed to the side by Yun Ruoleng. Without waiting for Peach Red to continue speaking, Yun Ruoleng had already walked out. Peach Blossom hurriedly followed behind her with her eyebrows slightly knitted. She had a troubled expression on her face.


    Jun Qingshang stood at the entrance and looked down at the coroner who was examining the corpse. Hearing the footsteps, he turned his head and saw Yun Ruoleng slowly walking over.


    "Any gains?" Yun Ruoleng walked to her side and stood still, his gaze sweeping the courtyard once, his gaze landing on the right in front, and only speaking after a long while.


    Jun Qingshang reached out and pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, and let out a light sigh: "These people are Death Soldiers, they do not have anything that can prove their master''s identity. Adding to the fact that they dare to come to Regent¡¯s Mansion in the daytime, they probably do not want to go back."


    "That''s not right!" Yun Ruoleng''s expression turned cold: If what you''re saying is true, then this group of people are here to die. To be more precise, they are here to scout, then what do they want to do?


    This group of people were most likely just there to scout, so what did the owner of this group of people want to do?


    At first, Jun Qingshang thought of this result, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not possible. After being resolutely questioned by Yun Ruoleng, he could not help but suspect the true purpose of this matter.


    Jun Qingshang waved at the people in the courtyard. "There''s no need to check, just throw this group of people to the unmarked cemetery and spread the news of the Princess Consort''s assassination and injury."


    Although Yun Ruoleng didn''t know what Jun Qingshang''s words meant, she understood that it was for her own good. She didn''t ask any further, and rubbed her little head against his chest. Jun Qingshang clenched his fist tightly, his gaze landed on the top of Yun Ruoleng''s hair: "I will protect you well, you just need to rest in peace and nurture your baby."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. Just as she was about to shake her head and reject him, she heard a low voice from above her: "Right now, you are not one person, but two. You cannot be brave!"


    "Lord Qing ¡­" Yun Ruoleng swallowed all of his rejection words and softly sighed: "I understand."


    Many people had their eyes fixed on the Regent¡¯s Mansion, wanting to see the scene inside. Unfortunately, due to the assassination attempt on the wangfei and the Duke Palace''s guest, many of the people who wanted to curry favor with her were unable to display their skills.


    In the early morning, Yang Zi hurriedly rushed towards the Regent¡¯s Mansion with the gift box, but didn''t want to be stopped at the door. Yang Zi''s heart was very worried, and after getting someone to send the things into the residence, she gloomily left.


    He didn''t know if it was a coincidence or not, but the moment Yang Ziling turned around and was about to leave, she saw the princess of the Wind King Palace, Lan Yuzhu, carrying her things.


    Now that the Feng Royal Mansion didn''t have the imperial concubine and all the Steward of the Wind King''s Mansion had fallen into her hands, Yang Zi Zi originally looked at her with disdain but after seeing her arrogantly walk in front of her, she arrogantly raised her chin.


    "I''ll have to trouble little brother to report that the grand imperial concubine of the Wind King''s estate has come to visit the regent''s consort." The maid behind Lan Yuzhu said to the guard in a condescending manner, just like Lan Yuzhu.


    The guard wasn''t a fool. He sneered disdainfully at Lan Yuzhu as she introduced herself, "The wangfei thanks the guest for his recovery and doesn''t want to see anyone. Esteemed wangfei, please go back!"


    "My mistress came to see her with good intentions. Why is it that she doesn''t even see her?" The maidservants were overbearing.


    The guard was not someone to be trifled with, "My lady is the main wife of the regent, and this is the side wife of the king of the wind. Her status is several levels lower than my lady''s, so it''s up to my lady to come visit.

 C219

    "Exactly!" Yang Zi Zi agreed, "Big sister Yun is injured and still carrying a child, so naturally she''s not as free as some people."


    "You ¡­"


    "What about me? Am I wrong? " Yang Zi Zi wasn''t a fool who only looked and didn''t have brains. Someone who didn''t like her would absolutely not give her face.


    When the guards saw that Yang Zi Ling helped them speak up, their attitude towards Yang Zi Zi was much better. Some guards even specifically went in to report.


    As Yun Ruoleng listened to Peach Blossom talk about what had happened at the door, his expression turned cold, "She was so impatient to get in, I''m afraid it wasn''t that simple."


    "Does Miss want to see him?" Peach Blossom asked uncertainly.


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head slightly. She didn''t know if such a haughty and arrogant person was here to visit or to cause trouble, but if she let someone in, it was very possible that she would offend someone else.


    "I won''t see you!" Go out and tell Ling''er. "


    Peach Red understood that it was because she was afraid that Yang Zi Ling would be worried. So, her own family''s young lady let her go over to say that she was worried. With a sound of agreement, Peach Red left.


    An Yue flipped himself off the roof, and after his gaze swept around the doorway, he couldn''t help but frown. "Esteemed wangfei, Master told you to lie down to recuperate your womb. Why are you up again?"


    "What kind of womb is this!?" Yun Ruoleng rolled her eyes at him in annoyance, and only Jun Qingshang would think of something like that.


    The fetus was very stable. Nurturing it was naturally important, but he couldn''t always lie down.


    An Yue did not understand what Yun Ruoleng meant, but from her tone, it seemed that she was unwilling to lie down, and thought that she might have been tired after lying in bed for the entire morning, so she did not pursue the matter further: "Everything has been arranged, we''ve only been waiting for them to fall into our trap."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, he nodded his head to An Yue: "It''s been hard on you, take a rest first.


    "Yes." An Yue took a deep glance at Yun Ruoleng before leaving in a flash. After An Yue left, Yun Ruoleng started to calculate the time of his return.


    When the time for noon arrived, the sound of greetings immediately came from outside the Water Spirit Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng happily went forward to welcome them.


    Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng, who had just walked out of the door, with a shock in his heart. In a flash, he arrived in front of her, extended his hand to support her waist, which was as soft as a willow tree, and asked: "Why did you come out?"


    "The room was so stuffy that I came out to take a look when I heard the sound of you coming back." Yun Ruoleng smiled as he looked at the lightly smiling beauty in front of him, and was extremely glad that he had accepted the enchanter.


    Jun Qingshang lowered her head and pressed a kiss onto her pink lips: "From today onwards, you will walk around in the courtyard."


    "The prince is really generous!" Yun Ruoleng curled her lips, and her gaze landed on a plot of land. Her little face sank, little by little: "How can you go to such a small place? "No."


    "My beloved concubine, don''t be willful. The courtyard behind us is in the process of being built. We can''t go for a while." Jun Qingshang rubbed his hands on her head, "How about you wait for me to take a walk outside when I''m free?"


    That sounded good. Yun Ruoleng smiled as she nodded her head repeatedly, a thought flashed through her mind, "I heard that there is a big lake to the west of the capital called Brightmoon Lake. The lake''s surface is so clear that you can see the bottom, and the lake''s surface is shrouded in smoke.


    "I''ll listen to you." The world was vast, and pregnant women were the largest.


    Jun Qingshang was extremely satisfied with only Yun Ruoleng, so naturally, Yun Ruoleng was extremely happy. In order to be able to play outside, she had to cooperate very well with Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang were in the courtyard discussing where to go to play, while in the palace, the little emperor was also discussing with Little De.


    "Do you think Imperial Aunt was really assassinated?" The little emperor propped himself up using his hands to support his head as he laid on the table. When he thought about how the royal uncle was rushing back home so early in the morning, he couldn''t help but worry.


    Little De touched his chin, and seemed to be deep in thought as he replied, "I''m afraid the assassination of the wangfei was only a matter of injury."


    The little emperor nodded. According to the arrangement of the An Ying Guards in the Regent¡¯s Mansion, it would be impossible to succeed in the assassination that easily, and there was also the Regent Royal Consort who was not an ordinary person. She still had some skills.


    Jun Rushi said with a grave expression on his face, "Have Su Ning come over."


    Su Ning was Jun Rushi''s personal guard and also one of the people in charge of the imperial guards. When Little De heard that Jun Rushi was looking for Su Ning, he couldn''t help but be taken aback, but was met with a supercilious look from Jun Rushi.


    Little De''s heart trembled. He didn''t dare to delay as he quickly turned around and left.


    The little Emperor held his head and thought for a moment. When he thought about how Yun Ruoleng was only uninjured because he was assassinated, his heart calmed down. When he thought about his royal uncle''s methods, even the little emperor couldn''t help but shiver for the mastermind.


    Little De Zi quickly returned, followed by a blue-armored man. The man had an ordinary appearance, and it was difficult to recognize him from the crowd.


    In the evening, Yun Ruoleng sat in front of Ao Tian''s cage and helped him taste the food. Peach Blossom hurriedly ran into the courtyard and lowered her head to whisper a few words into Yun Ruoleng''s ear.


    Peach Blossom nodded, "He has already left for the prince."


    "Little Emperor, what''s going on now?" Yun Ruoleng rubbed his forehead. In order to not leave the courtyard, Yun Ruoleng could only sit in the courtyard and think.


    Inside the study room, Su Ning and a few of the secret guards stood beside Jun Qingshang respectfully.


    "This King''s Mansion does not need anyone else. Besides, the emperor must not lack people. It''s better to go back!" Jun Qingshang didn''t like it when Jun Rushi was concerned about him, so he was extremely unhappy about what Jun Rushi had done.


    Su Ning looked at Jun Qingshang with difficulty: "This subordinate doesn''t dare to disobey the emperor''s orders."


    "You dare to disobey This King''s orders?" Jun Qingshang''s face became even more unsightly, a vile aura instantly burst forth from his body, causing Su Ning to subconsciously take a step back, forcing himself to stand properly.


    "Your Highness!" Just when Jun Qingshang wanted to chase her away, An Xiang ran into the study in a hurry and bowed slightly, "Princess, since you said that this is a gift from the emperor, she will accept it, but the palace is even more dangerous than the Duke Palace, please take this person back."


    When the furious Jun Qingshang heard these words, the anger in his body instantly dissipated. His eyes were still as cold as ever as he looked at Su Ning.


    "This ¡­" Su Ning was in a really difficult position. Besides the Regent, there was one more person who could openly disobey the decree. Even the Prince Consort had dared to disobey the imperial decree.


    Su Ning did not dare to force him to stay, and left with his men.


    Only then did Jun Qingshang''s mood improve greatly. An Xiang finally heaved a sigh of relief, luckily the princess was smart and rejected the emperor''s good intentions. If not, he didn''t know what kind of trouble the prince and the emperor would cause.


    When Su Ning returned to report, even the little emperor did not dare to look into Yun Ruoleng''s eyes. When the little emperor heard that Yun Ruoleng had personally rejected the person he sent to, he stared at Su Ning thoughtfully.

 C220

    "Never." Su Ning also found it strange. When he went to the prince''s mansion, he was directly invited into the study by the regent without even looking at the corner of the princess'' clothes. The prince seemed to be guarding against something, but he couldn''t explain it clearly.


    Jun Rushi waved his hand: "We understand, arrange the people well."


    "Yes ¡­" If it wasn''t for the emperor, where would this subordinate have placed him? " Su Ning was confused. The Emperor''s calmness and calmness was somewhat shocking.


    Jun Rushi rolled his eyes and said: "We still need someone by our side! "Since they don''t want it, I''ll take it myself."


    "This subordinate understands!" If Su Ning still did not understand, she would probably be despised by Jun Rushi. In order to not let the little Emperor despise her, Su Ning cupped her hands together and quickly disappeared from the imperial study.


    Jun Rushi held the brush in one hand and supported his head with the other, pondering what Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng were talking about. At this time, Xiao De Zi hurriedly ran in and handed over a thumb sized bamboo tube to Jun Rushi.


    Jun Rushi opened it doubtfully and took out the letter from the bamboo tube. His expression changed slightly as he said, "Go and invite the Regent, Prime Minister and Imperial Tutor to enter the palace."


    "Yes sir!" Little De Zi rarely saw the little emperor so excited, so he didn''t stay any longer and quickly sent for the three ministers.


    Within the Water Spirit Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng was currently discussing the emperor''s plans with Jun Qingshang. An Ying hurriedly entered while holding a letter, and sat up from Jun Qingshang''s embrace, as he looked at An Ying who had a serious expression on his face with suspicion: "What happened?"


    "To reply to Princess Hua-Yang is not a big matter, but an urgent matter." An Ying passed the letter to Jun Qingshang: "The Yue Ling has sent a message. The Yue Ling King is preparing to send the Monarch Xian, Feng Tu, to come to my country to congratulate the Emperor."


    "The Yue Ling has just died and the crown prince sent a King Xian? What kind of farce is this?" Yun Ruoleng looked at the contents of the letter, and could not help but mutter.


    It was originally an unintentional sentence, but after Jun Qingshang heard it, he couldn''t help but frown, and immediately stood up and walked out. Yun Ruoleng rubbed her chin and knew where he was going without even asking her.


    The moment Jun Qingshang stepped out of the Water Spirit Pavilion, he saw the butler hurriedly walking towards him. Upon seeing Jun Qingshang, he hurriedly bowed, "Your Highness, the emperor wishes to invite you to the imperial study for a discussion."


    Jun Qingshang began to walk forward, but did not reply the butler. The butler raised his head suspiciously, not knowing if the Duke had heard or not. Seeing him in a daze, An Ying quickly pulled on his clothes: Butler, why aren''t you going to prepare the carriage?


    "Oh, yes! "Yes!" The butler came back to his senses and walked quickly towards the backyard. As he walked, he instructed the servant behind him, "The prince is walking in a hurry, it''s too slow to use a carriage. Go and prepare a horse for me."


    The butler had watched Jun Qingshang grow up, so he was clear about his every move. Hence, the attendant felt that Jun Qingshang''s words made a lot of sense, and quickly ran towards the stables at the back.


    Jun Qingshang arrived at the entrance of the Duke Palace just in time. As soon as Treading snow saw him, it started to run in his direction, not caring at all whether the servant who was holding it could run past it.


    An Ying looked at the servant who was following him through the snow and could not help but think of what Yun Ruoleng had said that day. At this moment, it was very fitting and, when he thought about it, he let out a "puchi" laugh.


    Jun Qingshang turned his head and coldly glared at An Ying. Knowing that he had lost control of himself, he hurriedly cupped his hands and took a step back.


    Traceless Snowsteps stood under the stone steps of the gate, looking at his own master, happily raising his front hooves and letting out a screech.


    Jun Qingshang reached out and took the reins from the servant''s hands, then turned and sat on the horse''s back. Without waiting for An Ying to follow him, he rode the horse and immediately left.


    An Ying was shocked. Looking at the horse that came late, his heart darkened, this horse of his was also a good horse that was hard to come by.


    An Ying rode his horse and gave chase. By the time he had caught up with the palace gate, Jun Qingshang had already entered the royal study.


    Jun Rushi sat in the imperial study and scratched his head in distress, looking out occasionally. The time for an incense stick to burn had passed, Jun Qingshang had finally arrived, and as if he had seen his lifesaver, he directly pounced towards Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang stretched out his palm and pressed it against the head of Jun Rushi who was rushing over: "Is the Emperor seeking protection?"


    Even though Jun Rushi is small, his heart isn''t small. His self-esteem was already extremely strong a few years ago, and now it''s even stronger. Hearing Jun Qingshang''s sarcastic tone, he coldly snorted and left his side. I am not afraid of any visitors! "


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows. The depressed mood just now instantly disappeared as he stood by the side with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "This king favors you."


    "¡­" Jun Rushi coughed lightly. Anyone who spoke would say that if something really happened to him, he really did not know what to do. Jun Rushi thought, and his gaze involuntarily turned to look at Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang felt a headache coming on. After the uncle and nephew pair spoke for a while in the imperial study, Xiao De Zi walked in to pass on their message to the Imperial Tutor and the Prime Minister. Jun Qingshang and Jun Rushi quickly put away the smile on their faces and stood opposite to each other in all seriousness.


    The Imperial Tutor and the Prime Minister walked in and paid their respects to Jun Rushi before bowing to him. Only after the first round of salutations did they begin the main topic of the day.


    Jun Rushi sat in front of the desk with a straight face and bright eyes: "Does royal uncle know why he''s here this time?"


    "When the Yue Ling Prince died, the King of Losers immediately went to heaven. There were only three reasons why he didn''t care." After Jun Qingshang sorted out his thoughts along the way, he stood in the imperial study room once again with an exceptionally calm mood.


    The little emperor''s eyes lit up. His family''s royal uncle had found the reason, that meant this matter had been prepared. However, Jun Qingshang did not speak in a hurry. Instead, he coldly swept the little Emperor with his gaze, "Your majesty should think it over carefully, this subject will do as you say."


    The little Emperor''s expression instantly turned gloomy. "I only thought that they were here to cause trouble."


    "The Phoenix Diagram is the only healthy family in the entire age range of the Yue Ling, so I believe that the Yue Ling Emperor would definitely set his sights on him. But because he is from an influential family, his mother''s power is enormous, so the Yue Ling Emperor has long suspected him. The little emperor explained in all seriousness, but Jun Qingshang glared at him coldly.


    "Your majesty is overthinking it!" The Prime Minister shook his head as his gaze swept across Jun Qingshang''s face, "The Yue Ling is currently plagued both internally and externally, and they do not wish to become enemies with us. Naturally, they will not cause any problems at this critical point in time.


    "And also the will of the Yue Ling Emperor." The Imperial Tutor clasped his hands towards Jun Rushi and Jun Qingshang, "The death of the crown prince is something that the Emperor of Yue Ling has most likely known of.

 C221

    "King Leisurely is indeed different from the King Leisurely that I have seen."


    Jun Rushi frowned slightly, "Since you''re here, then let''s do our duty as the host using the way we treat our guests."


    "Your Majesty''s words are reasonable." Jun Qingshang nodded in satisfaction. He comforted the mature and steady Jun Rushi.


    In the Duke Palaces, Yun Ruoleng had called a few nanny s over to discuss the issue of reproduction. Although nanny was already a woman, his face was still shallow, and he was asked about by a 21st century person, all of them staring at their red faces, not daring to say too much.


    Yun Ruoleng thought that they were afraid of him and kept on making them relax, but he realized that his question after question made their faces turn even redder, and their speech became even more difficult.


    Yun Ruoleng stared at the few nanny s in disbelief, and after a long while, he sighed, and waved his hand: "All of you can leave!"


    "Yes sir!" Yun Ruoleng''s words were like a pardon, when the nanny heard it, they immediately got up and ran over, leaving Peach Blossom, whose face was completely red, standing beside her.


    Tao Hong used her cold handkerchief to cover her face, and didn''t dare meet Yun Ruoleng''s gaze.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, as if he had found a new continent, and reached out to grab Peach Blossom''s wrist.


    Just as he laid down, Yun Ruoleng was suddenly woken up by An Xiang. She frowned, and looked at An Xiang in puzzlement: "What happened?"


    "It''s not really that big of a deal. It''s just that after the Mrs. Luo returned and got entangled by Minister Yun, the two of them are now at the entrance of the Duke''s Mansion and there are already a lot of people gathered outside." An Xiang lowered his head, not daring to look at Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng rubbed his glabella, not paying too much attention to him. After listening to An Xiang''s report, he sighed helplessly and got up while An Xiang helped him put on his clothes.


    The moment Yun Ruoleng got up, Cui Ying hurriedly walked in and pulled An Xiang aside: "Miss, you cannot go! If you go out and say that you are injured in bed, doesn''t that mean that you are letting the world know that you are not injured? "


    Yun Ruoleng''s actions paused slightly, his gaze landed on Cui Ying''s anxious face, and his expression sank slightly. "I understand."


    Wasn''t Yun Shicheng making trouble at the door just to get him to leave? He didn''t know who his father was under orders, but if he were to really go out, he was afraid that someone would learn of the situation and become even more arrogant.


    Yun Ruoleng sat back on the bed. "Aren''t there guards in the Duke Palaces? Let the butler arrange for Yun Shicheng to be chased out of this wangfei! "


    "This servant will go right away!" Although An Xiang was a little mischievous, he was, after all, a person who grew up within An Ying''s guard.


    After An Xiang left, Cui Ying then spoke out: "Young miss is also tired, let''s rest for a while first!"


    "Where''s An Yue?" Yun Ruoleng did not answer Cui Ying. Instead, he walked around the room: "Where did An Yue go today?"


    "The prince has sent him to set up the formation diagram of the manor, so he won''t be able to return for some time." Cui Ying half squatted and took off the shoes on Yun Ruoleng''s feet, then took off her jacket for her. Yun Ruoleng did not refuse and sat on the bed, allowing Cui Ying to cover her with a blanket.


    After everything was done, Cui Ying slowly withdrew himself. Yun Ruoleng leaned on the bed, her almond-shaped eyes half-closed as she thought about the scene outside. Yun Shicheng used this method to think that she did not know his true purpose, and did not know if he was stupid or not.


    In front of the Duke Palace''s entrance, Yun Shicheng glared with his big tiger-like eyes as he dragged Mrs. Luo with one hand: "As this prince''s concubine, it''s fine if you don''t accept this responsibility, but you still want to hide! "Today, if you don''t return with This Prince, I won''t stop you from reading this President''s book!"


    "If the lord wants to rest, then so be it. Why are you blabbering so much?" "As the younger sister of the Prime Minister, I have married into the Minister¡¯s Mansion of a concubine for twenty years, and have kept the backyard for you for more than ten years. You have never said that I was good, that I had done wrong, and that I had even been implicated in it.


    "Slut!" Don''t try to stir up trouble! " Yun Shicheng said as he prepared to raise his hand to hit her, but just as he was about to raise his arm, he was stopped by a guard at the side, "Let go! I''m going to beat this bitch to death today! "


    "Is Master Shang Shu angry from embarrassment, or is he trying to bully my Regent¡¯s Mansion?" A clear and cold voice came from the door. The noisy scene immediately quietened down.


    Yun Shicheng''s movements froze, and his gaze landed at the entrance of the Duke''s Palace.


    At the door, An Xiang stood with his sword in hand and behind him were twenty to thirty armoured red armored guards carrying spears. With a wave of his hand, An Xiang divided the guards into two rows and quickly stood in a circle around Yun Shicheng.


    Yun Shicheng was panicking in his heart, and the strength in his hands slowly weakened. Mrs. Luo took advantage of the situation and retracted his arm, retreating a few steps to keep a safe distance between Yun Shicheng and himself.


    "You ¡­" "This is the Duke''s Palace, you''re the princess'' daughter, how could a maid like you stop me?" An Xiang said in a low voice as he pointed at An Xiang.


    "Master, don''t you have a good memory?" An Xiang frowned slightly as he asked thoughtfully, "How did this servant remember that the wangfei had no relationship with your estate one month before she was married off, and that the name of the wangfei had already been removed from the Yun family?"


    "Oh, that''s right. The wangfei also swore to have nothing to do with you. If you insist that the wangfei is your daughter, do you want her to be punished by the heavens or do you want to curse our prince? Tsk tsk, the adults sure are heartless! "


    "You ¡­ You... Heh! What a sharp tongued lass. Even if your wangfei doesn''t admit that this is her father, she''s still bleeding from me, Yun Shicheng! "


    Yun Shicheng refused to let go of this matter, and frowned: "Since you insist on doing so, then I will have to offend you!"


    Before Yun Shicheng could react, he saw the guards rush towards him. An Xiang stood at the entrance, holding onto his sword, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "Seize that person who cursed the Crown Prince''s wife! Send it to the Board of Justice for interrogation by Lord Dong himself! "


    "Yes sir!" The guards were all facing Yun Ruoleng.


    In their eyes, there were no longer any masters as good as Yun Ruoleng, and so they naturally met someone who cursed their master. Their hearts were not at ease, and the one who was in trouble was naturally Yun Shicheng.


    This group of guards were extremely rude to him. Without even caring if he was Master Shang Shu or not, they directly tied him up and sent him to the Ministry of Justice with over thirty guards under the lead of the captain of the guards.


    Seeing that this mess was finally over, Mrs. Luo heaved a sigh of relief. She was truly afraid that she would be taken away by Yun Shicheng just like this.


    "Mrs. Luo is startled, Miss has prepared some tea for Water Spirit Pavilion to calm Mrs. Luo''s nerves." After things were settled, Cui Ying walked out of the manor. Looking at the crowd that had not dispersed for a long time, he frowned, "The Regent¡¯s Mansion entrance is not allowed to be noisy, if you don''t want to cause trouble, then hurry up and leave!"

 C222

    As the female manager of the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Cui Ying was worthy of her two tricks. As soon as she finished speaking, more than two times the number of imperial guards rushed out from behind her. Most of the people watching the scene were commoners, so she naturally didn''t want to be sued.


    Cui Ying''s gaze was always on the people around her who had scattered. After her careful observation, there were a few people who had a sneaky look in their eyes, and she memorized their appearances one by one.


    Yun Ruoleng sat in the room of the Water Spirit Pavilion, holding a book in his right hand and a teacup in his left hand. Hearing footsteps at the door, Yun Ruoleng put down the teacup in his hand, and his gaze moved from the book to the door.


    "Your concubine, the Luo Clan, greets the wangfei." Mrs. Luo paid his respects to Yun Ruoleng the moment he entered the door.


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled and put down the book in his hand: "Why are you being so courteous to me Madam? "Get up quickly. Don''t bully me ¡ª the pregnant woman is here to help you."


    "Thank you, wangfei." Mrs. Luo was very clear about Yun Ruoleng''s methods.


    To be precise, Yun Ruoleng''s methods were not something that many people could compare to, and all the people she had were capable, no wonder the Regent had chosen her as his wife. It was probably not because of her looks, but because of her!


    At the same time as Mrs. Luo was sizing her up, she was also sizing up Mrs. Luo. She kept having the feeling that after what had just happened, Mrs. Luo seemed to have become a completely different person.


    "Madam, come over and take a seat." Yun Ruoleng patted the spot beside him, "This is the jujube cake sent over from the royal kitchen today, it tastes sour and sweet. Madam, try it, if you like it, ask Peach Blossom to bring some to your courtyard."


    "This is a gift from the emperor, I ¡­"


    "It''s just food. Besides, the Emperor has lent me the whole royal kitchen, saying that I''m pregnant and they can cook whatever I want. How could that child know that the cooks in the prince''s mansion eat better food than the ones in the imperial kitchens? "


    Yun Ruoleng joked and laughed. However, when he heard the words that sounded like a joke to Mrs. Luo, his tone changed: "Your majesty is so good to the wangfei, I''m afraid someone might try to sow discord."


    Yun Ruoleng''s smile faded: "I''m afraid someone has already tried it?"


    The Mrs. Luo nodded his head. The Regent and the Little Emperor were like father and son, plus the Duke didn''t really care about the throne, the little Emperor would naturally not listen to nonsense.


    Mrs. Luo sat at Yun Ruoleng''s place for a while before returning. Then, Cui Ying walked in with a few pieces of paper, and gave them to Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up when he saw this, and his eyes sparkled as he looked at Cui Ying: "Who taught you how to draw this, not bad!"


    "Miss, where are you looking?" Cui Ying didn''t know whether to laugh or cry when he saw Yun Ruoleng''s expression. "This humble servant was freely following the Holy Mother and was naturally influenced by her zither, chess, calligraphy and paintings. It''s just that I''m not as great as the Holy Mother."


    The smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face froze, and his expression became serious. Cui Ying knew that she had said the wrong thing, and immediately patted her mouth: "This servant deserves to die, I mentioned sad stuff again, it makes my young miss unhappy ¡­"


    "You can''t come back from the dead, you didn''t say anything wrong." Yun Ruoleng smiled lightly at her, but there was no happiness in his eyes, only sadness.


    Cui Ying immediately changed the topic: "All these people are the people that I observed earlier, they are all hiding in the crowd, although their movements are light, I dare to confirm that there is a problem with this group of people."


    Yun Ruoleng swept his eyes over the portrait, and after he finished reading, he handed the portrait over to Cui Ying: "There are a total of five people, their appearances are ordinary, and if they were placed in the crowd, it would not attract attention, looks like the other party has long ago set up a plan to lure me out, and if it fails today, I think there will be a plan for it."


    "Miss, aren''t you going to check where these five people came from?" Cui Ying didn''t understand why she wanted to draw these people, and why she didn''t check them after she finished drawing.


    Yun Ruoleng handed the portrait over to Cui Ying: "These people are all too ordinary looking, we won''t be able to find them within a short period of time, we might as well wait for the next attack, we''ll go with the vines to find the melon."


    Cui Ying''s eyes lit up, and he started to admire Yun Ruoleng more and more. He thought to himself with regret in his heart: If Third Young Miss was half as vigilant as Seventh Miss, she wouldn''t have died from the poison on the ground.


    Yun Ruoleng did not know what Cui Ying was thinking, but after Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he continued to read, and because he was afraid of disturbing Yun Ruoleng, Cui Ying quietly left the room.


    Jun Qingshang stayed in the palace for nearly six hours. If it wasn''t for Yun Ruoleng as an excuse, the little Emperor still wouldn''t have released him.


    Actually, Jun Qingshang felt helpless and tender towards the little emperor.


    He had lost both his father and mother when he was young. Sitting in this position at the age of five, he was surrounded by schemes and dangers. Every time he acted like a child, he could only act quietly.


    The person he had to protect now not only had the Rivers and Mountains of Heaven''s Enlightenment, but also his wife and children. Even if he knew that Yun Ruoleng would protect him, he had no choice but to be vigilant.


    When Jun Qingshang walked out of the palace and learned that Yun Shicheng had messed with the Regent¡¯s Mansion today, he first frowned. After hearing what Yun Ruoleng had to say, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up as he instructed An Ying, "Causing a huge disturbance in the Duke Palaces is a serious crime. Go and tell Sir Dong that there''s no need to look at his relationship with this duke and he''ll be given a lighter punishment."


    After An Ying heard these words, the corner of his mouth fiercely twitched a few times. This was not an indirect way of telling Sir Dong that those who cause trouble for the Residence of Duke should not care about his reputation.


    Jun Qingshang got on his horse, and once again threw away An Ying who had slandered him in shock. When An Ying came back to his senses, he only saw a shadow turning a corner, and helplessly pulling his horse.


    After Yun Ruoleng read the book, his eyes became sore and he threw the book on the small table. He leaned on the soft couch and closed his eyes to rest, and not long after he laid down, a "bang" sound rang out. Yun Ruoleng was immediately startled awake and quickly walked outside.


    "What happened to you?" Yun Ruoleng looked at An Yue who had fallen in the courtyard and couldn''t help but laugh lightly when he saw him fall to the ground.


    An Yue had never been in such a sorry state before. He crawled up from the ground, glared at Yun Ruoleng, and walked away with a cold snort. Cui Ying and An Xiang, who were standing at the door, also saw it. It was just that the two of them did not hold back and immediately laughed out loud, especially An Xiang.


    "You two laugh enough, go and clean up the things on the ground! If I fall down, the prince will definitely not let you off. " In the end, Yun Ruoleng could not bear to see An Xiang gloat like that, and ordered sternly.


    An Xiang finally regained his senses and immediately ran towards the center of the courtyard, observing the ground as he ran. His originally red face was now deathly pale as it faded away bit by bit, and when Yun Ruoleng saw the change in his expression, his face darkened slightly: "What''s going on?"

 C223

    Cui Ying reached out a hand to support Yun Ruoleng, and his expression became a lot more serious as well. An Xiang lifted his head and made a stopping motion towards Yun Ruo, "Princess, stand at the door and don''t walk down. The ground is filled with transparent masters.


    "You should be glad that I fell! Otherwise, you won''t be able to escape responsibility! " An Yue who was sitting on the rooftop could not help but say this to An Xiang after hearing what he said. It was indeed a supercilious look on An Xiang''s face.


    Yun Ruoleng had long gotten used to their bickering, so when he saw that An Xiang was so angry that he did not dare say anything, the corners of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth curled into a smile: "An Xiang, clean up the things on the floor, An Yue will go find a butler to come over."


    "Oh." An Yue looked at the pearl on the ground and felt a headache. After answering, he could not help but ask: "Can I look for someone to help?"


    "Cui Ying, you go help her. It looks like there are a lot of them, but I''m not at ease with others." Yun Ruoleng instructed Cui Ying as he turned around.


    Cui Ying was blessed, but he was a little worried about Yun Ruoleng. He insisted on helping her before he was willing to help, and Yun Ruoleng did not force her.


    This year, Uncle Pu was around fifty years old, and had a healthy and healthy body. When he found out that Yun Ruoleng was looking for him, he reacted very quickly so he rushed towards the Water Spirit Pavilion, and was immediately picked up by An Yue and flew to the door of Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    Uncle Pu was shocked at first, but before he could say anything, Yun Ruoleng''s cold voice sounded out from inside the house: "Since you''re here, then come in!"


    Uncle Pu was startled and stared at An Yue: "I''ll deal with you later!"


    An Yue''s face twitched. She did not even bother to look at him, as she stood at the foot of the pavilion holding her sword and watching the two women pick up things from the ground. Naturally, Uncle Po saw it too. Curious but not curious, he turned and entered the room. Yun Ruoleng looked at Uncle Pu, whose hair was a little gray, and the corner of his mouth raised a little.


    "This servant pays his respects to the wangfei." Uncle Pu was well-mannered, Yun Ruoleng did not make things difficult for him, he raised his hand and ordered: "I''m very tired standing, I just need to find a seat."


    "Thank you, wangfei." Although Uncle Pu didn''t understand why this princess who didn''t like to deal with matters in the court would ask him to come here, he still maintained a humble attitude.


    It wasn''t Yun Ruoleng''s first time seeing him, but it was his first time calling him alone, so naturally he had to look around first. After sizing him up, Yun Ruoleng said: "I have a tiny glass bead in my courtyard, and the amount is not small either. When you came in, did you see the two maids picking up the things in the courtyard?"


    Uncle Po''s heart tightened, his expression changing again. "Why is there such a thing in the yard?"


    Yun Ruoleng passed over the red lacquer tray to him. Inside it were over ten colourless and transparent glass beads, how could Uncle Po''s expression not change after looking at them? The average person would at most fall and be injured, but the Water Spirit Pavilion was different. The person inside was not an ordinary person, but rather the sole Regent Prince Consort of Heaven''s Awakening. It was understandable that one or two of these beads would appear in the stomach of a young prince, one or two of them would be more than ten, and some would even be on the ground.


    There was a spy within the Water Spirit Pavilion, and he was one who wanted to kill the child in Yun Ruoleng''s stomach. Just as Uncle Pu wanted to kneel down, he heard a furious roar.


    "Investigate for This King!"


    Yun Ruoleng and Uncle Pu looked at each other, neither of them said a word, waiting for the people outside to come in, so Uncle Pu would consciously retreat. Yun Ruoleng walked over gracefully and threw himself into Jun Qingshang''s embrace: "Going out, your complexion has become so bad, have you met with any unhappiness?"


    Jun Qingshang held onto Yun Ruoleng''s shoulders with his large hands, his gaze swept across Yun Ruoleng''s body, seeing that she was fine, he became relieved: "I heard about someone making trouble the moment I left the palace, and just as I reached the gates, I heard that something happened to your courtyard, will I still be happy?"


    "The enemy is hiding in the shadows while we are in the light. We can''t find a way out in a short amount of time, so we can only be on guard." Yun Ruoleng hugged his skinny waist, "Aren''t I fine now? Furthermore, I''m afraid that this pearl will not be able to find anything. "


    "Even so, we still have to investigate!" Jun Qingshang rested his chin on Yun Ruoleng''s forehead and sighed lightly: "This king has been doing good deeds recently, and they are bullying you as if you were a king! It looks like This King should not be merciful to them! "


    "Hur hur." Yun Ruoleng laughed as he leaned into Jun Qingshang''s embrace. The two of them hugged for a long time before they let go of each other. Jun Qingshang supported Yun Ruoleng and sat on the soft couch while she squeezed in front of him.


    He did not speak, but Yun Ruoleng had a lot to ask him. Seeing that his expression was slightly better, he said: "I''m afraid that the Phoenix Map has returned for the sake of the Yue Ling, be careful not to be used by him."


    "He''s a good opponent for me." Jun Qingshang rubbed her shiny black hair and could not help but chuckle.


    How could someone that Jun Qingshang called his opponent as simple? The moment Yun Ruoleng saw the Phoenix Map, he immediately felt that this person was not simple. His intentions for coming back this time was definitely not simple.


    In addition, with the friendship between and Tian Qi which was set to last for a hundred years, the friendship was quickly over, and Huang Teng was going to stay at this place for another ten years, but Huang Teng died halfway through it. The purpose of the Phoenix Painting this time was very simple, so she didn''t believe in Yun Che!


    Jun Qingshang saw Yun Ruoleng''s worry and wanted to comfort her, but she couldn''t say it out loud. After all, her worry was precisely his worry, and even he wasn''t completely sure of the outcome, how could he persuade her? If it was anyone else, he would have been able to convince her, but the person he had to convince was a clever girl.


    Yun Ruoleng''s group of four jumped rather quickly, from the matter of the Phoenix Diagram over to the matter of the Wind King. Although Jun Qingshang''s method of inviting him to join was good, she felt that it was not appropriate, so the two of them continued to chat until they heard the sounds of people crying outside.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang looked at each other, and before Yun Ruoleng could say anything, he had already lifted her up and gently placed her on the bed, "Today''s events are too many, you should rest for a bit first, I''ll go take a look."


    Yun Ruoleng really wanted to reject. How could Jun Qingshang possibly give her the chance to refuse? Without waiting for her to speak, he had already left the room. Yun Ruoleng laid on his bed gloomily.


    Jun Qingshang walked out of his room and closed the door behind him. He stared at the servant girl in pink, who was being held down by the guards, with sunken eyes: "What''s going on?"


    "To reply Mistress, this person is a servant girl from the Water Spirit Pavilion. When we investigated her previously, she was secretly hiding something, and when we opened it, we saw that it was a half box of Glazed Glass Beads. It was the same as the one on the ground." An Ying handed the box over to Jun Qingshang and Jun Qingshang opened it.


    "Do you have something to say?"

 C224

    "This servant didn''t mean to harm the wangfei. This is the box I saw when I passed by her door this morning, so I picked it up and took it back. The things inside were way too valuable, so I wanted to bury it, but didn''t want Lord Shadow to see it."


    "Repeat the ten boards," Jun Qingshang coldly said. "Are you satisfied?"


    "Thank you for not killing me!" The servant''s heart was so grateful to Jun Qingshang that she kowtowed to him.


    Jun Qingshang did not bother with the servant, and gave the box in his hands to An Ying: "Check the origin of the box."


    "Your Highness, that ¡­"


    "It''s not her!" Jun Qingshang threw these three words down and turned around, heading back into the room. Yun Ruoleng, who was wearing the clothes, heard everything outside clearly, and had a plan in his mind.


    This made Jun Qingshang a little depressed. When he walked into the room, he saw Yun Ruoleng''s pair of watery eyes looking at him, Jun Qingshang raised his brows and asked, "Did you think of something?"


    "Although we didn''t catch him, we already have a clue." Yun Ruoleng smiled at Jun Qingshang: "The box is probably an ordinary box, even if we investigate it, we wouldn''t be able to find out. Someone who can use such a fine and exquisite glass bead to harm me must not be underestimated."


    Glass Beads were not easy to find, and with so many of them, it would probably be even harder to find. Jun Qingshang naturally knew that, it was just that the Glass Bead was not easy to find. But with so many large families, this kind of Glass Bead was still easy to find. Jun Qingshang''s gaze darkened. It seemed that there was only this one clue.


    Jun Qingshang rubbed Yun Ruoleng''s fluffy head: "If you''re tired, then go to sleep! This King will just wait and see. "


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, with him around, she would be able to relax. Leaning on his body, Yun Ruoleng closed his eyes slightly, enjoying the tranquility.


    Seeing that she had really fallen asleep while leaning on his chest and was sleeping soundly, Jun Qingshang felt a little helpless. The corner of his mouth raised slightly, and he carefully placed her on the bed.


    After placing Yun Ruoleng down, Jun Qingshang walked out with a gloomy face. Because he was preparing for the emperor''s birthday, there were many officials who came back from other countries, causing the originally disharmonious Beijing to become even more disharmonious. However, on the surface, it still looked rather harmonious. The commoners were still doing their own small businesses. They didn''t know that the capital was already swarming with people.


    When Jun Qingshang came out of the Water Spirit Pavilion realm, he saw that An Xiang and Cui Ying were still searching the ground, and when the two saw that Jun Qingshang had come out, they immediately bowed.


    Jun Qingshang nodded, and suddenly stopped when he passed by the two of them: "She''s asleep, don''t disturb her."


    "Yes sir!" An Xiang and Cui Ying agreed. Only then did Jun Qingshang leave with ease, and after he left, Cui Ying and An Xiang both heaved a sigh of relief. The aura being emitted from Jun Qingshang''s body was too strong, and most people could not withstand it.


    "Where are they?" When Jun Qingshang returned to Shang Mo Pavilion, he immediately entered the study room and asked.


    Jun Qingshang, who was beside him, was slightly startled, as he looked at Jun Qingshang in a daze. Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes squinted, as his heart trembled, and he suddenly realized something, and he cupped his hands together, "We''ve just passed the Forest of Death. According to this speed, we''ll reach the capital in less than half a month."


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze darkened slightly. "There is at least a month and a half''s time between the capital of the Yue Ling and this place. He has reduced the time available by two-thirds.


    "Your Royal Highness, it''s already been half a month since you left the water path." An Ying couldn''t help but quietly remind her, only to be rolled his eyes at her.


    "Huang Tu has been living in the Yue Ling for a long time, so he''s definitely not used to going by the water route. It''s true that he only needs half a month to go from the Yangtze River to the capital, but for someone who''s not used to the water path, it''s probably suffering. Aren''t you and I clear what kind of person Huang Tu is? He can walk on the water under these kind of conditions? " The reason why Jun Qingshang made things difficult for him was because An Ying''s words were not according to reality, and were simply wishful thinking.


    An Ying rubbed his nose, and then awkwardly stood in front of the table. Listening to Jun Qingshang''s lecture, Jun Qingshang did not really lecture him, but changed the topic: "There are a lot of Glazed Glass Beads, check who has gotten so many of them recently."


    This subordinate has already investigated, yesterday an ordinary servant bought it at the Treasure Pavilion. As for which mansion that servant came from, the boss of the Treasure Pavilion has indicated that he does not know, because the person who has come did not bring a name plate.


    "It seems like the person behind the scenes is trying to give me a warning every once in a while." With a smile that was not a smile, Jun Qingshang picked up the pen on the table.


    As he spoke, he said, "Do we still need to investigate?"


    "Since the clues are already broken, then there is no end to the investigation. We might as well act according to the situation, the troops will come at the right time to block the water, Ruo Er is clever, and probably will not meet with any mishaps." Jun Qingshang dipped his brush into the ink and started to write a line of words on the white paper. After which, he passed the letter to An Ying: "Hand this letter to the Sect Leader of Wu Ying Temple personally."


    "Yes sir!" An Ying took the letter that Jun Qingshang handed to him, blew him dry and stuffed him into his wide sleeves, then cupped his hands towards Jun Qingshang and left the study.


    The moment An Ying left, An Yue hurriedly walked in. Seeing that Jun Qingshang did not do anything else, he said: "Master, this subordinate has discovered the aura of a Dark Witch on the Glass Bead, this subordinate feels that this matter is not too simple. It is very possible that the Dark Witch has already reached an agreement with some ministers ¡­"


    "Last time, he let them go, and now, he''s come again. It seems that the Dark Mage won''t be able to have peace for one day until I get rid of the Heaven''s Awakening!" With a "pa" sound, Jun Qingshang smashed the pen on the table.


    "This subordinate has just returned from the outskirts of the capital. There''s an abandoned courtyard there with dense dark Spiritual Qi. I assume they''re all there!"


    "Suburbs?" Jun Qingshang stroked his chin with one hand and tapped the table with the other. The charming beautiful eyes flashed a cold look: "Send people to stop, we have to catch the thieves, we have to catch the king first."


    "Yes sir!" After An Yue left, Jun Qingshang sat in the study room, his entire body emitting cold air, his face also becoming extremely dark. The servant who brought the tea in quickly put it down and left, afraid that his master would kill him if he was displeased.


    Yun Ruoleng felt a strong sense of danger from within the Water Spirit Pavilion. She, who was originally very light asleep, suddenly opened her eyes, grabbed the clothes hanging on the corner of her bed, and as she put them on, she shouted towards the outside: "An Xiang, Peach Blossom, help me change my clothes!"


    The door was pushed open slowly. An Xiang walked into the room and saw her flustered expression and couldn''t help but ask: "What happened to the wangfei?"

 C225

    "Do you smell danger?" Yun Ruoleng really believed in her sixth sense. Such a powerful aura made her feel suppressed, and it was difficult to breathe.


    An Xiang sniffed the air and shook his head in confusion. Where did this dangerous Qi come from? There was no one else in this room except her and the wangfei! An Xiang stood still and did not want to explain himself, so he grabbed his clothes and was about to leave. Seeing that he did not know whether to laugh bitterly or cry, An Xiang immediately pulled her to tidy her up a bit before they were willing to let her go.


    When Yun Ruoleng stepped out of the room, she heard a thunderous noise. She raised her head and saw two black-robed men fighting in the air.


    An Xiang also saw this scene, and was so shocked that he shrunk his head, and then he thought of what Yun Ruoleng had said, and looked at Yun Ruoleng weirdly. Yun Ruoleng did not care about how she looked at him, and immediately pulled An Xiang away.


    Dark Magi and Magi were not on good terms with each other in the first place. They were both powerful warriors, and once they started fighting, they would probably destroy an entire piece of land.


    The sound of the two fighting was world-shaking, all the people in the Duke Palaces could run out and watch the fight, and when Jun Qingshang heard the sound of fighting from the study, he looked in the direction of the fight and his face immediately darkened, his first reaction was to run out the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Seeing that, it was too late to stop Jun Qingshang, so he could only call for the guards in the courtyard to retreat. Yun Ruoleng used his spirit energy to protect An Xiang and Cui Ying, the three of them ran out as fast as they could, and met Jun Qingshang who was rushing over. Only then did Yun Ruoleng heave a sigh of relief, and when Jun Qingshang saw the three of them, he did not heave a sigh of relief.


    An Xiang pulled Cui Ying and quickly followed Jun Qingshang''s footsteps, standing at the place farthest from the Death House, and watched the battle. This fight lasted for half an hour, and finally, justice triumphed over the darkness. Although Black Robe stood in the air, and his clothes fluttered in the wind, his pair of cold eyes still stared at the Dark Witch, who was lying on the ground, unable to breathe, "If you dare to even touch a single hair of his, I won''t spare you!"


    "Cough, cough ¡­" So she really was ¡­ "Ahhh!" Before the Dark Mage could finish his words, a white light flashed across and pierced right into the Dark Mage''s forehead, stopping his words in his mouth.


    Because Yun Ruoleng had used his Shaman Energy, his entire body was powerless. Seeing that the Dark Wizard had been killed, he heaved a sigh of relief, and his intuition told him that he had fainted.


    "This official is here! This official is here! " Doctor Dong anxiously pushed his way through the crowd and came to Jun Qingshang''s side. He extended his hand to feel Yun Ruoleng''s pulse.


    "How is it?" Jun Qingshang saw him frown, and asked anxiously.


    Imperial Physician Dong took a step back before cupping his hands. "To reply your highness, wangfei has only passed out from exhaustion. It''s not a big deal for her baby."


    "Who said anything about a baby!" Jun Qingshang said with a cold face, "This king wants to ask how is the wangfei doing!"


    No harm, no harm." Lord Dong was so frightened that his entire body trembled. He did not dare to hesitate and quickly returned. Jun Qingsheng breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the collapsed Water Spirit Pavilion, he couldn''t help but frown. "The mansion needs to be built. Both of you, pack up and come with me to the Jing Dong courtyard for a few days.


    "Yes sir!" Under Uncle Po''s lead, An Xiang and Cui Ying went back to pack their things.


    Peach Blossom arrived late. Seeing Jun Qingshang carrying Yun Ruoleng, she was shocked: "Miss, what''s wrong?"


    It was only then that Jun Qingshang noticed Peach Blossom, thinking to himself that he had not seen this girl for the entire day, he suspiciously asked, "Where did you go?"


    "Miss wanted me to go to the embroidery workshop and the Mo family''s three brothers to discuss something with them. Why did I have to return to the prince''s mansion half the day after leaving the sect?" Peach Blossom''s heart was completely preoccupied with Yun Ruoleng, as she momentarily forgot that Jun Qingshang was a very terrifying person. Her tone of voice carried some doubts and anxiety.


    Jun Qingshang sized her up coldly, and upon seeing that she did not seem to be lying, he slightly nodded his head: "When the Duke Palaces are assassinated, this duke must really thank the Master of the Death House."


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up again, it was already midnight. When he woke up, the first thing he saw was that he was in a strange environment and he couldn''t help but frown.


    "You''re awake?" Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to become the Guardian God, he suddenly heard a magnetic voice.


    Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes and asked, "Where is this place?"


    "A mansion located in the east of the capital. More than half of the manor was destroyed by Dark Magi yesterday, and more than half of it is still under construction." Jun Qingshang put down the brush and ink in his hands and stood up, then walked over to the table and poured Yun Ruoleng a cup of hot tea.


    "Then wouldn''t we have to live here for a long time?" Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. She was quite a distance away from Jingdong to Beijing, and compared to how she was able to enter the palace in the time it took for two incense sticks to burn, she would probably be even further from there.


    Jun Qingshang naturally knew what she was worried about, and couldn''t help but laugh: "No problem, like this I can accompany you more at home."


    Yun Ruoleng glared at him snappily: "Your highness sure knows how to joke around. If you accompany me for a long period of time, those civil servants would have another topic to discuss. This is originally a critical period, I don''t want you to spend so much effort here."


    Compared to that, Jun Qingshang cared about her more. Fortunately, she was fine today, so if anything happened to her, he would go crazy. Jun Qingshang handed the teacup to her and slowly sat on the edge of the bed. "That won''t happen.


    Yun Ruoleng slowly stroked her stomach with her small hands as the corners of her mouth raised up slightly. It was good to have a child and a husband to accompany her, but she was jealous of the Rice Worm after it had been there for a long time. Yun Ruoleng took a light sip of tea: "The other party has continuously attacked us. If we don''t do something, I''m afraid we''ll let him down."


    "Indeed." Jun Qingshang agreed with Yun Ruoleng''s words. Some people challenged his limits again and again, perhaps they had forgotten about his methods.


    As Yun Ruoleng looked at his now extremely cold face, his heart trembled slightly. His small hands unconsciously held onto his handsome face: "Your Highness, Ruo Er is very afraid."


    Jun Qingshang reached out and pulled Yun Ruoleng into her embrace, his lower jaw pressing onto her furry head, he did not speak for a long time.


    Jun Qingshang''s house in Jing Dong was not very big. When he woke up in the morning, he would pester Jun Qingshang to walk around the courtyard.


    Jun Qingshang had also asked the imperial physician, and upon learning that it was indeed the case, he supported her to walk around the courtyard. The courtyard wasn''t big nor small, it took Yun Ruoleng two hours to walk around the garden in the backyard. Compared to the verdant palace of the Duke Palaces, the backyard was much more beautiful, with mountains, water, and large patches of orchids and chrysanthemums in the courtyard. Yun Ruoleng was very happy, since this kind of garden could be considered to be a real garden.

 C226

    Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts seemed to be very good. Sitting in the pavilion at the center of the lake, holding onto the railings and looking at the scenery at the center of the lake, the corner of his mouth unconsciously raised upwards: "I actually feel that it''s better to have the Duke''s Mansion placed here from now on."


    "In the future, it''ll be better if the palace is converted into this. This place is indeed a little far from the palace. If the emperor meets with any problems, he''ll have to spend some time to find me." Jun Qingshang embraced Yun Ruoleng tightly, and said with a smile, "Furthermore, Mo Zhan and the embroidery workshop are really far from here, I can''t possibly let you run so far away every single time, right?"


    After Yun Ruoleng heard this, he also felt that it was reasonable. He nodded his head thoughtfully: "I was careless, but I have to come often over here. After all, this place is much more fun than the Duke Palaces."


    Jun Qingshang held Yun Ruoleng''s arm tighter and whispered into her ear. "When the world is at peace, I''ll take you to visit all the corners of the world."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang with sparkling eyes.


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang would not easily make promises to others, if he made promises, he would definitely make promises, just that it would be difficult to make peace in this world.


    Jun Qingshang''s chin was pressed against Yun Ruoleng''s forehead, and his gaze sunk slightly. He wanted to unify the world, to give the world a peaceful and prosperous life, so that he could be together with the person he loved.


    The Regent¡¯s Mansion was destroyed by the Dark Wizard''s men. The Dark Wizard''s goal was to attack the Regent Royal Consort.


    Therefore, many people were curious about this wangfei. They were also curious about the man in the black robe who lived in what was known as the "death quarters". The man had a scar on his face, looked ferocious, but also possessed an unfathomable amount of Shaman Power.


    And he was only there to protect the regent''s wife, which made the world even more curious about her.


    And because of this, the people who wanted to destroy Yun Ruoleng started spreading rumors everywhere, saying that Yun Ruoleng and the black-robed Magus were related, and that everything was in order. If it wasn''t for the fact that Jun Qingshang and himself knew what was going on, they would have really believed it.


    "Miss, what kind of rumors are going around outside?" Peach Blossom angrily wandered around the room, but Yun Ruoleng did not take this matter seriously at all as he sat in the pavilion and drank his tea slowly.


    "Miss!" Peach Blossom took the teacup from Yun Ruoleng''s hand, "Aren''t you in a hurry?"


    "What''s the use of rushing?" Yun Ruoleng swept a glance at the teapot on the table, and self-consciously poured himself a cup. This time, she was not in a hurry to drink, but was staring at the teacup with interest. The people who are messing around with us are nothing more than trash of the Lan and Yun families. We don''t need to worry about this, someone will take care of these people for us very soon. "


    Yun Ruoleng''s thought process made people confused, Peach Blossom couldn''t figure out what Yun Ruoleng meant by his last sentence, so she looked at with her watery eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng crooked his fingers at her, Peach Blossom lowered her head and leaned towards Yun Ruoleng, but got a goosebumps: "Don''t always follow me like that, hurry up and prepare some snacks, in the afternoon I had someone to play chess and drink tea with!"


    "Who?" "Who is it?" Peach Blossom covered her head, as she frowned, feeling the pain, unable to understand when Yun Ruoleng had arranged to meet someone.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and did not speak, he only waved his hand, and did not say anything.


    Peach Red pouted. She knew that she wouldn''t be able to get anything out of him, so she turned around and left. Yun Ruoleng watched her back as she left and the smile slowly formed on his face, a cold light flashing past his eyes.


    There was someone who came to visit today, someone no one wanted to see. Peach Blossom stood behind Yun Ruoleng as she stared at the gorgeous woman in front of her in alert. The woman dressed in red had a charming smile on her face the moment she saw Yun Ruoleng''s appearance, the smile on her face intensified.


    "Chenqie heard that wangfei''s body wasn''t feeling very well. A few days ago, she paid a visit to the mansion, but didn''t expect you to thank her behind closed doors. She only waited until today to send her greetings." The woman was none other than the imperial concubine, Lan Yuzhu, who had been chased out that day.


    "I''ve already seen it, it''s about time for the secondary wife to go back. After all, it''s very immoral for you to let a pregnant woman accompany you." Yun Ruoleng was not polite with her, he went straight to the point and sent her away.


    Lan Yuzhu''s facial expression changed slightly. It was awkward, but she reacted in an instant. "The wangfei is in a hurry to get chenqie away. Is she afraid chenqie will know something?"


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, "You should tell it to this wangfei. It''s fine if you''re right, but if you''re wrong, that''s a crime of slandering a regent''s wangfei."


    "Haha ¡­" Lan Yuzhu smiled lightly, "Chenqie is joking with you! There''s no need for you to be so serious, wangfei. "


    "Oh?" Yun Ruoleng gave a cold laugh, "This wangfei never jokes. It''s best not to joke about such things in the future, in order to avoid being misunderstood."


    "Chenqie will remember." Lan Yuzhu took a deep breath, and continued to think about the topic in her heart. Suddenly, she saw a group of people whispering to each other by the lake, and her gaze sunk slightly. She smiled lightly at Yun Ruoleng.


    "This wangfei is tired. If you want to visit, then let''s have someone accompany An Xiang!" Yun Ruoleng yawned lazily, looking really tired.


    Lan Yuzhu did not insist, and got up with fortune. An Xiang, who was standing at the bottom of the stairs, looked at her warily and smiled: "Thank you, Miss."


    An Xiang kept his alert face and slightly bowed towards the Orchid Jade Pearl, making an inviting gesture: "Consort, please."


    Lan Yuzhu left the pavilion under An Xiang''s lead. Yun Ruoleng stood up and walked out of the pavilion with Peach Red''s support. The only difference was that the two of them were travelling in opposite directions.


    Returning to the newly arranged courtyard, Yun Ruoleng rested his head on the soft couch as he leaned against it with one hand. Peach Blossom sat on the step under the soft couch and hugged her legs as she complained, "This Orchid Weasel is really paying New Year respects to Chicken. It seems that Miss has no good intentions, and even after saying that she still wants to go out to the courtyard. Miss, why did you agree to it in the end? "


    "This woman is very scheming. Otherwise, she wouldn''t have been so doting." Yun Ruoleng opened her eyes slightly, a cold glint flashed past her clear phoenix eyes, "But she wants to test me, so I''ll let her test me. Since Black Robe has set up a formation in the courtyard, what does it have to do with us whether we live or die if we touch them?"


    Her red eyes shone, looking at Yun Ruoleng with even more adoration. Yun Ruoleng waved his hands at her, "Put away that gaze of yours. If the prince saw you, he wouldn''t let you come close to him to serve you."


    "In the past, Prince has always been a god in this servant''s heart, but ever since he married you, this servant feels that the god in my heart is a great jealous jar, and even this servant is jealous of him. This servant is truly helpless." As Peach Blossom spoke, she covered her heart and pretended to be helpless, her face filled with a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled as he pointed at her forehead. "You aren''t afraid that he''ll listen."

 C227

    "Miss will protect Peach Blossom, what''s there to be afraid of?" If one were to say that Jun Qingshang was the goddess in her heart, then Yun Ruoleng was a person that was even greater than the gods in her heart.


    After all, a person who was able to make even a Deity listen obediently was even more powerful than a Deity.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze softened, but he maintained a straight face: "If you want to speak to me about this, then go out and don''t speak nonsense."


    "This servant understands." Peach Blossom nodded, her small head resting on Yun Ruoleng''s soft bed. Calculating the time, it was almost time for Yun Ruoleng to drink the Body Nourishing Medicinal Solution, she sat on the step and spoke a few words to before leaving.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the Peach Blossom that disappeared from the door, deep in thought.


    Not long after Peach Blossom left, she ran back in a hurry. An Xiang who was behind her was covered in blood all over, and there was even a wound on her face. The wound looked very sinister, and was still bleeding.


    Yun Ruoleng almost fell off the soft couch seeing An Xiang''s appearance. "What''s going on?"


    "Orchid Side Concubine told me to retrieve her things. I entered the forbidden zone myself, and I risked my life to save her body. But, I was unable to do so." An Xiang kneeled on the ground in frustration, he was afraid that he had stirred up trouble for his master this time.


    "Who let you save her?" With a cold expression, Yun Ruoleng turned around and said to Peach Blossom who was supporting him, "Help her up on the bed and get the Imperial Physician Shang to come over. Also, ask the Duke to call her over as soon as he comes back."


    "Yes sir!" Peach Blossom gave An Xiang a deep look, then left the room.


    Yun Ruoleng laid her on the soft bed, and berated her sternly: "If you don''t use your brain, if you use your life to save her, how can you get back at her? Even if you succeed in saving her, can you guarantee that she won''t bite you back? "


    "But if something were to happen to her in our courtyard ¡­"


    "What are you afraid of? I told her to leave. She insisted on going to the courtyard, and it was she who backed it! If you wanted to force your way in, who would dare to blame me? " Even though Yun Ruoleng said this, An Xiang couldn''t help but be worried. He felt that the method that the wangfei had used would make it easier for Feng Wang, who was secretly fighting with the prince, to brazenly fight with her.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang had already discussed this method a long time ago to lure the snake out of its cave. This Lan Yuzhu was obviously here to probe him out, as for who was the mastermind, it all depended on who counterattacked this time.


    Yun Ruoleng pressed her down onto the soft bed and took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood off her face. Looking at the scar on her face, his brows slightly knitted: "These scar are a bit deep, I''m afraid it''s going to leave a scar."


    When An Xiang heard this, his expression darkened slightly. The scar on his face was a huge blow to the girl, and when Yun Ruoleng saw her expression rise up a little, he said, "When the Imperial Physician Shang comes over later, ask him to bring some Jade Pure Hibiscus Ointment over, it''s a wound after all. It''s not good to leave it on your face."


    "Thank you, wangfei." An Xiang wanted to bow and express his thanks, but was stopped by Yun Ruoleng. Before long, Doctor Shang arrived, and looking at the injured An Xiang, he couldn''t help but ask in his heart: "Princess has been assassinated again?"


    "Is your lordship hoping for this wangfei''s assassination?" Yun Ruoleng laughed unhappily.


    "I don''t dare to!" The imperial physician hastened to confess. "This subject has made a slip of the tongue! Please forgive me, esteemed wangfei!"


    "Help her take a look!" Yun Ruoleng disapprovingly waved his hand, then sat on the other side of the soft couch.


    Cui Ying frowned when he saw An Xiang walking in, but he did not make a sound. He walked over to Yun Ruoleng and whispered a few sentences into his ears.


    Doctor Shang Yu took An Xiang''s pulse and then stood up to prescribe some medicine. Yun Ruoleng looked at An Xiang for a while before speaking: "Right now, you are recovering here, I will go to the main hall to take a look."


    "Princess, be careful." An Xiang seemed to have thought of something, seeing that Yun Ruoleng had gone out, he suddenly called out to her, "The person behind Lan Wei''s wife is the Duke Feng, and since the Duke has just returned to the capital, I''m afraid this matter will get out of hand."


    An Xiang''s words reminded Yun Ruoleng, that''s right, the Wind King''s secondary wife was naturally on his side, adding that he still had the heart to fight for the throne, the first person who would cause trouble for him would be him.


    Jun Qingfeng? Yun Ruoleng left the room with disdain as he was supported by Cui Ying.


    The two sides of the hall were filled with guards. When Yun Ruoleng stepped into the hall, the guards all knelt down to greet him. Yun Ruoleng told the guards to stand up, and their cold gazes landed on the ground in the pavilion. On the ground, a stretcher was covered with a piece of white cloth that protruded from the ground.


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but let out a sigh when he saw this. "Did anyone inform the Wind King or the Prince that an accident had occurred in the palace?"


    "To reply Princess Hua-Yang, your subordinate has already sent people, but these people have yet to return." The butler stood at the head and replied respectfully.


    Yun Ruoleng reached out to pick up the teacup, and elegantly turned the lid, remaining silent for a long time. Just when everyone thought that she was thinking of a way, footsteps came from outside the door. Yun Ruoleng''s gaze was fixated at the door, as he saw a slightly angry Jun Qingshang in an ink-robed man walk in.


    Yun Ruoleng put down the teacup in his hand, and stood up with a slight bow: "Prince has finally returned, chenqie is holding onto this matter and is worrying about it! "After all, the Lan Clan''s Concubine Lan is someone who has befriended someone. She has disappeared from our prince''s mansion just like that. We should at least give her an explanation."


    "Humph!" Jun Qingfeng held onto his sleeve, and said with a sneer, "Sister-in-law still knows how to give an explanation! What do you think about killing to repay someone with their life? "


    "It''s true, but some people want to kill themselves, and no one can stop her." Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly, and lightly sighed: "She came here out of good intentions, but this side courtyard has been set up with a Thousand Killing Array, it was set up by the flower of the side courtyard. After she saw me, I had someone send her off, and she refused to go for a stroll no matter what, so I can''t stop her! Wouldn''t I have no measure if that were the case? "


    "Besides, strolling around the courtyard means strolling around the courtyard. Furthermore, he intentionally sent away my servant girl. I wonder what the secondary wife intends to do? If you don''t believe me, you can ask the servant girl beside her. "


    That servant girl was not very smart, coupled with the fact that what Yun Ruoleng said was the truth, she involuntarily nodded her head when she heard Yun Ruoleng''s question and Jun Qingshang''s low pressure from the side.


    With this nod of his head, it was a foregone conclusion. The original plan had put this matter as suicide, causing Jun Qingfeng''s face to twitch in anger, but he did not dare do anything. He could only bring his corpse along with him and prepare to return to the Duke''s Mansion.


    "The prince is leaving just like that?" Seeing that he was about to leave, Yun Ruoleng softly said, "My servant girl is willing to sacrifice her life for the sake of Lan Wei Fei''s corpse, does Your Highness not want to thank me?"


    "You ¡­"


    "Ruo Er, stop messing around. In the end, she''s just a secondary wife. The three royal brothers didn''t even bat an eye at all when they die; how could they thank anyone for a secondary wife? "It''s fine if you and I know about this. Give it to that girl when we get back." What Jun Qingshang said was the truth, but to say such a thing on this occasion ¡­

 C228

    Cough cough, Yun Ruoleng quietly gave Jun Qingshang a big thumbs up, he never thought that this master would speak of Jun Qingfeng as a heartless and ungrateful person.


    Jun Qingfeng originally wanted to leave, but after hearing Jun Qingshang''s words, he stopped in his tracks. Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingfeng as if he was watching a good show.


    Jun Qingshang was not afraid of his retaliation, he was even more worried about Yun Ruoleng, since she was the one who schemed and killed him, and Yun Ruoleng was the weakest in the entire Duke Palaces, who would let her become pregnant? A lot of people like to take soft persimmon and pinch.


    Jun Qingfeng took a deep breath, then retrieved a jade pendant from his body and handed it over to the butler by his side: "Give the jade to that lady, consider this king''s thanks to her."


    Yun Ruoleng swept a glance at the jade in the butler''s hand and curled his lips. Forget about whether or not An Xiang would take this jade, even if he wanted it, he probably wouldn''t care too much.


    Thinking that the jade he gave others was even stronger than this, he couldn''t help but start to reflect on his opponent. He was so poor, yet he still wanted to recruit soldiers? This was really hard for him.


    After Jun Qingfeng left, Jun Qingshang supported Yun Ruoleng into the courtyard. As they walked, he said: "Although what you did today did not have any flaws, it was still enough to shock me, if not for the fact that the girl was not clever, I''m afraid that today''s matter would have been blown up."


    "I already knew that girl wasn''t smart, and she would tell the truth if she was provoked. That''s why I decided to do it." Yun Ruoleng paused, "I also don''t understand why Lan Yuzhu would let such a maid come out with me. Isn''t this courting death?"


    "Perhaps she never would have thought that you would set up a formation in the courtyard. She originally came here to obstruct you, but she didn''t expect that you already had thoughts on her. Perhaps even she didn''t know she died." Jun Qingshang supported her into the room, and it just so happened that An Xiang was drinking medicine. When he saw Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng come in, he immediately stood up and bowed.


    Yun Ruoleng casually waved his hand: "Since you''ve drank the medicine, go back inside your room and rest! As for his face ¡­ Doctor Shang, do you still have the Pure Jade Hibiscus Ointment? "


    "Yes there is, but ¡­"


    "Bring some!" The scars on the girl''s face are not good, and since there are no beauties in the harem now, we do not need these things. " Yun Ruoleng laughed sinisterly, which caused Doctor Shang''s scalp to go numb, and immediately replied yes with clasped hands.


    The Peach Blossom and Cui Ying who had entered the room carefully helped An Xiang out, and after they left, the room still had a faint smell of medicine and blood, which made Yun Ruoleng feel uncomfortable, he said to Jun Qingshang: "This room is so stuffy, go and open the window."


    Jun Qingshang obediently opened the window. Everyone said that she was the biggest pregnant woman in the world, and ever since she became pregnant, Yun Ruoleng had been addicted to sleep and nauseous. Although the happiness wasn''t really serious, it was very serious in Jun Qingshang''s eyes. Hearing Yun Ruoleng''s muffled voice, she anxiously opened the window, feeling even more disgusted with the child in her stomach.


    Disgusting was one thing, but Yun Ruoleng still wanted it. After disliking his own child, he began to cherish his own wife: "I''ll get someone to make me something to smoke, the smell inside really isn''t good."


    "Smoke what?" Yun Ruoleng pulled on his sleeves in annoyance: "The incense''s smell is even worse, coupled with the fact that the incense is harmful to the fetus, I don''t even use incense."


    Jun Qingshang seriously thought about it, and felt that Yun Ruoleng''s words were reasonable, but he couldn''t let the room be filled with the smell of blood. Thus, a certain prince racked his brains to think of a way to taste it. When Yun Ruoleng saw how much effort Jun Qingshang put in, he pulled on his sleeves and said, "Once you peel this plate of oranges, the smell will naturally disappear."


    "This ¡­" Jun Qingshang looked at the orange in front of him, then looked at his finger, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.


    "I can''t believe that the prince would peel an orange for me with his sword-like fingers. Just thinking about it makes me happy." Jun Qingshang was naturally clear about Jun Qingshang''s obsession with cleanliness, and seeing how he was beaten up made Yun Ruoleng even more happy in his heart.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang''s lives were like this. The two of them were bullying each other, but their hearts were tangled tightly, and they had long since been unable to find who was who.


    Jun Qingshang helped Yun Ruoleng peel off the oranges, but after Yun Ruoleng ate a few bites, he stopped eating the oranges, but there were still a bit less oranges, so Yun Ruoleng ordered as he pointed at the oranges on the plate: "Prince, you can peel one or two of them, and you can also peel two, why not peel all of them here."


    Jun Qingshang''s handsome face instantly darkened: Ruo Er thinks that your husband is easy to bully?


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrow, it was not that she was bullying him, but she felt that this kind of Regent was very interesting, so she nodded her head happily. Jun Qingshang flicked her forehead, causing Yun Ruoleng to cover his head in pain. He then looked at her dirty hands in disdain and pouted his lips: Only officials can light fires, not common people can you light lamps?


    Jun Qingshang was angered to the point of laughing, he broke off a piece of the fruit flesh and stuffed it into Yun Ruoleng''s mouth: "Good! Good! Good! Anything you say is fine. "


    Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly and raised her head proudly. Her arrogant and spoiled look made Jun Qingshang unable to help but laugh.


    At the beginning, when the two of them heard the contents inside, their expressions changed constantly. Peach Red even provocatively glared at An Ying who was facing her, and An Ying sneered, staring back at him without showing any signs of weakness. The two of them secretly competed with each other as Cui Ying, who was carrying a cup of tea, looked left and right between the two of them and helplessly continued to walk forward.


    Although An Ying did not know, but she knew about Peach Blossom. Last time, when An Ying was punished or when Peach Blossom begged Yun Ruoleng to help him lighten the punishment, Cui Ying did not mention anything about it. Cui Ying walked a few steps, sighed, and carried his back and quickened his pace.


    Jun Qingfeng brought Lan Yu Zhu''s corpse back to the Feng King Manor. Jun Qingshang was not a simple wife, after looking for her a few times, he started to take revenge, and brazenly invited her to do so. It seemed that his wife was not a simple person.


    Although the Lan family was ruined, the Lan Yuzhu was still the concubine of the Feng Family. If they were to bury them like this, then there would be no explanation at all.


    "How does Your Highness explain this to the Lan family?" The guards of the Wind King were not stupid. Lan Yuzhu was not as favored as Lan Yu-er, but she was also a member of the Lan family. If the Lan family was not dealt with now, the Lan family would turn against them.


    Jun Qingfeng laughed coldly, "Just follow what the Regent Royal Concubine says! The enemy of the enemy is a friend. "

 C229

    "Yes sir!" The guard responded, cupped his hands, and left.


    Jun Qingfeng rubbed his forehead as he sat at the seat at the head of the table. This move of Yun Ruoleng''s had severed the network of his Feng Family, and for the past few years, he had been pampering Lan Yuzhu not without reason. This was because this woman was born in a noble family and had an eight-sided heart.


    And now she''s gone like this ¡­ Jun Qingfeng would naturally regret it for a while.


    Regent¡¯s Mansion and death quarters were in the process of being built. It was a little difficult to build them, to the point that it was even slower to build them. If the butler had nothing to do, he could just go to the side of the mansion and listen to a lot of gossip along the way.


    In order to take charge of the overall situation, the old granny who had lived in the backyard for a long time was, after all, a bit old, so she couldn''t care about too many things. Adding to that, ever since First Madam had been convicted, Yun Yueyu seemed to have become a completely different person.


    Because the location of the courtyard was off to the side, none of the people there had access to the information in the middle part of the capital. Uncle Pu would poke around for gossip all day, and when he returned, he would gossip with Yun Ruoleng. One reason was to relieve Yun Ruoleng''s boredom, and more so, to let her stay in the backyard for a long time so that she could understand the current situation in the capital.


    Every time Yun Ruoleng heard this, she would tell him about interesting things. As for the little matter with the Yun Family, she was too lazy to bother with it, the Yun Family had already reached the end of their road without Master Shang Shu, even if Yun Jun succeeded in the future, it would still be a matter of the future, it would be hard to return to that place on the battlefield!


    Yun Ruoleng''s coldness surprised Uncle Pu, but he wasn''t surprised by the Yun Family''s attitude towards Princess Hua-Yang.


    "Miss, guess who''s here?" Peach Blossom hastily ran into the room with Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng remained calm and collected as he waved towards Uncle Pu, signalling for him to withdraw. Then he looked at her suspiciously: "Who''s here?"


    "Guess." Peach Red''s smiling appearance made her seem like someone she was very familiar with. She couldn''t help but chuckle.


    "Ling''er is here?" Seeing her so happy, Yun Ruoleng thought that only Yang Zi Ling could make him happy.


    Peach Blossom suddenly learned how to keep people in suspense. She smiled and shook her head. "That''s not right either."


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows. With that in mind, he got up and walked out, but Peach Blossom quickly reached out to support her. The smile on her face was hard to conceal.


    "Aunt." Yun Ruoleng bowed, her obedient look causing Jun JinRou''s face to be filled with smiles, as she reached out her hands to help her up.


    "This subject should have greeted you. This is the opposite." Jun JinRou teased.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, "You are an elder, why is it your turn to salute?"


    "That''s right, that''s right. Sister Yun can afford to pay respects to her mother." Yang Zi Ling skipped out from behind Jun Jinrou, and when Yun Ruoleng saw Yang Zi Zi''s happy look, his face also broke into a smile.


    Jun JinRou stretched out her hand and pulled Yang Zi Zi to her back. She snappily glanced at her and said, "You''re already such a grown man, you don''t have any rules. I wonder who will dare to marry you in the future!"


    "The Great Sima is the loyal subject of the imperial court. You''re a noble princess, and you don''t have many ladies in your family. I''m sure that my sister will find a husband for you." Yun Ruoleng smiled as he tilted his head to look at Yang Zi Zi.


    "Thank you elder sister for your kind words. It''s just that younger sister is still too young. There''s no rush in this matter." Hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, Yang Zi Zi became a little reserved, and laughed awkwardly.


    Yun Ruoleng kept on teasing her after hearing these words, and changed the topic. He looked at Jun JinRou and asked, "Aunt, is there something you need?"


    He extended his hand and grabbed Yun Ruoleng''s arm, sizing her up. Seeing that she was alright, he heaved a sigh of relief. I came to see you the moment I got back from Wu Yang Temple. "


    "Aunt, let''s talk inside. The door is really cold." Yun Ruoleng immediately stepped aside to allow Jun JinRou into the room.


    The inside of the house was indeed warmer than outside. In addition, Yun Ruoleng was afraid of the cold, so he specially arranged for people to get out of the house. Although it was simple, it did not lose the status of an imperial concubine. All of these items were rare treasures, and since Jun JinRou was in the Emperor''s household, she could easily tell whether these items were good or bad.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the mother and daughter pair as he sized up the room, and said: "This is only a temporary living space, I didn''t get anyone to put in too many antiques, just take whatever little sister and aunt like!"


    "Did Sister Yun mean what she said?"


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and nodded, he then pinched her red cheeks: "It''s a promise, whatever you like, I will take it."


    Yang Zi''s eyes lit up and he pointed at the fist-sized Night Pearl hanging on the bed: "I want that."


    "Nonsense!" Jun JinRou had thought that she would randomly choose a small toy, but unexpectedly, the moment she opened her mouth, she found a rare Night Pearl. Furthermore, this pearl was the size of two grown men''s fists.


    Yun Ruoleng tried to smooth things over: "This big sister bead cannot be given to you, but I will give you a bigger one, what about it?"


    Yang Zi looked at Yun Ruoleng with a puzzled expression: "Why?"


    Why? Wasn''t it because of a certain prince''s bad taste, calling it the pleasure of a lady''s room? This was too small, if she took it, wouldn''t she be able to exchange it for a brighter and bigger one? Of course, she couldn''t tell him about this. She could only smile faintly and say, "This gift from His Highness has an extraordinary meaning. If little sister likes the Night Pearl, I''ll have Peach Blossom take the biggest one in the accounting room."


    "It''s also a ghostly blue?" Yang Zi''s eyes lit up. Night Pearls were rarely seen as dark blue Night Pearls. The light was soft and beautiful, so that was why she chose her.


    Yun Ruoleng stared at the Night Pearl for a good long while before he asked Peach Blossom who was beside him in confusion, "Is there a similar one?"


    "I''m afraid not. After all, the dark blue Night Pearls are indeed hard to find. However, there are white and dark green pearls in the accounts room." Peach Red seemed to be deep in thought, as if she was recalling the Night Pearls in the accounts room.


    "Take Ling''Er to pick one that she likes. Aunt and I have something to discuss." Yun Ruoleng gently pushed Peach Blossom, Peach Blossom took in and made an inviting gesture towards Yang Zi Zi. When Yang Zi Zi Ling heard about going to the warehouse to choose the things she liked, her heart naturally filled with joy, and happily followed Peach Blossom.


    Jun JinRou helplessly looked at the figure that had disappeared at the door, "This girl has caused you trouble."


    "It''s only one or two toys. Take it as a gift from my sister. Would aunt still care about it?" Yun Ruoleng chuckled as he held his handkerchief halfway to his face.

 C230

    She suddenly felt that this woman was truly extraordinary. No matter what she did or how she spoke, she was definitely not a simple person. Just a simple detail was enough to tell that this woman was definitely not a simple person.


    Maybe Jun Qingshang had good eyes.


    Jun Qingshang quickly found out that Jun Jin and Yang Zi Ling had come to the courtyard. Thinking about how his wife had been so bored at home for the past few days, since Yang Zi Ling had come, letting the two girls gather together was more like a comfort to her.


    Jun Qingshang thought, turned around and walked back, dispelling the thought of going to the Warm Pavilion.


    As for Jun JinRou, she sat in her yard with Yang Zizi for two hours before she left. In this hour, Jun Jin and Yun Ruoleng chatted for a long time. If it wasn''t for Jun Qingshang impatiently waiting and sending people to ask, they would have continued their conversation.


    After Jun JinRou left, Jun Qingshang walked over with a solemn face. Yun Ruoleng looked at him with suspicion, "Your highness, who are you arguing with now?"


    Jun Qingshang snorted and ignored him.


    Yun Ruoleng was confused, before, this person only wanted to stick to his body, what happened today? Yun Ruoleng could not help but walk to his side and size him up. Her slender jade fingers lightly poked his arm.


    "Humph!" The Regent was extremely proud, and did not dare to let her leave. Instead, he turned his face to the side and ignored her.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned. What was going on? Could he be jealous? Yun Ruoleng stared at him in this manner. At the beginning, Jun Qingshang did not pay attention to him, but after a long time, Jun Qingshang felt his whole body heating up and felt very uncomfortable. Even if he had self-control, under this kind of gaze, he would not be able to not panic.


    Jun Qingshang''s eyes became serious, she suddenly realized that she was in danger, and wanted to retreat, but it was too late, just as she was about to do so, she was pulled into her embrace, and before she could even open her mouth, she was pressed down on the soft couch.


    "My lord, I was wrong." Yun Ruoleng was regretting that he had messed things up. He had wanted to run after picking them up, but he did not expect it to end before it had even begun.


    Yun Ruoleng could only show weakness, and wanted to seek sympathy, but she never thought that Jun Qingshang would not take advantage of her.


    To prevent himself from suppressing Yun Ruoleng, Jun Qingshang used both of her arms to prop up her strength. Looking down at her like this, Yun Ruoleng pouted her small mouth, and then lightly pushed the person on top of her with her small hands. "Your highness, I''m in an extreme state right now, so you can''t ¡­"


    "This King just wants to have a good look at you." Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, his mood much better when he saw her embarrassed look, "Aren''t you playing me up pretty happily today? There are times when you are afraid? "


    Afraid? Yun Ruoleng didn''t know, she only knew that even if she didn''t mention this matter, he wouldn''t do anything to her.


    However, the light in his eyes from a moment ago was indeed scary. Even if it was only for a split-second, he felt like he was about to be devoured alive.


    Looking at her actions, one could tell that something was wrong. Jun Qingshang quickly got up from her body and took care of all the jade in his body, but there was still a place where he couldn''t calm down.


    Yun Ruoleng was relieved as he laid on the soft couch, luckily he kept them, if not he would do something that would harm the child.


    The awkward smell in the room quickly spread to the door like wind. Peach Red and An Ying subconsciously took a step back to prevent the Duke from using it to vent his anger.


    Jun Qingshang swept a glance at the relaxed little girl lying on the soft couch, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and with one hand on her right side, he leaned over and without waiting for her reaction, fiercely kissed her lips.


    At first, Jun Qingshang was proud of himself, but soon after, he felt that something was wrong, and his body became even hotter. He wanted to pull her down from his body, but Yun Ruoleng was like a gecko, unable to pull her down.


    Jun Qingshang really wanted to get rid of this girl on the spot, but he couldn''t do anything about it.


    Jun Qingshang wanted to think about it, but the last bit of reason told him not to do so, otherwise it would harm her and the child in her womb.


    Yun Ruoleng gasped for breath as he released Jun Qingshang, looking at how he was so emotional yet did not dare to, Yun Ruoleng laughed.


    Jun Qingshang''s face immediately turned black, hearing her giggling, he really couldn''t help but swallow her whole.


    Jun Qingshang coldly snorted as he got up and sat on the other side of the soft couch.


    Yun Ruoleng''s smile froze on his face. His watery phoenix eyes swiveled as he looked at Jun Qingshang with a puzzled expression, "What''s wrong with you now?"


    He felt that this man''s expression changed even faster than if he were to flip a book. The demonic look on his face just now changed again after a short while.


    Of course, Yun Ruoleng still felt a little guilty after asking that question. After all, she was the one who had provoked the fire just now, and she was the only one who was focused on igniting the fire, not thinking about how to extinguish the fire.


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, the flames of desire in his eyes were hard to suppress, just at this time, a voice suddenly sounded out from outside, interrupting the atmosphere in the room.


    "Your Highness, the Emperor summoned you urgently!"


    With a sharp voice, Yun Ruoleng immediately knew who it was. He quickly sat on the soft couch and looked around at Jun Qingshang, wanting to know what was going on. Jun Qingshang frowned. He did not look at him.


    "Sigh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng frowned, "When will you be back?"


    "Let''s see what he says." Jun Qingshang carried Yun Ruoleng and waved goodbye to her before leaving.


    Without Jun Qingshang, the courtyard was much quieter than before. Of course, it wasn''t very lively when Jun Qingshang was here, but there was still a person playing around. Yun Ruoleng sat crossed legged on the soft couch, depressed? He propped his head up. Peach Red waited for Jun Qingshang to leave and quickly went into the room. Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s discouraged appearance, she could not help but laugh: "Young miss, do you want to go for a walk?"


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at her: "Where did Black Robe go after he left me?"


    Peach Blossom was slightly stunned, she looked at Yun Ruoleng puzzledly: "Isn''t Teacher in the death house?"


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head. The House of Death and Regent¡¯s Mansion were both more than half destroyed, and she probably wouldn''t be able to stay here for a while, so Black Robe couldn''t possibly still be living inside. Furthermore, there seemed to be something pulling on her and Black Robe, causing them to be able to feel each other''s proximity, but she couldn''t feel it at all.


    "Miss, don''t even think about it. Although Mister was not injured during the great battle, but judging from his face, he must have consumed a lot of spiritual power and was probably in closed-door training."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, the black robe could wield a strong power that the Dark Mage did not discover, if not for that day, no one would have known that there was still a Mage in the capital!

 C231

    After worrying about Black Robe, Yun Ruoleng started to worry about An Xiang again. Seeing that Peach Blossom looked like she wanted to say something but was hesitating, Yun Ruoleng started to ask An Xiang about An Xiang''s situation.


    An Yue did not know when he was standing behind her, but when she closed the door, she suddenly discovered that there was someone behind her. She subconsciously took a step back and stuck her back against the door.


    "Why is it you!" Peach Blossom lightly patted her chest. Seeing that she was finally able to relax, she angrily glared at him and said, "Why are you standing behind me?"


    "I want to see Master!" An Yue swept his gaze across her, and without saying anything, he directly took a step forward, raised his hand, and knocked the door.


    It was too late for Peach Blossom to stop Yun Ruoleng. who had just laid down heard the knock on the door and asked curiously: "Who is it?"


    "Mistress, I have something important to report."


    Yun Ruoleng''s body quivered as he turned around and sat up from the bed. "Come in!"


    The door slowly opened, and An Yue quickly walked in from outside the hall. He walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and cupped his hands: "Master, Duke Feng went to the palace."


    "The prince also went to the palace." Yun Ruoleng tilted his head and thought for a few seconds.


    Your Highness is afraid of luring us out of the mountain." Shadow said with a serious face, "Although the king values power, he treats his wife very well. Plus, the Lan family has misunderstood you, so I''m afraid he wants to let the king go and make a move on you.


    Hearing that, Yun Ruoleng was a little uncertain in his heart, Jun Qingshang''s guess was not impossible, but it was still possible.


    "Close the door to thank the guest, then wait for His Highness to come back." Yun Ruoleng thought for a long while before he spoke.


    An Yue nodded his head: "I''ve already instructed the prince when we left the house."


    This mansion has a total of three formations, and the outermost layer is made from top-grade magic power. If one wanted to break through, he or she had to be extremely powerful. A second iron chain dragon had appeared, but that was a magic formation that could defend against thousands of enemies. Even if the first one was broken, it would be hard to break through the second one, let alone the third one.


    Yun Ruoleng''s words did not make any sense, but for her safety, An Yue did not heave a sigh of relief. Looking at her slightly exhausted face, her eyes flashed: "Since that''s the case, master will first sleep for a while, this subordinate will guard here."


    Yun Ruoleng earnestly looked at him, and felt that he was a little too paranoid. Worried was too much, but being vigilant was not a bad thing, and on the other hand, she, who was carrying a child and did not dare to be too tired, was already extremely tired. Her gaze swept towards An Yue who was meditating by the side, and finally yawned before falling asleep on the bed.


    Jun Qingshang''s guess was right. After Jun Qingfeng angrily entered the palace, he complained to the little Emperor and scolded Yun Ruoleng once. He then said that the Regent had protected the culprit and let the Emperor decide the matter.


    It was impossible for Jun Rushi to protect Yun Ruoleng, because if he did, it would disturb the imperial court. Therefore, Jun Rushi allowed Jun Qingshang to enter the palace to confront him. Of course, as for why Yun Ruoleng was not allowed to face off, this was already well-prepared in the little Emperor''s heart. Was he thinking that even if his royal uncle took action, he wouldn''t be able to deal with a Wind King?


    The moment Jun Qingshang stepped into the imperial study, Jun Qingfeng threw herself in front of him, grabbed his collar and said: "Jun Qingshang, I''ll make you pay with your blood!"


    "The emperor is wise and will return you justice. As for now ¡­" Jun Qingshang''s gaze landed on the hand he was pulling at his own collar. "If you don''t want to die, then let this duke go!"


    "Humph!" Jun Qingfeng''s heart trembled. Jun Qingshang''s aura was too strong, a single glance from him was enough to make his heart tremble, but his face gave a cold snort. The hand that was pulling on his collar slowly loosened.


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze moved from Jun Qingfeng''s body to Jun Rushi''s. The imperial study room was completely silent, and after a long while, Jun Qingshang asked, "Does Your Majesty believe in Ruo Er?"


    "Aunty Huang is not stupid, why would she kill people in her own territory? Besides, when did this Lan Dufei and Imperial Aunt become so familiar? " Jun Rushi''s curious words immediately lured the blame towards the dead Lan Shuangfei.


    Jun Qingfeng had already prepared for this, so naturally, the uncle and nephew duo would go and find a helper, and his helper would be the righteous Chief Judge of the Board of Justice, Dong Qingyu. Just that Master Dong was also someone who protected his own safety, and with Feng Wang wanting to make use of this matter, he was unhappy.


    After Jun Qingfeng brought Dong Qing Yu over, he stood in the hall and did not understand. Jun Qingfeng looked at him and knew that Dong Qing Yu would not be able to help him in this matter.


    "Your Majesty''s words are wrong!" Jun Qingfeng said coldly: "Yu''er has a kind heart, after knowing that the Regent Prince''s wife is pregnant and injured, she wanted to take the place of the Feng Family to see her, after all, she is the one in charge here, so she doesn''t seem too rude to us, but who would have thought that the Prince''s wife would be so vicious, to actually let her servant girl assassinate her."


    "We should know more about the assassination of the Wind King than I do." Jun Qingshang laughed coldly: "Don''t even think about setting up a mechanism or array in the courtyard, even Ruo Er doesn''t dare to walk around carelessly. For a person who has just arrived to actually ask to walk around the courtyard? Ruo Er had asked her to leave many times but she was still unwilling.


    "What do you mean?" Jun Qingfeng''s expression immediately darkened, "Who knows if she''s allowed to leave or not, we''ll just kill her to pay with our lives. Since something happened in your residence, you have to give this duke an explanation, or else don''t blame this king for not holding back!"


    "Are you angry with me?" Jun Qingshang looked at Jun Qingfeng with a smile that was not a smile: "Do you think this king''s courtyard is that easy to break into? Ever since Ruo Er was assassinated twice, this king has spent so much effort to set up a series of array formations with this master that even this king can''t open. Do you think your people can do it? "


    Jun Qingfeng''s expression sunk bit by bit. The little emperor sitting on the dragon throne yawned, and waved his hands at the two of them: "What the hell do I think happened! So it turns out that the secondary wife of the three royal uncle s had unlucky deaths in the side courtyard of the seven royal uncle s. This stroll in the side courtyard wasn''t said by the Seventh Imperial Aunt, it was her own.


    "It''s just an excuse to show off." Jun Qingshang sneered, as his expression eased up a little.


    Being talked about like this by Jun Qingshang caused his face to turn hot, the anger in his heart immediately burned. Just as he was about to speak up, he heard the little Emperor say: "This matter is over, don''t bring up this matter anymore."


    "Then... Just leave it at that? " Jun Qingfeng looked at Jun Rushi in disbelief. Wasn''t this little emperor a little too reckless?


    Jun Rushi frowned, her exquisite little face flashed with a trace of chilliness and the unparalleled dignity of a ruler: "What more does royal uncle want? Could she, a main wife, brazenly kill a side concubine like you? In addition, the Lan Clan''s Concubine Lan has brought this upon herself. No one can blame her for this! "

 C232

    Jun Qingfeng''s hands, which were placed at his sides, uncontrollably tightened. In the end, he did not say a single word, and left with a cold snort. Jun Rushi was not angry, but instead looked at Jun Qingshang with a bit of worry. "royal uncle, he wouldn''t really want to attack the courtyard house, right?"


    The other courtyard wasn''t a place where one could fight just because they wanted to. It wasn''t like he, Jun Qingshang, was an idiot, he wasn''t fully prepared, how could he let Ruo Er stay in the Duke Palace alone. Jun Qingshang only shook his head at the little Emperor, "You should still worry about yourself! Right now, his wings have yet to grow, so you must think of a way to suppress him. You should do this yourself.


    Jun Rushi nodded, Ling Wang had been silent recently, no one knew what he was planning, but he was not worried, and it would not be too late to take care of Jun Qingling first.


    Jun Rushi was the little emperor who had his own plans, Jun Qingshang had always known about it.


    After the uncle and nephew duo angrily angered Jun Qingfeng to leave, Jun Qingshang was still worried, and followed to bid farewell to the palace. The more he thought about what had happened today, the more he felt that something was wrong. Facing Jun Qingfeng''s accusations, Jun Rushi felt that there must be something off about this matter, but he just did not know what the Seventh royal uncle was planning.


    Jun Qingfeng came out of the palace, he quickly returned to the Wind King''s Mansion, and gathered a group of people to sit down in the study. He did not know that what he had done was seen by a servant, the servant had an ordinary appearance, and was not easily discovered.


    When Jun Qingshang returned to the courtyard, he was already awake. The moment he heard that Jun Qingshang had returned, he couldn''t help but go find him. Jun Qingshang looked at the person who had rushed over in a flurry, and couldn''t help but raise his eyebrows: "My beloved concubine, are you missing this king?"


    "Just now, there were a lot of people outside, did Jun Qingfeng make his move?" Yun Ruoleng was even more worried for him, she tugged at his sleeves and sized him up, only then did she discover that there were no traces of a fight on his body, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, "Jun Qingfeng went to find the Emperor for a fight?"


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head then shook it, "It''s not a disturbance, it''s to force the Emperor to hand you over."


    "Ha!" Yun Ruoleng''s face became gloomy, this Jun Qingfeng really did not change his dead nature, he thought he was an item! You can give it to whoever you want? Wasn''t it just the death of an unimportant side concubine? If you have the ability, you should know what the consequences will be.


    Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, and gently patted her back. "Your husband will not hand you over to him."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head in Jun Qingshang''s embrace. She obviously knew that Jun Qingshang would not give her to that baddy, Jun Qingfeng.


    Yun Ruoleng''s worries were not superfluous at all. The spy Jun Qingshang left behind at the Wind King''s Mansion had returned, and he had even brought back a secret. Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng entered the study together, listening to the news the spy brought back. Yun Ruoleng was curious, what kind of ability did the Wind King have to fight against Jun Qingshang?


    "Have you already expected this?" Yun Ruoleng pondered over the problem, and when she came back to her senses, Jun Qingshang had already started to make his plans for the battle, causing him to become curious.


    Jun Qingshang slightly nodded her head: "Jun Qingfeng wanting to usurp power and authority isn''t something that can be done in a day or two. I thought that he would definitely make his move for this banquet, so I had prepared these things long ago."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, it turned out that Jun Qingshang had such a prophetic ability, causing her to have a whole new level of respect for him.


    Jun Qingshang knew that she wanted to go astray, but he did not correct her. Instead, he felt that his woman was extremely proud of him. Yun Ruoleng looked at the palace map in his hand, he touched his chin in curiosity, then looked at the few red dots marked on the map, his jade-like fingers probed: "Hao, these places are rather sinister, do you want to prepare to set up camp here?"


    Jun Qingshang glanced at the marked place, and his gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng''s face in shock: "Ruo Er is so smart, I don''t even know how to reward you."


    "Bitch!" Yun Ruoleng covered his face and chuckled, he then pointed to a spot on the lake surface: "This road leads straight to the Serenity Hall, don''t you plan to arrange a group of people here?"


    "The peace hall is arranged by the emperor himself. The place I''ve arranged for it isn''t an important place, but it can keep the emperor safe." After Jun Qingshang finished speaking, he reached out and pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, allowing her to sit on his body. His hand that was distinct from bones rested on her stomach, which was already slightly protruding, just that the month was still young, and could not be seen.


    Yun Ruoleng''s small hand covered his big hands as he looked at Jun Qingshang with suspicion, "Why is Your Highness frowning and distressed?"


    Jun Qingshang did not say anything. Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s small open and close mouth, the tanned beautiful eyes slightly narrowed. Yun Ruoleng did not see it, he only felt his hand becoming more and more irregular as it drilled into his clothes. "You ¡­"


    "The Imperial Physician Shang said that it will be fine." Jun Qingshang placed his lower jaw on Yun Ruoleng''s slender shoulders, and his thin lips just happened to be next to her rosy ears. When he opened his mouth to speak, hot air reached his ears straight, causing Yun Ruoleng''s entire body to tremble.


    "Then this is also daytime ¡­" Yun Ruoleng really wanted to beat him up. In the daytime, he actually didn''t talk about proper business in the study room and did all this.


    Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly, her lips slightly opening to contain her round earlobes, she vaguely said: "Now, let''s have some food, we''ll eat it tonight."


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng pushed away his head with all his might and quickly escaped from his embrace.


    She didn''t know how coquettish she looked like just now, but when Jun Qingshang saw the person in his arms escape from him, he felt both angry and amused. Looking at her disappearing figure, he shook his head helplessly.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face was still red when she returned to the Warm Pavilion. The cold wind outside had not even cooled her down yet. Peach Red was helping her tidy up the bed, seeing Yun Ruoleng return with a red face, she asked curiously: "Miss, what''s wrong? Are you sick? "


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at her in annoyance: "Do your thing!"


    Tao Hong was not angry. After finishing all the things in her hand, she walked in front of Yun Ruoleng and chuckled: "Young miss could it be that you have been teased by the Prince again?"


    "You damn girl!" With his identity exposed, Yun Ruoleng was slightly angry as she reached out her hand to attack.


    Peach Blossom quickly jumped away and said smilingly, "This servant has just made a osmanthus cake, so I''ll take it for you!"


    Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly and ignored her. Peach Blossom did not say anything further and turned to leave.

 C233

    With Peach Blossom gone, Yun Ruoleng was the only one left in the room. When he was alone, he would naturally think of a few things, and Yun Ruoleng was no exception.


    Yun Ruoleng''s mind was stuck on Jun Qingshang''s ghostly face, thinking about it, he suddenly felt his mind turning blank, following that, an even more exquisite face appeared in his mind.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the man in front of him. His phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.


    "Cough, cough!" After getting caught secretly, Jun Qingshang coughed lightly in slight embarrassment. His eyes slightly flashed, and he did not hurriedly reply to Yun Ruoleng''s words.


    Jun Qingshang''s embarrassed look was funny to Yun Ruoleng, but in order not to get caught, he pursed his lips, but found it hard to hide the smile in his eyes. Jun Qingshang coldly glanced at her, and said with a calm voice. "This king is very funny?"


    Yun Ruoleng quickly waved his hand and said with a straight face, "Your Highness is at ease, how can it be funny? "Besides, I''m not laughing. Which eyes of yours is smiling again at this wangfei?"


    "Oh?" Jun Qingshang suddenly leaned towards Yun Ruoleng: "Did I see wrongly?"


    "Of course!" Yun Ruoleng was extremely pleased with himself and he was unable to hide it for a moment.


    Jun Qingshang snorted: "This is what you call getting your way! "Don''t tell me you don''t have one, I''ll know if you have a thief''s smile on your face."


    "Cough, cough." Yun Ruoleng covered the corner of his mouth with his hand to hide his embarrassment and smiled slightly: "I didn''t do it on purpose, this grandpa doesn''t want to bicker with this little girl."


    Jun Qingshang glanced at her, he then got up and walked over to the table: "The tea is cold, let''s have someone change the pot!"


    Jun Qingshang waved his hands, walked across the table and stood firmly in front of the clothes cabinet, then casually opened the cabinet. Inside was the clothes that were full, Jun Qingshang took a glance at his clothes and frowned slightly: "Have you prepared the clothes that will enter the palace in half a month''s time?"


    "These things are all taken care of by Cui Ying, I won''t ask too much." Yun Ruoleng pondered for a moment, then said: "I don''t know why, but Cui Ying has been getting busier and busier lately, and my eyelids have been jumping more and more."


    Jun Qingshang closed the cabinet, his gaze gently landed on Yun Ruoleng, and smiled in consolation: "I think something good is about to happen, don''t worry."


    Not worried? Yun Ruoleng did not let her guard down, instead, she was burdened with a heavy burden. As for why this was the case, she could not explain it herself, but in order to not let Jun Qingshang worry about her, she reluctantly nodded her head.


    In the blink of an eye, another half a month had passed. Another half a month had passed in the capital. However, behind this tranquility was a conspiracy; this conspiracy was slowly approaching the grand palace.


    An ordinary carriage slowly entered the capital. Because it was so ordinary, no one noticed it. The horse carriage headed towards the imperial palace, but it did not enter the imperial palace.


    A few days ago, Jun Qingshang had brought his wife back to the Duke Palace, and the place where the carriage stopped was exactly the Duke Palace.


    "Who is it?" The guard looked at the carriage in alert. There was a man in black sitting outside the carriage with half of his face covered in a silver mask. The other half of his face was very ordinary, so the guard was naturally more cautious since he had never seen this person before.


    "Little Brother, help me pass on a message that Feng Dong has come to visit the wangfei." The two guards looked at each other, then looked at the black-clothed man and then at the closed door of the carriage. Only then did one of them go in and inform one of them to stand guard at the door.


    In the midst of the Water Spirit Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng lazily laid on the chair and sat under the sunlight while reading a book. Hearing the hurried sounds outside, Yun Ruoleng impatiently put down the book in his hand: "What''s wrong?"


    "Feng Dong requests to see the wangfei." Peach Red walked to her side and squatted down while asking, "Who is this Feng Dong? This servant only feels that he is familiar and doesn''t know who it is, so I didn''t dare to let him in. "


    "What''s coming is finally coming." Yun Ruoleng raised the corner of her lips, her exquisite features becoming even more enchanting under the sunlight, even Peach Blossom who was used to seeing this face couldn''t help but choke back her saliva.


    "Then ¡­ then is Miss going to meet me or not?" Tao Hong shook her head, trying to prevent herself from being bewitched by Yun Ruoleng.


    "If you don''t see, just say that this wangfei isn''t here." Yun Ruoleng stopped smiling and laughed, he did not know what the man wanted to do, but the moment he entered the capital, he immediately ran over to her Regent¡¯s Mansion. Firstly, he was not looking for the Regent, but for her.


    Peach Blossom naturally didn''t know about Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts. After all, her brain wasn''t sharp enough and her thoughts weren''t far away, so she naturally only knew a little about a lot of things. When Yun Ruoleng said he didn''t want to see her, she really refused.


    Since the Phoenix Map had reached the capital, Yun Ruoleng could no longer stay idle. She called An Yue over and told him to quickly find Jun Qingshang and bring him back. After An Yue left, Yun Ruoleng entered his own small study room to put down the book in his hands. At this time, An Xiang walked in and looked at Yun Ruoleng who looked like he wanted to say something but was hesitating to speak.


    "If you have something to say, just say it. What you are hesitating about is not your character." Yun Ruoleng coldly glanced at her, his tone somewhat impatient.


    "Esteemed wangfei, the prince has some matters to attend to outside the city today. Where are you telling An Yue to go and find him?" The reason why An Xiang was hesitating was because he was afraid that Yun Ruoleng would blame her earlier.


    Yun Ruoleng stared at her flustered expression for a long while before finally opening his mouth: "No wonder."


    No wonder? An Xiang heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, was also puzzled. Yun Ruoleng naturally wouldn''t explain it to her, and waved her off. "If An Yue doesn''t find anyone, then don''t go, you go out first."


    An Xiang replied as she obediently left. Yun Ruoleng sat in front of the table, her small hands touching her stomach, her mind constantly flashing with the image of Jun Qingshang leaving the house in a hurry this morning. She thought that something big must have happened, otherwise, he would not be in such a hurry.


    Although Yun Ruoleng did not know what happened, but she knew that he would not be in a hurry if it wasn''t a big matter.


    Yun Ruoleng sent someone to call in the guards who had sent the message just now. The guards in the Duke Palaces were not ordinary guards, they were all well-trained, and the guards who had been called in to pass the message were all dressed in actual attire as they respectfully bowed towards Yun Ruoleng.


    "Stand up!" Yun Ruoleng twirled the brush in his hand, and his gaze landed on the guard: "Did that person come alone or did he bring a group of people?"


    "There were two of them. I''m not sure who was in the carriage. He never came out, but he was being driven by a person wearing a silver mask. He doesn''t look like someone to be trifled with."

 C234

    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, looks like he had entered the city on his own, then Jun Qingshang would still not know about it. However, the guards at the Duke Palaces should have already sent out the news, he would be back before long. After Yun Ruoleng sent the guards away, he sat on his seat and started to seriously think.


    Peach Blossom came in and changed to two cups of tea, but Yun Ruoleng wasn''t sure.


    In a forest on the outskirts of Beijing, four or five bodies were lying on the ground. Black smoke was still coming out of their bodies, making them look a little scared. Jun Qingshang, who was dressed entirely in black, held on to his Blood Drinking Sword and stood beside the corpse, looking at the people on the ground. Behind him were seven to eight masked men dressed in black, who were all on guard.


    "Mistress, this is a Dark Mage. I didn''t expect them to intercept us midway."


    "It''s just a matter of delaying us." Jun Qingshang''s stern face flashed with a hint of coldness, "Pass the order, continue to Jing Cheng!"


    "But ¡­" For some reason, he felt that at this moment, the prince was exceptionally terrifying, like an Asura.


    "Hmm?" Jun Qingshang squinted, his expression gloomy.


    "Yes sir!"


    Jun Qingshang got on his horse and clenched his horse''s belly. He ordered: "Let''s go!"


    Treading on the snow, he could understand the human nature. He didn''t need to use the horsewhip to start running. As if sensing that his master was in a hurry, he ran. The dark guard saw this and quickly rode the horse to catch up with Dudian.


    After Jun Qingshang left the capital, he felt a little uneasy. He was afraid that these people would find out that he had not attacked Yun Ruoleng while he was still in the capital, so he had to return to the capital as soon as possible.


    Jun Qingshang''s worries were not unnecessary. Within the Duke Palaces, the moment Yun Ruoleng found out that Jun Qingshang was not in the capital, he started to feel uneasy. At ten in the afternoon, Yun Ruoleng was summoning the servants from the Water Spirit Pavilion to set up a barbecue rack in the courtyard, preparing to barbeque for lunch. Originally, he was very happy but he didn''t expect that when he was just about to barbecue, a wave of spirit energy would rush over.


    Fortunately, there were three formations used in the entire palace. The outermost defensive formation was instantly activated, deflecting the spiritual energy away. The Water Spirit Pavilion suddenly shook a bit. If not for Peach Red''s support, Yun Ruoleng probably would have directly fallen to the ground.


    "Protect the wangfei!" An Yue and An Xiang had surrounded Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng furrowed his brows, looked at the dozen or so black-robed men standing on top of the Water Spirit Pavilion, and more than twenty An Ying Guards instantly appeared within the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    "Mistress, let''s enter the room first!" An Yue reached out to help him, but was opened by Yun Ruoleng.


    "Since this group of people is here, they will definitely not let it go!" Yun Ruoleng waited for An Yue: "I''ll sit here and see how they''ll break the array!"


    "Miss, this is not the time to be willful ¡­" Peach Blossom frowned, she wanted to persuade Yun Ruoleng, but how could Yun Ruoleng listen to her? The more he persuaded her, the more stubborn he became.


    Yun Ruoleng''s rejection of Peach Blossom caused Peach Blossom to become anxious. An Yue and An Xiang carried their swords and looked up, the black clothed man possessed power, they were constantly using their powers to attack the outermost layer of defense, the formation condensed with spirit energy did not even budge an inch, the black clothed man did not give up, the black ball in his hands struck everywhere. Yun Ruoleng just stared at them in a demonic manner, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as though he was ridiculing them.


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to have seen through the other party''s intentions for a long time, with a snap of his fingers, the sky rumbled. In the previously clear sky, there was a flash of thunder that quickly covered the dark clouds, and from time to time, a flash of lightning could be seen.


    Peach Blossom was so scared that she covered her head and hid beside Yun Ruoleng: "Miss, why did you change so easily today?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, his eyes did not carry any emotion as he looked at the dense black clouds in the sky, Peach Blossom raised her head and looked up at the sky, puzzled.


    "Boom!" A bolt of lightning fell from the sky and landed on the black clothed man''s body. The black clothed man let out a blood-curdling screech as his entire body was charred.


    Yun Ruoleng was also shocked, she raised her head and looked at the dark sky, if she was not mistaken, this was the second array formation opening. The second formation was activated at the same time as the first formation. He didn''t know if it would be able to repel a person or not.


    An Yue and An Xiang looked at each other, then kept the swords in their hands. These people did not need them to clean up, they could even kill array formations, what was there to clean up?


    Yun Ruoleng wasn''t as optimistic as An Yue and An Xiang. Watching the two formations activate at the same time, Yun Ruoleng''s heart tightened into a ball. Yun Ruoleng did not know what use this second array had, but looking at the lightning that fell from the sky, Yun Ruoleng frowned even more, it seemed that this group of people would not let this matter rest.


    More and more black clothed men were struck by lightning. Yun Ruoleng''s brows were also knitted tighter. Her memory wasn''t bad at all. The main thing was that this array was so difficult to open, so she couldn''t open it for a while. She had already forgotten the array''s greatest weakness.


    Peach Red stood at Yun Ruoleng''s side, her entire body trembling. Yun Ruoleng originally wanted to advise her, but when she thought about the weakness of the formation, she lost the mood to. As time passed second by second, because of the movement of the Regent¡¯s Mansion, the entire capital was shaken, everyone was panic-stricken.


    In the study room of the Wind King''s Mansion, Jun Qingfeng had been sending people to watch over the Regent¡¯s Mansion. After finding out about this, he stood with his hands behind his back, facing the window facing the Regent¡¯s Mansion, looking at the dark clouds above the prince''s mansion. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, he was afraid that the dark witches would take revenge on the Regent¡¯s Mansion this time.


    In the Imperial Palace, the little Emperor had sent his imperial guards to rescue her. After all, the Regent had been sent to the capital and wouldn''t be able to return for a while. Yun Ruoleng was even carrying Jun Qingshang''s child, and this was the first child that she doted on the most, so how could she not be worried? Thus, the empress dowager sent out her own secret guard.


    The Great Sima Residence was even more direct. They had sent the entire imperial guards over in order to exterminate the dark Magi in order to protect the manor.


    Yun Ruoleng and An Xiang both looked at the sky above the Duke Palaces at the same time with a hint of rare ease in their eyes. No one noticed that Yun Ruoleng''s expression had become uglier and uglier, and even more so, no one noticed that Yun Ruoleng''s brows were furrowing even tighter.


    "Esteemed wangfei, the Great Sima and the emperor''s guards have all come. So what if we have one!" Uncle Po hurriedly ran into the Water Spirit Pavilion s from outside, rubbing his hands and smiling as he spoke.


    Yun Ruoleng stared fixedly at the sky and his brows unconsciously relaxed a little, but he still did not completely relax.


    An Xiang looked at Yun Ruoleng doubtfully, "Is the wangfei frightened by this?"


    "Definitely!" Peach Blossom trembled, squatted down and held Yun Ruoleng''s hand: "Miss, let''s go in! It''s a nightmare to watch the night so bloody. "

 C235

    Yun Ruoleng slowly withdrew her gaze and looked at Peach Blossom. Maybe she was really scared, the hand she was holding on to was still trembling, her face was pale white, her eyes were watery and her pupils were contracted. Yun Ruoleng looked at her and laughed, then clenched her Peach Blossom and said, "Don''t be afraid, let''s go inside!"


    "Yes, yes." Peach Blossom really wanted to go back to the house immediately. From her point of view, the house was much safer than the courtyard. At least she couldn''t see any fights.


    With the help of the city guards and the imperial guards, the Regent¡¯s Mansion quickly returned to normal. Although no one was left alive, no one was able to escape. After Yun Ruoleng finally coaxed Peach Blossom back to sleep, he walked out of her room and coincidentally met An Ying who was bringing food back.


    An Ying heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Yun Ruoleng was safe and sound. He respectfully handed a bag to Yun Ruoleng and said, "Wangfei, stay in the Duke''s Palace for the next three days.


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at him coldly: "If you want to kill me, he''ll think of thousands of ways. After all, there are a lot of people who are related to me outside."


    "Then ¡­"


    "I''m just saying, if he really dares to make a move, I''ll definitely be rude to him!" Yun Ruoleng raised his hand to interrupt An Ying''s words, and his gaze landed on the bundle in his hands. Only now did he remember that Jun Qingshang had not spoken a single word when he left this time, "Your Highness, have you gone far away?"


    "Prince brought some people to Jingcheng. It seems like Prince Jing was seriously ill. He was sent by the empress dowager to take a look." An Ying''s eyes flashed, and did not dare to look straight into Yun Ruoleng''s eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng took in the entirety of his expression, and nodded without batting an eyelid: "Since that''s the case, when we return, let''s not talk about the Duke Palaces anymore, in case he gets worried."


    "You won''t let your subordinate say that this will make it difficult for your subordinate ¡­"


    "You said it''s more difficult." Yun Ruoleng interrupted him coldly. "You said that Your Highness would be back halfway through the journey, if the empress dowager knew, she would definitely think that His Highness did not care about brotherly feelings for a woman, causing the empress dowager to dislike me. Your Highness was also misunderstood."


    "This ¡­" When An Ying heard Yun Ruoleng''s explanation, his thoughts started to waver. He thought that the Duke Palace was only attacked, and because of the formation, there was not a single loss in the Palace, adding the death of so many Dark Magi, it would take a while before he came back. The Duke had only been in Jing Cheng to see King Jing for two to three days, so it wouldn''t be too late for him to say that he came back.


    It was difficult for Yun Ruoleng to explain someone as silly as An Ying, but luckily, Yun Ruoleng knew of his weakness and was able to hit it easily.


    After sending An Ying away, Yun Ruoleng immediately took action, allowing An Yue to bring all the books on dark Magi to Water Spirit Pavilion''s study room, she studied them one by one.


    Dark Magi were the same as witches, they were not of the same race, but because they all had the power of sorcery, therefore they became witches. Dark Magi, on the other hand, were those who had the power of darkness, and they were all called Dark Magi.


    The spiritual power of the Dark Mage came from the Dark Night, which was located in the valley. However, this kind of canyon would usually never see the sun, and would never see a single blade of grass growing in the valley. Therefore, the Dark Mages were very envious of the Shamans, and the reason why they wrapped black or dark things around their bodies was to prevent the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth from being soaked in sunlight.


    "The dark Magi are a type of witch clan, but the things they absorb are different. Later on, they found a way to change their fate and started to kill the witch clan." Seeing that she had investigated so painstakingly, An Yue could not help but start to explain, "The Dark Mage Tribe obtained this information from somewhere. As long as they kill all the Shaman Tribe members, they can leave the darkness and the desert."


    "Then why do these people keep chasing after the Regent?" Yun Ruoleng was really curious, the phoenix jade on his body was concealing his presence of Shaman Energy. Let alone these small fries, even Black Robe did not notice it, every time he saw me, I was not allowed to bring that jade.


    Therefore, Yun Ruoleng believed that these people were definitely not here to look for her. As to why they were attacking the Regent¡¯s Mansion today, it was probably because they wanted to use him to threaten Jun Qingshang.


    "Three witch girls died in the capital every year, all killed by Dark Magi." An Yue felt a lingering fear as he thought about this, and couldn''t help but take another look at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng was completely unsettled by her stare. She glared at him unhappily: What are you looking at me for?


    An Yue pressed her fist against her lips and coughed, "After the Royal Highness found out about it, he started to kill all the Dark Mages without restraint, to the point that ¡­"


    "I understand!" With a "pa" sound, Yun Ruoleng closed the book, supported her chin with both hands and coldly laughed: "No wonder so many people wanted his life, so it was for this matter! "It seems like these dark Magi are also very smart, and would rather fight than sit still and wait for death!"


    "That''s right, that''s why we have the current Wind King and Ling King." The usually quiet An Yue started to talk a lot today, chattering non-stop about all of this.


    The more Yun Ruoleng heard, the more interested he felt. So it turns out that Jun Qingshang''s two brothers used Dark Magi to attack him! In the end, he didn''t count as them. The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth rose slightly, he did not know if these two would bring harm to him.


    After Yun Ruoleng figured out why Jun Qingshang was being hunted, he waved his hand at An Yue. "I''ve been tired for most of the day, why don''t you find a place to sleep?


    "Esteemed wangfei ¡­" An Yue frowned, why is he always thinking of being chased around by people!


    Yun Ruoleng laughed lightly, yawned, and walked out. Helpless, An Yue could only send her to the door and left.


    Cui Ying stood at the door of the room, as if he had been waiting for a while. When he saw Yun Ruoleng, he was extremely excited: "Miss, Uncle Pu sent someone to say that he found the person who placed the glass bead last time."


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows. Found it? It wasn''t as if there was no news at all. How could they have found him after a battle?


    "Lead the way!" Yun Ruoleng did not want to miss out on such a good show. Although it was rather dramatic, she was curious. In a place that Cui Ying did not see, the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth rose.


    There was a person kneeling in the hall. This person was wearing the clothes of a third-rate maidservant. There was a hairpin in his hair. His head was buried and his body was involuntarily trembling. Yun Ruoleng walked into the hall and nodded towards Uncle Pu, who saw that Yun Ruoleng had arrived. Uncle Pu immediately said: "Before Your Highness left, you intentionally set a trap, and did not think that this lowly servant would actually fall into your trap."


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng walked to the side of the servant and stood still.


    Cui Ying immediately stood in front of Yun Ruoleng to block her, and cautiously looked at the servant girl on the ground: "Princess is pregnant, how can we possibly stay away from her?"

 C236

    Yun Ruoleng was amused by Cui Ying''s actions. He extended his hand and patted her shoulder, signalling her not to worry.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded resolutely to her, then retracted his arm, then respectfully retreated to the side. However, she was still on guard as she looked at the trembling servant girl on the ground.


    Yun Ruoleng half squatted, his gaze landed on the pearl hairpin above the servant''s head, and then nodded.


    Seeing her confused reaction, Uncle Po followed Yun Ruoleng and sat on the seat of honor with an inquiring look. Yun Ruoleng saw his curiosity and opened his mouth: "I only saw that pearl hairpin was a new style from this year''s Capital City and it was even very expensive. It seems that this girl needs to spend two to three years'' worth of wages to be able to afford it, so I was a little curious. Don''t laugh at me, Uncle. "


    "Hur hur." Uncle Po smiled benevolently and said, "Royal Concubine''s thoughts are meticulous. This subordinate admires her greatly, so how could I laugh?"


    "Uncle Pu actually said that. Then I''ll have to trouble Uncle Pu to search through this wangfei''s room to see if there''s any useful evidence. By the way, I''ve searched every nook and cranny, including the Dark Pavilion."


    "Yes sir!" As a housekeeper in the Regent¡¯s Mansion, finding a few guards to rob the house was naturally not a problem for Uncle Pu, and Yun Ruoleng was also relieved.


    When the servant heard that Yun Ruoleng wanted to rob the house, she became even more anxious. She raised her head slightly, her long and narrow willow eyes made Yun Ruoleng feel uncomfortable, and her gaze darkened. Cui Ying curiously looked at Yun Ruoleng, and thought, what''s wrong with Miss? Not like her.


    Of course Yun Ruoleng would not let others know why she was a little angry, he could not say that it was because of her pair of eyes! The temperature in the hall dropped drastically, the kneeling servant girl on the ground trembled even more. Uncle Pu took a while to carry a tray into the hall and placed it on the small plate beside Yun Ruoleng.


    "Princess, these are the jewels and silk found in this girl''s room."


    Yun Ruoleng swept a glance, and the corner of his mouth raised a little. If she was not mistaken, all of these things were worth a lot, there were not many servants with such wealth, not to mention she was a third grade maid cleaner?


    Yun Ruoleng picked out a hairpin from the plate, and looked at it carefully, then suddenly looked at her with interest: "This is a Treasure Pavilion, although it''s not this year''s new, but it was unique last year, it is said that this hairpin was bought by the Wind King, so it''s all for you!"


    "No, it''s not like that ¡­" The young maid raised her head and said in a terrified voice, "This ¡­ This hairpin was given to you by your highness after I led the way for you."


    "Lead the way?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, with the hairpin between his index and middle finger, he threw it towards the servant like a dart, causing the hairpin to pierce into the wood, just right in front of the servant. The servant girl was shocked as she sat down on the ground and stared dumbly at the hairpin on the ground.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly raised his head and looked at Uncle Pu. After looking around him once, he asked, "How did Uncle Pu manage to catch her?"


    "Just now, this subordinate had sent someone to clean up the mess, and I just so happened to see that girl run into the Water Spirit Pavilion''s tea room. Uncle Po grew more and more angry as he spoke, his fierce eyes staring at the trembling man on the ground for a long time.


    Yun Ruoleng held his head and looked at her with a smile that was not a smile: "So you were just grabbing a bag! "Then I''ll be troubling Uncle Po. No matter what the method is, I have to find out some information related to Wind King."


    "Princess, please be at ease. Your subordinate has a hundred ways to make her speak." Uncle Po cupped his hands: "Someone come! Take her to the underground prison! "


    Yun Ruoleng knew about the Regent¡¯s Mansion Underground Prison but he had never seen it before. It was said that it was dark and humid, and those who went in could forget about coming out.


    Yun Ruoleng was curious if this little girl could hold on until Jun Qingshang came back. After settling the matter, Yun Ruoleng felt physically and mentally exhausted, so he stretched his body and went back to his room to sleep under Cui Ying''s care. Recently, he had enjoyed sleeping even more, and did not know if this was good or bad, in short, the imperial physician did not say anything.


    Jun Qingshang travelled through the night and arrived at Jing City at noon of the second day. This was the largest city in the Heaven''s Enlightenment Continent, this was a city filled with abundant resources. He led his horse and his men inside.


    "Prince, should we go directly to King Jing''s Estate or find a place to wash up?" An Ying was not present, but An Yue had been transferred away. The person who followed beside Jun Qingshang today was called Hei Yun, and compared to the two of them, this person''s personality was unrestrained and unrestrained. His childish face always had a smile, making him look especially adorable.


    "Duke Mansion!" Jun Qingshang''s thin lips slightly lifted. Her footsteps did not stop as she walked straight towards the Jing King Manor. Dark Cloud''s mouth twitched as he kept up with his pace. He cautiously looked at the crowd, and discovered that the crowd here was the same as the crowd in other places. There were countless girls, and all of their eyes were glued to his body.


    He was worried for Yun Ruoleng in his heart, but he didn''t dare show the slightest hint of worry on his face.


    Under the guidance of the dark cloud, Jun Qingshang arrived at the biggest mansion in the center of the city, "Jing Wang Manor". Jun Qingshang immediately revealed his order badge and the two attendants looked at each other in dismay, not daring to stop him. When the butler from the Duke Palaces saw Jun Qingshang, he immediately went forward to lead the way, "Your Highness has finally arrived. That day when the Duke Palaces were assassinated, and the Duke Palaces were injured, although it wasn''t too severe, the doctor said that it was due to the Dark Witch energy. If we can''t find a purer type of Shaman Energy, then we''ll die in ten days.


    "Dark Cloud, take the command medallion to the Sacred Palace and invite a purer elder here!" Jun Qingshang threw the order badge to Dark Cloud, and asked with a gloomy face: "Where''s Princess Wan Xue?"


    "Princess, she''s in the backyard!" "You came in a hurry and I have already sent someone to invite you."


    Jun Qingshang didn''t answer and walked towards the courtyard where Jun Qingjing lived in large strides. Coincidentally, he met the late Huang Wanxue at the courtyard''s entrance, and when Huang Wanxue slightly nodded to him, he was too lazy to even bow, as he walked into the courtyard with his head held high and his chest held high.


    Jun Qingjing frowned slightly, but relaxed after a while. He did not care much about etiquette, maybe because after staying with Yun Ruoleng for a while, he had become more indifferent to etiquette. He felt that it was ordinary, but the butler didn''t think so. He was afraid that his wangfei would anger this person, hence he kept looking at Jun Qingshang''s expression.


    Jun Qingshang coldly glanced at him for a moment before he withdrew his gaze and carefully followed behind Jun Qingshang.


    As he stepped into Jun Qingjing''s room, a faint medicinal smell wafted into his nose. Jun Qingshang followed Huang Wanxue into the room, and when he saw the pale-faced Jun Qingjing lying on the bed, he couldn''t help but frown: "Who injured him?"

 C237

    "Big brother Huang is here." Jun Qingjing''s face was pale white. Looking at Jun Qingshang''s worried expression, she comforted him and said, "It''s nothing, I was just hit by the Dark Wizard. I won''t die."


    The Dark Witch''s palm was not a simple palm, it was very likely to kill Jun Qingshang with it. Jun Qingshang did not dare imagine it, and furrowed his brows even more: "Come with me to the capital, the capital is more safe than Jing Cheng."


    "That may not be so!" Huang Wanxue laughed coldly, "The gathering place of the Dark Mages is in the capital, wouldn''t you be sending him to his death if he were to go back?"


    "Xue''er!" Jun Qingjing frowned, but was interrupted by Jun Qingshang just as he was about to speak.


    "I''m afraid that right now, he won''t be able to do anything with his power!" Jun Qingjing''s beautiful eyes squinted, "I have Crimson Pearl Grass in my house, I can definitely cure it by concocting a medicinal pill with my Shaman Energy."


    Crimson Pearl Grass was a very rare herb, but Jun Qingjing actually said that he had it in his house. Huang Wanxue was surprised for a moment, but then he remembered that he was a prince, so it shouldn''t be difficult for him to obtain something like this. Huang Wanxue originally wanted to say something else, but after hearing his words, she shut her mouth.


    Jun Qingjing understood this much better than Huang Wanxue. Upon hearing the word Crimson Pearl Grass, his entire body tensed up, "That''s something that only exists in Saint Wu Mountain. How did you get it?"


    "It''s not important how you got here. The important thing is that you have to come back with me right now!" Jun Qingshang did not want to explain this matter. After all, the less people knew about the secrets of Yun Ruoleng, the better.


    Without waiting for Jun Qingjing to speak, Huang Wanxue opened his mouth and said, "I''ll have some people pack up immediately, we''re leaving today!"


    "Xue''er!" Jun Qingjing frowned slightly. "Since royal brother has arrived at Jingcheng so quickly, I believe he''s hurrying through the night. Let''s tidy up the rooms for them to rest first. It''s not too late to set off tomorrow at noon!"


    Huang Wanxue wanted to say something, but seeing Jun Qingjing''s expression, he could only give up. After Huang Wanxue finished making the arrangements, Jun Qingshang began to arrange for people to send the Scarlet Pearl Grass to the Sacred Palace.


    Yun Ruo Leng was in a good mood. She took a nap, sat in the yard with a book in one hand and a chess piece in the other. There was an unfinished chess game on the table. Yun Ruo Leng seemed to be studying it.


    "Miss, An Ying is back." Tao Hong stood beside Yun Ruoleng, and warned him in a small voice as she watched An Ying swiftly walk into the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly raised his eyes, with just a glance, his expression darkened: "Didn''t you go to look for the Duke? Why are you back? "


    "Subordinate has been ordered to come to the Crimson Pearl Grass." An Ying respectfully bowed to Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng placed the chess pieces on the Go board, his expression extremely solemn: "What happened?"


    An Ying told Yun Ruoleng about Jun Qingjing, and only then did Yun Ruoleng understand what Jun Qingshang meant. He said to Peach Blossom behind him, "Go and take out the last stalk of Crimson Pearl Grass and use it for ice spring water conservation."


    "Miss, that grass was left for your delivery. If you gave it ¡­"


    "It''s still early!" Yun Ruoleng casually waved his hand: "Let him use it first, just wait a few days to go to the Saint Wu Mountain to get it."


    Peach Blossom didn''t know whether to laugh or cry. Ordinary people like them couldn''t enter Sacred Martial Mountain, but their Miss was different. Entering Sacred Martial Mountain was like entering an ordinary mountain.


    An Ying rubbed his nose. The fact that his own wife was a pure witch was not a secret in An Ying''s arsenal. At least, the higher-ups knew about it. This Crimson Pearl Grass ¡­ Cough cough, he didn''t say anymore.


    Peach Red took out the last stalk of Crimson Pearl Grass and solemnly gave it to An Ying. Holding this medicine, An Ying''s heart was especially complicated.


    After An Ying took away the last Crimson Pearl Grass, Peach Red was depressed for the best part of an hour.


    "Your highness will be back today." Yun Ruoleng stood in front of the window and looked out at the sunset. Today was already the fifth day of the year, so no matter how slow he was, it would be here soon.


    Yun Ruoleng held onto his chest, his emotions in a complicated manner. An Yue saw that she was standing in front of the window wearing only a light shirt. He frowned slightly as he reached out to take down a relatively thick cape from the clothes rack and draped it over Yun Ruoleng''s body.


    Yun Ruoleng regained her senses, her phoenix eyes suddenly lit up: "The Prince is back?"


    An Yue frowned, and shook his head. The smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face instantly disappeared, his elegant brows knitted together: "Then where are they?"


    An Yue''s gaze slightly sank, a complicated look flashed past his eyes: "Your highness won''t be back today, please rest early! This grandpa will only arrive at noon on the next day. "


    The usually quiet An Yue spoke this much in one go today, and it was hard for him to do so. It was just that Yun Ruoleng simply did not notice his change, and with a dejected reply, he yawned and walked towards the bed.


    At this moment, Yun Ruoleng felt that her life was actually not as boring as Jun Qingshang''s, and that the paintings she had made these few days were all done in a manner similar to those times when gods were not present. That night, Yun Ruoleng had a strange dream. A ball of black Qi chased after him from beginning to end in his dream. No matter how much he resisted, it didn''t leave.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly woke up from his dream and saw a person sitting on the side of the bed.


    "You ¡­"


    "Long time no see. How has Miss Yun been?" This voice, Yun Ruoleng knew who it was the moment he heard it. It was the person who had wanted to negotiate with him before, but why did he come in?


    "It''s not important how I got in. What''s important is that Miss Yun is not curious about why more and more dark Magi want to kill you."


    Yun Ruoleng''s pupils constricted. To be able to break through the array and enter without being discovered, this person''s power was even stronger than Black Robe''s. If he was also the one who killed me, then his little life would have really ended today. Yun Ruoleng''s brain quickly weighed the pros and cons, and said with a smile: "You''re the manager of the Dark Mage, right? Just like the Virgin Mary, who governs the world''s witches. "


    "Hehehe ¡­" This person''s laugh was strange, but soon he stopped laughing and said coldly, "I promised I wouldn''t kill you, so you don''t need to worry."


    Yun Ruoleng immediately rolled his eyes, why did he come all the way here to attack Regent¡¯s Mansion and say that he was not here to kill him, and not to kill him? Could it be ¡­ Yun Ruoleng quivered all over: "What are you trying to do?"


    "I''m here to ask you, where is Black Robe?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s mouth slightly opened as she looked at him in astonishment. The pair of bottomless eyes stared coldly at Yun Ruoleng, the repressed atmosphere started to condense, and the air in the room became colder and colder.


    "That... "Last time, he left the capital after saving me." Yun Ruoleng rubbed his nose.

 C238

    In order to ensure that his words are feasible, he quickly said, "Really! He went missing without a trace, there''s no way I would know. "


    The man''s Qi slowly vanished, his gaze sweeping across Yun Ruoleng''s body before snorting coldly and disappearing.


    "Cancel..." "He''s gone ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s face changed again and again, not to mention how beautiful it was.


    The door was knocked at this moment, and Yun Ruoleng regained his senses: "Who?"


    "Miss, do you still want to go to the morning training when you wake up?" Yun Ruoleng immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and let her in to help her change.


    Peach Blossom came in as if she didn''t know anything. She helped Yun Ruoleng put on his clothes and sat in front of the dressing table with her. Just like before, she helped her tidy up while talking about the rumours about the size of the capital.


    Yun Ruoleng was a little doubtful, but after thinking about it, he knew that if that man could come here without anyone noticing, then he had his own ways to not disturb anyone and chat with him.


    After thinking it through, Yun Ruoleng started to worry about Black Robe again.


    From the looks of it, that person seemed to have a grudge with Black Robe, and after exposing his strength, Black Robe disappeared without a trace. It was unknown where he went and whether he would encounter any danger.


    It was noon when Jun Qingshang rushed into the Water Spirit Pavilion with Traceless Snowsteps. Only when he saw that Yun Ruoleng was safely sitting in the courtyard and eating his seeds, did he finally relax.


    The expression on his face changed bit by bit, and he revealed a perfect smile before opening his mouth and saying: "Nothing has happened inside the palace, even if you rush back in a hurry, you still won''t be afraid of tiring yourself."


    "You said such a big thing was fine!" Jun Qingshang stepped forward and pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, hugging him tightly, as if he had lost and recovered.


    Yun Ruoleng was a little taken aback as he raised his hand, not knowing what to do. Jun Qingshang unhappily whispered in her ear: "Ruo Er! You can do it, can''t you? We only found out after we returned to the capital. You sure are courageous. "


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng laughed awkwardly: "Isn''t, isn''t this afraid that you will be delayed because of my small matter?"


    "A small matter?" Jun Qingshang''s handsome face instantly darkened as his grip on Yun Ruoleng''s shoulder forced her to look at him: "Is this matter related to your life? Is this considered a small matter? Yun Ruoleng, is it only a big deal if you die?! "


    "No, it''s not like that." Yun Ruoleng laughed awkwardly: "Didn''t I already know that this formation is powerful, so it won''t hurt me? Furthermore, even if you were to return from the outside, you wouldn''t be able to save me. The Emperor and the Great Sima have both come to the palace and there won''t be any problems.


    "Stupid girl!" Jun Qingshang felt that it was both good and funny. This girl was becoming more and more adorable, but this matter was not over! Jun Qingshang saw that she was continuously explaining things to him, in other words, everything Yun Ruoleng said was right, but his heart was still uncomfortable. After all, his wife was in danger, yet he was unable to protect her.


    Yun Ruoleng reached out and wrapped his neck, and said while grinning: "Master, in another two days, it will be the emperor''s birthday. What are we preparing to order?"


    "Let''s talk about this later!" Jun Qingshang removed the phoenix image from Yun Ruoleng''s body. "The phoenix map is here, let''s go and see."


    "That''s right, Huang Tu had already entered the capital before. That day, he came to the palace after the battle and I didn''t see him. After that, he disappeared." After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something and tugged at Jun Qingshang''s wrist: "Did Uncle Pu tell you about the Glazed Pearl?"


    "I know, don''t worry!" This Regent¡¯s Mansion was probably equivalent to exchanging blood. His hand was somewhat long, and actually pressed down one of his own people into the Prince''s Mansion.


    Because too many things had happened, Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang could not explain it in a short amount of time. They could only go with him to see the Phoenix Diagram first.


    As the person most likely to become the future successor to Yue Ling, Phoenix Diagram was completely different from the previous idle king. He wore a cinnabar red cloak over his crimson red robe, and a grey fox fur collar.


    Yun Ruoleng stepped into the room and his gaze fell on Yun Che''s face.


    Jun Qingshang unhappily blocked Yun Ruoleng''s gaze with his body, and asked with a heavy face: "Why did you come all the way here for?"


    "Didn''t you also let people travel thousands of miles to reach the Yue Ling?" Huang Tu tilted his head, looking at Yun Ruoleng who was peeking his head out, he said, "Little Ruo Er is more beautiful than ever."


    "Eh ¡­"


    "Don''t use your provocative words to seduce my woman!" Yun Ruoleng was so stunned that he did not know how to reply. Then, he heard Jun Qingshang''s warning from inside the room. Although Yun Ruoleng was hiding behind him, he could feel a powerful aura pouncing towards him.


    The Phoenix Diagram was not afraid of Jun Qingshang at all, or to be more precise, Jun Qingshang''s coercion and the Phoenix Diagram were mutually offsetting each other, it was just that Yun Ruoleng did not feel the battle between the two of them at all.


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes narrowed her eyes and the enormous aura caused Yun Ruoleng to unconsciously take a small step back. She stuck her head out and laughed: "Aren''t you guys tired of standing here? Sit, sit! "


    "Thank you!" Feng Tu Xie smiled charmingly, waved his sleeves and sat down at a corner. Jun Qingshang snorted coldly, and without saying a word, he sat down on the seat of honor. He held the armrest of the chair with one hand and the other hand on the small pedestal as his middle finger rhythmically beat the small pedestal.


    The atmosphere was so quiet that it caused people to be afraid, Yun Ruoleng shrunk her head, in order to lower her sense of presence, she could not understand why the first time she saw the two of them, they were chatting happily, and in a few months, it seemed like they were enemies.


    "Is ¡­ is the journey with the Phoenix Diagram going smoothly?" Yun Ruoleng did not forget that there was a Huang Teng here before the Phoenix Diagram, and he even died when he returned.


    "Since I did not take that route, I am naturally safe!" Huang Tu gave Yun Ruoleng a flirtatious glance: "I heard you''re pregnant?"


    "That''s right!" Mentioning this, Yun Ruoleng was extremely excited. She unconsciously rubbed her slightly protruding stomach: "This child came at an inopportune time, but since he''s here, of course I have to treat him well."


    Very quickly, it was fast to the point that Yun Ruoleng did not notice it at all, but no matter how fast it was, it could not escape Jun Qingshang''s eyes.


    When Huang Tu''s gaze fell on Yun Ruoleng''s stomach, Jun Qingshang was really unable to hold back and spoke coldly: "Don''t tell me you''re here to visit our little emperor out of good intentions."


    "Sigh!" You always think too much, I''m afraid that''s not good! " Phoenix Fairy Beauty was not angry at all after being exposed by Jun Qingshang, she giggled and said: "I don''t have many goals, I''m just here to help you."


    Jun Qingshang sneered. Help him? It would be better to say it was to add fuel to the fire! It was only because the heavens were more chaotic that there was a greater chance for Yue Ling to develop, but it was a pity that they had still underestimated him.


    The three words "Jun Qingshang" were not simply casually called out.

 C239

    After Jun Qingshang drove the Phoenix Map out of the Duke Palaces, he pulled Yun Ruoleng towards the Water Spirit Pavilion.


    Yun Ruoleng only reacted after he was brought back to the Water Spirit Pavilion, the moment he opened his mouth to speak, he was stopped by a hot kiss.


    He swallowed all the words in his stomach.


    Outside the door, Peach Blossom and An Ying stood facing each other. Both of their gazes would glance at each other from time to time, and when their eyes met, they would let out a cold snort and turn away from each other. Then, they couldn''t help but glance at each other from time to time.


    An Xiang and Cui Ying stood in the courtyard, seeing the two people at the door, looked at each other, then laughed helplessly and turned to sit on the stone bench.


    "I feel that these two people are a perfect match. Their characters are really too similar." An Xiang peeled the melon seeds and said as if he was watching a play.


    The corner of Cui Ying''s mouth raised up unconsciously, "Everyone knows that the person in question is a mystery, the way I see it, these two people really don''t know what they are thinking at all."


    "Yeah." An Xiang seemed to have thought of something, and laughed: "Tonight I will go and poke a hole in An Ying, see if he still dares to bully me in the future."


    "What does this have to do with bullying you?" Cui Ying''s hands paused as he looked at An Xiang suspiciously.


    An Xiang rolled his eyes at Cui Ying: "Now that my worries have been exposed, you''ll at least feel guilty!"


    "¡­" This time, Cui Ying finally understood why his master said that An Xiang seemed to have become a completely different person. The Spiritual Light that Miss mentioned should be at this time! This girl''s head was in trouble.


    An Xiang didn''t know that she had long been despised by others, and was still sitting there daydreaming.


    In the room, Yun Ruoleng had been kissed until she fainted, even when her clothes were all taken off, she did not notice it at all. A burst of cold wind suddenly blew, and Yun Ruoleng finally regained a sense of consciousness, unfortunately, he had already been stripped clean by the big bad wolf.


    "Samsara ¡­" Yun Ruoleng said with a voice that was so flirtatious that even she herself could not help but blush.


    Jun Qingshang crawled onto her body, using his hands to support the pressure on his body so as to not hold her back. His breathing became unstable as he raised his eyebrows, "It''s fine, when I came back, I had already asked the imperial physician.


    Yun Ruoleng did not know how seductive she was at the moment, but Jun Qingshang could not resist anymore. He waved his hand and the mosquito net automatically fell down, adding incense to the red tent.


    Jun Qingshang was extremely energetic. After being tossed and turned around, she could still resist in the beginning, but since someone was holding onto her tightly, she had no other choice. In the end, she gave up on struggling and was like a little doll being manipulated by.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up again, it was already on the moon branch. She was woken up by the thirst and moved her body to find someone at her side.


    In order to not wake Jun Qingshang up, Yun Ruoleng used her power to suck the teapot on the table over, and heroically poured a lot of water into her mouth. When she finished drinking, she realized that the person beside her was already awake.


    "That ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was embarrassed. Thinking about her bold and unrestrained movements just now, her small face turned red and white.


    Jun Qingshang propped himself up, his gaze falling from Yun Ruoleng''s face to her hands, then from her hands to her face. Just when Yun Ruoleng thought that Yun Ruoleng would laugh at him, Jun Qingshang extended his hands to receive the teapot, and like Yun Ruoleng, raised his head to drink a mouthful of water.


    "Eh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was a little taken aback. After Jun Qingshang finished drinking, he pulled her into his arms and thought of something, "Oh yeah, is King Jing done with the Crimson Pearl Grass?"


    Jun Qingshang''s expression slightly darkened as he pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace. She did not speak in a hurry and instead looked at him with suspicion. Jun Qingshang sneered, "My beloved concubine, aren''t you afraid that this duke will throw you out while you''re lying on this duke''s bed thinking about other men?"


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, then laughed: "Is Your Highness jealous? Your jealousy is so strong that even I am going to ask for vinegar. Aren''t you afraid of hurting yourself? "


    Jun Qingshang sneered: "Who''s jealous? This King just does not want to hear other men''s names on his bed! "


    Yun Ruoleng raised her head and looked at him earnestly. This man just didn''t want to admit it, but it didn''t matter, she was happy to listen to it, and it only showed that he cared about her. Yun Ruoleng lied on Jun Qingshang''s chest that was slightly open, with a soft and boneless little finger drawing circles on Jun Qingshang''s chest, "If Your Highness does not want to say it, then this concubine will not say it."


    Could Yun Ruoleng quietly not ask about it? Jun Qingshang caught hold of Yun Ruoleng''s finger and the beautiful eyes narrowed its eyes dangerously. "Ruo Er, do you think you can light fires everywhere just because your body is unwell?"


    Yun Ruoleng looked at him innocently, then glared at him fiercely and said fiercely, "Sleep!"


    Although Jun Qingshang''s words were fierce, he was not afraid of Yun Ruoleng at all. His arms were wrapped around''s neck, and he laid in his arms while grinning. Maybe he was really tired and fell asleep very quickly. Jun Qingshang embraced his slender waist, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he closed his eyes in satisfaction.


    The next day, when Yun Ruoleng woke up, she had already left. The awake Yun Ruoleng was sitting on her bed in a daze as she hugged her blanket. Everything that happened last night seemed like a dream to her. Thinking about what he had done, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but laugh.


    Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng who was laughing and thinking at times, and then her bright red face, as she thought that she was sick, and immediately reached out her hand to touch''s forehead.


    Yun Ruoleng reacted from the displeasure and slapped the hand on his forehead away. He looked at her unhappily: "Your young miss is fine!"


    "Eh ¡­" Peach Red retracts her hand in embarrassment. Looking at her stiff face, she shrugs. To be able to scold others, it must be really good. As for why he was doing this, it was probably because of the return of the prince!


    Now that the Regent had returned, the entire mansion did not dare to relax. After all, the main culprit was here. Even the maids and wives did not dare to loiter around, and the guards patrolled with all their might.


    However, Yun Ruoleng, the mistress of the Duke Palace felt that it was strange. When Jun Qingshang was not around, these people would be very polite to her, but they would always gather and chat in groups of two or three. When Jun Qingshang returned, the servant girl had already learned to shut her mouth, and no one would be able to gather outside the courtyard.


    Yun Ruoleng stood at the Water Spirit Pavilion entrance and watched a group of patrolling guards pass by before calling out for the reason.


    The guard looked at Yun Ruoleng and replied hesitantly, "Your highness doesn''t, doesn''t like people talking nonsense in the mansion, everyone knows that the wangfei has a gentle personality and will not fuss about it with everyone, that''s why Your highness doesn''t ¡­ doesn''t want to be a subordinate of the mansion."


    Yun Ruoleng was angered by his words and laughed, it turns out that this group of people were just using their weak points to pinch others! Fortunately, she wasn''t really a soft persimmon.

 C240

    Yun Ruoleng sneered, after sending the guards away, he angrily ordered Peach Blossom to call Uncle Pu over.


    An Xiang and Cui Ying followed behind Yun Ruoleng, and didn''t even dare to breathe out, afraid that they would anger her. After all, everyone in the Duke Palace knew that no matter how much they angered someone, they shouldn''t provoke this person into a rage, otherwise, the consequences would be worse than offending the Duke!


    Of course, Yun Ruoleng would not admit that he was a soft persimmon, so he had to do something to prove himself.


    When Uncle Pu was invited to Water Spirit Pavilion, his face was still confused. He saw Yun Ruoleng sitting in the courtyard drinking tea angrily, the servants in the surroundings all lowered their heads, not daring to speak at all, trembling in fear.


    Without waiting for him to think of a countermeasure, he heard Yun Ruoleng say, "Uncle Pu has also been a housekeeper for many years, and this rule is actually just a rule. If you don''t restrain it properly, some people will even climb onto Master''s head!"


    Uncle Po''s heart skipped a beat. That serious?


    Yun Ruoleng played with the teacup in his hand, and said softly: "Do you not believe me? Not long ago, this wangfei was personally listening in on people gossiping behind their backs. What would happen if the prince found out about this? "


    "Princess Hua-Yang, please calm your anger!" Uncle Pu was not stupid, from Yun Ruoleng''s tone, he knew that Yun Ruoleng wanted to use this matter to establish his might. He did not know which servant had offended, but he was afraid that they would be in trouble.


    Yun Ruoleng''s hands paused for a moment, as if he was thinking. Uncle Pu saw that he had already said something which made her feel more at ease. "Plus, these people feel that the wangfei doesn''t like to manage this matter, so they dared to be so impudent. The wangfei can use this to establish a rule in the backyard."


    "You''re right!" Yun Ruoleng placed the teacup in his hand on the stone table with a "pa" sound. His phoenix eyes shined brightly as he pointed at the two maidservants in the courtyard, "This wangfei has never wronged anyone, and Uncle Pu was also there that day. These two maidservants were in the courtyard saying that this wangfei was wrong, and although it was only a few sentences, this wangfei heard it clearly, how do you want to punish them?"


    Only then did Uncle Po''s gaze move from Yun Ruoleng to the two shivering servants. These two maids were chosen to go to Shang Mo Pavilion a few days ago. They looked elegant, unlike the others who wanted to climb onto Master''s bed.


    Uncle Pu helplessly sighed and cupped his hands towards Yun Ruoleng: "According to the rules of the Palace, the ones who are talking about Master behind his back are twenty big sticks, and one level lower. These two maids are third class maidservants, no matter how much lower they are, they won''t get any better.


    Raccoon Yard! Yun Ruoleng held his head and looked at the two servant girls with a smile that was not a smile. That place was a place for labourers, and normally, maids who had done something wrong would be sent there.


    Yun Ruoleng did not say anything. Uncle Po was not sure of Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts, so he stood at one side and looked from the two servant girls to Yun Ruoleng, and then to Tao Hong and An Xiang who were playing jigsaw puzzle.


    Strangely, though, things were being handled over here. The three maids by the princess'' side were doing their own things, so it didn''t seem to have anything to do with them.


    "Princess, please spare us!" Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng and Uncle Pu to speak, the two maids were already so scared that their legs had gone limp, and they immediately slapped themselves on the face, "This servant knows her wrongs, I won''t dare to do it again.


    "Your servant is willing to do anything, as long as the wangfei doesn''t send me to Huyan Courtyard."


    "So noisy!" Yun Ruoleng''s cold and detached appearance caused Uncle Po to be shocked.


    Yun Ruoleng kicked away the woman who had crawled to his feet, and couldn''t help but frown. "I won''t punish all of you today, but this wangfei''s dignity is hard to come by!"


    "This ¡­" Uncle Po stood at the side watching the fallen woman and couldn''t help but frown. The previous wangfei wasn''t like this, how did she change so much in one night?


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t even give Uncle Pu a chance to speak and directly roared: "Drag these two lowly maidservants down and punish them twenty times. After fighting, send them directly to the Raccoon Yarn Courtyard!"


    "Yes sir!" The guard quickly ran up to the two crying girls and pulled them away, afraid that they would dirty Yun Ruoleng''s eyes. Although Uncle Pu wanted to help, looking at Yun Ruoleng''s current situation, the more he said, the more mistakes he would make.


    ''s actions quickly spread to Jun Qingshang''s ears, and after Jun Qingshang heard this, he was naturally very angry, but after a while he suddenly laughed, if he was not mistaken, those two maids were the two palace maids chosen by the empress dowager herself.


    In other words, on the day that they were going to fix the Duke''s Mansion, the Queen Mother was afraid that the Duke Mansion might not have enough manpower, so she specially arranged two maids for her, saying that they were there to serve her, simply because they wanted her to crawl out of bed. He had originally planned to send her back, but with Ruo Er''s disturbance, he settled things easily.


    In truth, Yun Ruoleng did not think too much, it was just that he was feeling uncomfortable, and would inevitably vent his anger on one or two, and these people would start with the people who had offended her! After all, she really liked settling scores in the future.


    From time to time, he would go to the brothel or run to the Regent¡¯s Mansion to ask for tea. Furthermore, every time he came to the Duke Palaces, he would have to find Jun Qingshang for a period of time when he was not around, and every time he left, it was during the time that Jun Qingshang returned. The two of them did not meet for a few days, so Yun Ruoleng was rather curious.


    This time, the Phoenix Diagram came again. Yun Ruoleng looked at its smiling face and felt his head ache. "Why are you here again?"


    "Since Jun Qingshang isn''t here, I''ll accompany you to chat." Huang Tu sat beside Yun Ruoleng as if he was brothers and unceremoniously drank the chicken soup in her hands.


    Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, and only opened his mouth after seeing that he had finished drinking: "That was made by turning into a pregnant woman, and there was even a scorching tonic added inside."


    "Huh?" Huang Tu looked bad, his expression warped as he looked at Yun Ruoleng: "Why didn''t you say so earlier?"


    Yun Ruoleng innocently shrugged his shoulders: "I originally wanted to say it, but you drank in such a hurry."


    "You ¡­" Huang Tu felt a warm current rise up from his nose, and subconsciously reached out his hand to rub it. The sticky feeling made him cry out in anger: "We''re doomed! It''s bleeding from my nose! "


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng calmly nodded his head, and brought a teapot over to a cup of green tea. Seeing this, Peach Red and Cui Ying both shook their heads, thinking that the prince was probably going to suffer.


    "What are you waiting for!" Help This King deal with it! " Huang Tu covered his nose and shouted at his guards.


    The guard was also innocent as he looked at Yun Ruoleng, who gave a cold snort and pushed the teacup in his hand towards Yun Ruoleng, "Drink it! Fire-lowering. "

 C241

    Huang Tu looked at Yun Ruoleng suspiciously. Was this person really that kind?


    Seeing that he did not move, Yun Ruoleng did not bother with him, but continued to pour tea, and slowly sipped.


    "Is this tea alright?" Huang Tu covered his nose and asked vaguely.


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at him, "What do you think is the problem? I still don''t believe that I will poison you to death! "


    "Eh ¡­" Phoenix Fairy Beauty carried a cup of tea. Thinking about it, even if Yun Ruoleng wanted to kill him, he wouldn''t kill him in the Duke Palaces, the most important thing right now was to suppress the fire, otherwise, he would really lose too much blood and die.


    After Phoenix Diagram drank the entire cup of tea, he felt that it was useless: "Is this thing really useful?"


    "It''s not an elixir, drinking it will help." Yun Ruoleng curled her lips, and looked at him with disdain.


    Huang Tu raised his head, feeling anxious and felt blood gushing out from his nose.


    Peach Red laughed out without giving Yun Ruoleng any face. Being fiercely glared at by Phoenix Diagram, Peach Red became more fearless after following Yun Ruoleng, and she was stared at by Phoenix Diagram, not restraining herself.


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but give her another glance.


    Peach Blossom felt embarrassed, so she forcefully stopped laughing. Her back trembled and she looked especially cute.


    Huang Tu''s face turned red, staring at Peach Blossom, he realised that it was useless, so he turned to look at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "Why do you need to mind a little servant girl, is she better now?"


    "Humph!" Phoenix Fairy Beauty took the wet towel that Cui Ying passed over to her, and after cleaning up the blood stains on her face and hands, she took a deep breath. After feeling much better, she started to mutter under her breath, "I say, you, a wangfei, are too stingy, aren''t you! Didn''t I just steal a bowl of soup from you? Was there really a need to kill me? So much blood. "I don''t care. From today onwards, I will just stay here until my blood is replenished!"


    Yun Ruoleng took a sip of tea, and frowned: "Firstly, this soup was prepared for me, because my body is weak and needs nourishment. Secondly, I did not give you the soup, you said that you stole it, and in the end, when you bled, I helped you deal with it, and even drank this Fire Dew that is hard to buy, do you have the nerve to stay here?"


    "I was wondering why you and Jun Qingshang are the same!" After hearing what Yun Ruoleng had said, Huang Tu''s face turned black, and he silently concluded with one sentence in his heart ¡ª "It''s not like we don''t belong to the same family."


    "He''s my husband." After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he stood up and casually straightened his clothes. He turned around and patted the still laughing Peach Blossom Red and said: "Have you finished making your soup?"


    "In the pot." Peach Blossom put away her smile and answered seriously.


    This sudden change of events made Peach Red somewhat unable to adapt. She subconsciously looked at the Phoenix Diagram that was curiously sitting on the stone bench.


    Huang Tu snorted coldly as he was unwilling to continue looking at her. After all, no one would feel comfortable to be mocked by a little girl for so long. Phoenix Fairy Beauty''s reaction did not surprise Yun Ruoleng at all. What was strange was Peach Blossom, after Peach Blossom took a look at it, she actually lowered her head, as if she was a child doing something wrong.


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, turned around and coldly said to Phoenix Diagram: "You should go!"


    "Sigh ¡­" Just as Huang Tu wanted to say something, he heard the sound of footsteps. Without waiting for him to speak, there was already a person standing at the door. Yun Ruoleng had his back facing him, so he naturally did not know that there was someone behind him. Looking at Feng Tu who looked like he wanted to speak but hesitated, he sneered. "If nothing''s wrong, you just love to come to me."


    "No, it''s not ¡­" Phoenix Fairy Beauty looked behind Yun Ruoleng and gave her some hints, but Yun Ruoleng didn''t even look at him, he just waved his hand and walked away.


    Gone, gone ¡­


    Huang Tu looked at Jun Qingshang''s gloomy face, then glanced at Yun Ruoleng who left confidently and unrestrainedly. These two couldn''t be colluding, right?


    Phoenix Fairy Beauty was truly wronged by Yun Ruoleng this time, she really did not know that Jun Qingshang had come. It was only when night fell that she realised it, but that was all for the future.


    The current Huang Tu wished he could pull Yun Ruoleng over and ruthlessly pinch her little face.


    "Jun... Jun Qingshang, why did you return so early today? "


    "Mm ¡­" Jun Qingshang replied with his nasal voice. The beautiful eyes squinted its eyes dangerously as cold air emitted from its body.


    Huang Tu laughed at him in embarrassment, then raised his leg and ran out. Could Jun Qingshang just let him run away like that? Of course not. His body swayed, and he was directly stopped.


    "Eh ¡­" If Feng Tu wanted to run away, he wouldn''t be able to, he could only stand there and look at Jun Qingshang.


    Seeing him being so sincere today, Jun Qingshang sneered: "Follow me!"


    Follow him? Phoenix Diagram''s heart shook. If he followed him, would he still be able to live? Reality had told him that he could live, but he was not very comfortable living.


    An Xiang and Cui Ying looked at each other, lowered their heads and waited quietly for them to leave. After Jun Qingshang and Feng Tu left, the two quickly chased after Yun Ruoleng. However, it was as if Yun Ruoleng had disappeared along with Peach Blossom.


    brought Huang Tu to the door of the Regent King, and then didn''t walk any further. Huang Tu stood a dozen or so steps behind him, and in his phoenix eyes flashed a trace of light that he did not understand.


    "Huh?" At first, he thought Jun Qingshang was going to beat him up, but now, he was looking at a scene... The Phoenix Diagram was really surprised!


    Jun Qingshang smiled charmingly: "Are you satisfied with the things that Ruo Er has prepared for you? I believe you won''t dare to find her casually from now on. "


    Hearing his tone, Phoenix Fairy Beauty''s face sunk, she angrily brought her follower and left the Regent¡¯s Mansion. Jun Qingshang, who was in a rare good mood, stood at the door and laughed, only after seeing him board the carriage did he leisurely walk towards Shang Mo Pavilion.


    "Mistress, recent activities of the Wind King have become more and more rampant. This subordinate has already obtained evidence that he was recruiting in Jincheng City, and as a result, I have lost a few of my brothers." An Ying handed over a stack of letter and an account book to Jun Qingshang.


    King Feng was truly too stupid to be saved. Jincheng was so far away, did he want to make an enemy out of it, or did he want to break into the capital from there? Jun Qingshang felt disdain towards his actions more, but he was actually very interested in his account book. Inside the book were the accounts of the jade and iron ores, no wonder he was so arrogant.


    "The jade and iron ore mine are on a huge scale. It seems that it''s time for us to take something from him." The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth lifted slightly as he closed the account book. He raised his eyes and asked: "Is there any other evidence?"


    "Yes!" An Ying took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it over to Jun Qingshang. Jun Qingshang suspiciously looked at him for a moment and opened it. Jun Qingshang''s initially smiling face instantly darkened, with a slap, he slapped the paper on the table, and stared coldly at An Ying.


    An Ying trembled. Had he done something wrong? Since Jun Qingshang did not say anything, he did not dare say much either.

 C242

    Jun Qingshang was not a little angry, rather, he was extremely angry. He looked at An Ying and coldly said, "This was the sheet of paper from half a month ago, why didn''t you hand it over to the Ministry of Justice?!"


    "Master, master, if so many citizens wanted to sue the royal family, they would be killed. Even if they succeeded, the result would be the same. This subordinate does not dare to call out the lives of so many people!" An Ying dropped to his knees, the fear in his eyes unconcealable. Jun Qingshang frowned and thought for a while before letting out a sigh of relief.


    "Get up first!" Jun Qingshang rubbed his forehead, "This matter is still unknown to the imperial court, we will discuss it with the emperor tomorrow."


    "Yes sir!" Hearing Jun Qingshang''s words, An Ying heaved a sigh of relief. These were the lives of two villages, if he could save one, that would be one of them! He didn''t want to keep a village full of orphans and widows. That would be too pathetic.


    Jun Qingshang didn''t think too much about it. After giving An Ying a new assignment, he flipped open the imperial reports beside him, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn''t read even a single word. He was extremely agitated in his heart, and only after drinking the tea on the table, did he feel a little more comfortable.


    Yun Ruoleng returned to his room and yawned. Recently, he had been sleeping more and more, but he did not feel sick from it. This made Yun Ruoleng very happy, but the drowsiness was getting worse.


    In order to not allow Yun Ruoleng to fall asleep again, Cui Ying hurriedly passed a stack of dried fruits to her. "Miss''s prolonged sleep will affect her body, so it''s best for you to eat something to wake up from your stupor!"


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng knew that this was not good, but he was unable to resist the oncoming tiredness. Fortunately, this fruit was somewhat useful for raising one''s spirit, so after eating it, Yun Ruoleng''s spirit was much better.


    "The idle king has been sent away?"


    "The prince gave it to me personally. Actually, it would be better to say that it was a gift or a drive out." Cui Ying said as he packed up some things.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed lightly. With Feng Tu''s personality, if not for him feeling humiliated by a hundred and twenty thousand, how could he possibly be driven away so easily? Furthermore, with Jun Qingshang''s powerful aura today, he probably would have suffered a great loss!


    The room quietened down. Yun Ruoleng leaned on a small table and read a book, her right hand pointing at something, her brows tightly knitted, making her delicate face look even more enticing. An Yue hurriedly walked in with a stack of things in hand. As soon as he entered the door, he saw her expression. A profound gaze faintly flashed, hiding all the emotions in his heart.


    "Princess, this is this month''s accounts, do you see?" An Yue was holding onto the accounts, but these accounts were all in the Duke Palaces.


    After Yun Ruoleng put down the book in his hand, he looked at the account book and frowned slightly.


    "These are only from the capital. There are still some who will be sent back later." An Yue placed the account book on the table. Seeing her exhausted expression, he could not help but frown: "If you want to rest, then so be it.


    "That won''t do!" Yun Ruoleng felt that he should change his trashy habit of trying to get things done. As long as he did not do anything, he would not feel uneasy. This is not good for children. However, habit had decided it, and he really couldn''t throw it away.


    An Yue only warned her once, but did not stop her. Yun Ruoleng checked his accounts extremely quickly, and his memory was very good as well.


    Yun Ruoleng was so tired that he climbed down and waved his hands at An Yue: "If there is an account book, it will be delivered in a day. If not, I won''t be able to take it."


    "Who can''t bear it?" An Yue had not even opened his mouth when he heard a cold voice from behind him. An Yue immediately turned and bowed. Jun Qingshang directly went past him and sat down beside Yun Ruoleng. She stretched out her long arm to grab Yun Ruoleng in her embrace, and said with pain and anger: "So what if I''m tired, I''ll rest more. Why do you have to work so hard? It''s also your own body that''s getting injured! "


    Yun Ruoleng pursed his lips and raised the corner of his lips. Although his eyes were a little tired, he could not hide the love in them: "Since you''re so busy, if I don''t help you do something, I will feel uneasy."


    "I''m a man!" Jun Qingshang was not happy after hearing these words. On the contrary, after hearing these words, he was very angry: "You''re pregnant, so this kind of torture is not to just torture you!"


    Yun Ruoleng pouted her lips and stared at him unhappily. Without waiting for her to speak, Jun Qingshang ordered An Yue, "Let the butler see this in the future! "Wait for the wangfei''s body to get nimble before you bring it over!"


    "Yes sir!" An Yue responded as he turned around and left with the account book. There were only the two of them left in the room, Yun Ruoleng''s body moved guiltily in his embrace.


    But he was still trapped in Jun Qingshang''s embrace: "Don''t move, let me hug you for a while!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body stiffened. It seemed very tiring to listen to his nasal voice. In order to not disturb him, she really maintained this posture, and after a long while, she felt her body becoming stiff.


    It was unknown if it was because Yun Ruoleng was really tired, but when she fell asleep, she really fell asleep. Jun Qingshang lowered his head and looked at the person who was sleeping soundly in his arms, his brows slightly raised. In order to make her sleep more comfortably, Jun Qingshang carefully placed her on the soft bed and covered her with a thin blanket.


    Outside the door, Peach Blossom pulled An Yue and said excitedly: "Did you hear about it just now? Just now, a scene of Feng Huang Teng flying had appeared in the east side of the courtyard, and it was but an instant, and many people had seen it."


    An Yue unhappily rolled his eyes at her. The scene of Feng Huang Teng flying was a huge affair, if he appeared in the Duke Palaces, it would be strange. However, the pure Peach Blossom did not realize that this was a huge scheme. Instead, she felt very happy.


    An Yue pulled her to the side, covered her chattering mouth and said: "This matter is fishy, don''t speak nonsense!"


    Something fishy? Peach Blink innocently blinked his eyes, what could there be about the scene of a Phoenix Huang Teng flying? Seeing An Yue''s serious expression, it was as if he was some important figure.


    An Yue was too lazy to bother with him, he had to investigate this matter clearly, if not someone else would use this matter as an excuse.


    When Jun Qingshang came out of the room after settling down Yun Ruoleng, the Water Spirit Pavilion was already in chaos. An Ying and Peach Blossom were arguing quietly about something, and the moment Jun Qingshang came out, the two of them quickly shut their mouths and respectfully greeted him.


    "What happened?" Jun Qingshang''s gaze swept the area once, and the An Yue that was just here a moment ago suddenly disappeared, causing him to be confused.


    "Just now, a golden light appeared at the eastern side of Water Spirit Pavilion, followed by a flash of golden light. Your subordinate has seen it too. " An Ying took a deep breath and slowly explained this matter.


    This matter was neither small nor small. In conclusion, it could be said that the human factor was greater than the natural factor.

 C243

    Jun Qingshang was very clear of this logic, it was just that in the eyes of the common people, it was different.


    This time, the imperial court would be in chaos.


    Jun Qingshang rubbed his temples and waved his hands at An Ying: "Let people check!"


    "An Yue has already gone to investigate, I believe there will be a conclusion very soon." An Ying lowered his head, his expression somewhat heavy. Because An Yue''s reaction was extremely strange, he could not help but be a little worried.


    Jun Qingshang nodded in satisfaction, then clasped his hands behind his back and left the Water Spirit Pavilion. Peach Blossom only barely understood what was going on. She tilted her head and thought for a while, but still couldn''t understand why these people were so nervous. Could Feng Huang Teng''s flying appearance not be good enough to appear in the Duke Palaces? This was a good thing!


    Paper could not contain fire, adding on to the fact that Jun Qingshang did not stop them from talking, this, this news was as if he had grown legs and was spread to every single household, even all of the palaces, so Jun Rushi was very clear about this.


    When he heard the news, his face turned dark, and in the next second, he realised that there was someone trying to make him be wary of the Regent, and that Jun Rushi was not an idiot.


    Jun Rushi was indeed intelligent, but the enemy was in the shadows and the time that thing appeared was also very strange.


    Jun Rushi supported himself as he sat in the imperial study. No matter how he thought about it, he could not understand why, when he heard someone say that Jun Qingfeng was here.


    Jun Rushi''s small face pulled the old Clan Elder, who was extremely dissatisfied with him in his heart. As the emperor, why would he be so happy to see someone coveting his position?


    Jun Qingfeng was not easy to deal with, and regardless of whether Jun Rushi agreed or not, he had already brought his own bodyguard in, followed by a man wearing robes. The man had a face of wrinkles, with a long beard that made people uncomfortable.


    "Your Majesty, a strange phenomenon has occurred within the Regent¡¯s Mansion. The Daoist Primordial Yuan Zhen of this official''s residence said that this is a great fortune."


    Jun Rushi "haha" in his heart, his face still did not have a single trace of emotion. "If there''s anything good to say, it''s a good thing.


    Won''t Your Majesty bring the Heaven''s Mandate True Maiden into the palace?" "The flying phoenix was an auspicious sign for the birth of a Heaven''s Mandate girl. Now that it has appeared in the palace, is the Emperor not in a hurry?


    Jun Rushi sneered, the expression on his face erratic. "So what if you''re in the Duke Palaces? The position was still occupied by the regent''s consort! What do I need to bring my imperial aunt to the palace for? Do you want us to become enemies with the royal uncle? "


    "This subject doesn''t dare ¡­"


    "I''ll see how you dare!" Jun Rushi didn''t hold back as he picked up the imperial reports beside his hand and threw it at him, "Don''t think that just because you invited this lousy Taoist that we believed you, you can do it, so what? This throne was given to us by the royal uncle. If he was interested in the position, how could he give it to us? So, it''s best if you don''t take such precautions. If I hear any more about provoking our relationship with the Regent, I won''t let you off lightly! "


    "You ¡­"


    "You what you?" Jun Rushi coldly snorted, "We are the kings of an empire, do you still dare to hit us?"


    Jun Qingfeng was furious beyond belief, but he was stopped by Jun Rushi''s last sentence. His entire body of anger could only be vented out from the bottom of his heart.


    After being scolded by the little Emperor, Jun Qingfeng left in a fit of anger. Coincidentally, he met Jun Qingshang at the entrance.


    The two of them looked at each other, and Jun Qingshang ignored him and walked in. Jun Qingfeng snorted angrily and walked out.


    "royal uncle, you''re here!" Just as Jun Rushi sat down and saw Jun Qingshang walk in with his head held high and his chest puffed out, the door behind him creaked as it closed, and he immediately frowned: "royal uncle has something to tell us?"


    "Why would I look for you when I have nothing else to do?" Jun Qingshang found a seat and sat down, his gaze fixed onto the memorial in the middle of the hall: "You''re losing your temper again?"


    "Eh ¡­" Being grabbed by someone, Jun Rushi awkwardly touched his nose: "Isn''t that because Jun Qingfeng wanted to sow discord? Furthermore, I brought a lousy Taoist, it would be lucky if the two of them didn''t get any punishment. "


    "I haven''t found the reason for that incident yet, so don''t worry." Jun Qingshang said with a straight face: "Your highness, you have to hide your emotions and emotions to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of you."


    "I understand." Jun Rushi curled her lips, she felt that she had been wronged, but she did not dare protest. Who asked her royal uncle to be so powerful?


    Jun Qingshang rolled her eyes at him, and did not say a word, but quietly looked at Jun Rushi. Jun Rushi was completely scared and could not help but say: "royal uncle would not come here to say these words to us, right?"


    Only then did Jun Qingshang retract his gaze. "What do you think about this matter with Feng Huang Teng flying?"


    "It''s all made up by that group of people, do you really believe it, royal uncle?" Jun Rushi was very rational at such a young age, but it was unrealistic if he was too rational.


    "The people from the An Ying Guards saw it too."


    Jun Qingshang''s few words caused his expression to freeze. "Is it really as that smelly Daoist said ¡­"


    "No!" Jun Qingshang''s gaze darkened slightly. "Ruo Er is this king''s weak point, they not only want to sow discord, they also want others to take action against Ruo Er, to threaten this king."


    "What a great double-headed eagle ¡­" After Jun Rushi heard the explanation, his face turned dark. Even if he did not create enmity with the royal uncle, the other countries would still stare at him covetously.


    Of course, it was impossible for such a stupid person like Jun Qingfeng to exist.


    Jun Qingshang looked at Jun Rushi''s expression and chuckled: "No matter what the person behind you thinks, you must stand on the same side as this king, or you will really fall into another person''s trap. As for your imperial aunt, you don''t have to worry about her. It''s already not bad that she doesn''t cause trouble for others.


    Jun Rushi nodded her head in agreement. Yun Ruoleng was not a little girl who would let others control her, she was a demon who wore a woman''s mask, who would dare to use her against others!


    "Did royal uncle find anything this time?" Jun Rushi understood that it was impossible for Jun Qingshang to find him for some small matter. In addition to Jun Qingshang''s temper, he wouldn''t care about such a small matter.


    Jun Qingshang was very surprised, but in just an instant, Jun Rushi had not realised it as his gaze flashed by, "I sent people to find Jun Qingfeng''s evidence. As for that fence-sitter Jun Qingling, I think we can settle it once and for all."


    "What evidence!" Jun Rushi was extremely excited in his heart, the beautiful eyes was shining brightly, watching as he fished out a crumpled piece of paper from Jun Qingshang''s chest and passed it to him, he was completely stunned: "What is this?"

 C244

    "The emperor knows when he sees it." Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, looking at the change in Jun Rushi''s expression, it was a completely different story.


    Jun Rushi half believed and half doubted the contents of the paper. After reading it, his face darkened: "How can he do that!"


    Jun Qingshang shrugged his shoulders, his tone nonchalant: "This is not the first time, I have already sent people to investigate the rest, this point is enough for him to stay in the capital for a few months."


    "Why should we keep him?" Jun Rushi was completely confused. After chasing him away a few months ago, why did he want to keep him here?


    "He will always be careful in the capital, but once he goes to a place as remote as Jincheng, will he still be afraid?" Jun Qingshang laughed sinisterly.


    His laugh frightened Jun Rushi quite a bit. He already knew that royal uncle would take a few steps just by walking around. Jun Rushi silently sighed in his heart. This Three royal uncle was not even a match for the Seven royal uncle s, and he was still coveting his position;


    Outside the door, Little De was blocking Prince Ling who was walking around the doorway. Jun Qingling seemed to want to see what the two were talking about, when he suddenly heard a loud roar, and the sound of porcelain shattering. Soon after, the door was pulled open from the inside, and Jun Qingshang, dressed in a dark purple robe, walked out.


    Jun Qingshang walked out of the door and paused for a moment, then looked at him once, coldly snorted and left.


    He did not dare to look straight into Jun Qingshang''s eyes, so he lowered his head. After Jun Qingshang had left, Jun Qingling curled his lips in disdain and waved his hand at Little De. "I still have some matters to attend to. I''ll come back later."


    "Yes sir!" The little De Zi smiled as he saw Jun Qingling off before turning back to his study.


    Yun Ruoleng''s mood seemed to be very good. When Jun Qingshang returned, he saw Yun Ruoleng standing in the courtyard, exercising late at night.


    "You''re back?" Yun Ruoleng curiously looked at Jun Qingshang who had suddenly appeared in front of him.


    Jun Qingshang nodded, it was the first time that she looked so silly, but she looked really cute. Jun Qingshang could not help but smile.


    To laugh at a monster like Jun Qingshang, he must be talking about a monster like Jun Qingshang! In short, Yun Ruoleng was stunned, her eyes staring straight at the face.


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, and rubbed the top of her head with his big palm: It''s so dangerous, aren''t you afraid of hurting yourself?


    Yun Ruoleng held her head that was hurting from being hit, and stared at him with her phoenix eyes: "This kind of exercise will help a pregnant woman''s health!"


    "Who said that?" Jun Qingshang''s face instantly turned cold, such a dangerous action, who said anything wrong?


    Jun Qingshang panicked, and he did not dare continue to talk about this matter. He quickly changed the topic, and laughed: "This is not important, the most important thing is that the imperial doctor who checked my pulse today said that I might very likely be carrying a pair."


    "A pair ¡­" Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng strangely. He didn''t seem to be happy at all with the two children.


    Yun Ruoleng was a little doubtful seeing his reaction, and carefully pulled at the corner of his robes: "Why are you unhappy?"


    "There''s a legend in Heaven''s Enlightenment. The dragons and the phoenixes are born, the world is at peace. The twins are born, and the world is in chaos ¡­"


    "What and what!" Yun Ruoleng angrily pushed him away and retreated two steps. "Your royal family has so many troubles giving birth to a child! I don''t care what they are, as long as I like them! "


    "Ruo Er..." Jun Qingshang reached out a hand to try and pull her, but she flipped her hand and opened it. Jun Qingshang sighed helplessly: "I''m just afraid that my children will be exposed to rumors and slander, I don''t have any intentions of hating them."


    Yun Ruoleng was also not an unreasonable person, but after hearing what Jun Qingshang said, his expression eased up a little. "Don''t tell me that you have to hide your baby! Wouldn''t it be the same if someone found out? And the blow was even greater! "


    "No ¡­" "That''s not what I meant." Jun Qingshang felt that the problem that Yun Ruoleng was considering was really too far, but luckily he knew that Yun Ruoleng was still angry at the moment, hence he was more excited.


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes: "If that''s not what you mean, what do you mean? Your Highness, please enlighten me! "


    The tone of the word ''prince'' was even more serious. It seemed like she was truly quite angry. Jun Qingshang sighed in his heart, he then handed his hand to Yun Ruoleng: "Let''s talk inside."


    Yun Ruoleng looked around, and although he did not see anyone, he knew clearly in his heart that the wall had ears, and reason told her that she had to go inside to talk, Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts and actions were the same, but it was just that ¡­ Yun Ruoleng didn''t even pay attention to the hand that Jun Qingshang had given him and directly turned around and left.


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, this girl was still so rational when she was angry, which surprised him a bit. Jun Qingshang followed behind Yun Ruoleng, and the two of them walked into the room.


    Once he entered the room, he heard Yun Ruoleng muttering, "No matter what you say, it''s impossible to take this pair of children away!"


    Jun Qingshang laughed bitterly, why did this girl not finish listening to him?


    Yun Ruoleng''s mood was extremely bad, as he sat on the soft couch and fumed.


    After Jun Qingshang closed the door, he helplessly sat down beside Yun Ruoleng, and hugged Yun Ruoleng with his distinct fingers. "My beloved concubine, this duke only told you to prepare your heart. Why do you need to care so much?"


    Yun Ruoleng originally wanted to struggle, but when he thought about Jun Qingshang''s methods, how could he struggle free? She didn''t even bother to struggle as she lay in his arms and let out a "chi chi" sound.


    Jun Qingshang lowered his head, lightly kissed her forehead: "Ruo Er, why are you making things difficult for yourself. You just need to give birth to the child, and I''ll be responsible for those stubborn old fools."


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng raise his head to look at Jun Qingshang, only to see him looking at her with an ambiguous look. Yun Ruoleng lightly snorted with arrogance: "This is what you said! If you dare to turn your back on us, I''ll bring them along and leave so that you won''t be able to find us! "


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes sank slightly and furrowed his brows. "This king will not give you the chance to do so."


    "Humph!" Better not. " Yun Ruoleng''s arrogant and cute appearance was indeed cute, and seeing that her mood had improved a lot, Jun Qingshang gave her a kiss on her lips.


    The two of them had attracted the attention of a lot of people. Peach Blossom and Cui Ying, the two female servants, squeezed in front of the door to listen for any sounds coming from inside, but the weird thing was, there was no sound at all.


    The two of them looked at each other, and Cui Ying retracted her head. She shrugged and waved at Peach Blossom, and the two of them walked to the side to start discussing.

 C245

    Peach Blossom and Cui Ying sat in front of a stone table in the courtyard.


    Especially Cui Ying, she could not finish three sentences before she looked around at her surroundings. Peach Red felt that she was a bit too nervous, but Cui Ying''s nervousness was not without benefits.


    "You can''t let too many people know about the Miss''s matter. Perhaps the prince told you about it, and tomorrow the whole world will know." Cui Ying''s words immediately reminded Tao Hong, the two of them were also strange people, after discussing the countermeasures, they went to find the butler to give them the order to keep their mouths shut.


    When Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang walked out together, the sky was already dark. Cui Ying and Peach Blossom had been standing guard at the entrance the entire time. Although they were far away, the two of them could clearly see that the door was pulled open by someone, and two figures walked out.


    Peach Blossom''s reaction was extremely fast as she watched the two of them get up and run. Cui Ying looked at the Peach Blossom who was running so fast and was a little confused, and was not the only one. Even Yun Ruoleng was curious, he muttered under his breath: "This guy ran away just looking at us, how terrifying are we exactly?"


    Jun Qingshang chuckled, and rubbed his furry head: "I think it''s something urgent!"


    Yun Ruoleng snorted, and slapped the hand off his head: "What a coincidence then!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang shrugged his shoulders helplessly.


    At this moment, Peach Blossom ran back and smiled at the two of them. "My prince, where is little miss having her meal today?"


    "Of course it''s here!" Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes impolitely, did he still need to ask such an obvious question?


    Tao Hong looked at Jun Qingshang, who nodded, and Tao Hong left. Yun Ruoleng turned his head and stared at Jun Qingshang. Jun Qingshang was confused and frowned: "What''s wrong?"


    "No problem!" Yun Ruoleng retracted her gaze, this man was extremely hateful, even her servants had to listen to him. Yun Ruoleng was not convinced in his heart, but he was unable to ignore the aura around Jun Qingshang. It was that type of aura that could not be ignored, it was truly very irritating.


    Yun Ruoleng only muttered a few sentences in his heart. It would be impossible for her to say it out loud.


    Seeing her expression, Jun Qingshang shook his head helplessly, and held her hand as he walked towards the stone table. Walking to the stone table, Jun Qingshang placed her on a chair: "The birthday of the Queen of the Queen in the future, will be hard on you, Ruo Er."


    Yun Ruoleng was stunned for a moment. She seemed to have forgotten about this matter just now; she was originally thinking about how she would discuss the little emperor''s birthday with him once he returned, but she didn''t think that she would forget about it after making a ruckus with him.


    Yun Ruoleng was also a proud and delicate person. Just a moment ago, she was still angry, but it was impossible for her to recover so quickly. Even if she was not angry in her heart, she did not want to show it.


    After hearing what Jun Qingshang had to say, Yun Ruoleng''s reaction was extremely calm. "It''s no trouble at all, who asked me to be your wangfei?"


    The more Jun Qingshang heard about it, the more he felt that this girl was still sulking, and he quickly comforted her, "Then what kind of gift did Ruo Er prepare for the emperor? This King is very curious. "


    Mentioning the gift, a hint of awkwardness flashed across Yun Ruoleng''s delicate face. Because she had forgotten about it, she wasn''t prepared yet.


    Jun Qingshang seemed to have already known that this would happen, as he took out a dagger from his body and handed it over to Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng looked at the dagger in confusion then looked at Jun Qingshang: "What?"


    "This dagger is made of darksteel, it can cut through metal like mud. He will definitely like it if it is gifted to Xuan''er." Jun Qingshang gently pulled the hair that was blown around by the night wind behind her ears, his eyes so gentle that droplets of water could be seen.


    Yun Ruoleng held onto the dagger with her soft hands and looked at the colored gems embedded on the dagger. She then looked at him with her bright eyes, "Your Highness, you might as well give me such a beautiful dagger. After all, this dagger is more suitable for females."


    Jun Qingshang smiled but did not say anything, seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not want to let go, he placed his hand on top of her hair and gently rubbed it: "Although this kind of sharp weapon can protect one''s body, it is not safe either."


    Although Yun Ruoleng loved and refused to let go, he had to give up on this idea. It was not that she did not dare to bring it with her, but Jun Qingshang would definitely send more people to her side.


    After Yun Ruoleng made his decision, once he was in a better mood, he began to play with the dagger. There were still two days left. After Yun Ruoleng made this idea, his mood became even better.


    "Hungry!" "Put the things away first, Peach Blossom is coming." Jun Qingshang reached out and held her small hand, her face full of smiles. Yun Ruoleng was in a rare good mood, so he didn''t wear the dagger anymore.


    "It''s really cold outside. Let''s go inside!" Yun Ruoleng smiled as he pulled Jun Qingshang inside, and as Jun Qingshang let her hold on to him, he didn''t feel anything in the slightest.


    An Ying felt that his master had fallen, to think that he would actually be dragged along by the nose by his wife.


    There were a few dishes on the table and a jug of wine. As he continued to pour wine, Jun Qingjing could not help but frown as he continued to pour the wine, "King Leisurely, you''re not staying at the relay station to drink at this time of the day, are you?"


    "You and him are really brothers!" Phoenix Diagram released the finger that was holding the wine cup: "Didn''t I just drink a few pots of good Nu Er Hong? As a dignified prince, are you afraid that This King will make you poor? "


    Jun Qingjing''s jaw was tight. It wasn''t that he was reluctant to part with the wine, but why had this man suddenly come looking for him? Was it really drinking?


    Jun Qingjing wasn''t an idiot, he wouldn''t believe that his Phoenix Diagram could survive in the Yue Ling if it wasn''t for the fact that he had the ability to.


    "If you let me go like a thief, do you have to? Furthermore, you are my brother-in-law, why can''t I come to your place? " However, Jun Qingjing had already taken the bottle of wine away from him.


    Since Jun Qingjing was different from Jun Qingshang, he would naturally not fight against Feng Tu as he was a scholar and he also disdained fighting against him. Therefore, after Jun Qingjing snatched the wine pot over, she stood up and walked outside, while saying to the servants beside her: "Your highness has had too much to drink, you should help him go back and rest first!"


    The servant did not dare to call his master away! Looking at his gloomy face, it was too late for the manservant to hide!


    "Let''s go!" The unexpected thing was that Huang Tu was not truly angry, but he had an ugly expression on his face as he stood up and walked out of the Jing King Manor.


    The servant that followed behind her did not even dare to exhale. After exiting the Duke Palaces, Huang Tu suddenly turned around and glared at the servant unhappily: "I say, Yu Yang, when will you be able to learn to be so smart? When he told us to leave, you really did leave! "

 C246

    Yu Yang felt wronged!


    Just now, he was in a dilemma and didn''t intend to leave. The one who told him to leave was him, why did he end up blaming himself?


    Seeing his blank and silly appearance, Phoenix Diagram''s belly full of anger turned into a sigh. Why did he bring such a moron out? Phoenix Diagram no longer cared about Yu Yang and directly walked towards the relay station.


    Within the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Yun Ruoleng laid in Jun Qingshang''s embrace. The room was initially unusually quiet, but after a while, a clear and bright voice came out.


    Peach Blossom and An Xiang''s expressions were different as they stood at the entrance. Peach Blossom was still alright, after all, when Yun Ruoleng was in the Yun Palace, he would make two hums whenever he was in there.


    Although it was not An Xiang''s first time hearing her singing, she did not understand every time she sang. Today''s song was perfect, and she could clearly understand the lyrics of the song, which was why An Xiang was so shocked.


    It was fine if An Xiang was shocked, but even Jun Qingshang was shocked. What music hadn''t the Regent heard? But facing Yun Ruoleng''s voice, he really did not have the strength to resist. As he hugged Yun Ruoleng tightly in his embrace, he also rejoiced for a moment. Such a treasure did not fall into someone else''s home.


    Yun Ruoleng''s voice was simply too pleasing to listen to. His entire heart went soft from her gentle voice. Jun Qingshang rubbed his head as he asked, "What song is this? Why have I never heard of it? "


    Yun Ruoleng''s pink lips slightly rose: "This song is called ''Prison Division'', as for why you haven''t heard of it before!"


    The smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face became even more obvious. Without waiting for Jun Qingshang to continue asking, he had already laughed so hard that he did not even dare straighten his back. Jun Qingshang frowned. Why did it feel like he was being bullied?


    Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s blushing smile, he was even more certain of his thoughts.


    Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows, then poked her forehead with a finger that was clearly knotted. "If you have laughed enough, then tell This King honestly!"


    A look of ridicule flashed past Jun Qingshang''s eyes, but Yun Ruoleng did not notice it, he earnestly looked at him a few times before slowly opening his mouth: "Do you believe that a person can come back from the dead?"


    Resurrection from the dead? Jun Qingshang''s expression became serious: "I don''t believe it!"


    "Look at how scared you are. I''m just asking you, is there a need to put on a face?" Yun Ruoleng''s soft little hand held onto Jun Qingshang''s handsome face, and there was a pair of pitch black gems embedded on her delicate little face. "Isn''t this the emperor''s birthday? After thinking about it and making up this tune, I intentionally let the people of the Si Ma Le''s Workshop play it at the birthday banquet tomorrow. "


    "So that''s how it is." Jun Qingshang could not help but frown: "Then why are you laughing? And why do you ask? "


    How sensitive was Jun Qingshang? After hearing what Yun Ruoleng had said, he felt even more suspicious.


    Yun Ruoleng curled her lips: "Just now, your expression really looked like an ignorant kid! "As for why I asked you this question ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang for a long time before chuckling softly, "Let this be treated as a secret. Will it be okay if I tell you about it in the future?"


    Jun Qingshang''s mood was at a loss for a moment. It seemed like she still held some reservations for him, and it was only because of this that she would be interesting, otherwise the future would be very boring.


    Seeing that he really didn''t ask anymore, Yun Ruoleng was a little worried instead.


    Didn''t they always say that when there was a secret between husband and wife, there would be estrangement? She was truly worried that something like this would happen.


    Because of what happened that day, Yun Ruoleng started to become nervous.


    In the blink of an eye, the young emperor was born. The birthday banquet that the empress dowager had prepared for her darling grandson was very grand. As the ruler of a country, it didn''t feel out of place to have such a grand page. The banquet was grand, but no one knew that it was the beginning of a conspiracy.


    Inside the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Yun Ruoleng had risen early in the morning to count all the gifts he had prepared. As he sat by the side, he took a deep breath in, "Girl, you''ve prepared so much ¡­"


    "Not much!" With one hand on his waist and the other touching his chin, Yun Ruoleng spoke as though he was thinking of something: "These are all priceless but unique portions, they are all novel and inexpensive, I wonder if he will like them?"


    Jun Qingshang really wanted to press her down on the bed so that she could rest a while more. A year or two for the little Emperor to use, but he was already ten years old, and these things ¡­ It was unknown what this girl was thinking.


    Yun Ruoleng did not notice the change in Jun Qingshang''s expression. At this moment, he was still worrying about the present he had prepared for her. Jun Qingshang could not bear to watch any longer, she got up and dragged Yun Ruoleng out. As she walked, she spoke to An Xiang who was behind her: "Pack up your things, we will send them to the palace later."


    "Yes." Peach Blossom and An Xiang looked at each other helplessly at the box full of toys. However, the emperor would probably like Miss''s kind intentions.


    Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng along as he walked out. Yun Ruoleng expressed his doubts, but just as he wanted to speak, he saw the Phoenix Diagram walking towards him. Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned, a trace of astonishment flashing through his black eyes.


    However, Jun Qingshang was not as polite as him. Sneering, he went around him and prepared to leave.


    "Sigh!" I say, as a regent, do you need to be so petty? " Seeing that he was about to leave, Huang Tu quickly moved to block his path: "I brought you a message."


    Jun Qingshang''s jaw was tight but he had finally calmed down. "The best news you can tell me is interesting to this king!"


    "Of course I''ll be of interest to you, but ¡­" Phoenix''s eyes widened slightly: "Are you really going to let me speak at the door?"


    The next moment, Jun Qingshang''s face was filled with haze. When Huang Tu saw this, he immediately waved his hand: "Say it like you''re standing ¡­ "Hehe."


    "Speak!" Jun Qingshang did not give him a nice face, and he was not angry, but Yun Ruoleng who was at the side was extremely curious, sometimes the two of them were like enemies, and sometimes it was okay, but she could not understand.


    had hurt him so he would remember this matter and go find Yun Ruoleng to settle it. Yun Ruoleng didn''t even know that he had once again been targeted by the big bad wolf.


    "When I left the inn, I wanted to go to the Ten Thousand Flowers House to take a look, but I didn''t expect to meet Jun Qingling. He seems to be very close with the Vice Commander of the Imperial guards, and judging by their relationship, I thought he had a pretty boy face! However, things didn''t turn out like this. The two of them entered a shop next to the Ten Thousand Flowers House. After a while, the two of them came out smiling. Then ¡­ "


    "Can you talk about the main point?" Yun Ruoleng almost couldn''t bear to listen any longer. He had already spoken for such a long time about Jun Qingling''s relationship with the Vice Commander of the imperial guards. He had to get to the bottom of this, no matter what he did!

 C247

    "Ahem, the next sentence is the main point, don''t interrupt me." Huang Tu coughed lightly and glared at Yun Ruoleng unhappily.


    Yun Ruoleng immediately rolled his eyes and gave him a "go ahead" look.


    Jun Qingling pulled Yun Ruoleng and was about to leave, because he did not want to see the two of them exchanging glances.


    "Ai ¡­" "Why did you two leave?" Huang Tu hurried to catch up. "Let me tell you this, this commander of the imperial guards is sick today. Don''t you think it''s strange that he can''t attend the Emperor''s birthday banquet?"


    Jun Qingshang stopped in his tracks, a trace of displeasure flashed through the beautiful eyes, but he did not chase the person out. Instead, he only replied coldly: "So what?" "So what?" Huang Tu was in a bad mood. With such a huge piece of news in front of him, how could he be so arrogant as to hold the hand of his little delicate wife and leave ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng turned around and gave him a comforting smile. The two of them walked towards the entrance of the Duke Palace hand in hand. Seeing the two of them walking further and further away, Huang Tu could not help but frown. Looking at Jun Qingshang''s posture, he should have already been prepared, then what was he worrying about?


    At first, Yun Ruoleng thought that he was prepared, but when he got on the carriage, he sat inside to look around. He looked nervous, but Yun Ruoleng peeked his head out to take a closer look and was immediately speechless.


    "Your Highness, what are you unprepared for?" Yun Ruoleng reached out his hand and grabbed the register in Jun Qingshang''s hands. When his gaze landed on Jun Qingfeng, he seemed to have understood something and the corner of his mouth slightly raised: "So this vice commander is related to Duke Feng! "No wonder it''s so close."


    "In a while, you will enter the Palace from the south gate. I will go to the Hall of Peace to discuss some matters with Xuan''er. In a while, I will come pick you up." Jun Qingshang patted Yun Ruoleng''s head and smiled.


    Jun Qingshang''s confident look made Yun Ruoleng feel more at ease, and he nodded to express his understanding.


    After the carriage stopped at the east gate, Jun Qingshang really got off the carriage. He sat inside the carriage alone, feeling tired, so he leaned against the carriage wall and snored for a while, and waited until the carriage slowly entered the south gate. Only then did Yun Ruoleng wake up and with An Xiang''s help, he walked in the direction of Wang Ci Ning Palace.


    As he was pregnant, Yun Ruoleng''s entire person was very tired. When he arrived outside a pavilion, Yun Ruoleng really couldn''t walk anymore. When she was about to leave, she suddenly saw a familiar figure rushing towards her.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang in surprise. Didn''t this person go to the Temple of Peace? Why did he suddenly appear here? Jun Qingshang would never turn around if there was nothing wrong with his character. Just as Yun Ruoleng wanted to ask what was going on, he was dragged outside.


    Speaking of which, this was the Palace of Mercy! If she ran away, wouldn''t the empress dowager find trouble with her? Yun Ruoleng wanted to struggle free from Jun Qingshang''s hands, but was interrupted by him in a cold voice. "It''s not safe in Peace Palace, stay by my side."


    "No, it''s not safe. Why did you bring me alone?" Tzu Ning Palace was a place all the imperial concubines and imperial concubines had to go to. Furthermore, this person''s mother was there as well! Were they preparing to abandon them? Yun Ruoleng expressed that he could not take it.


    "Their target is you, not the Queen Mother and the others, so taking you away would reduce their danger."


    "They?" Yun Ruoleng reacted and his face became extremely pale, "Did Jun Qingfeng get into a fluster again or was he preparing to make a move? There''s a lot of people here today, so it''s quite convenient for us to start fighting. "


    "Do you still remember what the Phoenix Diagram said this morning?" Jun Qingshang slowed down his footsteps, the expression on his face became much more serious: "Actually I had thought that they would take action, but I didn''t expect it to be so fast, but it''s also good like this, as one of them is able to cut the grass at its roots, so it won''t implicate too many people."


    "Your Highness is such a despicable person." Yun Ruoleng could tell from Jun Qingshang''s words that this black-skinned man was actually already prepared, waiting for a big fish to bite him.


    However, this big fish was unwilling to take the bait, probably because its opponent was Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Ruoleng was envious of Jun Qingshang for that moment. Sometimes being strong was also a good thing, at least other people would consider your strength when doing things that are related to your interests.


    "Where did the word ''vile'' come from?" Jun Qingshang stood still and raised his eyebrows at Yun Ruoleng. With his sharp eyebrows and the pair of beautiful eyes s, Yun Ruoleng was in a trance for a moment.


    "Prince, if you weren''t a villain, how could you have let the clown live until now?" It should have been settled when he first sent someone to assassinate him!


    Jun Qingshang rubbed his nose. Everyone said it was not good to be clever, let''s see! This clever girl had instantly exposed his plan without the slightest bit of mysteriousness.


    Yun Ruoleng stared at Jun Qingshang with sparkling eyes, seeing the awkwardness after his thoughts had been exposed. She suddenly felt that sometimes, her prince was also so cute.


    Jun Qingshang''s palm directly landed on Yun Ruoleng''s head: "Enough, let''s go!"


    "Where to?" Yun Ruoleng curiously stared at Jun Qingshang''s handsome face, why was it that the more he looked, the more he was unable to look away?


    Jun Qingshang had hated his face so much in the past that he would attract attention no matter where he went. However, he was different now.


    Jun Qingshang kept his proud feelings in his heart, but it was hard for him to hide his smile: "Does Ruo Er know where in the palace is the safest place?"


    "The most dangerous place is the safest place. I think we should go to the Temple of Peace and chat with the emperor." Yun Ruoleng chuckled. This person was truly scheming, even his own nephew was involved, what a pitiful Xuan''er! With this kind of royal uncle, you should just pray for yourself!


    Jun Qingshang held hands and brought Yun Ruoleng into the Luan He Palace, then directly sat down beside Jun Rushi. Because today was his birthday, the emperor had woken up early to sit at this place, he was just worrying about whether he was bored or not. He wanted to sneak out to play, but then he saw Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng.


    Jun Rushi had not seen Yun Ruoleng for over a month, but this time, he felt that his imperial aunt had grown a bit fatter, and her stomach was even more obvious than before.


    Jun Rushi was a very considerate child. Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to speak, he ordered the little De Zi beside him to soften Yun Ruoleng''s chair a little. Seeing his considerate actions, Yun Ruoleng felt a little guilty, but thinking about it made him feel safe.


    For the sake of her children and Jun Qingshang, she could only stay with him. After all, something was not as safe as their safety.


    When he thought about it, Yun Ruoleng''s guilt immediately disappeared.

 C248

    The music spiraled, singing and dancing rose to a crescendo. Suddenly, a female dancer rushed out.


    Her Majesty was frightened, and the sudden change turned the little Emperor''s face ashen. An Xiang quickly blocked in front of Yun Ruoleng, the woman''s attacks were endless, and An Xiang was no longer a pushover. When the long ribbon passed in front of him, his body slightly leaned to the side, and used both of his hands to grab onto the long ribbon, forcefully pulling the woman towards him.


    Jun Qingshang was not idle in the fighting, he stood up and stood in the hall? He looked around coldly, "Since you''re here, come out!"


    The empress dowager didn''t even have time to react at first, and was still wondering in her heart what Jun Qingshang was doing? Without waiting for him to speak, he saw a group of imperial guards rush in. The empress dowager''s expression immediately changed. "What''s going on?"


    Jun Rushi held onto the empress dowager''s hand and firmly nodded. "Royal Grandmother and Imperial Aunt will stay here and not move.


    "Jun Qingfeng! "How dare you!" The empress dowager wasn''t an idiot. Jun Qingfeng had already glared covetously at the throne, and she knew about this from the imperial harem.


    Jun Qingfeng was no longer pretending when someone called him, and slowly stood up from his seat. He swept across everyone present with a dark gaze, "This king will ask you one time, and if anyone is willing to submit to this king, then this king will naturally treat them kindly. If not, don''t blame this king for being heartless! The entire imperial guards are all under my control. Choose whatever you want to do yourself! "


    They were all officials of the fourth rank and above. It would be too much for him to make these people submit to him. Plus, he already had a group of loyal people by his side. Jun Qingfeng thought that his threat would be of some use, but he didn''t think that Jun Qingshang would just stand there like that. The originally restless people started to calm down after seeing Jun Qingshang''s smiling yet not smiling expression.


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly, "Third Imperial Brother, this is a crime of conspiracy. There''s still time to let go of this matter now, the Emperor will only treat this matter as a joke."


    "Since you''ve already done it, you won''t let go!" Jun Qingfeng let out a cold laugh, and his gloomy voice sounded once again: "Since none of you are willing, then die!"


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly, this man was truly stubborn.


    Seeing that Jun Qingshang did not make any other movements, Jun Qingfeng was just about to get his men to make a move when he heard a commotion at the door, following which the imperial guards were split into two, and a fully armored imperial guard commander walked in.


    "I did not manage my subordinates well. I hope that Your Highness can atone for your sins!" The head of the imperial guards, Zheng He, was kneeling in the grand hall, both hands holding the seal of the imperial guards.


    Jun Qingshang folded his hands across his chest as he slightly raised the beautiful eyes. He was in charge of the entire imperial Lin Army, and Zheng He had been bedridden for less than half a month.


    Therefore, Jun Qingfeng was destined to lose.


    Jun Qingfeng looked at the person kneeling in the great hall and was shocked. Logically speaking, Zheng He should have been completely paralyzed after taking the last pill yesterday, but why ¡­


    Only now did Jun Qingfeng realize that he had been tricked.


    "Jun Qingshang, you actually tricked us!" Jun Qingfeng was immediately enraged, he did not know where he found a dagger, but he directly rushed towards Jun Qingshang, the assassins in the middle of the imperial guards, maids, and servants all pierced towards the few important ministers in the hall.


    "Imperial guards, listen up!" Zheng He suddenly stood up, holding his command medallion. "Protect the Emperor and everyone."


    An Xiang had already finished off the female dancers long ago, and was watching the lively scene below with Yun Ruoleng. As Yun Ruoleng tapped the melon seeds, he said to the empress dowager, "Imperial Mother, this Jun Qingfeng is also quite ruthless. It''s just that he doesn''t need to use his brain to be ruthless.


    "Girl, you''re still in the mood to talk about this." The empress dowager was shocked by Yun Ruoleng''s calm demeanor. He was not as frightened as he was just now. After all, he had already seen the outcome.


    Jun Qingfeng held the dagger in his hand, and directly thrusted at Jun Qingshang, wanting to seize the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. However, he did not expect Jun Qingshang to have already sensed him.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes were wide open as he looked at Jun Qingfeng in disbelief. This person''s courage was not small, according to his martial arts, Jun Qingshang would not even need a hundred attacks to perfectly win against him. This old man had always been unfathomable!


    Yun Ruoleng had still overestimated Jun Qingfeng. Jun Qingfeng''s martial arts skills were not considered high and he was only in a state of self-preservation. After encountering an expert like Jun Qingshang, he was truly killed in an instant.


    The last thing Jun Qingshang did was open the dagger in his hand, while his other hand directly patted his chest.


    Jun Qingfeng was sent flying by the palm strike, and immediately fainted on the spot.


    Seeing that their master had given up resisting due to his injuries and wanted to bring him away, how could Jun Qingshang give them the chance to do so? He snapped his fingers at the air and a dozen or so An Ying Guards instantly appeared in the great hall. He dealt with this group of people as fast as he could.


    Just like that, the conspiracy was settled. The officials and wives were frightened, and the entire hall was filled with the smell of blood.


    At this time, the little emperor went up on stage. The originally ordinary little emperor stood up and slowly walked down the stairs with his hands behind his back. "This is the result of defying the late emperor''s will and attempting to rebel! If anyone dares to challenge our limits again, we won''t mind having him accompany the three royal uncle s! "


    Yun Ruoleng stopped eating the melon seeds. This little Zheng''s serious look was really cute, the aura around him seemed to be a little similar to Jun Qingshang''s, but it was still not as strong as his.


    Jun Rushi did not kill them all, he sent out an order, Jun Qingfeng was demoted to being a commoner, and was imprisoned in the imperial mausoleum for life. Ling Wang had participated, and simply did not commit any grave mistakes, while Prince Ling was demoted to being a king, and was leaving Ling Prefecture, and could not enter the capital unless summoned.


    She did not expect that the young emperor would think things clearly at such a young age, and would even reward and punish his subjects. After settling all these matters, the banquet could not continue.


    Jun Qingshang seemed to have been prepared for a long time. He glanced at Little De, who understood what was going on and quickly asked everyone to move to the "Heart Lotus Altar".


    The lotus seat was a lotus seat. It looked quite large and the fragrance of flowers wafted over from time to time. The refreshing feeling made people forget about what just happened.


    With just a glance, one could tell that it was just a conspiracy. The reason why everyone wanted to go, was because they did not want to arouse suspicion. This Jun Qingshang was truly far-sighted.


    "What''s wrong?" Just as Yun Ruoleng was ridiculing himself in his heart, he heard a gentle voice sound out above his head. Yun Ruoleng subconsciously raised his head to look at her and smiled at him.


    Jun Qingshang gently rubbed her furry head. His gaze almost melted Yun Ruoleng''s heart.


    All the famous ladies below the stairs gritted their teeth in hatred as they watched this scene, but they could not do anything to Yun Ruoleng.

 C249

    Jun Qingshang''s gentleness was only given to Yun Ruoleng. It was unknown if it was due to Yun Ruoleng''s good luck that he was able to receive the protection of two men with authority in this world. Moreover, there was also a woman with extremely high authority.


    Everyone was so jealous that their eyes turned red, they even thought of a way to seduce Jun Qingshang, but they did not get even the slightest bit of attention from him.


    After they had their fill, the little Emperor left with the empress dowager. Feng Tu was the second one to leave. Today was a good day, so he had to go back and take a good rest. Immediately after, the rest of the people brought their families away from the Xin Lian Terrace. Not long later, Jun Qingshang saw the slightly tired Yun Ruoleng sitting in his seat and napping.


    Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, and comforted her while stroking her smooth hair: "Sleep for a while, this banquet will continue in a while."


    "Then wake me up when you leave." Yun Ruoleng was really sleepy, and as he spoke, his eyes were already closed.


    With that said, Jun Qingshang heard the sound of heavy breathing, and could not help but shake his head. It had been difficult for her to sit for so long today.


    Yun Ruoleng slept soundly, when she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach. At the beginning, it was only a dull ache, but then she slowly felt a spasm. Yun Ruoleng suddenly opened her eyes, her delicate eyebrows knitted together as she looked at Jun Qingshang helplessly with her phoenix eyes: "Pain!"


    Jun Qingshang was obviously startled, as he reacted and asked: "Where''s the pain?"


    "Stomach..." "Come out, come out." Yun Ruoleng tightly gripped Jun Qingshang''s arm. His face was somewhat pale, and his forehead was covered in a thin layer of sweat.


    Jun Qingshang didn''t care that much as he carried Yun Ruoleng up. As he walked, he shouted at An Xiang anxiously, "Pass down the royal physician!"


    Yun Ruoleng only felt a warm current flowing out of his stomach as the hand holding Jun Qingshang''s shoulder became tighter and tighter. The expression on his face was extremely painful, this was the first time Jun Qingshang had seen her in such pain, not like this last time when she was injured.


    Jun Qingshang carried her into the palace closest to Xin Lian and kicked open the door. Then, he placed Yun Ruoleng on the bed.


    Yun Ruoleng held onto her stomach and bit her lips tightly. Investigate for This King! No one is to be let off! "


    His child was extremely eye-catching. This was his first child, yet he lost track of the situation. If he found out who it was, he would tear him to pieces!


    The imperial physician was carried by An Xiang, and following him were two thirty to forty year old old old nanny. Together with the imperial physician, the three of them chased Jun Qingshang out without hesitation.


    "Get hot water and towels." The more experienced nanny stopped Jun Qingshang: "Women have blood-red lights when they give birth to children, you shouldn''t come in. Besides, which woman doesn''t have a baby for a while? "It''ll be ready in a moment. Please be at ease and wait."


    This nanny was also bold, even daring to stop the Regent.


    Jun Qingshang''s face immediately changed upon hearing these words. He still wanted to rush in, but Jun JinRou, who was standing by the side, pulled him back, "I''ll go watch. Don''t worry."


    Jun Qingshang paused for a moment, then nodded his head. He was just worried about Yun Ruoleng, and seeing that all the doctors in the imperial hospital had been called by him, he felt more at ease.


    A series of screams came out from the room, the door was pulled open, and servants carrying pans of blood walked in and out, not daring to look at Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang''s face became even uglier, his entire body releasing cold air.


    "Trash!" A bunch of trash! " Jun Qingshang could no longer hold back his anger. With an extremely unsightly expression, he kicked the imperial physician closest to him. "If something were to happen to her, all of you don''t need to live anymore."


    The imperial physician was so frightened that his entire body trembled, and he knelt on the ground, not even daring to make a sound. Just then, Jun JinRou walked out, and looked at Jun Qingshang with a rare serious expression.


    "Aunty ¡­" Jun Qingshang calmed down a little, but the anxiety on his face that had yet to fade revealed how he was feeling.


    Jun JinRou forced out a smile, "The child was not saved, but Leng Er is fine. "You can go in later after you''re done cleaning up."


    It was only then that Jun Qingshang let out a breath of relief and turned around to walk to the door. There, the sect elders and ministers had gathered, and Jun Qingshang''s cold gaze swept over everyone.


    Everyone breathed out. His pressure was too strong, to the point that no one dared to look straight at him.


    The room was cleaned up, Jun Qingshang stood at the door for a while, without saying a word, he turned and walked in, An Ying who looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated, was completely ignored by Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang rushed into his room, his heart aching as he looked at the pale little face. In order to not wake her up, Jun Qingshang quietly sat on the edge of her bed.


    "This girl will definitely be hurt when she wakes up." Jun JinRou walked over to Jun Qingshang''s side and gently patted his shoulder, "You cannot be depressed. You must find out who killed your child. Just now, the Imperial Physician said that she was here because of the musk, so you should follow up on this clue. "


    Because everyone knew that Yun Ruoleng was pregnant, and couldn''t even enter the palace with musk, it was still easy to investigate.


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, then invited Jun JinRou out and closed the door.


    Due to the noise, coupled with the bellyful of pain from his body, Yun Ruoleng''s sleep was unstable. Her delicate eyebrows knitted together, causing Jun Qingshang to feel a pang in his heart. Jun Qingshang sat beside her and helped her pull her blanket. With a face full of gentleness, he helped Yun Ruoleng all by himself.


    The loss of a child was a great matter. The empress dowager, who had originally been resting, quickly got up to check on the situation when she heard of this. However, she was stopped by the nanny beside her.


    "It''s already deep into the night, stop tormenting yourself."


    "I don''t have any grandchildren, so why don''t you go take a look?" The nanny beside the empress dowager laughed bitterly. Even the empress dowager had never been so worried when the little emperor was born.


    The empress dowager was really stubborn when she got stubborn. Ordinary people wouldn''t be able to persuade her otherwise. Thus, the nanny could only help the empress dowager put on her clothes and then lead the group towards the palace in a grandiose manner.


    At the same time, the little emperor also rushed over, with a stern face, he told the official who was waiting for him, who was standing behind him the reason for Yun Ruoleng''s small change, and after hearing it, Jun Rushi immediately ordered his men to search him.


    When the Empress Dowager found out the reason, she had a few stools moved and sat at the door. The little Emperor sat beside her, and Jun JinRou also sat down. Because she was not satisfied with the speed of the search, she quickly finished it, but the result was not very good, because there was no musk in the group, not even a bag.


    "It''s already late at night, so the empress dowager and emperor should let them go back first. They still have to go to court early tomorrow." Jun JinRou said gently as she looked at the officials, who were being tormented by the grandfather and grandson duo.


    The empress dowager glared at her. Jun JinRou was helpless. She had only said a few words of justice, so how could she be hated by this imperial concubine?

 C250

    "Although we are loyal subjects of a nation, we should not have doubted ourselves. However, after what happened in the day, we still feel that we have Jun Qingfeng''s accomplices in our court. Therefore, before this matter is investigated thoroughly, no one is allowed to leave this palace! " The little emperor was very imposing. Even if the ministers were displeased, they had no choice but to stay.


    After all, the Regent and the Princess were born prematurely at night, and people with intelligence would associate these two matters.


    In order to investigate the case quickly, the little emperor had his trusted aides investigate the case one by one. Including the serving maids, there were more than two thousand people there. It was already the morning of the second day.


    But there was no result.


    Yun Ruoleng, who had rested for an entire night, barely regained some energy. When she woke up, she saw a person lying beside her and couldn''t help but frown.


    Jun Qingshang was woken up by her and was not angry, the arms around her subconsciously tightened, the two of them embraced each other on the bed but did not speak.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his face that was the size of a palm, a pair of shiny black eyes turned, and a cunning look flashed past his eyes.


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes, his gaze landing on her small, pale face. After a long while, he sighed, "Ruo Er, it''s this king who failed to protect you and your son."


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng smiled, but his eyes were misted over, and he was so stubborn that he did not shed tears: "It''s because I did not protect him well, I''m useless ¡­ ¡­"


    "Silly girl, it''s my fault. Why did you place the blame on yourself?" Jun Qingshang frowned, this was the first time he had seen Yun Ruoleng being so patient. He could not help but feel even more heartache.


    Jun Qingshang rubbed her hairy head. This girl always liked to take responsibility for herself. Forget it, just make it up to her in the future. Jun Qingshang felt that now was not the time to argue over this matter. The most important thing right now was to find out who the mastermind was.


    Yun Ruoleng arched his back as a cold light flashed past his eyes. No matter who it was, as long as they found him, they would definitely not let him off.


    Some people were released from the palace, while some of the people who came over with Jun Qingfeng before were left behind. The Little Emperor was making a big fuss with the child in Yun Ruoleng''s stomach this time, so the Empress Dowager initially thought that it would take a few more hours before she found out that this was not the case.


    The empress dowager looked at the remaining people and couldn''t help but frown. There was one person that was highly suspicious. She wasn''t the only one who thought so. Even the little Emperor also thought that this person was most likely the mastermind.


    The door to the room was opened by someone. The ancestor and grandson were startled, and turned around to see a gloomy Jun Qingshang walking out. Seeing him come out, Jun Rushi heaved a sigh of relief, patted his butt and said: "Grandmother and I have not slept for the night, we will go back to rest first."


    Jun Qingshang stared at Jun Rushi with a smile that was not a smile. Jun Rushi''s hair stood on end and his eyes were filled with panic.


    The empress dowager yawned. She believed in her son''s abilities and waved him away. "If the girl wakes up at this hour, I''ll go take a look."


    "She just fell asleep!" Jun Qingshang stretched out his hand to stop the empress dowager who was about to enter, his gaze never leaving Jun Rushi''s innocent face.


    The empress dowager''s gaze followed his gaze to Jun Rushi. She saw him staring blankly into space, and it was unknown what he was thinking. The empress dowager lightly pulled on Jun Rushi''s clothes. "Did you do something that displeased your royal uncle?"


    "No, no!" Jun Rushi shook his head with a smile: "How could I do something that would make royal uncle unhappy! Furthermore, royal uncle is unhappy about the fact that I just lost a child, how could I possibly do such a thing! "


    When the empress dowager thought about it, she felt that it made sense. After all, Jun Rushi was just a child. So the Empress Dowager looked at Jun Qingshang again.


    Jun Qingshang laughed coldly, his gaze turned from him to the ministers and their houses, and spat out one word in displeasure: "Shatter!"


    "Difficult?" Her Majesty was stunned.


    It was still the young emperor who recovered from his shock and shot a look at the imperial guards behind him. The reason his own royal uncle would say that the noise was probably because these people had disturbed his imperial aunt''s sleep, so he brought them to another place to continue interrogating.


    Jun Qingshang''s expression finally recovered a little, but the haze on his face had not completely dissipated. His gaze landed on a person standing in the middle of the officials. This person was none other than the Yun Palace''s eldest son, Yun Jun.


    Yun Jun''s entire body shivered as he was stared at by Duan Ling Tian, and a bad feeling assaulted his heart.


    The empress dowager followed Jun Qingshang''s gaze and looked away. "The families that have enmity with that girl and Jun Qingfeng are the Lan and Yun families. It''s impossible for the Lan family to not enter the palace. Then ¡­"


    "Why isn''t it possible for the Lan family?" Jun Qingshang retracted his gaze and sneered. Although the previous Lan family was killed and the Lan family was on the decline, that was a hundred year old family. How could they disappear just like that? The palace and the various residences had probably been planted here for a long time already!


    "Could the royal uncle be thinking of the Lan family sending their men to harm us?" Jun Rushi almost jumped up from the chair he was sitting on. If not for Jun JinRou pulling him along, he would have ignored his image as an emperor right now.


    Seeing his actions and the way he spoke, Jun Qingshang slightly frowned, and his gaze became colder: "As an emperor, how did you learn to not panic when you''re dealing with things?"


    The little Emperor was unable to raise his head due to his royal uncle''s teachings. Jun JinRou gently caressed his little head and comforted him, "royal uncle is good for you. This is also a way to avoid enemies."


    Jun JinRou''s words were light as a feather, brushing against his heart. The little Emperor raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him. He couldn''t help but smile at her, indicating that he was fine.


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze continuously swept across the crowd, and landed on a few people in the end. After that, he called An Ying over and whispered a few words into his ear before ordering everyone to release.


    "Why are you letting him go just like that?" The empress dowager looked at Jun Qingshang in puzzlement.


    "The Queen Mother is still worried that she won''t be able to sleep!" Even the empress dowager who was high up in the sky was angered to death by his words. Just as she was about to vent her anger on Jun Qingshang, he had already stepped past her and left.


    Jun Rushi looked at Jun Qingshang''s back, and his plump little face creased into a ball, "What is royal uncle trying to do? Is this matter really going to end like this? "


    The ancestor and grandson looked at each other. According to Jun Qingshang''s personality, he definitely would not give up on investigating the case, he must be planning something.


    An Ying followed Jun Qingshang''s instructions and released the group of people. They swiftly sent people to follow the few people Jun Qingshang pointed out, and in less than six hours, they obtained all the answers they wanted.

 C251

    An Ying returned to the Regent¡¯s Mansion quietly while carrying the good news.


    Because Yun Ruoleng was a small child, she was not allowed to see the wind for the next few days, so she temporarily stayed in this palace. The little emperor was afraid that she would be lonely, so he arranged for a fresh maid to come serve her.


    Yun Ruoleng knew that she was nothing in front of the imperial power, she wouldn''t dare to disobey the decree. Unless Jun Qingshang was present, she could still give it a try.


    Yun Ruoleng and the little palace girl stared at each other. After a long while, Yun Ruoleng finally sighed.


    "What''s your name?"


    "Your servant Zi Yue, this year ¡­"


    "An Xiang, take her away!" Yun Ruoleng only needed to know her name, as for the others, she was not interested, and did not want to know either.


    An Xiang replied. To the little palace maid, he was more polite and made a gesture to invite her in. The young palace maid, Lucky, backed out. Before she left, she couldn''t help but give Yun Ruoleng a second glance.


    "Esteemed wangfei, the prince has left the palace to settle some matters. It won''t be too late for you to return after you''ve taken care of yourself." After An Xiang chased her out, he returned to his room and helped her tidy up the quilt. "These few days, you can only look like you''re on the bed. The empress dowager said that a small child like you can''t be careless."


    "Then go and find a few books. It''s a crime for me to be lying in bed today!" Yun Ruoleng didn''t want to stay in bed for one day? He looked at the mosquito net on the top of the bed.


    An Xiang conjured out a bunch of grapes from his body: "I will arrange it right now, if you want to eat fruits here, you can eat less than you need to!"


    "Got it, got it!" Yun Ruoleng waved her hand repeatedly. Although her mood was a little better now, it was still not very good. Looking at the bunch of grapes, she didn''t feel like eating them.


    After An Xiang left, he could not help but look at Yun Ruoleng who was in a daze while staring at Grape, then turned and left, closing the door behind him.


    When the servant called Zi Yue saw that An Xiang had left, she carefully carried a pot of tea to the entrance of the room and stood there. When An Xiang returned, his expression immediately turned black. He went up and berated: "What are you standing here for?"


    "Your servant is standing here because I''m afraid that Princess Hua-Yang might need me. Why are you so angry, Sister An Xiang? " Zi Yue expressed that she could not understand An Xiang''s actions.


    An Xiang sneered and did not say anything. The people the little Emperor sent could not be refused, but they could not not not discipline themselves either. It was just that this was within the palace, so it was better for him to speak less. An Xiang only rolled his eyes at her as he pushed open the door and entered. He did not forget to turn his head and say: "You are not allowed to enter without permission."


    Zi Yue, who wanted to follow him in, stopped in her tracks.


    Zi Yue was still the most obedient, and did not do anything out of line. An Xiang also could not chase her away because of this, so he could only enter the room and quickly close the door, then quickly ran to Yun Ruoleng''s bedside and told her everything.


    After Yun Ruoleng heard this, he frowned. He did not know whether this servant was sent by the little emperor to supervise him or to answer to him. Yun Ruoleng sighed, he would probably have to live here for a period of time.


    "Don''t worry, wangfei. The prince is almost back, don''t worry." As An Xiang said that, his eyes stared right at the door, his expression becoming serious. He didn''t believe that the emperor was going to send her to the prince''s mansion?


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. She felt that she shouldn''t have such a great enmity towards the little girl, but she didn''t know how she should explain herself when the words were just about to reach her mouth. He could only sigh in his heart, "Then that''s good."


    "Princess Hua-Yang has been preoccupied with her own matters these past few days. Are you worried about the prince?" An Xiang frowned when he saw her, and his expression didn''t look too good either.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t speak, he only waved her hand, with an expression that had never been seen before. An Xiang''s heart tightened as he didn''t know what to do.


    An Xiang quietly retreated a few steps, but he did not leave the room.


    Yun Ruoleng did not force her and sat on the bed with a book to read.


    In the forest not far from the city, Jun Qingshang, who was still dressed in his purple robe, looked exceptionally grave. An Ying, who was standing beside him, also had a similar unsightly expression.


    "Mistress, will they really be here?" Looking at the quiet surroundings, An Ying''s suspicions that they had received the wrong information.


    Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly knitted, but his expression became even more serious than before. "There''s a mist here, so it shouldn''t be wrong."


    Does the fog have anything to do with them? An Ying looked at Jun Qingshang with a puzzled expression.


    Of course Jun Qingshang would not tell him. As the commander of An Ying''s guards, he would not reveal all of his emotions. What he was worried about now was not their presence, but whether or not these people would sneak into the palace and harm Yun Ruoleng.


    The truth proved that what Jun Qingshang was thinking was, he was interrupted when the matter regarding Yun Ruoleng''s small town was vaguely discovered. Recently, there were many unfamiliar faces that appeared in front of Yun Ruoleng, at first, Yun Ruoleng did not really care about them, but as time passed, Yun Ruoleng felt that something was amiss.


    An Xiang had appeared in front of him for an unknown reason.


    On this day, Yun Ruoleng stayed in his room for a whole day, but still did not see An Xiang in front of him. Yun Ruoleng, who was always on alert, looked at the maids that appeared in front of him from time to time.


    "Where did An Xiang go?" When it was time for dinner, Yun Ruoleng finally could not hold back and asked.


    The young maid only looked at Yun Ruoleng, and did not reply. Yun Ruoleng''s brows could not help but knit together tightly, and his expression was also somewhat ugly. Seeing that the servant was about to leave, Yun Ruoleng shouted coldly: "Stop!"


    The young maid was startled for a moment. She turned her head to look at Yun Ruoleng and asked coldly, "What does the wangfei need?"


    "Who sent you?" Yun Ruoleng''s aura instantly changed as an invisible pressure rushed towards her.


    The maidservant''s blessing was neither servile nor overbearing. She replied, "This servant is the maidservant by the side of the grand imperial concubine. Her name is Ah Shui."


    Yun Ruoleng''s small face, which was the size of a palm, was covered in frost as her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly. "Where is this wangfei''s personal maid?"


    "Wangfei, don''t worry. Miss An Xiang has returned to the Duke Palace for some matters, she should be back soon." As soon as Ah Shui finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave. How could Yun Ruoleng allow her to leave so easily? His fingers moved slightly, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Ah Shui.


    "Ugh ¡­" Ah Shui''s eyes were filled with horror. Without waiting for her to react, a cold hand had already grabbed her slender neck, as if it would snap in the next second.


    "Speak!" Yun Ruoleng''s face darkened, she had lost her child, so her temper had become increasingly colder. Now that An Xiang, who was like a sister, had suddenly disappeared, Yun Ruoleng could not help but release his killing intent.

 C252

    Ah Shui could not breathe due to her strangling him. His small white face was flushed red and his long and narrow eyes revealed fear. He forced out a single word, "No ¡­" Know... "Dao ¡­"


    I don''t know! Yun Ruoleng sneered, and without being polite, he twisted Ah Shui''s neck.


    This wasn''t the first time she had killed someone. She definitely wouldn''t be polite to someone like him, whose origins were unknown!


    Ah Shui was killed, Yun Ruoleng did not reveal any sign of fear, in order to not attract attention from the outside, Yun Ruoleng did not call anyone in to take care of it, but carefully walked to the door and opened it a little.


    He could clearly see the scene outside through the crack. The yard was still the same as when he first came here, but the people inside were people he didn''t know at all. The little emperor had come to see him a few times these days, but he didn''t stay for long.


    Perhaps even he didn''t notice that the person beside her had already been replaced!


    Yun Ruoleng looked at his current situation and couldn''t help but crease his brows slightly. He turned his head and coldly glanced at the person lying on the ground. The corner of her mouth curled up slightly as a cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.


    The palace was finally heavily guarded, so it would be easier to go out than to speak, so she could not rashly leave. Yun Ruoleng moved extremely quickly, and quickly changed the clothes of the servant girl. After that, he moved the servant''s corpse onto the bed and laid down, then sat in front of the dressing table and combed his hair like the servant girl.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at his makeup and felt that it was still too easy to recognize, so he took out a veil from his bag and put it on his face.


    Yun Ruoleng felt that he had cleaned up properly before breaking the porcelain pieces on the table. The sound of "peng pang pang pang" echoed outside and the people outside quickly asked: "Did something happen to the wangfei?"


    "I''m fine!" Yun Ruoleng carefully leaned on the door: "Come in and clean up."


    "Yes sir!" One of the maidservants answered, and the door was pushed open. Yun Ruoleng''s body moved behind her, the door closed and before the servant could react, his fingers had already twisted her neck.


    Yun Ruoleng was already drenched in sweat, her body was still weak, but she knew that she could not stay here any longer, so she pulled open the door and quickly walked out.


    Fortunately, there weren''t many people in the palace, so no one noticed her leaving in a hurry. After Yun Ruoleng walked out of the great hall, he heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at the unfamiliar palace, he couldn''t help but have a headache.


    Yun Ruoleng was smart, she raised her head and looked at the sun above her. The little emperor''s royal study was facing south, and she was standing in the east side. There were only two paths left for her, then ¡­


    Using the sun to determine the direction, Yun Ruoleng quickly reached a familiar place. It was a small path that led from the Peace Palace to the imperial study.


    It was unknown whether she was lucky or not, but during the entire journey, no one around her had asked her a single question.


    After Yun Ruoleng came out from the palace, she directly went to the imperial study. She had an outstanding appearance, but she used a veil to cover her face.


    When she passed a pavilion, she suddenly stopped and her expression changed.


    He looked at Yun Ruoleng with a heavy gaze. Without waiting for her to speak, he had already walked out of the pavilion, and his demonic phoenix eyes slightly swept across the floor: "I didn''t think that the grand wangfei would be walking around the palace in a maid attire!"


    "Your highness has recognized the wrong person." Just as Yun Ruoleng wanted to avoid him and leave, he was grabbed by the shoulder by the demon claw. Yun Ruoleng''s expression turned slightly cold, and threw him over the shoulder with one hand.


    It seemed that Diagram was already prepared. While she was holding onto his hand, he quickly pulled her into his embrace with his other hand.


    Yun Ruoleng''s back was tightly pressed against his body, and a faint sandalwood scent wafted into her nose.


    "His temper is even worse than before, but his brain isn''t as smart as before." The Phoenix Diagram loosened its grip on Yun Ruoleng and smiled charmingly, "You really are three years pregnant and an idiot."


    "Your Highness, please have some self-respect!" Yun Ruoleng was too lazy to say so much to him, so he broke free from the imprisonment and walked forward.


    Seeing that she was about to leave, Huang Tu immediately followed her: "Little Ruo Er, what are you wearing this for?"


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t even bother to look at him as she walked forward with extremely fast steps. However, no matter how much she increased her speed, she was unable to shake off the tail behind her. Yun Ruoleng''s small face, which was covered by the veil, turned black and white, but he still endured it and did not flare up. After all, it was safer to follow Huang Teng.


    It was not because of the evil in Yun Ruoleng''s heart, but because Huang Teng was following them like a spy. That was why Yun Ruoleng wanted to drag him down with her.


    There were dangers everywhere in the Imperial Palace, and ever since Jun Qingshang dealt with that group of people, the rest of the people had not been completely wiped out. Although she did not know who the grand imperial concubine was, Yun Ruoleng knew very well that there were only two imperial concubines in the palace.


    One didn''t ask about the secular world while the other was the Fourth Prince''s mother. For such a person to be able to live until now, one could imagine just how powerful she was.


    Yun Ruoleng turned left and right, finally arriving at the entrance of the imperial study. After stopping at the entrance, Yun Ruoleng could not help but turn back and glare at Phoenix Diagram.


    "This... "No need." Huang Tu raised his head to look at the big words on the stairs, his eyes flashed with emotions, and very quickly, Yun Ruoleng was unable to catch the words.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted, took off her veil and walked up. Standing at the entrance of the imperial study, Little De looked at Yun Ruoleng who was dressed in palace maid attire with a weird expression on his face. Just as he was about to welcome him, he heard Yun Ruoleng''s cold question: "Where''s the emperor?"


    Little De Zi did not dare delay, and immediately told Yun Ruoleng about the Little Emperor''s situation, causing Yun Ruoleng''s eyebrows to knit even more tightly, and his face to become extremely ugly: "What are you trying to say, about the borders?"


    "The emperor is in for a meeting!" This servant doesn''t know either. " Little De Zi paused for a moment, then hurriedly said to a young eunuch at the side, "Little Xuan Zi, bring the wangfei to the hall next door to rest. Little De''s paused for a moment, then quickly said to the young eunuch at the side," Little Xuan Zi, take the wangfei to the hall next door to rest.


    "Thank you for the reminder, Eunuch." Yun Ruoleng was still polite, but the solemness on his face did not lessen. He nodded to Little De Zi, and then followed a young eunuch into the palace.


    Little Xuan Zi was Little De''s disciple and also Little Emperor''s playmate. Compared to Little De, he was much more virtuous and respected. Little Xuan Zi had taken a fancy to Little Emperor''s heart. Of course, there were some big matters.

 C253

    When Yun Ruoleng walked into the great hall, he discovered that he was inside a warm pavilion, the temperature was extremely comfortable. After walking for such a long distance, Yun Ruoleng was truly tired, and after yawning, he leaned against his bed and fell asleep.


    Even though Yun Ruoleng had woken up, she did not open her eyes. Because she did not feel any killing intent, so there was no need for her to wake up.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up again, he was woken up by the noise outside.


    Yun Ruoleng unhappily frowned, he shook his stiff arms and got up, walking out.


    Standing at the door, Yun Ruoleng could clearly hear what was going on outside, but the more she heard, the darker her expression became. It was unknown if it was because she could not accept what she had heard, but no matter what, the more she heard, the uglier her expression became, and she could not hold herself back and directly opened the door.


    The door opened, and the two men who were arguing outside froze. When they saw who was standing in front of them, they subconsciously wanted to leave.


    "Halt!" Yun Ruoleng felt as if he had been dropped into an icehouse as he continuously released cold air, "Explain everything clearly! Otherwise, no one can even think of leaving! "


    "Princess, have mercy!"


    "Princess, have mercy!" It was easy to imagine the audacity of the two of them when they were discussing the Regent in the Emperor''s palace.


    Yun Ruoleng was not an idiot, these two must have been ordered to do this by someone, otherwise how would they dare to say such things in the Little Emperor Palace, as for mercy ¡­ That would depend on how the little emperor dealt with him.


    "This ¡­" They looked at each other, a trace of fear flashing through their eyes. They both knew that this wangfei wasn''t someone to be trifled with, but who would have thought that she''d run all the way here!? I thought a quarrel wouldn''t attract much attention... The two young eunuchs were already regretting their actions.


    "Don''t say it?" Yun Ruoleng''s face became even more unsightly, a cold intent flashed past her phoenix eyes: "Then go speak with the emperor in front of him!"


    "No ¡­"


    "No ¡­" "No need ¡­"


    "It''s over." Yun Ruoleng interrupted the two with a cold voice and laughed coldly. His gaze fell upon the group of people that were slowly walking towards her, and his pitch-black eyes darkened slightly. Looking at the worried little Emperor, he couldn''t help but frown slightly.


    "If Imperial Aunt isn''t happy, then just kill her." The little emperor''s expression didn''t change at all. He waved his hand, signaling the people behind him to bring the two of them down.


    Since Jun Rushi had mentioned it, then he would naturally not take back his orders. However, he killing two people just like that, which made her a little curious.


    "You guys wait outside!" Jun Rushi took a step forward and said to the people behind him with a cold voice. Little De Zi, who was ready to follow them, had no choice but to withdraw his steps and respectfully stood guard at the door for them.


    Seeing that his expression was not good, but the aura around him was extremely strong, Yun Ruoleng unconsciously opened up a path for him, and without being polite, the little emperor directly stepped into the room. The room''s door was opened as Yun Ruoleng and the Little Emperor sat on either side of a couch, with a small table in the middle with melon fruits placed on the table. Yun Ruoleng swept a glance over Jun Rushi and the melon fruits, and in the end, he couldn''t help but ask, "Your royal uncle has been out for quite a few days, have you said that he would be back anytime soon?"


    "Nope." The little emperor''s bright eyes stared at Yun Ruoleng: "Why did Imperial Aunt come out by herself from the Hall of Prosperity? Did something happen? "


    "An Xiang is missing. All the people in the Hall of Prosperity who were familiar with him have been replaced." Yun Ruoleng''s words were like a bomb. Jun Rushi immediately jumped up from his seat and looked at Yun Ruoleng with an expression of disbelief.


    "What!"


    "After entering the palace for two days, the number of times An Ying has appeared in front of me has decreased. Yesterday and today, I did not even see her shadow, I think something must have happened to her."


    This matter was very obvious, someone wanted to replace the person beside Yun Ruoleng, and their next goal was to kill her. Yun Ruoleng knew that Jun Rushi understood as well. It was just that he could not alert the enemy or else he would not be able to catch the mastermind.


    "No wonder there have been so many pestering me recently. So it was all part of my plan. Don''t worry Imperial Aunt, this place is very safe." Jun Rushi patted her shoulder and comforted her: "royal uncle will be back tomorrow. Don''t worry."


    Yun Ruoleng''s worries were finally relieved, she suddenly remembered what she said when she killed Ah Shui, and so she told Jun Rushi about the words.


    Jun Rushi frowned and nodded his head: "We will send people to investigate this matter thoroughly, as for you ¡­"


    With a straight face, Jun Rushi said in all seriousness: "Rest well and don''t run all over the place. An Xiang will also send people to find them, and if they are alive, we will see their bodies if they are dead. "


    Yun Ruoleng originally wanted to ask about more things, but he waved his hand and interrupted her. Yun Ruoleng was also helpless, she suddenly realised that after the events that happened that day, the little emperor had finally grown up, the atmosphere around her had changed, and she now had a bit of the majesty of an emperor, just that all of this was still not enough.


    Jun Qingshang rushed over and finally arrived at the capital at noon of the second day. Before even entering the capital city, he had already seen a group of people leaving the capital city. Jun Qingshang''s expression turned serious as the carriage stopped in front of him, and when Jun Qingshang saw the demonic face that peeked out from the carriage, his handsome face instantly collapsed.


    "Jun Qingshang, are you that unhappy with this duke''s decision?" Phoenix''s eyes were filled with anger. Every time this person looked at him, he would always have such a haughty and aloof feeling. How was he any worse off than him?


    "You''re leaving?" Jun Qingshang''s gaze landed on the person who was leading the way as he said, "Take care!"


    The ambassador nodded at him, causing Huang Tu''s expression to become even more unsightly: "Jun Qingshang!"


    However, Jun Qingshang acted as if he did not hear them, and gave them a way out. Huang Tu gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do. As Huang Tu watched Jun Qingshang walk further and further, his devilish face was filled with haze.


    Jun Qingshang rode Traceless Snowsteps and directly headed towards the Imperial Palace. Inside the Imperial Palace, Yun Ruoleng had risen early to wait for someone, but after eating breakfast, he waited for a long time and did not see Jun Qingshang''s figure. Yun Ruoleng paced around the room, and walked who knows how many times, and he had even asked countless of times about the young eunuchs guarding the entrance.


    Jun Qingshang rushed to the entrance of the palace and took a deep breath. His stiff and cold face revealed a hint of anxiety. It had been a long time since he last saw his lovely wife.


    He dismounted and walked into the palace. An Ying did not follow behind him as he stood at the entrance of the palace. He knew clearly in his heart that his master would need time to be alone with his wife.


    Little Bye is better than new!


    What An Ying completely did not expect was that the moment he stepped into the palace, he was stopped by someone.

 C254

    Jun Qingshang was immediately invited to the royal study. Jun Qingshang originally wanted to ignore it, but the person who came directly said that the Emperor had extremely urgent matters that required the help of the Duke.


    "Your majesty, it''s best if you really do have something to talk to this king!" Jun Qingshang stepped into the royal study with a gloomy face.


    Jun Rushi was so frightened that his whole body trembled. The hand holding the brush shook, and a large drop of ink fell onto the memorial. Jun Rushi innocently looked at Jun Qingshang: "Who angered the royal uncle?"


    "Other than you, who else dares offend This King!" Jun Qingshang randomly found a place to sit down. At this moment, his heart was so anxious that he wanted to look at Yun Ruoleng. He simply did not have the time to waste with this brat.


    Jun Rushi also knew that this royal uncle was completely focused on his imperial aunt, but due to the important matter, he had no choice but to let him come over first. In order not to completely infuriate his royal uncle, Jun Rushi smiled in embarrassment: "It isn''t too late for royal uncle to leave after reading this imperial report."


    Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes flashed with killing intent, taking the imperial report that Jun Rushi threw over, his gaze swept across the imperial report, his face changing greatly: "Who gave these people the guts!"


    "royal uncle now knows why we asked you to come here first. The situation is really urgent, and we are unable to do anything about it." Jun Rushi spoke pitifully.


    But Jun Qingshang knew the true face of his nephew. Why he had been called over, was it not just to watch the show?


    Humph! With a "pa" sound, Jun Qingshang closed the imperial report in his hand, stood up and walked out. Jun Rushi did not stop him this time. Since he had already done what he had to do, there was no need for him to do anything else.


    Jun Qingshang stepped out of the Imperial Study, and Xiao De Zi quickly welcomed Jun Qingshang and led the way. Yun Ruoleng stayed in the side hall that was close to the Imperial Study, and he quickly met the person he missed every day.


    Looking at the person who had lost a lot of weight compared to when he left, Jun Qingshang''s gaze darkened slightly. Standing at the entrance of the hall, he looked at the person walking towards him with his shiny black eyes. His eyes had unconsciously turned red.


    "Lord Qing ¡­" "You ¡­ You''re back ¡­" Yun Ruoleng forced a smile, the smile on his face stiffened.


    Jun Qingshang took a few steps forward and pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, deeply inhaling the unique scent from her body.


    Yun Ruoleng reached out and hugged his skinny waist, a single sparkling tear slowly flowed down the corner of her eye. However, her face was brimming with a light smile.


    The two of them held each other. As Little De saw the faint smile on Lin Ming''s face, he slowly took a few steps back and quietly left.


    After a while, Yun Ruoleng''s mood calmed down a bit and she turned away from Jun Qingshang''s embrace. Raising her delicate little face, she carefully examined the man in front of her.


    "Ruo Er..." Jun Qingshang frowned slightly: "Why are you running around when you''re not well?"


    If he didn''t remember wrongly, she should be in the Hall of Prosperity. Why did she come here?


    "Come in, we''ll talk slowly." Only now did Yun Ruoleng remember those few days when he was in the palace with danger lurking in all directions, his small hand held onto Jun Qingshang''s hand as they walked towards the side hall.


    Jun Qingshang saw that she was extremely nervous, and her eyebrows knitted even tighter. If he was not mistaken, what was wrong with her for her to bring him out of the door in such a serious manner.


    After entering the side hall, Yun Ruoleng closed the doors and sat Jun Qingshang on a chair. She herself sat in his embrace and spoke in a low, muffled voice: "After you left, I was alone in the Imperial Palace. Originally, An Xiang was by my side to serve me, but yesterday, he could not even see Jun Qingshang''s figure.


    "Within a few days, I will be locked up in the Hall of Prosperity like a criminal. That day, when he took advantage of the opportunity to escape, it was very strange that although the palace seemed calm and tranquil, there were hidden murderous intents everywhere. Qing Xin, tell me, was An Xiang killed? "


    Jun Qingshang''s brain quickly calculated Yun Ruoleng''s words, and the expression on his face became somewhat heavy: "Looks like she really couldn''t resist taking action, it''s just that you don''t have to worry about that."


    No need to worry? Yun Ruoleng suspected but still nodded her head. Since she wasn''t worried, she would hand the whole matter over to him, and would only pity that girl An Xiang.


    Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng chatted in the room for a while, when there was a knock on the door. Yun Ruoleng looked at each other, and immediately heard the voice from outside: "royal uncle, Aunt Huang, let''s have lunch together!"


    Yun Ruoleng smiled faintly at Jun Qingshang, and got up from his embrace to tidy up the wrinkles on his clothes, then turned to open the door. Jun Qingshang pulled her into his embrace with one hand and snappily replied: "Come in!"


    Yun Ruoleng stuck his head out from his embrace, his shiny black eyes continuously giving her meaningful glance, but he didn''t expect Jun Qingshang to directly ignore her gaze. The beautiful eyes was slightly raised, and the current him was still as handsome and confident as before.


    The door opened with a "creak" sound, and a bright yellow figure walked in from outside. Jun Rushi could only feel her temples throbbing, as she saw the two of them hugging each other sloppily.


    "Can royal uncle pay more attention in my palace?" Jun Rushi couldn''t help but speak up when he saw them get fed up with it.


    Who was Jun Qingshang? Would he go against his own heart because of those rules? It was obvious that this was an impossible task. A pair of beautiful eyes slightly narrowed as their cold gazes fell on the little Emperor. "Your Majesty, there is no need to mind it."


    Jun Rushi''s body trembled. He curled his lips and ignored the two of them, walking to a round table made of Agarwood and sitting down. He made a hand gesture to the outside.


    The group of servants carried the red lacquer tray in once, lowered their heads, as if they did not see Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng who were sitting at the side. Only after quickly placing the food on the tray back down did they leave.


    Looking at this group of trained palace maids, Yun Ruoleng suddenly thought of the group of maids in the Duke Palaces. They seemed to be very similar to the ones in here, just that they were a little colder.


    The emperor''s meals were truly plentiful. The entire table full of delicacies drooled as they looked at Yun Ruoleng.


    "Humph!" Jun Qingshang let out a cold snort, and the hand that was holding Yun Ruoleng tightened involuntarily: "Let''s go back to the manor to eat!"


    "Eh ¡­"


    "Lord Qing ¡­"


    Jun Rushi was a little taken aback, but Yun Ruoleng glared at him. This man was too petty, to actually fight with a little kid who had just turned 10 years old! He no longer had the imposing appearance of a regent.


    Jun Qingshang didn''t explain anything and just carried Yun Ruoleng and left the side hall without saying a word.


    Yun Ruoleng buried her head in his chest, her small hands fiercely prodding his chest: "How can I face others like this!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s bashful look made Jun Qingshang unconsciously raise the corner of his lips, as he lowered his head and laughed in her ear: "You are this king''s wife, who would dare to object?"

 C255

    Jun Qingshang''s overbearing and ambiguous tone unconsciously caused Yun Ruoleng''s ears to turn red, and the blush on her small face looked even more "edible".


    Jun Qingshang''s adam''s apple rolled as a wave of hot air condensed in one place.


    Yun Ruoleng clearly felt his change, and his face paled bit by bit.


    "Jun Qingshang!" Yun Ruoleng gritted her teeth as she yelled out his name. She didn''t dare to move recklessly in his arms, afraid that she would make him angry.


    Jun Qingshang held her tightly in his arms with his big hands and an awkward expression appeared on his face. Although the guard was curious about the person in the Lord Regent''s embrace, he did not dare take his eyes forward. After all, the aura around Jun Qingshang was too sharp, even if he was embarrassed, he would not be able to tell.


    Jun Rushi sat alone in the side hall as he leisurely ate his lunch. He was naturally happy to see his royal uncle beaten up, but he also had to pay a price.


    In comparison to the price, Jun Rushi felt that it was still worth it.


    The distance between the Imperial Palace and the Duke Palaces wasn''t too far. Coupled with Jun Qingshang''s Traceless Snowsteps, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the Duke Palaces in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. After not coming back for a few days, Yun Ruoleng felt that this place had become a lot more deserted. Peach Blossom and Cui Ying, who had long since received the news, stood at the door and looked left and right. Watching the two of them ride over, the two of them excitedly rushed down the stairs.


    "Miss, you''re finally back." As she said that, she looked at Yun Ruoleng with her teary peach red eyes.


    Jun Qingshang got off the horse, and extended his hand to help Yun Ruoleng off the horse. After Yun Ruoleng stood still, he let out a light laugh and flicked his forehead: "Silly girl, it''s as if I''m not coming back anymore."


    "Your Highness, Princess ¡­" Cui Ying was fortunate to the two of them, so after his gaze swept across them once, he asked, "Didn''t An Xiang enter the palace with Princess Hua-Yang? Why didn''t you come back with me? "


    ''s brows unconsciously furrowed. Although Cui Ying was very suspicious, looking at the two''s faces, he knew that something big had happened and knew that he had said something wrong. He hurriedly lowered his head and did not speak anymore.


    He had already said it out, but there was no possibility of him taking it back. Yun Ruoleng forced a smile: "She''s missing."


    "Missing?" This time, it was Tao Hong who had doubts, that An Xiang would go missing in the Imperial Palace due to his hard work?


    Clearly, Peach Blossom did not believe those words.


    Just as he was about to ask, he was interrupted by a cold stare. Jun Qingshang said coldly: "Return!"


    Yun Ruoleng leaned into Jun Qingshang''s embrace and nodded slightly, her fatigue and heart injury had caused her to lose all her strength. Jun Qingshang embraced her slender waist and slowly walked into the Duke Palace.


    Behind him, Cui Ying and Peach Blossom looked at each other. The two of them seemed to understand something, but they did not say anything and followed him in.


    When the princess and princess returned from the Regent¡¯s Mansion, the lazy servants also began to get busy.


    In the blink of an eye, a year had passed, and Yun Ruoleng''s body was still feeling unwell because of his small birth. Jun Qingshang had looked for a lot of formulas for Yun Ruoleng''s body, but they were still useless.


    "How is it?" Jun Qingshang''s expression was extremely ugly as he looked at the imperial physician kneeling on the ground, and asked in a deep voice.


    "The Empress''s illness is a heart disease." The imperial physician was trembling as he knelt on the ground and carefully replied.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled faintly at him, but his thin little face was still as beautiful and moving as ever. "Why do you have to make it difficult for an imperial physician? "It''s very likely that my heart disease is related to what happened last time at the palace."


    "Ruo Er..." Jun Qingshang reached out to touch her skinny face and sighed helplessly: "I will investigate this matter to clear up the knot in your heart."


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng smiled gently. Her body was fine, it was just that An Xiang had suddenly disappeared, and she still had not found the person who killed her child.


    Hearing Jun Qingshang''s words, Yun Ruoleng did not object.


    Just like what Jun Rushi had said, it was strange for An Xiang to disappear from the Imperial Palace for no reason. If they wanted to see someone''s dead body, even if they were in the Imperial Palace, they couldn''t give up trying to investigate the truth. Furthermore, it was very likely that An Xiang''s disappearance had a great connection to the child''s death.


    The imperial physician was chased out by Jun Qingshang. Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang sat facing each other, speechless looking at each other.


    Because of the return of the Phoenix Diagram, a new round of competition had begun in the imperial hall. It also caused the Emperor of Yue Ling''s guard against the Phoenix Diagram to become even more obvious.


    At this time, Phoenix Diagram also no longer pretended to be nostalgic towards the idle king of the fireworks.


    "Your Highness, the Emperor''s move really made it difficult for you to stop riding a tiger!"


    In the Xian Wang Mansion, Huang Tu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the guards with his red robe. "Ah Zheng, he only told me to restrain myself, but since the day my grandma passed away, I have no intention of restraining myself."


    "But Your Highness, if you act this way, the emperor will be even more wary of you. I''m afraid it''ll be difficult for him to act in the future." Since his childhood, Ah Zheng had followed the Phoenix Diagram, and naturally had his heart set on this fraternal and friendly prince.


    Phoenix Diagram''s expression froze as a trace of killing intent appeared on his face: "Do you think This King will let him live past this year?"


    It was almost the end of the year, and there were plenty of people coming and going to pay tribute to him, so it was not impossible to mess with those things.


    After hearing his words, A Zheng''s expression changed, but he did not utter a single word. After all, many things could not be explained in a single sentence. If the prince did not kill the emperor, then the emperor would also kill him.


    This was the logic behind making the first move first before making the second move.


    Since he wanted to do the Phoenix Diagram, of course, he had to have full confidence in being able to do it.


    As the commander of the three armies of the Heavenly Enlightenment Kingdom, Jun Qingshang would come to the military camp to inspect the three armies before the new year came around. Yun Ruoleng woke up early in the morning, and did not discuss any further with Jun Qingshang. When he went outside to discuss things with An Ying, he quickly ran outside.


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Blossom was holding a pot of hot water as she looked at Yun Ruoleng who was hurriedly walking out, wrapped in a heavy fox fur coat.


    Yun Ruoleng gestured to her to keep quiet: "I''ll go take a look and then come back soon."


    Peach Blossom frowned, there was no longer any time to call her over, Yun Ruoleng had already disappeared without a trace. Peach Blossom couldn''t care so much anymore. She put down the copper pot in her hands, lifted her skirt, and chased after them.


    Where did Yun Ruoleng run off to in a hurry? No one expected the regent''s wife to run to the stables.


    The coachman looked at Yun Ruoleng. Although he did not recognize her, the coachman still easily recognized her clothes.


    "Esteemed wangfei ¡­"


    "What about Treading on the Snow?" Yun Ruoleng waved his hand at the coachman who was about to bow, and his eyes landed on the widest spot in the stable, where a black horse was looking at him with its proud and arrogant eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, he saw mockery in the horse''s eyes.

 C256

    Yun Ruoleng was not mistaken, it was indeed a sarcasm, but why does a horse have such a gaze? Just as Yun Ruoleng was deep in thought, he heard a rustling sound from behind him. He turned around and jumped, "Ta, ta, ta ¡­."


    Treading on the snow intimately while rubbing his head against her shoulder, Yun Ruoleng also recovered from his surprise and touched its head: "Let''s go, I''ll bring you over to play."


    Upon hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, the coachman was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat, "My wife, you absolutely cannot! If the prince knew that you left with Treading on the Snow, this servant will not be able to keep his little life! "


    "Huh?" Yun Ruoleng looked at the coachman with suspicion: "I''m not running out of the manor, what are you worried about?"


    The coachman looked at Yun Ruoleng with a bitter face, and shifted his gaze from Yun Ruoleng to Treading on Snow, before kneeling on the ground with a "putong" sound: "Please spare this servant! "Treading Snow has been ordered not to enter the main yard. If you bring him there, I will still be responsible."


    Yun Ruoleng glared at him: Are you not afraid that I would take care of you right now?


    The coachman clearly felt that Yun Ruoleng was not as terrifying as Jun Qingshang, and in addition to the fact that Yun Ruoleng''s glare was not even the least bit powerful, he naturally felt that this wangfei of his was definitely someone easy to deal with. The coachman shook his head without hesitation. "The wangfei is kind. She won''t make things difficult for me."


    "Kind heart?" Yun Ruoleng pointed at himself in surprise, then as if he thought of something, he laughed out loud, and the coachman looked at her confusedly.


    "Miss ¡­" Peach Blossom had finally found Yun Ruoleng. When she was laughing out loud, she could not help but use her body to stop her. Her eyes glared at the groom kneeling on the ground.


    "Miss, this ¡­"


    "If something happens, the wangfei will bear the burden herself. What are you afraid of?" Peach Blossom was very smart. She knew that her master wanted to go with the prince, but the prince ordered her not to follow, so the young lady thought of a way to take the horse away first.


    He didn''t know if it was because of the phrase "three years of being a fool", but with so many good horses in the stable, the lack of Traceless Snowsteps didn''t stop the prince from going out!


    Of course, she did not dare say these words to Yun Ruoleng, as she was afraid that all the horses in the stable might have suffered.


    The coachman looked at Peach Blossom and then looked at Yun Ruoleng. He felt that this idea was really good and quickly left with his hands cupped in front of his chest. Yun Ruoleng held back his laughter, patted Peach Blossom''s shoulders in appreciation and then gestured for her to start walking.


    Treading Snow and Peach Blossom walked side by side behind Yun Ruoleng, like a bodyguard following Yun Ruoleng. The more Peach Blossom looked, the weirder the expression on her face became, and then she remembered the new order that the Prince had issued not long ago, and she couldn''t help but pray for her young miss.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t know at all that his actions were enough to make the jealousy in Jun Qingshang''s heart overturn.


    Without any hindrances, Yun Ruoleng brought Treading on the Snow to the garden easily. The garden was still green, and it was soon to close. Everyone had wrapped themselves in thick clothes, but the tree inside the Regent¡¯s Mansion had not changed at all, as if it was spring all year round.


    Yun Ruoleng did not have time to appreciate the trees as he quickly walked into the courtyard with the Peach Blossom and Treading on the Snow following him closely. Treading on the snow was truly intelligent, no one was holding onto its reins, it was not running around.


    Just at this time, he heard the sound of horses running at full speed. The sound came from the backyard, and he couldn''t help but rush out of Shang Mo Pavilion.


    As soon as he stepped out of Shang Mo Pavilion, he saw Yun Ruoleng in a pink riding dress with a white coat. She had neatly tied up her hair, causing his eyes to light up, but when he saw the thing behind her, his face immediately changed.


    "Why did you bring it?"


    Yun Ruoleng stuck out her tongue mischievously at him. "I want to go with you.


    After Jun Qingshang heard her explanation, his expression softened a little, but he could only think of one thing: "No!"


    He was a man, who was willing to let their woman show her face outside, in a place that was filled with men. Adding to the fact that Yun Ruoleng was so beautiful, he didn''t want his wife to be watched by others.


    Jun Qingshang''s idea was a bit manly, so Jun Qingshang didn''t even give Yun Ruoleng an explanation as he waved towards Treading on Snow.


    Treading on the Snow looked at his master, feeling very excited! Then he just ran, who cares about Yun Ruoleng''s feelings.


    Yun Ruoleng was first shocked, when he saw Treadsnow obediently standing behind Jun Qingshang, his expression immediately turned ashen: "Truly heartless! To think I was so good to you just now! "


    Jun Qingshang turned around and patted Treadmill''s head, and then smiled: "Silly girl, don''t you know that Treadmill has only known one master in his entire life?"


    Yun Ruoleng let out a cold snort, and embarrassment could hardly be concealed from her face. It was actually the first time she knew that Treading on the Snow, that Treading on the Snow, only knew of one master in her entire life, and the first time she saw Treading on the Snow, she didn''t show any reluctance.


    Jun Qingshang felt that this little girl who was pretending to be arrogant with her chin held right now was extremely cute. Her seventeen year old face looked even more beautiful under the winter sun.


    Jun Qingshang took a few steps forward, raised his hand and caressed her soft hair: "Good girl, stay at home well. I''ll be back in ten days at the most, and even bring you something that you''ve always wanted, how about it?"


    When they talked about conditions, Yun Ruoleng originally wanted to be more firm in his stance. He would reject it, but when he looked at Jun Qingshang''s pair of charming beautiful eyes, he could not help but nod his head.


    Only then did Jun Qingshang place a kiss on her forehead in satisfaction, and said to Treading on the Snow: "Let''s go!"


    Yun Ruoleng stood blankly in place, not even knowing when Jun Qingshang had left. When she finally regained her senses, her small face immediately turned green and white. Peach Blossom who was at the side forcefully resisted the urge to laugh, turned around, glared at her unhappily, and left with a flick of her sleeve.


    After Jun Qingshang left, Yun Ruoleng''s temper started to become a little violent, to the point that Peach Blossom sometimes didn''t dare to approach her.


    And when Jun Rushi was bored in the palace, he would sneak out to chat with Yun Ruoleng, and sometimes Yang Zi Zi would come as well. Time passed by unhurriedly for eight or nine days, and Yun Ruoleng was even more worried about Jun Qingshang, but the Duke Palaces were on high alert.


    As intelligent as Yun Ruoleng was, how could she possibly choose such a method to look for Jun Qingshang!


    Yun Ruoleng cultivated his own energy inside his Water Spirit Pavilion every day, and in these few days, his energy seemed to have risen by a level. This made Yun Ruoleng especially surprised.

 C257

    Within ten days, a complete transformation had taken place within the nation of Yue Ling. The dragon throne in the palace seemed to have been occupied by a completely different person, the phoenix image that was dressed in vermillion dragon robes sat there with a dark and cold expression as it stared at the shivering chancellor below.


    He raised his hand. "royal father''s last wish before his death is to unify the world, and now that our strength is not good, although we are side by side with Heaven''s Enlightenment, our nation''s strength is still inferior to it. From today onwards, our relationship with Heaven''s Enlightenment should be even closer.


    "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" No one dared to object, it was not because of how good his words were, but because Feng Tu''s iron hands had caused them to tremble in fear.


    Jun Qingshang didn''t stay in the camp for long before he returned to the Duke Palace on the tenth day.


    When Jun Qingshang returned to the Duke Palace, he discovered that Yun Ruoleng was not even in the Duke Palace, and even Peach Blossom who was with her was not there.


    Uncle Pearl shook his head. He had not seen her until this hour of the morning.


    Yun Ruoleng acted as if he had disappeared into thin air, making it easy for him to find him. At the same time, Yun Ruoleng took a bamboo hat and ran into the busy streets to watch the show.


    After the Kingdom of Tianqi dealt with the internal strife, the country''s strength kept on rising. Within a few months, the little emperor''s foundation had stabilized. The streets of the capital were also even more busy. When Yun Ruoleng, who had stayed in the palace for several months, stepped out of his house, he discovered that many of the shops on the streets had changed.


    "Miss, where are we going now?" Tao Hong followed behind Yun Ruoleng, happily looking at the bustling atmosphere.


    Yun Ruoleng walked as he looked at the scenery around him. He turned his head and said to Peach Blossom, "Let''s go to Mo Zhan, then go to the embroidery workshop to pick up some clothes, and then go to the antique shop to see if there are any antiques ¡­"


    "But at this time, Your Highness should be back!" Her pink voice was not loud, just enough for Yun Ruoleng to hear.


    Yun Ruoleng''s footsteps paused, she turned around and stared fiercely at Peach Blossom, although her expression was covered by the bamboo hat''s veil, but the Qi around her was hard for people to ignore, "If you bring him up again, I''m worried for you!"


    Peach Blossom shrank back. Was her young miss planning to break all ties with the prince?


    The moment he heard the word ''prince'', he got angry. For so long, his anger had not subsided?


    Tao Hong buried her head and prayed for Jun Qingshang, hoping that he would suddenly appear and save her, the servant girl. She didn''t want to sacrifice herself for him!


    Peach Blossom''s expectations did not come true and instead, she met with a bunch of trouble. Their path was blocked, and a hedonistic young master stood at the front, whistling at Yun Ruoleng.


    "Beauty, take off your veil and let this young master see?" This person was as skinny as a bag of bones. With just a glance, one could tell that he had done too many of those things.


    Yun Ruoleng reached out her hand to stop the peach that was about to step forward, and her soft little hand slightly hooked onto him.


    Young master''s eyes lit up, he eagerly walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side.


    When he walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and was about to reach out to take off her veil, Yun Ruoleng placed his leg on her lifeline, unrestrainedly. Caught off guard, the young master was kicked to the ground, clutching his lower body as he rolled on the cold street.


    Seeing this, the servant behind him was immediately enraged, the two of them ran to the Young Master''s side to support him, while the rest rushed towards Yun Ruoleng.


    Peach Blossom only felt her vision blur for a moment. She had no idea how her young mistress did it, but she was able to beat up the servants who pounced on her so easily that they fell to the floor and rolled on the floor.


    The commotion attracted the attention of the Patrol Unit, and a Patrol Unit member surrounded them. The Patrol Captain looked at the man lying on the ground, then looked at Yun Ruoleng who was standing there with his hands behind his back, and immediately, veins started popping out on his forehead: "Young lady, follow me!"


    "Then do they want to go together?" Yun Ruoleng''s voice was like winter''s snow, gentle yet without a trace of warmth.


    The leader sneered, "You have injured the son of the president of the military. Shouldn''t you come with us?"


    "Doggy eyes look down on people!" Do you know who my young lady is? " Peach Blossom became anxious and took a step forward to block Yun Ruoleng behind her, coldly waiting for the captain.


    The Patrol Officer looked at Peach Blossom seriously and frowned: "Who cares who you are! We''ll talk about it when we get to the prison! "


    Yun Ruoleng''s face darkened inch by inch. She, who had been silent all this time, opened her mouth once again: "So it turns out that the Military Department''s Minister is so bold as to allow his son to tease good women on the streets? "Then I really should go to the emperor and ask if his sons and daughters who are officials can act so brazenly!"


    The patrol captain''s pupils constricted. A woman could easily meet the emperor. One could imagine this woman''s identity. Even if she wasn''t a concubine, she would still be the daughter of a minister.


    Plus, since the son of the minister was in the wrong, he probably wouldn''t be able to get away with it even if he got hurt.


    "Kill them all!" The popinjays were gnashing their teeth and shouting, "They''re lying! "She''s just a bitch, don''t believe her. I saw her flirting with a young master at the Yi-hong District yesterday."


    "Bullshit!" Peach Blossom could not help but curse, "You still have to see who you are slandering! "You''re too gutsy, to actually dare to spout nonsense against my Young Miss!"


    "Peach Blossom!" Yun Ruoleng frowned, he extended his hand and pulled her back, then casually threw out the order badge on her body.


    The leader of the patrol squad stretched out his hand to receive it, and his face instantly changed. He hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "I am blind. Please forgive me!"


    "Hmm?" Tao Hong looked at the identity badge and turned to look at Yun Ruoleng. Seeing him nod his head, Tao Hong then said: "My Young Miss has always liked fairness, you know what to do right?"


    To be able to become the captain of a patrol was not for nothing.


    Yun Ruoleng intentionally hid his identity, but the patrol leader knew that a person who could make the servants of the Regent¡¯s Mansion call them young miss was not a simple person.


    The captain of the patrol respectfully cupped his hands towards Yun Ruoleng: "I will bring them to Jing Zhaoyin."


    Although Jing Zhaoyin was a seventh grade parent, he was the one who handled all the major issues in the capital. Furthermore, Jing Zhaoyin was a selfless person, someone whom everyone in the capital admired.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, and left with Peach Blossom without saying a word. The hedonistic young master lied on the ground and cursed continuously, but Yun Ruoleng pretended to have heard and heard about it.


    Yun Ruoleng''s actions made the patrol leader feel a little awkward. He gave the silkpants a lot of looks, but they all ignored him, so in the end, he just waved their hands and had them bring him away.


    What Yun Ruoleng did not know was that just after she left, two people walked out from an alley at the side. One of them was a woman who wore a veil over her face, while the other was a woman who had appeared.


    "Did you see that? To deal with a single person, you don''t even need to do it yourself. " The veiled lady spoke to the people behind her with a dark smile.


    Behind him, the lady also laughed, it was true, now that Yun Ruoleng had offended the Military Affairs Minister, no matter how powerful the Regent was, he would probably be separated from him!


    Yun Ruoleng made a ruckus on the street, and very quickly, Jun Qingshang found out about the incident. The Regent¡¯s Mansion which had caused so much trouble that not even chickens and dogs could see anything instantly quietened down, and in addition, it was unusually quiet.


    "My King, my King ¡­" An Ying stood three meters away from Jun Qingshang with a stack of memorials, it was unknown whether he should advance or retreat.


    Jun Qingshang retracted his gaze, and the beautiful eyes sharply glanced at the imperial reports in his hands. Go and call for the Military High Scholar to come here for This King. "

 C258

    "Yes ¡­" "Yes." An Ying looked at Jun Qingshang with some hesitation. Seeing that he did not have any intentions to change his mind, he could only promise reluctantly to leave. At this moment, Jun Qingshang''s heart was burning with anger. If he did not find someone to vent his anger on, then it would probably be hard for the entire Duke Palaces.


    Thinking about it here, An Ying sped up his footsteps. He had to find the Military Department''s President as soon as possible, otherwise, these secret guards would be the first targets for the Prince to vent his anger on.


    When Yun Ruoleng returned to the Duke Palace, it was already close to the evening, and the Duke Palaces were completely silent. What made Yun Ruoleng suspicious was that the entire Duke Palaces seemed to have been shrouded in a storm, and people couldn''t help but shiver.


    "Young, young miss, will the prince ¡­" Tao Hong leaned her head close to Yun Ruoleng and made a throat slitting motion towards her.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, then he glared at her and said, "If you keep spouting nonsense, I''ll throw you into the lake to feed the fishes!"


    Peach Blossom stuck out her tongue. She clearly didn''t care about Yun Ruoleng''s threat, but the fear and unease in her heart did not diminish in the slightest. had already known about the two coming back from the main door, but he didn''t go to pick her up. Instead, he sat on his Water Spirit Pavilion waiting for someone to walk into his trap.


    When Yun Ruoleng entered the Water Spirit Pavilion today, he discovered that there were no lights inside, although the lamps in the corridor outside were still lit, there was no one guarding the surroundings, this seemed to be normal.


    Yun Ruoleng took a big step towards his own room, and while walking, he said to Peach Blossom who was behind him: "Prince may not be home tonight, so don''t tell anyone else about us going out, in case everyone else gets punished."


    Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng strangely, then nodded her head.


    Although he knew it wasn''t good to hide it, this matter couldn''t be concealed for too long!


    Yun Ruoleng did not care about Peach Blossom''s thoughts as he directly entered the room. Using the light from the corridor, he found a fire piston on the candlestick and lit the candle. Just as he was about to turn around and talk to Peach Blossom, he saw a black shadow approaching him.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t have time to think as he directly attacked the black shadow behind him.


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s punch could have landed completely on her body, but she didn''t expect that her opponent was very sharp as well, and easily dodged her attack.


    It was only then that Yun Ruoleng realized who he was hitting, and took back his Embroidered Fist in embarrassment.


    "Where did he go?" How could Jun Qingshang let go of the prey he had brought to his doorstep? He pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace with force from his hand.


    Yun Ruoleng stuttered as he talked about a lot of things. When Jun Qingshang heard this, his expression became even uglier, especially after hearing her talk about a lot of things and forgetting about the most important things. His expression became even uglier, and he used one hand to grip Yun Ruoleng''s chin: "Is that all?"


    "Ugh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s pupils contracted. Other than that, she had finished telling him everything else!


    Did he already know?


    Yun Ruoleng probed: "Did you find trouble with the Military Department''s Minister?"


    "What do you think?" Jun Qingshang once again threw the topic of conversation to Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng was also very helpless as he looked at Jun Qingshang with grievance.


    Previously, when Jun Qingshang saw her in such a state, his heart ached so much that he would not ask anymore, but this time, Jun Qingshang seemed to be determined to get her to explain everything to him.


    "Alright, that is ¡­" In the end, Yun Ruoleng had no other choice but to be honest and open-minded.


    Jun Qingshang was not someone to be trifled with. After Yun Ruoleng finished giving out the instructions, the punitive kiss had already densely fallen on her body. Tonight, no matter how much Yun Ruoleng begged for mercy, Jun Qingshang did not have the slightest bit of mercy.


    The red silk tent was warm, the night was cloudy, and she was extremely shy.


    The next day, Jun Qingshang who had eaten his fill woke up very early. Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s still sleeping face, the expression on his face softened by a lot as he lightly kissed her on the forehead.


    Yun Ruoleng reflexively turned his face away, and mumbled in a daze: "Go away, don''t disturb me!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang was both annoyed and amused at the same time. He covered her with the blanket and quietly left her warm bed.


    By the time Yun Ruoleng woke up, it was already a quarter to noon. Last night, she had been tormented quite a bit by Jun Qingshang, even though she was cultivating Shaman Energy and her physique was much better than ordinary people, she was still knocked unconscious by him. Thinking about last night''s "humiliation", Yun Ruoleng''s small face unconsciously flushed red.


    As soon as he got out of bed and saw that there was no longer anything good on his body, Yun Ruoleng could not help but curse, "Damn it all!"


    Peach Blossom who was waiting outside heard the sound from inside and quickly knocked on the door. "Miss, are you up?"


    Yun Ruoleng grabbed the clothes on the bed, which were neatly folded. As he put them on, he said: "Prepare some hot water, I want to take a bath!"


    Peach Blossom was originally meant to be used for washing up. Once she heard that her young miss was going to bathe today, these things naturally wouldn''t be useful. She quickly waved her hand to let the maidservants prepare some new things before quickly entering.


    Peach Blossom came in and looked through the curtain, revealing Yun Ruoleng''s beautiful body. Because of the cold weather, Yun Ruoleng covered himself with a blanket as he tore off his coat that was thrown under the bed.


    The corners of Peach Blossom''s mouth were suffused with a smile as she walked over to the bed and handed over a cherry blossom fox skin cloak.


    And in that instant, Peach Red saw the cyan and purple kiss wound all over Yun Ruoleng''s body, and her round little face instantly flushed red.


    He still remembered the first time he kissed her, Peach Blossom only felt that she was cute and silly, thinking that her young miss had been beaten up by the Duke and had even gone to find Jun Qingshang to reason with him.


    Peach Blossom still vividly remembers the black dragon.


    "Peach Blossom?" Yun Ruoleng saw Peach Blossom standing in front of the bed with her head down. She was lost in thought, and couldn''t help but frown.


    Peach Blossom reacted and quickly opened up a path. Yun Ruoleng then got off the bed, with the cape covering her entire body, he did not reveal any trace of being doted on.


    The servant that was preparing the hot water was extremely fast, just as Yun Ruoleng got off the bed, the servants had already prepared the hot water.


    After taking a bath and changing his clothes, Yun Ruoleng sat under the copper mirror. Looking at the blue kiss mark on her neck, she couldn''t help but frown.


    Jun Qingshang''s madness last night was not only to punish himself for running around yesterday, but more accurately speaking, it was to declare his sovereignty.


    Looking at the cyan and purple color on his neck, Yun Ruoleng sighed helplessly.


    The Lord Regent, who had worked diligently all night, stood in the great hall in the morning court, a smile on his face that could not be ignored. That smile made everyone''s hair stand on end.


    Compared to this, the main character of today''s military department''s president, Lord Wang, was not easy to deal with.


    Because his son was sent to jail for molesting a civilian girl, he was impeached by a group of people before he could pull his son out of prison.


    The Board of War''s Minister was not as honest as the Board of Justice''s Minister. This impeachment had revealed a lot of information.


    At this moment, not only him, but the entire clan was facing a huge crisis.

 C259

    The little Emperor frowned slightly and his gaze fell on the Minister of War. It seemed as if he would devour him in the next moment.


    "Wang Zhiyong, what else do you want to say?" Although Jun Rushi was small, the aura around him was not small at all, and the entire hall was filled with the pressure of an emperor.


    Jun Qingshang''s eyes lightly glanced at Wang Zhiyong, who was kneeling in the middle of the hall. The beautiful eyes s released a killing intent, "Wang Zhiyong, as the minister of war, is actually implicated with a traitor of the imperial government. This king will take off the black veil on your head by the contribution you have made to the revelation of the heavens! What''s the point? "


    "Write ''Your Majesty''s favor of not killing the prince''." Wang Zhiyong wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead, his entire being was like a fish out of water. After hearing Jun Qingshang''s final decision on him, he collapsed onto the ground, as if he had lost his soul.


    When Jun Qingshang returned from the palace, it was already close to noon. When he returned, he had just finished dressing up. The Yun Ruoleng today was especially charming. She was dressed in a pink top with a short fox skin draped over her snow-white skin, contrasting with her small face, making her look even more delicate and tender.


    Jun Qingshang walked up and pulled her into his embrace, then placed the head, which was worth ten thousand gold, onto Yun Que''s face. With a charming smile, he asked, "Is Ruo Er standing here waiting for me?"


    Yun Ruoleng tilted her head slightly, her lips pressing right onto Jun Qingshang''s face. Her elegant brows knitted slightly, and she quickly pulled away from him. "I just want to ask you, what did you do to the Military Department''s President?"


    Jun Qingshang''s face darkened, and the Spirit Qi around his body became slightly cold: "Dismissing official position."


    Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief, looked at his face which had suddenly changed, and quickly planted a kiss on his lips: "Although Wang Zhiyong''s son teased me in the streets, he did not get any benefits. At most, his words were a little dirty, so his punishment would not kill him. "If your son doesn''t teach his father well, you can just teach him a little, and he won''t die for the crime."


    Jun Qingshang''s face changed, after hearing his words, his expression became much more serious: "The reason why I removed him from his position is because he was once an accomplice of Jun Qingfeng!"


    Yun Ruoleng was slightly surprised for a moment, but he understood in his heart that this matter was only an excuse for him, and was only for the sake of getting out to anyone that could threaten the little Emperor. The monkeys dispersed after the tree fell. Jun Qingfeng had already been locked in the Royal Tomb for two months, and there were still quite a few remaining, some that truly submitted to him, some that hid themselves in the imperial hall, and only wanted to find a chance to leave. This must be the kind of person this military president was!


    Jun Qingfeng removed her head from Yun Ruoleng''s shoulder and pulled Yun Ruoleng towards her with both hands. A pair of hands with a thin cocoon around them gently caressed her delicate face, "You''ve already walked for ten days, and you''re still angry?"


    Yun Ruoleng had been angered long ago, it was just that sometimes the two of them needed to have some fun, that''s why it happened yesterday. Of course Yun Ruoleng would not admit it. With a straight face, he slapped the hand that was caressing her face: "Of course I''m angry!"


    "Don''t be angry, it will not be good if you get angry." Jun Qingshang was not angry because Yun Ruoleng had opened his hands, but instead smiled: "I have gained quite a bit from this trip, does Ruo Er want to see the thing this duke brought back?"


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang in confusion. Was there something wrong with his words?


    Jun Qingshang held onto her soft little hand, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised. Yun Ruoleng had a bad feeling about this. Jun Qingshang''s smile was very bewitching. Although Yun Ruoleng was uneasy, he did not ask too much. How could Jun Qingshang possibly miss such a good opportunity so easily? With a gentle smile, he said, "After seeing it, you are not allowed to get angry because you haven''t succeeded yet!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression slightly changed, her rosy lips slightly opened, and she slowly spat out two words: "Sly!"


    "Same here!" When Jun Qingshang heard Yun Ruoleng''s evaluation of him, the smile on his face became even more obvious, and he held Yun Ruoleng''s slender shoulders with one hand.


    Yun Ruoleng let out a cold snort, as happiness blossomed in his heart.


    This time, Jun Qingshang returned with a lot of things, and today, he brought some things into the palace, leaving two big boxes behind for Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang walked into Shang Mo Pavilion''s study room shoulder to shoulder. Yun Ruoleng''s eyes shone upon seeing the two large boxes placed in the study room. After coming out of Jun Qingshang''s embrace, he walked to the side of the box and opened it. Inside were a few beads that glowed with a ghostly light, as well as a variety of tools.


    Yun Ruoleng randomly picked one up to observe and discovered that this thing was something from the old days. With one look, one could tell that it was worth a lot! Yun Ruoleng then opened a box at the side. Inside was a large flower vase with 3 levels of sculptures. There was a certain distance between each level, and the 3rd level was completely intact. Exquisite workmanship was also a valuable item.


    Yun Ruoleng returned the things back into the box, her face had a light smile, "The Prince must have spent a lot of manpower and resources to get such a good item."


    Jun Qingshang gently rubbed her hair, "The little girl is still so smart."


    Is this called being smart? Yun Ruoleng was speechless. One or two of these things were not a big deal, but right now it was just a box.


    The hand that Jun Qingshang used to touch Yun Ruoleng''s head exerted a bit of force, and turned into a light pat.


    Yun Ruoleng covered his head and glared at Jun Qingshang: "What are you doing!"


    Jun Qingshang glanced at Yun Ruoleng. This girl was doing her best right now, and he was not an idiot so he naturally knew this clearly. How could he let her face the truth if he did not pat her?


    Jun Qingshang laughed: "These things were bought from the auction. Some of these things were picked up by a few grave robbers. "


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his head as a bright light flashed through his mind, "I''m afraid there are more than a few of them! So many things do not originate from the same year, so it''s definitely not simple. "


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, and suddenly felt that Yun Ruoleng''s brain was spinning very quickly, his ability to do one to three was truly powerful.


    But in the next second, Yun Ruoleng''s words changed his mind.


    "Grave robbers are hateful, they won''t even let go of the things of the dead, but you are even more hateful than them! This is called robbing homes under the banner of the government! "


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s head was filled with black lines, after that, he saw Yun Ruoleng close the box with disdain, and asked suspiciously: "These are all antiques, don''t you always like these things?"


    "Can it be the same?" Yun Ruoleng said with a stern face, "The origins of these things are unknown! If it was released, forget about your Regent¡¯s Mansion, even the Imperial Palace would easily be targeted! Oh, what you brought back was not some treasure, but a ticking time bomb! "


    Hm? Although Jun Qingshang understood the words of the first half of Yun Ruoleng''s sentence, what kind of thing was that "ticking time bomb" in the second half?

 C260

    Yun Ruoleng also realized that he had spoken the wrong words and laughed awkwardly. Jun Qingshang definitely would not let Yun Ruoleng go like this, and directly asked about the doubts in his heart.


    "That... "That ¡­" Yun Ruoleng stammered as he did not know how to explain.


    Jun Qingshang did not make things difficult for her. He rubbed her head.


    Yun Ruoleng was truly at a loss in her heart. In her heart, there was a hurdle that she had never been able to overcome, and it was precisely because of this hurdle that caused her to still be unable to be frank with him.


    Jun Qingshang held her hand and slowly walked out of the study. "I always like to stay in the Water Spirit Pavilion, Shang Mo Pavilion is also not bad. Do you want to stay for a few days and try it out?"


    Yun Ruoleng knew the meaning behind Jun Qingshang''s words, but she did not want to embarrass herself, so she did not reject it and smiled: "Alright!"


    Actually, she really wanted to stay in Shang Mo Pavilion for a while, after all, this had always been his residence. Only after she had come to the Duke Palace did she change her Water Spirit Pavilion, and she also wanted to see what his residence looked like.


    Yun Ruoleng''s stay at Shang Mo Pavilion was not a big deal, he only needed to come, and did not need to worry about anything else. Furthermore, there were really a lot of empty rooms in the Duke Palace, so Yun Ruoleng didn''t dare to say where he wanted to stay. Thus, Yun Ruoleng quietly stayed in Shang Mo Pavilion.


    It was somewhat similar to his own sleeping hall in Water Spirit Pavilion. The only difference was that the houses in Water Spirit Pavilion were all facing north, while Shang Mo Pavilion was facing south. The two courtyards'' windows were facing each other. Only now did Yun Ruoleng realize that it wasn''t just the windows facing each other, but the entire courtyard. Through Shang Mo Pavilion''s window, they could see Water Spirit Pavilion''s movements. Although they could not hear the sounds coming from the courtyard, they could still see what the people there were doing.


    Yun Ruoleng felt that Jun Qingshang was really scheming, she must have prepared this kind of situation from the beginning. That was to say, all of this was controlled by Jun Qingshang from the very beginning.


    No wonder he always felt like he was living under someone else''s gaze.


    Jun Qingshang stood behind Yun Ruoleng and a cape was gently draped over her slender shoulders: "You''ve stood here for so long, you should get some rest first!"


    Yun Ruoleng glared at him unhappily. Jun Qingshang was confused by her stare, but she did not forget to tell Yun Ruoleng to leave. After all, it was not good to stay in this place with the cold wind blowing on your body for a long time.


    "The Water Spirit Pavilion is rich in spirit energy?" Leaning into Jun Qingshang''s embrace, Yun Ruoleng looked up with a smile that was not a smile, "Your Highness, you sure have meticulous thoughts!"


    Jun Qingshang was puzzled at first, but after looking at the Water Spirit Pavilion outside, his brows rose: "Although I have a goal, I am not bad."


    "Humph!" Yun Ruoleng snorted. Actually that wasn''t important anymore, since he was already Yun Ruoleng''s man, and he treated him so well, would he still care about these "methods"?


    In the palace of Yue Ling, Huang Tu stood on top of a fake mountain in the imperial garden and allowed the wind to blow against him. Behind him, Ah Zheng was walking away, constantly on guard as he looked around.


    Ah Zheng''s gaze swept the area. He would rather look at the painting on the table in the pavilion. It was a picture that he had just made, a picture of a woman hugging a lotus. Although he had never seen that woman before, she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life.


    He cared so much about the painting because this was the first time he had done a portrait of a woman other than the princess.


    "Are you curious?" Phoenix Diagram slowly turned around just in time to see A''Zheng''s puzzled expression. Phoenix Diagram did not hide anything and chuckled: "A woman that cannot be begged, but she is indeed the best medicine to guide."


    A Zheng''s expression changed slightly. "Master, if she''s still around, she definitely doesn''t want to see you like this."


    "Too bad she''s gone." A hint of sorrow appeared on Phoenix Diagram''s face, but it quickly disappeared. In exchange, he revealed a gloomy and cold face: "Rest assured, I will save her."


    A Zheng lowered his head and did not frown. Actually, he felt that his master''s understanding was wrong, but seeing that he had already treated this matter as his only belief, he did not dare to say more. After all, she was her reverse scale.


    In the Heavenly Imperial Palace, half a month had passed since the little Emperor received the news, and he couldn''t help but knit his brows together. In his eyes, Feng Tu was an extremely ambitious person, although he had always been a playboy, but it was precisely this type of behavior that had become a weapon to the final Emperor.


    "royal uncle, the person known as Phoenix Diagram has always been a mystery to others. Even though his foundation for ascending the throne was not stable, to be able to sit in that position under the pressure of the Yue Ling and the phoenix, this person is definitely not as simple as he looks."


    "King Xian ascended to the throne, named Jian An?" The hand that Jun Qingshang was holding the imperial report trembled, and his expression became serious: "Emperor Jianan is a good name, and also a name that you want to dominate. "He really is an ignorant fellow!"


    "royal uncle, send a number to suppress him!" The little Emperor was extremely unconvinced when he heard this.


    Jun Qingshang rolled his eyes at him in annoyance, "Jun Rushi, don''t forget that if you want to govern, you must be sixteen years old. Titles only exist at that time. "


    "I''m just angry!" As for the threats from other countries, the little emperor naturally didn''t want to be outclassed by others.


    Jun Qingshang just looked at him quietly, but this time he did not say anything.


    The matter of Yue Ling exchange with the emperor quickly spread like wildfire throughout the entire capital. Yun Ruoleng who was in the teahouse listening to a book was also stunned, the tea house was talking about the piece of news. Although it had already been half a month, Yun Ruoleng still felt that it was news, after all, the two countries were very far apart.


    "Miss, this idle king is always so shameless. He really is the emperor!" Peach Blossom said in disbelief.


    Yun Ruoleng reached out and stuffed an orange on the table into her peachy mouth, stopping her from speaking any further, "You''re not allowed to speak nonsense outside!"


    Although Peach Blossom could not accept it, she did not dare refute her young miss''s orders. She stuck out her tongue at Yun Ruoleng and continued to listen to the story with her head held high.


    After the end of a story, Yun Ruoleng brought Peach Blossom back to the Regent¡¯s Mansion. Just as she entered the Palace, she heard that Yun Yi and Luo Yifan had been waiting for her there for a long time.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t change his peach-red clothes and instead, excitedly hurried towards the main hall. Yun Yi, who was still dressed in his snow-white robe, and the Young Master Luo Yifan, who was still dressed in his warm jade like clothes, were sitting in the living room.


    Dressed in a light purple embroidered cotton jacket and a flowing immortal dress that reached her ankles, Yun Ruoleng rushed into the hall like a butterfly. "Brother Yi is finally back, Mrs. Luo has been muttering all day, you can''t leave this time, otherwise she would blame me for coming back."

 C261

    "Nope. Nope." Yun Yi was a lot more reserved than when he first came back, his pale white face carried a slight smile. As he said this, he took out a small embroidered box with a palm: "This is something I bought at Yue Ling, do you like it?"


    Yun Ruo Leng hastily moved her head over, the little girl''s appearance was extremely adorable. He opened the box, revealing a ruby bracelet inside. This bracelet was extremely exquisite, not a single bead was shiny and it revealed a different item. Yun Ruo Leng stretched out her small hand to retrieve the bracelet from the box. When she saw the blood-dripping bracelet, she couldn''t help but exclaim, "So beautiful!


    "This was exchanged for a piece of good agar jade with a monk. I don''t know what the use of this bracelet is." A doting smile hung on the corner of Yun Yi''s lips. Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s excited expression while holding a string of hands, he was also very happy.


    Luo Yifan frowned. He didn''t look too good when he saw the bracelet. He didn''t know why, but he always felt that there was something fishy about the monk. Thus, Luo Yifan told her the story of how he obtained this bracelet.


    "If I''m not wrong, this bracelet should not be a Buddhist item! On the contrary, it might bring about a fatal disaster! " Luo Yifan''s words made Yun Yi a little unhappy.


    Without waiting for Yun Yi to speak, Yun Ruoleng had already placed the bracelet into the embroidered box: "There aren''t that many coincidences in this world, to think that he would actually open his mouth to trade with you first, then there are only two possibilities. First, he needs the piece of jade, and secondly, he wants to throw out the thing in his hand. The other party is a monk, so the first reason would probably not be valid. In that case, there is only the second reason. "


    This time, both Yun Ruoleng and Luo Yifan''s thoughts coincided. This made Yun Yi, who was originally relaxed, tense up: "Then what do we do?"


    Yun Ruoleng received the bracelet from him and fixed her gaze on him, "It''s fine, I have my ways."


    Yun Ruoleng placed the bracelet back into his sleeves, but Yun Yi was still worried. He did not think too much into it in the beginning, but now, after thinking about it, he realized that he had committed an unforgivable mistake. It was impossible for Yun Yi to take back the bracelet. Would it be so easy to take back the thing in Yun Ruoleng''s hands?


    After he put away the bracelet, only then did Yun Ruoleng remember what he had heard today. He hurriedly discussed with the two of them.


    Luo Yifan looked hesitantly at Yun Yi, who did not have much hesitation on his face. He nodded: "It seems like he is prepared to start a war with Heaven''s Initiation."


    Yue Ling''s power was similar to the Heavenly Enlightenment''s, so starting a war was unavoidable. However, Yun Ruo''s cold face changed slightly. Not long after Phoenix City ascended the throne, he actually wanted to start a war. Isn''t this a little too hasty?


    "There is no need to doubt the actions of the Phoenix Diagram." Just as Yun Ruoleng was thinking about this, a man in a purple robe walked in. Yun Ruoleng turned and welcomed him with a gentle smile.


    Jun Qingshang held Yun Ruoleng''s small waist with one hand and his icy expression eased a little. He nodded towards Yun Yi and Luo Yifan, "I have already discussed this with the Emperor, once the new year begins, we will have to train our troops, and increase our defense at the border. At that time, I will have to trouble Yifan."


    "Why should we bother?" Luo Yifan nodded. As the direct disciple of the former Military Advisor, he naturally would not shirk his duties.


    Yun Ruoleng was shocked. Although her sixth sense was not strong, her theory had never been wrong. This time, her deduction was the same. Isn''t this a bit too fast?


    Jun Qingshang hugged Yun Ruoleng with one hand and raised the cup of tea given to him by the servant to his lips, and took a light sip: "Actually this is all within expectations, you do not need to worry."


    Yun Ruoleng raised her small face that was the size of a palm and smiled bitterly: "I know, but the war between the two nations is not something that can be done overnight. Since they are already planning for it, shouldn''t we prepare as well?"


    After speaking about this, Jun Qingshang nodded his head in agreement. Compared to the internal strife within the Heaven Awakening, the Yue Ling was much better, within the whole royal family, only the Phoenix Diagram was intact, the other two ¡­ He was not his match at all, and Heaven''s Initiation looked to be at peace with the situation inside, but the morale was still unstable. The people who supported Jun Qingfeng in the past couldn''t help but feel a little estranged in their hearts.


    After sending off Yun Yi and Luo Yifan, Jun Qingshang carried Yun Ruoleng back to Shang Mo Pavilion. Shang Mo Pavilion was even warmer than Water Spirit Pavilion, and for some reason, ever since Yun Ruoleng came here, the plants there had grown lush and flourishing.


    "You left your residence today?" Jun Qingshang rubbed her head and chuckled: "Where did you go?"


    "The teahouse." Yun Ruoleng did not hide anything and recounted the contents of today''s lecture.


    Jun Qingshang unconsciously frowned, "It''s spread through all the streets and alleys?"


    "That should be the case." Yun Ruoleng nodded in puzzlement: "Why are you looking at me like that?"


    "Does Ruo Er not know that this is very strange?" Jun Qingshang''s hand that was placed on her waist unconsciously tightened: "We only found out about the Yue Ling exchanging for the Overlord this morning, and when you left the house, everyone and everyone outside had heard about it, do you think there''s anything strange about this?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows twitched, he suddenly thought of something and laughed: "Maybe the messenger was delayed, or maybe something really happened on the way."


    The expression in Jun Qingshang''s eyes when he looked at Yun Ruoleng became a little solemn. Under this kind of gaze, Yun Ruoleng was at a loss of what to do.


    "You''re not wrong, you''re missing a place." A cold look flashed past Jun Qingshang''s eyes, if it was him, this battle would have happened sooner.


    "Impossible!" Yun Ruoleng shook his head in surprise: "This kind of thing does not need to be covered up, what he does has no meaning to himself!"


    Jun Qingshang did not say anything, her gaze quietly staring at Yun Ruoleng''s pink face. Yun Ruoleng was completely uncomfortable under his gaze, she glared at him unhappily: "Speak!"


    "What else does This King need to say after what you''ve said?" Jun Qingshang lightly rubbed Yun Ruoleng''s hair and said with a doting smile, "This king is thinking about how to pass this year! Does Ruo Er have a good idea? "


    New Year? Yun Ruoleng suddenly thought back to the twenty-first century, and at that time, the smell of the year became fainter and fainter, as if most of them went on holiday during the new year. The big city was almost empty, while the small mountain paths were filled with cars.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Yun Ruoleng with suspicion. Coincidentally, when she regained her senses, her black eyes met with his. It was already too late for her to dodge.


    "Is there a lion dance during the new year?" In order to conceal the smile from his face, Yun Ruoleng quickly asked, "I was thinking just now, wouldn''t it be lively if I get a lion dancing group this year?"

 C262

    "The Lion Dance is only a year old?" Jun Qingshang unhappily poked her on the forehead: "Dance and singing are alright. After all, the people raised here in the Palace are precisely prepared for this kind of time."


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression changed upon hearing the name of the singer. If the Yi Hong Courtyard was a brothel, then the female dancers in the manor were similar to the other brothel''s, only that they were raised in an official''s eunuch''s house.


    Jun Qingshang didn''t seem to notice Yun Ruoleng''s change in expression, and his brows slightly rose: "I didn''t really like it in the past, since you like the liveliness, get someone to bring them back!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression softened a little, and stared gloomily at Jun Qingshang: "It''s best if you don''t have any other intentions, or else ¡­"


    "Otherwise what?" Jun Qingshang stepped down, pressing Yun Ruoleng onto the soft couch, making him unable to move.


    Yun Ruoleng was not joking around with him. His body being confined did not affect her from speaking. He snorted coldly, "If you dare to do something that lets me down, I will make it so that you will never be able to meet a woman for the rest of your life! If you don''t believe me, you can give it a try. "


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang frowned slightly, and subconsciously looked down at that place, smiling bitterly: "Girl, you''re really ruthless!"


    Jun Qingshang was very clear that Yun Ruoleng had always been true to her words. She was speaking the truth without a doubt, but he had only given her a chance to talk. Jun Qingshang lowered his head and kissed her forehead: "I won''t let you down."


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng nod his head in satisfaction, his mood becoming a little better: "Don''t bring those female singers back, they deserve to panic."


    Jun Qingshang chuckled, he did not rush to answer her, but smiled and said: "I am a qualified merchant and also a Regent. I would not do anything without benefits."


    I don''t want to make a loss either!" Yun Ruo stretched out her arm, hooked it around Jun Qingsheng''s neck and said with a smile that wasn''t a smile, "This wangfei has never made a loss in business. Since Your Highness has a business deal, let''s talk about it properly.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes became even colder, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and his forehead pressed against Yun Ruoleng''s forehead: "Girl, how do you want to talk?"


    Yun Ruoleng did not speak, he pushed Jun Qingshang away and said, "If it''s a business deal, then it''s a good one, let''s talk it out!"


    Jun Qingshang was helpless, is this girl for real?!


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the man on her body with a deadpan expression, "Get down!"


    Jun Qingshang didn''t know whether to laugh or cry. He reached out and patted Yun Ruoleng''s head: "Ruo Er is more serious, you''re not cute at all!"


    Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly and did not continue speaking. He was truly happy in his heart, in life, to be able to make Jun Qingshang suffer! How could she not be happy?


    After the two of them played around for a while, Jun Qingshang was called to the study room. Yun Ruoleng sat in her room and read a book with an indifferent expression.


    It was unknown if it was because he saw something interesting, but the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth suddenly raised up. Her red eyes stared straight at Yun Ruoleng, as though saying, "Miss, tell me, what did you see?"


    did not even bother to look at Peach Blossom once, his gaze landed on the book in his hands, time ticked by minute by minute, Jun Qingshang was still reading when he finished handling the matter. At dinner time, Jun Qingshang wanted to call her over to eat, but seeing that she was looking at it with such concentration, he could not bear to disturb her.


    Yun Ruoleng''s constantly changing brows caught Jun Qingshang''s attention. Jun Qingshang, who was about to leave, returned to her side and sat down. His gaze fell on the book in her hands and his eyes immediately lit up: "Ruo Er, where did you get this book from?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s attention was finally interrupted: "I found them in the Imperial Palace. Most of the things written here are matters of the common people, but it''s very interesting."


    "This book is father''s most beloved book. He wanted to hide his entire life in the martial arts world, but he failed to do so at the end of his life. After father passed away, he did not see it. Where did you find it?"


    "I found it in a small box on the side table." Yun Ruoleng looked at the book doubtfully: "The box had always been placed on the dressing table, and it was not locked, so I took it and read it."


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang was extremely speechless when he heard Yun Ruoleng''s words. He had been looking for this book for a few years already, but he didn''t want to find it in such an inconspicuous place.


    Yun Ruoleng unwillingly glanced at the book in his hand, and in the end, decided to pass the book to Jun Qingshang. "This book is so important to you, I''ll return it to you!"


    Jun Qingshang was startled, then chuckled: "Let me read it! After all, my Ruo Er likes it that much too. "


    Yun Ruoleng smiled, "Then I won''t be polite!"


    Seeing her mischievous look, the corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly. Her Ruo Er was always so cute, but why did the unease in his heart become even more obvious?


    Jun Qingshang couldn''t explain why he had such an uneasy feeling. Right now, as the Regent, he had a lot of things to deal with.


    The New Year''s Eve meals of officials above the second rank of the Heavenly Revelation Stage were all eaten in the Imperial Palace, and this year was no exception. It was early in the morning, and after Yun Ruoleng and the Empress Dowager finished dressing, they began to prepare gifts for the various palaces. Fortunately, the palace had a empress dowager and two imperial concubines.


    Yun Ruoleng stood at the door and took a deep breath. She said that it was not a lot, but the few boxes that Uncle Pu prepared left her dumbstruck. Yun Ruoleng pointed to the largest box, his fingers trembling. "This is for Mother?"


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang nodded his head, as though he had thought of something, and said slowly: "These are all paintings from Mo Zhan."


    "Jun... Forget it! " Yun Ruoleng really wanted to curse him, but thinking that the empress dowager was very good to him, it was just a few paintings, so he just took it! Yun Ruoleng''s gaze landed on the two slightly smaller chests at the side. "What were those two filled with?"


    "Something like an antique, give it to the two grand concubines." Compared to the antiques, his own painting did not seem to be worth much? Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang in puzzlement.


    Jun Qingshang gave a shallow smile, "Aren''t we giving them things that they like best?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, she approved of his words, but at least he did not need to send her a pile of bones! Yun Ruoleng kept all the shock in his heart and turned to pat Jun Qingshang on the shoulder. "It''s getting late, let''s go!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s ability to accept things was strong, so she was naturally willing to part with such a small amount of things. After all, with such a large palace, without giving things to people, it wouldn''t be nice to tell others where the position of the Regent was located. If one took less things, others would say more, but if one took more, they would say more.

 C263

    Jun Qingshang raised his head to look at the weather, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, he touched her head and turned to look at Peach Blossom: "Bring me the conical bamboo hat."


    Peach Red responded and followed along, holding onto a pink muslin bamboo hat. It fit very well with Yun Ruoleng''s clothes today. Jun Qingshang accepted the bamboo hat and carefully helped her put it on, then pulled her small hand and walked out.


    Peach Blossom and An Ying walked side by side. After An Xiang was killed, she volunteered to enter the palace. Although she still felt a bit of lingering fear in her heart, for the safety of her young miss, she would never leave her side.


    Yun Ruoleng actually disapproved of Peach Blossom following them, but she had said with all her heart that there was one more person with more power than Jun Qingshang, and convinced him to follow her.


    If Peach Blossom and Jun Qingshang were to join hands, Yun Ruoleng would only be able to compromise! Although she was still a little afraid, compared to those unknown maidservants in the palace, Peach Blossom was better off following them. After Yun Ruoleng compromised, he continued to console himself. He didn''t know if it was because self-consolation was very useful, but his mood improved very quickly.


    The banquet was like a family banquet. The people who came were officials of the second rank and above, as well as the two grand concubines who had not come out from the palace. Although the number of people at the banquet was not as many as before, they were mostly ministers from the humerus and imperial relatives. After Yun Ruoleng entered the palace, he directly went to the Tzu Ning Palace. There were endless sounds of laughter within the Palace. When Yun Ruoleng entered, someone said, "Princess Hua-Yang is becoming more and more beautiful." There was a commotion.


    Yun Ruoleng only smiled and did not say a word. Peach Blossom who followed behind didn''t reply, but went forward to greet the empress dowager.


    "If the little girl doesn''t come to the palace for some days, I would miss her so much!" The empress dowager waved her hand towards Yun Ruoleng. "Come over, let This Dowager have a good look."


    "Ruo Er also wants mother, it''s just that it has been closed for the past few years, Ruo Er might be able to prepare some things." With Peach Blossom''s support, Yun Ruoleng walked up the steps and stood next to the empress dowager, "Ruo Er and the prince discussed for a long time, and gave empress dowager many things. After thinking about it, empress still liked Ruo Er''s paintings more, so this time when they entered the palace, Ruo Er brought a lot of them."


    Hearing that, the empress dowager''s eyes immediately lit up, and she pulled Yun Ruoleng''s hand as she said with a smile, "You''re still the most considerate girl."


    Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly, "This was taught to her by the King. Ruo Er had originally wanted to prepare clothes for her mother, but the Prince said that it would be better to give her those than to give her a painting.


    Yun Ruoleng was naturally happy that the empress dowager would like it, but at the same time, she didn''t dare to take credit for it. These things were all prepared by Jun Qingshang in the first place, she wouldn''t forget her husband even if she got lucky.


    The empress dowager smiled benevolently and nodded. "He''s a good child."


    "Princess Hua-Yang is smart and astute. She''s always thinking for her husband." These words sounded sour, Yun Ruoleng''s gaze followed the voice and saw Huang Wanxue provoking him.


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at her, and did not respond. When the empress dowager heard this, she was somewhat dissatisfied. Her gaze turned sharp. "If you had her, that''d be great!"


    "My daughter-in-law isn''t as smart as my imperial sister-in-law. The gifts she gives are all vulgar and crude. The empress won''t mind. My daughter-in-law isn''t happy yet, so how would she dare to seek meritorious service for His Highness?"


    These words were ¡­ Yun Ruoleng could not help but laugh, this Huang Wanxue was truly powerful. Was it really a tiger that didn''t show off its might, treating her as a Hello? Kitty.


    "Your highness, it''s all because of you that I suggested this to you. I wouldn''t dare to invite you to do this, so you should let your mother know that your son never forgot about her. I''m sure the ninth princess doesn''t even understand this, right?" Yun Ruoleng''s straightforward words had cut straight to the point.


    Huang Wanxue held the handkerchief tightly in his hand, and laughed awkwardly: "Royal sister-in-law''s words are reasonable, I and the Prince were careless."


    "Enough!" "It''s the new year, what kind of etiquette is this!" The empress dowager was already very dissatisfied with Huang Wanxue, she berated him sternly, "You should also take care of yourself, stop spouting nonsense here!"


    "My daughter-in-law knows she''s wrong." The previously aggressive Huang Wanxue instantly became discouraged, and after saying this, he did not forget to glare at Yun Ruoleng.


    Would Yun Ruoleng just casually get people to stare at him? It was obvious that he didn''t know, but Yun Ruoleng didn''t say much, and only smiled faintly. Her glare was like hitting cotton, neither painful nor itchy.


    Huang Wanxue retracted his gaze. Even though he was very angry, he understood that this was not the time for him to be angry.


    The empress dowager''s good mood was ruined as she waved her hand. "Go to the imperial gardens! This Dowager is a bit tired. "


    Although she said she was tired, everyone could see that she was angry. Seeing her holding Yun Ruoleng''s hand, she stood up and walked out, while whispering to Yun Ruoleng: "Little girl, I got a lot of good stuff, you can pick whatever you want later."


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth rose slightly, "Thank you, mother."


    "You are being too polite, why are you being so polite with This Dowager?" The empress dowager patted Yun Ruoleng''s hands as the corners of her lips curled up slightly. The empress dowager who was almost fifty years old had some wrinkles on her face, but it did not affect her original complexion in the slightest.


    "A daughter-in-law is not courteous." Yun Ruoleng paused, and then laughed bitterly: "You are so good to your daughter-in-law. Your daughter-in-law is afraid that your sister-in-law will be unhappy, after all, she is your daughter-in-law too!"


    "Humph!" It was fine if they did not mention Huang Wanxue, but when they mentioned her, the empress dowager''s expression instantly changed. "She was sent by the Yue Ling, and was called a peacemaker. He was just a spy placed on the surface. "It''s been hard on you, Ninth Prince."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, what was going on? It was impossible for Huang Wanxue to leave his hometown in Heaven''s Enlightenment, it was just that he was branded like this by the empress dowager ¡­ Yun Ruoleng silently sighed in his heart. This empress dowager likes someone but likes them to the bones, if she doesn''t like someone who can degrade her to mud, Huang Wanxue would probably be a little wronged.


    After the empress dowager finished speaking, she saw that Yun Ruoleng had lowered his head in silence.


    "The daughter-in-law is thinking if Huang Wanxue really sent the spy over. If it''s a spy ¡­" Yun Ruoleng stared at the empress dowager with sparkling eyes. "I''m afraid that the Ninth Prince is in danger.


    "Who cares what she does? Just a little girl sent by an enemy kingdom to show her goodwill. " Her Majesty spoke very easily.


    Yun Ruoleng could only smile bitterly. This empress dowager was not stupid, she did not think too deeply into it. Jun Qingshang and the others had really protected her well.


    The two of them were like a mother and daughter, Jun Qingshang and Jun Rushi were like father and son within the Mourning Hall, talking, while other ministers came down to congratulate the two of them.

 C264

    "royal uncle, do you think the Yue Ling is really going to attack us?" Although this matter was no longer a secret, the little emperor still didn''t really believe that the Phoenix Map, who had a good relationship with the royal uncle, would make a move.


    "I will." Jun Qingshang lightly sipped the tea in his hand: "What he needs now is the entire world. This young man has no aspirations, he will find a way to prove himself, and the best way is to take over the rest of the countries in the world."


    "But he is on good terms with you!" Aren''t they like friends? How could he destroy his friendship for the world?


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze darkened slightly as he looked at Jun Rushi with an unspeakably stern gaze. "The relationship between a member of the imperial family and a member of the imperial family is as calm as water.


    Jun Rushi shrunk his neck, as his head was enveloped by Jun Qingshang''s large palm: "You are no longer young, you must understand that as an emperor, you need to be able to not recognize others as your own family, you are cold-blooded and emotionless. Otherwise, you will be suppressed by others because your emotions will affect your decisions. Some decisions will affect your life! "


    Jun Rushi''s gaze turned heavy, he did not know why, but he felt a killing intent from his own royal uncle''s eyes, although the killing intent was not directed at him, but he could sense that someone was about to suffer.


    Today was New Year''s Eve, and after today, what was New Year''s Eve? The feudal lords would return to the capital to offer sacrifices to their ancestors, so much so that New Year''s Eve was bustling with noise and excitement.


    Jun Rushi and Jun Qingshang sat together, and at the beginning, there were even some who dared to show off, but the Regent''s words made those who thought of it tremble uncontrollably.


    Jun Qingshang''s words were, "Everyone, this king and the emperor are extremely welcome to return to the capital for the new year.


    Who is Jun Qingshang? This was a famous war god from heaven!


    A natural emperor statue of a man that could rival the emperor who founded the empire.


    In the end, he chose the position of a Regent to assist the young Emperor. Everyone saw her as an Emperor, but he never admitted to it. The provocateurs weren''t afraid of the young Emperor, but they were still fearful of him.


    Jun Qingshang initially did not want to pressure this group of people, but since this group of people wanted to provoke them, he would naturally not be polite.


    Most of the princes who came back from the outside were his uncles. Although they had no ill intentions, they did not think highly of the young emperor. The reason why he came to provoke the Emperor was to see what ability the little Emperor had. However, this group of people had forgotten about the existence of the iron-blooded Regent.


    Seeing that the sky had gradually darkened, the empress dowager brought a group of female servants to the Temple of Peace. As guests, there were many people inside the hall of peace, and with the addition of the warmth of a hall, there was no need for a brazier.


    Whether it was New Year''s Eve or the usual festivals, there was always the matter of the many young talents competing for talent, and this year was no exception.


    A few female servants who had just returned from a foreign land fell in love with Jun Qingshang at first sight and even challenged him. In the beginning, Yun Ruoleng didn''t want to bother with them, but because she didn''t care about those people who thought that she was easy to bully, each one of her words sounded worse than the last.


    Yun Ruoleng finally raised her head from within the rich food in front of her. Her face was dark as her small hand touched the tender flesh on Jun Qingshang''s waist and she gently pinched it. The corners of her lips raised slightly and her exquisite face added to her dark smile made Jun Qingshang, who was seated beside her, shudder.


    "This wangfei is not talented. Just yesterday, I made a picture of a cold plum. I wonder if Young Master Luo is interested in appreciating it?"


    Luo Yifan froze for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Yun Ruoleng in puzzlement.


    The provocateur was also a bit unhappy. This was a banquet after all, and the empress dowager and two other grand concubines were still seated on the throne.


    "Princess Hua-Yang is too serious. If you say that she isn''t talented, who would be worthy of the title ''Grandmaster of Painting''?" Luo Yifan quickly reacted and said, "Royal Concubine''s painting is hard to come by. It''s my honor to be able to get a glimpse of it."


    "Peach Blossom." Yun Ruoleng took out a painting from his seat and handed it over to Peach Red, who responded and waved at the servants from both sides, then carefully stood in the middle of the hall and opened the painting.


    The Heaven''s Enlightenment City was located to the south. It was impossible to see the snow all year round, but the Winter Plum Blossom painting actually had such heavy snow. The plum blossoms bloomed brilliantly, and the surroundings were completely silent.


    "The jade bones are filled with a foggy aura, and there''s a natural immortal wind around them."


    Luo Yifan looked at the poem on the painting and could not help but exclaim in admiration, "How wonderful!"


    "As expected of the Grandmaster of the Inspiration Sky Painting class!"


    "Good poem! "Good poem!"


    Several old officials who were obsessed with painting and poetry stood up and approached the painting, including the emperor''s tutor and the prime minister.


    The provocative woman looked at the painting and could not help but sneer, "Princess Consort sought out a grandmaster''s painting to flirt with your majesty. This is the crime of cheating on the sovereign! Even if it''s the imperial concubine, she can''t be so deceitful. Where''s the prestige she should put on the emperor? "


    "How dare you!" The Prime Minister''s face grew ugly as he stared at her with a cloudy look, "Could it be that you want to say that the few of us old men are liars?"


    "Prime Minister, you misunderstand. This subject only suspects that she is pretending to be a grandmaster level painter. This painting is indeed Leng Yun''s, but no one has ever said that Leng Yun is a woman."


    "Also, no one has ever said that Leng Yun is a man." Yun Ruoleng slowly stood up, "When this wangfei obtained this title, it was at the Hundred Blossom Banquet. Who in the capital doesn''t know of this wangfei''s great name and calligraphy?"


    "You ¡­"


    "An Le!" The burly man sitting beside the woman huffed angrily, his face already dripping with anger. "Hurry up and apologize to the wangfei!"


    "I ¡­"


    "It''s the new year and it hurts everyone''s peace." Yun Ruoleng slowly stood up from his seat: "In addition, if I don''t bring out this ability, some people might not be convinced."


    "Humph!" You are an impostor! " The lady did not have any intention to acknowledge Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng was not angry either. He turned around and blessed the empress dowager, "Imperial Mother has always liked this son''s paintings. This son shall consider it your pleasure today. "


    The empress dowager''s expression was originally extremely unsightly, but after hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, she calmed down a little and nodded. "Someone, get ready to draw."


    Quickly, two guards carried in an extremely large table and placed it in the middle of the hall. From that spot, everyone from all directions could see her movements.


    It had been a long time since Yun Ruoleng painted in front of so many people. Honestly speaking, he was a little nervous, he took a deep breath, and pressed the wolfman stick in his hand into the ink, his arms continuously dancing around the white paper. Very quickly, a simple branch appeared at a corner of the paper, and then, he filled in a wall on the paper.

 C265

    When the painting was complete, Yun Ruoleng did not forget to write a line on the paper ¡ª "Spring is over.


    Jun Qingshang''s expression was rather ugly, especially after she saw Yun Ruoleng holding the painting, her gaze became a lot colder.


    "This ¡­" Looking at the picture in Yun Ruoleng''s hands, she couldn''t help but take in a deep breath. Someone who could draw a picture with a few strokes, and was a person who liked sex, would definitely paint a lot, and it was the type who was very confident.


    The moment he made a move, even more gossip and gossip was suppressed by a painting.


    Little Emperor, who was sitting on the upper seat, looked at the painting in Yun Ruoleng''s hand and couldn''t help but to glance at Jun Qingshang, who was sitting quietly. He silently prayed for Yun Ruoleng in his heart, hoping that she would pass the New Year''s Eve "safely".


    Other than Yun Ruoleng, there was really no other person who dared to publicly curse the Regent. Although it was very covert, it still allowed people to understand the meaning of Yun Ruoleng''s poem with a single glance.


    Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to speak. The atmosphere instantly became awkward.


    The entire hall was filled with cold air and Yun Ruoleng did not seem to feel it at all. He said to the palace maids beside him who could not wait to bury their heads in the ground: "Pack up and leave."


    "Yes." The palace maids felt as if they had been granted amnesty and hurriedly tidied up everything. In the blink of an eye, the center of the hall was empty.


    The little emperor clapped his hands when he saw this. "Let''s continue to enjoy the singing and dancing. There''s no need to be overly courteous, we''ll just play by ourselves."


    With the emperor''s words, everyone felt a bit more relaxed. However, the atmosphere in the hall was still extremely depressing.


    When Yun Ruoleng returned to his seat, his expression was not too good. When he saw her back, the anger in his stomach vanished as his large hands wrapped around her soft and tender hands. With an expressionless face, he said, "This king is deeply comforted that Ruo Er did not hesitate to personally make a move for the sake of this king."


    "Hur hur." Yun Ruoleng sneered and shoved the painting in his other hand into Jun Qingshang''s embrace. "If you dare come out of the wall, I''ll chop off a branch first!"


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth curled a little. With a slight push of his hand, a perfect drawing was instantly shattered into pieces.


    The commotion over here was not small. The atmosphere that had been heated up by the little Emperor had once again frozen in an instant.


    "Your highness said his skills are itchy, and you''re showing off your skills to this wangfei!" What are you guys looking at us for? " Yun Ruoleng chuckled and said to the dancers in the hall: "Their dancing is really good, Your Majesty, do you think we should reward them?"


    "Ha ha-ha, you deserve the reward!" Jun Rushi nodded his head with a smile.


    "Yes." Little De Zi immediately responded, and looked at Yun Ruoleng in praise.


    After a few twists and turns, the banquet finally ended. What followed was for everyone to return to their homes and then guard the new year. The concept of guarding the year seemed a little distant to Yun Ruoleng. In the past, she had never succeeded guarding the year before, so it was likely that it would be the same tonight!


    The empress dowager summoned Yun Ruoleng and the Ninth Prince''s family to the Tzu Ning Palace. There were only a few people in the palace, so it would not be a problem for them to stay overnight.


    As a result, a large family gathered around a huge stove. The maidservants were cutting paper in the outer room, and the masters were also in the male and female rooms. A few people were huddled together, talking.


    Jun Qingshang never spoke a few words from the beginning till the end. Moreover, the ones who spoke were only him, so he casually replied with a few words.


    In order to not cause trouble, Yun Ruoleng kept on telling them about the things that had happened recently in the capital. After the empress dowager heard what Yun Ruoleng had said, she suddenly yearned to go out of the palace and have a look, but ¡­


    Her thoughts were good, but before she could say anything, Jun Qingshang had interrupted her thoughts, "Mother can stay in the capital for a day or two, but she cannot stay too long! After all, the Emperor is still young and needs someone to take care of him within the palace. "


    "Sigh ¡­" The empress dowager felt her heart flustered as her gaze fell on her most outstanding son. If he had been the emperor back then, then she wouldn''t have needed to manage the affairs of the harem.


    Jun Qingshang knew what his mother was thinking and did not say much.


    At this time, the maidservants outside reported, "The Emperor has arrived."


    The people in the room looked at the little emperor who had walked into the room, and with a slight gust of cold wind, they entered the room and threw themselves into Yun Ruoleng''s embrace while rubbing their little hands.


    Jun Qingshang reacted extremely quickly as he unceremoniously threw the little emperor''s collar into the empress dowager''s arms.


    It was as if this situation had occurred many times before, and the empress dowager was already used to it. She lovingly rubbed the little emperor''s head, "Xuan''er is being naughty again, aren''t you afraid your royal uncle will punish you?"


    "Did Xuan''er do something wrong?" Jun Rushi innocently frowned, a crafty look flashed past his eyes: "We are only concerned with who''s speed is faster in royal uncle! But royal uncle is still so fast, it''s not shameful for us to lose. "


    Everyone laughed out loud. At this moment, the little emperor was exceptionally adorable. He no longer had the resolute look of someone standing in the imperial court.


    For example, Jun Qingshang, who was holding Yun Ruoleng''s hand, could tell that he was extremely fidgety. Yun Ruoleng also did not know what he was fidgety about, and always tightened his grip on her hand to a point where it was loose and tight.


    Time flew. Yun Ruoleng leaned on Jun Qingshang''s shoulder with half his body, and his eyes were almost unable to open them. The empress dowager''s health was not good, so she had brought her personal nanny to rest a long time ago.


    Jun Rushi sat on the soft couch and transformed into the reality version of the Chick Pickling Rice Map.


    Jun Qingjing and his wife were the most energetic of them all. They didn''t talk much, but each took care of their own business.


    Jun Qingshang carried Yun Ruoleng, leaned his head on her head, and waited quietly for time to pass.


    "Bang, bang, bang!"


    Suddenly, a few loud noises came from within the Palace, causing everyone to be woken up. Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly in displeasure, while Jun Qingshang who was beside her soothed her and patted her back.


    Jun Rushi revealed his childish side, standing up, he ran out.


    It was just after midnight, and there were many fireworks going on outside of the Palace. The sound just now was the sound of fireworks flying into the sky.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the colorful night sky, his gaze intertwined with Jun Qingshang''s, and was filled with pain and sorrow. The corners of their mouths slightly raised, their eyes were filled with each other''s smiles.


    After the year guard ended, Jun Qingjing brought Huang Wanxue to the right hall. Jun Qingshang rubbed his hairy head and asked, "Do you want to go and sleep in your bed?"


    Having returned to his residence in the middle of the night, Yun Ruoleng shook his head lightly, "With you around, I can fall asleep anywhere."


    Jun Qingshang''s cold face revealed an additional trace of a smile. Yun Ruoleng''s trust and reliance in him had made him even more happy.


    He brought Yun Ruoleng to the left hall, and in front of them was a small palace maid who was carrying a lantern as she led the way. Although the palace maid was young, she handled matters well, and after bringing the two into the hall, she obediently withdrew.

 C266

    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes quickly swept across the side hall and landed on a large bed. Looking at the thick bedding on the bed, his eyes lit up.


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang said indifferently: "It''s cold today, go to sleep early."


    Yun Ruoleng reached out and wrapped his arms around Jun Qingshang''s neck, then tiptoed and imprinted a kiss on the corner of his lips before happily jumping onto the bed.


    Jun Qingshang smiled as he watched Yun Ruoleng''s series of actions, then laughed helplessly. He took off his outer clothes and laid on the bed, and upon lying down, he felt the people beside him squeezing over, covering the two of them with a blanket.


    "Good night." Yun Ruoleng spoke slowly with his eyes closed. His breathing gradually calmed down, and it was obvious that he was about to fall asleep.


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised into a gentle smile, and his eyes became as gentle as water.


    A dreamless night passed. Yun Ruoleng woke up rather early in the morning, washed up with Jun Qingshang, and then prepared to return to the Duke Palaces.


    The little emperor stopped what he was doing and waved at the couple gloomily. "Let''s go, let''s go!"


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang did not speak much more with him and left the palace hand in hand.


    An hour after returning to the Duke Palace, Xiahou Jin Rou brought two girls to the Duke''s Mansion to deliver the invitation. Yun Ruoleng was originally not interested, but she was the only woman in the entire Duke''s Mansion, so he couldn''t lose face for Xiahou Jin Rou.


    Yun Ruoleng wasn''t afraid of Xiahou Jin Rou, but her surname was Xia Hou. Since the battle was about to start, he couldn''t offend her and had to clean up the mess in the main hall.


    Xiahou Jin Rou paid her respects when she saw that it was just a simple blessing.


    The two girls behind her had ugly expressions, looking at Yun Ruoleng with even more contempt.


    "Don''t be angry, wangfei. These are my second sister and fifth sister. Both of them have been spoiled badly by their families. They don''t understand the rules, so wangfei has to make fun of them." Xiahou Jin Rou felt a headache coming on between the two women. She was here to deliver invitations, not to fight. These two sisters, on the other hand, had begun to act in a bad mood the moment they saw someone.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze shifted from Xiahou Jin''s gentle face to the two girls behind her. One was blue and the other was pink, their appearances were not as beautiful as Yun Ruoleng''s devastatingly beautiful, or even Xiahou Jin''s gentle beauty. With a glance, one could tell that the two of them looked ordinary.


    Yun Ruoleng could not help but frown. With this appearance, where did his arrogance come from?


    "This wangfei isn''t that petty." Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "It''s just some formalities, it''s only the first thing in the morning, what''s the matter?"


    "Actually, it''s nothing." Xia Hou Jin Rou took out an invitation from her sleeves and passed it over to Yun Ruoleng with both hands. "My father held the sixth banquet in the first six months of life.


    When Yun Ruoleng received the invitation from the Xiahou Jin Rou, he smiled gently, but he couldn''t laugh in his heart. This Xiahou Jin Rou looked gentle, but her eyes didn''t hide her feelings for Jun Qingshang.


    After the matter was settled, it was time for Xiahou Jin Rou to leave. She did not plan to stay in the manor for long, but the two women behind her refused.


    The blue clothed girl took a step forward. Her gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng''s plain attire, and laughed mockingly. It was only this much! This outfit belongs to the embroidery workshop of last year. It''s long out of date. "


    "You ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng stretched out his hand to interrupt her, and the corner of his mouth raised up slightly: "Looks good, wearing anything would look good, there''s no need to decorate yourself with new clothes."


    The woman''s expression froze. Just as she wanted to say something, the girl in pink beside her pulled the blue-clothed lady and snorted lightly at Yun Ruoleng. "It''s only relying on fighting for a long time to obtain the prince''s favor, what''s so great about that? Ten years later, after your face disappears, I want to see if you still have the guts to say these words. "


    "This wangfei will always have ten years to repay the prince''s kindness. It seems that this lady doesn''t even have the chance to do so." Yun Ruoleng charmingly replied with a smile, the two girls were no match for her, with just a few words, they were angered to the point that their faces were flushed red.


    Xiahou Jin''s soft eyebrows knitted together slightly. These two idiots dared to provoke this woman. She had never obtained any benefits from them before, and with their intelligence, they would probably be bullied until they cried by Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows at Xiahou Jin Rou, "Other than you, your family truly is a group of idiots who don''t care about face or face. In the future, you don''t need to come to the Royal Mansion with people with such low IQ. "


    The corners of Xiahou Jin''s mouth twitched a few times. This wangfei was truly amazing to be able to use the method of bringing disaster to the east.


    When the blue-clothed woman and the pink-clothed woman heard her words, their expressions changed.


    In order not to offend Yun Ruoleng, Xiahou Jin Rou berated him harshly, "Don''t forget what you promised me when you left this place!"


    Only then did the two girls suppress the anger in their hearts and harrumphed coldly, not saying another word.


    Xiahou Jin Rou nodded to Yun Ruoleng, and quickly brought them out of the Regent¡¯s Mansion.


    "Miss, are we letting them go just like that?" Peach Blossom was so angry that her eyes turned red. This was the first time she had met someone who dared to talk to her like that.


    "If we don''t let them go, we can''t possibly let them stay here!" Cui Ying rolled her eyes at her. "Princess isn''t at a disadvantage either. She''s after all, the young lady of the Xiahou Family, the head of the Four Great Families.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Cui Ying with praise in his eyes, "Xiahou Jin Rou is a smart person, it''s impossible for her not to understand this point.


    "Yes." Although Peach Blossom was not satisfied with Yun Ruoleng''s decision, she still agreed to it. It was just as Yun Ruoleng said, she did not lose out, so why bother with the two girls!


    At noon, Jun Qingshang returned to eat with Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng passed him the invitation from his chest and even told him what Xiahou Jin Rou had said.


    Jun Qingshang''s stiff face softened, and nodded at Yun Ruoleng: "We''ve been married for so long, we haven''t even seen her, so it''s fine if we take advantage of the year and go."


    "But Ling''er will be coming over on the sixth day!" Yun Ruoleng and Yang Zi Zi had discussed it beforehand. On the sixth day of the new year, she came to the Duke Palaces to pray with her at the Flameless Temple.


    Jun Qingshang frowned: "Then why don''t you move your time a bit further?"


    Yun Ruoleng was also not an unreasonable person. After thinking for a while, he said, "I''ll discuss it with Zi Ling."


    Jun Qingshang knew that his wife was someone who had her own opinions, she would not interrupt his thoughts just because of his matter. If he could let her think about it or discuss it, then most likely, there would be room for negotiation.


    As expected, two days later, Yun Ruoleng brought up this matter again with a smile on his face. "On the sixth day, we''ll go to Xiahou Manor. On the eighth day, I''ll go to Wu Ying Temple with Ling''er to burn some incense.

 C267

    Jun Qingshang, who was still calm and composed a moment ago, instantly darkened his face, "How many days are you going to stay there for?"


    "That''s right!" Yun Ruoleng said in all seriousness: "I need to have good will, I only hope that everything will go smoothly next year, and that the citizens will live in peace and work happily."


    Jun Qingshang was extremely against this decision, but he really couldn''t change the decision that Yun Ruoleng had made.


    In other words, if he wanted to change things, he would have to go with her. Eating and reciting scriptures was even more unsuitable for him. It would be better to just wait in the capital for her to come back.


    Yun Ruoleng did not have as many mental activities as him, since she only said one sentence, even if Jun Qingshang did not agree, she had to do it, if he did not agree, then she would climb over the wall and run away from home.


    After Yun Ruoleng took Jun Qingshang down, he, the Regent, no longer had any power in his home. He no longer had the authority to even control Yun Ruoleng.


    Jun Qingshang secretly regretted spoiling this girl. He also secretly decided that he would not let her be with the girls from the Yang family anymore.


    The sixth day quickly arrived. When Yun Ruoleng went out, she was dressed elegantly and elegantly, but compared to her casual appearance from the other day, her clothes today were even more dignified.


    Yun Ruoleng wore a light yellow flowery jacket, looking pure and dignified. With her shiny black hair tied up in a noble woman''s bun, and her complicated pearl hairpin hanging in her hair, Yun Ruoleng shook his head, feeling the weight of the jacket, he couldn''t help but frown.


    "Miss, don''t move!" Peach Blossom pressed down on Yun Ruoleng''s swaying body: "We dressed up so well that those lousy long-mouthed women could not be picky about it."


    "Peach Blossom ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was a little helpless, she had just said that this girl had been busy since early in the morning, and it turned out to be to strike at two unknown girls.


    "Our young mistress is like a flower made of jade, why are you saying so?" Peach Red let out a disgruntled snort.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly had a feeling that he couldn''t say anything. Seeing that Peach Blossom was so indignant, he couldn''t say anything.


    Jun Qingshang walked into the room with a piece of paper in his hand, and his gaze was instantly attracted to Yun Ruoleng who was in the mirror.


    "Prince ¡­" Yun Ruoleng turned her head around, her exquisite little face was smeared with makeup, her almond-shaped eyes were slightly raised, and her gaze was filled with emotion.


    Jun Qingshang felt that he had missed a beat in his heart.


    Seeing Jun Qingshang''s reaction, she became even more proud. Her young miss was as beautiful as a fairy, just looking at her, with a little makeup, she was already mesmerizing the Duke.


    When Jun Qingshang came back to his senses, he felt his heart beating faster and his body tensed up. While his Ruo Er stood up from her seat, tidied the clothes on her body, and then cutely laughed as she slowly walked over.


    The beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, and Jun Qingshang took the small and tender hands of his wife, pulling her into his embrace. His rich and magnetic voice slowly sounded out: "My beloved concubine, are you dressing up today to seduce this king?"


    Yun Ruoleng laughed softly as her small hand slowly slid across his chest. "Am I beautiful?"


    "Beautiful."


    To be able to spit out this word from Jun Qingshang''s mouth, Yun Ruoleng felt that he had succeeded.


    Jun Qingshang''s forehead was pressed against Yun Ruoleng''s, and he looked at her face which was just inches away from him. Suddenly, he had a thought that he wanted to hide her. Peach Blossom was very smart. She quickly left the room when she saw her young mistress and the prince chatting with each other.


    Jun Qingshang lowered his head and was about to kiss it, but he was blocked by a soft little hand.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled slightly: "It''s getting late, Your Highness, shall we head out?"


    Jun Qingshang''s handsome face darkened bit by bit. Just thinking about how his wife would go out to meet someone, his brows couldn''t help but tighten. "Peach Blossom! Prepare the bamboo hat! "


    The bamboo hat again.


    Although Yun Ruoleng was not happy, thinking about her outfit, if she did not block it, it would probably attract many people''s attention. She did not want to attract attention.


    Peach Red was standing at the door. After hearing Jun Qingshang''s words, she quickly walked in and took out her muslin bamboo hat.


    No matter what, Yun Ruoleng had to wear it as he was holding onto Jun Qingshang''s hand and led him out. When they reached the entrance of the residence, they saw a luxurious horse carriage parked at the entrance. An Ying was already waiting for them below the horse carriage.


    Through the light muslin, An Ying''s gaze could be seen to be fixated behind her. Yun Ruoleng suddenly remembered that the one standing behind him was Peach Blossom, her eyes lit up. She had a rough theory in her heart, she only needed to confirm and that would be enough.


    Once they entered the carriage, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but curse at them for their extravagance ¡­


    In the carriage, Yun Ruoleng had already taken off his bamboo hat and a face that could make people infatuate him appeared in front of him. He felt his throat tighten, and the heat coming from his body rushed towards one place.


    Yun Ruoleng acted as if he did not see it, and arched her head in his embrace, showing an unconcealable gentleness.


    It had been a long time since he last saw Yun Ruoleng''s expression, and the big palm in Jun Qingshang''s hand lightly patted Yun Ruoleng''s head: "Alright, we''re almost there too."


    So fast? Yun Ruoleng sat up and tidied up the messy clothes on his body, then sat on the other side of the horse carriage, here he was close to the carriage''s curtain.


    "This... "They''re all in Beijing?" Yun Ruoleng asked in disbelief.


    The Xiahou Family was in Pai County, and they owned nearly the entire county. She thought they would be gone for a few days! Who would have thought that it would be in the capital.


    Jun Qingshang chuckled, "As one of the Four Great Clans, the Xiahou Family. "Compared to the other three families who are countless times smarter, they are still far away in Pai County and do not participate in the royal family''s battle. As long as the Wealthy Class families can inject their connections, they will be able to make good use of all the other counties and states, and if the royal family really wants to make a move, they will have to consider it a few times."


    Yun Ruoleng felt a chill run down her spine when she heard this. She had always thought that the reason the Xiahou Family was able to become the head of the Four Great Clans was because of their merits.


    Jun Qingshang waved his hand, signaling her to come to his side first, and Yun Ruoleng nodded his head. Returning back to Jun Qingshang''s embrace, and listening to Jun Qingshang''s explanation of the hundred years old family.


    The horse carriage quickly stopped, and stopped in front of a small mansion. Outside, An Ying and An Xiang jumped off the carriage at the same time. An Ying said respectfully to the two inside: "Your Highness, we have arrived at the Xiahou Residence."


    The carriage door was pushed open with a "clang" sound, An Ying quickly pulled open the carriage curtain and came out first. He was dressed in a purple robe with a jade ribbon and his hair was tied up, his exquisite carving-like face was revealed from the carriage.


    Jun Qingshang''s powerful aura caused the people standing at the entrance to suck in a breath of cold air.


    Immediately after, a pair of beautiful, white, jade-like fingers rested on Jun Qingshang''s fingers, and a face that could topple nations and topple nations appeared in front of everyone.


    The crowd standing at the entrance were all stunned when they saw the couple. It was unknown who reacted to this, but they quickly cupped their hands and greeted, "Regent, Regent Consort, please enter."

 C268

    "Clan leader is too polite." Jun Qingshang nodded indifferently, the aura around him was still so strong that it was hard to breathe.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled sweetly and did not say a word. Peach Blossom and An Ying who followed behind with their heads held high and their chests puffed up as they followed behind Xia Hou Chun.


    The men and women of the Xiahou Clan were seated separately. Upon entering, they heard a gentle voice call out to them. "Cousin, you''ve come."


    Jun Qingshang slightly nodded his head, his face did not have any additional expression from the start to the end, and Yun Ruoleng who was at the side had his mouth slightly raised, his eyes revealing no happiness nor joy.


    Seeing Xiahou Jin Rou reach out to stop him, Yun Ruoleng turned to her side slightly. "What is Miss Xiahou doing?"


    Xiahou Jin Rou''s hand paused as she pursed her lips in slight embarrassment. "If Jin Rou wants to bring her cousin to the women''s quarters, there''s no other reason."


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng looked at her with a smile that was not a smile, and his body had already been pulled into Jun Qingshang''s embrace with caution.


    Without waiting for Xiahou Jin Rou to speak, he heard Jun Qingshang say, "When did the rules of the Xiahou Family apply to men and women sitting separately?"


    "Father said that he was afraid that the women and men would be embarrassed together, so he decided to take a seat separately." Xiahou Jin Rou was also somewhat helpless when she spoke up at this point. There was an awkward expression on her face. Tian Qi Kingdom did not have the habit of seating separately for men and women, and it would not affect them much even if they occasionally appeared in some places. The decision that the Xiahou Family had made this time was rather strange.


    "I will now bring Ruo Er to see Grandmother." Jun Qingshang did not speak anymore, and directly walked around her.


    After Yun Ruoleng was dragged away by Jun Qingshang, Xiahou Jin Rou''s eyes flashed a cold look. Yun Ruoleng, don''t think that you can interrogate me just because your cousin is protecting you right now.


    Yun Ruoleng did not forget one thing, and that was that her esteemed Regent was an idiot. Even she, who led her in all sorts of twists and turns, did not know where the two of them had gone to.


    "Are we lost?" Yun Ruoleng muttered to himself in a low voice by his side.


    His voice wasn''t loud, but it completely entered Jun Qingshang''s ears. Jun Qingshang slightly nodded, and with a calm face, he said: "This courtyard is just like a maze, if you want to walk out, I''m afraid you''ll need some effort."


    "Jun Qingshang..." Yun Ruoleng was speechless. Just now, when he was walking forward with a serious expression on his face, he thought he knew the way.


    Jun Qingshang raised his hand and rubbed her head, and then whistled into the sky, causing an eagle''s cry to ring out. Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief, and smiled: "Don''t worry, I won''t throw you here."


    Yun Ruoleng snorted: "Let''s go!"


    Jun Qingshang nodded her head, she had no choice but to follow her little wife, holding her hand and walking towards the eagle''s direction.


    Yun Ruoleng remembered that it was used to send a message last time. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this eagle was more useful than Jun Qingshang. This way, Yun Ruoleng could only speak in his heart. If Jun Qingshang knew about this, he would probably have Eagle Soup to drink tonight.


    Very quickly, the two of them arrived at the main hall, and they could faintly hear the sounds of laughter from inside. The old granny guarding the door watched as Jun Qingshang brought Yun Ruoleng in, and quickly pulled open the curtain to report in.


    When Yun Ruoleng and the rest reached the door, the woman just happened to walk out, kneeling on the ground and bowing respectfully to the two of them. Jun Qingshang acknowledged her name and walked in.


    An old man in his seventies sat on top of a chair that was filled with people. He had a calm expression, his aged face was filled with wrinkles, and the gaze he looked at Jun Qingshang with became a lot more benevolent. The old man waved at Jun Qingshang: "Long time no see, Xin''er, how have you been?"


    "Grandmother, your grandson and his family are here to pay their respects." As a regent, it was clear that this was the grandmother''s face.


    It was as if old lady Xiahou seemed to see Yun Ruoleng at this moment. Her wrinkled face twisted into a ball as she watched her expression quickly change.


    "With such a charming appearance, I don''t know what kind of demonic technique you used to make my grandson fall for you."


    "What is the madame saying?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, his expression becoming uglier. Since he was young, no one had ever said something as harsh as this to her. If her complexion was good, then that would be strange.


    Yun Ruoleng never thought that when the old lady saw him like this, Jun Qingshang''s expression did not look any better. The cold aura around him started to grow colder and colder.


    It was as if old madam Xiahou didn''t see the changes in the two as she snorted coldly, "Did I say something wrong?" You tricked my grandson, making him have no children now. "


    "Ha!" Yun Ruoleng finally understood what the old lady was thinking. So it was because of this, Yun Ruoleng glanced at the man beside him, and saw that his expression could no longer be described with words, the fingers that were holding his own loosened, as though he could explode at any time.


    "What are you laughing at? Could it be that this old body was wrong? " The old mistress of the Xiahou Clan used her seniority to show off. She pointed to an average-looking woman and said, "In terms of appearance, although Ping`er is inferior to her, she is smarter. Her zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting are among the best amongst her peers. And ¡­"


    "Can she be compared with the champion of the Hundred Flowers Banquet?" Jun Qingshang interrupted the old lady''s words coldly and continued: "Can she compare with the number one painter in the world?"


    "Of course not, but Jin Rou can do it!" "It is said that the head of the Hundred Blossom Banquet was not perfect. It is said that she did not know how to embroider. This is a big deal!" Our Jin Rou is perfect. "


    The old lady''s words made Jun Qingshang extremely disgusted, and his cold gaze landed on the old lady''s face. "If grandmother is here to tell me this, then I will leave first with the princess consort!"


    "Sigh!" Don''t go! " Seeing that Jun Qingshang did not stay nor give her any face, the old mistress of the Xiahou Clan immediately became anxious, "What do you want to say about this? Tell me, what''s so good about this woman?"


    "She is the chief of the Hundred Flowers Banquet!" Jun Qingshang''s words were like a bomb, causing everyone in the room to explode.


    The Xia Hou family did not live in the capital often, so naturally they only heard half of what was being said. The old lady was startled, and when she regained her senses, Jun Qingshang had already left with Yun Ruoleng.


    The old lady had never thought that she would offend Jun Qingshang''s granddaughter after introducing her to him. Furthermore, from the looks of it, he did not seem to want to come here anymore. As the old mistress sighed, her hatred for Yun Ruoleng deepened. Unfortunately, no one could change this fact.


    Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng out of the Xiahou Residence. When the Xia Hou Chunyi, who was guarding the door and receiving the guests, saw the two of them coming out, he went over to them and clasped his hands in confusion. "The lunch has not started yet.


    "Humph!" Jun Qingshang didn''t even bother to look at him, went around him, and directly left.

 C269

    Xiahou Chun''s heart tightened and his face became tense. Seeing that the two of them were determined to leave, he quickly said to the woman behind him, "Go ask what happened? I''ll go stop them. If they leave the mansion, what will others think of us in the future? "


    "Alright." The woman nodded and quickly ran towards the backyard.


    Xia Hou Chun followed up closely, blocking in front of Jun Qingshang. "I wonder who has offended your highness, if your highness directly leaves, it will cause people to misunderstand."


    Jun Qingshang sneered: "Then I''ll have to ask Grandmother!"


    When Xiahou Chun sensed the Qi from Jun Qingshang, he was slightly slow in his heart. Just as he was about to stop them, An Ying stopped them, and An Ying spoke up even more rudely: "If Lord Xiahou blocks us like this, I''m afraid Prince will be even more angry."


    "¡­" What else could Xiahou Chun say? He was a prince, a king with the authority to rule the world. It was naturally good that he came, but now that he had suddenly left ¡­ Xiahou Chun didn''t dare to stop them, and could only hope that his wife would return soon.


    Yun Ruoleng was also angry in his heart, but seeing that Jun Qingshang was even angrier than him, he didn''t think it appropriate to flare up and just followed Jun Qingshang up the carriage. Jun Qingshang rubbed her head apologetically: "I have let you down."


    "Nope." The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched with difficulty, he held out his hands and held tightly those two fingers that had a thin cocoon around them: "With you here, you don''t feel wronged."


    Jun Qingshang forced himself to smile, the haze in his eyes did not dissipate, the woman at the tip of his heart was actually cursed, and that person was his own grandmother, it would be weird if he had a good temper.


    When Xiahou Chun found out what had happened, his expression turned extremely ugly. After he dismissed the entire room, he said to the Countess, "Mother, do you know what you''re doing? You really know how to dig your own grave! "Even the empress dowager didn''t dare to say a single word. You actually dare to ¡­"


    "I''m his grandmother!" How could the old mistress of the Xiahou Clan be interested? She could do whatever she wanted based on her seniority.


    Would Jun Qingshang estimate the relationship between the blood clots? Of course not. Xiahou Chun felt that having such a stupid mother would only bring a calamity to the family.


    Xiahou Chun''s tone became much heavier, "That''s someone from the royal family. Would he recognize you as his grandmother? It''s one thing for you to take advantage of your seniority, but you''re even scolding an imperial concubine. If it wasn''t for the fact that he had no interest in the throne, the position would have long been his. Just based on what you said today, the Regent could have convicted you! This time you''ve gotten into trouble, no one can save you! But don''t involve the rest of the family. "


    "You ¡­" Old Madam Xiahou''s face was ashen as she pointed at Xiahou Chun, unable to speak. Her entire body trembled. She had done all of this for the Xiahou Family, and now that something had happened, all of it had gone back to her. How could she not be angry? The old mistress twitched and fainted.


    "Mother, are you alright?" Xiahou Chun asked in shock.


    The old mistress fainted. This frightened Xiahou Chun so much that he hurriedly went to find a doctor. The banquet at the Xiahou Family was also thrown into chaos because of the old mistress.


    After Yun Ruoleng returned to the Duke Palace, Peach Blossom had always been by her side. On the other hand, after Jun Qingshang returned to the palace, he went to the study room and did not come out for even an hour. Yun Ruoleng sat in his room, bored, and started flipping through his books: "What did you just say?"


    "Old madam Xiahou has suffered a stroke. Not long after we left, the Xiahou family sent someone to look for a doctor. It seems that they have quite a serious illness." Peach Red said with a schadenfreude laugh, "This is retribution! "But it was a bit too quick."


    "Shut up!" Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly, then berated sternly: "If you were to say such words, you wouldn''t need to follow me anymore."


    "Yes ¡­" Peach Blossom pouted. Although she was not convinced, she knew that her words would affect Yun Ruoleng. So she stopped talking.


    Yun Ruoleng understood more than anyone else that Jun Qingshang''s view of the entire Xiahou Residence had changed because of this matter, especially the old mistress of the Xiahou Residence. It was very likely that Jun Qingshang and the Xiahou Family had misunderstood them because of this!


    Tao Hong had been chased out of the room by Yun Ruoleng. At this moment, her heart was a little messy, and it was unknown if it was because of Jun Qingshang that she left a scar in her heart.


    When Jun Qingshang who was in the study room came back, he gave two orders in quick succession. He seemed to have the intention of cutting off all ties with the Xiahou Family, scaring An Ying who was standing at the side, listening with his head lowered. He did not agree with what was saying at all.


    "Your Highness, isn''t this too hasty?" In the end, An Ying still could not hold back and spoke up under Jun Qingshang''s cold gaze.


    Jun Qingshang merely shot him a cold glance: "Do you know why Phoenix Diagram was able to sit on the throne?"


    An Ying''s heart tightened as he suddenly thought of the mother race of the Phoenix Diagram. It was a great clan, and it was also because they had the support of a great clan that they were able to endure for so many years ¡­ An Ying seemed to have thought of something, and quickly cupped his hands together and retreated.


    Seeing that An Ying had left, Jun Qingshang could not help but frown, his gaze also became colder by a bit, and he walked towards Yun Ruoleng''s room. After being chased out, Peach Red stood at the door and looked at Yun Ruoleng''s tightly shut room and then at the study room that was just two or three doors away from them from time to time. Suddenly, she heard the door open and was about to speak excitedly, but when she saw the person who came out, her face immediately turned ugly, and she snorted lightly as if she did not see anything.


    An Ying was also startled, but he did not stay any longer, and quickly left. Jun Qingshang walked out right after him. Peach Blossom looked like she had seen her savior as she gestured nonstop at Jun Qingshang. The expression on Jun Qingshang''s face did not change, but his heart was at ease. He felt that this girl would become smarter after following Yun Ruoleng for a long time.


    Jun Qingshang walked to the door and pushed open the door, entering the room, he just so happened to see Yun Ruoleng leaning on the soft bed, with a thin blanket over her knees, holding a book in her hands. She was staring at the book in a daze, and even when she heard the door open, she did not come back to her senses.


    "Huh? You wouldn''t have done anything to them, right?" Yun Ruoleng lightly placed the book in his hand to the side.


    Jun Qingshang''s chin rested on Yun Ruoleng''s shoulder, and the corner of her mouth raised a little in an invisible place: "What do you think?"


    "I''m afraid that the old madame of the Xiahou Family is just relying on her seniority. I don''t think that we should implicate the entire Xiahou Family." Yun Ruoleng did not want him to break all ties with the Xiahou Family because of this.


    Jun Qingshang reached out and held her slightly cold fingers, and gently played with them: "She is just a sharp weapon used by others as a blade. Some people never know what is the matter with the royal family and what is the matter with the Regent! "

 C270

    When Jun Qingshang said this, his entire body released a cold killing intent, causing Yun Ruoleng''s body to tremble, the expression on his face became complicated: "Looks like the four great families who are calm on the surface are already beginning to act, then shouldn''t we make a decision earlier?"


    "Xuan''er isn''t a pushover. Just leave such a small matter to him." Jun Qingshang leaned his body down, and held Yun Ruoleng in his embrace. Even if his body was warm, he was not some noble man.


    This year, the people from the Heavenly Enlightenment Nation could be considered at peace, but the entire Yue Ling Nation had fallen into a state of panic, and the Minister of State had reshuffled his cards. The great fortifications had started to be heavily guarded, recruiting soldiers and horses.


    After the year was over, Jun Qingshang''s expression naturally did not look too good when he received the news about Yue Ling. Also, Yun Ruoleng was not too good either.


    "What did you say?" Yun Ruoleng stood where he was, furiously staring at An Yue, who was standing in front of him, talking.


    "The Yun family''s madame wants you to go back ¡­" An Yue was even panicking in his heart when he said this, afraid that he would really anger her with his words. He hurriedly changed his words, "Of course, you are the Crown Prince''s consort, if you don''t want to go back, you don''t have to!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s face was extremely unsightly. It was unknown whether it was because of this news, but her current emotions could no longer be described with the word ''furious''. Old granny Yun was not as foolish as old mistress Xiahou. Ever since she left the Minister¡¯s Mansion, the old granny had indicated that she did not care about this matter and even though she did not speak of it, she could still sense it.


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng slowly calmed down, his eyes becoming silent. He chuckled: "They asked us if we prepared a big gift, why don''t we take a look?"


    "But ¡­" An Yue still wanted to say something, but was cut off by Yun Ruoleng with a raise of his hand.


    "I know what you want to say. It doesn''t matter, if they dare to play tricks on me, I''ll make them suffer." Yun Ruoleng laughed sinisterly, the smile causing the people around her to retreat a few steps, their bodies trembling.


    Peach Blossom pulled on Cui Ying''s sleeves and muttered: "Miss, you must be possessed! Why does that smile look so scary? "


    Cui Ying expressionlessly nodded, indicating that she had the same feeling. His voice was not loud, but Yun Ruoleng heard it clearly. Yun Ruoleng suddenly turned around and looked at the two of them with a smile.


    The two of them tensed up, and the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth rose: "You two come with me!"


    "Huh?" Peach Red subconsciously looked at Yun Ruoleng. It wasn''t that she didn''t want to go, but that her young miss actually wanted them to go to such a dangerous place with her.


    After An Ying prepared the carriage for Yun Ruoleng, Yun Ruoleng didn''t have time to say goodbye to Jun Qingshang and directly rushed to the Minister¡¯s Mansion with Peach Blossom. The Minister¡¯s Mansion entrance was still the same as before, there was nothing unusual about it. Yun Ruoleng calmly got down from the carriage and tidied up the wrinkles that did not exist on his body.


    "Seventh Miss is here." The old woman standing at the door greeted him with a smile and a respectful blessing.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, as the proverb goes, do not hit people with smiles on their faces, this woman came up to greet them with greetings and respect, she would naturally not give her any face. Cui Ying and Peach Blossom slightly bowed in return, and upon seeing this, the old woman immediately had a good impression of Yun Ruoleng. "The old lady is waiting for young miss at the He An Yuan, the young miss will follow this old servant."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, with one hand holding her skirt and the other holding her peach hand. The two master and servant had been together for many years, so they were naturally able to understand each other''s movements.


    The moment Yun Ruoleng stepped into the Minister¡¯s Mansion, she felt as if her entire Minister¡¯s Mansion was enveloped in darkness, and a dangerous aura unceasingly enveloped her. Yun Ruoleng and Peach Red looked at each other, and Peach Blossom nodded slightly as she obediently let go of Yun Ruoleng''s hand and took a step back.


    Yun Ruoleng followed behind her and arrived at the Crane Garden. The wife opened the heavy curtains and Yun Ruoleng signalled the two people behind her with her eyes. Cui Ying consciously retreated to the side and Peach Red looked at him pitifully.


    Upon entering the room, he saw an old man leaning on the bed. Yun Ruoleng slowly walked to the front of the bed, but did not see her open her eyes.


    The old granny who followed in was also puzzled. She stepped forward to wake up Old Lady Yun, but just as she took two steps forward, the old granny who was laying on the bed woke up. Her gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng as she sighed softly, "You''re here."


    "Since the old lady has invited me, I naturally cannot refuse." Yun Ruoleng''s elegant body could be considered saluting.


    Old Madam Yun chuckled softly. Her aged voice rang out slowly, "No wonder the Regent would choose you. It seems like the loss of that girl, Yu''er, is not an injustice."


    "If the old lady is going to tell me about this, then I''ll head back first. There are still a lot of matters that I have to deal with in the manor." Yun Ruoleng did not want to hear her evaluation of him.


    "What''s the hurry?" The smile on the old lady''s face looked extremely strange. Even Yun Ruoleng, who was so powerful, couldn''t help but shiver.


    Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, he only frowned and looked at her quietly for a long time before slowly opening his mouth: "Does the old lady have any advice for me?"


    "Not really." Old Madam Yun was indeed worthy of being the most intelligent person in the Yun Family. Whether it was her speech or actions, she was extremely well-mannered. Old Mistress Yun''s wrinkled face suddenly turned serious as she pointed at the place in front of her. "Since you''ve returned, you should accompany me, this old bones, to have a chat."


    Yun Ruoleng did not speak, and took the opportunity to sit at the place she pointed to. When Old Madam Yun saw that she had sat down, she could not help but let out a long sigh. "Your father probably did the stupidest thing to get removed from the family list.


    Yun Ruoleng could understand anything else, after saying so much, the old lady merely wanted him to let Yun Shicheng go. How laughable, would she so easily let go of someone who wanted to harm her?


    The old lady was very smart. She knew that Yun Ruoleng wouldn''t let her son go so easily, so she started to talk about other things, stories and so on. It wasn''t that he didn''t know how to fight Taiji Yun Ruoleng, but he didn''t have the leisure to play with her.


    Even though Old Lady Yun''s mouth was dry, Yun Ruoleng still sat there and sipped his tea while listening, with no intention of helping her in any way. The old lady could not help but frown. She finally could not hold it in and asked, "Are you really planning on not recognizing your father?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head and shook his head, his expression becoming much calmer, he looked at the old lady who had a puzzled expression, he then put down the teacup in his hand and said: "Old granny, you have also said that father has not fulfilled his responsibilities for the past few years, if so, this time he is trapped in jail, I have no rights nor obligation to interfere in this matter."

 C271

    "You ¡­"


    "Also, it''s not that I don''t understand the stories you''ve just told me. You just want to tell me that if I want to be a good husband, I need to have a strong family! That mother of the First Madam was so powerful, but in the end, she still dragged her husband into this. "


    Yun Ruoleng softly interrupted the old lady''s words, and after he finished speaking, he stood up and patted off the non-existent dust on his body. "It has been a long time since we''ve been out of here, it''s time for Your Highness to get anxious.


    The old lady was startled by Yun Ruoleng''s soft words. Her mind quickly worked to find a way out, but Yun Ruoleng was determined not to, even if she couldn''t find a way out. Yun Ruoleng left just like that, without any obstructions, although the dangerous aura that pervaded the air did not change.


    Not long after Yun Ruoleng returned to the Duke Palaces, he heard from Uncle Pu that the Emperor had arrived, and looked to be in a hurry. Yun Ruoleng did not think much of it at first, but when he heard that Jun Rushi''s expression was not good, he immediately jumped: Where is he?


    "The prince''s study." Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s anxious look, Uncle Pu could not help but remind him: "We''ve already gone in, can you still go in?"


    The study room was the most heavily guarded place in the prince''s mansion, so naturally, not a single person could pass through. Although Yun Ruoleng was an exception, this did not mean that she could run away while the Duke was talking.


    Yun Ruoleng''s body trembled slightly, an awkward expression flashed across her exquisite little face as she slowly sat down. Uncle Pu, you should get busy first! They''ll come out later. "


    She wasn''t sitting back because she couldn''t get in, but because today she had suddenly run over and disturbed their conversation. Tao Hong sat at the side and tidied up the threads in her hands. Her gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng''s anxious face, and she asked with slight suspicion: "Miss, what''s wrong? Isn''t it normal for the king to have a discussion with the emperor? "


    "Even so." Yun Ruoleng paused, "But have you ever seen the emperor running to the Duke Palace in such a hurry?"


    "This ¡­" Peach Blossom also realized the seriousness of the situation. She put down what she was doing and sighed in consolation, "Even so, it''s useless to be in a hurry. Let''s wait for the conversation between the prince and the emperor to finish!"


    "That''s the only way." Yun Ruoleng picked up the tea that was already cold at the side of his hand, and took a small sip before calming his heart down as well.


    In the study, Jun Rushi and Jun Qingshang sat facing each other. Between the two of them was a map made out of sheepskin, with the two of them sitting on one side, carefully studying the contents of the map.


    Jun Rushi pointed to a place with many trees on it, and his eyes lit up: If the Yue Ling nation wants to attack, they have to send troops from here, and the place is very complicated, I think we should ambush them first.


    "Why can''t Huang Teng do what you can?" Jun Qingshang retorted his words without a trace of warmth.


    Jun Rushi retracted his finger in embarrassment, obviously not in a good mood, "Who knew they would act so quickly? If we can delay it for three to five years, we will definitely let Phoenix Diagram know how powerful it is. "


    "He is a person good at disguising himself, and he has just ascended to the throne. This King does not think that he would choose to launch a true attack at this moment." Jun Qingshang put away the parchment on the table and slowly explained: "Huang Tu had been able to endure for so many years, if he were to make a move right after he ascended to the throne, he would probably attract all kinds of civil and military officials to oppose him and lose the support of the commoners. This king believes that he would not do something that is similar to committing suicide."


    "But we received an urgent report from the border region. The Yue Ling has already begun moving south, and they have already started attacking the surrounding Northern Desert ¡­" At this point, the little emperor''s face turned even uglier.


    Jun Qingshang shook his head disapprovingly, and patted the back of his hand soothingly: "It''s true that emperors can think far ahead, but the Northern Desert is also not to be trifled with. They are experts in riding, and I suffered a huge loss in front of their superb riding skills back then, I think Feng Tu understands."


    Jun Rushi''s face looked conflicted: Then why did he attack the Northern Desert?


    "The first step in his war is to try the depth of the water." At this point, a trace of killing intent flashed across Jun Qingshang''s handsome face: "Since he has already started preparations, we cannot delay any further. Tomorrow, I will return to the military camp to train.


    "Thank you, royal uncle." Jun Rushi finally got the answer he wanted and was relieved. He got up and prepared to leave.


    Jun Qingshang did not prepare to keep him, watching him leave. Instead, he opened the parchment in his hand and slowly studied the things in it, while sipping his tea.


    At this time, the closed door to the room was pushed open from the outside. Jun Qingshang did not even need to raise his head to know who it was. Yun Ruoleng, dressed in a long white dress, slowly walked over while holding an exquisite plate of pastries. The pastries looked soft and tender, and the faint aroma spread throughout the entire study.


    "What''s so fragrant?" Jun Qingshang couldn''t help but ask as he saw a wisp of white appear before his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng placed the pastries on the small table and sat in his embrace. He picked up a piece with his finger and placed it beside his lips, "Crystal Plum Blossom Cake, I know you don''t like sweet food, so I put some salt in it.


    Jun Qingshang did not hold back, he opened up his mouth and ate half of a piece of pastry. The instant the pastry entered his mouth, the feeling of it melting made Jun Qingshang''s entire body tremble: "This taste is not bad."


    "As long as you like it!" Yun Ruoleng stuffed the remaining half of the piece into her mouth, her soft and pink tongue still wanting to lick her lips. Jun Qingshang felt his throat tighten, and he moved even faster than his brain to kiss that slightly opened lips.


    "Howl ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was suddenly attacked, her small face flushed red. Her small hands pressed against his chest, but she did not struggle free.


    Yun Ruoleng''s white face flushed red as she looked at the man in front of her who was about to be devoured with lust, "Your Highness!"


    How could Jun Qingshang endure it? She carried Yun Ruoleng in her arms and walked towards the back of the study room at the moment.


    Behind the screen, there was a double bed that could accommodate two people. The blanket was folded neatly, and it was not covered in dust just because Jun Qingshang rarely stayed here.


    Jun Qingshang placed Yun Ruoleng on the bed, and then went over and pressed Yun Ruoleng''s chest: "My prince, it would not be good if this news were to spread."


    Jun Qingshang smiled instead of getting angry: "Who dares?"


    The domineering words made Yun Ruoleng not know how to reply for a while. He could only act pitifully and said with grievance: "But I still haven''t recovered from last night''s injuries?"

 C272

    Yun Ruoleng did not forget that last night, there was a person who pestered him to the point where he was only willing to let go of the matter after a few hours ¡­ This man must be a bug in the brain! Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but curse in his heart, but on the surface, he looked pitiful.


    Jun Qingshang''s hands stopped moving, the beautiful eyes became even more enchanting, and turned around to lie beside her. She took a few deep breaths, as if she wanted to suppress the flames of desire in her heart.


    Yun Ruoleng could also be considered relieved, but he was especially glad that Jun Qingshang had not lost his reason yet. And it was precisely because of this that Yun Ruoleng laid flat on his bed, not daring to make any movements, as he was afraid of igniting the flames of anger he had just suppressed.


    After an unknown amount of time, Jun Qingshang got up from the bed. She tidied up the clothes on her body, and looked down condescendingly at someone lying on the bed with a pair of watery eyes.


    "I''m sleepy for a while. I still have some work to do."


    The meaning behind his words was that he had no time to accompany her, so Yun Ruoleng nodded obediently and watched him leave the screen. Through the screen, Yun Ruoleng could vaguely see his figure sitting back to his original position, slowly chewing a piece of cake. Yun Ruoleng''s mood was especially good.


    Yun Ruoleng laid on his bed and looked at Jun Qingshang''s serious appearance. He suddenly remembered a comment that the women of his previous life had made to the man: "Men who work seriously are the most man.''


    Although Jun Qingshang was looking at something, his heart had long since flown behind the screen.


    After an unknown amount of time, the room became eerily quiet, when suddenly there was a knock on the door. Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng came back to their senses at the same time. Jun Qingshang coughed lightly, "Come in!"


    Very quickly the door opened, a tall figure walked in, holding onto a pile of items, Yun Ruoleng could see through the screen that the person who had come was An Ying, holding onto a pile of accounts.


    "Master, these are the account books of the gatekeeper for this month. They were sent over to Princess Hua-Yang for her inspection." When An Ying came in, he had already looked around, but he did not see Yun Ruoleng, so he was not surprised either. When he said those words, his gaze landed on the screen, he knew clearly that the wangfei was there.


    "Put it down!" Jun Qingshang''s aura instantly turned cold: "Get out!"


    An Ying could not help but shiver, he placed the accounting book on the small table and quickly left. Yun Ruoleng''s soft laughter came from behind the screen and a beautiful figure walked out from behind it. Her facial features were picturesque, and she half leaned against the screen: "I say, your jealousy is really strong, and the rich taste of the pastries is hard to conceal."


    "Then are you honored?" Jun Qingshang also laughed, his handsome face had lost a bit of ice, and gained an extra bit of gentleness, so he waved at Yun Ruoleng, signalling her to go over.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled sweetly as she sat down opposite of Yun Ruoleng, took down a pen from the pen holder and twirled it in her hands. Her phoenix-like eyes widened as she said, "To be able to obtain the pity of the Regent, chenqie will feel extremely honored."


    "From whom?" Jun Qingshang unhappily knocked her on the head: "Not studying well, learning these things."


    "In the palace, nanny teaches etiquette. As Yun Ruoleng said this, he flipped open the account book in his hands, held onto the pen and quickly dipped it in ink.


    Jun Qingshang felt like lifting a rock to smash his own foot. Who asked him to ask the nanny to teach him?


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly raised his head, and coldly stared at Jun Qingshang, his voice also becoming a bit colder: "What does Your Highness want from me? It''s better to read books! "


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s handsome face darkened, this little girl had become more and more powerful recently, she even had to take care of what he did, it seemed that she really needed to be tidied up. After he finished speaking, Jun Qingshang''s entire body froze, and the look in his eyes towards Yun Ruoleng also changed.


    He didn''t know why, but recently whenever he looked at her, he could imagine how she would look when she was under him. Yun Ruoleng did not know that Jun Qingshang''s brain was filled with filth, but at the moment, she was looking at the thing in her hand with a relaxed expression.


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was being so serious, Jun Qingshang couldn''t help but take a deep breath, and felt that it was time to do something about it. Time flew by just like that. When night came, the two of them walked into the courtyard and returned back to their room, and just happened to see Peach Red and Cui Ying packing their things. Yun Ruoleng curiously looked at the two of them: "What are you doing?"


    "Ruo Er, follow me." Without waiting for Peach Blossom and Cui Ying''s reply, he had already pulled Yun Ruoleng to the other side. Although Yun Ruoleng was puzzled, he did not say much and allowed him to drag the soft couch to the side and sit down.


    Jun Qingshang held her hand and looked at her quietly. Other than reluctance, there was also deep love in his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng''s pupils contracted, a wave of unease struck him, and he carefully opened his mouth to ask: "What happened?"


    "I''m going to the army camp tomorrow to train. I''m afraid I won''t be able to return in a while. You''re at home ¡­"


    "Can I come with you?" Yun Ruoleng held his hand with glistening tears in her eyes.


    "No way!" Jun Qingshang''s expression instantly became much colder, and her gaze also became stern: "I will be at ease if you''re at home!"


    Yun Ruoleng bit her lips and looked at him pitifully. Previously, this technique was very useful, but recently, this expression had become a little ineffective.


    "I said no is fine, the military camps are filled with men, it''s inconvenient for a woman to go. Plus, I''m going there to train, not to fight ¡­"


    "Jun Qingshang, you''re mad at me!" Yun Ruoleng''s face became more and more unsightly, and he directly shook off the hand he was holding.


    Jun Qingshang''s words came to an abrupt stop. His gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng''s fuming little face, and softened a lot as he reached out to hold her small hand once more. "This king is worried, but Ruo Er, this king will not compromise with you on this matter."


    Yun Ruoleng snorted and did not reply. Jun Qingshang thought that she had compromised with him and heaved a sigh of relief.


    On the morning of the next day, Jun Qingshang carefully got off the bed, stood in front of the bed and reluctantly looked at his beloved woman while lowering his head. He gave her a light kiss on her forehead, and said in a small voice: "Wait for my return."


    Although Jun Qingshang''s movements were light, he never would have thought that Yun Ruoleng did not sleep all night just to send him off. Just as Jun Qingshang stepped out of the door, he had already gotten up and put on his clothes, and quickly followed her out. Jun Qingshang did not immediately leave the residence after leaving the room. Instead, he called An Ying over to the study room to discuss some matters. Yun Ruoleng sneakily walked out of the residence, and stood on the steps of the mansion. He looked at the neatly prepared An Ying Guards, and his gaze slightly darkened.


    "Wang-wangfei ¡­"


    "I am only sending you off, your highness." Yun Ruoleng was afraid that he would attract Jun Qingshang by shouting loudly, so she immediately made a silent gesture towards him.


    The people from the An Ying Guards looked at each other, but didn''t say anything. However, the gazes they used to look at Yun Ruoleng were clearly on guard, afraid that she would disappear before their eyes in the blink of an eye.

 C273

    The moment Jun Qingshang walked out of the Palace door, his handsome face constantly changed. "You, you ¡­"


    "I''m just giving it to you." Yun Ruoleng suddenly realised: "You are not going to the battlefield, I going will only affect you."


    After hearing this, Jun Qingshang''s entire heart was finally at ease.


    Jun Qingshang calmed his heart down. He knew that Yun Ruoleng would not lie to him, and since she had thought it through, he didn''t need to worry. Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, rested his chin on her forehead, and lightly kissed her. He said in a low voice: "Wait for my return."


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng forced a smile on her face. This trip would take at least half a month. Although she was not worried that he would be injured, she was worried that he would eat well. Did you sleep well?


    Jun Qingshang suddenly let go of Yun Ruoleng, and said to Uncle Pu who was behind him: "Send Princess Wangfei back to the residence!"


    "Yes sir!" Uncle Pu replied, but just as he was about to step forward, he was stopped by Yun Ruoleng''s cold gaze.


    Yun Ruoleng''s delicate face was already filled with tears. "I''m watching you leave. I''m going back.


    "Alright!" Jun Qingshang looked deeply at Yun Ruoleng, then turned and descended the steps, stepping on the snow while walking on the ground. After seeing his master come, he obediently stopped moving, looking at Yun Ruoleng with his horse eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng forced out a smile and waved: "Let''s go!"


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head, his legs clamped down on the horse''s abdomen, and sensing his master''s orders, Treading on the snow, he rushed forward as though he was flying. Yun Ruoleng stood at the door and watched as the man left. All of his strength seemed to have been sucked out, and if not for An Yue''s support, he probably would have collapsed to the ground.


    "Esteemed wangfei, it''s better to go back when it''s cold outside!" An Yue''s eyes became a lot gentler, but looking at Yun Ruoleng, it was as if her soul had left her body, and her heart tensed up. He couldn''t tell what this feeling was.


    Yun Ruoleng forced himself to nod his head. Uncle Pu, who was at the side, sighed and went along with An Yue to help Yun Ruoleng enter the Duke Palace.


    Peach Red and Cui Ying stood at the entrance of Shang Mo Pavilion and looked around. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng had returned, they immediately went forward to take from Uncle Pu.


    Cui Ying couldn''t help but frown as she helped Yun Ruoleng enter the room. The sky had not lit up at this hour, so she did not notice it when she was at the door.


    "Your highness is only going to train. What do you mean by looking so heartbroken?" Peach Red was very dissatisfied with Yun Ruoleng''s inconsiderate treatment of her body, and even ignored Yun Ruoleng''s identity, directly scolding: "Your highness, did you suffer a loss when you went to train? The Heavenly Awakening War God is an invincible existence in the entire Heavenly Awakening Realm, who would dare not accept that? "


    "Peach Blossom ¡­" Cui Ying stretched out his hands to tug at her pink sleeves, wanting to make her shut up. Peach Blossom also had a temper, she brushed away Cui Ying''s hand and said unhappily: "Miss, I''m not talking about you, you''re so unlucky!"


    "You don''t understand." Yun Ruoleng spoke with a slightly hoarse voice: "Training of the troops means that we will encounter a difficult opponent, which also means that we can fight at any time. This time, to put it nicely, it''s training for the army. Or perhaps, it''s Heaven''s Initiation and Yue Ling''s training before the war. "


    Peach Blossom''s originally angry little face instantly turned surprised. Soon after, her expression also turned ugly. "What you mean is, this trip is possible for us to directly head to the border?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, he seemed to have thought of something, and the corners of his mouth rose: "You are right, I should not be so dejected, am I not out to battle yet?"


    "¡­" The three of them looked at her speechlessly. Previously, they had looked as if they were about to die, but now, they were in high spirits.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t feel that it was strange at all, he suddenly stood up from his position: "All of you leave! I didn''t sleep all night, I was so sleepy. "


    Cui Ying and Tao Hong looked at each other for a moment, then obediently retreated. An Yue did not withdraw, her eyes were filled with concern. Yun Ruoleng waved his hand at him tiredly. "Don''t worry! I''ll be fine. "


    An Yue looked at her again and felt that she was not lying to him, so he nodded and left.


    Maybe she was really sleepy, or maybe she really had figured it out and fell asleep while lying on the bed.


    Peach Blossom and Cui Ying sat in front of the stone table outside the room and started to discuss things. An Yue leaned on the pillar in front of the door while hugging his sword. Tao Hong suddenly stood up and looked at An Yue, then waved her hand at him. Although An Yue really didn''t want to go over, he took a few steps forward when he saw her nervous appearance: "What''s the matter?"


    "An Yue!" Peach Red giggled as she stood in front of him. "My family''s young miss will need your protection in the future. Look at her condition today. I''m afraid she''ll be very busy in the future."


    When An Yue saw her smile, goosebumps rose all over her body. Her expression unconsciously sank.


    "Sigh ¡­" "You ¡­"


    Peach Blossom still wanted to speak, but An Yue had already disappeared in front of her. Peach Blossom was so angry that she stomped her feet, but there was nothing he could do. Who told them not to know any martial arts!


    Jun Qingshang had taken away half of the An Ying Guards in the Duke Palaces, but the Duke Palaces'' defense was even stronger than before. For Yun Ruoleng''s safety, he transferred more than a dozen of his own secret guards, and under the coercion of Jun Jinlong, the Great Sima Yang Xiong had sent twenty people to deal with Yun Ruoleng.


    Jun Qingshang was originally his personal bodyguard, and from that day onwards, he became his "carrier pigeon" with Yun Ruoleng. Everyday, they travelled the streets.


    Fortunately, An Ying did not feel that it was troublesome. After constantly passing down letters for Jun Qingshang, An Yue felt that his skills had increased a lot.


    Yun Ruoleng really lived a leisurely life within the Regent¡¯s Mansion. Every few days, he would run into the Imperial Palace, run to the empress dowager''s side to chat with her, or else he would run to the Great Sima Palace to find Yang Zi Ling and Jun Jingrong to play.


    "Sister Yun, we finally made it out of the mansion, where are we going to play?" Yang Zi Zi grabbed Yun Ruoleng''s arm and shook it.


    Yun Ruoleng immediately rolled his eyes: "Stop shaking me, I was knocked unconscious by you."


    "Oh." Yang Zi Zi did not let go of Yun Ruoleng''s arm, and said while pouting: "Isn''t this exciting! "In the past, going out of the house would have depended on one''s mood, but now, going out will depend on one''s mother''s expression."


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly laughed: "Now that I''m old, my foster mother must want to give you a kiss, that''s why she doesn''t let you run around."


    "Eh? How do you know? " Yang Zi Ling''s face reddened slightly: "How did you know?"

 C274

    "An experienced person." When she mentioned this matter, she suddenly thought of the time she had gotten married. However, the two nanny that the empress dowager had sent over had tormented her to such an extent that it was hard to imagine.


    Yang Zi Zi didn''t seem to notice Yun Ruoleng''s sudden change, she lowered her head, her little face red. She didn''t notice Yun Ruoleng, but Yun Ruoleng noticed her: "Do you already have someone you like?"


    "Huh?" Yang Zi Ling was shocked and her gaze kept on dodging. She waved her hand and said, "N-no."


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows slightly rose, and her exquisite little face leaned a little closer towards Yang Zi Zi. "Really?"


    "En..." Big Sister Yun! " Yang Zi Ling had always been a carefree person, so naturally, she wouldn''t be able to hide anything. When Yun Ruoleng saw her expression, he knew that she just didn''t know who this young miss liked.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed and poked her little face: "Okay okay okay, there''s nothing to be shy about here. Furthermore, if you don''t tell me, how am I supposed to help you?"


    "I ¡­" Yang Zi Ling hesitated for a moment before a trace of attachment appeared in her eyes. "A few days ago, I went to the Prime Minister''s Estate to see a white-clothed young master ¡­"


    "Cough, cough!" Yun Ruoleng coughed lightly, interrupting Yang Zi Zi Ling''s words.


    Yang Zi looked at Yun Ruoleng with a puzzled expression. Yun Ruoleng pouted at her: "Your white-clothed swordsman."


    "Hmm?" Yang Zi followed Yun Ruoleng''s gaze and saw a white clothed Yun Yi coming out of the restaurant. Obviously, the other side saw them too.


    As Yun Yi slowly walked over with Xing Mo, Yang Zi Zi''s little face instantly turned even redder, and her gaze longingly stopped on Yun Yi''s body. Yun Ruoleng bowed slightly: "Sixth brother."


    "Huh?" Without Yun Yi to answer, Yang Zi Zi was so surprised that she forgot to be shy.


    Yun Ruoleng gave a shallow smile, "The sixth young master of the original Minister¡¯s Mansion, Yun Yi, this is the Great Sima pearl in her hand, Yang Zi Zi."


    "Miss Yang." Yun Yi nodded to her, and when his gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng, he could not help but frown, and reprimanded Yun Ruoleng: "The two of you did not bring a servant when you went out."


    "Peach Blossom went shopping." When Yun Ruoleng replied, his gaze landed on Yang Zi Zi Zi Ling: "I brought her with me because she''s more powerful than Peach Blossom, at least I have someone to protect me."


    "Miss Yang is from the General''s House, it''s not strange that she knows how to protect herself." Yun Yi nodded, his gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng instead: "On the other hand, who learnt martial arts from?"


    "I ¡­" Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. What he knew of martial arts was not some secret matter, it was just why was Yun Yi so clear about it, and why would he suspect it?


    Yun Ruoleng became wary, but he did not pursue the matter any further. He nodded to the two of them, "I still have things to do, I''ll let Xing Mo follow you two."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, his expression not very good. Logically speaking, after leaving home for a few years, even if he came back to find out that he knew martial arts, he shouldn''t be curious, after all, being able to change a lot in a few years, but why did he ¡­


    lowered his head and looked at his wrinkled sleeves, and couldn''t help but laugh bitterly: "You''re so uncomfortable, if you continue to twist my clothes, then there''s no need to wear anymore."


    "That ¡­" Yang Zi slightly raised her head and looked at Xing Mo, whose expression hadn''t changed. "Is he just going to follow us like this?"


    Yun Ruoleng unhappily poked her head: "Follow me then! "What''s the big deal?"


    With one more person following her, Yang Zi Zi felt uncomfortable all over her body, and her steps became even more elegant and slow. Yun Ruoleng was dumbstruck by her situation, and really wanted to throw her aside, pretending not to know her.


    Yang Zi Ling was an elegant lady, and her position was such that she couldn''t bear to look at him directly. Although Yun Ruoleng''s expression didn''t change, he kept a smile on his face.


    , who was not in the capital, would naturally be using the number one incense stick as a wife. The three of them walked into the room one after another, and Yun Ruoleng found an excuse to kick Xing Mo out.


    Yang Zi innocently looked at Yun Ruoleng: "Big Sister Yun, what are you laughing about?"


    "Sixth brother has already left. Do you want to show me the lady steps or Xing Mo?" Furthermore, that ''lady step'' of yours ¡­ "Hahaha ¡­" As Yun Ruoleng said this, he couldn''t help but laugh out loud.


    Yang Zi Ling''s little face immediately became pale: "I-I don''t want to either!" I just did it unconsciously in my head. "


    "Sixth Brother and I were very close when we were young, but he was outside for a few years, I don''t know how he was like, so you should be more careful in everything, and not let his appearance overwhelm your brain."


    After saying that, Yun Ruoleng remembered something, and quickly said: "He is the Martial Union Lord, I believe his character is not too bad, but will his foster mother agree to give you to a person from the martial arts world?"


    "Mother shouldn''t object!" Yang Zi Ling hesitated a little, she was afraid that her mother wouldn''t easily agree to this either.


    Jun JinRong was the princess, and Yang Xiong was the emissary of today. He was in a high position, so he probably didn''t think much of a martial artist! Even if he was the Prime Minister''s nephew.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the loneliness in Yang Zi Zi''s eyes, and sighed lightly: "Perhaps not as complicated as I thought. He is still Young Master Luo''s cousin after all, and is also the Sixth Young Master of the former Minister¡¯s Mansion.


    Yang Zi Zi seemed to see hope, and her eyes lit up: "Right! Mother would probably not object. "


    The women who fell in love were idiots, and the current Yang Zi Zi was a typical example. However, she was curious how the girl saw Sixth Brother as? Of course, what she suspected was not that Yun Yi was not good-looking.


    Peach Blossom carried a few bags of items to the first incense stick, just in time to see Xing Mo standing at the doorway. Peach Blossom curiously looked at him and greeted him, "Big Brother Xing, you''re here too?"


    "Under orders to protect Seventh Miss." The simple change in words allowed Peach Blossom to understand that the Sixth Gongzi was not around. She thought for a while, then nodded and knocked on the door.


    "Come in." Yun Ruoleng and Yang Zi Zi Ling were already seated, upon hearing the knock, Yun Ruoleng knew that Peach Blossom had returned.


    Sure enough, the door was pushed open, and Peach Blossom who was carrying bags walked in. She looked at the two masters and said proudly, "Miss, I bought a lot of nuts that you liked."


    Yang Zi looked at Yun Ruoleng suspiciously, as if it was the first time hearing about it. "You like eating nuts?"


    Yun Ruoleng smiled but did not reply, her bright eyes looking at the thing in the pink hand. Peach Red handed the things over to Yun Ruoleng, looked around, and then slowly spoke out: "This servant has asked for the details, yesterday, there were indeed a few outsiders that came to investigate about the Prince''s Mansion, but that group of people were rather secretive, we might not be able to find anything after a while if we investigate."

 C275

    "Has there been any news from An Yue''s side?" Yun Ruoleng lightly sipped the tea on the table. "We''ll talk about it when he comes back."


    "Yes."


    "What are you talking about?" Yang Zi Ling''s palm-sized face was filled with doubt, her watery eyes curiously looking at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at her, then took out a piece of dried fruit from his bag and stuffed it into Yang Zi Zi Ling''s mouth: "Nothing."


    Was Yun Ruoleng''s nervous expression really nothing? Yang Zi Zi expressed that she did not believe it, but she did not pursue it either.


    After Peach Red had finished speaking, she continued, "The Prince wrote this morning saying that he will return from his stay here in the evening for two days."


    Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned, "He treated the Duke Palace as an inn! "I was staying for a few days."


    Peach Red pursed her lips and did not continue speaking. However, the smile in her eyes was not hidden from beginning to end. The young lady of her house had said the wrong thing, and she had been talking a lot about herself during this period of time.


    After eating lunch with the first class incense, Yang Zi Ling was brought back to the Duke Palace by the people sent by Yang Xiong. On the way back, the only ones left were Yun Ruoleng and Peach Blossom. Under the enthusiastic escort of the waiter, the two walked out of the room with a pint of incense. The streets were bustling as before, and there was an endless stream of hawking noises coming from the stalls. It was as if the scene was a picture of the river in the clear.


    "Miss, it''s time for us to go back." Peach Red warns carefully, afraid that she will change her mind.


    Yun Ruoleng only nodded, without saying a word, he immediately headed towards the direction of the Duke Palace. As he walked, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, his gaze landing on a vendor that was buying lanterns.


    "What does Miss need?" The packman was excited when he saw Yun Ruoleng staring at him, thinking that Yun Ruoleng needed a lantern.


    Yun Ruoleng smiled at him, turned and continued walking, this time he walked even faster. Tao Hong looked at the trader then looked at Yun Ruoleng. A question arose in her heart as she quickly chased after him.


    "We''re being followed." Yun Ruoleng''s footsteps were light and swift, and Peach Blossom was unable to catch up to her as she jogged to her side.


    "Huh?" The moment Peach Blossom heard this, her expression drastically changed.


    "You''re not allowed to look behind!" Yun Ruoleng stopped Peach Blossom''s actions and said: "They just caught up, and have not moved yet. If you like them, then let them follow! "Don''t alert the enemy."


    Peach Blossom was extremely regretful. She should not have believed Yun Ruoleng''s words and chased Xing Mo away. What if this group of people attacked them instead? Peach Blossom didn''t believe that she had the ability to protect herself.


    Yun Ruoleng was not an idiot, he naturally would not easily take action against them, and after walking a few rounds around the street, he arrived at the entrance of the Jing Zhao Yin Mansion. The corner of Peach Blossom''s mouth twitched a few times as she looked at the large signboard.


    "Who is it?" The guard standing at the door snapped.


    Yun Ruoleng took off an identity plate from Peach Blossom''s body and handed it over to the guard. The guard respectfully returned it to Yun Ruoleng after looking at it: "Please wait, this subordinate will go inform the old master right away."


    Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded, as if he remembered something, and muttered to the guard. The guard''s gaze fell on a spot, and he nodded.


    Peach Blossom and Yun Ruoleng were immediately invited into the Jing Zhao Yin''s mansion, the guards just now led a group of people out quickly, and in a short while, the people following them were all brought back.


    Yun Ruoleng stood at the entrance of the mansion and looked at the structure of the Jing Zhao Yin''s mansion carefully. Although it was not big, he could feel the warmth.


    "Miss, you ¡­ "Incredible." Peach Red looked at the person who was escorted back and could not help but give Yun Ruoleng a big thumbs up.


    "You flatter me!" Yun Ruoleng did not have any intention to refuse, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, with a smile that was not a smile he looked at the person who was being escorted back: "Who sent you to follow him?"


    "Did you misunderstand something? We are just commoners passing by. How did we become trackers? " One of them had a full beard, while the other had a scar on his face. Yun Ruoleng looked at the clothes they were wearing and suddenly laughed.


    The two big sized fellows felt their hairs stand on end when they heard the laughter, and the eyes that they looked at Yun Ruoleng with were a little panicked. Yun Ruoleng slightly tilted his head. "It''s already not important who sent you guys, but you have to pay a price to follow this wangfei. Go back and tell your master, this wangfei doesn''t like playing hide-and-seek.


    The guard and Peach Blossom did not understand what Yun Ruoleng was saying, but the look in their eyes changed into one of fear. Fortunately, the two of them were smart and didn''t say much.


    Yun Ruoleng did not punish them, and just waved them off. After they left, Peach Blossom could no longer resist asking, "Miss, aren''t you afraid of their revenge?"


    "Do they dare?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, and waved to the guards: "Thank you for your trouble today, Peach Blossom!"


    "Oh!" Peach Blossom took out a stack of silver notes, each worth a hundred silver taels. She handed them over to the others, "Everyone, please buy some wine to drink."


    The guards looked at the number on their hands and were shocked. They all knew that the rich gave a lot of rewards, but after seeing the wangfei make a move, they understood that she was truly generous.


    For Yun Ruoleng''s safety, the guards were split into two groups. One group continued to stand guard, and the other sent Yun Ruoleng and Peach Blossom back to the Regent¡¯s Mansion.


    After Jun Qingshang returned to the Duke Palace after leaving the capital for half a month, it wasn''t easy for him to find out that his wife wasn''t present. After Jun Qingshang asked Uncle Pu, he was both angry and amused, so he didn''t stay long and directly went to the palace to discuss things with Jun Rushi.


    Seeing that Jun Qingshang had left, Uncle Pu immediately sent people to look for him. His wife had been running out the house recently, and if news of his return got out that she was not even at home, what would happen then?


    He did not know if it was because of their mutual understanding, but Yun Ruoleng could see Treading on Snow from afar. It was clear that Treading on Snow also saw him, and happily galloped over to him. Tao Hong was shocked, she grabbed Yun Ruoleng and anxiously leaned on the side of the road, her gaze fiercely staring at Treading on the snow that was stopped in front of them: "Are you crazy!"


    "Alright!" Yun Ruoleng laughed and looked at Peach Blossom who was trying to protect herself: "Treading on the snow also feels excited about us, let''s go in first!"


    "Yes sir!" Peach Blossom didn''t forget to glare at Treading Snow before she left. Treading on the snow felt the angry gaze, proudly raising the horse''s head, as if to say: "What can you do to me?"


    Yun Ruoleng patted its head and laughed, then pulled its reins towards the door. Coincidentally, Jun Qingshang came out of the house at this time, and seeing the veiled lady, he was first startled, then his expression became serious: "You''re bringing Peach Blossom along?"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng walked up the stairs, without waiting for him to curse, "An Yue has been arranged to run some errands, and may be back later."


    "Are you alright?" Jun Qingshang carefully sized up the girl in front of him, he saw that other than her becoming thinner, there was no other change. Even so, Jun Qingshang couldn''t help but frown a little.

 C276

    Yun Ruoleng''s soft hands slowly caressed Zhang Jun''s handsome face, and her delicate eyebrows knitted together slightly: "Why are you so skinny now?"


    "It''s normal to lose weight in the military camp, but why have you lost weight in the manor?" Seeing her concern for him, Jun Qingshang was not the least bit moved. Instead, he was confused and angry: "Did someone take advantage of when I''m no longer making things difficult for you?"


    "Huh?" Yun Ruoleng''s mist-covered phoenix eyes looked at Jun Qingshang in surprise: "Why do you think that?"


    Jun Qingshang understood from her expression that this girl was not someone who would suffer a loss. Who would dare to provoke her?


    When he thought about this, Jun Qingshang''s brows could not help but tighten: "I was overthinking it. Oh right, I will head into the palace first. I''ll talk about this matter when I return."


    "Sigh ¡­" had not even opened his mouth when Jun Qingshang had already left in a hurry. He flew out onto the snowy ground with extreme intelligence, and seeing''s figure on the horse, he sighed, putting all the words in his heart once again.


    In a courtyard at the border of the capital, a man dressed in red in cinnabar clothes stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the top of the locust tree with empty eyes. Behind him were two men in black kneeling on the ground, not saying a word.


    "Did we mess things up?" The man withdrew his gaze and turned around, revealing a face that resembled a woman''s. That''s right, this person was the Yue Ling Phoenix Diagram.


    The two kneeling on the ground felt a sense of pressure, causing their hearts to tighten and their breathing to become labored.


    The man with a scar on his face forced himself to open his mouth, "She has already guessed that you have come to the capital."


    "She really is a smart woman." "Phoenix Diagram muttered to himself." "Since it''s like this, there''s nothing much to hide. I wonder what kind of surprise this little girl will bring me."


    The two people who were kneeling looked at each other, looking at their master in disbelief. Huang Tu did not make things difficult for the two, and just waved his hand, indicating that they should leave first.


    The phoenix image continued to stand under the banyan tree, and the expression on its face became more solemn. It seemed that it would be difficult to take her away from here, and Jun Qingshang wondered if he had returned.


    Furthermore, after Yun Ruoleng returned to the residence, she quickly ordered people to check on the location of the Phoenix Map. She was not an idiot, so she naturally would not let the tigers back into the mountain.


    After Uncle Pu received Yun Ruoleng''s order, his face immediately became ugly. This Yue Ling Emperor''s Heaven Awakening actually went as far as to hide, this must be told to the Duke, Uncle Po thought that Yun Ruoleng had indeed done the same.


    Yun Ruoleng returned back to the courtyard and changed into a set of short training robes. He let Peach Blossom tie her hair and put on a simple ponytail.


    "Miss, are you going out?" Peach Red couldn''t help but ask after putting the jade hairpin into her bun.


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, then laughed: "I just wanted to practice my sword in the courtyard, there''s no other meaning."


    Peach Blossom seemed to have calmed down after hearing that. She heaved a sigh of relief and said, "This servant will prepare some refreshments. If you are tired, eat some good food to fill your stomach."


    Hm? Yun Ruoleng looked at Peach Blossom doubtfully: "Is there going to be a welcoming feast tonight?"


    "Your highness has come back to instruct everyone to prepare. I presume that there will be a welcoming banquet!" Peach Blossom pursed her lips and laughed: "Young miss might have gone out on a trip and come back muddleheaded. Even if the Feast Prince isn''t handling it, you should still do it! Although there is only one master in the Palace, the form must not be lacking. "


    Yun Ruoleng was speechless. He had to go out to get a welcoming feast when he came back, why didn''t he come back a while ago? Furthermore, every time he returned, there would be more. Wouldn''t that mean that the monthly expenses would be increased by several times?


    Yun Ruoleng''s mind suddenly flashed with many questions, in the end he still explained to Peach Blossom: I need this welcoming feast, but it''s not too complicated, it''s just a formality.


    Peach Blossom wanted to retort but was stopped by the sharp gaze. She could only reply and obediently leave.


    After Jun Qingshang entered the palace, he did not return for a few hours. Yun Ruoleng continued to wave the flexible sword in his hand around the courtyard, the movements of his hands and his footsteps became more practiced. After she used her last move, Uncle Pu ran back into the courtyard in a hurry with a smile still on his face. Yun Ruoleng kept the flexible sword and took the handkerchief from her and wiped the sweat off his face: "How is Uncle Pu?"


    "That matter has not been settled, but the prince has returned." Uncle Po was very excited. This couple was separated from time to time by matters, and after a few days, the prince had returned for an unknown period of time. That was why Uncle Po was so excited.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, he threw the sword in his hand to Uncle Pu and ran. Uncle Pu was stunned, then chased after him with his sword, which was followed by Peach Blossom.


    Jun Qingshang passed the rein in his hand to the guard beside him, and slowly walked into the Duke Palace with his hands behind his back. Just as he walked up the stairs, he saw a grey-white figure pounce towards him. Jun Qingshang frowned, and raised his hand to catch the figure, as he looked at the person in his arms with a face full of smiles: "Do you miss this king?"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng did not argue, her slender wrists hugging onto Jun Qingshang''s neck, she giggled and said.


    A smile also appeared on Jun Qingshang''s handsome face. Her forehead was pressed against hers: "What are you thinking?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s face changed slightly as she punched Jun Qingshang on the chest: "Bastard!"


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s bashful look, Jun Qingshang laughed out loud, Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly and wanted to struggle free from his embrace, but Jun Qingshang held on tightly, unwilling to let go.


    Seeing the two of them getting close to each other at the door, Uncle Pu quickly cut them off. "Prince, you should accompany Princess Hua-jie inside!"


    Only then did Yun Ruoleng remember that he was still at the door, and his small face immediately became as ripe as a prawn. Jun Qingshang lowered his head and pressed a kiss on Yun Ruoleng''s forehead, and when Yun Ruoleng was not paying attention, he carried her on his shoulder and walked into the Duke Palace.


    Ah!" Yun Ruo cried out in shock as she pounded Jun Qingsheng''s back with her fist, "Put me down! There are still so many people watching!


    Jun Qingshang felt that Yun Ruoleng hitting his back was like thumping his back, it did not hurt at all, instead it felt extremely comfortable.


    Would the Regent listen to anyone? It was obvious that he would not, to the point that after Yun Ruoleng had knocked for so long, his hands were sore, yet he did not get the result he wanted. He simply carried her into the room and placed her on the bed.


    "Jun Qingshang, if you come again, I won''t be polite!" Yun Ruoleng shouted, her face still red to the point of blood dripping. This man was the brain of a bug, he was not afraid of being laughed at for doing such a thing in broad daylight.

 C277

    It was as if Jun Qingshang already knew that Yun Ruoleng would reject him, and thus, he smirked as he placed his hands on the sides of Yun Ruoleng''s head. "This king has only confirmed it, what are you afraid of?"


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng pouted her small mouth. The man was even more cunning, he did not forget to scam her even when he wanted to do that kind of thing. When Yun Ruoleng thought about this, he immediately became angry, and he turned his head and bit his arm.


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly, and used one hand to quickly pinch Yun Ruoleng''s chin to make her let go of it. He placed his index finger in her mouth and gently caressed her white teeth: "This bite of yours is not afraid of my teeth collapsing."


    Yun Ruoleng was not polite, he could not force his hand and bit his finger, but he did not use much strength. Jun Qingshang frowned, and swiped his thumb across her lips, the smile on his face became even more demonic.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly realized something, and raised his hand to wave the finger on his lips: "You ¡­"


    "It''s over." Jun Qingshang rubbed Yun Ruoleng''s fluffy head: "Seeing you slim down, this king''s heart hurts so much, I''ll have to give you a big boost when I get back."


    Yun Ruoleng pouted her small mouth and muttered unhappily: "I have clearly gained a bit of weight, even mother say I have gained weight."


    "Muhou''s eyesight isn''t good!" Jun Qingshang snorted lightly, not saying anything about his mother''s guilt at all. He pushed a few strands of hair away from her forehead and said, "Now that you are so skinny, you should go out and think that this duke has treated you unfairly!"


    Yun Ruoleng helplessly glared at her, and then recalled what had happened today and quickly explained everything to Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang only frowned in the beginning, but then his expression became ugly: "The Phoenix Diagram ran to the sky, we do not know! It seems like he really does have something up his sleeves! "


    "I''ve already sent someone to investigate." Yun Ruoleng paused, her voice suddenly somewhat dejected: "I was afraid that he would do something that would affect the Heaven''s Enlightenment, so I decided to alert him, I don''t know if I can still catch him."


    "He hasn''t even been here for a few days." A smile appeared on Jun Qingshang''s face, his bony fingers continued to play with Yun Ruoleng''s little hands: "You just need to take care of yourself, and don''t use your Shaman Energy anymore."


    "Why?" Yun Ruoleng believed that Jun Qingshang did everything with his intentions, but she did not understand. Now that the world was in chaos, if she did not use her power, how could she help him?


    Jun Qingshang stretched out his hand and pressed Yun Ruoleng''s head against her chest. The powerful heartbeat entered Yun Ruoleng''s ears, and she listened with incomparable relief.


    "There are some things I''m not sure of, but remember what I said."


    After a long while, Jun Qingshang slowly spoke with a trembling voice, as if he was afraid of something. Yun Ruoleng only felt safe in his arms.


    He originally wanted to abduct Yun Ruoleng while Jun Qingshang was still away from the capital, but he was discovered as soon as he arrived. This result told him that he was destined to fail this time.


    Phoenix Diagram brought a portion of its dark guards and left the capital overnight. It was as if he came to the capital and left silently.


    The next morning, Yun Ruoleng woke up to find himself lying on a strong and forceful arm. Feeling the other party''s warmth, he lazily groaned. Jun Qingshang had already woken up, seeing how satisfied the person in his embrace was, and how his lover was getting up early in the morning, the smile on Jun Qingshang''s face became even more obvious, and the arm around Yun Ruoleng''s waist could not help but tighten.


    "You''re awake?" Yun Ruoleng asked in astonishment. His voice was a little dazed, as if he had not woken up yet.


    Jun Qingshang''s charming beautiful eyes just happened to see a pair of clear, hidden, harmless eyes, and felt like she was half a beat slower in her heart. Yun Ruoleng cupped his hands in her embrace and finally became a little more clear-headed. "The people I sent last night should have returned.


    "Alright!" Jun Qingshang took a deep breath, suppressed Chen Wen, and let go of Yun Ruoleng''s arms. He took a set of clothes from the place where he placed the clothes, and put it on himself, then got up.


    After Jun Qingshang got up and dressed up, he quickly helped Yun Ruoleng get dressed. At the beginning, when Jun Qingshang did this, he was rather unfamiliar with it, but taking off his clothes was a few times faster than putting on clothes. Now, the speed of the both of them was comparable.


    Of course, these words could only be said in his heart. If Jun Qingshang heard it, he might even say something that would cause his heart to blush.


    After Jun Qingshang tidied up Yun Ruoleng''s body, he had even specially done a bun for her. Even though it was the simplest kind, Yun Ruoleng was still very happy.


    "Prince, Princess, they came back, but they were injured." Just as Yun Ruoleng and were about to leave, they heard An Ying''s low voice coming from outside the door.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang''s brows instantly knitted together, and their expressions became somewhat ugly. Yun Ruoleng''s complexion looked even worse than Jun Qingshang''s, and angrily said: "That bastard Huang Tu, what exactly do you want!"


    Jun Qingshang would also be suspicious too, the act of rousing the grass and alerting the snake would not cause a fight between the two parties. Someone who could come and go freely in the capital and could even injure him, Huang Tu''s goal in coming here might not be simple!


    "Pass down the order, the entire city is on guard!" Have the defense camp increase their patrols and send troops to search for suspicious people! " Jun Qingshang''s face was ashen, the grip around his body had loosened and tightened.


    An Ying acknowledged, and quickly disappeared from the room. Yun Ruoleng held onto Jun Qingshang, barely suppressing the anger in his heart, and said: "I''m afraid we won''t be able to search them, let''s increase our patrols!"


    Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng, and suddenly laughed: "If I do not remove the tumor that he left behind, it will be even harder to take care of him."


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows could not help but knit together slightly. Although the Phoenix Diagram was an opponent worthy of respect, he should still take care of it if he were to run to such a quiet place like the capital.


    Yun Ruoleng did not try to dissuade her anymore, and the expression on her face became much calmer. As long as she was safe, Jun Qingshang would be free to take care of the Phoenix Diagram. Therefore, the appearance of the Phoenix Diagram made Yun Ruoleng even more determined and serious in his cultivation.


    The passage to the Phoenix Courtyard directly left the city. It was not in the center of the city so walking under the ground was the safest option. After exiting the capital, he got into a carriage and headed straight for Yue Ling without the slightest intention to stay.


    Sooner or later, he would return here, and he would return here in the most noble manner possible. This time, he only escaped for the sake of the future. The next time they met ¡­ The corner of Huang Tu''s mouth raised slightly: Jun Qingshang, are you ready?


    In a blink of an eye, seven days had passed. The Yue Ling people living in the capital city were frightened by Jun Qingshang''s order and did not dare to move.

 C278

    Yun Ruoleng was sitting upright on the soft couch, immersed in his cultivation, when he suddenly felt a surge of spirit energy, his brows knitted slightly, and then his spirit energy became even stronger, causing him to suddenly open his eyes, he stood up and walked out, his face pale white, as though he was sick.


    Peach Blossom walked in with a red lacquer tray. Seeing her expression, she quickly supported her and asked, "Miss, what''s wrong?"


    "Who was there just now?" Yun Ruoleng supported himself with much difficulty, but the hair on his forehead was already wet. It could be seen how much pressure she was facing right now.


    Peach Blossom''s eyebrows slightly frowned as she looked around in confusion. She did not find any traces of anyone coming so she shook her head and replied, "No one came!"


    "No one came?" Yun Ruoleng, with Peach Blossom''s support, sat in front of the table and took a deep breath. Only then did he suppress the spirit energy that was about to explode from within his body: "Just now, I was disturbed by a huge wave of spirit energy.


    "Ah!?" Peach Blossom cried out in alarm, "Wouldn''t the Prince''s Mansion be in danger then!"


    "What did that damned girl say?" Yun Ruoleng glared at her unhappily. Although that person was very strong, he had not come out. This showed that he was still somewhat afraid of this Duke Palace. Yun Ruoleng was sure that the other party was not a Dark Mage, but a Magus with extremely pure magic power.


    "Eh ¡­" Peach Blossom was frightened stiff by Yun Ruoleng''s cold gaze. She could not help but shrink her head: "Miss, are you feeling better now? Do you want to go back to bed and lie down for a while? "


    Yun Ruoleng closed his eyes and slowly converted the spiritual energy in his body into magic power. Only then did his complexion improve, and Peach Blossom who was standing by the side finally heaved a sigh of relief: "It''s good as long as little miss is fine.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression turned cold, and looked at Peach Blossom with warning: "You are not allowed to tell anyone about this."


    "Is... "Yes." Tao Hong was so scared of Yun Ruoleng that she did not dare refute him, and nodded her head to remember.


    Yun Ruoleng waved his hands towards Peach Blossom. Although the spirit qi in his body had been converted, but because the spirit qi had rampaged through his body earlier, it had caused some damage to his meridians. In order to not let Peach Blossom but heart, can only send her out now.


    Although Peach Blossom was worried, seeing that her expression was much better than before, she didn''t stay any longer and left.


    The moment Peach Blossom left, Yun Ruoleng quickly covered his chest, the pain made her face turn even paler. Everything that happened just now was just an illusion, if Peach Blossom saw the current Yun Ruoleng, she would definitely not leave.


    Yun Ruoleng forced himself to move to the side of the bed and sat down, then he quickly used the Wu Qi around his body to repair the injuries on his meridians.


    In the courtyard, Peach Blossom was pacing back and forth at the entrance. When Cui Ying, who was carrying tea over saw her anxious look, and took a look at the tightly shut door, he could not help but ask: "Why are you outside?"


    Peach Red''s footsteps paused, and as if she had seen her savior, she quickly took the tray from her hands, and whispered: "Miss seems to be sick, quickly ask the doctor to take a look for her. Remember, you must be careful, and don''t let His Highness find out."


    "Hmm?" Cui Ying''s gaze darkened, and her small face immediately became more unsightly. "Why don''t you go yourself?"


    "The lady chased me out, of course she didn''t want others to know! But her face just now was frighteningly pale. You''re the only one who can do it now. "


    Chased out? Cui Ying looked at Peach Blossom carefully, seeing that she was not pretending to be anxious, he nodded his head: "Then you have to take care of Young miss, I will be back in a while."


    "Don''t worry!" Peach Red nodded confidently. Actually, it was fine to take good care of her with uncertainty in her heart, but how could she take good care of her with the door closed?


    After Yun Ruoleng circulated the Shaman Energy in his body for a week, his body felt much more comfortable. The meridians that were wounded just now were almost healed as well, to prevent others from worrying, he reluctantly called Peach Blossom in.


    Peach Red never thought that her young miss would let her in so quickly. Of course, she did not forget Yun Ruoleng''s weak look and closed the door the moment she entered the room. She was afraid that something might leak out and worsen her condition.


    With regards to Peach Blossom''s caution, Yun Ruoleng nodded his head in satisfaction. Peach Blossom had been by his side for almost a year already, although he did not learn anything else, he did learn how to be cautious.


    "You don''t have to worry about that." Yun Ruoleng took the hot tea that was handed over by Peach Blossom and gently sipped: "I''m already fine, just a sign of my cultivation going berserk just now, but luckily I stopped cultivating in time."


    Peach Blossom slightly frowned, looking at how, in the next moment, someone''s cultivation went berserk. Just as she wanted to ask, she heard urgent footsteps. Yun Ruoleng''s gaze slightly darkened when she saw Peach Blossom. Peach Blossom shrugged, indicating that she didn''t know. Yun Ruoleng did not blame Peach Blossom, because she saw that the person who came in was none other than Cui Ying that girl.


    Behind Cui Ying was an old man with a white beard. On his body hung a case, although the box was not big, it looked very heavy. Yun Ruoleng didn''t even need to ask to know who this man was. He smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking that this girl would never listen to what he had to say, but Cui Ying had already gone to find a doctor.


    "Miss, I heard you weren''t feeling well, so I went to look for a doctor." Cui Ying did not call her "Princess Yun Ruoleng" because he was afraid that would leak out the truth.


    Hearing Cui Ying''s words, Yun Ruoleng nodded his head in satisfaction: "I''m slightly injured, and I''m fine."


    "That won''t do!" Peach Blossom immediately became excited, "Miss, if anything happens, this servant cannot afford it."


    "You don''t seem to be suffering from external injuries?" The doctor had already placed the medicine box on the table, and his eyes fell upon Yun Ruoleng''s pale face. His aged face froze, as if he could see through everything on her face, and asked: "You know him?"


    "Who is it?" Yun Ruoleng was curious, the doctor was looking at him like this, feeling uncomfortable all over. His tone was naturally not very good either.


    "The Master of the House of Death? The continent''s supreme Magus, Black Robe. "


    The doctor''s words made Yun Ruoleng''s entire face tighten into a line, his almond-shaped eyes slightly narrowed, as if he wanted to see through.


    The doctor felt as if his entire body had been locked in place, and a wave of cold air emanated from the soles of his feet. The powerful aura caused Peach Blossom to shudder and look at the doctor. "Who are you?"


    The doctor was startled, he stroked his white beard and laughed, then looked at Yun Ruoleng and said: "Since he did not tell you, I will not tell you. Don''t worry, I will not harm you."


    "If you don''t even tell me who you are, how can I be at ease?" Yun Ruoleng''s cold voice filled with killing intent suddenly came out.

 C279

    He waved his hands towards Yun Ruoleng, and spoke with incomparable melancholy: "Who I am isn''t important, but I know who you are, and your identity is far more than just this empress dowager. You just need to remember, this old man, like Black Robe, will tell you everything."


    The aura on Yun Ruoleng''s body slowly quieted down, and his gaze became gentler as well. She was very smart, if the other party was not willing to reveal it, then it would mean that he would not say anything more. Yun Ruoleng felt that the other party did not have any intent to harm him, so he did not say anything more.


    "Take my pulse!" Yun Ruoleng threw up his sleeves, revealing his fair and jade-like wrist. Peach Blossom quickly covered her wrist with a handkerchief, in case there was any physical contact with her.


    His blurry gaze landed on Yun Ruoleng''s face and he sighed: "Your recovery ability is not bad, this kind of internal injury will not affect you, it''s just that there are too many impurities in your body, I''ll help you prescribe a set of medicine, after using it, you will practice in 40 ¨C 50 degrees of hot water for an hour, once a day will be fine, you can look for me three days later."


    With that, the doctor walked to the front of the table and sat down. Cui Ying had already prepared a pen and paper for him to read. His movements were extremely quick, and he wrote down the prescription. After writing it down, he did not stay any longer, and left the Regent¡¯s Mansion with Cui Ying.


    Tao Hong stood by Yun Ruoleng''s side, her face obviously did not look good, because the words of the doctor just now made her feel extremely uncomfortable.


    Yun Ruoleng took a sip of the tea in the cup of water on the table, then raised his head and said to Peach Blossom, "I''ve already guessed a few things from Black Robe, but without an accurate answer, I don''t dare to be sure."


    "Miss, what did you guess?" Peach red for a moment, feeling that she had overstepped her limits, she lowered her head in panic.


    Yun Ruoleng did not really blame her.


    "Yes." Peach Blossom only felt that today''s young miss had become very strange, and her entire demeanor had become a lot colder.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned on the bed and thought about what had just happened. The way the doctor looked at him was different from the look in Black Robe''s eyes. Black Robe viewed him as someone else, but this doctor was not.


    The word ''respect'' flashed across Yun Ruoleng''s mind, and he was startled when he heard it. He became even more doubtful about the words "you are not just a Regent Royal Consort". What does he mean by this?


    As for the other side, the doctor who came out from the Regent¡¯s Mansion with the medicinal case in hand didn''t walk too far away, and stopped at the place where the Regent¡¯s Mansion was close to the swastika. His gaze fell upon the high walls, and just stood there silently for a long time before leaving.


    Due to Yun Ruoleng''s mysterious injuries, everyone in the courtyard was panicking. Peach Blossom and Cui Ying stood at the door to Yun Ruoleng''s room and occasionally glanced at the courtyard door.


    An Yue appeared in front of them in a flash, looking at the two of them with a serious expression, he asked: "I''m going out, what happened?"


    Peach Blossom and Cui Ying really wanted to say no, but the expression on their face betrayed their true feelings. An Yue was not stupid, and her sharp eyes swept over the two of them: "You better speak the truth, or else I won''t be able to protect you two."


    Peach Blossom and Cui Ying trembled. Thinking about the strong Regent, they had no choice but to compromise and discuss this with An Yue.


    When An Yue found out about this, his expression changed again and again: "Don''t tell this to your highness, otherwise it will affect his mood."


    The three of them reached an agreement and suppressed the matter. During the night, when Jun Qingshang returned, he coincidentally met Yun Ruoleng drinking medicine, so Jun Qingshang who was in the dark asked curiously: "Is Ruo Er sick?"


    "When I was cultivating, I accidentally damaged my meridians. The doctor prescribed a pill, and once I take it, I''ll be fine." Yun Ruoleng''s face was still pale, but he was no longer as weak as he was a few hours ago.


    Jun Qingshang''s face became ugly, his gaze landed on the two servant girls who were serving Yun Ruoleng: "How are you two doing it?"


    "How can this be blamed on them?" Trembling, the two little girls wanted to reply, but Yun Ruoleng beat them to it and said, "It''s not normal for me to break through bottlenecks and go berserk. "Although I failed this time, I definitely won''t fail the next time."


    After Yun Ruoleng finished the soup in one gulp, he gently held onto Jun Qingshang''s arm.


    As Yun Ruoleng asked this, the initially worried Jun Qingshang''s attention was immediately diverted away. Lowering his head to whisper into Yun Ruoleng''s ear, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up: "Really?"


    "Really." Jun Qingshang rubbed his hairy head: "Do you want to take a look?"


    "This thing is great. If you don''t look at it now, I''m afraid you won''t be able to calm your emotions." Yun Ruoleng said, and quickly entangled Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang held Yun Ruoleng''s soft hands and walked towards the study room. As they walked, they chatted about what had happened today. Yun Ruoleng did not speak, and only listened seriously.


    It turned out that Jun Qingshang had not been idling since he left the Duke Palaces and had arranged for people to search for people who had hidden their Yue Ling. During this period of time, the danger was naturally not small, but the harvest was not small either.


    After Yun Ruoleng finished listening to the process, he couldn''t help but break out in a cold sweat for Jun Qingshang. "We''ve removed his informants here, what about the Yue Ling?"


    It was impossible for the Phoenix Diagram to not think of what they could think of.


    If he hadn''t thought of it, then he would not have been able to endure for so many years.


    Jun Qingshang gave a mysterious smile but did not answer. Being able to see him in such a state, Yun Ruoleng was relieved, she held onto Jun Qingshang even more tightly. She believed in this man''s scheme, if she were to return now, she would regret it for the rest of her life!


    After a few days of travelling, the carriage of the Phoenix Diagram had already reached the border of Yue Ling and Heaven''s Enlightenment. This was not the Death Canyon, but a sea area, and every time he came here, he would take a detour back. This way, he would not only be safe, but also be able to observe the state of Heaven''s Enlightenment along the river.


    On the deck, Huang Tu received the carrier pigeon that had just come from the capital, his charming face became much gloomier. His gaze coldly landed on Yu Yang who was beside him: "What''s going on!"


    "We have already pulled out a third of the spies we planted in the Heavenly Awakening Realm, and a portion of them are still in unimportant positions. As for the people we arranged to get rid of, we didn''t catch any of them, they are all insignificant people."


    As Yu Yang reported, he felt the surrounding temperature constantly drop. After he finished speaking about the entire matter, he clearly saw that Huang Tu''s injured letter had turned into ashes. His heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously raised his hand to his neck silently.

 C280

    Huang Tu sneered: "Very good! Jun Qingshang, oh Jun Qingshang, no matter how strong you are, you still have a weakness. "


    He seemed to be talking to himself, but he also seemed to be listening to Yu Yang''s orders. For a moment, Yu Yang didn''t know whether he should leave or not. Huang Tu leaned against the imperial concubine''s chair, one hand holding a cup of tea while the other held a book. He looked relaxed, but in reality, he had been staring at a certain spot for a long time already.


    "Mistress, Heaven''s Initiation seems to have stopped." Yu Yang passed the daily message to the Phoenix Diagram. Although they were getting further and further away from Heaven''s Enlightenment City, they were still able to receive the final shocking news every day. The bad news had been spreading nonstop for the past few days, making him extremely busy. If he wanted to evacuate the entire capital, it was as if it was sealed off; there was no way he could.


    But now, Jun Qingshang had suddenly stopped his search.


    "What do they want to do?" Huang Tu stroked his chin, his face showed that he did not feel sorrowful at having lost so many spies, but instead started to think of a way to deal with Jun Qingshang''s next round of attacks.


    Yu Yang was a simple-minded type with well-developed limbs, after hearing Phoenix Diagram''s question he directly pretended not to hear it, even if he heard it he wouldn''t understand how to deal with it.


    After pondering for a moment, the Phoenix Diagram put down the thing in its hand. Its demonic phoenix eyes slightly perked up: "He wanted to use that group of people to create false information for me, heh! Jun Qingshang is indeed worthy of being my opponent. "


    Although Yu Yang did not understand those twisted and twisted things, he could still understand the meaning of the Phoenix Diagram. However, most of the time, he would listen to the tone and judge.


    After Huang Tu whispered a few words into Yu Yang''s ear, Yu Yang nodded. From start to finish, his face was extremely stiff, and even his eyes were not lively.


    Within the Regent¡¯s Mansion, the couple sat facing each other. There was a thick stack of books on the stone table in front of them, but it couldn''t stop them from passing on their feelings to each other. Yun Ruoleng took a sip of his tea gracefully: "Qing Xin, do you think that this Phoenix Diagram will cause a huge commotion and start a war directly?"


    "As long as he''s not stupid, he probably won''t." Jun Qingshang supported his exquisite chin with his hand, and said with his thin lips opened and closed below his nose: "I''m not worried that the Phoenix Map will cause a huge storm, but you, you''re the one instead. Right now, it''s almost the critical time to breakthrough to become a Spirit Master, compared to them, you''re already doing it very quickly, you don''t need to be in a hurry, alright?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s body froze, and he nodded his head guiltily: I will take note of it in the future.


    "In the future?" Jun Qingshang''s beautiful eyes squinted in danger, and her expression became even uglier. It''s good that nothing happened this time, otherwise, she would never be able to forgive herself.


    Yun Ruoleng''s small hands wrapped around his handsome face, and spoke with some comfort: "There''s no future. I will cultivate hard, but I will protect myself well and not let you worry."


    Although Jun Qingshang was clear in his heart that he could not completely believe these words, when he looked at Yun Ruoleng''s sincere eyes, he unconsciously agreed. At the same time, the anger in his heart disappeared in an instant.


    Jun Qingshang brought back something good, which even shocked the knowledgeable and knowledgeable Yun Ruoleng.


    "These are Night Pearls?" He walked into the study and saw a half-a-man''s height ball on the table. He was shocked. "There''s such a big ball?"


    Jun Qingshang reached out to touch her head, and nodded in praise. "Your eyesight is not bad, this is indeed a Night Pearl, and it is the biggest of all of history."


    Yun Ruoleng smiled, but she did not have much good impressions of this gigantic object. On the contrary, it was an unremarkable little gold plate that attracted her attention. Yun Ruoleng reached out to pick up the small gold medal, and discovered that this golden-ranked material was actually not made of gold, there was a row of words engraved on it. Yun Ruoleng looked at the words on the card and his face turned ugly.


    Jun Qingshang, who was standing at the side, noticed the change in Yun Ruoleng and asked curiously: "What''s wrong?"


    "Where did this come from?" After which, Yun Ruoleng handed the gold plate to Jun Qingshang.


    Jun Qingshang looked at the words written on it, his eyes filled with suspicion: "I don''t know, I found this in a merchant''s family, is there a problem?"


    "There''s a big problem!" Yun Ruoleng took a step forward and pointed to the gold plate in Jun Qingshang''s hands: "Where do these words come from?"


    "I''ve never seen this before." Jun Qingshang had already said that he had never seen anything before, but Yun Ruoleng became even more panicked now, and the expression on his face became even more solemn.


    "If my guess is not wrong, the Yue Ling should have discovered a terrifying primitive nation, and this nation has bestowed material help to the Yue Ling." Yun Ruoleng held the gold medal in her hand, her heart was filled with complex emotions. She did not expect that she would find Japanese characters in this place, it was not because she was afraid of those people, but because such people suddenly appeared.


    The moment the battle began, not only were the people and wisdom of both sides engaged in it, more of it was provided with financial resources. If there was someone who supported Yue Ling, Heaven''s Enlightenment would be at a disadvantage.


    "I hope I''m wrong." Yun Ruoleng''s eyes were still fixed on the Night Pearl. Such a big thing, aside from the tribe it was impossible for anyone to make it, so she did not suspect that the other party had transmigrated.


    Jun Qingshang glanced at Yun Ruoleng but did not say anything.


    Two days after this event, Jun Qingshang suddenly received news that the Yue Ling had started to prepare for action. As the main force, Jun Qingshang and his men led the rest to the military camp located 30 miles away from the capital.


    Once again, Yun Ruoleng was the only one left in the Duke Palace. Peach Blossom and Cui Ying waited on him closely, while Uncle Pu took care of all the matters in the Duke Palace, and Yun Ruoleng''s eyebrows hadn''t relaxed at all in this period of time.


    "Miss, the Prince has been gone for several days. You can''t just stay in your room, can you?" Peach Blossom really could not stand it anymore. She walked to Yun Ruoleng and tried to persuade him: "Today, Miss Yang sent someone over to deliver the invitation. She said that the banquet will be held at the Great Sima Mansion today and this servant will accept the invitation in your place.


    Yun Ruoleng, who was still reading, finally had a reaction, his elegant brows knitted together again: "Didn''t I say that I''m not going out recently?"


    "But that is Miss Yang''s invitation?" Peach Red hurriedly tried to defend herself, "If you don''t go, Miss Yang will misunderstand, so this servant will accept."


    "Go to the storage room and get the gift. Send someone to send it over." Yun Ruoleng said impatiently as he turned his body to continue reading.


    Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng in astonishment, her small mouth opened slightly, but seeing that Yun Ruoleng was not joking, she could only sigh and did not speak further.


    Yun Ruoleng''s change caused the entire Duke Palaces to sink into a state of panic. Even the two maids who were serving her did not dare to act rashly.


    "After eating dinner and going out for a walk, you will realize that the world has changed in the past few days when you haven''t paid attention to it." An Yue was unable to endure Yun Ruoleng''s sudden change, and with Peach Red and Cui Ying''s obstruction, he walked into Yun Ruoleng''s room.

 C281

    When An Yue came in, he coincidentally met Yun Ruoleng for dinner.


    Yun Ruoleng''s appetite had not been good lately, and his mood was restless and restless. When he heard An Yue''s half-consoled, half-coerced words, he stopped what he was doing.


    That''s right! It had been a long time since he had last visited the courtyard. This season should be the season where spring breeds vigor! Maybe it would be better to look at the scenery.


    Yun Ruoleng put away the bowl in his hand, then stood up and walked out.


    An Yue looked at Yun Ruoleng who had suddenly stood up and headed towards him. His heart was startled, but just as he was about to speak, he looked at her and gently smiled: "Thank you."


    Ah? An Yue thought she misheard, and looked at the lady who left in front of him in astonishment, her heartbeat slowing down. The moment Yun Ruoleng stepped out of the room, An Yue''s Peach Blossom and Cui Ying, who were at the door and ready to support him, were immediately shocked.


    "Little ¡­"


    "Where is Miss going? This servant will accompany you! " Tao Hong pulled Cui Ying, stopping her from speaking any further, smiling as she went forward to welcome him.


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at the two of them indifferently, and the smile on her face instantly disappeared. Peach Blossom furrowed her brows as she looked at Cui Ying, begging for help. Cui Ying shrugged and mouthed to her, "Follow!"


    Peach Blossom had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow. An Yue also walked out of the room. Cui Ying quickly stopped him and asked doubtfully: "What did you tell her? Why is she willing to go out? "


    "She just went to see what was going on in the back yard." An Yue said as he opened the arm in front of him with a displeased look on his face.


    Although his words were short, the intelligent Cui Ying immediately understood. This was because Yun Ruoleng was temporarily willing to go out and take a look, maybe she would return and change back to her original state.


    Cui Ying sighed in defeat. It was not like the young miss would not tell the prince about this situation.


    As Yun Ruoleng walked in the garden, she looked at the lush green garden with her brows knit together. The environment of the garden was just like before, it was a good thing that someone had moved a Spring Flower from the side courtyard.


    As he walked, Yun Ruoleng''s mood became clearer. He had thought of many things that he had not thought through clearly, and the steps on his feet unconsciously slowed down, Peach Blossom who was behind him saw that, and was startled, as if she had thought of something, and laughed: "Does Miss feel that she is trapped in the green and can''t free herself?"


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, and smiled faintly in reply.


    What was a peerless smile? At this moment, Peach Blossom finally understood. Her watery eyes blinked, and her mind was completely taken away by Yun Ruoleng.


    "It''s been a long time since I''ve been inside the palace. Prepare to pay respects to the empress dowager tonight." After Yun Ruoleng thought through many things, he became even calmer, and the smile on his face became even more enchanting.


    Peach Red thought she had misheard. She looked doubtfully at the woman standing in front of her with a faint smile. Yun Ruoleng was being stared at by Peach Blossom, causing her to feel uncomfortable, as she unhappily glared: What are you looking at? Did you hear what I said? "


    "I heard it!" Peach Red was shocked and subconsciously replied.


    Other than the Great Sima Palace, there was only the imperial palace. Yun Ruoleng, who had not shown his face for almost half a month, would definitely go out to meet the empress dowager, so Peach Blossom had relied on her clever intelligence to prepare everything for Yun Ruoleng.


    After he strolled around the courtyard, the smile on Peach Blossom''s face, which was difficult to hide, immediately lit up the eyes of everyone present. The servants, who were suppressed by the deathly aura, looked at the smile on Peach Blossom''s face and immediately became spirited, but no one dared to offend the female owner.


    "Awesome!" After Yun Ruoleng and Peach Blossom returned to their room after they fell asleep, Cui Ying couldn''t help but give Peach Blossom a big thumbs up.


    Peach Blossom did not dare accept credit, and immediately laughed: "This is not my credit, I do not know what An Yue said to her, after walking a circle, it is as if young miss has understood everything."


    "Seems like An Yue really has some skill." Cui Ying pursed his lips and smiled, Peach Blossom nodded in agreement.


    The next morning, after Yun Ruoleng woke up and was solemnly dressed up by Peach Blossom, he rejected her in his heart. Looking at Peach Blossom''s happy expression, he slightly frowned his brows and decided that it was better to not disturb her interest.


    Peach Red knew that Yun Ruoleng was afraid of trouble, so when she was dressing her up, she did it in the simplest way, it was just that she did not know, that it was still very troublesome in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes.


    After more than an hour had passed, he finally finished grooming himself. Yun Ruoleng looked at himself in the mirror and opened his mouth with a stiff smile, "Let''s go!"


    "Wait!" Peach Blossom was still very satisfied with her masterpiece, she immediately took off a cloak from a shelf on the side and put it on Yun Ruoleng: "Spring has just arrived, the outside temperature is still a little cold."


    Although Yun Ruoleng looked at the cape that was draped over his body with a head full of black lines, with the sun shining brightly outside and even wearing a set of clothes, wasn''t Peach Blossom not afraid that he would die from the heat?


    Peach Blossom obviously did not notice the change in Yun Ruoleng''s expression. After tying up her cape, she clapped her hands in joy. "Miss, let''s go!"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng really did not want to talk to her anymore, so he turned around and directly left.


    Peach Red was startled, she was obviously slower than Yun Ruoleng by half a beat, when she regained her senses, Yun Ruoleng was already almost out of the room. Peach Blossom immediately chased after Yun Ruoleng, carefully observing her every move.


    Yun Ruoleng acted as if he did not see Peach Blossom, and his steps got faster and faster. Peach Blossom realized that she had to run to keep up with her young miss. She frowned and asked, "Miss, why are you walking so fast?"


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly stopped in his tracks, and Tao Hong, who was following behind him, almost bumped into her, but after Peach Blossom stabilized herself, Yun Ruoleng slowly opened her mouth: "What time is it? If we don''t go now, we''ll be entering the palace for lunch soon. "


    "Eh ¡­" Tao Hong looked at Yun Ruoleng in shock. She suddenly felt that she could not understand her young miss, or in other words, ever since she woke up, she could no longer understand her young miss.


    If not for the fact that her face looked exactly like Miss''s, she would have thought her Miss had been replaced!


    After saying that, Yun Ruoleng sped up his footsteps. When he reached the entrance of the residence, he saw the familiar scene at the door and sighed.


    He had heard Peach Blossom mention that she was preparing to enter the palace this morning, and he still had his doubts. After all, the princess, who had not come out of the Water Spirit Pavilion for half a month, suddenly wanted to go out, which made him suspicious.


    "Uncle Pu, it''s been hard on you." Yun Ruoleng walked in front of Uncle Pu and lightly nodded at him. "You may be a bit late coming back to the palace today, so don''t wait for me."

 C282

    "Yes." Although Uncle Po was full of doubts, he didn''t ask any further. He knew that as a servant, he had to follow the rules.


    Yun Ruoleng then left the Duke Palace with ease. Uncle Pu heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that she was finally willing to step out of the palace, a stone fell from his heart.


    Yun Ruoleng brought Peach Blossom into the palace. After the little emperor received the news, he threw down the thick stack of memorials and ran towards the Peace Palace. The empress dowager was very happy as well, letting people prepare a lot of things that Yun Ruoleng liked to eat.


    It had to be said that the empress dowager had treated Yun Ruoleng well, treating her like her own daughter.


    "I heard you are going to the palace. I had someone prepare your favorite crystal hibiscus cake." As soon as they arrived at the palace, the empress dowager pulled her along as she jabbered on and on. "I haven''t seen you for a while. Why have I gotten skinnier?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s face carried a light smile, and her small hand held onto the empress dowager''s hand. "Your son has been eating all day, then slept, so how can he possibly get fat? The Queen Mother must be seeing things. "


    "You little girl!" The empress dowager laughed as she held Yun Ruoleng''s hand and patted him lightly. "You have to accompany this one and chat more when you enter the palace.


    Yun Ruoleng''s lips curled up into a smile, and nodded: "Although this son cannot stay for long in order to enter the palace, I can stay a bit later to accompany mother."


    "Good!" "Alright!" The empress dowager giggled so much that she couldn''t even close her mouth. It could be seen how much she liked Yun Ruoleng.


    Not long after Yun Ruoleng arrived, he saw the eunuch who sent the message run in and respectfully knelt on the ground. "Esteemed Empress Dowager, Esteemed wangfei, the emperor has arrived."


    The empress dowager and Yun Ruoleng were stunned at the same time, and before the official who sent the message could even get up, he saw a bright yellow figure rush in from outside the door and pull Yun Ruoleng out from the empress dowager''s hands. After looking at Yun Ruoleng carefully and instructing Little De who had followed in, he said, "Have the imperial kitchen prepare the Eight Treasures Soup.


    "Yes sir!" Little De responded with a smile, cupped his hands and quickly left.


    Yun Ruoleng finally snapped back to reality and her delicate eyebrows knitted together: "This Eight Treasures Soup is very expensive. With a great war approaching, it''s best for us to save some money."


    The little emperor''s face was stiff and he looked much older than he was in his childhood. "How can Heaven''s Initiation be poor with such a small amount of food? You have lost a lot of weight. If we don''t make up for it, when the royal uncle comes back, we won''t be able to report it to him! "


    "¡­" What a woman feared the most was being called fat by others. What she feared the most was that even though she knew she was fat, she still had to accept her companion''s'' good intentions''.


    Yun Ruoleng was exhausted, but he could not show it on his face.


    Jun Rushi leaned in close to Yun Ruoleng and whispered: "Does Imperial Aunt want to be like Yan Feihong and be thin?"


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows, and chuckled: "You know a lot of small things, but you guessed wrong, how can I refuse to give you the Emperor''s gift?"


    The little Emperor curled his lips. His imperial aunt had always been this unfathomable. Just now, he had clearly seen her shocked expression, but in the next moment, her smile was concealed. He didn''t know which expression was her real one.


    Yun Ruoleng accompanied the empress dowager in the palace and read and wrote on her books. She also drew a few paintings at the same time, and during this time, she received heaven-shaking news.


    When the sun was about to set, Yun Ruoleng sat on the carriage and returned to the Regent¡¯s Mansion. All along the way, there was no longer any trace of a smile on his face.


    Peach Blossom sat beside her and looked at her helplessly.


    Yun Ruoleng returned to his previous condition, quietly doing his own thing. Peach Blossom was very worried, afraid that she would really suffocate her to death, but after a few times of asking, she did not reply. In the end, Peach Blossom could only sit by the side helplessly.


    The battle between the Yue Ling and the Heaven''s Enlightenment had already started, and it was reported that two cities were seized. Jun Qingshang hurriedly rushed back from the barracks that night, and in order to prevent Yun Ruoleng from worrying, he arranged for people to watch over her.


    But how could he hide such a huge matter? Yun Ruoleng had gone to the Imperial Palace early in the morning, so he naturally had some understanding of this matter. With the Yue Ling and military power breaking bamboo, consecutively attacking two cities, Yun Ruoleng was not stupid, so he naturally knew of Jun Qingshang''s plans.


    "Halt!" Just as Jun Qingshang was about to leave, a soft sword suddenly appeared in front of him.


    Jun Qingshang frowned, his gaze somewhat helpless looking at the lady holding the flexible sword: "I''m returning to the army, I''ll be back to visit you in a few days?"


    "The Great Sima brought thirty thousand elite soldiers to the front lines to provide support a few days ago, but the war is tight up ahead, so it''s impossible for the thirty thousand elite soldiers to defend against the three hundred thousand strong army. Jun Qingshang, do you take me for an idiot or do you treat me as an idiot? Do you think I don''t know what you''re going to do now? "


    Yun Ruoleng''s face was filled with anger, his hand that was holding onto the flexible sword tightened: "To be honest, it''s not like I''m not allowed to go!"


    "Ruo Er..." Jun Qingshang''s expression became a little nervous. After all, they were husband and wife, and although he could not say that he completely understood Yun Ruoleng, he could guess most of the things she wanted to do. He absolutely could not let him go to such a dangerous place.


    Yun Ruoleng did not wait for him to finish speaking, the sword in his hand quickly changed directions, and directly placed it across his own neck: "I don''t want to hear those indifferent explanations, I want to live together, and die together. If you step out of the palace alone, then I will die right now in front of you! "


    "Yun Ruoleng!" A trace of fear finally appeared on Jun Qingshang''s face. Looking at the thin layer of blood on the blade, his face became terrifyingly gloomy, "Don''t be too willful!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s body stiffened. Willful? Was she being willful?


    Yun Ruoleng laughed bitterly, the hand holding the flexible sword unconsciously loosened, and retreated a few steps dejectedly: "It''s my willfulness."


    The noise was not loud, but it woke up the sleepy servant girl. Peach Red and Cui Ying looked at Jun Qingshang in shock, and Yun Ruoleng who was standing by the door wielding his sword.


    Jun Qingshang coldly snorted. "Take good care of your consort!"


    "Yes ¡­" Peach Blossom frowned, she still wanted to say something, but discovered that Jun Qingshang had already left. The sound of his sword hitting the ground attracted many people''s attention, Peach Blossom took a look, and was immediately alarmed: "Summoning the imperial physician!"


    Yun Ruoleng felt his vision go black. He could not hear anything and could no longer see anything.


    Jun Qingshang returned, but he quickly left again. As if Regent¡¯s Mansion was his inn, he quietly returned, and then left without a sound.


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up, he had already disappeared without a trace, but when he asked Peach Blossom, Yun Ruoleng found out that Jun Qingshang had already been gone for three days.


    "Princess, the Prince has already led the troops to war. You can stay at home and wait for him to return with success!" Peach Blossom passed a letter to Yun Ruoleng, which Jun Qingshang left for him.

 C283

    Yun Ruoleng''s face was pale white, his sharp eyes swept over the name on the envelope and shakily received it, but he did not open it. Yun Ruoleng''s cold gaze swept across everyone''s faces. His gaze was terrifyingly gloomy and gloomy. Peach Blossom stood closest to her and could clearly feel the dense Qi around her body.


    "If the wangfei wants to get angry, she''ll have to wait until she has the right to do so." A cold voice instantly dissolved the terrifying aura on Yun Ruoleng''s body.


    An Yue who was still dressed in black suddenly appeared in front of her.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, seeing the scene of him appearing, the nameless fire in his heart grew brighter and brighter: "Are you here to monitor me?"


    "No!" An Yue''s voice became much gentler. Looking at her pale face, her eyes flashed with a trace of heartache, "I was sent by the Duke to protect you. So if there''s anything you need, you can tell me."


    "Protect?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, was this protection? Even if she didn''t go out, she could feel that there was at least double the number of hidden guards in the Water Spirit Pavilion. It was obvious that this was to prevent her from escaping and to use surveillance on her.


    Even if Yun Ruoleng didn''t say it, An Yue could see through her thoughts. But for the first time, he didn''t want to explain and felt that it was better this way.


    When An Yue had this feeling, he couldn''t help but frown a little, and wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Yun Ruoleng: "If you don''t want to go out, then don''t! "Go and tell them not to provoke this wangfei!"


    "Then rest well." An Yue glanced at Yun Ruoleng, and in the end, decided to hide the words in his heart. Looking at her current situation, the more he explained, the more agitated she became.


    An Yue turned back and waved his hand to everyone in the room. No one needed him to speak, they all backed off unconsciously.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned against the pillow, his fingers tightly holding the letter, as if he was going to crush it.


    It was unknown how much time had passed before Yun Ruoleng was willing to let go, but he still did not open it to take a look.


    Yun Ruoleng meditated on the bed and used a dense amount of Wu Qi to recover his body. The wound on his neck started to scab at a rapid rate, and after it fell off, it quickly returned to its original color. Only then did Yun Ruoleng retract her train of thoughts, and stared straight at the red lacquer cabinet, but she could not leave through the front door, and had snuck out after so long, she did not believe, that if she followed him, what would happen to her?


    What Yun Ruoleng did not know was that there was someone waiting for her outside the capital. And this time, when she left, she had almost destroyed the whole of Heaven''s Initiation and Jun Qingshang.


    Through the window, Yun Ruoleng could see that it was not even noon yet. It seemed that he had to wait a little longer.


    He closed his eyes slightly, and a trace of coldness could be seen on his face. Jun Qingshang, do you really think that I can''t do anything just because you left me behind? This time, I have already made up my mind. If you give birth to me, I will give birth to me.


    Although the matter wasn''t that serious, he still needed to prepare mentally.


    Time passed minute by minute, second by second, Yun Ruoleng fell asleep once again. Peach Red came in a few times. Seeing that she had fallen asleep, she didn''t wake her up. She placed her lunch on the table and left.


    Peach Blossom did not know that at the instant she closed the door, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes suddenly opened. A pair of sharp cold eyes swept across the food on the table, and she slowly stood up.


    When Yun Ruoleng stood up, because his body was a little weak, he accidentally tripped over the teacup on the small table and fell to the ground. The door was pushed open and a figure rushed in. Yun Ruoleng looked at the woman in front of him in astonishment, her phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, "Why did you come in?"


    Tao Hong reached out to support Yun Ruoleng: "Miss, are you alright? I just got out the door and I heard the glass inside shatter, so I came in to take a look. "


    Yun Ruoleng quietly waited for her to finish speaking, and smiled at her, but did not continue speaking.


    Peach Blossom helped Yun Ruoleng up to the table, waited for her to sit down, then quickly opened the box and smiled: "This servant will send someone to get you a pint of incense and some lobsters, try it quickly."


    Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath, and glanced at the contents of the food box. She had slept for quite a few days, and now that she thought about it, it was very likely that Jun Qingshang had someone drugged her before he left. However, there was no point in worrying about all this now, she would first fill her stomach, then think of a way to leave.


    Yun Ruoleng picked up the chopsticks and began to eat heartily. Peach Blossom could not help but remind Yun Ruoleng when she saw the way Yun Ruoleng was eating: "Miss, there''s still someone else watching us!"


    Yun Ruoleng who was eating happily did not notice all of this. After hearing Peach Blossom''s words, he realized that there were a few girls standing at the door behind him, seemingly ready to accept Yun Ruoleng''s mission at any time.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, she felt uncomfortable being stared at for a meal. Just as she wanted to make them leave, Peach Blossom continued, "Those are all chosen by the empress dowager to serve you. When the king returns triumphantly, she can then return to the palace."


    "What does the Queen Mother want?" Yun Ruoleng''s heart tightened, send someone to serve him? Why does it feel like I''m being watched?


    Moreover, it wasn''t just one person, but many.


    "This servant doesn''t know." Peach Red paused for a moment and continued, "The number of people the Emperor sent to protect you has increased by another thirty, and an elite army of the imperial guards. Peach Red paused for a moment, and continued," The number of people the Emperor sent to protect you has increased by another thirty, and an elite of the imperial army.


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart tightened, and he silently cursed Jun Rushi and Yang Xiong before continuing to eat the prawns. However, his complexion wasn''t as good as before.


    After Yun Ruoleng threw the last prawn into his mouth, he clapped his hands and walked out. Peach Blossom quickly followed him, like a piece of dog skin plaster, unwilling to take even half a step away from Yun Ruoleng.


    "Were you sent to spy on me?" Yun Ruoleng suddenly stopped in her tracks, her face immediately becoming more gloomy, as though her gaze that could see through everything was directed at Peach Blossom.


    Peach Blossom knelt in front of Yun Ruoleng, with a bitter face, she advised: "Peach Blossom grew up with Miss, even though Miss has changed since then, she has still been unable to change her personality. Even if you didn''t say anything, I would still have been able to feel it. This servant begs you, don''t find a way out. "


    "What did he give you?" Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. To be able to make his servant sell him out, it looked like Jun Qingshang had spent a lot of effort.


    Peach Blossom shook her head. "His highness didn''t give me any benefits. He only told me to stay close to Miss to ensure her safety." This servant thinks that the prince has his reasons for everything he does, and that since he cares so much about the young lady, he naturally will not harm you, so I agreed. "

 C284

    "Do what you promised. You said so yourself. This servant naturally will not go against those words. "


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly felt like he had lifted a rock and smashed it against his own foot. He waved his hand and sighed as he continued to walk in the courtyard.


    She didn''t believe that she wouldn''t be able to escape today.


    Night soon arrived. After eating dinner, Yun Ruoleng tiredly laid on the bed, quietly listening to the noises outside. The spring went to the summer solstice. Although it was still not in the summer yet, there was already the summer heat, and after sunbathing for an entire day, the night wind was warm. Yun Ruoleng laid on his bed, blowing the wind that came from nature.


    Yun Ruoleng who was lying on the bed had unknowingly fallen asleep, Peach Blaze had come in to blow on the light once, and seeing that Yun Ruoleng was really asleep, she pulled on her blanket and went out.


    However, Peach Blossom still underestimated Yun Ruoleng''s determination. Just as she left the room, Yun Ruoleng slowly opened her eyes. A pair of phoenix eyes that were emitting a sharp light, through the weak lighting, pulled out the bag that had been packed. She carefully stood in front of the cabinet and put away the two ordinary clothes.


    When everything was ready, he went back to bed and lay down.


    For several days straight, Yun Ruoleng repeated himself, but this was all done in secret, and no one knew about it.


    An Yue was afraid that Yun Ruoleng would not be used to it if he wasn''t there, and would also lock himself up like before. Fortunately, Yun Ruoleng didn''t do that, and on the contrary, not only did she have to come out everyday, she could even paint happily, so every painting she drew could be bought with a high price.


    However, Mo Zhan didn''t sell the paintings, he was appreciating them instead. A few taels of silver per painting could be seen whenever one wanted to. This made some scholars unable to let it go.


    "Miss, Mo Zhan''s business hasn''t been very good recently." Cui Ying passed Mo Zhan''s account book to Yun Ruoleng, but Yun Ruoleng only glanced at it, and did not accept it, and smirked: "There''s no one left in the capital, who would care about that? Only a popinjay would be willing to spend money, and a popinjay would appreciate these paintings? "


    Cui Ying nodded his head in agreement. Indeed, most of the literary people who were able to go out to battle had already left, and the rest were just popinjays, it was normal for them to have no business.


    Peach Red walked back with a basket full of things and placed the things inside the basket on the stone table. She carefully sized up Yun Ruoleng for a long time before she laughed: "These are the fruits of the Duke Palaces. Although they are not as good as the two spirit fruits in the Water Spirit Pavilion, they taste pretty good."


    Cui Ying and Yun Ruoleng looked at each other, then looked at her as if she was looking at an idiot. Peach Blossom felt her scalp go numb, as if she had thought of something, and laughed awkwardly: "This servant needs to go wash now."


    As soon as she finished speaking, Peach Blossom entered the kitchen. Cui Ying chuckled while covering his face: "She''s very smart, but too innocent."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head. The empress dowager was like a piece of white paper. Sometimes she was careful and sometimes she was careless. After the master and servant finished discussing about Peach Blossom, they continued to study the account books. This month''s account books did not contain any extra things, but looking at the few paintings that were sold, Yun Ruoleng felt that he had not lost anything.


    Outside the capital, a group of people were gathered together. It was as if they were discussing someone. A man wearing a silver mask was leaning against the carriage, holding onto a piece of grass with a dog''s tail in his mouth.


    "Mistress, we''ve already waited here for a few days. Will she come out?" The black-clothed man who followed him had long since lost his patience, but since their master insisted on waiting, they, as his subordinates, naturally didn''t dare to disobey.


    The silver masked man stretched lazily. "Based on her temper, how is it possible for her not to find him? Rest assured! I won''t wait. "


    The man in black wanted to say something, but was stopped by a glance from the silver-masked man. The master and servant duo did not continue to speak.


    The wait was very long. Yun Ruoleng was waiting for the guards in the Duke Palaces to relax their minds, and also if they relaxed their minds, she would be able to successfully escape.


    On a night when the night was dark and the wind was high, Yun Ruoleng finally made use of this opportunity. On a night when there wasn''t even moonlight, naturally, it was a night where the black winds were high, and it was also a good time to escape.


    Yun Ruoleng had already packed his belongings and took out a bundle from under the bed. This bundle did not contain much clothes, but instead contained all of his belongings.


    He carefully opened the window and used the weak light to look around him. If it was someone else, it would be difficult to see everything clearly, but as a witch, Yun Ruoleng had a different bloodline, so he could see everything clearly in the darkness.


    There was no one around, Yun Ruoleng''s lips was raised slightly, he did not know how she moved, and her entire person disappeared from the room. Yun Ruoleng appeared next to the walls of the Regent¡¯s Mansion in the blink of an eye.


    If it was before, she would still have to think of a way to climb out, but now it was different. She already had the ultimate skill of Teleportation on her body, and as long as she calculated the distance, she would be able to move 500 meters unhindered.


    This was also the reason why she came here so quickly.


    Yun Ruoleng closed his eyes, and only an afterimage passed through the wall. When he next appeared, Yun Ruoleng was already standing a few hundred meters away from the Duke Palace. She did not dare to stay any longer. Her body continuously flashed a few times before she finally arrived at a small alley not far away from the city walls.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the soldiers patrolling around the city gate, his eyebrows knitted slightly. It seemed like it would be difficult to get out from this position.


    She touched her chin and nodded thoughtfully. Since she couldn''t go through the main gate, she could only choose a wall without any guards. He didn''t know what it would be like after he left.


    But Yun Ruoleng did not care about all this, as long as he could leave, there was no rush in time. If someone found out that he was gone, they would definitely chase after him out of the city.


    Using the ability of teleportation, Yun Ruoleng dodged a few times and finally got out of the city wall, leaning on the city wall, Yun Ruoleng gasped for air, this teleportation consumed a huge amount of spirit energy, after using it so many times, he felt that the spirit energy in his body was almost gone, and his entire body did not have any strength left.


    But Yun Ruoleng was extremely strong, and could not use any power. He sat by the city wall meditating for the time it took to burn half an incense stick to burn, he felt that the power in his body had returned a bit, and his body was no longer exhausted from the lack of power.


    If he took the small path, Yun Ruoleng definitely wouldn''t be able to find the path, and adding the fact that he had to walk, it was unknown just how long he would have to walk.

 C285

    Therefore, Yun Ruoleng took a detour around the small path and arrived at the main road. This way, he could at least intercept a horse carriage.


    It was unknown if it was due to his good luck, but after walking for an hour, Yun Ruoleng saw a few horse carriages, a group of men dressed in coarse clothes, and a few ordinary looking women.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, he quickly went up and asked, "Does everyone want to go to the capital, or to the nearby Jing City?"


    The group of people looked at Yun Ruoleng alone, and were first stunned, then looked at each other, and did not reply to her.


    The situation was a little awkward, just as Yun Ruoleng was planning to ask, a devilish voice suddenly came out from behind: "Young miss is going to travel far, looks like we are going in the right direction."


    "Really?" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, and inwardly thought that he was really lucky today. Just a moment ago, he was thinking of a way to persuade them to borrow a carriage to use it, but didn''t think that he would really be together with him.


    The silver masked man nodded his head slightly, and in the next instant, he appeared in front of Yun Ruoleng. A pair of long and narrow beautiful eyes narrowed: "Miss''s face is simply too beautiful, if we don''t cover it after traveling far away, it would cause unnecessary trouble."


    Yun Ruoleng subconsciously touched her exquisite little face, thinking that she had escaped, if she did not cover up, she might be caught and brought back. But how? With a bamboo hat or a muslin?


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly thought about the disguise technique that was mentioned in the TV dramas in the past and sighed in his heart.


    "Are you upset?" The silver masked man leaned his head closer and suddenly laughed, "I''m a doctor, I can change my appearance, but I can only use it for seven days."


    Shifting his appearance? What is that? It couldn''t be blamed on Yun Ruoleng being ignorant, but rather, this thing was really puzzling. Yun Ruoleng frowned, his gaze becoming gloomy, a sense of vigilance suddenly arose in his heart: "Why are you helping me?"


    The silver masked man was stunned for a second, and then laughed out loud: "I just saw that your face was almost perfect, so I gave you a suggestion, and didn''t really ask you to do anything? You don''t have to be nervous. "


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head doubtfully, her face was easily in trouble, his suggestion was not bad, and from the looks of it, he did not seem to be a bad person, so Yun Ruoleng became a lot less cautious: "Then how do I change my appearance?"


    The silver-masked man looked at her thoughtfully, then took out a red porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it over to Yun Ruoleng: "Take this first, then I''ll exchange it for your ordinary face. Right, my name is Yan Zhu Qing, and my code name is Silver Face, and I''m from the martial arts world. "


    "Yun Leng." Yun Ruoleng swept his eyes across his silver mask and slowly spat out two words. He opened the bottle and poured out the pill. After looking at it for a while, he raised his head and swallowed the pill. Yun Ruoleng''s brows instantly relaxed, he sat on the floor and started to circulate, allowing the pill to take effect even faster. Clang clang clang clang.


    Yun Ruoleng did not give it to him, but when she swallowed the pill, the silver masked man''s eyes flashed with a smile. What Yun Ruoleng did not know was that the pill he had taken made her fall into a trap.


    When she woke up again, it was already morning. Yun Ruoleng woke up in a daze, and felt his body shaking, his eyebrows knitted together slightly. After thinking about it again and again, he realized that he had escaped, and even met a silver-faced man.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his hand and rubbed his temples, which were aching, his body suddenly froze. He felt something beside him, and his face immediately turned ugly.


    "You ¡­"


    "Morning!" Yun Ruoleng was completely awake, he turned his head and saw that the man sleeping by his side was still wearing the same silver mask, although he couldn''t see what his entire body looked like, but he could still see a sense of familiarity from his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng kicked him, and his entire body soared to the sky.


    "Bam!"


    "Bam!" Two clashing sounds rang through the carriage. The coachman outside could not help but stop the carriage, "Mistress, are you alright?"


    The Silver Mask covered his waist where he had been kicked and looked at the woman who was gritting her teeth in pain. She chuckled softly. "It''s nothing. Let''s continue on our way!"


    "Yes sir!"


    The horse carriage started to move once again, but Yun Ruoleng''s head was smacked until it was covered in gold flowers. The silver masked man sat up and smiled at Yun Ruoleng. Suddenly, his face stiffened as his expression turned odd. For a moment, he had completely forgotten about his headache.


    "What did you do to me?" Yun Ruoleng''s little face was pale white, her eyes became colder, as though she would tear the man in front of her to shreds in the next moment.


    Silver Face sat beside him and poured himself a cup of water. With a smile that was not a smile, he said, "If you feel it, then so be it. Your body will recover when you reach your destination."


    Yun Ruoleng''s entire body shivered. He had arrived at his destination? Since it was definitely not by Jun Qingshang''s side, then this destination ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly widened his eyes. "You''re someone from the Yue Ling?"


    "Women are too smart." The silver-masked man was still calm and collected, as if nothing had caught his attention.


    Yun Ruoleng only heard a thump sound in his heart, and the expression on his face became pale and powerless. He wondered why she dared to go out the door alone, wasn''t it because he possessed Shaman Energy? However, she couldn''t understand why these people would know that she had Shaman Energy.


    Silver Face would not explain anything to her, so the doubt in her heart deepened.


    Inside the Regent¡¯s Mansion, it was almost noon, Peach Blossom saw that there were no sounds coming from Yun Ruoleng''s room, so she lightly knocked on the door. There was no reply from inside, but she opened the door suspiciously and walked in, just in time to see a piece of paper on the table being pressed under a teacup.


    Peach Blossom took a look and immediately became alarmed. She quickly ran out with the paper and shouted out An Yue''s name.


    "What happened?" An Yue''s eyes were extremely serious, her voice still as cold as before.


    Tao Hong did not continue speaking and stuffed the letter into An Yue''s hands. Her small hands covered her heart and paced back and forth anxiously. An Yue received the letter, looked at it doubtfully, and then looked at the letter again. His expression instantly changed, "Watch over the Duke''s Mansion, don''t tell anyone that the wangfei is not here, I''ll go and get her right now!"


    "Yes." If Yun Ruoleng left the Duke Palaces and was found out by the people from the Palace, it would definitely be a mess. The best way now would be to quietly find her and bring her back, as if nothing had happened.


    At this moment, Yun Ruoleng was really looking forward to someone coming to find her. Silver Face sat on a small chair and dozed off. Yun Ruoleng quietly took out a letter from his bosom. This letter was given to him by An Yue when he woke up that morning.

 C286

    This was the only thing that Jun Qingshang left behind for him. When he was angry at her, he didn''t even have the time to look at it, she suddenly wanted to look at it now.


    Yun Ruoleng gently opened the envelope and looked at the familiar handwriting.


    "Ruo Er, when you saw this letter, I had already led my troops out. I know that even if I left secretly, you would still follow me. But you have to know that the war is very intense up ahead. I suppose you, like me, don''t want to see it!


    Ruo Er, all this while, you have not been a burden to me, but you are my concern, if you go with the army, I will not be able to fight with all of my heart, and if I make a mistake in the military, it will affect both our lives, so you have to be obedient and let me return from the capital, okay?


    After Yun Ruoleng finished reading the letter, her fingers trembled as she held onto the letter. She did not expect it to be like this, nor did she expect that the Phoenix Map had already ambushed someone, and it was all for the sake of waiting for her to come out from the capital.


    The laughable thing was that she simply did not understand the painstaking effort Jun Qingshang had put into escaping from the Duke Palace.


    This is good, Feng Tu will definitely use me to threaten Jun Qingshang, what should I do then?


    Yun Ruoleng carried the letter in his bosom and carefully wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. He sat on the soft couch with his knees crossed and his eyes devoid of light.


    The silver mask seemed to sense the change in the air. He opened his eyes and asked coldly, "Why are you crying?"


    "Who''s crying!" Yun Ruoleng reflexively retorted! His swollen eyes were still glistening with tears. Although it was just an ordinary face, it still had a pitiful appearance.


    The silver mask man raised his eyebrows. This girl was just being stubborn.


    The atmosphere of the carriage was a little stifling, the silver face was leaning on the carriage wall, her gaze did not move away from Yun Ruoleng. His stare made Yun Ruoleng''s hair stand on end, as he glared at her with his slightly red eyes.


    The two of them stared at each other. After an unknown amount of time had passed, Yun Ruoleng could hear the bustling sounds of people talking outside, and his eyes lit up. At this time, the Silver Face did not forget to assault Yun Ruoleng: "We don''t have much time left, so we won''t stay in any other city. Your ideas are never going to happen. "


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng pointed at the silver mask and was so angry that his whole body was trembling. This man was definitely doing it on purpose, and this man seemed to understand him very well.


    As he thought of this, Yun Ruoleng gradually calmed down. Her phoenix eyes narrowed as she looked at the silver mask in question.


    The silver masked man raised his beautiful eyes slightly, as if it had been electrocuted. Yun Ruoleng quickly opened his eyes and coldly snorted as he did not speak any further.


    Yun Ruoleng had set off six hours earlier than him, but he had not seen any trace of Yun Ruoleng even after chasing after him for several days. Every time they passed a city, An Yue would ask the city guards about their whereabouts.


    Just as he was about to reach the Tombal Mountain Pass and he still could not see Yun Ruoleng''s figure, An Yue also started to worry.


    But it was useless to be anxious, after searching for so long, An Yue knew that he could not hide it from them. He could only ride his horse and rush back to the camp.


    "Who is it?" Outside the camp, a guard raised his spear to stop An Yue''s horse as he looked at him warily.


    An Yue retrieved the order badge from his waist and threw it to the guards, "I am the Regent, An Ying Guard. I have urgent matters to attend to the Prince, quickly retreat!"


    As the personal guards of the Regent, the soldiers didn''t dare to stop him. The guards quickly handed him their tokens, and they respectfully made a path for him.


    The whip in An Yue''s hands lashed out, the horses quickly dashed inside, the camp was very wide, An Yue was not able to find the main tent even after a while. It was unknown if it was due to good luck, but at the same time, he saw a black eagle circling around him. It seemed to be scouting around, when An Yue thought of it and increased the speed of his horse.


    "Sigh!" "Why are you here?" An Ying stood in front of a nearby tent. Looking at the horse that had stopped in front of him in shock for a moment, and the gloomy face of a man that came down immediately, An Ying froze up completely upon seeing his expression.


    "Yes." An Yue frowned, "This time the situation is very complicated, I will go report later, you have to advise a few princes."


    An Ying''s body trembled, his expression extremely unsightly as he pointed towards the tent: "You should still not go in, the generals were scolded just now."


    Jun Qingshang was not in a good mood, so what he said would only make him feel bad, and would affect more people later on. An Ying thought that he should think about it after he was in a good mood!


    An Yue squinted his eyes slightly, "I am afraid we cannot wait for this matter. The more we wait, the heavier the punishment will be."


    "It''s that serious?" An Ying suddenly realized the severity of the matter, and choked on his saliva: "Then be careful with what you say, don''t throw yourself in there."


    An Yue patted his shoulder, and resolutely nodded before stepping into the tent.


    An Yue entered the tent and saw Jun Qingshang looking at the map earnestly. At the moment, he was standing in front of the battle map, his fingers constantly moving around the map as if he did not hear anyone enter.


    "Your Highness!" An Yue kneeled at Jun Qingshang''s feet with a ''putong'' sound, "This subordinate has failed in his duty for the wangfei to leave the capital in the middle of the night without knowing where she went."


    In the beginning, Jun Qingshang did not pay much attention to it. He thought that An Yue would say a few things about the capital, but unexpectedly ¡­ How could Jun Qingshang still sit! He suddenly turned his head. "What''s going on?"


    An Yue handed over the letter Yun Ruoleng left behind to Jun Qingshang, and Jun Qingshang picked up the letter in one go. His gaze coldly swept over the contents of the letter: "It''s been so long, why haven''t you found it yet?"


    "This subordinate has asked about it along the way, but no one has seen the wangfei. This subordinate suspects that the wangfei hasn''t found the way, or ¡­" An Yue did not finish his sentence, but Jun Qingshang''s face had turned cold.


    If Yun Ruoleng really disappeared in front of him one day, then he really wouldn''t be able to live on.


    The moment Jun Qing Shang heard that Yun Ruoleng had prepared the Phoenix Diagram, he lost all reason. If it wasn''t for An Ying knocking him out and bringing him back to his tent, he probably wouldn''t even know what he was going to do.


    "Master, your subordinate has already sent someone to inquire about the authenticity of this matter. Please don''t worry, it might not be like this." Jun Qing Shang''s expression didn''t look too good. Although he had already come to his senses, he still had a knot in his heart. He couldn''t let go of this fight.


    Yun Ruoleng was extremely regretful, but he was helpless, in the recent period of time, he had been locked in a horse carriage, and did not even know where he went, let alone escape. It was not that Yun Ruoleng had not thought of using spells to escape, but once she boarded the horse carriage, she looked like she was in a bad situation, as the power around her was being suppressed and she could not use it at all.


    "Miss should eat something." The silver masked man gave a thin piece of cake to Yun Ruoleng, and said respectfully.

 C287

    Yun Ruoleng angrily received the pancake and fiercely took a bite. As if a wolf was biting down on his food, the silver-masked man beside him couldn''t help but shiver. He choked back his saliva, as if Yun Ruoleng''s bite was on him.


    "Cough, cough ¡­" This bite of Yun Ruoleng''s was especially big, the pancakes were very dry, and when he choked, he immediately reached out to grab the tea that was placed on the pancakes.


    It was unknown if it was the silver-masked man taking his revenge on her on purpose or not, but seeing her reach out his hand to pour a cup of water for her, but not telling her the temperature of the water, Yun Ruoleng grabbed the cup and gulped it down.


    "Puff ¡­" Yun Ruoleng drank a mouthful of water and immediately spat it out, his hands continuously fanning himself: "Bastard, you want to kill me!"


    The silver masked man and his innocent shoulders shrugged, "You started drinking before I even finished speaking, can you blame me?"


    Without even thinking, Yun Ruoleng nodded his head. His tongue was already scalded, who could he blame?


    The silver masked man''s eyes flashed with a peculiar glint, he didn''t continue speaking. Every time they arrived at a city, they would prepare an hour of time, but from the beginning to the end, this man had never left her side.


    What was even more despicable was that there were girls accompanying him. Even the toilet was accompanied by someone. From this, it could be seen that the other party was well-prepared.


    In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. Even though Yun Ruoleng could not see what was happening outside, she could clearly sense that the environment she was in was no longer within the scope of the Heaven''s Initiation. At the moment, she regretted it even more. She didn''t want to become an ancient sinner because of Jun Qingshang''s disappearance.


    After the carriage had travelled for more than half a month, it finally stopped. The silver masked man walked down from the carriage, Yun Ruoleng was overjoyed, he thought that he did not need to be watched anymore, suddenly a hand reached out to the door and pulled open the curtain, "Are you not coming out?"


    This sound... Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes. When he saw the man at the door, his face immediately darkened: "Phoenix Diagram!"


    "Little Ruo Er, long time no see!" Huang Tu raised his eyebrows, a faint smile on his face that was even more exquisite than a woman''s.


    Seeing that face, Yun Ruoleng''s first reaction was to tear him apart: "Why did you send people to stop me? Could he be using me to threaten Jun Qingshang to retreat? "Then you are too despicable!"


    Huang Tu laughed lightly: "Despicable?" It had been a long time since someone said that, and I used to feel angry, but when Yun Ruoleng said this word, I didn''t feel the slightest bit of anger.


    Huang Tu shook his head with a smile: "We''ve been sitting in this carriage for over half a month, let''s get off first! Silver Face has already told me about your current situation. Without the ability to counterattack, I really want you to do something, you don''t even have the chance to escape, do you? "


    "You bastard!" Yun Ruoleng was so angry that he immediately waved his claws and jumped down from the carriage.


    Yun Ruoleng stood in a foreign land, her expression somewhat angry and at a loss. Seeing that the surroundings were so unfamiliar and wanting to escape was extremely difficult, Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath, she could not make an indifferent sacrifice.


    Huang Tu had been looking at her the entire time. Even though it was an ordinary face, his eyes were still blind. Seeing her tensed up and relaxed, his brows couldn''t help but tighten. Yun Ruoleng was completely unwell from his gaze, and snorted coldly, taking the lead to walk forward.


    This was the first time Yun Ruoleng came to the Yue Ling, so for the sake of making her feel comfortable, Huang Tu specially ordered someone to prepare many interesting things for her courtyard.


    Because she was currently not in the Imperial Palace, and was the only woman in the Palace. After entering the Palace, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but be slightly surprised in his heart. If one were to say that Jun Qingshang was not near to having a woman''s beauty, then the Phoenix Diagram was the exact opposite. There were all kinds of fat and green thin, and each of them wore revealing clothing, giving them the feeling of strolling in a brothel.


    Huang Tu walked over to her side and walked beside her, his gaze not missing the surprise in her eyes. Huang Tu glanced at the black-clothed man behind him with some displeasure. The black-clothed man understood and quickly had his men bring Ying Yan out of the courtyard.


    "The Ink Embroidery Pavilion is prepared for you." "The environment here is very good. You can stay at the highest floor and see the entire mansion. There are also many flowers inside, and this place is much more beautiful than Regent¡¯s Mansion."


    Yun Ruoleng''s cold eyes swept across the pavilion once, and felt that it was not bad, but she was no longer in the mood to look at the scenery outside. She grabbed onto Phoenix Diagram''s sleeves: "What exactly do you want to do?"


    "Rest assured, don''t think about anything else." The smile on Phoenix Diagram''s face slowly faded, replacing it was indifference and alienation.


    Yun Ruoleng thought that he saw wrongly, but just as he was about to ask, he saw a group of servants running out from inside. The leader was around twenty years old, with a slim and graceful figure, a refreshing and refined appearance.


    "Phoenix Diagram, you wouldn''t want me to stay here, right?" He didn''t know if Yun Ruoleng was scared stiff by the flustered gazes of the bunch of mischievous girls, but he subconsciously asked.


    In the end, he could no longer hold back his laughter as he said, "I am not that hungry. Don''t worry, these are all maids and you are their master. Whatever you want to say is up to you."


    Yun Ruoleng curled her lips in disdain. Women had a natural ability to sense each other, when she saw this group of people, she could already feel the change in this group of people. One could imagine how sad it was for him to stay in the Ink Embroidery Pavilion.


    Yun Ruoleng did not know that ever since she saw the Phoenix Diagram, she did not act like a captive at all. Even if she did something that Phoenix Diagram loathed, the Phoenix Diagram did not say anything serious.


    After the Phoenix Diagram was finished, he left, and Yun Ruoleng''s days of suffering followed.


    As soon as the Phoenix Diagram left, the leading servant started to attack Yun Ruoleng. Of course, it wasn''t a fight, but a verbal attack.


    "Tsk tsk, it looks just like this, why did the emperor take a fancy to you?" The leader of the maidservants was called Meng Die. Her name was very dreamy, but the words that came out of her mouth made people feel very uncomfortable.


    It was only then that Yun Ruoleng remembered that the effect of Form Changing Beauty had not passed, so her appearance was covered, but this was also good, in case there was any unnecessary trouble. Yun Ruoleng did not reply her, and went straight in.


    Meng Die didn''t dare to stop Yun Ruoleng and prevent her from entering, but she could make fun of him and mistreat him from other places. Anyway, this was still her territory.


    Meng Die thought that Yun Ruoleng was easy to bully all by himself, but she didn''t think about how Yun Ruoleng had obtained the special treatment from the Phoenix Diagram.

 C288

    During dinner time, Meng Die brought a bowl of porridge and a bowl of pickled vegetables to Yun Ruoleng, "I have never had such a big meal before, so I am not afraid of having diarrhea after eating too much."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the salted vegetables and porridge on his face and his expression became extremely ugly. He picked up the porridge on the table and placed it on Meng Die''s face, "A servant girl must have the appearance of a maid, don''t think that all masters are easy to bully."


    "You ¡­" Meng Die reacted very quickly, barely avoiding Yun Ruoleng''s attack. She took a few steps back, and pointed at Yun Ruoleng with her trembling finger, "A country bumpkin like you want to climb up the branches and become a phoenix, and not see what you look like? Aren''t you afraid that the emperor will despise you?"


    "Become a phoenix by climbing up a branch?" Yun Ruoleng was so angry by her words that he started laughing.


    So what if Phoenix Fairy Beauty was the ruler of a country? She, Yun Ruoleng, did not think much of men who flirt with women.


    Meng Die''s expression turned ugly. Hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, it was as if he was ridiculing her respected emperor, how could she bear with this. The Dream Butterfly raised her hand and slapped towards Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng raised his hand to block her attack, while his other hand was busy making a "pa" sound as he slapped the Dream Butterfly''s face.


    "You ¡­"


    "You what you?" Yun Ruoleng sneered: "You hit me and I''m not allowed to retaliate, right? This matter can''t be considered my fault if I went to the Phoenix Diagram. Furthermore, when I arrived, he had already left you all in my hands. "


    "Nonsense!" The dream butterfly''s face was filled with disbelief. Her body swayed a few times and then collapsed to the ground.


    Yun Ruoleng was actually quite surprised. The fact that the dream butterfly was able to avoid his attack, showed that she knew martial arts, and her martial arts should not be low. Furthermore, she must have become the supervisor of the Black Embroidery Pavilion because she had some ideas about the Phoenix Map, but she did not expect herself to say such a thing.


    But Yun Ruoleng was not in the mood to care about this, he snorted and walked out. Seeing that she was about to leave, Meng Die quickly climbed up from the ground to stop Yun Ruoleng.


    "Out of the way!" Yun Ruoleng unhappily glanced at the woman in front of her.


    With an imposing manner, Meng Die subconsciously took a step back. However, she did not forget her duty. She held her chest high and said, "You can''t leave!"


    Yun Ruoleng thought he heard wrongly and looked at the dream butterfly in puzzlement, "Why?"


    "How would I know? It was the emperor who said that!" Once the Phoenix Diagram was mentioned, the dream butterfly looked as if she had found food and mental energy, proudly raising her chin.


    Yun Ruoleng finally reacted and laughed. He turned around and pointed at the food on the table: "Your Yue Ling is so poor that only miscellaneous vegetables and porridge remain, and you still don''t allow me to go out and eat good food? "Meng Die, listen to me. If you don''t give way today, you have to give way. Otherwise, don''t blame me for taking action."


    Yun Ruoleng had already felt that she could use her own Shaman Energy, so charging out was also possible. In addition to the fact that she could teleport, it wasn''t impossible for her to escape.


    "How dare you!" Meng Die was shocked. Even though she said those words, her body was trembling. Sometimes, when two people fought, it was not because of their skill, but because of their aura.


    As the Regent Princess of the King, she didn''t even know how strong Yun Ruoleng''s aura was. She only sneered at the entrance, and then, the dream butterfly didn''t dare to really stop her.


    Although Meng Die did not stop Yun Ruoleng, he followed behind her closely like a servant girl.


    Yun Ruoleng could clearly feel that the person behind him did not say much, and before long, he met Yu Yang who often followed him. Yu Yang looked at Yun Ruoleng in shock: "Who is it?"


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, he wanted to dodge but he was blocked by the sword: "Who are you?"


    The endless entanglement of Yu Yang made Yun Ruoleng extremely uncomfortable. Seeing him pointing a sword at him, the nameless flame in his heart rose slowly: "Someone from the Heaven''s Enlightenment!"


    Yu Yang held the sword tightly in his hand, looked at Yun Ruoleng''s appearance, and confirmed that he had never seen her before, but her tone of voice made him feel extremely familiar.


    "Ruo Er, why did you come out?" Just as Yun Ruoleng and Yu Yang wanted to make a move, a charming voice came from behind Yu Yang. Yu Yang respectfully cupped his hands and retreated to the side.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered: "My Yue Ling is already so poor that only congee and miscellaneous vegetables remain.


    A look of astonishment flashed across Huang Tu''s enchanting face, and he immediately looked at the shivering dream butterfly behind Yun Ruoleng: "Since when did our kitchen only have porridge!"


    "This servant knows her wrongs!" The dream butterfly dropped to its knees with a thump. The sharp mouthed dream butterfly instantly became a female slave kneeling on the ground. Yun Ruoleng scoffed in disdain, and circled around him, preparing to leave.


    "Let go!" When he arrived beside Feng Tu, he grabbed her arm with one hand. Yun Ruoleng was immediately enraged: "What the hell are you trying to do!"


    A complex look flashed across Phoenix Diagram''s face, but it was soon overshadowed by the darkness in his heart. "Be honest and stay within the prince''s mansion. Don''t try to escape, otherwise ¡­"


    "After being tied up by you from Heaven, you''re not allowed to run anymore?" Yun Ruoleng said as he looked at Phoenix Diagram with a smile that was yet not a smile, "You are truly despicable. Using me to threaten him, you aren''t afraid that I''ll kill you first."


    Yu Yang''s heart trembled as he looked at Yun Ruoleng warily. At this moment, he finally knew who the woman in front of him was, wasn''t he the Regent Prince of the Heaven''s Enlightenment Regent¡¯s Mansion, Yun Ruoleng? It was no wonder why he could use such a tone to speak to his master.


    The dream butterfly who was kneeling on the ground raised her head and looked at Yun Ruoleng with glee. This woman was not afraid that the Emperor would kill her first.


    Phoenix Fairy Beauty was not angry at all, instead, she laughed out loud: "Ruo Er still likes to joke around like before. I think you must be hungry since you have been on your way for such a long time! How about you accompany me for dinner? "


    Yun Ruoleng''s brain worked quickly. She was temporarily unable to escape from this manor, so she could only stay and find an opportunity to escape. Earlier, she purposely angered Huang Tu, but he wasn''t angry at all. This made her a little surprised. Yun Ruoleng suddenly felt an illusion from the man in front of him, as if all of his attacks had landed on cotton, and could not enrage him.


    Inside the Heavenly Enlightenment Camp, An Yue and An Ying stood outside the Regent''s Camp and muttered to each other. An Yue''s face became serious, compared to An Ying, An Yue looked like he wanted to say something, but was hesitant.


    "This cannot be said." An Ying frowned, "Royal Concubine is temporarily safe, but Prince will cause a great deal of chaos. Let''s wait for Prince to calm down first!"


    "That would only make the prince more anxious." An Ying shook his head in disapproval, his face displaying an unprecedented look of concentration.

 C289

    An Ying became silent, and An Yue followed suit.


    After a long while, An Yue opened his mouth and said, "I''ll go find her and rescue her. Tell me in a while, I''ve found traces of the wangfei, and am about to investigate."


    An Ying nodded his head slightly, and accepted the request. His hand patted his shoulder: "Be careful along the way."


    An Yue nodded solemnly, he then turned and left. Not many people in the camp knew that An Yue had come, and similarly not many knew that he had left.


    After finishing his meal and drinking to his heart''s content, Yun Ruoleng returned to the Ink Embroidery Pavilion and stared at the curtain on his bed with mixed feelings.


    If she went missing, An Yue would definitely send people to look for her. If they were unable to find her, they would definitely report her to Jun Qingshang.


    Yun Ruoleng held her face in distress, she was too infuriating! How infuriating!


    "Boom ¡­" Dong dong dong ¡­ Dong Dong Dong ¡­ Yun Ruoleng heard the rhythmic knocking on the door, his entire body became excited, he got up from the bed and carefully leaned on the door, carefully recognizing the person''s figure, his heart trembled, and then opened the door.


    "An Yue..."


    "Shh." An Yue, dressed in his Imperial bodyguard attire, quickly turned around and entered the room. He turned out the light in the room, "Princess, please leave with this subordinate!"


    "How did you get in?" Yun Ruoleng thought about how there were people everywhere inside the Ink Embroidery Pavilion. He could not help but be curious, so he did not dare to rashly follow him.


    "The fourteen Dark Guard members in the Ink Embroidery Pavilion are all low level Dark Guards. I dealt with them. Actually, although this place appears to be heavily guarded, these people aren''t that powerful. I reckon he used it to confuse your judgment. " An Yue''s explanation made Yun Ruoleng''s heart tighten.


    With the phoenix image being such a cautious person, it was impossible for it to do such a careless thing. Yun Ruoleng carefully listened for the voices outside and did not find anything wrong. Never mind, since there was such a good opportunity, he would leave first.


    Yun Ruoleng lifted the bundle placed on the bed and grabbed An Yue''s hand. Using his teleportation abilities, he dodged dozens of times before finally releasing a sigh of relief.


    An Yue looked at Yun Ruoleng in disbelief. Yun Ruoleng was also surprised: "This ¡­"


    "I tried it in the day, but it was useless. How could I teleport at night?" Yun Ruoleng muttered to himself for a bit. Then, as if he had thought of something, he realized that it was not good and ran towards the city wall with An Yue in tow.


    "Esteemed wangfei, this ¡­"


    "Things are a bit complicated. Since we''re out, it would be safer for us to leave as soon as possible." Yun Ruoleng said while looking for an alley to randomly pass through. He walked in the right direction, and Yun Ruoleng felt that he wouldn''t make a mistake.


    The result proved what Yun Ruoleng was thinking. There wouldn''t be any patrolling guards in the alley, so they were naturally safe.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t even dare believe that he had escaped so easily. An Yue turned his head to look at the city wall, and sighed lightly: "Can the wangfei still walk? This place is too close to the city wall, so if we don''t go far, we''ll easily be caught. "


    Yun Ruoleng nodded, then forced himself up and slowly walked forward.


    An Yue supported Yun Ruoleng as his brows slightly knitted. "Esteemed wangfei, how about I carry you? "A little faster this way."


    An Yue''s words made Yun Ruoleng halt his steps, and he nodded without hesitation: "I''ve recovered so I can carry your shield, this way we can move even faster."


    She didn''t know how far it was from here to the barracks, but from the looks of it, it was still a long way off.


    Yun Ruoleng laid on An Yue''s back as he felt a lot more at ease. His body relaxed bit by bit, and unknowingly fell asleep on his back. An Yue used his Qing Gong and ran for about two miles before he met a family. He did not dare to disturb the commoners as he knew he would likely implicate others if he escaped.


    An Yue found a place to hide from the wind and put Yun Ruoleng down.


    Yun Ruoleng''s sleep was very shallow, and in addition to the fact that An Yue''s back was too stiff, she wasn''t really asleep either. The moment she put him down, Yun Ruoleng woke up.


    "How did you find me?" Yun Ruoleng was very curious, he extended his hand and touched his ordinary face: "You can recognize it even like this?"


    There was no mask on her face. Her white face looked pale in the moonlight, like a vampire''s, and her skin was even better than a woman''s.


    If one were to say how enchanting the Phoenix Map was, then An Yue was as fresh and refined as a vulgar man.


    Cough cough, this was the third time I had seen his real face, even Yun Ruoleng, who had a breathtaking beauty, was feeling envious.


    "There''s a scent on your body. The eagle found you." As An Yue said this, the corner of his mouth raised a little.


    Taste? Yun Ruoleng took a whiff of his own body, and did not smell any kind of special scent?


    She didn''t need flower dew to bathe, she only used water to wash. Where did the smell come from?


    An Yue was amused by her mischievous look. Although it was stiff, it still could not hide the smile.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at him snappily. "You''re not lying to me, are you? How could I smell anything on my body? "


    "No one can smell it." The meaning behind his words was that no matter how hard you studied, you wouldn''t be able to figure it out.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face darkened. If a human can''t smell it, then only sensitive animals can smell it. What did Jun Qingshang do to him?


    It was just like tracking.


    An Yue quietly watched the change in Yun Ruoleng''s expression, and instantly hoped that this moment would never pass.


    An Yue leaned against the wall and slowly closed his eyes, slowly suppressing the unfathomable feelings in his heart. On the other hand, Yun Ruoleng was immersed in his own thoughts about Jun Qingshang, and did not even notice the change that had occurred to An Yue.


    Maybe he was really tired, Yun Ruoleng thought, then slowly fell asleep while leaning against the wall.


    Before dawn the next day, An Yue woke Yun Ruoleng from his slumber.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his sleepy eyes, looking around in confusion: "What happened?"


    "Let''s go while the sky is still dark." There''s a small town up ahead, and we''ll go there and find two fast horses. There were still two days'' journey from here to the Heaven''s Initiation Army''s camp. Walking is too slow. "


    Yun Ruoleng was immediately filled with energy. He thought that since it was dark now, and he still hadn''t found out that the Ink Embroidery Pavilion was no longer there, he had given her enough time to escape. Yun Ruoleng, who was always on guard, quickly calculated his escape plan. He got up, and without caring about whether or not his body was clean, he grabbed An Yue and teleported him a few times.


    Before An Yue could react, he was already outside the town. Yun Ruoleng was also exhausted to the point where he was perspiring profusely, his body leaning on An Yue''s body weakly: "We''re not opening the door yet, we still have to wait."


    After running for an entire night, Yun Ruoleng only had one word to describe her current self, and that was "weak".


    An Yue placed her under a tree by the side and asked worriedly, "Princess ¡­ Are you all right? "

 C290

    Yun Ruoleng did not speak, he closed his eyes and started to circulate the remaining Wu Qi in his body to repair himself.


    An Yue did not continue asking and sat down to protect her.


    Time passed minute by minute, Yun Ruoleng''s face slowly turned red.


    An Yue looked at how Yun Ruoleng was feeling better, and then heaved a sigh of relief, standing up slowly, he raised his head and looked at the white sky, and muttered: "It''s getting late, I don''t know when I''ll wake up."


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to have heard her voice, as he slowly opened his eyes. When the sunlight shone on Yun Ruoleng''s face, it was filled with gold light, and then, an exquisite face appeared in front of An Yue.


    "You ¡­" An Yue frowned, her heartbeat quickened as she looked at her face, forcefully suppressing the emotions in her heart. She took a deep breath, "Princess, the sky is about to brighten."


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng slowly stood up, as if he didn''t notice the changes in his body. He stretched his back and said, "Let''s go!"


    An Yue lowered his head, not daring to look into her eyes, and followed behind her, entering the small town step by step.


    The town wasn''t particularly big, and it was already a miracle that the two of them could travel so far in one night. At this time, if they bought two horses in the town, no one would catch up with them.


    After entering the little town, An Yue''s gaze had not left Yun Ruoleng''s face. Seeing that many people were looking at her, An Yue could not help but pull on Yun Ruoleng''s arm.


    Yun Ruoleng puzzledly frowned: "Why? This face shouldn''t be ugly, right? "


    "Cough, cough ¡­" An Yue gave an awkward cough, "Your looks are back."


    What? Yun Ruoleng was shocked, she subconsciously covered her face, only then did she see the eyes of the people around her, she immediately dragged An Yue and ran. He was in a panic and didn''t seem to care that men and women weren''t intimate with each other anymore.


    An Yue was surprised, her expression somewhat stiff, but she did not shake off Yun Ruoleng''s hand. Yun Ruoleng pulled him and ran for a long time before she stopped.


    "Tired ¡­" "I''m so tired." Yun Ruoleng bent his body, and gasped for air.


    An Yue''s breathing was also a bit ragged, but he was not too tired to walk, so he passed the bundle in his hands to Yun Ruoleng: "Stand in the alley and wait for me, you are not allowed to go."


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at the alleyway and then looked at An Yue. She nodded, with her current appearance, she would probably cause unnecessary trouble on the street, so it would be better for her to find a suitable place to hide.


    After Yun Ruoleng walked into the alleyway, he made an ''OK'' gesture towards An Yue.


    An Yue unconsciously raised an eyebrow, the corner of her mouth slightly raised, her already beautiful face looked even more beautiful. Yun Ruoleng lovingly watched An Yue leave like an idiot, and thought in his heart that there were actually three great beautiful men within the Regent¡¯s Mansion!


    Jun Qingshang was beautiful like a jade tree in the wind, An Ying''s horn was distinct, and she gave off an imposing air, as for this An Yue, it could not even be unduly described as beautiful like a jade crown.


    An Yue did not know what Yun Ruoleng was thinking, nor did he know what Yun Ruoleng had just encountered.


    Yun Ruoleng was deep in his thoughts with his bag when he suddenly felt something on his shoulder.


    Yun Ruoleng reflexively punched the person behind him fiercely, but it was blocked off by a pair of large hands. She turned her head and saw a sloppy-looking man emitting a strong stench as he stared at her with lustful eyes.


    Even more disgusting, he grabbed his hand and kissed it.


    Yun Ruoleng felt goosebumps all over his body, and he was even more rude to him. His other hand quickly condensed his Shaman Energy, not giving him any chance to counterattack.


    "Bam!" A loud noise attracted a lot of attention. Yun Ruoleng twitched his body disdainfully as he used a handkerchief to wipe his fingers, and conveniently took out a small handkerchief to put on his face, then turned and left.


    Yun Ruoleng had never thought that he would meet such a pervert after going out on a trip, not to mention that he had been taken advantage of by a beggar.


    As he thought about it, Yun Ruoleng''s expression couldn''t help but sink.


    As Yun Ruoleng walked out of the alley, he met An Yue leading a horse and holding an exquisite mask. Seeing that her expression was not good, An Yue suspiciously looked at her and then looked at the gathering crowd.


    "I''m fine!" Yun Ruoleng took the mask from his hands and put it on, then turned and rode his horse and waved at An Yue: "It''s getting late, let''s go back! This place will sooner or later be opened by the heavens.


    "Yes." An Yue looked at the crowd, a look of killing intent appeared in his eyes, he was not stupid, it was true that Yun Ruoleng''s appearance would attract attention, but it was not enough to make her angry, the reason for her anger was not easy to explain.


    An Yue took care of all the matters in his heart, and with a flip of his hand, he jumped onto his horse and nodded to Yun Ruoleng.


    The two of them did not care about the crowd and left the town on their horses.


    Once it was over, Jun Qingshang''s army did not immediately snatch the city away. Instead, they took a breather, and regardless of how the soldiers outside cursed, Jun Qingshang stood on the city wall, quietly watching the enemy troops cursing from the ground.


    "Prince ¡­"


    "No rush." Jun Qingshang raised his finger, and a faint smile appeared on his face. Just now, he had already received the news that Yun Ruoleng had returned safely, and all he could do for her now was to attract the attention of the Phoenix Diagram.


    Jun Qingshang raised his finger and moved it very frequently, quickly causing a row of archers to be blocked by the guards on the city wall. The people below could not see them at all.


    Xie Mei smiled and waved her hand.


    Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Countless arrows were shot out simultaneously. The enemy troops below the city gate tower were caught off guard. The one who was scolding was hit by the arrows. Immediately, the city gate was filled with miserable screams.


    Jun Qingshang raised his finger again, and with another wave, the door of the city gate opened, following that, the moat was lowered, and a group of people rushed out of the city. Jun Qingshang turned and went down the city gate tower, where Treading the Snow Wu Hen was already waiting for him.


    After riding on a cloud of dust, the cavalrymen behind him followed them out of the city gates.


    "I heard that General Han has been through hundreds of battles and has the title of Yue Ling War God. This king wants to compete with you. Jun Qingshang pulled on his horse''s reins, his expression still carrying the feeling of a smile yet not a smile.


    Seeing such a rampant Jun Qingshang, the fifty year old Han Mo did not look very good either. He pulled his horse and took two steps forward, "Even though the Regent is still young, he is still a little too inexperienced!"


    "Haha ¡­" Jun Qingshang rubbed his chin, thinking about how the person who said that last time died.


    "Hahaha ¡­" You weren''t scared by this marshal, were you? " Han Mo still did not know that he was on Jun Qingshang''s death list.


    Seeing how the other party remained motionless, Han Mo grew even more arrogant.


    An Ying, who was by Jun Qingshang''s side, could not take it anymore. He came out first and pointed the sword in his hand at Han Mo. "Old fool, do you dare to fight with me?"

 C291

    "Who do you think you are!" Han Mo disdainfully swept his gaze at An Ying, and snorted lightly, "If you want to fight, then this marshal will fight with the main general, and you will lose this marshal''s identity!"


    "You ¡­"


    "An Ying!" Jun Qingshang immediately berated him: "This king has always wanted to consult General Han''s spear arts of the Han Family, you can leave!"


    "Yes sir!" An Ying did not dare to say much and quickly retreated. Jun Qingshang tightened his horse''s belly and took a few steps forward, his fingers that were clear of bone slowly caressing Treading on Treading on Snow''s pure white mane: "Let''s go, we''ll go and experience it together."


    Treading on the snow let out a hiss, as if it felt the master''s intentions, and it rushed forward.


    Han Mo did not dare to hesitate and rushed forward on his horse.


    "Bam!" Long spear against large blade, the two of them rode on horses for hundreds of rounds, Jun Qingshang''s long spear was raised to deflect the incoming large blade, his hand suddenly spun, causing Han Mo to be startled, but it was too late to dodge, the long spear pierced into his shoulder.


    Han Mo cried out in pain as his large blade slashed towards Jun Qingshang''s head. Jun Qingshang somersaulted and dodged his attack, but caught himself in a difficult situation.


    Jun Qingshang flipped down from the horse''s back. One of them sat on the horse while the other stood on the ground. It was obvious that the person on the ground was at a disadvantage.


    "Go to hell!" Although Han Mo was injured, his strength and movements were not even halved. Jun Qingshang used his long spear to block the blade and lifted his horse''s hooves.


    "Hong Long!" Han Mo''s horse had one of its legs broken off and its center of gravity was unstable. Han Mo and his horse fell to the ground.


    Jun Qingshang took the opportunity to give chase as he continued to thrust his spear towards the head of Han Mo who had fallen down until it was full of stars.


    Han Mo was a veteran general after all, and he had climbed out of a pile of dead men. Naturally, he had a way to protect his life. He used his saber to deflect the incoming attack and slid backwards with great speed.


    Jun Qingshang frowned, seeing that the situation was bad, he retreated quickly. As if he sensed danger, he rushed forward and grabbed the reins with one hand and jumped onto the horse.


    "Swoosh ¡­"


    "Puchi ¡­" Jun Qingshang had still not escaped. Originally, when Han Mo came out, he already knew that he was no match for Jun Qingshang and had secretly arranged for people to attack him.


    The dense amount of arrows were always faster than Treading the Snow, Jun Qingshang blocked most of the arrows, but was unable to dodge an even more tyrannical arrow, and the arrow directly shot through Jun Qingshang''s left shoulder.


    This arrow was very powerful and definitely did not come from an ordinary person.


    "Your Highness!" An Ying was the first to react and galloped in.


    As the commander in chief of the army, the Great Sima, who was in charge of the overall situation, was panicking. However, he did not rush up. Instead, he commanded the troops to retreat.


    An Ying protected Jun Qingshang as he returned to the city. Jun Qingshang no longer had the strength left, and his body became weak, making him unconscious.


    Yang Xiong brought the army doctor with him, "Quick, let the prince have a look!"


    "Marshal, don''t let the news that the prince is unconscious spread out. The only thing the public will say is that the prince has been struck by a sword and is heavily injured. For the time being, he needs to recuperate." An Ying used his last bit of reason to tell Yang Xiong.


    Yang Xiong suppressed the fear in his heart and nodded to An Ying, then walked towards the door with heavy steps. Once Yang Xiong left, An Yue couldn''t help but ask, "How is the Prince?"


    "Young General, this arrow was almost able to pierce the heart. This subordinate is incompetent and does not dare to pull it out."


    The Military Doctor''s words did not scare An Ying. At the same time, An Ying could tell the condition of Jun Qingshang''s body, and his expression became even more unsightly. His fingers had already clenched into a fist, as though he would explode in the next second.


    "If only there was a Magus here." The military doctor suddenly said, "If a Magus can use magic to protect the Prince''s heart veins, then there is a 70% chance of success."


    An Ying looked as if he had found hope, and said to the army doctor: "First help the Duke stop the bleeding, I''ll go find a Magus."


    "Young General, it''s not easy to find a Magus. Even if you were to go to the Sacred Palace, it wouldn''t be a problem for any Magus. There are only a few elders in the Sacred Palace."


    "Why?" An Ying''s face changed slightly as he frowned. He clenched his fists tightly.


    The doctor trembled as he said in panic, "The Shaman''s Shaman Energy is impure, and it will affect the king, so ¡­"


    "As long as you can endure until noon tomorrow, these won''t be a problem!" An Ying secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Others might not know that the Regent''s Consort was a pure Shaman, but he knew that it should be the leaders of the An Ying Guards.


    No one else in this world could find such a person with pure power.


    An Ying did not dare delay any further, after giving out the orders, he brought An Ying and a few others with him to the camp. Right now, the most important thing was to welcome the consort, as the only person who could save the Duke.


    Yun Ruoleng and An Yue galloped towards the army camp on their horses. Although they had exhausted three good horses along the way, they were still several tens of kilometers away. The closer he got to the camp, the more nervous Yun Ruoleng became. From this morning onwards, he became extremely flustered.


    "Hungry, right? Let''s have something to eat here ¡­"


    "Did something happen at the border?" Yun Ruoleng held onto his chest, only feeling a sharp pain in his chest, and couldn''t help but frown as a bad premonition arose involuntarily.


    An Yue looked at her as if she was suffering from this symptom because of the continuous journey through the night.


    However, Yun Ruoleng did not think so. He looked at the border area: "Eat something, rest for an hour and then hurry over."


    An Yue glanced at her. His originally delicate face was a little dazzled, the other hairpins in his hair had loosened a little, and his eyes had turned green.


    An Yue wanted to advise but he didn''t know how. He could only sigh and pretend that he didn''t see anything.


    Yun Ruoleng did not believe in the sixth sense, but there were times when the premonition was extremely accurate. The two of them rested for an hour before continuing their journey, the distance between them was two and a half cities, making it difficult to distance themselves from Jun Qingshang.


    Furthermore, at night, the road was even more difficult to travel on, so An Yue could only bring her to a place to rest.


    "How much longer?" Yun Ruoleng calculated the distance he needed to travel, and the hatred he had for the Phoenix Diagram grew even deeper.


    The distance between the two cities was too large, and it would take some time for them to get there. If anything were to happen to Jun Qingshang, she would definitely kill him.


    "It will take about six hours to get to the barracks. We''re not far now, so let''s rest for the night. It won''t be too late even if we travel tomorrow." An Yue couldn''t help but ask, "If the wangfei were to run to this lord''s side with her hair and face covered in filth, he would only be more worried."

 C292

    Yun Ruoleng was anxious in his heart, but he knew that he looked like a crazy woman. Riding on a horse for an entire day was indeed tiring.


    Furthermore, they were already here, so even if Yue Ling soldiers came, they might not be able to find them.


    In order to prevent anyone from noticing, Yun Ruoleng specifically ordered An Yue to not light a fire, so that he could see the person clearly without being noticed. As Yun Ruoleng thought about it, he fell asleep. He leaned against the tree, and his head kept moving.


    An Yue leaned gently against her side, carefully supporting her head with his hands. Looking at the Yun Ruoleng who was still in a deep sleep and feeling a little uneasy, the corner of his mouth slowly raised up.


    How he wished that time would stop, that all of this would not be a dream.


    Yun Ruoleng was woken up by the sound of horse hooves, and vaguely heard the noise coming from outside the grass. An Yue''s eyes lit up and said to Yun Ruoleng in a small voice: "It seems to be the voice of the An Ying Guards, wait for me here, I''ll go take a look, then I''ll come back."


    After An Yue finished, he did not wait for Yun Ruoleng''s reply and quickly left.


    Yun Ruoleng hugged his knees in confusion. Was it possible to tell that it was An Ying Wei''s voice?


    Did An Yue really hear the sounds of horses hooves outside? Of course not, it was just to not let Yun Ruoleng find out that he was sitting beside her. An Yue didn''t even know that just because he said that randomly, he actually met An Ying, who ran out of the camp to assist them.


    Even An Yue himself was a little speechless, his palm condensed a burst of energy and struck the tree closest to him.


    An Ying, who was riding by, suddenly pulled on the reins and looked around warily: "Who is it?"


    It was only then that An Yue walked out from within the bushes. The originally vigilant An Ying was startled for a moment, as he looked at An Yue with disbelief: "You''re so fast ¡­ Where''s the wangfei? "


    An Yue turned around and glanced at the big tree not far away. A beautiful figure walked out from behind the tree, her long hair fluttering in the wind.


    An Ying dismounted, and after cupping his hands in greeting to Yun Ruoleng, he said anxiously, "Wangfei, quickly go back. Your highness is in trouble!"


    Yun Ruoleng, who was originally calm, panicked and quickly pulled on An Ying''s collar: "How are you protecting me?!"


    "Subordinate has failed in his duty." An Ying''s brows slightly knitted, and said respectfully in the end.


    An Yue looked at the slightly abnormal Yun Ruoleng, and hurriedly stepped forward to release An Ying from Yun Ruoleng''s grasp, blocking their way: "It''s useless if you''re angry, why don''t you go back and take a look first!"


    After hearing what An Yue said, Yun Ruoleng regained her composure, but her entire body was still trembling. Looking at her, An Yue sighed in heartache, "What exactly happened? How is the Prince? "


    "The Duke had a huge battle with Yue Ling''s Han Mo, but in the end he had a sneak attack. have been hit by an arrow, and have brushed past his heart meridian. "


    Yun Ruoleng''s body trembled even more violently, and the expression on his face became even more sinister: "Han Mo, right? When we return, I want to take a good look at this Han Mo! "


    There was only one person who could injure her, and that was, "Die!"


    Yun Ruoleng was very scary when she was fierce, especially when her entire body was releasing dense killing intent, An Yue felt like he did not even know her anymore.


    "What are you standing there in a daze for!" Yun Ruoleng said with a cold face, and two cold words came out of her mouth, "Return to camp!"


    An Yue and An Ying did not dare delay any longer, they quickly followed behind Yun Ruoleng, and got on their horses. Yun Ruoleng took the lead and galloped forward, and on the way, An Ying explained to Yun Ruoleng the reason why he needed her back so urgently. It was also for this reason that Yun Ruoleng originally wanted to teleport away, but after hearing the reason, he gave up on that idea.


    She had to ensure that she had enough power to save him.


    In order to adjust his body to its best condition, Yun Ruoleng chose to ride with An Yue, while An Ying rode on two horses and galloped forward.


    The journey to the camp was shortened by half an hour. When they arrived at the entrance, Yun Ruoleng rode back on her horse because she was escorted by the An Ying Guards. No one dared to stop her even if she was the first to enter the camp.


    "King ¡­" Yang Xiong looked at the girl in astonishment as she sped past. A layer of dust covered his voice.


    Followed by a group of black clothed An Ying Guards, the leader was An Yue ¡­


    The corner of Yang Xiong''s mouth twitched. An Ying said that he wanted to find a Magus with pure magic power. Yang Xiong could not understand, but he would not let Yun Ruoleng act recklessly, so he quickly arranged for the general beside him to go, and quickly headed towards Jun Qingshang''s tent.


    "Phew!" Yun Ruoleng pulled on the rein in his hands, steadied his body, and An Ying Wei who was standing by the door quickly kneeled down.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly raised his hand, the pressure he gave off made it difficult for her to breathe, and An Ying immediately opened up a path for her. Lifting up the curtains of the tent, Yun Ruoleng walked in and a pungent smell of medicine wafted into her nose.


    "Who are you!" Before Yun Ruoleng could even get close to Jun Qingshang, he was stopped by the Military Doctor, "Who sent you?"


    Yun Ruoleng simply did not have the mood to speak with him.


    He belonged to the biggest category of the Four Protectors in the absence of An Yue and An Ying. Hearing Yun Ruoleng''s call, he quickly lifted the curtain and entered.


    "Let him be quiet!" Yun Ruoleng waved his hand impatiently. Without waiting for the Military Doctor to react, he walked around him and headed inside.


    The Military Physician was shocked by the word "Royal Consort" that came out of Yin Sha''s mouth. Seeing Yun Ruoleng walk in with large strides, he opened his mouth, but it was already too late to stop him.


    Yun Ruoleng walked to the bed and looked at the pale-faced man lying on the bed, tears flowing down uncontrollably. His gaze was attracted by the arrow in his heart, and his face darkened: "How do we do that?"


    The military doctor was stunned for a moment. He turned around to look at the Dark Blade who had a helpless expression on his face.


    The military doctor shrunk back. "Arrow almost ¡­"


    "I''m a Magus, I''m asking you what to do!" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes were slightly red, like a leopard trying its best to restrain its emotions.


    The Military Doctor looked at Yun Ruoleng in shock and disbelief. It was impossible for him to not know about a Magus with pure Magus Strength. Who didn''t bring out such a good wizard to show off?


    As for the military doctor''s distrust towards him, he expressed that he understood, but at the same time he reminded him, "No one can compare to Princess Wang Fei''s pure Shaman Power. Compared to her older sister, the previous Holy Mother, Princess Wang Fei''s is much purer."


    "Huh?" She was born with the Cloud Minister¡¯s Mansion, and although she was a concubine, her status was still a bit higher than the direct daughter. On the other hand, she had a sister with a terrible reputation, and even though she had washed her face clean, no one knew that she had the ability to use magic.


    The military doctor believed that the Dark Sha wouldn''t lie to him, but such big news made him unable to accept it for a while.

 C293

    Yun Ruoleng''s face became a little ugly as he tried to smooth things over. "The wangfei does not want to compete for fame and glory, the unknowns are innocent."


    Only then did the military doctor react, cupping his hands in salute. "Princess, please forgive us."


    "What must this wangfei do to help the prince pull out the arrows?" When Yun Ruoleng came here, he had meticulously calculated that the injuries were mainly caused by that arrow. As long as he pulled it out, there should not be a big problem.


    "The Royal Consort needs to use her magic to protect the Prince''s heart veins and help me pull the arrow out." The Military Physician''s words were somewhat sluggish, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes: "What level is your confidence in?"


    "This ¡­" The Military Doctor became even more hesitant. An Yue and An Ying, who followed him in, changed their expressions when they heard his words. He wasn''t sure why the medic couldn''t speak.


    "Speak!" Yun Ruoleng''s domineering aura leaked out, and an invisible pressure quickly enveloped the Military Physician. The Military Physician staggered, and almost fell to the ground.


    The Dark Blade was the closest to Yun Ruoleng, and could clearly feel the changes in the surrounding air. His expression was one of extreme astonishment.


    He had even learned such a difficult skill!


    The Military Doctor shakily gestured to forty percent, and only then did Yun Ruoleng manage to repress his might. "Then, listen to me, I''m seventy percent certain."


    "Huh?" The military doctor was so scared that his legs went numb. He had never heard of the Regent Princess knowing medical skills!


    Isn''t this equivalent to handing over the life of the prince to her? The doctor''s first reaction was to object.


    However, Yun Ruoleng''s gaze, which did not allow him to reject, instantly extinguished his thoughts, and he asked confidently. "Princess, are you sure?"


    "Do you believe me?" Yun Ruoleng did not answer the Military Doctor''s question. Instead, he turned around and looked at An Ying and An Yue who had not spoken since he entered the room.


    An Ying nodded his head, An Yue also nodded his head, and even the people at the side nodded their heads.


    If it was in the past, the An Ying Guards would still question Yun Ruoleng''s words. Ever since she had escaped by herself from under the noses of everyone, they no longer dared to underestimate this young and beautiful Regent Royal Consort.


    "Alright." Yun Ruoleng was satisfied with their reactions, he nodded and looked at the Military Doctor, "He is my husband, if I am not confident, it will not benefit me at all, so you must believe in me."


    When Yun Ruoleng spoke, she had a kind of bewitching feeling. Adding to her outstanding appearance, the Military Physician was stunned by what she saw, and he couldn''t help but nod his head.


    Yun Ruoleng was very satisfied with this result. She, who had calmed down, had already thought of a way to save Jun Qingshang. He turned around and walked towards the bed. He glanced at the military doctor who was kneeling on the floor and gave him a look.


    The military doctor hurriedly rolled up his sleeves, wiped the sweat off his forehead, got up and followed.


    Yun Ruoleng walked over to the side of the bed and sat down. He reached out his hand to probe Jun Qingshang''s forehead and was extremely thankful that he did not have a fever.


    The Military Doctor walked forward and checked Jun Qingshang''s pulse, then nodded: "His Royal Highness''s pulse has stabilized, but if he does not pull out the arrow, I''m afraid he will be furious ¡­ ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng pulled out a dagger from his boot. The Military Doctor was so scared that he retreated two steps, and before he could finish, he pointed at Yun Ruoleng in terror.


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at him indifferently, then slashed at his own finger. Fresh blood gushed out from his middle finger, placing his finger in the middle of the teacup that was floating in the air, and very quickly, a small half cup of fresh blood appeared in front of everyone.


    "Princess, are you trying to use your blood that contains Shaman Energy to raise Master?" An Yue reacted and his expression immediately became ugly. If his master lost his wangfei, then he could not continue living. He absolutely could not let this kind of thing happen.


    An Ying extended a hand to stop An Yue who was about to step forward: "That might not be true. Pure Magus blood has the ability to revive the dead, and with the addition of the heaven-defying treasures that Princess has used, there''s no need for her to do that."


    Yun Ruoleng slowly raised her head and gave An Ying a faint smile in return. It was as he had said, she wanted Jun Qingshang to drink her blood, so that she could protect her heart veins.


    Plus, she had taken a lot of good things in the past, so the blood was no longer just pure Shaman Energy.


    "Help him up." An Yue handed over a white handkerchief to Yun Ruoleng, and while Yun Ruoleng bandaged the wound on his hand, he said: "Lift yourself and do not touch the wound, in a while, An Ying, support him. An Yue, stabilize the position of the arrow behind your back, and in the nick of time, use this dagger that can cut through iron like mud to cut off the arrows.


    "Yes sir!"


    After he finished everything, Yun Ruoleng fed the blood on his hands into Jun Qingshang''s mouth. As he fed the blood, he also used his magic power to help catalyze the blood flow, and very quickly, Jun Qingshang''s face was no longer as pale as before.


    The advisor hurriedly reached out his hand to check his pulse. He discovered that his pulse was beating even faster than before.


    "Are you ready?" Yun Ruoleng''s gaze swept across the three of them one by one, and the three of them nodded their heads. Yun Ruoleng carefully used her power to help Jun Qingshang''s heart, and her lips slightly perked.


    The five of them worked together, Yun Ruoleng neither hurriedly nor slowly used his Shaman Energy to slowly push the shaft of the arrow. When the arrow shaft was about to pierce into Jun Qingshang''s chest, Yun Ruoleng used all his strength and the arrow shaft flew out.


    A miracle happened, because Yun Ruoleng''s blood was used, when the arrow shaft was taken out, the wound did not spurt any blood.


    "Great." When An Ying saw that there wasn''t much blood on Jun Qingshang''s wound, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Raising her head to look, Yun Ruoleng''s face was pale white, the sweat on her forehead had already drenched her hair, and because she had not been tidied up after returning, she looked quite pathetic, but it still couldn''t change her peerless complexion.


    The Military Doctor moved very quickly and quickly helped Jun Qingshang bandage his wound, but Yun Ruoleng did not stop his hand from the beginning.


    An Yue looked at her with a complicated expression as he glanced at her.


    An Ying shrugged his shoulders, he did not know how to react either, nor did he know if interrupting Yun Ruoleng would affect the Duke.


    After the bandage was done, the Military Doctor slowly stood up. He looked at Yun Ruoleng with a shocked heart and said: "You guys aren''t stopping me? If this goes on, the prince will be fine. I''m afraid something big will happen to the wangfei ¡­ "


    An Yue''s face instantly became even uglier. Without waiting for the Military Physician to finish speaking, he swung his hand and knocked Yun Ruoleng out on the bed.


    An Ying frantically tried to stabilize Jun Qingshang, and laid him down on the bed.


    "Your highness was just lucky this time." An Ying wiped the perspiration off his forehead, seeing the two of them lying on the bed, he felt much more relaxed. He turned to look at An Yue and saw his expression turn serious, so he dragged him away.


    An Yue suddenly woke up, and looked at An Ying with a puzzled expression. An Ying''s face was completely black, and her cold attitude made him unavoidably feel a little astonished: "What''s wrong?"

 C294

    An Ying did not speak, and pulled him towards the training grounds, speaking with an extremely heavy voice: "An Yue, put aside your thoughts! If you want to live well, then don''t be tempted by that person! "


    An Yue''s heart trembled, and his gaze unconsciously drooped down. It seemed as if he was a little disappointed and unwilling, and the fists on both sides of his chest tightened and tightened. "I know."


    "You know you''re dumb!" An Ying became even more anxious, "Do you not want to live anymore?"


    An Yue turned his face silent. From the moment he came to Yun Ruoleng''s side, she had already become the target of his protection for the rest of his life. Although he was not convinced in the beginning, after experiencing so many things, he could not help but admit that Yun Ruoleng was not only smart and beautiful, she was also very interesting.


    He didn''t even know when he had fallen for her ¡­


    His silence caused An Ying to become even more anxious. In order to let him think it through, An Ying punched him without hesitation.


    This punch landed squarely on An Yue''s face.


    "You ¡­"


    "If you don''t wake up now, you will harm yourself sooner or later!" An Ying said in a cold voice, "When your highness wakes up, I''ll tell your highness to bring you back."


    An Yue clenched his fists, and stared at An Ying with his slightly reddened eyes: "No! I know that I can''t be with her, I just want to be with her in peace! "


    "An Yue!" An Ying raised her voice, but An Yue didn''t want to hear any of it, so she just turned and left.


    An Ying was so angry that he clenched his teeth but he was helpless. After all, no one could stop this kind of thing.


    Yun Ruoleng only felt that this sleep of his had been for a long time. When she woke up, she found herself lying on the bed.


    After greedily inhaling a breath of air, only then did Yun Ruoleng remember where he was. He unconsciously turned around and glanced at the man lying beside him. Ye Zichen frowned.


    Yun Ruoleng stretched out his hand and probed his forehead, discovering that he did not have a fever, the one who was injured the most was not afraid of how serious of an injury he had, but whether he would be infected or not. Fortunately, Jun Qingshang''s physique was not bad, and there was no infection.


    Yun Ruoleng got up and went down to the ground. She tidied up the dirty clothes on her body and furrowed her brows again and again. It''s just that bathing here might not be good. He turned around and looked at Jun Qingshang, and sighed: "Why aren''t you awake yet?"


    After he finished sighing, Yun Ruoleng still did not see any indication that Jun Qingshang was about to wake up. He could only shake his head and walk out of the tent, only to see Yang Xiong who was currently guarding the entrance.


    "How is the prince?" Yang Xiong turned around and stared at Yun Ruoleng with his bright eyes, as if he was not willing to let go of any of the expression on her face.


    Yun Ruoleng''s mouth formed a smile, and nodded: "There are no major injuries, I just haven''t woken up yet. I wonder when I''ll wake up. "


    "So it''s like that ¡­" Yang Xiong sighed, and a trace of regret flashed across his 40-year-old face, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn''t have agreed with you! But now, even if Han Mo is not killed, he has fallen into their trap! "


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes. He wasn''t the only one who mentioned this person in front of him.


    Yun Ruoleng clenched her fist. Now that Jun Qingshang''s injuries had stabilized, she could finally free herself to take care of him.


    "Father, do you listen to me?" Yun Ruoleng did not have time to refuse as he said, "Now that the King is lying on his sickbed, the morale of our army has dropped. If we do not think of a way, I''m afraid that we will lose without the other party even needing to do anything."


    How could Yang Xiong not know the seriousness of this matter? But since Jun Qingshang was lying in bed, even if he did not wake up, he could not change his mind and bring him out by himself!


    Yang Xiong was slightly helpless, "Do you have a good idea?"


    "Nope." Yun Ruoleng did not hold back, he shook his head to show that he had no other choice, and then said in a serious tone: "However, if I am not mistaken, the Yue Ling Army will attack tomorrow. You can take this opportunity to let your soldiers know that without the Duke, you guys can still win."


    "Girl, you''re talking too easily." Yang Xiong sighed, "The Yue Ling and force are breaking bamboo, coupled with the fact that Han Mo wasn''t heavily injured, he will definitely be back tomorrow. At that time, without Prince to pressure him, I''m afraid his morale will be even weaker."


    Yun Ruoleng looked at him disapprovingly. "When morale is low, words are needed to motivate them. Of course, a marshal like you is required to do this. "As for tomorrow''s retreat ¡­"


    She suddenly stopped talking and smiled with confidence. "Let''s have someone prepare a hot bath for me first. It won''t be too late to tell you when I''m ready."


    Yang Xiong suspiciously looked at Yun Ruoleng, and saw that she was still smiling at him.


    "I won''t do something I''m not sure of, and I won''t go back on my word when I say it. Don''t worry, foster father." Yun Ruoleng said lightly, as if saying something very simple.


    Although Yang Xiong did not really understand Yun Ruoleng, he understood Jun Qingshang very well. He believed that Jun Qingshang would not misjudge him, so he chose to believe Yun Ruoleng and quickly ordered the two guards guarding the entrance to get hot water.


    The conditions for sending out their troops were very difficult. Every military camp would choose a place close to the water. The Heaven''s Enlightenment was naturally the same. This way, it would be more convenient to supply everyone with water.


    Not long after the guard left, he brought back hot water. After Yun Ruoleng cleaned himself up completely in Jun Qingshang''s tent, he did not forget to get someone to get some hot water to clean up his body.


    While wiping, he muttered, "Wake up if you have a germaphobe. You''re dirty. Don''t lose your temper when you wake up."


    After muttering to himself for a while, Yun Ruoleng still showed no signs of waking up.


    After cleaning everything up, Yun Ruoleng then came out of the tent and got someone to bring her to Yang Xiong''s tent.


    Yang Xiong stood outside the tent and walked around, from time to time he would rub his hands, looking anxious. The moment he saw Yun Ruoleng, his eyes immediately lit up. "It''s good that you''re here, let''s quickly go in and discuss ¡­"


    "Foster father!" Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly, then shouted with a low voice.


    Yang Xiong was startled, he immediately stopped smiling, and glared at the guard who followed: "You can take your leave first! When your highness wakes up, quickly report it! "


    "Yes." The guards knew what they should look at, what they should listen to, and what they shouldn''t listen to. He had obviously heard Yang Xiong''s words just now, but of course he wouldn''t say it out loud.

 C295

    "Let''s go." With his hands behind his back, Yang Xiong held his head up high and walked into the tent. Yun Ruoleng, who was behind him, watched his actions and could not help but smile.


    The tent was simple and crude. A large battle map of the city was placed in the center of the tent. There was also a map of the battle of sheepskins hanging around the tent.


    Yun Ruoleng held onto his waist with one hand and supported his chin with the other, walking around the camouflage map in a half circle, his jade-like white fingers pointed at their location and muttered to himself, "This is a flat land, wanting to attack from all sides is a difficult thing, even they probably wouldn''t do something like that."


    "Smart!" Yang Xiong praised, "It''s just like what the prince said. This place is good, so we set up camp here."


    Yun Ruoleng retracted his finger, and his gaze landed on the city wall not far away. It had to be said that this place was truly good, even if the enemy forces wanted to attack the city, the main camp would be able to provide support in time, and this place was located upstream, so even if those people came up with a method to poison the city, the soldiers would not be poisoned.


    Jun Qingshang had a good look at the place.


    Yang Xiong stood at the side and waited for Yun Ruoleng to explain the method. In the end, Yun Ruoleng kept looking at the map and was suddenly anxious, "Girl, tell me your method!"


    "Father, don''t worry. Let me see the condition of our army first." Yun Ruoleng smiled and pointed to the south gate of the city wall. "This is where the Yue Ling soldiers are located, right?"


    "That''s right."


    After Yang Xiong answered, he immediately brought out the wood sculpture of a person to stand outside the southern gate.


    "The southern gate is facing the Yue Ling camp right now. If they provoke us, then we are in a passive state." Yun Ruoleng turned around and raised his eyebrows at Yang Xiong.


    Yang Xiong''s heart trembled, and gave Yun Ruoleng a big thumbs up. Others challenging them meant that they had come prepared.


    Then the battle plan could be changed.


    Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, and continued: "Since our morale is low, then we need to win this war. So I thought of two ways to use it. That is, ''lure the snake out of its cave'' and ''take advantage of its unawares''. "


    The two ways of "luring the snake out of its cave" and "taking advantage of its unprepared situation" were completely unrelated to each other. However, Yun Ruoleng said that he would combine the two methods together.


    Yang Xiong expressed his incomprehension.


    Yun Ruo Leng was not in a hurry. She pointed to a patch of sand and said, "Take this chance to get dark. Father sent a thousand soldiers to set up a trap here. In order to stop their cavalry, five thousand soldiers were lying in ambush, forming a circle, smashing them with flammable ale, and three hundred archers were preparing rockets. "Of course, we also need a thousand elite soldiers to ambush them during the morning. The louder the attack, the better.


    Yang Xiong looked at Yun Ruoleng with widened eyes in disbelief.


    Yun Ruoleng seemed to know that he was in disbelief, and faintly smiled, "The terrain is flat, so naturally no one will pay too much attention to it, and the vigilance towards it will naturally be reduced as well. People don''t grow on the plains, but the ground does! The sand on the battlefield is soft and easy to cover up. Those thousand elite soldiers must be cavalry soldiers in order to smoothly return. "


    "When are we leaving?" Yang Xiong rubbed his palms together, his blood was already boiling.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the sandbags standing at the side, and nodded: "This is just the right time, everyone is leaving in the right time, we must leave one or two members behind to lead the way, once we enter the ambush, it will not be easy to exit."


    Yang Xiong nodded and hurriedly ran away.


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised in a smile, it seemed like this Grand Marshal really needed some countermeasures!


    After exiting the tent, Yun Ruoleng saw a familiar person standing at the entrance. However, this person had a strange expression, and looked at Yun Ruoleng with a guilty conscience.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows. "An Ying, what are you doing?


    "No ¡­." "No." An Ying laughed in embarrassment, thinking of his purpose for coming here, he hurriedly changed the topic, "The prince is awake, I want to meet the wangfei!"


    "You''re awake?" Yun Ruoleng was obviously a little afraid, but this time it was her turn to be guilty. However, she quickly changed her mindset and instead rejoiced that she had sneaked over.


    Yun Ruoleng had truly changed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, he had already headed towards the main camp with his head held high and his chest puffed out.


    An Ying looked at Yun Ruoleng weirdly and also quickly followed.


    Inside the only large tent of the main camp, the atmosphere was extremely depressing. Two men in black knelt on the ground, buried their heads in wait for the noble man on the bed to wake up. Jun Qingshang''s cold and serene gaze was like a wolf on the prairie, which caused people to shudder.


    "This subordinate did not protect him properly, so he deserves to be punished!"


    "This subordinate''s protection is a failure. Master, please punish me!"


    One of them was An Yue, who had been protecting Yun Ruoleng, and the other was one of the Four Great Experts of the An Ying Guards, the one who was good at assassination.


    Because of the fact that Jun Qingshang had just woken up, his face was still somewhat pale. His bony fingers were pinching an emerald bead, as he constantly rubbed it, his cold gaze moved from the two of them to the outside of the tent.


    The tent was opened up by someone from outside. A person that was filled with longing walked in. Under the light of the lamp, his exquisite face was a bit red, and he looked extremely beautiful.


    Jun Qingshang''s gaze became even colder, but there was a little bit of jade within the coldness.


    "All of you, leave!" The first thing Yun Ruoleng said after stepping into the tent was to let them go, and then she smiled merrily as she met Jun Qingshang''s cold eyes, "I know what you want to say, but you should also be glad, if this wangfei hadn''t sneaked out, would you be alive today? "Also, if it wasn''t for this wangfei thinking of a way for you, your army would''ve been turned into a fish in a knife long time ago."


    Yun Ruoleng let out a light snort as she spoke. Her cute little appearance made Jun Qingshang''s heart itch and his handsome face also tightened into a line. The flames of anger in his heart instantly turned into jade flames. "Get out!"


    An Yue, who had just helped Yun Ruoleng with a cold sweat, was pulled back to reality after a furious roar.


    The smile on Yun Ruoleng''s face slowly faded, and his expression became serious: "You''re so fierce despite being injured! Aren''t you afraid of losing your body in anger! "


    Jun Qingshang waved his hand at Yun Ruoleng, his gaze becoming gentler, but Yun Ruoleng still looked a little afraid, and slightly shook his head, indicating that he was unwilling.


    Jun Qingshang chuckled, "Wasn''t the wangfei very domineering just now? How did you become a little white rabbit all of a sudden? "


    "Where ¡­" How can that be! "I, I''m just speaking the truth. Just now, I saw that you were helping your foster father manage the affairs of the army without waking up, and you even helped him come up with an idea ¡­"

 C296

    "Oh?" Jun Qingshang stared at Yun Ruoleng with a smile that was not a smile: "Since when did Ruo Er know about the military camp?"


    "..." I only learned it from watching military strategies. " Yun Ruoleng lied and did not draw a rough draft. What he was thinking was that Jun Qingshang did not know what books he had read, so it was fine to trick him a little.


    Jun Qingshang raised his eyebrows, and pulled Yun Ruoleng who was slowly approaching him into his embrace. He could not help but be shocked, and in order not to touch Jun Qingshang''s wound, his body twisted on the blanket at the side, and he subconsciously frowned: "What are you doing?"


    "Isn''t it this king''s fortune to have such a wise person in his three lives?" Jun Qingshang poked his finger lightly at Yun Ruoleng''s small face that was as white as jade, and the smile on his face grew even wider.


    Yun Ruoleng lightly snorted as she turned her face away and shyly rebuked, "Hmph!"


    The corner of Jun Qingshang''s mouth raised slightly, he was in an extremely good mood as he laughed: "Ruo Er''s shy appearance is really cute."


    Yun Ruoleng pinched the tender flesh on his waist lightly, and glared at him unhappily: "Still not letting go! If anyone were to come in and see the famous Regent, they would probably be greatly shocked. "


    It was an extremely happy thing to tease Yun Ruoleng, especially after he recovered from his losses, Yun Ruoleng had changed and become even more sticking to him. Jun Qingshang''s mood was elated, and only after pinching her pink cheeks did she let go, and slowly opened her mouth: "Tell me what kind of countermeasures you have thought of."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, he was extremely pleased, and had finally got to the point.


    But she would not tell him so easily, she only stood in front of the bed and pulled the blanket covering Jun Qingshang''s legs, looking virtuous and virtuous.


    Jun Qingshang seemed to have never seen Yun Ruoleng in such a state before, as he curiously observed the changes in her expression.


    Yun Ruoleng turned his gaze and smiled back. He looked gentle and sweet, and even Jun Qingshang, who had seen countless beauties, couldn''t help but be a little dazed.


    Her white jade-like hands waved in front of Jun Qingshang, and she quickly put them behind her. Yun Ruoleng mischievously stuck out her tongue at him: "Before you''ve fully recovered, I won''t tell you."


    Jun Qingshang sighed helplessly. He knew that Yun Ruoleng would never do something that he wasn''t confident in. Since she had already done it, then she definitely had the confidence to defeat the enemy.


    Seeing that she didn''t seem to be worried at all, Jun Qingshang reached out and grabbed Yun Ruoleng''s hand, allowing her to sit on the side of the bed. The beautiful eyes slightly squinted: "Really?"


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang with rapt attention, knowing that this man wouldn''t be able to rest in peace if he didn''t hear it clearly. After a long while, he let out a light sigh: "Speak, speak!"


    She didn''t want Jun Qingshang to be concerned about what was happening outside while she was recuperating, but from his expression, it could be seen that even if she didn''t say anything, Jun Qingshang would still get someone to ask about it.


    Jun Qingshang snorted, he stared at her with his bright eyes, and continued to listen to her explanation.


    Actually, Yun Ruoleng''s method was the most ordinary method, but it was the most effective method. After Jun Qingshang heard this, he couldn''t help but take a few more glances at Yun Ruoleng.


    "Is it very well thought out?" Yun Ruoleng raised her chin with a proud expression.


    "Indeed." Jun Qingshang pulled her to his side and sat down. He caressed her chin and smiled: "For a wife, what else do I need?"


    He knows how to talk! Yun Ruoleng nodded her head in satisfaction, but felt that something was wrong in the next second. The smile on Jun Qingshang''s face became more and more obvious, and her gaze became more and more passionate.


    It was said that the Regent King was not close to women, only Yun Ruoleng knew that this guy was not close to women.


    Once he caught her, she would probably stay in bed for half a month!


    Too much!


    Yun Ruoleng stood outside the tent and patted his chest. Fortunately he had realised it early, or else, who knew what that fellow would do!


    Jun Qingshang sat on the bed, his handsome face as black as cinders. Did his Ruo Er just throw him there and run?


    At the same time, Jun Qingshang also started to regret.


    He would immediately make a move ¡­


    By his side, Yun Ruoleng had finally calmed the panic in his heart. Taking a deep breath, he walked a few steps forward and said to the guard at the door: "The two of you go prepare some hot water.


    "Yes sir!" If it was anyone else, they would probably not put the two Regent''s personal guards in their eyes. However, Yun Ruoleng was the Regent Prince''s Consort, so she had to carry out her orders.


    Yun Ruoleng who had just finished giving instructions did not return. Instead, he left the tent far away, afraid that he would be caught by Jun Qingshang. If it was a normal situation, she would not have hidden, but now that he had not recovered from his severe injuries, she did not want to cause Jun Qingshang''s wound that was about to heal to be torn apart.


    Jun Qingshang, who was sitting on the bed, could hear the voices outside. When Yun Ruoleng told him to get some hot water, his mood improved a lot, but after waiting for a while, he still could not see Yun Ruoleng coming back. His eyebrows tightened, and he lightly called out: "Ruo Er?"


    However, what answered him was endless silence and the sound of the wind blowing.


    "An Ying!" Jun Qingshang''s face instantly darkened, and with an angry cry, he called An Ying, who was discussing something with him outside, in.


    When An Ying saw his own prince''s pale face, he could not help but laugh bitterly in his heart. "Princess, what did you do to me this time?"


    As for why An Ying suspected Yun Ruoleng first, wasn''t that obvious?


    Because only she had that kind of ability!


    Jun Qingshang''s face was extremely ugly to behold. She was actually able to escape right under his noses, but he was still unable to give chase, and even if he couldn''t hit her, the only thing he could do was vent his anger on An Ying: "Princess Wangfei, have you sent people to follow her?"


    "Royal Concubine, she ¡­ Is she at the door? " An Ying blushed with shame. Looking at Jun Qingshang''s embarrassed expression, he secretly complained in his heart.


    This is great, will the prince silence us because of this matter?


    However, at this time, the voice of the Steel Cavalry came from outside. Jun Qingshang frowned, as if he was thinking about something.


    An Ying slowly heaved a sigh of relief.


    "Is it time?" Jun Qingshang did not go out, so he did not know the current time.


    An Ying nodded his head and quickly changed the topic, "As the person who came up with the plan, Royal Concubine must definitely be under supervision. Please do not worry, your Royal Highness, this subordinate will definitely try his best to protect you."


    Jun Qingshang snorted lightly, and did not say a word, only casually waving her hand at him.


    An Ying was overjoyed. He had finally escaped from a calamity and at this time, it was better for him not to offend too many subtleties, otherwise, he wouldn''t even know how he died.


    Yun Ruoleng stood outside the tent, his clear eyes staring at a certain spot for a very long time, even he did not know when An Yue had arrived by her side.

 C297

    "The night is cold and the dew is heavy. It''s better for the princess to enter the tent to rest." An Yue said expressionlessly as he draped a cape over Yun Ruoleng.


    Because it was night, Yun Ruoleng could not see An Yue''s eyes clearly. Sighing, he tightened his cape and tied it to his belt, "Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, let''s go! Let''s go take a look. "


    Go and take a look? An Yue puzzledly followed behind Yun Ruoleng. What was he looking at?


    Yun Ruoleng walked all the way out of the camp, observing the soldiers around her as she walked. A trace of vigilance appeared on her delicate face.


    As for what he was wary of, Yun Ruoleng did not say.


    Just like that, the two of them silently walked to the entrance of the camp. Looking at the orderly and orderly army, An Yue''s heart was shocked.


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng shook his head slightly as his gaze rested on the hand An Yue was grabbing onto him.


    An Yue quickly released his hand and felt a wave of disappointment in his heart: "This subordinate is lacking in manners."


    Yun Ruoleng laughed indifferently, he did not say a word, and turned to look at the neat and orderly soldiers, only to hear a powerful voice sounding out: "Let''s go!"


    The soldiers moved forward uniformly, causing Yun Ruoleng to nod his head in satisfaction. Jun Qingshang''s injury caused the soldiers to feel indignant, but at the same time, their morale had also dropped greatly. From the looks of it, they seemed to have recovered a lot, and they believed that they would not make any mistakes in today''s battle.


    After he sent the soldiers off with his eyes, only then did Yun Ruoleng bring An Yue back. As he walked, he asked, "How many people knew about the matter of me leaving the Duke Palaces that day?"


    "This ¡­" An Yue knew that he could not hide it, and sighed: "Before I left, I had discussed this with Uncle Pu, and did not plan to hide it, I only said that you had gone to the army camp."


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression slightly hardened: "No wonder it was so easy for the Phoenix Diagram to take me away from the Heaven''s Enlightenment. Because this matter was not made big, the people from the Phoenix Diagram returned to the Yue Ling unhindered. "


    "This subordinate knows his wrongs!" When An Yue thought of this, he secretly regretted it.


    Yun Ruoleng waved his hand: "This matter can''t be blamed on you. In short, you have to be careful in the future."


    An Yue lowered her head in silence. Yun Ruoleng rubbed her temples that were a little swollen, and yawned. "Forget it, this wangfei is tired. Let''s talk about the war tomorrow!"


    Returning to Jun Qingshang''s tent, Yun Ruoleng opened the curtain and walked in. The first thing he saw was Jun Qingshang half lying on the bed reading a book.


    Yun Ruoleng could not help but smile, but there was a trace of weariness in his smile.


    Jun Qingshang raised his head to look, his sword-like eyebrows slowly raised: "Seeing that you are tired, let''s sleep for a while!"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head, he did not go to sleep on the bed, but on the soft couch at the side, he laid down, and of course he couldn''t help but explain: "Since you are injured, I will not squeeze together with you, so as to avoid compressing the wound."


    Jun Qingshang opened his mouth, but upon seeing her serious face, he did not say anything, and nodded his head.


    He actually fooled her so easily?


    Yun Ruoleng was slightly surprised. She had thought that Jun Qingshang would not be able to resist, but he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.


    Jun Qingshang leaned against the side of the bed and continued to read, but right now, he was not in the mood to read. From time to time, he would glance at the soundly asleep Yun Ruoleng, and it was unknown how much time had passed before he finally fell asleep.


    This sleep seemed to be especially comfortable for Yun Ruoleng, who only felt that he had had a very, very long dream.


    In his dream, Yun Ruoleng saw himself standing on top of a white cloud, like a god coming and going freely, without any worries.


    In the midst of the clouds, she met Jun Qingshang. The two chatted merrily, when suddenly, an arrow shot across the sky straight at Jun Qingshang.


    The two of them had their backs to the arrow and did not even realize what was happening. With a "Puchi" sound, a sound that pierced the flesh resounded, causing Yun Ruoleng to pale in comparison.


    "Qingxin, what''s wrong with you?" Jun Qingshang frowned slightly, then forced a smile at her as a stream of blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.


    Jun Qingshang reached out and caressed her face that was so anxious that it looked like she was about to cry. Be careful... "Live ¡­"


    After saying that, Jun Qingshang unwillingly closed his eyes and fell backwards. Yun Ruoleng was shocked...


    "Mm ¡­" Yun Ruoleng slowly opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar environment around him. His originally blurry consciousness instantly returned to the cage as he looked around in alarm.


    Pink drapes and beautiful decorations. It was obvious that this was not something an ordinary person could possess. In addition, the smell of this place was very familiar and unfamiliar. Yun Ruoleng slowly got up from the bed. The dream he had just had faintly echoed in his heart.


    As Yun Ruoleng thought about this, his eyelids also twitched a few times. He became anxious and directly fell off the bed.


    The noise from inside was a bit loud, and the door was pushed open heavily. Coincidentally, she was looking at Yun Ruoleng who was climbing up from the ground and rubbing his waist, her beautiful little face was filled with anxiety, and when she saw the person who had arrived, her eyes lit up. However, she quickly reacted, and looked at him with alert: "Where is this? Who are you? "


    "This is the Imperial Palace of the Yue Ling Imperial Capital. "This servant Zhu Lan is the manager of the Embroidery Palace, she is currently serving the young lady ¡­"


    "Why am I here?" Yun Ruoleng''s face was extremely ugly, as he grabbed onto Zhu Lan''s hand with anger.


    Zhu Lan frowned slightly, and added in a small voice: "It''s useless for this lady to scratch this servant. You were unconscious when you came, and the people who came to the great hall to rest were all carried in by the emperor, so the rest of the servants are not clear."


    "Haha ¡­" Yun Ruoleng sneered again and again as he retreated a few steps back. When his feet touched the foot of the bed, he collapsed onto it.


    As a Palace Mistress, the only thing she needed to do was to observe her surroundings. After so many years, the Emperor had countless of beauties, but he had never seen someone as gentle and considerate as her when he returned yesterday. He was even afraid that someone would harm her, so he specifically ordered everyone to not get near the Embroidery Palace.


    Yun Ruoleng held onto her chest and supported herself up from the bed with one hand. The expression on her face was a little pained, and her entire body was weak, as if the medicinal effects of the pill in her body had not disappeared, which was why there were the side effects.


    After Zhu Lan went out, he returned with a meal box in his hands. After entering the door, a few palace maids who were around the same height as him walked in, each of the palace maids holding a set of items for washing up, and standing in a row in the great hall.


    Yun Ruoleng knew what the situation was, even if she wanted to escape, it was impossible, it would be better to follow along.


    "Lady, you can have your meal after washing up." Zhu Lan respectfully looked at Yun Ruoleng with his blessed body. Her small face was brimming with a light smile, as if she had forgotten what had happened just now.


    If he really did forget, then it would be fine. However, if he pretended to forget, then it would be troublesome.

 C298

    Yun Ruoleng was completely immersed in his own thoughts, he had never heard the Zhu Lan who had repeated himself a second time. Zhu Lan was not angry, and carefully approached Yun Ruoleng. His palm shook again and again in front of her, and only then did Yun Ruoleng stop looking at her in a daze.


    With a cold glint in her eyes, Yun Ruoleng impatiently roared: "I want to see the Phoenix Diagram!"


    "Huh?" Zhu Lan frowned: "It''s best for lady not to call the emperor by his name, in case someone else hears."


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression immediately became unsightly to the extreme. Even within the Imperial Palace, there were not that many things on Jun Rushi''s mind. Of course, Yun Ruoleng had no mood to talk to a palace maid right now, so he coldly laughed: "I want to see him! You''re still not going! "


    "His Majesty is busy with official business. Right now, he is gathering with the Minister to discuss business in the study room. Later, His Majesty will come and meet with you." Zhu Lan smiled slightly, he did not care about the burning Yun Ruoleng at all, and waved to the servant girl who was behind him, who was holding a water basin. The young maid slowly stepped forward to bless Yun Ruoleng, and Zhu Lan wet the cloth in the basin, then respectfully gave it to Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng shot a cold glance at Zhu Lan, and knew that there was no point in speaking any further.


    With Zhu Lan''s help, Yun Ruoleng quickly tidied up and changed into a set of white palace clothes with a high collar. With her soft and tender egg-like face, she looked clean and luxurious.


    "The young lady has been sleeping for quite some time. She must be hungry." Zhu Lan was always polite to Yun Ruoleng, unlike ordinary maids who would lower their heads to look at him. From the bottom of his heart, Yun Ruoleng did not like this person, because she gave people the feeling that she was monitoring him.


    This was not an illusion. More accurately, Zhu Lan had been sent here to monitor him.


    After washing up, Yun Ruoleng still felt that his body was soft, as if he didn''t have any strength left. He couldn''t help but take a glance at Zhu Lan. Zhu Lan did not notice that she was actually busy preparing the dishes.


    Although Yun Ruoleng was seated a little far from the table, he could still clearly see the dishes on the table.


    The aura around his body grew colder and colder, and a light flashed in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes. If Zhu Lan was only a manager, then the dishes he took couldn''t all be Heaven''s Initiation dishes. At least one or two should be of Yue Ling.


    However, the dishes prepared by this person were all heaven''s enlightenment, and they were all her favorites.


    "Is the girl not feeling well?" When Zhu Lan turned around to support Yun Ruoleng, he discovered that her expression was not right. He hurriedly stepped forward and extended his hand towards her forehead.


    Yun Ruoleng unceremoniously slapped away the palm that was almost reaching him, "Do you know who I am?"


    "Miss''s background is a secret, this servant doesn''t know." When Zhu Lan said this, his gaze did not miss the expression on her face. Looking at her, she was not lying, he snorted lightly and did not continue speaking.


    Yun Ruoleng was not an idiot, if the girl did not know, then she knew who prepared all these things, but what did he want to catch her twice?


    The first time he went to the courtyard, he directly brought him back to the Imperial Palace. What was he plotting?


    "What''s wrong with you?" Seeing that she did not speak for a long time, Zhu Lan could not help but to be suspicious, and asked softly.


    Zhu Lan''s words brought Yun Ruoleng back to reality. He looked at her with vigilance, then shook his head: "Let''s eat!"


    "Yes sir!" Zhu Lan reached out to help Yun Ruoleng walk to the table and sit down. Yun Ruoleng looked at these familiar dishes and felt his heart tighten.


    But it didn''t seem like it. If it was just to deal with Jun Qingshang, then his situation wouldn''t be so good.


    Yun Ruoleng had something on his mind, he could not eat anymore after eating a little. He wanted to advise against it, but he was scared by Yun Ruoleng''s heavy gaze so much that he trembled, and could only send people to take the things away.


    Because Yun Ruoleng had gone missing for around half a month, all the soldiers in the military camp of Heaven''s Enlightenment fell into a state of panic. Someone who could kidnap someone in the central military camp without alerting the Regent was most likely an invincible existence.


    Thus, the Regent''s entire body was filled with rage. He was suppressing the entire army camp, and no one dared to provoke him.


    "Mistress, there''s news of the wangfei!" An Ying and An Yue walked into the tent together, knelt in front of Jun Qingshang, and then stopped talking as they looked at him.


    Jun Qingshang squinted and looked at the two of them indifferently as her thin lips curled up: "Speak!"


    "The princess was taken away personally by the Yue Ling Emperor. Along the way, they travelled eastwards, and it was enough time to return to the Imperial City in half a month."


    "Huang! "Boom!" Jun Qingshang''s anger quickly spread around, suppressing the entire tent, An Ying and An Yue quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look at Jun Qingshang.


    "Send someone to find out if this is true." Jun Qingshang had yet to completely lose his reason, and only after a long while did he manage to suppress the anger in his heart and command.


    An Ying and An Yue looked at each other for a moment, then quickly left.


    At this moment, after Yun Ruoleng finished his meal, he felt the strength in his body and stood up to slowly walk out. This palace was probably very big, if he could escape from this place, it would depend on whether he had any plans.


    But who knew that just as Yun Ruoleng walked to the door, he was stopped by Zhu Lan who was carrying a cup of tea.


    "Girl, you should rest a bit longer. The cartilage powder on your body has not been completely removed. If you don''t rest now, it will only be harmful to your body." As Zhu Lan said this, he trembled in fear, afraid that Yun Ruoleng would explode in anger after finding out.


    Unexpectedly, Yun Ruoleng was not angry, he only shot a glance at Zhu Lan and continued to walk out. She already knew that she had been drugged. Otherwise, how could her limbs be weak! However, the culprit behind his medicine was not the little girl in front of him. Looking at her terrified expression, Yun Ruoleng knew that it was mostly because of the Phoenix Diagram.


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was ignoring him, Zhu Lan frowned. He still wanted to continue persuading him, but he saw the bright yellow dragon robe Feng Tu walk in, he immediately knelt on the ground and raised up the tray with both hands, bowing respectfully.


    However, Feng Tu did not even spare her a glance as he rushed to support Yun Ruoleng who was ignoring him: "The effects of the Cartilage Powder should only be removed at night, it''s useless even if you want to escape in a hurry. With your current condition, you can''t escape the Imperial Palace at all, much less the Imperial City."


    "Ha!" Yun Ruoleng unrestrainedly shook his hand off: "Even if I have to die, I want to give it a try! Who knows what happens when I try? "


    "Stubborn fool!" The expression in his eyes as he looked at Yun Ruoleng became a lot more complicated.


    didn''t even bother to pay attention to him and continued to walk around him. Huang Tu''s expression became a little ugly and he reached out to grab Yun Ruoleng''s arm and pulled him into his embrace with a slight force. Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to react, he forcefully pulled her into his room.

 C299

    Huang Tu gently placed Yun Ruoleng on the bed, then slowly swiped his finger across Yun Ruoleng''s face and pulled the multicolored hair that had fallen on her face behind her petite ears.


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng was stunned by this scene. She had always thought that the Phoenix Diagram was an extremely well-hidden person, but she never thought that he would even be able to hide this ¡­


    Based on the situation just now, Yun Ruoleng was even more certain of the hidden secrets of the Phoenix Map. No wonder no one came to save her after she was taken away from the army camp.


    "Rest well, don''t run around." Phoenix Diagram smiled at her, a complex look of hesitation flashing past his eyes, but in the next moment, Phoenix Diagram stood up and walked out.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression was extremely ugly, wanting to stop him but he found out that he couldn''t make the slightest sound. His eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he unknowingly fell asleep on the bed.


    An Yue bid his farewell to Jun Qingshang and An Ying. Bringing the two An Ying Guards who had been working with him for many years, they swiftly departed towards the capital of the Yue Ling ¡ª The Imperial City.


    They did not hear the slightest bit of news about Yun Ruoleng. At the beginning, An Yue thought that the Phoenix Diagram had hidden it too well, but later on, even he himself began to suspect that he had made a mistake.


    The Phoenix Diagram did not bring her to the Imperial City at all?


    An Yue felt that the closer he got to the imperial city, the more flustered he became. He was afraid that his judgement was wrong and that it would delay the time to rescue Yun Ruoleng.


    He was busy looking for Yun Ruoleng, and Jun Qingshang was not idle either. This time, Phoenix Map had taken the person away, and the result of his anger was his revenge. As the soul soldiers of Heaven''s Awakening, they naturally vented their anger on those innocent soldiers, and this group of soldiers themselves weren''t Heaven''s Awakening, but ¡­


    Jun Qingshang issued several orders, and surrounded and annihilated the soldiers of Yue Ling. In four or five days, he seized back the two cities he had lost. However, Yue Ling was in a predicament, and disagreements began to appear within the army camp.


    "Your Royal Highness, should we continue our attack?" Yang Xiong rubbed his hands together as he looked at Jun Qingshang, ready to make a move.


    Jun Qingshang coldly glanced at him, did not say a word, and held the most recent secret report in his hand. His brows slightly knitted, and threw the letter in his hand to Yang Xiong: "It''s true that the Phoenix Diagram is in the Imperial City, but Ruo Er is not here ¡­"


    "Wangfei is clever and clever, adding on to that, the Phoenix Diagram doesn''t seem to have any ill intentions towards her, it should be safe." Yang Xiong''s restless heart was like a bucket of cold water, and he lost all interest.


    Jun Qingshang did not say anything, but his expression was somewhat ugly. Waving his hand, he indicated for Yang Xiong to go out, and stood in front of the table with his hands behind his back for a long time. His mind was constantly thinking about why the Phoenix Diagram wanted to catch Yun Ruoleng again and again.


    Yun Ruoleng slowly awakened with a moan like a kitten. Then, as if he had thought of something, he rolled over and sat up from the bed. Looking at the pitch-black area, he slightly frowned.


    The door was pushed open carefully. A young girl holding a lantern walked in and lit the candles in the room with a match. After a while, the room became bright again.


    "The young lady has woken up." The lady was none other than Zhu Lan. After Zhu Lan extinguished the lantern in his hand, he turned around and smiled lightly at her.


    Yun Ruoleng still had a cold expression, his gaze coldly falling on Zhu Lan''s face. "This lady is not in a good mood, please stay away from me!"


    Zhu Lan smiled and replied: "No matter how unhappy this lady''s mood is, she has to use the dinner. Otherwise, the emperor''s mood will be bad, and the bad outcome will take this servant''s life."


    Zhu Lan''s words were not an exaggeration, but when Yun Ruoleng heard these words, he felt that it was extremely ironic. Yun Ruoleng, who was originally in a bad mood, instantly turned malevolent, "If you continue to talk about him, this lady will take your life right now!"


    Zhu Lan''s expression congealed, and seeing that Yun Ruoleng was not joking, he subconsciously glanced outside the door. Hearing this, Huang Tu who was standing outside the door did not get angry, but instead laughed. The spirit demon''s face was full of smiles, he nodded towards Zhu Lan, who happily retreated a few steps.


    These series of actions caused the originally enraged Yun Ruoleng to instantly freeze, as his brain continuously pondered whether or not there was anyone outside the door.


    "It''s useless to be angry." A figure appeared at the doorway. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he seemed to be in a good mood.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly as she ignored him, looking extremely proud. Yun Ruoleng, who was originally angry, suddenly felt a burst of hunger and could not help but take another look at the food in Phoenix Diagram''s hands. "Since you''ve already brought it, this wangfei will no longer be polite."


    "You''re welcome." Huang Tu sat on the side of the table and waved at Yun Ruoleng, gesturing for her to come over.


    Yun Ruoleng arrogantly snorted and did not go over, her gaze landed on the nearby Zhu Lan. Zhu Lan quickly passed over a handkerchief to help Yun Ruoleng clean his hands, and then Yun Ruoleng happily ran to the table and grabbed the food inside the box with one hand. It was the same as the meal she had eaten today, both were of Heaven''s Initiation dishes.


    "Ha!" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "Your Majesty sure is considerate to actually prepare such a good meal for this wangfei."


    "As long as Ruo Er likes it." Phoenix Diagram did not seem to hear Yun Ruoleng''s mocking tone, and laughed: "All these things contain spiritual energy, it is beneficial to you, eat more."


    Yun Ruoleng''s hand that was holding onto the chopsticks paused, and he looked at Phoenix Diagram with a smile that was not a smile.


    Seeing her pick up the chopsticks and put them down, Huang Xuan could not help but be slightly startled: "What happened?"


    "What are you trying to do with me?" Yun Ruoleng said straightforwardly.


    Feng Tu laughed lightly. From start to finish, this little girl had this kind of personality and she was never someone who would suffer a loss. He had been caught twice by surprise and was able to sit down and talk so well.


    "Say something!" Yun Ruoleng looked at his terrified smile and slammed the table.


    "What do you think it is?" The expression on Phoenix Diagram''s face remained the same.


    However, it was not Yun Ruoleng''s turn. The usually calm her started to let her thoughts run wild, and when she regained her senses, she felt cold sweat trickling down her back. This was because as she thought about it, she recalled her dream before she woke up. "Did you kill Qing Sun?"


    "If Jun Qingshang was so easy to kill, we wouldn''t have needed to spend so much energy on him!"


    It was true that Jun Qingshang was not easy to kill, but based on his undetectable method, killing him was not impossible.


    Not knowing why, although Phoenix Diagram had said those words of ridicule, it had caused Yun Ruoleng''s heart to slowly calm down: "If I didn''t kill him, I wanted to use me as a hostage!"


    Phoenix Diagram smiled and did not refute Yun Ruoleng. He took out the dishes in the food box and placed them on the table one by one: "Let''s eat first. We can talk after dinner if there''s anything to say."


    Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly, and began to eat.


    Actually, Yun Ruoleng was not in the mood to eat. If not for to let him relax his vigilance and take this chance to escape, she would not need to put on an act.


    Perhaps with the lesson from last time, Phoenix Diagram had long since been mentally prepared.


    Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s heroic appearance, his brows slightly raised, he slowly poured her a cup of tea and passed it in front of her.


    Yun Ruoleng was not courteous and continued to drink.


    When Zhu Lan saw this, he was stunned. He could not believe what he saw.


    The Emperor was a ruler of the kingdom. He was able to speak to him in such a tone without being punished. Probably only the lady before him was left.


    What was even weirder was that this peerless woman was from the Heavenly Enlightenment Kingdom.


    After eating his fill, Yun Ruoleng carried his stomach and made an inviting gesture towards the Phoenix Map, the intent to chase people away was very obvious.


    The corner of Huang Tu''s mouth raised slightly as he chuckled: "You are really unreasonable!"


    "Don''t take me for a fool." Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "Don''t think that I don''t know how difficult it is to get out of the palace after entering. Furthermore, you have sent an extremely skilled maid to watch over me, it would be weird if it isn''t a house arrest! Since you are so heartless, why should I? "


    "You ¡­" Huang Tu frowned, his expression extremely unsightly. He stared coldly at Yun Ruoleng and the aura around him spread out, causing the air to instantly become oppressive.

 C300

    Facing the furious Phoenix Sect, Yun Ruoleng merely snorted lightly and turned his face away. It was clear that he did not want to continue communicating with the Phoenix Sect.


    Huang Tu''s face fell as he glared at Yun Ruoleng, but in the end, he did not lose his temper. With a cold snort, he stood up and left.


    When the Phoenix Diagram left, Zhu Lan couldn''t help but give Yun Ruoleng a thumbs up. "Miss is truly amazing, I''m afraid that you are the only one in the palace who can drive the emperor away in anger."


    The Phoenix Diagram? Yun Ruoleng looked at Zhu Lan disapprovingly, but did not say a word.


    The little girl in front of him was calm and composed, it was obvious that she was someone who had learnt martial arts. It would be better to say that she was supervising him if he wanted her to serve him.


    Zhu Lan only felt as if all the blood in his body had condensed, this feeling was something only the Emperor by his side could feel, and he couldn''t help but secretly have more thoughts in his heart.


    With slightly furrowed brows, he swept a glance over Zhu Lan, and Yun Ruoleng faintly instructed: "Once you''re done packing up, you may leave."


    "Yes." Zhu Lan waved towards the door and quickly swarmed in with a group of ladies dressed in pink palace attire. They all brought down the things on the table in a well-trained manner.


    Looking at the retreating figures, Yun Ruoleng frowned.


    She knew that luxury wasn''t something that could be achieved in a day or two. The moment the Phoenix Diagram came to the Regent¡¯s Mansion, she knew just how extravagant this man was. The kind of man who didn''t even look at the price when buying things, and would even buy things back at a high price if he took a fancy to them.


    Seeing the palace maids being so well-trained, Yun Ruoleng knew that they were all people that he had carefully selected. It became clear to him that the Phoenix Diagram''s goal was definitely not as simple as her forcing Jun Qingshang to do so.


    Yun Ruoleng, who had slept for a day, was completely awake. Standing in front of the window and looking at the endless night sky, the expression on her face was no longer calm. Although he did not see it, he could still feel the oppressive aura being emitted by her. Zhu Lan wanted to say more, but seeing that she was turning around and ignoring him, he could only shut his mouth and quietly leave the room. He even considerately closed the door for Yun Ruoleng.


    After that, Yun Ruoleng stayed in the Imperial Palace for a few days. The Phoenix Map rarely appeared in front of her, and every time it appeared, it would always be during meals, as if he had done it on purpose.


    One day, Yun Ruoleng was in his room cultivating for a long time without coming out. When the Phoenix Diagram came, he found out that Yun Ruoleng had already found a place to sit down without needing to eat, and now that he had sat down, it took him four hours. If he did not clearly feel the undulations from the spirit energy around him, he would have thought that Yun Ruoleng would not be in the Embroidery Palace anymore.


    After Yun Ruoleng finished cultivating, he only felt that his entire body was sticky and uncomfortable. As for his stomach ¡­ It was as if she had eaten a lot and was extremely full. She did not want to eat any more. When the servant was about to take a bath, he saw the Phoenix Diagram sitting on a nearby stone bench and frowned.


    "He was promoted?" Huang Tu raised his eyebrows, as he rushed towards Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng let out a light snort, then raised her chin as though she remembered something, and looked at Phoenix Diagram with cold eyes: "What does Your Majesty mean? "I don''t understand."


    Compared to those scheming girls, Yun Ruoleng thought that he was a hundred times better at acting than them. Feng Tu looked at Yun Ruoleng with a smile that was not a smile, and raised his finger that was as clear as bones. The people beside him tactfully retreated.


    Phoenix Fairy Beauty stood up and walked towards Yun Ruoleng, step by step. With every step, Yun Ruoleng felt his heart beating faster, and a majestic pressure struck him, and this aura was very similar to that of the other person.


    "Are you the man who wanted my Crimson Pearl Grass?" As soon as Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, his expression was somewhat stiff. He looked at Phoenix Diagram in confusion: "If you are a Dark Mage, why do you want Crimson Pearl Grass? Could it be for someone else to use? "


    Phoenix Fairy Beauty stood half a meter away from Yun Ruoleng and reached out to pat her shoulder, "What is little Ruo Er thinking about? How could I be a Dark Wizard? "


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, his brows knitted together slightly, and the feeling just now seemed to have disappeared along with the wind. Looking at Feng Tu''s charming face, it did not seem like he was lying, only then did Yun Ruoleng relax, and his gaze landed on the Demon Claw on his shoulder. "Take it away!"


    Yun Ruoleng did not even bother to look at him, she had indeed levelled up, but if she did not have the power of a Witch, it was impossible for her to know that she had levelled up. The aura on the Phoenix Diagram was not the aura of a Dark Witch, but a Magus'' aura.


    Yun Ruoleng stared at the Phoenix Diagram for a long time before making his move. Both of his hands congealed, and a burst of majestic golden energy appeared in Yun Ruoleng''s hands, causing her eyes to light up. This was a pure energy, a pure energy rarely seen in the world.


    When Feng Tu was excited, he quickly blocked Yun Ruoleng''s attack. He was in a trance, as if he was looking through her at someone else.


    Yun Ruoleng hated this feeling the most, the movements in her hands became even sharper, but she was depressed because no matter how she fought, it was useless. The Phoenix Diagram was like a ball of cotton, there was no reaction when it hit his body.


    "Phoenix Diagram! What exactly did you trap me here for? " Yun Ruoleng was furious, the movements in his hands were simple and crude.


    After the Phoenix Diagram dispelled its attack, the aura of a dark witch instantly came over, as a dense darkness aura suppressed Yun Ruoleng''s attack.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression congealed, it was really him.


    Phoenix Diagram was also surprised, there were not many who could force him to use Shaman Energy, it was unexpected that this little girl had already reached such a degree, unfortunately, she was still far from being able to do so. There was no point in competing any further. It would only injure her.


    Yun Ruoleng struggled to release the power of the Dark Witch that was imprisoning her, his eyes darkened by quite a bit as he stared fiercely at Huang Tu, as though he wanted to eat him up.


    Phoenix Diagram smiled at her and said, "Cultivate well."


    "Cultivate properly?" Yun Ruoleng was startled, and then seeing that he looked a lot more relaxed, he was surprised: "You are a Dark Mage, the witch had long died because of you. Phoenix Diagram, you wouldn''t be thinking of killing me, right!?


    "No!" Huang Feng glanced at Yun Ruoleng unwillingly: "I admit that the witch''s death is related to me, but I did not kill them. It was because their power was not pure and their level was not high enough to create them. If you do not wish to die, you must at least cultivate to the God Transforming Realm. "


    "Haha ¡­" Yun Ruoleng laughed in ridicule. God Transforming World? Although she was already at the peak of rank 9, she was still five levels lower than the God Realm. The later she got, the harder it was for her to cultivate.


    The Phoenix Diagram could clearly feel Yun Ruoleng''s thoughts, but he did not have the intention to change his mind.


    However, would Yun Ruoleng allow him to leave so easily?

 C301

    To be honest, with Yun Ruoleng''s strength, it was definitely impossible for him to leave the Phoenix Map behind. But Phoenix Fairy Beauty had different feelings towards her, so he would definitely listen to some of Yun Ruoleng''s words.


    "Stop!" You can leave! Let me go first! " Yun Ruoleng suppressed the anger in his heart, and looked at the rope like black power that was protecting his body with sunken eyes.


    Phoenix Diagram looked at her silently and lifted his finger to untie the dark spirit energy binding her.


    Yun Ruoleng angrily wanted to attack again, but Phoenix Diagram dodged Yun Ruoleng''s attack with a flash, and frowned slightly: "Still coming?"


    "Humph!" Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly, he continued to attack, with each attack becoming more and more powerful, the Phoenix Diagram was forced to retreat again and again.


    After Yun Ruoleng heard about the Witch''s premature death, he became truly angry, and the movements of his hands became even sharper. Although the Phoenix Diagram was constantly dodging, it did not gain any benefit, and the previously relaxed Phoenix Diagram also became more and more serious.


    "You''ve killed so many people. If you don''t give me an explanation today, I won''t let you go!" Yun Ruoleng was drenched in sweat from exhaustion, but she did not say anything. She had lost a lot of power, but she still did not give up.


    Phoenix Fairy Beauty dodged her attack so her eyebrows raised: "What do you want to say? Was it because they didn''t work hard enough, and blamed me? "


    "Cultivation depends on talent. What can you do about poor talent?" Yun Ruoleng flipped his body and fiercely closed in on the Phoenix Diagram. The Phoenix Diagram was startled, it never thought that she would be able to teleport, this was a pretty good spirit technique.


    Unfortunately for them, Yun Ruoleng still missed his target. Looking at the man standing in front of him, he couldn''t help but frown: "I know they''re going to die, then why did you capture them?"


    "If you don''t work hard, then just become other people''s nourishment!" "To be able to become her nourishment is also the only use they have in this world."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes widened as he looked at the Phoenix Diagram with a look of disbelief. That didn''t mean they would transfer their power to others, and those witches would disappear along with the power.


    The Phoenix Diagram was actually such a sinister person, she had misjudged him in the past.


    Yun Ruoleng only felt his entire body turning cold, because he had exhausted too much of his Wu Li energy, and his body was unstable, so he directly fainted and fell onto the ground.


    The calm Zhu Lan went forward to help Yun Ruoleng up, then nodded towards Feng Tu and walked into the room.


    "Your Majesty ¡­"


    After Zhu Lan had settled Yun Ruoleng down, Huang Tu walked in. A complex expression flashed across her unfathomable phoenix eyes as she looked at Yun Ruoleng''s restless sleeping face and asked softly: "Is the thing ready?"


    "One more thing." Zhu Lan lowered his head, not daring to look at the Phoenix Diagram. His fingers continuously stirred the corners of his clothes, "This subordinate has already passed down the order, this item is probably hard to find. After all, it''s a sacred item."


    "After the death of the Senior Magi couple, this item has disappeared from the world. So, it''s reasonable for us to be slow in finding it." Phoenix Diagram gently sighed, "I just don''t know if I can wait until that day."


    "This subordinate will definitely do everything I can to find the Immortal-Suppressing Orb." Zhu Lan and Feng Tu''s words weren''t loud, but the unconscious Yun Ruoleng still heard them. Even though she was unconscious, her mechanisms were still awake, and after hearing those words, Yun Ruoleng was completely stunned.


    "Who is Nian''er?" His mind was filled with these words.


    In the camp of the Heaven''s Enlightenment border, Jun Qingshang sat inside a tent while the two men in black knelt beside him. The atmosphere was extremely weird, Jun Qingshang smiled, but the killing intent in his eyes could not be hidden, and the two kneeling there did not change at all.


    "Where?" Jun Qingshang''s voice was very cold, and the air seemed to have frozen over.


    The black clothed man slowly opened his mouth and said, "My prince, in the mountain range closest to the Imperial City, there is an extremely large natural ice cellar. It is said that dead people would not rot inside it."


    "No wonder!" Jun Qingshang slowly stood up and looked at the two of them on the ground with a smile that was not a smile, "How many people are there?"


    "Because it is the Royal Sacred Land, very few people would go there. There are only one or two thousand soldiers guarding the mountain. They would patrol to the ice cellar every half an incense stick of time."


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head in approval, then waved his hand: "Continue to monitor."


    "Yes sir!" The black clothed man left while Jun Qingshang stood where he was with his hands behind his back, looking gloomy and terrifying. Since Huang Tu had taken away his beloved wife, he did not mind destroying his sister''s corpse.


    Compared to the dark side of the Phoenix Diagram, Jun Qingshang was far more powerful. As long as he could save Yun Ruoleng, he did not care what methods he would use.


    Yun Ruoleng woke up muddle-headed and felt weak all over. Because he had expended too much energy just now, he now felt that his body was completely empty.


    It was unknown if it was because of the actual combat, but when Yun Ruo had filled her dantian, there was a "kacha" sound, as if something had shattered, followed by a "kacha" sound. "After five or six consecutive sounds, she was pleasantly surprised to discover that she had advanced again!


    As a top-notch Magus, breaking through was something that made people extremely happy. She had successfully broken through to become a Grand Magus.


    Before she could recover from her joy, Yun Ruoleng suddenly thought of his current predicament and couldn''t help but laugh bitterly. If they couldn''t beat him in a fight, they could only run. They didn''t know if the palace could be as easy to escape as the mansion they were in.


    The first thing Yun Ruoleng did when she ran was to familiarize herself with the terrain. She narrowed her eyes and then directly got up to walk around, which surprised Zhu Lan, and never thought that the young lady would start to wander around the courtyard the moment she woke up. Standing there, she jumped and jumped, as though she was training.


    However, Yun Ruoleng was always in her line of sight, and as long as she did not run, Zhu Lan would not mind. After finishing a set of gymnastics, Yun Ruoleng stretched his body and turned around to look at Zhu Lan: "I''ve been here for so long, but I don''t know what the palace of Yue Ling is like. Can you take me to see it?"


    Zhu Lan looked at Yun Ruoleng carefully, seeing that she did not have any other thoughts, he nodded: "Then young lady should change into clothes! This outfit is too plain. It''s hard to avoid being obstructed when you are outside. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, this servant will help you change to another set. "


    Although Yun Ruoleng did not like complicated palace attire, why not?


    Zhu Lan was a clever servant girl, with a few movements, he tied up Yun Ruoleng''s hair with a bundle of golden steps that was sent by Feng Huang Teng on top of his head.


    Although there would always be people they didn''t want to meet when they went out for a stroll, they were probably lucky. There weren''t many people on the road when the sun was high up in the sky.

 C302

    Yun Ruoleng strolled around the imperial garden leisurely. After feeling that there was nothing to see, he went back. But with her appearance, it was more or less seen, and the rumors spread like wings through the palace.


    "What did you say?" At the Lotus Pond Palace near the Embroidery Palace, an exquisite looking woman stood in the pavilion at the center of the pavilion. Her hand rested on the railing at the edge of the pavilion. "Is that woman even more beautiful than Yaoji?"


    "Yaoji can''t even be compared to her. She has a pair of eyes that seem to contain a smile yet not a smile, and her figure is extremely standard. This servant has never seen such a beautiful woman before. "


    "Who is she?" The woman''s face was ferocious: "Investigate it for me!"


    "This ¡­" The servant girl hesitated.


    The woman slapped the servant girl''s face: "Useless trash, what''s the use of me taking you!"


    "Please calm your anger, Empress." The servant girl covered her face and wailed, "It''s not that this servant doesn''t want to investigate, it''s that this servant has no place to start. She lives in the Embroidery Palace, where all the people were taken away by the emperor.


    The woman''s expression became more and more ferocious. She tightened her grip on the railing. It seemed that she was extremely angry.


    The servant girl shrunk her head, not daring to make another sound.


    The commotion over here wasn''t too loud, so naturally no one knew about it. After Yun Ruoleng returned to the Embroidery Palace, he started to cultivate again, as if he had been struck by the Phoenix Map. After looking at it, he obediently withdrew.


    The Yue Ling palace didn''t seem to be anything special at all, it should be around the same size as the Heaven''s Enlightenment palace. According to her memories today, if she could find the wall, she would be able to escape.


    Night was about to fall, Yun Ruoleng ate dinner like usual and cultivated for a while, then called for someone to prepare something for his bath, washed it for him, and then went back to bed.


    During the entire day, other than training, Yun Ruoleng did not have any other changes to his body. He did not think too much into it, and quietly sat at the entrance at night, observing his surroundings.


    Yun Ruoleng released his spirit sense and could clearly feel the movements of the people outside, looking at where Zhu Lan was sitting, his face immediately turned black, why is this girl sitting at the door! How was she going to get out if that happened?


    Yun Ruoleng slowly sat up from the bed, his gaze looking at the shadow. He couldn''t leave from the front, could it be that he couldn''t leave from the back? No matter how careful Zhu Lan was, he couldn''t stop his teleportation!


    After she tidied up her clothes, she left the room in a flash. In a few flashes, she was already in front of the palace wall. Yun Ruoleng hid behind a big tree and observed his surroundings. He lowered his body and avoided a group of patrolling guards.


    Yun Ruoleng slowly got up and stuck his tongue out at the back of the patrolling guards, and then...


    "Bam!" Yun Ruoleng held her head in pain. She wanted to pass through the wall, but realized that it was impossible. Her forehead was directly installed on the wall and there was a large bump on it.


    What was even worse was that Yun Ruoleng''s attack had caught the attention of the patrol.


    "Who is it?" The patrol quickly turned around, and looked over, Yun Ruoleng did not care about the pain.


    With a "sou" sound, he teleported away. When the patrol arrived, they did not discover anything. They only felt puzzled and did not pursue the matter. They continued to patrol.


    Yun Ruoleng hid in an alleyway not far away and watched as they left before returning to the palace walls. He reached out and touched the walls, realizing that there were no problems, and using teleportation found that he could not exit, he frowned and used his spiritual sense to continuously scan the walls, the more he scanned, the uglier his complexion became.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face was so dark that even droplets of water could be seen. There was actually an array formation on the palace wall that was specifically designed to restrain Shaman Energy. No wonder she could not succeed a few times. Yun Ruoleng was furious in his heart, he returned to his room several times.


    Zhu Lan did not know that Yun Ruoleng had gone out before, but on the morning of the next day, when Yun Ruoleng woke up, he felt some pain on his forehead, and did not know if his injuries would be discovered by others.


    Zhu Lan knocked on the door from outside and a clear and beautiful voice came in: "Is Miss awake?"


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng laid on the bed in frustration, but the door opened in response. A set of black and white female disciple clothing was worn by Zhu Lan, vividly showing her slim figure.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up: You''re going out?


    "The emperor wants to lead troops into battle. We''re leaving at noon today, it''s getting late. This servant will help young lady wash up so that we can follow the army and set off." Zhu Lan''s words caused Yun Ruoleng''s eyes to light up. Although he did not know why he needed Huang Tu to personally lead the way, this was still an opportunity. It was not impossible for him to escape halfway.


    Yun Ruoleng''s plans had worked out so well, but it was a pity that she had completely forgotten that the Phoenix Diagram was a sinister person, how could she let her plans succeed?


    Zhu Lan seemed to have not noticed the wound on Yun Ruoleng''s forehead. As he helped her put on her clothes, he said: "This trip is extremely dangerous.


    Yun Ruoleng did not say a word, allowing Zhu Lan to say what he wanted, but his heart was thinking about a completely different matter.


    After washing his face and rinsing his mouth, Zhu Lan finally realized that there were some bruises on his forehead. He furrowed his brows slightly, and carefully observed Yun Ruoleng''s forehead. Did you run into him somewhere? "


    "Huh?" Yun Ruoleng touched his forehead in panic.


    "Hiss ¡­" It still hurt a little, but he had to pretend it was the same. "It must be because he accidentally bumped into the corner of the table when he was picking things up tonight!"


    "Then you have to be careful in the future. It won''t be good if your face is disfigured." Zhu Lan smiled slightly and took out a porcelain bottle from the box on the table. He opened it gently and a faint medicinal smell wafted into Yun Ruoleng''s nose.


    When Yun Ruoleng saw it, he immediately understood that this girl was going to apply medicine on him! There was no need for her to refuse. She smiled and waited for Zhu Lan to rub the ointment on her forehead.


    Zhu Lan smiled slightly: "This is skin jade paste, rubbing it once or twice will make your skin as smooth as water. This kind of ointment only exists in the Heavenly Imperial Family, and every year, the Yue Ling will exchange for a few hundred bottles. "


    "I know." The last time Yun Ruoleng was injured, he used two big boxes.


    Zhu Lan nodded her head, she had forgotten the history of this lady, there were as many of these things as she wanted!


    Yun Ruoleng did not even notice the change in Zhu Lan''s expression as he stood up and walked out. Zhu Lan placed the ointment in his pocket and quickly chased after him, closely following behind.


    "Miss, don''t be impatient. It would be too late for you to leave with breakfast." Zhu Lan stopped her from continuing to walk towards the Palace of Embroidery, "You don''t need to eat breakfast, I don''t know when you''ll be using it for lunch."

 C303

    Yun Ruoleng frowned, feeling that what she said made sense, he turned and returned to his room. Unbeknownst to Yun Ruoleng, she had fainted once again after eating this meal.


    A figure dressed in bright yellow dragon robes, Feng Tu, walked in from outside. Zhu Lan bowed slightly.


    "Ready?" The corner of his mouth raised slightly. Just to be safe, Feng Tu poured a cup of water into Yun Ruoleng''s mouth, and then, with a satisfied expression, he picked Yun Ruoleng up and carried her.


    "Let''s go!" With an order, Huang Tu left in big strides. Zhu Lan closed the door at the back and quickly followed behind him. At the entrance of the Embroidery Palace, there was a low-key, luxurious carriage standing at the entrance. After Huang Tu walked out, Yu Yang quickly lifted the carriage''s curtain for him.


    The rest of the carriages were all coming from different directions. The three carriages were all the same, and the people driving the carriages were all the guards that Phoenix Sect trusted the most, so no one knew which carriage belonged to him.


    Jun Qingshang''s pace of attacking the Yue Ling became even faster, to the point that it was almost as if every three days, he would go to the city and every two days, every county and now.


    The journey which was originally ten days, had been forcefully shortened by two days. When Yun Ruoleng woke up, she had initially thought that it was a good opportunity but now, it seemed that it was merely another form of imprisonment for the Phoenix Diagram.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face turned ugly. This mansion was like a palace, one could see the walls but could not exit. What made Yun Ruoleng even more angry was that Phoenix Diagram actually did not appear in front of her for a few days straight.


    And right now, Feng Tu, who was being held in hatred by Yun Ruoleng, was currently standing on top of the city gate tower with a dark face.


    "He attacked four of our cities and twelve counties. He, Jun Qingshang, is very good! "Very good!" Huang Tu formed a fist with one hand and smashed on the city wall.


    "Your Majesty, please calm your anger ¡­" As a marshal, Han Mo had suffered many crushing defeats to make him seem dispirited.


    Phoenix Fairy Beauty turned around and kicked him, sending Han Mo flying two or three meters away. He held onto his chest and looked at Phoenix Fairy Beauty in pain, "Please don''t be angry, Your Majesty! This subject knows that he is guilty, but this subject has done his best for it! "


    "Do my best?" Phoenix Diagram laughed coldly: "You did your best to give up the mountains and rivers that our ancestors had taken down to us? You did your best to take my soldiers to their deaths? They knew that they were no match for him, but why didn''t they think of defending the city? Han Mo! "Don''t tell me that''s useless!"


    Han Mo was scolded speechless. Huang Tu turned around and continued to look at the arrogant soldiers in front of the city with a cold smile on his face: "There is a way to force them to retreat!"


    "The Emperor ¡­"


    Phoenix Diagram raised the Han Mo that was about to speak, turned around and walked down the city wall.


    After being kicked, Han Mo felt a piercing pain in his chest. Soon, a mouthful of fresh blood gushed out from his mouth. He hurriedly wiped it clean and chased after Zhang Xuan.


    The soldiers who were already standing at the foot of the city wall looking down at the city walls below were all kneeling on the ground in unison.


    Phoenix Diagram raised his arms slightly: "Everyone, rise! We will face today''s battle together with all of you, and everyone should work together to help Yue Ling repel the enemy! "


    The Heaven''s Initiation was unstoppable, he would not allow Jun Qingshang''s plan to succeed! Huang Tu''s words still had some effect, the originally low morale had become excited by his words, and Huang Tu was satisfied with the result. With a command, the city gates opened, and the moat was placed down, and Huang Tu rode on his armored horse, leading the way out of the city.


    Jun Qingshang stood in the middle of the army and could clearly see the changes occurring at the city gate. Seeing the person who was the first, his mouth rose in a charming manner, and Yang Xiong''s eyes lit up: "My prince, is there no one else on the Yue Ling? The Emperor is actually leading the troops himself. "


    Jun Qingshang lightly glanced at Yang Xiong, and spoke snappily: "Tianqi and Yue Ling are two great nations of Xi Ze, and you think that there''s no one here yet? Phoenix Sect did not leak any information about this expedition, so they definitely have a reason for coming. "


    The expression on Yang Xiong''s face slightly condensed, his expression also became serious, "What is he planning to do?"


    Jun Qingshang did not say a word. Seeing Huang Tu''s aggressive look, his expression became much more serious.


    "Jun Qingshang!" Feng Tu still looked like he was playing with the world, he pulled his horse and walked back and forth, and looked at Jun Qingshang with a smile that was not a smile: "We haven''t fought one on one for a long time, how about today''s competition?"


    "Your Yue Ling is always doing stuff that steals chickens and dogs. My Prince is open and upright, how can we be your partners!" Before Jun Qingshang could say anything, Yang Xiong who was seated at the side could not hold it in anymore.


    "Jun Qingshang, you don''t dare?" The Phoenix Diagram used provocation, but did not get Jun Qingshang''s reply completely.


    Jun Qingshang sat on Treading the Snow, and looked at the Phoenix Diagram with a smile that was not a smile. His gaze seemed to be able to see through him. He could not help but knit his brows slightly. He thought that he was about the same as him, but now it seemed that he was still lacking by a little, especially his aura, which was far inferior to his.


    What Huang Tu did not know was that when Jun Qingshang looked at him, he was shocked, and then he started to be cautious, how could a person who could endure for so many years be a simple person?


    Jun Qingshang gently stroked Treading on the Snow''s mane and nodded to An Ying who was beside him. An Ying spoke but stopped after, as Jun Qingshang had already rode his horse out of the crowd and was walking right in front of the army. He looked at the unruly looking Phoenix Diagram and laughed: "It is useless to try to goad this king into doing so, since you want this king to help you out, but this king has three conditions!"


    "Speak!" Huang Tu snorted, as if he knew what he was going to say, he added: "As long as it is not related to that girl, you can do whatever you want with the rest."


    Jun Qingshang''s expression was a little ugly, and after hearing what Huang Tu said, his eyebrows knitted even tighter. Jun Qingshang''s grip on the reins loosened, loosened up, and finally opened his mouth again: "Alright! Number one point: No one is allowed to shoot an arrow in the dark in a fight between you and me. If anyone dares to do so, don''t blame This King for being rude! "


    "Agreed!" Both sides were powerful figures, so they definitely didn''t want to be hurt by the Dark Arrow. Since Jun Qingshang had brought it up, the Phoenix Diagram naturally would not reject.


    "Second, the victor is the king and the loser is the bandit. The battle between the two of us represents the fate of this city. If you lose, let the city know. If I lose, I''ll return a city to you. What do you say?"


    Jun Qingshang continued to speak: The third point is to cut off the loser side and let the city retreat 300 miles away before setting up their camp!


    "How preposterous!" Han Mo, who had followed him out of the city, was immediately enraged!

 C304

    However, Feng Tu and Jun Qingshang did not speak to him at all, and Feng Tu immediately nodded in agreement. Han Mo immediately became anxious. "Your Majesty ¡­"


    Huang Tu turned his head and glared at him: "Will we lose to him? "What a joke!"


    Han Mo stared blankly, lowering his head, not daring to continue speaking.


    did not hesitate, his legs held tightly onto the horse''s abdomen, and the two of them ran towards the center of the battlefield at the same time. Jun Qingshang was holding onto his golden dragon spear, and Huang Tu had a large blade in his hand.


    Starting from the second round where they merged into one, the Phoenix Diagram used a fierce attack, but did not expect Jun Qingshang to resolve it so easily.


    In the third round, Jun Qingshang started his attack, but his attack power was not strong, sometimes slow, and sometimes slow.


    What the Phoenix Map did not expect was that Jun Qingshang''s first few rounds were like a test, and then, the attacks of the two people became even more intense.


    After who knows how many rounds, Jun Qingshang used a fake movement to move the big blade away from the Phoenix Diagram, the long spear rested on Phoenix Diagram''s neck, and gave a devilish smile: "I didn''t expect your cultivation to be so high! "He really is secretive."


    Huang Tu looked at the spear on his neck and sneered: "So what if you win?"


    "According to the rules ¡­"


    Feng Tu pushed away the spear on Jun Qingshang''s neck and sneered, then grabbed onto the horse''s belly and returned back to his own camp. Jun Qingshang frowned, tugging at the reins of the horse, his face sank: "Your majesty, the Emperor of Yue Ling, he wouldn''t possibly not admit it, right?"


    "Jun Qingshang, do you think that the mountains and rivers are more important or the beauties are more important?" Feng Tu looked at Jun Qingshang with a smile that was not a smile, as if he did not take his words to heart. Lifting his arm, Jun Qingshang frowned, as he looked at him vigilantly.


    With a wave of his hand, a change occurred on the city gate tower. A woman wearing a light purple dress stood on top of the city gate tower, her eyes hazy with tears as she looked at him.


    Even though Jun Qingshang was far away, he could still recognize the person in one glance. His heart trembled and his gaze darkened: "Phoenix Diagram, what are you trying to do!"


    "It''s very simple!" Huang Tu raised his finger slightly and the woman was led down the city gate tower.


    Blue veins popped out of Jun Qingshang''s forehead, and his face ashened: "Speak!"


    "Give me back all of my Yue Ling and the ten cities with Heaven''s Enlightenment." Phoenix Fairy Beauty spoke carelessly, but the warriors behind Jun Qingshang had long started to discuss with each other.


    Yang Xiong''s face was so dark that drops of water dripped from it, "Your Highness, you can''t! How many warriors'' blood had the city been exchanged for? "If you do this for a woman ¡­"


    "Phoenix Diagram!" Jun Qingshang interrupted Yang Xiong''s words coldly, "Do you think that your words are still worth this king''s trust? The previous battle was a complete scam! With that as a proof, This King will no longer be deceived! "


    "Heh." Feng Tu laughed lightly and waved his hand: "We will give you three days, but whether or not you change it will all depend on you!"


    It was a threat, a blatant threat.


    The blue veins on his forehead expanded, and his eyes turned blood-red, as if he was about to kill someone in the next moment.


    Although he did not win, he did not lose. In fact, he was very happy in his heart, as if he had already thought of this result.


    Returning to the city, what came toward him was a palm strike. Huang Tu frowned slightly as his body brushed past the palm strike and he coldly looked at the person who was attacking him. When he saw it, his face froze: "Ruo ¡­"


    "Take him down!"


    "How dare you!" Phoenix Diagram looked at Han Mo behind him and said coldly, "You dare to touch our people!"


    "Your Majesty, she ¡­"


    "I am willing!" Huang Tu stepped forward and tried to pull Yun Ruoleng''s hand, but he was shocked by her cold gaze. His heart trembled, was she blaming him?


    "I''m willing!" Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly, turned and left.


    This left the group of people watching with concerned looks.


    Huang Tu gave an embarrassed cough, he turned his head and stared at the person behind him, and said coldly: "Why aren''t you leaving! Waiting for punishment? "


    The generals did not dare to stay! Without a second thought, he turned around and ran over with his men. Phoenix Fairy Beauty lost face in front of everyone, but he could do nothing about Yun Ruoleng. He clearly understood why Yun Ruoleng attacked him.


    Sighing slightly, Feng Tu brought his personal guards and walked in the direction of Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng on the other hand, angrily walked forward. Knowing that he could not escape, he decided not to flee and directly returned to his residence.


    She stepped into the mansion and the phoenix diagram immediately followed behind her. The people within the mansion were a little suspicious as they saw the two people walk in one after the other. When added with the phoenix diagram''s expression when entering, it was clearly a little unsightly and no one dared to provoke him.


    Along the way, they walked to the courtyard where Yun Ruoleng lived, and their eyes met. The two were stunned for a moment, and Feng Tu reacted first, saying: "Today''s matter ¡­"


    "You have your own plans, I am just your captive. The Emperor is the son of heaven, there is no need to explain it to me!" Yun Ruoleng unceremoniously interrupted Huang Tu with a cold laugh.


    Huang Tu opened his mouth, wanting to explain but was unable to. His brows knitted as he turned around and walked out.


    Yun Ruoleng sat in the courtyard, his face so dark that even droplets could be seen. What he had done today could tell that the Phoenix Diagram was a cunning little scumbag, and using her to exchange for a city might just be a trap.


    In the Heaven''s Initiation Army''s camp, Jun Qingshang sat in his tent, quietly looking at the four or five generals beside him, his expression as calm as ever.


    "Your Highness, you can''t change it! "Princess Hua-Yang is important, but it would ruin the hearts of the warriors. They used their lives to buy the city and gave it to someone else ¡­"


    "If the city is gone, we can take it back. If the people are gone, we really are gone!" Yang Xiong had originally been opposed to it. He didn''t know how she came to an understanding that she would actually maintain a united front with Jun Qingshang.


    "But so many people''s lives are gone, and this lord has given the city away for a woman. Not to mention whether the emperor will agree to it, even if he did, we soldiers will not agree to it!"


    "Princess''s value is not as simple as ten cities!"


    "Enough!" Jun Qingshang''s face was extremely unsightly. No matter how they fought, there was still no conclusion to it.


    Everyone''s gaze fell upon him as they waited for him to make the final decision. Most of the generals did not wish for Jun Qingshang to give up the city that he obtained, and only Yang Xiong supported exchanging with Yun Ruoleng.


    Jun Qingshang sneered, "This king has already made up his mind, and is willing to exchange the ten cities for Heaven''s Enlightenment!"


    "Prince ¡­"


    "No need to say anymore!" Jun Qingshang berated sternly, her cold eyes flashed, "We can take back the city if we give up, there''s no point speaking any further!"


    "Prince, think twice!" Most of the generals kneeled on the ground and begged Jun Qingshang. Without changing his expression, Jun Qingshang turned around and waved his hand, signaling them to leave.

 C305

    Everyone walked out of the tent with their heads hanging low. They huddled together and started to discuss how to solve this problem.


    Yang Xiong stood inside the tent, and watched Jun Qingshang''s back as his expression changed again and again: "Prince, using the Heaven''s Enlightenment City''s ten cities to exchange for a wangfei isn''t impossible, it''s just that the Phoenix Map is really willing to trade?"


    "Whether it''s sincere or fake, This King will definitely not let him obtain these ten cities." Jun Qingshang clenched his hands tightly at the side, his expression turning ugly.


    Yang Xiong lowered his head, not daring to speak anymore. After all, this matter was indeed hard to say. Jun Qingshang had always had the ability to think for himself when doing things, and would not use emotions. The generals were dissatisfied.


    Time passed minute after minute, and the air in the manor seemed to have frozen. Yun Ruoleng leaned against the bed, holding onto a book on the history of Yue Ling, he read ten lines at a glance.


    Huang Tu was sitting at a table not far from the bed, looking at her with a heavy gaze.


    The two of them had already sat like this for more than an hour, neither of them willing to speak first.


    "Reporting to Your Majesty, the marshal has arrived at the study room." A''Zheng, who was standing at the door, said in all seriousness, as if he didn''t feel the strange atmosphere inside.


    Seeing that there was not the slightest change in Yun Ruoleng''s expression, Phoenix Diagram frowned slightly, stood up and said: "It''s not good to read too many books, focus on combining your strength easily."


    Yun Ruoleng did not even bother to pay attention to him, as he continued to flip through the books in his hands. Huang Tu was not angry, he slowly walked out, and when he reached the door, he turned to look at Yun Ruoleng before leaving.


    Once the Phoenix Diagram left, Yun Ruoleng immediately threw the book onto the bed. She pouted her lips, because the Phoenix Diagram had a lot of thoughts, I hope that the Duke won''t give him ten cities for nothing this time.


    What Yun Ruoleng did not expect was that inside the study, Han Mo handed a letter to the Phoenix Diagram with an extremely strange expression. The Phoenix Diagram glanced at him and received the letter, but did not open it in time: "Someone from Heaven''s Enlightenment?"


    "Yes, the envoy left the letter at the city gate before leaving." It was precisely because of this that Han Mo''s expression became incomparably strange, and he lowered his head, not daring to even glance at the Phoenix Diagram.


    The moment the Phoenix Diagram opened the letter, its face lit up, and its mouth raised in a demonic smile: "Jun Qingshang really has you!"


    Han Mo thought that Huang Tu would be angry enough to kill someone, but he did not expect Huang Tu to smile so casually. His smile was not one of mockery, but a smile that showed that his scheme had succeeded.


    Han Mo expressed his puzzlement.


    Of course the Phoenix Diagram would not give him an explanation, it just turned and left. Han Mo only felt that the Phoenix Diagram was inexplicable, and he shook his head helplessly as he left.


    When Feng Tu had an unfathomable smile on his face as he stepped into Yun Ruoleng''s courtyard once again, he was actually stopped by Zhu Lan. He could not help but ask: "What happened?"


    "The lady is taking a bath, and says that the king has come to ask his subordinate to stop him." Zhu Lan knew that the Phoenix Diagram still cared a lot about Yun Ruoleng, so he changed Yun Ruoleng''s words to be a little more tactful.


    Feng Tu''s eyes relaxed for a moment, and he chuckled: "Didn''t we just ignore them when we left? How did he get into the bath just by turning around? Don''t tell me he''s trying to play some tricks? "


    "This ¡­" Zhu Lan shook his head, thinking that he had arranged for all the servants to be chased out, he frowned: "Young lady is really bathing, I just drove all the people that I sent out out out."


    Seeing her nervous, Huang Tu smiled and waved her down. He casually sat on a chair on the porch and waited for Yun Ruoleng to come out of the bath.


    Time passed minute after minute and second after second, the color of the sun gradually dimmed.


    "Zhu Lan." Huang Tu shouted.


    Zhu Lan, who was carrying the food, heard it. His entire body tensed up and he quickly walked to the Phoenix Map.


    "You go and see why she hasn''t come out yet?" The sky was dark, and no one dared to go up to fill in the lanterns. Zhu Lan responded and retreated a few steps before turning around and entering Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    The room was very dark, and because there was no light in the room, it was impossible to see what was going on inside. Fortunately, Zhu Lan was a martial artist, so he was able to find a table''s position with his senses. He placed the food box down and fished out a fire piston to light up the candle in the candlestick.


    Yun Ruoleng who was leaning on the bed slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was clear to the bottom and he looked at Zhu Lan with panic.


    Don''t look at Yun Ruoleng, and slightly bow: "Miss, you must be hungry! Would you like to eat something first? "


    Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned, a trace of impatience flashed across her peerlessly beautiful face. "He left?"


    "His Majesty seems to have something to talk to you about. He''s waiting for you at the door." Zhu Lan smiled, concealing the awkward emotion on his face.


    "Let him go! I don''t want to see him! " Yun Ruoleng''s gaze suddenly became extremely sharp, and she spoke coldly, immediately causing Zhu Lan to feel as though his entire body was being locked, and that he was not feeling well at all.


    "If you don''t want to see it, I''m afraid it''ll be too late." A voice that was not a smile instantly saved Zhu Lan, who turned around and retreated towards Phoenix Diagram with a slight bow.


    Huang Tu walked forward with large strides and arrived in front of Yun Ruoleng''s bed. He hooked a round stool in front of him with his legs and sat down: "Ruo Er doesn''t want to know why we went and came back?"


    "Even if I didn''t ask you, you would." Yun Ruoleng said calmly.


    Huang Tu laughed out loud: "Little Ruo Er is so smart, we don''t even know what to say."


    "If you have nothing else to say, please leave!" Yun Ruoleng let out a cold laugh, and scoffed at the praise of the Phoenix Diagram.


    The smile on Phoenix Diagram''s face faded slightly as he took out the letter from his sleeve and passed it to Yun Ruoleng. "I hope that you can continue to speak to us in this tone after reading it."


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression changed when he saw the letter that Huang Tu handed to him: "What is this?"


    Huang Tu raised his eyebrows: "You''ll know once you see for yourself."


    Yun Ruoleng stared coldly at the Phoenix Diagram, as though he wanted to see what exactly was on his face. However, after he looked for a good while, his eyes grew sore, yet he still could not see a single change.


    With a light snort, he directly snatched away the letter from the Phoenix Diagram''s hands and opened it. Upon seeing this, his rosy face instantly turned deathly white.


    "No ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s hand trembled, the letter fell from his hand onto his leg, his eyes bloodshot he pointed at Huang Tu and roared: "You made it up! He wouldn''t do this to me. "


    "Between the mountains and the beauties, will he choose you?" Phoenix Diagram laughed coldly, "Those cities were exchanged with the blood of warriors for him. Women can have them at any time, but those cities that were lost are different. "You are a wise man. Can''t you see the truth?"


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng naturally understood in her heart, it was just that she wasn''t willing to believe it. After all, Jun Qingshang had promised her that he would never leave her. But facing Huang Tu''s accusation, she was unable to say a single word.

 C306

    "Why are you lying to yourself?" Feng Tu laughed bitterly as he raised his hand to wipe the tears at the corner of her eyes. However, she slapped him away.


    Angry like a cat, his slightly red eyes stared widely: "Get out! Get out! I don''t want to hear your nonsense! "


    "Nonsense?" Huang Tu laughed instead of getting angry: "Is this nonsense that you don''t know? The facts are in front of you and you''re unwilling to admit it. This letter is his personal letter and no matter how capable I am, it''s impossible for me to do it. "


    Yun Ruoleng''s strength seemed to have been drained, tears flowed down his face slowly and he held the letter tightly. The current Yun Ruoleng was like a porcelain doll that was about to break to pieces, causing him to feel pity but not dare to touch her.


    The atmosphere became a little oppressive. Yun Ruoleng, in a trance, muttered: "Can I see him for a bit?"


    "You want to confront him?" Phoenix Diagram was startled, and when he saw her nod her head, his eyebrows knitted together.


    Yun Ruoleng reached out to grab Phoenix Diagram''s sleeve and anxiously said. "I won''t run.


    Seeing his expression, Yun Ruoleng could not help but let out a bitter laugh: "If you don''t want to, I will think of a way to find him."


    Phoenix Diagram''s expression froze. After pondering for a moment, he gnashed his teeth and said: "Alright, I will arrange it!"


    Even though Phoenix Diagram was cunning, he would definitely do the things that he had promised. Yun Ruoleng was not afraid of the Phoenix Diagram reneging on her promise, and at the moment, she was also not in a good mood. She hugged her knees and sat on the bed, staring in a certain direction.


    Zhu Lan walked in from outside. Seeing Yun Ruoleng''s soulless look, he couldn''t help but frown. "Miss, please rest up for a bit.


    Yun Ruoleng acted as if he had lost his soul, as he was simply unable to listen to Zhu Lan''s words. Zhu Lan worriedly walked to her and squatted down, then consoled her in a small voice: "This servant doesn''t know what happened, but this subordinate knows that even if it''s a huge matter, we have to get over it, we can''t torture ourselves, right?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression changed slightly as he continued to speak, "If we don''t know how to cherish ourselves, who would?"


    "Right." Yun Ruoleng''s expression was slightly moved, and she muttered, "I should take good care of myself, so that he won''t worry ¡­"


    "Then this servant will prepare food for the young lady!" Seeing that Yun Ruoleng''s mood had improved, Zhu Lan immediately got up to prepare food for him.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his arm to wipe away the tears on his face, took a deep breath and sat down on a table. Even if he did not have any appetite, he would still need to eat properly.


    After Yun Ruoleng heard this, he picked up the chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.


    Zhu Lan watched Yun Ruoleng, who was wolfing down food, and couldn''t help but frown. He poured a cup of tea for her and couldn''t help but say: "Miss eat slowly, don''t choke on it anymore."


    And like this, two days had passed. Yun Ruoleng''s mood had always been in a depressed state, and in these two days, he did not even step out of the door. Zhu Lan had advised her twice, and seeing that she was completely ignoring him, he could only go see the Phoenix Map.


    After dealing with the military affairs, he came back to see her a few times, but he did not dare to get too close, afraid that she would be too emotional and fight him with her life.


    The third day passed, and Phoenix Diagram once again received news from Zhu Lan, saying that he started vomiting the moment Yun Ruoleng woke up. The doctor was invited to look, but he did not discover anything unusual, causing Phoenix Diagram to panic in his heart.


    Huang Tu frowned, he then approached the door carefully and looked at the maids inside who had turned into a mess a while ago, his face ashen: "What are all of you doing!"


    "We pay our respects to the Emperor ¡­"


    Phoenix Diagram roared out in rage, and the maidservants trembled in fear, obediently kneeling on the ground, waiting for Phoenix Diagram to speak. However, Phoenix Diagram only coldly swept a glance over them before waving his hand. "Zhu Lan will stay behind, everyone else can leave!"


    "Yes sir!" The maidservants did not dare to look at Phoenix Diagram''s expression, they buried their heads and retreated. Yun Ruoleng looked at Phoenix Diagram and became excited.


    "Phoenix Diagram, what you say is not true!" Yun Ruoleng forced himself to stay awake, his face pale white, his fingers trembling as he pointed at the Phoenix Diagram. "He said he''ll let me see him, it''s been a few days ¡­"


    "He is a prince of the Heavenly Awakening Realm, not someone that can be seen just by looking!" Towards Yun Ruoleng''s willfulness, he did not feel angry, but rather, he felt pain in his heart. Sometimes, he would think, if he met with something, would she be so anxious to see him?


    Maybe Yun Ruoleng didn''t have any other feelings than to hate him!


    Hearing that, Yun Ruoleng slowly lowered his hand that was pointing at Huang Tu, his body went soft and fell to the ground.


    swiftly caught Yun Ruoleng''s slightly sunken body. Feng Tu was shocked, and went up to the bed with Zhu Lan to support Yun Ruoleng, blaming him as they walked: "You clearly know you''re not in good health, but you''re still running around!"


    "Phoenix Diagram, your intention is for me to die. Is it fun to pretend to me? " Yun Ruoleng let out a cold laugh, waved away the hand the Phoenix Diagram was holding him with, and said, "You don''t need to pretend to be sincere, because I don''t care about it!"


    "You are her medicine, if anything happens to you, it will be very difficult for her to come back to life." Feng Tu felt the remaining warmth in his hand gradually disappear and his heart become empty. The lost emotion in his eyes flashed and gradually turned cold: "If it wasn''t for her, I wouldn''t have captured you and you wouldn''t have lived this long!"


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s breathing wasn''t easy, he only felt his heart tighten, and almost fainted from anger when he couldn''t catch his breath.


    Huang Tu knew that he was being too harsh with his words and sighed: "Be safe, I will arrange for you to meet as soon as possible."


    "Unease and kindness!" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, if Huang Tu were to arrange for them to meet, it was very likely that he would ambush Jun Qingshang, and that way, it was very possible that he would harm.


    Yun Ruoleng did not dare imagine such a thing happening.


    In the Heaven''s Enlightenment Army''s camp, Jun Qingshang sat at the table with his brows knitted tightly, staring at Yang Xiong with a heavy expression. Yang Xiong was completely uncomfortable from his gaze, but he did not dare speak up, and looked at Jun Qingshang guiltily.


    "Marshal Tian Qi, the commander of the three armies, yet he ordered people to steal this king''s Imperial Jade Seal, passing down this king''s orders! What crime should you take it for?! " Jun Qingshang said carelessly.


    Hearing that, Yang Xiong panicked, but he dared not admit it, so he could only cupped his hands and shouted: "This official does not dare! "With her golden body, even tens of thousands of cities cannot compare with her. How could this subject dare to falsify the word of the prince and not exchange it for her?"

 C307

    "You are an elder of two dynasties, but I didn''t expect you to rely on your seniority now." Jun Qingshang''s face became even more unsightly, his gaze looked as though he was about to kill someone.


    Jun Qingshang coldly snorted. Since the situation had come to this, there was nothing he could do about it, as the supervisor of the three armies, Jun Qingshang unhesitatingly ordered Yang Xiong, "Seal the city, don''t let anyone leave!"


    Why not let anyone leave the city at this time? Yang Xiong was puzzled.


    Jun Qingshang lightly tapped the table with his finger, and coldly said: "The letter has already been handed over, so it''s naturally unrecoverable. However, the scouts arranged by the Phoenix Diagram can be removed!"


    Yang Xiong was stunned. Did Phoenix Diagram arrange for spies to enter the army camp? Why didn''t he feel it? But since Jun Qingshang said so, Yang Xiong did not dare to let his guard down, and nodded his head, quickly retreating.


    The moment Yang Xiong left, Jun Qingshang called An Ying over. Without waiting for Jun Qingshang to speak, An Ying swiftly reported: "This subordinate has already finished arranging everything in the Imperial City, and is waiting for Your Highness to go."


    Jun Qingshang saw that An Ying did not speak, nor did he make any other movements, so he just quietly watched, which made An Ying''s hair stand on end.


    The two of them discussed for the time it took half an incense stick to burn in the study room. No one knew what the two of them discussed, only to see Yu Yang walk out of the study room with a solemn expression.


    On the morning of the second day, Phoenix Diagram came to Yun Ruoleng''s courtyard and asked her to meet a person with him. This person was none other than the Jun Qingshang that Yun Ruoleng desired wholeheartedly.


    Yun Ruoleng naturally would not refuse. After putting on her clothes, she allowed Zhu Lan to comb through her makeup before leaving the residence together with her.


    Come to think of it, it was a strange thing to say, she couldn''t leave this mansion alone, but following Huang Tu would allow her to leave successfully. From the time she had arrived until now, she had already tried countless of methods, but none of them could escape.


    Yun Ruoleng subconsciously looked at the Phoenix Diagram, it seemed that this person was not as simple as he seemed!


    After Yun Ruoleng left the palace, her mood improved quite a bit. She sat in the carriage that was prepared, and the corners of her mouth revealed a light smile. She was looking forward to seeing Jun Qingshang.


    Huang Tu who was sitting at the side looked at the smile that hadn''t appeared on her face for a long time. But it''s fine, everything will be solved in a while.


    When the carriage stopped in front of a beautiful lake, Yun Ruoleng lifted the corner of the curtain and was able to clearly see a pavilion at the center of the lake. Inside stood a person with his hands behind his back, and the moment he saw the figure of the person, Yun Ruoleng immediately knew who it was.


    "Lord Qing ¡­" Yun Ruoleng stumbled into the pavilion, and looked at his back, tears in his eyes flowing uncontrollably.


    With his back facing her, Jun Qingshang slowly turned around and coldly looked at Yun Ruoleng: "You shouldn''t have come here!"


    "You?" Yun Ruoleng''s entire body shivered. The feeling Jun Qingshang gave her was extremely cold, just like the first time she met him. Other than estrangement, there was no other expression in her eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang in disbelief: "What''s wrong with you? Why did this happen? Have you forgotten our promise? "


    "What''s a promise? This king has no choice but to part with you between the country and you. Since you''re doing well in the Yue Ling, why look for this king? " Jun Qingshang''s words were like a sharp sword, stabbing Yun Ruoleng''s last hope until it shattered into pieces.


    No one noticed the smile on Phoenix Diagram''s face, who was standing in the distance. Moreover, no one noticed the complacency that flashed past his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng held onto his heart, and his tears unconsciously flowed down, but Jun Qingshang did not hold back in the slightest, as she resolutely left her side: "From today onwards, you and I will not owe each other anything."


    Zhu Lan supported Yun Ruoleng who had no strength left to support her, and looked at her pale little face with tender eyes: "Miss, please don''t be sad anymore. It''s fine if you don''t want such a heartless man."


    "Hehehe ¡­" Yun Ruoleng sneered again and again, his blood-red eyes staring coldly at Zhu Lan, "What do you know!"


    Zhu Lan''s body froze and she did not speak anymore. Because she sensed a killing intent from Yun Ruoleng. If she dared to say even half a word, she would not be able to live.


    Huang Tu walked down from the carriage, and slowly walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and squatted down. He took out a white handkerchief from his sleeves and helped her wipe the tears at the corner of her eyes: "We have seen him too, let''s go back!"


    "Did you design it?" Yun Ruoleng extended his hand, tightly grabbed onto the collar of the Phoenix Diagram and pulled in his direction, "You intentionally allowed him to say that, right?"


    Looking at the agitated Yun Ruoleng, he sighed: "It doesn''t matter if you believe me or not, in short, whatever he says or does, it has nothing to do with us." He paused, "I can''t order him either."


    Yes, who can command the Lord Regent of the Apocalypse?


    The hand Yun Ruoleng was using to grab onto the Feng Tu''s collar slowly relaxed, his entire being froze on the spot, like a porcelain doll that had lost its soul.


    Huang Tu reached out and lifted Yun Ruoleng up, ordering: "It''s not good to stay here any longer, hurry and return to the city!"


    "Yes sir!" Everyone quickly left the lake.


    Yun Ruoleng was brought back muddle-headed once again. Because after this matter, her mood had always been low, and in order to allow her to cultivate properly, she had no choice but to think of all sorts of ways to make her happy.


    After all, with a mental knot, one''s training speed would be much slower.


    However, none of the methods of the Phoenix Diagram worked. This made him at a loss of what to do. At this time, the meticulous Zhu Lan proposed to Phoenix Diagram: "Why don''t you teach her how to send messages using your Shaman Energy? In this situation, the person she needs is not you, but the one from Heaven. "


    Feng Tu narrowed his phoenix eyes and looked at Zhu Lan with a dangerous gaze: "Are you trying to make our plan go down the drain?"


    "An inescapable net has been set up outside the city wall, and all kinds of power other than your power source can''t be passed through at all. Therefore, even if she knows this move, she still can''t really send a message out."


    The angered Huang Tu''s mood improved a little as he waved his hand: "We will give it a try."


    Because Yun Ruoleng was too sad, her face was pale white, her clear phoenix eyes were red, and she looked dispirited. The moment Huang Dian entered her room, he saw Yun Ruoleng staring blankly at him from the bed.


    "You''re still not in a good mood?" The Phoenix Diagram passed through a hundred flowers but not a single leaf touched Yun Ruoleng''s body. Even he didn''t know why this was happening, but if it was because she could save that person, he would rather say that he wanted to keep her!


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t even look at him, and Huang Tu wasn''t angry either. He casually found a chair and sat down: "What do you think is so good about this? He doesn''t know how you''re feeling right now. If you''re not happy, you have to make yourself stronger, and then you have to get even with him. "

 C308

    "You want me to become stronger and help the evil!" Yun Ruoleng sneered, his ice cold gaze locking onto the body of the Phoenix Diagram. "If you have something to say, quickly say it.


    Phoenix Diagram was startled, Yun Ruoleng was venting his anger on him! It should be fine once he''s done with his anger.


    The corner of his mouth raised slightly, and with a flip of his palm in front of Yun Ruoleng, a burst of powerful black Shaman Energy appeared in his hand. He clenched his hand, and another paper crane made of spirit energy appeared in his hand.


    The paper crane flapped its wings, and when the phoenix released it, it flew around the room.


    Yun Ruoleng thoughtfully looked at the paper crane, a bit of hope freeing on his face. "How did you do that?"


    "With just a single thought, I have succeeded." After Phoenix Diagram told her in a soft voice how to use it, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t wait to start channeling the Shaman Energy around his body.


    Time passed minute after minute, Yun Ruoleng had failed multiple times, but she did not give up. She was so tired that she did not have any intention of stopping, with her face straight and her expression serious.


    His hard work paid off, and Yun Ruoleng practiced from the very beginning until the evening. A lifelike golden butterfly flapped its wings in her hands. It did have a shape, but it was still unable to fly.


    The explanation Phoenix Diagram gave her was that she did not have enough Shaman Energy, so she could take form but could not fly. With something that could divert Yun Ruoleng''s attention, he naturally would not think about Jun Qingshang anymore. The Phoenix Diagram also heaved a sigh of relief.


    After peacefully living for two days, the Phoenix Diagram had received some bad news and hurriedly left the prince''s mansion without even being able to explain itself.


    Without the Phoenix Diagram, Yun Ruoleng''s life in the palace became even smoother. Because it had been training for two days, the butterfly, which could not fly, could already fly for around one meter. Just like the phoenix diagram had said, because it did not have enough power to support its flight, it could not fly.


    Yun Ruoleng trained diligently, to be able to achieve his current level of achievement wasn''t a waste of time.


    Meanwhile, the Phoenix Diagram rode its horse and left from the palace, heading straight for Huangshan Er who was at the back of the Imperial City.


    "Mistress, we have to hurry. Otherwise, we won''t be able to protect the princess'' body!" Ah Zheng looked at Huang Tu''s ashen face and his horse lashing frantically. He was panicking in his heart.


    Jun Qingshang was despicable to actually attack a dead man, it was fortunate that he could think of such a thing. But it had to be said that he had grabbed onto his lifeline. If anything happened to Nian''er this time, he would definitely not let Jun Qingshang off lightly.


    Because of the long journey and the constant beating of the Phoenix Diagram, he was already exhausted. With a "peng" sound, he fell onto the ground and the Phoenix Diagram was flung away by the horse, falling into a nearby patch of grass.


    Phoenix Diagram felt pain as he stood up from the grass. With a gloomy face, he looked at the horse that was lying on the ground without breathing. He could not help but curse, "Damn it!"


    Ah Zheng dismounted from his horse. Seeing the Thousand-Li Horse die from exhaustion just like that, he could not believe it. After looking at Ah Zheng, Huang Dian ordered, "Clean this up, I will go first!"


    Could Zheng refuse? Obviously, the Phoenix Diagram did not give him the chance to reject it. He immediately jumped onto his horse and left. A Zheng looked at the horse lying on the ground and sighed in his heart. His master would only lose his composure when he met the princess.


    They hurried along the way, exhausting themselves with three fine horses before arriving at the foot of the mountain. The surrounding guards were all killed, leaving behind a few veterans.


    Huang Tu''s expression became unspeakably ugly. He grabbed a soldier and shouted: "Where are that group of people?"


    "On... "On top of the mountain ¡­"


    Huang Tu shook off the soldiers and walked up the mountain with large strides. Everywhere he went, he saw the soldiers lying on the ground, their faces were already dripping black. "Jun Qingshang! If you dare to touch a single hair on her head, I will definitely take your life! "


    "You want This King''s life, yet you want to take it?" Jun Qingshang, who was dressed in profound clothes, stood at the cave entrance. Holding the Bloodthirsty Sword in his hand, he looked at the red-clothed man who was not far away with a faint smile.


    Feng Tu climbed the mountain furiously as he looked at the mountain peak which was already filled with Jun Qingshang''s men. He felt a surge of fury in his heart, and he was unable to vent it out: "What exactly do you want?"


    "Nothing!" The sword in Jun Qingshang''s hand instantly attacked the Phoenix Diagram, but it was already too late for Phoenix Diagram to dodge, so he used the sword in his hand to block Jun Qingshang''s attack. He only felt the blade on the sword sheath go numb, and the sword in his hand was directly deflected by Jun Qingshang.


    Catching the Phoenix Diagram was not an easy thing, if it was not for the fact that he was distracted just now, it would not be so easy for him. Jun Qingshang smiled and nodded to An Ying who was behind him.


    An Ying understood, and let two An Ying Guards tie up the Phoenix Map, then Jun Qingshang swaggered out of Phoenix Mountain with his people. The people of the Royal Mountain only dared to watch them leave in alert, not daring to go up and snatch them away.


    Jun Qingshang brought An Yue and the two of them went ahead first, while the rest of the people walked behind with Phoenix Map in their hands, neither too fast nor too slow, these people gave Jun Qingshang enough time to save Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng continued to practice his skill of transforming into a butterfly inside the palace. After finally discovering that the butterfly could fly for thirty to forty meters, he realized that the butterfly that was formed from his own energy could not fly inside the mansion.


    "Liar!" Yun Ruoleng''s brows slightly knitted, and her face became even more livid. It could be imagined what her current value of anger was.


    Zhu Lan followed closely behind Yun Ruoleng without saying a word, but having seen all of the changes in her emotions, seeing the change in her expression, she subconsciously retreated. In order to prevent Yun Ruoleng from noticing her, she lowered her head and did not dare to say a word.


    Yun Ruoleng, who had reacted to the situation, suddenly turned his head, and his cold gaze swept over the body of Zhu Lan, who was shrinking the feeling of his own existence, "Do you know something?"


    "No ¡­" "It''s not ¡­" Zhu Lan frantically waved his fingers: "This servant doesn''t know anything. When the Lord comes back, the Lady will ask him and he will know. "


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, a cold smile appearing on her face: "Eyes flashing, I can tell with a glance that you know about this matter, intentionally hiding it from me."


    "Miss ¡­" Zhu Lan felt his heart tighten, and the expression on his face became extremely strange.


    Yun Ruoleng took a good look at her expression, and with short steps, he slowly approached her. His expression became even colder: "Set up a formation here, to prevent me from escaping?"


    Zhu Lan lowered her head and did not speak, but her body was trembling uncontrollably and she did not escape Yun Ruoleng''s gaze. Yun Ruoleng seemed to know something as he sneered: "I knew that Phoenix Diagram wouldn''t be so kind-hearted as to teach me how to send messages.


    Zhu Lan raised his head and looked at Yun Ruoleng awkwardly: "Miss, you shouldn''t ask."

 C309

    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head, she did not speak anymore, she was already clear, so what if she asked? So what if he didn''t ask?


    She knew how valuable she was to the Phoenix Diagram, and that he wouldn''t do anything to her now. That was because she didn''t have the ability to revive his sister, and that he still lacked something in his hands. Yun Ruoleng was very self-aware, so he did not make things difficult for Zhu Lan. He waved his hand and went back to his room to lie down.


    After an unknown amount of time had passed and Yun Ruoleng was about to fall asleep, the door to his room was gently opened by someone.


    The man''s movements were quick, in a moment he was beside her, a familiar smell entered Yun Ruoleng''s nose, Yun Ruoleng opened his eyes, seeing the man who was thinking of her day and night looking at him with a pained expression, his heart tensed up: "You ¡­"


    "Don''t say these things, I''ll take you out of here first." With that, Jun Qingshang bent down and was about to hug Yun Ruoleng, but he did not expect to be swung by Yun Ruoleng.


    "Ruo Er..."


    "You can go!" Yun Ruoleng turned her face away, not even bothering to look at him.


    Jun Qingshang thought about the letter and opened his mouth to explain, but then heard Yun Ruoleng say coldly: "I''m safe for the time being, you don''t have to worry about me."


    "But ¡­"


    "I said it! "You go!" Yun Ruoleng was especially agitated. The moment she looked at Jun Qingshang, she remembered his resolute appearance that day, and she basically did not want to hear his explanation, nor did she have the chance to give him an explanation.


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly, his handsome face flashed with a tinge of injury. Seeing Yun Ruoleng turn his head around and be so stubborn, he knew that the letter might have really hurt her.


    He knew that Yun Ruoleng had already made her decision, and couldn''t explain it clearly in such a short time, so even though he couldn''t relax, he had no choice but to leave as well. Footsteps could faintly be heard at the door, and one could tell that someone was coming.


    Jun Qingshang clenched his fingers tightly, and looked deeply at the person lying on the bed. Only then did he turn around and leave, leaving behind two words: "Wait for me!"


    Wait for me, after I swallow my Yue Ling, I can bring you away.


    Wait for me, after I''m done with everything, then I''ll come back and pick you up.


    After he left, Yun Ruoleng, who did not know that he had turned his head to look at him, was already crying profusely.


    The door to the room was slammed open, Zhu Lan rushed in anxiously, looking at the graceful figure behind the curtains, she cupped her hands: "I just heard a sound coming from the lady''s room, did something happen?"


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng said with a light nasal voice, his voice was choked with emotions, "It''s me who is in a bad mood, all of you can leave!"


    Her back trembled a little and she looked as if she was crying. It could be seen that her mood was really bad, coupled with the matter of her not flying out of the residence as a butterfly due to Wu Li just now, she was definitely sad.


    Zhu Lan did not think too much into it, sighed and left.


    Yun Ruoleng slowly sat up on the bed, both hands hugging his knees, his eyes filled with mist. She didn''t understand why Jun Qingshang would take the risk to bring her away after leaving with no feeling in his heart. Was this a stopgap measure?


    Yun Ruoleng was a smart person. After he calmed down, he started to think about the causes and effects of this matter again.


    After Jun Qingshang escaped from the manor, he did not leave the city. Instead, he found a place to stay.


    "Mistress, your safety is related to the prosperity of the entire Heaven''s Initiation. If something were to happen to you, your subordinate cannot afford it." An Yue felt a headache coming on. It would be weird if he did not have a headache meeting such a stubborn master.


    Jun Qingshang ignored him and An Yue became anxious: "Master, you really can''t stay here. Just now, An Ying''s letter from the guard said that the Phoenix Map had already run away.


    "Do you think This King is afraid of him?" Jun Qingshang''s expression was extremely ugly, and the moment he mentioned the Phoenix Diagram, he became even more agitated, "He caused this king and Ruo Er to become enemies, so this king will find him sooner or later to settle this debt!"


    An Yue''s emotions were also very complicated. Even though he had not entered the room earlier, she could clearly hear the voices inside. Since the wangfei wasn''t willing to leave with them, it was natural for the prince to be angry.


    Jun Qingshang had already found a place to stay, and arranged for An Yue to take care of An Ying and the rest, then open up a bed.


    The first thing he did when he returned to the city was to look for Yun Ruoleng, but he didn''t want to be stopped outside the door by Zhu Lan.


    "Where is he?" Huang Tu''s face turned ugly, a trace of hostility flashing across his exquisite face.


    "Master, please calm your anger. Miss is resting in her room and has not left the yard for the past few days." Seeing that he was angry, Zhu Lan explained in a low voice, "When the young lady realized that she was completely unable to release her Shaman Energy, she was very angry and even cried!"


    It was as if someone was holding onto the Phoenix Diagram''s heart. The anger on its face instantly disappeared.


    It was good that she didn''t leave. If she did, it would be troublesome. Huang Tu comforted himself and waved his hand at Zhu Lan: "Serve him first, we''ll come see him later."


    Yun Ruoleng sat inside the house. Although she did not go out, she knew what was happening outside. Her consciousness could cover the entire courtyard, as long as it was not deliberately avoided by an expert, ordinary people would not be able to escape.


    After Phoenix Diagram said his piece and left, Yun Ruoleng pulled open the door. His face was pale white, yet, he did not open his mouth nor say a single word.


    Zhu Lan heard a sound coming from behind him, and turned to look, only to see Yun Ruoleng quietly standing at the door, frowning slightly: "Miss has finally gone out, do you want to go out for a walk?"


    "What''s so good about it?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, "You can walk the entire mansion with your eyes closed, it''s the same if you keep strolling around."


    "This ¡­" Zhu Lan was not stupid, he naturally understood the meaning behind Yun Ruoleng''s words. However, this matter was not something that a servant like her could decide, and she could only lift the corner of her lips foolishly, not replying him.


    At night, Feng Tu really came, but this time Yun Ruoleng didn''t even let him through the door.


    As the ruler of a country, he would have long been strangled to death if he had been shut out by a woman.


    But this person turned out to be Yun Ruoleng.


    "I''m going out tomorrow!" Yun Ruoleng''s ability to cause trouble was not that simple, the Phoenix Diagram naturally did not agree, and Yun Ruoleng did not say more than three sentences before making his move. Huang Tu dodged a few rounds and completely suppressed her attacks.


    "You ¡­" Phoenix Diagram did not expect that while he was suppressing her attack, he did not notice the change in her movements. His right leg, which had originally been sweeping past him, made a feint as it directly landed on the other party''s position. It was so painful that his forehead was covered in sweat and his expression was extremely unsightly.

 C310

    Yun Ruoleng leaned on the doorframe, with a mocking smile on his face. The expression on Huang Tu''s face was extremely ugly, Yun Ruoleng did not even put her expression in his eyes, and only sneered: "I don''t believe that I can''t beat you."


    "What''s the benefit of beating me!" Yun Ruoleng was not courteous at all with this kick, it was a good thing that he was able to repair the wound in time, if not it would be destroyed.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted: "Nothing good, I just can''t bear to see you act so arrogantly. Also, what are you locking me up for? Afraid I''d run? Or are you afraid of someone coming to save me? "


    "It''s all possible!" The pain in his chest was no longer as painful as before. He found a seat and sat down. This girl was blocking the entrance, she wouldn''t let him in tonight.


    In order to not anger Yun Ruoleng, Phoenix Diagram did not force his way in. After sitting down, he slowly explained: "Didn''t you escape once? In order to make me feel at ease, you set up this formation."


    "I know I can''t get out, but my power can''t even spread out, so why did you teach me to send a message?" Yun Ruoleng''s face was still very unsightly, but she had calmed down quite a bit when she said that.


    Phoenix Diagram looked at Yun Ruoleng quietly for a while before speaking: "At that time, your emotions were unstable, that''s why I thought of using this method to divert your attention ¡­."


    "It can calm me down and cultivate so that I can meet your requirements, right?" Yun Ruoleng interrupted Huang Tu as he looked at him with a taunting smile.


    Huang Tu nodded and did not continue speaking. After Yun Ruoleng got the answer he wanted, he returned to his room and locked the door. Feng Tu reached out his hand to stop her, but he realized that his voice was stuck in his throat and he couldn''t say a word.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned on the door and squat down on the floor. It was true that the phoenix image was very good to him, but his purpose was too clear. If he could not cultivate the power he needed, he would die.


    Only someone who had died once would understand how good it was to be alive.


    In the tavern, Jun Qingshang sat in the best room, holding a teacup in one hand and a book in the other, quietly waiting for something. The constant sounds of footsteps in the inn did not affect his reading.


    "Dong Dong Dong ¡­" At this moment, a series of rhythmic knocks sounded on the door.


    Jun Qingshang put down the book in his hands: "Come in!"


    The door was pushed open, and a man and a woman walked in. The man was An Yue, as everyone was familiar with him, he was clad in white, and wore an exquisite hibiscus veil. His watery almond eyes were rolling, and he scanned the furnishings in the room.


    "Gui Ji, This King knows your ability very well." Jun Qingshang paused for a moment, pointed to the spot beside him and nodded, "You also understand what this king wants."


    "Your highness asked for a help, but ¡­" Gui Ji''s elegant brows slightly frowned, "I have three ways of changing my face. One is to change my appearance for a short period of time, the other is to change my face with the mask, and the other is to change my face without being able to recover for a long time. May I know which one you would like me to choose? "


    "Shifter." Jun Qingshang unhesitatingly chose this, as this was the only way he could completely deceive the Phoenix Diagram.


    Gui Ji nodded, and with a serious expression, she replied, "There are only seven days left. If you are unable to come out in these seven days, I''m afraid that your secret will be exposed."


    "Mistress, there''s someone else with a different appearance beside the Phoenix Diagram. The last time I saved Princess Wangfei ¡­" An Yue shrunk his neck after receiving Jun Qingshang''s ice-cold gaze, as if he felt that he was about to be frozen by Jun Qingshang''s gaze in the next moment.


    "Don''t worry, I have a way to lure him away."


    "Thank you, Miss Ghost." Jun Qingshang nodded his head, a gloomy expression flashed across his face.


    Gui Ji chuckled, "You and I don''t need to be courteous. It''s about time. Let''s begin!"


    The method of changing her appearance wasn''t that complicated, but the amount of energy consumed was not something an ordinary person could handle. Every time she finished, she would feel weak for a while, so she always chose to do this in the dead of night.


    This night was destined to be a sleepless night.


    Yun Ruoleng tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep. His mind was filled with the urgent matter of Jun Qingshang coming to bring him away today.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng was sitting in front of the dressing table with a panda eye on his head. He stood behind her and helped her comb her hair.


    After yawning for two or three times, Yun Ruoleng said lazily like a cat: "I''ll take a nap later, don''t disturb me anymore."


    Zhu Lan nodded his head with a light smile. After combing Yun Ruoleng''s hair into a bun, he casually drank a bowl of congee before lying down on the bed to rest.


    As Zhu Lan tidied up the mess, she looked at Yun Ruoleng helplessly and shook her head repeatedly, feeling that she was exceptionally adorable at that moment.


    He didn''t sleep well at night, and he only woke up after resting for four hours. Today, he felt like he had been muddled for half a day, and was still very agitated when he brought Zhu Lan out to find a more peaceful place to sit.


    The pavilion in the middle of the lake was a good place. There were very few people who went there, so the view was wide. It was a good place to meditate.


    After Yun Ruoleng and Zhu Lan arrived, Yun Ruoleng closed his eyes and ignored Zhu Lan. Zhu Lan did not dare to disturb her at this time, and retreated a few steps, standing not too far away, quietly watching her every move.


    Time seemed to stand still as it followed the mountains and rivers, beautiful as a fairy who had fallen into the world. Suddenly, a drop of water fell on the stone table and a thick killing intent surged out from all directions. Yun Ruo quietly observed her surroundings. She did not move, and the bamboo orchid also felt that the atmosphere was a bit off as it vigilantly looked around.


    "Drip! Drip!" With another sound of dripping water, Zhu Lan''s gaze fell on the water droplets on the stone table as his head slowly looked up.


    "Who is it!" Zhu Lan bellowed, taking out his dagger from his waist and thrusting it at the black-clothed man. The black clothed man reacted quickly, in a flash he was already behind Yun Ruoleng, the sword in his hand pointed straight at Yun Ruoleng''s heart.


    It was too late for Zhu Lan to go up and save her. Just at that moment, Yun Ruoleng moved, and his body was blocked by a wave of Qi, which sent him flying.


    Yun Ruoleng chased after him in a flash. Seeing that, the black clothed man ran, Yun Ruoleng frowned his brows slightly and used his Qi to increase his speed. Zhu Lan wanted to chase after him, but was knocked out by someone from behind and fell on the pavilion.


    The more Yun Ruoleng chased, the uglier his expression became. The black clothed man was neither fast nor slow, if he couldn''t keep up with Yun Ruoleng, he would intentionally stay and wait for. If increased his speed, he would also accelerate, as if luring him somewhere intentionally.

 C311

    After the two of them had chased each other for half an hour, the black clothed man suddenly stopped. Yun Ruoleng stood still and looked at him with a complicated expression: "Where is he?"


    "The wangfei is indeed amazing!" The black clothed man took off his veil and looked at Yun Ruoleng with a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng coldly snorted. Actually, she had only found out when she saw his appearance earlier, and did not discover it long ago.


    "Prince used a disguise method to sneak into the mansion ¡­"


    "Why aren''t you persuading him? It''s so dangerous, what if something happens? " Without waiting for An Ying to finish speaking, Yun Ruoleng scolded angrily.


    An Ying was scolded until he could not raise his head, and only dared to mutter under his breath: "It''s all because of you."


    "What did you say?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, her phoenix eyes staring wide, as if she was going to hit him in the next second.


    An Ying laughed awkwardly: "Your subordinate did not say anything, you have heard wrongly."


    Yun Ruoleng coldly snorted, his brows tightly knitted. Someone is coming! "


    An Ying had originally wanted to explain to Yun Ruoleng about Jun Qingshang sending the rejection letter, but after hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, he felt that someone was nearing him. He did not dare to stay any longer, and quickly hid himself.


    The tip of Yun Ruoleng''s foot pointed towards the direction of the oncoming people who were stupid, just in time to see the red gowned dragon pattern phoenix flying towards her direction. Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly, turned his face away, and ran towards the other direction.


    "Sigh ¡­" Huang Tu extended his hand in an attempt to catch Yun Ruoleng, but he did not expect her to pass by him like a loach.


    The corner of Huang Tu''s mouth twitched a few times: "Where is he?"


    "It''s not like I can leave the mansion, why aren''t you letting him run away!" Yun Ruoleng sneered, and left the forest with a few ups and downs. Feng Tu coldly swept his gaze across the forest, and indeed, he did not see any trace of anyone, which was why he had turned around and chased after Yun Ruoleng.


    Once the Phoenix Diagram left, An Ying who was hiding in the shadows walked out. Looking at the direction they left in, he silently prayed for his master, hoping that it would be successful this time.


    As the army pressed down on their borders, Heavenly Awakening and Yue Ling were both in a state of meditation. Jun Qingshang''s letter of rejection made Han Mo somewhat unable to sit still. He ran to the mansion to look for the Phoenix Map.


    "Your Majesty, since they don''t care about that woman, why don''t we tie her to the tower ¡­"


    "Bam!" Before Han Mo could finish his words, he was kicked far away by Phoenix Diagram. Han Mo was shocked senseless by his kick and looked at the Phoenix Diagram with an expression of disbelief.


    Phoenix''s Diagram smiled faintly and looked at Han Mo who was lying on the ground. "You can think of bullying a woman? "Let me hear you say these words again, I''ll tie you up first!"


    "This subject doesn''t understand why you used her to exchange for a city. Since she''s useless, why ¡­"


    "She''s much more useful than you!" With a wave of his hand, Han Mo was sent flying.


    Only Yun Ruoleng knew how strong his Shaman Energy was. With this swing, he had directly sent Han Mo from his room to the courtyard, and even smashed the floor tiles within the courtyard. Han Mo lay on the floor, grimacing in pain. He coughed lightly, feeling as though his lungs were about to burst out of his mouth.


    Phoenix Diagram stood in the corridor, looking down at Han Mo from above. He waved his hand at the air, and two dark guards appeared behind Phoenix Diagram.


    "Take it back and rest well." With a cold snort, Phoenix Diagram flicked his sleeve and left. The two dark guards looked each other in the eye before quickly carrying Han Mo away.


    Yun Ruoleng sat in his own courtyard, holding onto the phoenix shaped jade pendant, his bright eyes stared at the jade pendant for a long time.


    When Huang Tu walked out from his own courtyard, his expression was extremely ugly. As he walked along the small path, he did not know where to go.


    Although he did not recognize the jade pendant, it looked extremely similar to the one hanging on Jun Qingshang''s waist. Only, this one was a phoenix and Jun Qingshang''s was a dragon.


    Yun Ruoleng recovered from his thoughts, and looked at Phoenix Diagram in alert: "Why are you here?"


    Feng Tu''s gaze left Yun Ruoleng''s hands and landed on Yun Ruoleng''s delicate face. After looking at it for a long time, he slowly spoke: "You don''t seem to welcome us?"


    "Should I welcome someone who has imprisoned me?" After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, he made an inviting gesture towards the Phoenix Diagram, "If there''s nothing else, then let''s go!"


    Feng Tu raised his eyebrows, and directly ignored Yun Ruoleng''s murderous gaze as he slowly sat opposite to her. The corner of his mouth slightly raised: "You don''t want to see me that much?"


    "Humph!" Yun Ruoleng turned his head and prepared to leave, but he was stopped by Huang Tu by his hand.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly: "Let go!"


    "Let''s sit down and talk!" Yun Ruoleng''s brows knitted even tighter as his expression became more unsightly to behold. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a familiar figure pass by the door.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression became even more unsightly: "If you have something to say, then say it, why are you making a move? "Hurry up and let go!"


    Huang Tu shrugged his shoulders helplessly, knowing that if Yun Ruoleng got agitated, no one would be able to do anything to him. "Let me ask you, if Jun Qingshang comes to find you, will you go with him?"


    "Why did he save me?" Yun Ruoleng laughed desolately, "The relationship between him and I has been ruined bit by bit. Do you think we can still be like before?"


    Huang Tu did not speak, the expression on his face became more serious.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly, turned and left the courtyard, leaving behind the enigmatic Huang Tu who was sitting in the courtyard.


    Returning to his room, Yun Ruoleng closed the door with his hands clasped tightly in front of his chest, allowing his excited emotions to calm down. When Huang Tu asked him earlier, did he know something? He didn''t know if his words would make him suspicious or not.


    Yun Ruoleng''s calm heart began to grow restless again. She had no idea why Jun Qingshang was running over here! If it was for his sake, why hadn''t he come to see him for a day? Or perhaps ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head and took a deep breath in in disbelief. He definitely wasn''t here to find him.


    Huang Tu sat outside the door, not knowing the changes in Yun Ruoleng''s mind. Looking at the tightly shut door, he sighed helplessly and did not stay there any longer.


    Once again, the courtyard quieted down. It was so quiet that one could even hear the sound of a needle hitting the ground.


    When Zhu Lan returned, she was already gone. Feeling anxious, she knocked on Yun Ruoleng''s door, and just as she was about to raise her hand, the door was opened by the person in front of her. A beautiful little face appeared in front of her.


    "What for?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, even if he wanted to go, he could not! He could freely wander around the residence, but he couldn''t leave the manor.


    Zhu Lan lowered his head, he knew that he had said the wrong thing, and did not dare to say anymore.


    Yun Ruoleng only shot her a glance before he walked out. The moonlight was bright today, making her feel like she was playing a song. But... Yun Ruoleng turned around and looked at Zhu Lan, who was following closely behind him.

 C312

    "Yes ¡­" Zhu Lan didn''t understand why Yun Ruoleng wanted to play the zither, but since she had spoken, as a slave, she naturally did not dare to reject.


    Zhu Lan had just returned and was being chased away by Yun Ruoleng. Although Zhu Lan was unwilling, finding a zither was not something that anyone could do, there were definitely good zither palace people around, and right now, in a city that was close to the battlefield, there were only a few such elegant things, let alone a good zither.


    After Zhu Lan left, a group of patrolling guards passed by the door. Yun Ruoleng looked again at the soldier that was looking in, although no one could see his almond-shaped eyes, she was extremely familiar with them.


    The light in his eyes changed slightly. Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but chase after her, only to see a young guard turn his head to look at her. His gaze seemed to contain millions of stars, deep and bright.


    Yun Ruoleng stood where she was and did not move. A few words flashed past her mind, causing her entire body to stiffen and her little face to turn pale white.


    It''s him ¡­


    Zhu Lan left for the time it takes half an incense stick to burn and came back with a good guqin. Looking at Yun Ruoleng who was standing in front of the door, his gaze was blank.


    "You''re back?" Yun Ruoleng came back to reality and looked at the guqin in Zhu Lan''s arms. His gaze darkened, "Where did this guqin come from?"


    "When this servant went to look for the zither, the emperor just so happened to be wiping it. As soon as this servant said it, he sent the zither to you." As Zhu Lan said till here, the corner of his mouth couldn''t help but rise as he looked at Yun Ruoleng ambiguously.


    Yun Ruoleng felt uncomfortable all over, so he waved his hand: "Forget it, I don''t want to play anymore."


    "You don''t want to play anymore?" The expression on Zhu Lan''s face changed again and again, and finally became extremely weird as he looked at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head as if nothing had happened, she was not in the mood to play the guqin, adding that the guqin was from the Phoenix Map, she did not want to play it anymore.


    "Sigh ¡­" Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was about to leave, Zhu Lan wanted to stop her, but even if she had the time, she couldn''t easily stop Yun Ruoleng''s teleportation. Before her fingers even touched Yun Ruoleng''s clothes, she was already gone.


    Yun Ruoleng returned to his room and held onto a book, prepared to study it carefully when he heard someone shouting from outside the door, "Catch the assassin!" Yun Ruoleng''s expression stiffened slightly, and couldn''t help but think in his heart: Could it be that Jun Qingshang was discovered? However, for such an intelligent person like Jun Qingshang, coupled with his easy appearance and appearance, if it wasn''t someone who was extremely familiar with him, it would be impossible to tell who he was.


    After thinking about it, Yun Ruoleng did not have the mood to read anymore. Instead, he stared at the flickering torches outside the house.


    The Assassin in her yard? Yun Ruoleng slowly got up and walked out. When he opened the door, he immediately looked at Zhu Lan''s back, which was blocking the door. Hearing the door open behind him, Zhu Lan slowly lowered his arm: "Why did Miss come out?"


    "Isn''t this the same as catching an assassin?" Yun Ruoleng replied unhurriedly, "I didn''t even feel the assassin, but I was discovered by some small fry."


    "Just now, a figure ran into your courtyard. If we had disturbed you ¡­"


    "General, it''s better to search this place thoroughly!" "If someone were to frame me as an assassin, even if I were to jump into the Yellow River, I wouldn''t be able to wash my face clean." The more Yun Ruoleng acted neither fast nor slow, the more the guard did not dare to act rashly. Everyone knew that the person staying here was someone the emperor had his eyes on. They really couldn''t afford to offend someone who could recklessly fight with the emperor.


    The person leading the group was none other than Ah Zheng who was beside Huang Tu. As his name implied, when Yun Ruoleng saw that the person leading the group was him, his heart dropped, but if he was not allowed to search, it would appear as though he was hiding everything.


    Although A Zheng was upright and not too stingy, he was still a smart person. Since Yun Ruoleng had said so, he didn''t dare to be too presumptuous and ordered a small team to go inside the house to search, while the rest of them searched the courtyard.


    "Follow me in and take a look." Seeing Zhu Lan looking like he wanted to say something, but stopped in his tracks, as if he had thought of something, Yun Ruoleng asked her softly.


    Zhu Lan nodded and quickly followed him in. Not long after she went in, the group of people came out and shook their heads at Ah Zheng.


    Yun Ruoleng then chuckled: "General has been here for too long, I''m afraid he has already escaped."


    Ah Zheng was not an idiot, his gaze was fixated on Yun Ruoleng''s delicate little face and he did not speak for a long time, his gaze seemed to want to see through Yun Ruoleng''s inner world.


    Yun Ruoleng stood there quietly, not flustered in the slightest, his entire body feeling uncomfortable from the gaze.


    "General, there isn''t any in the east wing!"


    "General, we don''t have any in the backyard!"


    "General ¡­"


    "If not, then retreat!" A Zheng looked at Yun Ruoleng for a long time, but was unable to detect any change in his emotions. He angrily waved his hand. A''Zheng brought a large group of people as he majestically arrived, and a large group of people as he left. In the entire process, Yun Ruoleng appeared to be completely unperturbed, but there was still a layer of cold sweat on his palms.


    After everyone left, Yun Ruoleng walked into the room with an ashen face: "Did you see the person enter just now?"


    "This servant didn''t see anyone at that time." Zhu Lan frowned, he did not recall anyone, and shook his head: "I really did not see anything."


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly. It seemed like it was the idea of the Phoenix Diagram this time, as he wanted to borrow the assassin''s power to discover something.


    It''s just a pity ¡­


    Zhu Lan didn''t understand why she was so furious just now, and her expression changed the next second. Just as she was wondering, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed, and she said: "Go to the fake mountain in the back to see if there really is an assassin!"


    "Yes." Zhu Lan replied, but then went over immediately. Although A-Zheng had checked, there was no mistaking it a few more times. If an assassin really hurt the girl, it wouldn''t be enough even if she were to die several times.


    Seeing Zhu Lan walk far away, the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth slightly lifted, his gaze landing on a nearby roof beam. "It''s not a good thing for Lord Liang to be used to it, you might as well get down from the roof! "Otherwise, I would have shouted ''catch the thief''."


    Everything was quiet.


    Yun Ruoleng''s words did not cause a reaction, but Yun Ruoleng''s gaze did not change, and it even became deeper. Her jade-white fingers caressed the teacup, and the corner of her mouth slightly raised, continuously releasing cold air.


    "Come down!" Following Yun Ruoleng''s words was still a drop of water. The person on the house beam steadily landed on the ground in a flash, just in time to avoid Yun Ruoleng''s attack.


    "Princess Hua-Yang, please calm your anger!"


    Yun Ruoleng recognized this person, it was An Yue who had followed her for a year. When Yun Ruoleng saw that he had arrived, he heaved a sigh of relief, but frowned and asked: "Why are you here?"


    "Esteemed wangfei ¡­" An Yue lowered his head, took out a letter from his bosom, and handed it over, then leaped back onto the roof beam.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the spot on the room''s beam with a head full of black lines, not knowing if he should open the letter or throw it away. Just as he was hesitating, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door. He quickly stuffed the letter into his pocket.

 C313

    Just as he raised his head, he saw Zhu Lan''s pale face, his eyes were still flickering, and even his breathing was not going smoothly, as though he had fallen into a state of panic.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly: "What did you meet?"


    "The backyard is too dark, so it''s so dark I can''t see anything, so this servant didn''t dare to walk any deeper." Please punish me. " Zhu Lan knelt on the ground with a thump, fear written all over his face.


    Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Yun Ruoleng got up and helped her up, consoling her by patting her shoulder: "It''s okay, it''s all my fault. If I had known earlier that you were afraid of the dark, I wouldn''t have let you go."


    "No, it''s this servant''s own matter. It has nothing to do with the young lady." Zhu Lan was a pure hearted girl, she could not bear to see others blame themselves for her. Yun Ruoleng had used this point to make preparations for his future escape.


    Because Zhu Lan was frightened, the people who were sleeping on the small beds outside all went back to the servants'' rooms to rest. There were a lot of people there, so she was not afraid. Although Yun Ruoleng seemed to be thinking for her sake, he was actually scheming something else.


    After Zhu Lan returned to his room to rest, An Yue jumped down from the roof once more. "Princess, you can read the letter now."


    Yun Ruoleng rolled his eyes at An Yue. He didn''t leave because he was waiting for her to reply! It seemed like if he did not reply to this letter for a day, he would not reply. This manor was filled with spies from the Phoenix Diagram, so she did not dare to guarantee that he would not be discovered.


    In order to prevent An Yue from being in danger, Yun Ruoleng could only take out the letter and read it seriously.


    "How many people know about him being a guard in the manor?" Yun Ruoleng''s palm produced a ball of golden flames and immediately burned the paper in his hand.


    An Yue looked at the ball of flames in astonishment, "This ¡­"


    "I''m asking you a question!" Yun Ruoleng glared at An Yue impatiently. He knew that the only person she could use to transform into a physical object was this person in front of her, and even Zhu Lan, who had been staring at him the entire time, only knew that he could transform into a butterfly that wouldn''t fly for even an incense''s time.


    In fact, her ability was far more than this. Ever since she had entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, her mind seemed to have gained more memories. Some of them were cultivation techniques, while others were memories that she had never experienced before. This was something only she knew.


    An Yue knew that he had committed a grave offense and immediately lowered his head, "An Ying Wei knows about it, but Marshal Haotian and the others do not. The prince left a letter for the marshal, and when he returns, it will be time to attack the city. "


    "Only defend and not attack?" The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, it seemed like some people wanted to start fighting from the inside, and did not need a single soldier to take down the city, it was already impressive.


    "Go back first, don''t let anyone find out." Yun Ruoleng did not reply him, but only warned him.


    An Yue still wanted to say something, but was stopped by Yun Ruoleng''s gaze, and could only take his leave. Yun Ruoleng sat in front of the table, his fingers continuously tapping on the table, his expression somewhat solemn. Jun Qingshang said he wanted to come here, but why did he come here? Did he bring her with him to leave? How laughable, why wasn''t she willing to bring him away at that time?


    Yun Ruoleng''s mind was in a mess, he scratched his head in frustration, Forget it, he will tell others after he arrives.


    Although Yun Ruoleng said that he did not want to care about Jun Qingshang anymore, he was still looking forward to it in his heart. But since this was the territory of the Phoenix Diagram, he did not dare to do it so brazenly.


    Yun Ruoleng did not know how long he sat in the room before he heard faint footsteps at the door. His eyes immediately lit up, concealing the excitement in his heart.


    "Dong Dong ¡­" Suddenly, a series of knocks on the door sounded out. Yun Ruoleng felt goosebumps all over his body.


    Other people did not dare to be brazen, but Jun Qingshang dared. He was not afraid of anything, and yet he knocked on the door. Yun Ruoleng silently thought in his heart, while looking at that unfamiliar face, he could not help but burst out laughing: "Who are you? "Why are you looking for me in the middle of the night?"


    "If ¡­" Jun Qingshang seemed to have thought of something, as the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He laughed helplessly: "My name is Xuan You.


    Dark World? Quiet or worry? Yun Ruoleng did not understand as he slowly walked in front of her and slowly squatted down. After he scanned her body once more, his expression clearly changed: "She''s skinnier."


    "Does it have anything to do with you?" Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned, and coldly stared at him with a lot of gentleness in his heart.


    Jun Qingshang wanted to reach out and touch her face, but she dodged his hand. He couldn''t help but frown: "Are you angry?"


    "Shouldn''t I be angry?" Yun Ruoleng snorted and put on a cold face, "If you came to save me, then don''t try to be merciful, I''m living a good life now!"


    "Ruo Er, listen to my explanation. That letter..."


    "A stopgap measure, right?" Yun Ruoleng interrupted Jun Qingshang with a cold voice, her small face full of anger as she pointed to the door, "I don''t want to listen to any of this right now, get out!" Speaking of that letter made her angry to death!


    Jun Qingshang''s lips moved slightly. Seeing Yun Ruoleng so agitated, Jun Qingshang knew that nothing he said was of any use, and that making too much of a commotion would attract others, he could only sigh, get up, and walk to the door. He gave Yun Ruoleng a deep glance.


    Grab Grass... He really left just like that?


    Yun Ruoleng looked up, but Jun Qingshang was truly nowhere to be seen, and could not help but hammer the table in anger.


    This night was destined to be a sleepless night. After Jun Qingshang returned from Yun Ruoleng''s side, he saw a group of orderly guards standing in the center of the courtyard. Feng Tu sat in front of the guards, looking at him with a spurious smile.


    Discovered? Jun Qingshang frowned slightly.


    The first moment Huang Dian saw him, he immediately understood what was going on. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Before he could ask, the leader of the guards spoke up first, "It''s already so late, where did you run off to?"


    "My stomach hurts. I went to the latrine." Jun Qingshang scratched his head and laughed awkwardly. This action and manner were exactly the same as the owner of this mask. The captain didn''t notice anything unusual, only that the phoenix eyes in Phoenix Diagram''s eyes continued to stare at him with a faint smile, as if there was some sort of strange pattern on his face.


    "What are you standing there for? "Why aren''t you joining the party yet!" The guard leader glared at him unhappily and roared.


    Jun Qingshang nodded, and ran to the back of the group to stand, respectfully and respectfully display the obedience of a guard.


    Seeing this, the corners of Phoenix Diagram''s mouth curled up slightly as he quietly sat in his seat without moving or saying anything.


    The head guard stepped forward and cupped his hands, respectfully saying, "Your Majesty, everyone has arrived."


    Huang Tu nodded his head and pointed at the guards with his finger: "You should divide these people into three groups. From today onwards, you must be clear about the locations of every patrol."


    Yes!" Even though the guard leader was suspicious of the purpose of the Phoenix Map''s visit, he did not dare to doubt his words in the slightest. He quickly divided the team into three teams and chose the captain of the three teams.

 C314

    Huang Tu then stood up and said slowly: "From today onwards, increase the security of the people patrolling the area around the Warm Phoenix Pavilion to ensure Miss''s safety!"


    "Yes sir!" The reason Phoenix Fairy Beauty came personally to say this, was only to show that she was protecting Yun Ruoleng.


    The goal of the Phoenix Diagram was definitely not that simple, it was most likely telling him not to get too close to Yun Ruoleng! The moment he saw Phoenix Diagram, Jun Qingshang already understood that the Phoenix Diagram had probably figured out who he was, but it did not expose him in public.


    This was also what he was puzzled about. They could have clearly captured him, but why didn''t they do so?


    Jun Qingshang''s eyebrows drooped downwards as he fell into deep thought.


    "Little Four!" The commander is calling you! " The guard at the side pushed Jun Qingshang''s arm, waking him up, but he was startled when he saw his cold gaze.


    But when the guard looked over again, he saw that Jun Qingshang''s eyes were once again as calm as usual, and for a moment, he didn''t know if he was seeing things.


    Jun Qingshang lifted his head and met the guard leader''s unhappy eyes.


    "Little Four!"


    "Here!" Jun Qingshang frowned, and stood out.


    "You got together too late today. Go, run three laps around the mansion!" The head guard simply did not place Jun Qingshang in his eyes at all, and impatiently waved his hand, signalling him to quickly go.


    Jun Qingshang had not wanted to stay here for a long time. He was the Regent King of Heaven''s Enlightenment, when did he have to suffer such grievances?


    This mansion was not big nor was it small, but for a strong martial arts expert like Jun Qingshang, these three laps were not much. At most, two hours would be enough to take care of it.


    Yun Ruoleng did not rest at all. Because he was so frustrated, he stayed in the house feeling stuffy and panicked, he put on a cloak and went out with a lantern.


    In the dead of night in the Residence, what seemed to be an unspeakable secret, Yun Ruoleng slowly walked with the lantern in his hand, and when he passed by the lakeside, he stopped in his tracks. Under the weak moonlight, he looked at the water that was faintly emitting mist. The restlessness in his heart had also been washed clean.


    "It''s late at night, why are you out?" Yun Ruoleng did not even need to turn his head to know who he was. However, because he was not in a good mood, he did not turn his head around, nor did he speak to the other party.


    On the contrary, they walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and stood shoulder to shoulder with her by the side of the pool, looking at the calm surface of the pond, the corners of their mouths slightly raised.


    Under the moonlight, her face, which made the girl jealous by three points, had a hint of a smile on it, making her look hazy.


    Although the fretful and unsettled feeling in his heart had calmed down, he saw the displeasure in this person''s heart., who could have just turned around and walked over, suddenly grabbed onto Phoenix Diagram''s sleeves and pressed his feet against Phoenix Diagram''s knees.


    "Hahaha ¡­" Yun Ruoleng stood at the shore, laughing while looking at the Phoenix Diagram which was submerged in the lake.


    Just now, he was so shocked that he fell down to drink a mouthful of water. His face turned black as he wanted to swim over and pull Yun Ruoleng who was gloating on the shore down with him, but Yun Ruoleng was smarter than he had imagined. After pushing him down, Yun Ruoleng had already left the shore and stood under the willow tree not too far away, laughing so hard he couldn''t even straighten his back.


    "You naughty girl! "Let''s see how This Emperor will deal with you after catching you." Huang Tu crawled out from the water, while using his inner force to dry his clothes, he grabbed towards Yun Ruoleng.


    When his finger was about to reach Yun Ruoleng, Yun Ruoleng just disappeared from his sight.


    Phoenix Diagram looked in astonishment at the empty spot, this ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng actually did not run far. At this moment, she was hiding behind a large tree not too far away and was holding her breath. She did not want to play hide-and-seek with the Phoenix Map, but wanted to see if he would get angry by provoking him like this. However, she was disappointed, Huang Tu was not angry, he was initially startled for a few seconds, then he shook his head helplessly and walked towards the courtyard that he was staying in.


    Gone? This time, it was Yun Ruoleng who was stunned.


    She had thought of many different outcomes, but she had never thought that he would just leave like that.


    "Who?" Just as Yun Ruoleng was in a daze, a hand rested onto her shoulder. Yun Ruoleng turned around and punched his opponent, not wanting to be firmly wrapped up by her large hand.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the person who came over, his tensed body and nerves finally relaxed as he stared at him in displeasure: "Why are you always lingering around?"


    "Persistence of a ghost?" Jun Qingshang pulled Yun Ruoleng into her embrace with force, and wrapped his other hand around her waist that she was holding. Yun Ruoleng stuck his entire body onto his, and the atmosphere instantly became hot and dry.


    "You ¡­" Jun Qingshang''s breath was just inches away from her face. She blushed a little, but was even more enticing than rouge. Her rosy red lips parted, as if inviting a king into an urn.


    Jun Qingshang lowered his head, wanting to kiss Fang Ze''s face, but was blocked by Yun Ruoleng''s other hand, and the kiss firmly landed on the back of her hand. Jun Qingshang frowned slightly as he raised his head and looked at Yun Ruoleng with slight displeasure.


    "I can''t bear to look at your face!" The more Yun Ruoleng looked at this unfamiliar face, the more uncomfortable he felt.


    Jun Qingshang''s eyes lit up. "Then let''s go back and exchange my face for yours."


    "You wish!" Yun Ruoleng took the chance when he wasn''t paying attention to go out of his embrace and snorted lightly, "This wangfei won''t go anywhere before I forgive you for your actions!"


    "How can you forgive me?" Jun Qingshang panicked. He wanted to go up and pull Yun Ruoleng, but Yun Ruoleng dodged him.


    With an extremely serious expression, he said, "Someone is coming!"


    Jun Qingshang''s face became unspeakably ugly. Why is it that every time I do this, I can''t just let him have a good chat with me? Yun Ruoleng reached out and pulled him away from the place after a few instants.


    "Boss, I clearly heard someone speaking over here!"


    "Look around!" We can''t let any of the details go! "


    "Yes sir!"


    The location that the guards were searching happened to be where Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang were standing. Because of Yun Ruoleng''s teleportation, they had successfully escaped from the scene in a flash.


    After that, Yun Ruoleng threw Jun Qingshang outside the door of the Warm Phoenix Pavilion and swaggered into the room by himself.


    "You ¡­" Jun Qingshang was so angry that his teeth ached, but in the end, Yun Ruoleng did not have the intention to turn back and stay. Furthermore, this position was heavily guarded, he did not dare to stay any longer, and angrily turned and left.


    Being able to anger Jun Qingshang and Feng Tu, Yun Ruoleng felt that her actions had not been in vain. Feng Tu gritted his teeth in anger as he left, probably wanting to find trouble with her tomorrow morning.


    Those who were in a good mood slept soundly. Yun Ruoleng laid on the bed and fell asleep.


    The night was a good one.

 C315

    He just knew that Yun Ruoleng was sleeping, and had nowhere to vent his anger on, so he couldn''t vent it out on the girl from the Feng Wai Pavilion. If he woke up Yun Ruoleng who was sleeping, then there probably wouldn''t be any good results today.


    This time, the soldiers in the army camp were quite pitiful. Because they had been defeated a while ago, Huang Tu had ordered them to carry out devilish training in preparation for the next battle.


    Han Mo was severely injured by him and was still lying on the bed.


    It was just that Han Mo did not dare to stop Huang Tidemark from tormenting his soldiers, even though he was unhappy. After several consecutive mistakes, Han Mo had sent a few cities over to Tian Qi Jun in succession, and even more so did not have the guts to plead for mercy on behalf of his soldiers. A few forward field officers came to cry at him, but he only dared to close the door. It was easy to imagine how miserable the soldiers were being because of him.


    Inside the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng was leisurely sitting on the soft couch, eating some fruits. Ah Zheng walked in with a stern expression on his face, Zhu Lan followed behind him and shouted, "General, you cannot barge in recklessly!"


    "Miss Yun, please advise His Majesty! If this goes on, the soldiers will be killed by him. "


    "Just nice!" Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, "This is Yue Ling, not because of us! Killing a group would result in a smaller group than killing others, so wouldn''t we be able to use less manpower in the next battle?"


    "You ¡­"


    "General Zheng, don''t beg me for something like this. Let''s not talk about whether I can help you or not, even if I can, I won''t. The conflict between the two countries isn''t something that can be resolved in a day or two. It would only harm me to be merciful to others." I wouldn''t make such a low mistake. " Yun Ruoleng paused for a while, and then pointed to the door, "Please leave now!"


    A''Zheng was stopped by Yun Ruoleng to the point that he couldn''t say a word, and the expression on his face was extremely ugly. However, he really didn''t dare to act rashly, and could only clasp his hands and leave.


    Zhu Lan looked at Yun Ruoleng with a much deeper gaze, before leaving with A Zheng.


    Yun Ruoleng only indifferently glanced at the two people who had left, and did not make a move.


    The Phoenix Diagram spent a whole day in the army camp, tiring the soldiers half to death. Fortunately, the two nations did not start a war during this period, otherwise, Yue Ling would have definitely lost today.


    In the evening, when Huang Tu returned to the mansion, he saw Zhu Lan standing at the entrance of his study waiting for him. The eyes of the originally frowning Huang Tu lit up, and he expressionlessly walked to Zhu Lan''s side.


    Zhu Lan then turned to Phoenix Fairy Beauty and said, "Your Majesty, the young lady has invited you to the Phoenix Warm Pavilion."


    Although Phoenix Diagram''s expression did not change, he was already filled with anticipation, and directly brought Zhu Lan to the Phoenix Warm Pavilion.


    Along the way, Huang Dian had even deliberately asked Zhu Lan if his daily life was normal or something like that. Zhu Lan answered them all one by one, and also mentioned what Yun Ruoleng and Ah Zheng had said to each other along the way.


    The Phoenix Diagram seemed to have long known that it would be like this, its mouth raised in a self-deprecating smile: "Knows and makes a mistake, ignorant to the extreme!"


    Zhu Lan lowered her head and did not reply. Although the words sounded like a curse on Ah Zheng, why did she feel that it was different the more she heard?


    Yun Ruoleng stood in the middle of the guards with a straight face. When he saw the Phoenix Diagram, he quickly stepped forward: "Did this assassin come to my side three times a day? Yesterday evening, the search for assassins! This time again! Phoenix Sect, did you have the intention to not let me off? "


    "What''s going on?" Huang Tu was confused, even Zhu Lan was confused, there were no assassins when he left, and he had only walked for less than half an incense''s time, how did he cause such a commotion?


    "Your subordinate clearly saw a man in black running into the Phoenix Warm Pavilion just now. Your subordinate was only doing this for the lady''s safety ¡­"


    "Did you find anyone?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, "Yesterday, I was also talking about searching for assassins, but in the end, I couldn''t find anything. Today, I have as well.


    "Your Majesty, your subordinate definitely did not intentionally fabricate it. At that time, your subordinate ¡­"


    "Enough!" Huang Tu''s face was so dark that it looked like water was dripping from it. His gaze was gloomy as he looked at Yun Ruoleng and understood what was happening when he saw her glaring at him. She thought that he had arranged everything himself. His gaze could not help but darken a little as he said, "From today onwards, increase your patrols around the Hall of Healing. As long as Miss does not call for help, none of you are allowed to step into the Hall of Healing!"


    "Yes sir!" The guard leader felt his heart tighten. He didn''t dare to say more and quickly left with his men.


    Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly, and turned to return to his room. The Phoenix Diagram followed her into the room, and upon entering, he looked at the table full of drawings, and his originally heavy mood instantly vanished, to the point where even he himself did not know when he had become so emotional.


    "How is it?" Yun Ruoleng placed a map of the border battle on top of the picture. It depicted the scene when he was fighting Jun Qingshang, and it was also Jun Qingshang''s overwhelming move, so there were very few who could remember it in an instant.


    However, after seeing this drawing, Phoenix Diagram''s mood became especially bad and his expression immediately changed.


    Yun Ruoleng pulled the painting apart, revealing a picture of a battle between two people. This time, it was within the Regent¡¯s Mansion, Jun Qingshang was covered in white, and looked extremely celestial. However, he was dressed in red, looking very demonic ¡­


    The fourth was a strange place, and there was only Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang inside. There was no one else but Yun Ruoleng, and he looked very dirty, so this should be within Yun Che''s Minister¡¯s Mansion!


    There were a total of six paintings, and every one of them were extremely beautiful. Every single painting carried different emotions. After the Phoenix Diagram finished looking at the paintings, its expression would change again and again.


    "The Emperor has probably forgotten about all these matters!" Yun Ruoleng handed the painting over to Huang Tu, he sighed and laughed: "I''ll leave this for you to think about."


    "You''re leaving?" Huang Tu''s face did not look good, his voice was hoarse: "Do you think you can escape?"


    "Of course I can''t escape." Yun Ruoleng chuckled, "It''s precisely because I can''t escape that I didn''t think of fleeing."


    "Then why did you ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng raised a hand to stop him from speaking, and said coldly: "The reason I''m giving you these is to tell you that you have changed, or that I was blind and simply did not see your original appearance!"


    Feng Tu''s hand that was holding the painting trembled slightly, his brows knitted, and he wanted to explain to Yun Ruoleng. However, she ruthlessly cut him off: "Go!"


    Yun Ruoleng turned her back on him as if she didn''t want to pay attention to him at all. At this time, Phoenix Diagram knew that she was still angry because the guards had just barged in. Although he was nervous, he did not explain.


    Yun Ruoleng told him to go, and he really left.

 C316

    Although Zhu Lan stood at the door and did not follow him in, she could feel the change in the atmosphere in the room. The moment Huang Tu walked out with a sullen face while holding the painting, she did not even dare to breathe, as she was afraid of incurring the Master''s displeasure.


    When Huang Tu walked past Zhu Lan, he paused for a moment, and his gaze landed on her body gentler: "Take care of her."


    "Yes ¡­" Zhu Lan lowered his head. After obtaining the answer, the Phoenix Diagram finally left.


    Once the Phoenix Diagram was gone, Yun Ruoleng chased Zhu Lan out as well. In the entire Phoenix Warm Pavilion, only Yun Ruoleng was left, and he felt much more at ease. A black-clothed An Yue jumped down from the beam on the roof. The originally relaxed Yun Ruoleng''s face instantly turned green: "Didn''t you leave?"


    "Master has ordered me to protect you every inch of your way." An Yue held his sword as if he could not see Yun Ruoleng''s dripping face, and stood there with his head held high.


    Yun Ruoleng felt a headache coming on as he glared at Yue Yang ruthlessly. "Are you following me to protect me or to kill me?"


    "I ¡­" An Yue felt wronged, had she despised him?


    Yun Ruoleng snorted coldly. She could not be bothered with him and directly entered the room. She had just said why she was here to catch the assassin. So there really was an assassin! He just did not know that when the Phoenix Diagram came in, it actually did not discover this brat!


    Yun Ruoleng was still a little doubtful as to whether they had not discovered him or not.


    An Yue panicked and quickly followed, "Esteemed wangfei, you wouldn''t really want me to go back, right?"


    "Why don''t you go back and follow me?" Yun Ruoleng looked at him snappily, "Right now, I am very safe. Although there are people monitoring me, these people do not have any ill intentions towards me. You might still be in danger of losing your life! "Seriously, hurry up and go back to the military camp!"


    An Yue only felt that he was being ignored, and rubbed his nose disheartened. He was about to leave Yun Ruoleng''s room when he was called over by Yun Ruoleng, and he became excited in his heart: "Princess, you don''t want me to leave?"


    "Don''t even think about it." Yun Ruoleng said snappily, "Stopping you is because you want to say it before you go, it''s safer for me to send you out!"


    "¡­" It was rare for An Yue to reveal a smile, but after hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, the smile on his face became uglier than crying.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t even bother to look at him, leaned on the bed and continued to study his books. Seeing that, An Yue casually found a place to sit down. He knew that Yun Ruoleng never cared about etiquette, so sitting anywhere could see how he was feeling.


    Yun Ruoleng only shot a glance at An Yue, but did not say anything, and continued to look at his own things. An Yue sat in his seat and began to meditate.


    It was abnormally quiet here, and the scene at the entrance of the Warm Phoenix Pavilion became lively. Not long after Huang Tu left, he met Jun Qingshang who was pretending to be a servant.


    "You, come with me!" Looking at his complexion, it was obvious that he was not in a good mood. At this moment, even if Jun Qingshang was dealt with by one of the guards, he did not dare to do anything.


    A thought flashed through Huang Tu''s mind, but he quickly put it down. He waved his hand and said: "Whatever, you can leave for now!"


    Jun Qingshang only felt that Feng Tu was still in a daze as he replied and left, while Feng Tu looked at Jun Qingshang who had left with a meaningful glance before glancing at the tightly shut door.


    A Zheng, who was following behind him, asked curiously, "Master, is there any problem with that person?"


    "The problem is not small!" Feng Tu laughed lightly and turned to leave.


    Ah Zheng subconsciously glanced at the back of the departing Jun Qingshang. He felt that this person was somewhat familiar, but he was unable to recall who he was. Jun Qingshang walked around the corner, turned his head back and glanced at the leaving Phoenix Map, his eyebrows knitted slightly. According to his suspicions, why did he not grab if he was recognized?


    Jun Qingshang suddenly could not understand the Phoenix Diagram.


    At night, Yun Ruoleng stealthily sent An Yue out of the residence, and coincidentally met Jun Qingshang who was on patrol on the way back. The two of them first looked at each other, and then, Jun Qingshang slowly walked towards her.


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang looked around, and then continued, "It''s so late, I''ll send you back."


    Yun Ruoleng really wanted to reject, but in order to not arouse suspicion, he nodded his head. The two walked on, one in front and the other behind. Neither of them spoke up to pay attention to the other. They seemed to be strangers, but they also walked around in tacit understanding. Reaching the door of the Warm Phoenix Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng turned around and smiled at him, then teleported into the pavilion.


    What the two of them did not know was that such a small action had already caught the attention of Huang Tu, and there were many pairs of eyes watching them around them.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng woke up early in the morning and had Zhu Lan help him tidy himself up. She then asked to bring in someone to bring in the table, as she was prepared to draw a few pictures in the garden.


    "Have you chosen your destination?" When Zhu Lan heard that she wanted to go out for a walk, his heart became a lot more relaxed. On the other hand, she could always watch from the outside, but inside the courtyard it was different.


    Yun Ruoleng supported his chin, quietly looking at himself in the mirror, and after a long while he slowly spoke: "It''s just summer, how about we go to the pavilion that day to draw?"


    "The pavilion is so cool, but it lacks a mental state." Zhu Lan placed a bead on Yun Ruoleng''s head and chuckled, "This servant knows of a place that is filled with lotuses, and the scenery is also good."


    Compared to sitting inside the house and cultivating his Shaman Energy, adjusting one''s mental state was a very good way of cultivation. This was what Black Robe had told him at that time, that he had run off to who knows where ever since the battle.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly sighed, his heart tight thinking that he said the wrong thing, he immediately knelt down: "This servant should not speak nonsense."


    "You''re right!" Yun Ruoleng turned his head with difficulty and smiled at her, "Let the guards in."


    "Yes." Zhu Lan did not dare to stay for long. Although she was monitoring Yun Ruoleng, she did not dare to provoke this person who even dared to beat up the emperor.


    Zhu Lan''s work efficiency was never bad, after Yun Ruoleng finished cleaning up, he stood up and saw a large group of people rushing into the room, moving tables, chairs, drawing paper, in just two minutes, he had already left.


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head and followed her out helplessly. Compared to her, Zhu Lan was even more anxious and impatient.


    He followed the guard and walked into a yard at the back of the garden. As soon as he entered, he felt a breeze blowing by.

 C317

    Upon entering the courtyard, a large white lotus flower appeared before his eyes. In the center of the lotus pond was a pavilion, which was very tall and had four floors.


    "This is a good place." Yun Ruoleng nodded, he looked at the guards who were arranging the items, and then looked at Zhu Lan, "You are quite meticulous, help me take care of it."


    "The best would be if the lady could do as she pleased." Zhu Lan chuckled softly as he turned his head back and continued to instruct the guards to place the things inside. Yun Ruoleng stood at the edge of the lake and took a deep breath, feeling the summer heat around him.


    After Zhu Lan dismissed the guards, he quietly stood in front of the drawing table and grinded the ink. Time seemed to stop, other than the sound of the breeze blowing past the lotus leaves, there were no other sounds.


    Yun Ruoleng stood there for the time it takes an incense stick to burn before he moved his body. First, he stretched his body a little, then, he jumped over ten times. After doing all that, Yun Ruoleng returned to the front of the table and sat down. With both hands under his chin, he slowly said: "It''s cool here.


    "It is said that a few days ago, a lady came and arranged a residence in the residence. However, I don''t know where she resides, nor do I know who she is." Zhu Lan casually mentioned this when he heard Yun Ruoleng asking about other people''s news.


    The mere mention of it made Yun Ruoleng think of the unrestrained affairs of the Phoenix Diagram and he could not help but mock him, "Dogs can''t stop themselves from eating shit."


    "Eh ¡­" Although Zhu Lan did not know who was the target of Yun Ruoleng''s sudden words, but from her tone, he guessed that she was mocking him and not eating or drinking. Furthermore, the person was invited by the Emperor, Zhu Lan understood after thinking.


    Yun Ruoleng rolled up the sleeves of his robe. Just as he was about to draw, he felt a burst of killing intent, and his body instantly moved three steps to the right. A silver "Pa" sound came out, and cut the drawing table into two.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face instantly darkened, his eyes coldly staring at the mastermind.


    "Who are you?" From start to finish, Yun Ruoleng maintained the mindset of never offending others, but since she wanted to hit her own people, she would definitely not let them off easily.


    The woman wore a light blue long skirt, her long hair tied up behind with a long ribbon. She looked valiant and formidable, and her pair of flickering sinister eyes completely destroyed her image as a person. The lady''s appearance could not be considered outstanding, she could only be considered beautiful, and her eyes looked at Yun Ruoleng as if she wanted to swallow him whole.


    "And who are you?" She hated beautiful women the most in her life, especially this woman who was still breathtaking even without makeup. Thus, the moment she saw her, she wanted to kill her.


    Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, only coldly looked at the other party. Her heart had already come to a conclusion, that this woman was very likely to be one of the hidden talents in the Phoenix Diagram. However, this appearance and this temper of his ¡­


    She suddenly laughed, elegantly and gently. The ridicule in her eyes showed without restraint.


    "You''re courting death!" The woman thought that Yun Ruoleng was laughing at her, and the silver whip in her hand whipped like Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng reached out and grabbed the stunned Zhu Lan beside her, and with a teleportation, he escaped from her silver whip.


    Yun Ruoleng had to admit that his opponent''s whip technique had already reached perfection, but against his opponent, she was more than enough. Throwing Zhu Lan who was in his hands behind him, a sharp sword suddenly appeared in Yun Ruoleng''s hand.


    The long soldier against the short weapon, the woman laughed sarcastically. She only thought Yun Ruoleng was a fool who didn''t even know this little bit of common sense.


    The scenery in the garden was pleasing to the eye, but the people who came made people feel uncomfortable. Yun Ruoleng had finally thought of drawing a picture of the Warm Phoenix Pavilion, but he met an unreasonable woman, and even more importantly, the picture that he had prepared was shattered by her, it was even an insult to her effort.


    Yun Ruoleng did not think too much, provoking her would not end well, facing the lady''s silver whip, Yun Ruoleng scoffed, unsheathed his sword, and pounced towards the woman. The silver whip in the woman''s hand danced nimbly like a snake, but it did not stop Yun Ruoleng''s attack, and before even touching the corner of Yun Ruoleng''s clothes, Yun Ruoleng had already teleported behind the woman, sending out a palm, "Peng!" With a sound, the woman was thrown into the river.


    "Miss ¡­"


    The servant girl who was laughing at Yun Ruoleng a moment ago was also shocked, her first reaction after falling into the river was not to cry for help but to be confused.


    "Miss ¡­" Zhu Lan was also dumbstruck. He could not help but exclaim out loud, pulling her to the side and standing properly. He turned around and said to the guards, "Go down and save them!"


    Yun Ruoleng kept his sword well, his expression as calm as usual: "Go and tell your master that I pushed him away."


    "Yes ¡­" Zhu Lan didn''t understand what Yun Ruoleng meant, and only responded with a word, turning his head back to look at Yun Ruoleng. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not have any intention to stop her, he left.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face became gloomy following Zhu Lan''s departure. For such a woman to make a move, I''m afraid that her situation is not that simple. Furthermore, with Huang Tu''s personality, if the other party was useless to him, would he accept her?


    Obviously, he wouldn''t accept her.


    "Don''t you want to deal with him after he gets beaten?"


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was in a trance, a familiar voice came out from beside his ear. Yun Ruoleng looked over and saw a smile on Jun Qingshang''s unfamiliar face, and nodded to her.


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, and using the power of a witch, he asked, "Who is she?"


    "Han Mo''s precious daughter, Han Qianqian."


    Han Qianqian? Yun Ruoleng gave Jun Qingshang a faint smile. She was only Han Mo''s daughter, and even if Phoenix Diagram knew the cause and effect, it wouldn''t dare to do anything to him.


    Yun Ruoleng was indeed Yun Ruoleng. To be able to think of a person''s state of mind to such an extent, she was probably the only one.


    Han Qianqian was fished out of the water by the guards, her entire body was completely drenched, her beautiful figure could be seen from head to toe, the guards all looked away, not daring to look at her, there were even some who hid behind Yun Ruoleng, as if they had found their pillar.


    Yun Ruoleng provocatively raised his brows at her: "How about it? Do you want to continue? "


    "Come! Do you think I''m afraid of you? " With that, the whip in Han Qianqian''s hand struck towards Yun Ruoleng once again, without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to make a move, there was already someone at his side, the familiar person suddenly appeared in front of him, holding onto the whip that Han Qianqian used to attack him, at that moment everyone''s breathing calmed down, and all looked at Jun Qingshang who was pretending to be a servant.


    "We are ordered to protect the lady. Even if you are going to risk your life, you must ensure her safety!"


    Jun Qingshang''s righteous and righteous appearance made the guards, who were hiding, shrink their necks. The expressions on their faces changed again and again as they considered the pros and cons.

 C318

    Yun Ruoleng''s heart warmed. He was still the same him, the same him who wouldn''t let himself be harmed in the slightest. If it wasn''t for the fact that this wasn''t the time, Yun Ruoleng would most likely have leaped into his embrace.


    "You have to think this through!" A guard who was very familiar with the servant reminded her in a low voice, "Although this lady is someone our emperor wants us to protect, she is still someone of Heaven''s Enlightenment! We can do nothing to help her. "


    "If anything happens to her, we won''t be able to escape responsibility!" Jun Qingshang''s face darkened, he did not show much reaction to their neutral attitude, blood flowed down from the hand holding the whip, and in Yun Ruoleng''s heart, this silver whip had a backstab!


    "You think you can stop me?" Han Qianqian tugged on the whip, but he did not expect that he would not be able to move it at all, causing his face to turn black.


    Yun Ruoleng stuck her head out from behind Jun Qingshang with a sweet smile: "I will accompany you when you fight, but with your figure ¡­ "Tsk tsk ¡­"


    Ah!" Only then did Han Qianqian come back to her senses. She realized that although her clothes were sticking to her body, her figure was already visible to the guards!


    The servant girl beside her immediately reacted, she placed the cape on Han Qianqian and whispered a few sentences into Han Qianqian''s ears. Han Qianqian glared at the servant then glared at Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang: "Let''s go!"


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, and he placed his hand on Jun Qingshang''s shoulder. Only then did Jun Qingshang let go, and Han Qianqian angrily swung the whip.


    As if seeing his savior, Han Qianqian pounced towards the Phoenix Map, but was stopped by Ah Zheng who was behind the Phoenix Map. Yun Ruoleng retracted his hand that was on Jun Qingshang''s body, adjusted his sleeves and watched the scene with a smile.


    The gaze of the Phoenix Diagram fell on Yun Ruoleng, and then onto the miserable Han Qianqian, and its expression became even more unsightly: "If you don''t have the ability, don''t cause trouble for us! From today onwards, you are not allowed to take even half a step out of the courtyard gate! "


    "No!" Han Qianqian pointed at Yun Ruoleng, extremely unconvinced, "She pushed me into the water, why is she not getting punished?"


    "Because you are useless!" Phoenix Diagram did not hesitate to reply her five words. He did not even bother to look at her and directly waved his hand for people to take her away.


    From start to finish, the gaze of the Phoenix Diagram never left Yun Ruoleng. Like a proud and pampered little kitten, Yun Ruoleng stood where he was, quietly looking at the Phoenix Diagram.


    After Han Qianqian was taken away, Huang Tu walked towards her side at a neither fast nor slow pace. Yun Ruoleng turned around and did not even bother to look at him, and said to the guards beside her: "Clean this place up, and prepare a new set of things for me."


    "This ¡­" The guard subconsciously looked at the Phoenix Diagram, but the Phoenix Diagram only looked at Yun Ruoleng quietly, and only nodded slightly after hearing her words.


    When Huang Tu walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side, his gaze looked over her shoulder at the "servant" behind her. His phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.


    "Your subordinate''s responsibilities lie." Jun Qingshang''s eyes flashed with a cold light, as he slightly lowered his head and replied.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face turned cold. Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to make a move against Feng Tu, he felt his body go limp as all of the strength in his body was sucked out, and he couldn''t even open his mouth to speak.


    "That girl is very wild. It''s good that she didn''t hurt you." The voice of the Phoenix Fairy Beauty seemed to be very soft, only she and Jun Qingshang could hear it. Yun Ruoleng frowned, the anger in his heart was rising, but there was nothing he could do.


    Jun Qingshang clenched his fingers tightly, his face ashen, as he lowered his head to hide the killing intent in his heart.


    The phoenix image completely captured the changes in Jun Qingshang, and was extremely satisfied. It increased the distance between Yun Ruoleng and itself, bent down, and carried Yun Ruoleng in his arms before walking out: "You don''t have to carry the things, Miss is tired."


    "Yes sir!" The guards looked at each other, then cupped their hands and sent Yun Ruoleng and Feng Tu away.


    Inside the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, after Phoenix Diagram carried Yun Ruoleng back, he opened her acupoints and revealed a pure and kind expression: "This is a method to let them know your position in my heart."


    Yun Ruoleng lifted his hand to attack, but it was easily resolved by Feng Tu. His face was ashen, and he stayed in bed, furiously asking, "I need these? Phoenix Diagram, put away your fake good intentions! I still don''t know what you''re thinking! "


    "I knew Little Ruo Er was smart!" The corner of Huang Tu''s mouth lifted as he lowered his head and pecked his forehead. Before she could react, he was already several meters away from her.


    Yun Ruoleng was immediately angered, he released a ray of golden power from his right hand, then released it from his Phoenix Mask. His body flashed as he laughed: "You can''t beat me."


    It was a fact that they could not beat him! But he could still vent his anger!


    Yun Ruoleng did not bother with Phoenix Diagram, the movements in his hands became even sharper, each move was fatal, but it was quickly resolved by Phoenix Diagram. Yun Ruoleng was sweating profusely, but Phoenix Diagram acted like nothing had happened, leisurely eating an apple.


    "Phoenix Diagram!" Yun Ruoleng frowned, he was not even this angry when Jun Qingshang provoked her.


    This Phoenix Diagram really has the ability!


    Huang Tu seemed to be able to tell that Yun Ruoleng was truly angry, he threw the apple to the side and sighed helplessly: "Enough, I''ll give you a beating. Don''t be angry, even if you anger me to death, I won''t be able to do anything about it."


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up. Hit yourself! That was a good thing.


    Huang Tu looked at Yun Ruoleng''s sinister smile and felt regret.


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his wrist, and smiled craftily: "I will never be able to keep up with a single word, the Emperor has many golden words, please do not go back on your word."


    The corner of Huang Tu''s mouth rose: "I have my conditions for you to hit me. I didn''t call for nothing. "


    "Tell me about it?" Yun Ruoleng was curious, what conditions were there for him to be willing to accept it?


    Huang Tu''s eyes lit up, and he appeared in front of Yun Ruoleng in a flash: "You injured me, and want you to take care of me yourself."


    "You ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s face immediately darkened, if he still needed him to take care of his injuries, wouldn''t that be asking for trouble? She, Yun Ruoleng, was not an idiot.


    "How is it?" Seeing her expression, he knew that she would not continue to fight him.


    Yun Ruoleng clenched his fists. If he couldn''t beat Yue Yang now, he might not be able to do so in the future.


    Huang Tu walked out of Yun Ruoleng''s room with an extremely happy expression on his face, and the guards and maids waiting outside looked at his expression and couldn''t help but take an extra glance at the Phoenix Warm Pavilion.


    It was unknown whether or not the Phoenix Diagram was playing too deeply into the drama, but as they neared dinner time, an imperial edict spread throughout the entire mansion. Some people resisted this imperial edict, while others were extremely happy.


    Yun Ruoleng held onto the imperial edict like it was a hot potato, he didn''t know what tricks the Phoenix Diagram was trying to pull off. A trace of killing intent flashed across her originally delicate face.

 C319

    "Why is the girl unhappy?" Zhu Lan asked in confusion. Everyone in the Yue Ling was looking forward to such a good thing!


    "Happy?" Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly, "I should still be happy with such a method to humiliate me. I don''t know what he means, but I do know that this is an insult. "


    "The emperor really treats girls differently. Are you thinking too much?" Zhu Lan tried to analyze it with Yun Ruoleng, but it was indeed Yun Ruoleng''s ice-cold gaze. Zhu Lan immediately shut his mouth, the first thing he had to do was to look at his master''s face, since Yun Ruoleng''s expression was currently bad, if he were to continue speaking, he would only meet trouble.


    There was nothing to say about Yun Ruoleng''s appearance, as this naturally made the people in the mansion think of a single word ¡ª "golden house hid a delicate appearance".


    Jun Qingshang stood outside the crowd, his fingers tightened and tightened. All of the anger in his body was suppressed, but in his heart, he was thinking of taking Yun Ruoleng away as soon as possible.


    After the Phoenix Diagram had been carefully observed by the people, the palace had already been thrown into chaos. Because of this, the Feng Wanxing Pavilion had been the center of attention.


    "Future Queen?" Han Qianqian who had fallen into the water today was angrily sitting in his courtyard, the silver whip in his hand struck the body of the servant that had sent the message with a "Pa" sound, "Who spread it randomly!"


    "This... This is the decree passed down by the Emperor and His Majesty, General Ah Zheng. " The pageboy hugged his painful arm, his voice getting softer and softer as a pair of bean-sized eyes continuously scanned Han Qianqian''s body.


    Han Qianqian raised his whip and wanted to hit her, but was stopped by a servant: "Miss, this has nothing to do with him. If you want to hit him, you should hit the right person."


    The maid''s words allowed her to regain some sense of reason as she waved her hand at the manservant, "Scram!"


    Although the servant had only received one whip blow, this whip was not an ordinary one. Even through the cloth, the flesh within the whip could still be clearly seen flying about.


    Inside the Phoenix Warming Pavilion, the Phoenix Diagram seemed to be trying to prove something as it brought Jun Qingshang and the others into the Phoenix Warm Pavilion. Yun Ruoleng was still fuming at the news of Huang Tu coming over, so she immediately tried to find him to reason with him.


    "Little girl, don''t be impatient." Looking at the furious Yun Ruoleng, he hurriedly said, "After entering the palace for so long, I should have given you a name. But you are so breathtaking, a normal name cannot be assigned to you.


    "Satisfied your head!" Yun Ruoleng simply could not see clearly who was standing behind the Phoenix Diagram. A golden light flashed as he raised his hand, aiming straight for the chest of the Phoenix Diagram. Huang Tu moved his body slightly, revealing the figure of the person behind him. Yun Ruoleng was startled and quickly adjusted the golden light in his hand.


    "Bam!" The golden light brushed past Jun Qingshang''s ears and struck the wooden door behind him. The wooden door instantly turned into powder.


    "Tsk tsk, how poisonous." Huang Tu crossed his arms in front of his chest, and said in a hoodlum voice: "My beloved concubine, are you planning to murder your husband?"


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, her gaze rested on the perfectly fine Jun Qingshang for a good while, before she let out a cold laugh, "It''s true that I want to kill you, but I''ve never promised you that senseless title!"


    "What about the future Queen?" The Phoenix Diagram glanced at Jun Qingshang, and once again fixed its gaze at Yun Ruoleng, "How many people want the position?"


    "Phoenix Diagram, are you alright?" Yun Ruoleng''s face became even more unsightly, "The world is vulgar, I would not associate with the slander! If you''ve had enough, then remove your title from it. "


    "That won''t do!" raised his hand, wanting to slap that monster on his face. The Phoenix Diagram took this opportunity to place its lips on Yun Ruoleng''s lips and kissed: "The golden words, the words spoken, will not change. Besides, I don''t feel wronged even when you''re the empress. Why would you feel wronged? "


    With such an ambiguous feeling, Jun Qingshang''s face turned green. Although he did not move his head, the killing intent around him became even more obvious. Yun Ruoleng frowned, she looked at the slender jade hand she was holding, and instantly felt a wave of disgust.


    "Go away!" Yun Ruoleng felt uncomfortable looking at the Phoenix Diagram, and at the moment, he no longer cared if he was the emperor. He used his hands and legs to fight with him, but the more Phoenix Diagram fought, the more wretched it became.


    Yun Ruoleng was so angry that his face turned green, he knew that he couldn''t win and was too lazy to fight with him, he turned back to wait for Jun Qingshang who was still standing at his original position and said: "Huang Dian, why did you bring him here?"


    "He has done a great service to protect the Lord today. I did not reward him. After thinking about it, I brought him here to claim a reward for you." Huang Tu''s smile did not reach his eyes. Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly as his heart clattered, could it be that he was discovered?


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Jun Qingshang seriously. He seemed to be completely different from before, even his body was different, just that the pressure on his body was the same as before.


    Yun Ruoleng slightly heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at Phoenix Diagram with half-believing and half-doubting eyes: "Then give this person to me."


    "This ¡­" The smile on Phoenix Diagram''s face vanished. Giving it to her was not a difficult matter, it was just that the relationship between the two of them ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng laughed sarcastically: "Weren''t you the one who asked me to make the decision? Since protecting the master was beneficial, then he would stay and wait on him, if the heavens were enlightened and it would be easy to find loyal people, then Yue Ling ¡­ It''s good enough that you don''t kill me. "


    Yun Ruoleng came from Heaven''s Initiation, so the people from Yue Ling were all hostile towards her. Even when he gave the order, there were still people who tried to do something to her. It would be good if this person stayed, but it would also be convenient for us to insult him.


    Thus, this matter was decided. Jun Qingshang had played the role of a "servant" and successfully entered the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, but what made Yun Ruoleng unhappy was that imperial decree. If the Phoenix Diagram said it could not be withdrawn, then would she have to carry this title for the rest of her life?


    "If you feel bad, then come with me!" After the Phoenix Diagram left, Yun Ruoleng sent Zhu Lan flying and the entire courtyard only had two people, Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng rolled her eyes at him. She would have left long ago if she could, but she could not exit the entire mansion from the outer wall.


    No matter from which angle, it was impossible!


    Jun Qingshang saw her rolling her eyes, and suddenly thought of something, her eyes darkened: "This mansion has an array formation, you can''t go out, right?"


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng scratched his head in frustration. This was not a simple matter, if he wanted to leave, he had to think of a way to break this formation.


    Jun Qingshang really wanted to console Yun Ruoleng, but he didn''t know where to start, and the two of them once again fell into silence.


    Ever since Jun Qingshang had arrived at the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, the Phoenix Diagram would appear four or five times a day. It would report in punctually, and after he was done with his matters, it would send some small things over to "make love" with Yun Ruoleng. Although they would fight a match every time they were intimate, Jun Qingshang had to admit that this would make him very angry.

 C320

    The Phoenix Diagram seemed to have fallen for this kind of day, and after half a month had passed, Jun Qingshang was finally unable to endure it any longer.


    "In a while, when the Phoenix Diagram is here, I will definitely kill him!"


    "This is not the manner of a regent." In these few days, she had fought with Phoenix Fairy Beauty many times, but all of a sudden, she realised that her power had risen by two levels. Thinking about it, she felt that fighting with Phoenix Fairy Beauty was not a bad thing.


    Jun Qingshang squinted her eyes, and a cold aura burst out: "Are you enjoying yourself?"


    "Jun Qingshang, who do you think I am?" Yun Ruoleng''s face immediately darkened, "Even if I don''t like you anymore, you''re not some random person. Don''t tell me you don''t see that he did this on purpose?"


    Deliberately? The reason he did so was because he wanted to use his princess consort to provoke Jun Qingshang. As long as he made a move, the Phoenix Fairy Beauty would reasonably be able to catch him.


    However, Jun Qingshang could not tolerate it anymore. He could do whatever he wanted, but how could he endure watching the person he loved being humiliated like this?


    "It''s not like Feng Tu really did anything to me. Isn''t it just eating together every day and fighting with me afterwards?" What Yun Ruoleng said didn''t matter, but he had already scolded the Phoenix Map more than a thousand times in his heart.


    "I got it!" Jun Qingshang turned around and left with an emotionless face. Although Yun Ruoleng did not understand it, she was not worried that Jun Qingshang would do anything foolish, and compared to that, Yun Ruoleng believed that he definitely had a better way to take care of the Phoenix Diagram.


    It had to be said that the two of them had the same thoughts. After Jun Qingshang left the house, he didn''t do anything else and just sat on the deck to protect Yun Ruoleng.


    The Phoenix Diagram came to the Warm Phoenix Pavilion on time as usual, and it even brought a lot of things this time. The moment Huang Tu entered and looked at Jun Qingshang, his eyes darkened and he did not say anything, directly walking into Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    In the room, Yun Ruoleng was chewing on melon seeds and reading a book, his mouth muttering, "You never visit the Three Treasures Hall without reason, what are you doing here again?"


    "With the future Queen of course." Phoenix Diagram casually found a seat and sat down: "I''ll tell you about the battle in front while I''m at it."


    "The soldiers of Heaven''s Initiation have reached the city walls again?" Yun Ruoleng put down the book in his hand, and said with a hint of schadenfreude: "I told you this a long time ago, you''re not his opponent, you wouldn''t listen."


    "It''s not certain who will win!" "Eat first, then I will tell you about the rest."


    Yun Ruoleng, for the first time in history, did not cause trouble with him and happily sat down to eat dinner with him. The Phoenix Diagram had been looking at Yun Ruoleng from start to finish. There was a little bit of reluctance in its heart, but it was quickly dispelled.


    My royal sister is still waiting for her to save her life. If I show mercy now, then my royal sister probably won''t be able to revive in this life.


    Being stared at and eating, Yun Ruoleng felt uncomfortable all over, so he reached out to scratch his face and stared at Huang Tu unhappily: "Why are you eating your food, and why are you looking at me like that?"


    "Nothing." Phoenix Diagram quickly covered up the emotions in his eyes and focused on eating the food on the table.


    After the meal, Yun Ruoleng gracefully sat at the table and watched the servants clean up the table, then obediently left.


    Feng Tu looked at Yun Ruoleng for a long time, but he was not in a hurry to speak. Yun Ruoleng''s entire body felt uncomfortable from being stared at.


    "Are you uncomfortable staying with me?" Huang Tu paused for a moment, then continued: "Actually, I don''t want to capture you, it''s just that ¡­"


    "They''ve already been captured. What other explanation do they have?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, thinking that the Phoenix Diagram was just here to be a joke.


    Huang Tu frowned, his handsome face moving closer to Yun Ruoleng. "I''m not trying to explain!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression slightly changed, and his gaze slightly turned cold.


    Seeing her change in expression, his mood instantly became a lot better. He waved his hand at Yun Ruoleng: "Don''t be scared, I was only saying that I would ask for your help."


    "Help?" Yun Ruoleng let out a cold laugh. Only now did he remember that his so-called help was not just any ordinary help. The dark side of the Phoenix Diagram was not something she could resist alone. Even with the addition of Jun Qingshang, they might not be his match.


    "Have you recently broken through to the Grand Warlock level?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s pupils contracted. With the Phoenix Jade on him, no one would be able to discover the Shaman Energy on her body, and the Phoenix Diagram found out that she hadn''t used it on him in the recent period of time. How did he know?


    "Curious?" Huang Tu moved his face a little closer, but who would have thought that Yun Ruoleng would slap his face and push his face back an arm.


    "If I hadn''t said it earlier, I wouldn''t have asked." This was exactly how Yun Ruoleng''s temper was. She naturally would not ask too many questions about things that you were unwilling to say.


    Huang Tu pursed his lips, as if he half believed her words. What he did not expect was that when Yun Ruoleng said that he would not ask anymore, he shouted to the outside, "See the guests out!" After that, he headed straight for the inner room.


    Huang Tu looked in the direction where Yun Ruoleng had left in surprise, his expression changing again: "Didn''t you want to know the situation outside? "I ¡­"


    "I''m tired, let''s talk about other things tomorrow!" Yun Ruoleng''s clear and beautiful voice came out from the house, choking up all of the things that Feng Tu wanted to say.


    There was still a way for Yun Ruoleng to get angry, but facing the silent Yun Ruoleng, he had no way at all, he could only watch as she left. Zhu Lan had already appeared beside Feng Tu, and he glared at her unhappily. With a cold snort, he finally left the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, unwilling to part with her.


    Yun Ruoleng''s mood naturally became a lot better. Although the questions in his heart had not been answered, there were still a few more that remained in his heart. Taking advantage of Zhu Lan''s absence, Yun Ruoleng stuck his head out and nodded to Jun Qingshang who was seated on the porch.


    Jun Qingshang looked at her suspiciously, as a few questions popped up in his mind: What is she trying to do? You want to run away with me?


    "How is the battle outside?" Yun Ruoleng sent a sound transmission using her power, and quickly, no one would notice it.


    Jun Qingshang sighed helplessly. He had thought that she wanted to leave with him. He didn''t want to do it for such a small reason. Jun Qingshang was unhappy and decided to ignore her first after sitting on the porch.


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, her delicate little face was filled with haze. What was this person trying to make a fuss about?


    When Zhu Lan returned from sending the Phoenix Map, he couldn''t help but shiver, yet he couldn''t find the source of the cold energy at all.


    "Hey, look around to see if someone''s intruding." Zhu Lan was not sure if it was directed at Yun Ruoleng''s killing intent, since the cold air was both evil and cold.

 C321

    Jun Qingshang glanced at her, then got up and left the hall. Zhu Lan suspiciously looked at Jun Qingshang''s back. Standing on the stairs, he watched as disappeared before knocking the door to enter Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    "Miss, there''s something wrong with that attendant." Zhu Lan entered the room and closed the door tightly, his face full of anxiety.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his head from the book and looked at Zhu Lan with a smile that was not a smile: "Oh?"


    "When I came in just now, the coldness around him was enough to make people shiver. It was as if he was giving birth to something." Zhu Lan''s face turned red, seeing Yun Ruoleng''s disbelieving look, she immediately became anxious, "Really! This servant has never seen such a terrifying person. "


    "I think it''s not bad." Yun Ruoleng chuckled, "To be able to scare you, that would mean that his aura is enough. I wonder who''s aura is stronger between him and Feng Tu."


    Zhu Lan was at a loss for words, he lowered his head and said softly, "The Emperor''s aura is not that terrifying!"


    Yun Ruoleng took a good look at Zhu Lan''s expression, he lowered his head and continued to study the book in his hands. The matter of him being promoted to a Great Magus had been exposed, so he could imagine how many spies the Phoenix Map had placed in front of her. If she and Jun Qingshang were to be too intimate, it was likely that there would be more trouble. Perhaps the Phoenix Diagram would even find out that Jun Qingshang had faked the servant.


    Although she didn''t want to see Jun Qingshang, she was still worried for him. After all, he had said it himself, and both she and Jiang Shan would definitely choose Jiang Shan. Now that he said he wanted to save her, it wouldn''t be that simple either!


    Zhu Lan realised that when he was speaking, Yun Ruoleng did not even listen and could not help but raise his volume: "Miss, this servant has serious business with you!"


    "Got it." Yun Ruoleng regained his senses and nodded, but he did not have any other reactions.


    As a servant, Zhu Lan did not dare to say too much. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not say anything, Fortune left the room. As soon as Zhu Lan left, Yun Ruoleng closed the book in his hand heavily, his face turning ashen.


    This Zhu Lan was no longer the Zhu Lan who appeared to be normal on the surface, but in reality, he was normal. Yun Ruoleng could guarantee that if this continued, Jun Qingshang would be exposed sooner or later.


    For the sake of Jun Qingshang''s safety, Yun Ruoleng had no choice but to send him back into the pile of guards.


    After Zhu Lan told this matter to Phoenix Diagram, Phoenix Diagram''s expression became even more unsightly, smashing the top quality porcelain that was by his hand into pieces, "I didn''t expect that what''s in her heart right now is someone else!"


    "Please calm your anger, Your Majesty!" Yu Yang and A''Zheng who were kneeling on the ground didn''t dare to say anything, they only dared to calm Huang Tu down. The Phoenix Diagram only glanced at the two of them coldly for a moment before it turned around and walked back into the room.


    Yu Yang and Ah Zheng looked at each other and knew that the Phoenix Diagram was currently angry, so they respectfully left.


    "Why do you think Master didn''t kill the manservant with one slash?" A Zheng was curious. In the past, Master had met with people he did not like with a single slash, didn''t he? Could it be that a small guard could come up with something big?


    "There''s something wrong with this attendant!" Yu Yang had always thought of a few more questions, but from Zhu Lan''s report and the expression of his master, he could tell that this servant''s background was not small, and was not someone that could be solved with a single slash.


    "Impossible!" On the other hand, Ah Zheng had a look of disbelief on his face, "He''s someone close to the prince, I''ve known him before."


    Yu Yang was stunned, the expression on his face was indescribably weird. Ah Zheng felt goosebumps all over his body from his strange gaze: "What I said was true, the previous manservant was also silent like this."


    "Then did you notice anything different with the current attendant?" In order to get to the bottom of this, Yu Yang let Ah Zheng think quickly.


    However, Ah Zheng firmly shook his head and replied, "No, he has been doing things in my hands for a period of time and is very capable. He has always been the type of person who is silent."


    Yu Yang didn''t say anything. According to A Zheng, this person should be one of the most well-hidden guards. The type that looks forward to becoming a general, but meets no one and is always the emperor''s guard.


    The conversation between Ah Zheng and Yu Yang was not spread out, and Phoenix Diagram naturally did not know that Ah Zheng knew of the servant.


    Yun Ruoleng hastily arranged for Jun Qingshang to return. She never thought that the Phoenix Diagram would be suspicious of him because of this matter, since she felt guilty for doing such a thing. Jun Qingshang was a thousand times unwilling, but when facing Yun Ruoleng''s ice-cold expression, he only opened his mouth but did not say anything.


    Maybe Zhu Lan was just reminding himself out of goodwill, so he could find an excuse to send her away. If Jun Qingshang wanted to leave, it wouldn''t be too troublesome, after all, losing a guard was different from losing a guard to a future wangfei.


    After Zhu Lan had returned from the Phoenix Diagram, he was sitting on the veranda as he quietly stared at her. Zhu Lan''s entire body went numb from her stare, as he walked forward and bowed slightly, "The weather is hot, young lady is still ¡­"


    "Where did he go?" Yun Ruoleng''s gaze moved from her body to the sky above the scorching sun. A smile hung on the corner of his mouth, and a pair of phoenix eyes that seemed to contain a smile that was not a smile hid a little bit of killing intent.


    "Miss, please calm your anger. This servant has only gone to the icehouse to retrieve the ice. When I went there, I found out that the manager at this time of the day was not here." Zhu Lan kneeled on the ground with his head lowered, looking extremely nervous.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression changed, he did not need to look to know that she was lying, but as to why she was lying, the answer was obvious. Yun Ruoleng couldn''t be bothered to tell her that this little girl was sent by the Phoenix Diagram, it was obvious who she was loyal to just by looking at her.


    "Miss ¡­" Zhu Lan had a bad feeling. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was about to leave, she became anxious and threw herself at the side of Yun Ruoleng''s skirt, "Does Miss not trust this servant?"


    "You are his man, so how can I not believe you?" Yun Ruoleng''s voice was as calm as water, but it was deadly. With one sentence, he pointed out that she was from the Phoenix Diagram, and with the other hand, he hinted that she did not want to serve the second master.


    Zhu Lan collapsed onto the ground like a deflated ball.


    So it turned out that she was only probing him, and he was foolish enough to think that everything was within the grasp of the Emperor. He didn''t expect that this woman''s perception would be so strong.


    Although Yun Ruoleng did not like Zhu Lan as a spy, he did not chase her away. After all, there were many benefits to having a spy by one''s side sometimes.


    "Zhu Lan, when did you follow the Phoenix Diagram?" In the afternoon, Yun Ruoleng seemed to be no longer angry. As she asked Zhu Lan, she sighed: "Un!" The taste was good.


    Zhu Lan lowered his head and said: "When I was very young, this servant couldn''t remember how old I was back then.

 C322

    "Ah ¡­" Yun Ruoleng opened his mouth wide, and looked at Zhu Lan with a face full of disbelief. At that time, the Phoenix Diagram was only around seven or eight years old. He was inside the Imperial Palace, a prince, how did he manage that?


    "At that time, this servant didn''t know who the master was. It was only after he was sent to the palace four years ago that I found out that the person who had been keeping us was the Prince. At that time, this servant was extremely excited. Although his highness hadn''t been to the palace for several days, and everyone still needed to find a way to cover for him, and the women in the mansion were getting more and more numerous day after day. Master''s life really wasn''t easy. "


    When he mentioned the Phoenix Map, Zhu Lan seemed to have thousands of things to say, and as he spoke, it became a sigh.


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows slightly knitted. Now that he thought about it, since Jun Qingshang and Feng Tu both lived in the imperial family, the treatment of the two were like heaven and earth.


    Jun Qingshang was sent out of the palace when he was young. He returned when he was eight, went to the battlefield at the age of twelve, and became an invincible Battle-King at the age of fourteen.


    In the same imperial household, Jun Qingshang had been respected and raised up as a prince, but the Phoenix Diagram lived in a haze and wanted to use its unbridled lust to conceal its radiance. No wonder this man was calm and unflustered, after seizing the throne in one strike, his methods were merciless, he didn''t even let a crippled prince off.


    "Girl? "Miss?" Zhu Lan saw Yun Ruoleng looking in a direction in a daze and called out to him softly.


    "Ugh ¡­" Yun Ruoleng came back to reality and smiled at her. She had accidentally felt sympathy for the Phoenix Diagram.


    "My lady does not know that my master was able to live until now because of the little princess. "It''s a pity that the little princess ¡­" Zhu Lan sighed, he seemed to have thought of something, he immediately covered his mouth and knelt down, "This servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die."


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression changed slightly, as if he had gotten hold of the main point, and looked at Zhu Lan with blazing eyes: "Go on!"


    "This ¡­" Zhu Lan hesitated, he looked around, then shook his head: "Miss, please forgive me! The entire estate knows that the Little Princess is a taboo that the Emperor forbids, and this servant doesn''t dare say anything. "


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly leaned over, and pinched Zhu Lan''s chin with her index finger and thumb, making her look at him: "Huang Tu left me here to save his sister, didn''t you?"


    "Yes sir!" Zhu Lan replied as an inexplicable sense of fear hit him.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded his head in satisfaction: "If you don''t say it, then how can I save her?"


    "This ¡­" Zhu Lan was still hesitating, but Yun Ruoleng loosened his grip on her chin and continued to eat the fruits.


    Summer fruits were truly watery and the flesh was sweet, especially the peaches, as they bit down on the sweet juice and filled his mouth, Yun Ruoleng''s mood was unspeakably good.


    Compared to Yun Ruoleng, Zhu Lan''s emotions were much more complicated. Kneeling on the ground, standing up didn''t mean that. Yun Ruoleng leisurely bit onto the peach in his hand, and asked: "Have you made up your mind?"


    "I ¡­" Zhu Lan''s pupils contracted. He did not know how to reply to Yun Ruoleng, so he propped his chin up while looking at her with a smile that was not a smile. Zhu Lan felt his heart tighten, as if his thoughts were about to be seen through by Yun Ruoleng in the next moment.


    Yun Ruoleng was really not in a hurry, she did not believe that she would not be able to force her out even after everything that had happened. As if feeling the pressure in his heart, Zhu Lan''s gaze would occasionally glance at Yun Ruoleng who was at the side. With such an unsettled state of mind, Yun Ruoleng could not help but raise the corner of his mouth and fiercely bite the peach on his hand.


    The two of them did not speak, and the stalemate went on for who knows how long, Yun Ruoleng finished a peach and drank half a cup of tea, then he picked up a book and started reading slowly, as though he had forgotten about Zhu Lan who was still kneeling on the ground.


    Zhu Lan kneeled on the ground and moved, after kneeling for a long time, her legs had become weak, but since Yun Ruoleng did not let her get up, she did not dare to.


    Time passed minute after minute, until Yun Ruoleng finally finished reading the book in his hand, as if he had just noticed Zhu Lan, and exclaimed: "What are you doing?"


    Zhu Lan didn''t know what to say, and just now, Yun Ruoleng didn''t tell him to get up nor did he make him kneel. Furthermore, Yun Ruoleng extended a hand to help her up, and frowned: "If you were to kneel down, who will be responsible for my daily life?"


    After Zhu Lan helped Zhu Lan up, he pursed his lips and did not say a word. Yun Ruoleng''s mood seemed to have improved quite a bit, and a slight blush appeared on her delicate face. "Do you want to know the reason why I like the Regent?"


    Zhu Lan looked at Yun Ruoleng with a puzzled expression. Yun Ruoleng laughed lightly: "Because he can help me put down the rear courtyard. He will only marry me."


    "What does Miss mean by this?" Zhu Lan was even more confused, he did not understand why Yun Ruoleng would say such strange words.


    However, Yun Ruoleng did not feel that this was strange. On the contrary, he felt the pressure in his heart loosen a little, and gently waved his hand: "Although I do not understand how the Phoenix Diagram works, but I do know that he is using this matter to take revenge on Jun Qingshang. As for why he wants to do this, I do not know. "


    "The emperor has feelings for girls." After Zhu Lan said these words, even he himself was in disbelief as he lowered his head and said these words in a low voice.


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng could not help but sneer in his heart.


    Friendly? Does the Phoenix Diagram have any intentions? Where does a man without a heart get his affection?


    "His Majesty, he ¡­"


    "Enough!" Yun Ruoleng cut him off harshly, and his face was instantly filled with cold air, as if he was someone who was happily chatting the last second, and would change in the next second.


    Zhu Lan shrunk his head and looked at Yun Ruoleng''s face, which was changing expression even faster, and felt a burst of fear in his heart.


    It had to be said that Yun Ruoleng''s expression was extremely scary. Standing behind her, he slightly lowered his head, not daring to continue speaking.


    The atmosphere in the courtyard was occasionally cheerful and occasionally oppressive. When Feng Tu came back, only Zhu Lan was left. Huang Tu looked around, then stopped at Zhu Lan: "Where are you?"


    "This ¡­" Zhu Lan held onto the handkerchief in his hand, looking as if he was hesitating to speak.


    Feng Tu''s heart tightened, "Where is he?"


    "My ¡­ My lady said not to let anyone follow her, she ¡­ she went out ¡­" Zhu Lan''s voice became weaker and weaker, until she finally stopped talking.


    Phoenix''s heart fiercely dug her up, and only then did he send his guards to look for someone. It was not because she was afraid that Yun Ruoleng would run away, but because a group of people had come to the Palace recently and would harm Yun Ruoleng, she had to find her as soon as possible.


    The secret guards of the Phoenix Diagram were not just for show. With a single order from the Phoenix Diagram, the secret guards began to survey the surroundings. A large living person just like that, they did not believe, had disappeared into thin air.


    The mansion was in a state of upheaval, and the client was standing by the painting pond feeling the cool summer air.

 C323

    This lotus pond was the coldest place in the entire mansion. When there was nothing to do, she enjoyed staying here to enjoy the cool air. Yun Ruoleng stood by the river and watched, his heart a lot calmer.


    "Sure enough, you are here." A familiar voice made Yun Ruoleng''s body tremble, he slowly turned around to look at the person, and the corner of his mouth raised with difficulty, "Why are you here?"


    "Everyone in the mansion has started moving." The person who came was none other than Jun Qingshang. At the moment, his tone was very slow, as if he was talking about an unimportant matter. "I''m just looking for you."


    "It would be my honor." The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, and his eyes once again looked towards the pond.


    Jun Qingshang couldn''t see her expression, and couldn''t figure out what she was thinking. He frowned slightly, "Have I ever told you before? Your beauty is always erratic."


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng laughed lightly, "It''s a pity that we won''t be able to go back."


    "I can''t go back ¡­" Jun Qingshang slowly mulled over these words, when suddenly there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside. Yun Ruoleng turned and glared at him, indicating him to quickly leave.


    However, Jun Qingshang did not move, and just stood there.


    Yun Ruoleng panicked and reached out to push him. "If you don''t leave now, you''ll be seen again, the Phoenix Diagram is already suspicious of you."


    "It would only be more suspicious now that he''s gone." Jun Qingshang held her hand and laughed, "Don''t worry, even if he knows about it now, he won''t do anything to me."


    "Who cares about you!" Yun Ruoleng unhappily retracted his hand, ignored her, and walked out. Jun Qingshang wanted to stop her, but it was already too late. He turned his head and saw Huang Tu standing at the entrance of the courtyard, looking at the two of them with narrowed eyes.


    When Yun Ruoleng saw his dark and heavy expression, he inwardly cursed. Just as he was about to speak, he subconsciously took a step back when he saw the map appear before him.


    "Phoenix, Phoenix Diagram ¡­"


    "Is this a reunion?" The Phoenix Diagram glanced at Jun Qingshang, then looked at Yun Ruoleng charmingly, "Or are you talking about something else?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows slightly knitted as he felt the Phoenix Diagram pressing on him step by step. "There''s nothing going on between us."


    "But what I see is not so!" Huang Tu extended his arm and pulled Yun Ruoleng, who was still retreating, into his embrace.


    Yun Ruoleng pushed his chest with resistance: "What you saw was not true. Furthermore, who are you! Why do I have to explain so much to you? "


    "You are my fiancee, my queen, the future mother of Yue Ling!" The sonorous and forceful way he spoke happened to fall into the ears of the guards who followed behind him.


    Jun Qingshang stood by the side of the lotus pond and clenched his fingers. The killing intent that flashed past his eyes made Yun Ruoleng''s body tremble as he hurriedly smiled: "Look, isn''t this still an unmarried couple! "What''s more, he came to find me. You asked people to search the entire mansion, so he came here to search. When I heard you were looking for me, I was prepared to go look for you."


    "Really?" Huang Tu had an ambiguous smile on his face, but from start to finish, he did not open his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes turned cold, her lips suddenly raised into a smile: "What do you think?"


    Huang Tu laughed out loud, and his gaze landed on Jun Qingshang: "Looks like we misunderstood you, you can leave now!"


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and nodded at him. He knew that Jun Qingshang was not convinced, and was afraid that he would suddenly make a move against Feng Tu, so he immediately added, "The Emperor was just joking earlier, you shouldn''t take it too seriously."


    Yun Ruoleng''s protection of the Phoenix Diagram made Jun Qingshang feel as if he had been stabbed with a blade. He originally thought that finding her was equivalent to finding her heart and mind, and he originally wanted to tease her, but was instead humiliated like this.


    Jun Qingshang replied and retreated, his heart dripping with blood, the reason for his hatred became more and more obvious.


    Huang Tu waved away all the guards. His eyes shone a little compared to Yun Ruoleng''s black face, it could be said that he was taking pleasure in Yun Ruoleng''s misfortune.


    "What exactly do you mean?" Yun Ruoleng pushed the distance between him and the Phoenix Map aside and looked at him gloomily. The mansion was only so big, and the few courtyards were already there, so why would so many people come out?


    Since others believed it, she definitely wouldn''t believe it.


    "Such a big mansion, although you can''t go out, you can still hide in it for a few hours!" Huang Tu spread his hands and said with an innocent expression.


    Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "Then I really have to thank you, your highness, to not hesitate to send so many people out for me."


    "Do you feel my love for you?" Seeing Yun Ruoleng was so angry that his face turned green, he was in an extremely good mood.


    What? Yun Ruoleng opened his eyes wide, looking at the charming man in front of him as if he were a ghost.


    Huang Tu raised an eyebrow: "What, you don''t believe me?"


    "I do!" Yun Ruoleng laughed as if she didn''t believe him.


    Feng Tu did not make things difficult for her and he knew that she was putting on an act with him so he naturally had to cooperate. He raised his eyebrows: "Since you believe it, then I do not need to say anything more. Send the young lady back to her room! "


    Believe your head! Yun Ruoleng looked at Huang Tu with a fake smile, and only left with a reluctant look when the guards arrived. The smile on Phoenix Diagram''s face slowly dimmed. If he didn''t know that she had someone in her heart, he would think that she really liked him.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression did not look any better. Although it could not be considered gloomy, and could be said to be dark, the guards following him did not dare to step forward. Instead, they retreated a few steps, afraid of angering this woman who was with the emperor.


    "Miss, you''re finally back." Before he even entered the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, Zhu Lan, who was standing at the door, came over.


    Yun Ruoleng only coldly swept her a glance before he directly walked in. Zhu Lan opened his mouth, not knowing whether he should call her to stop. Before Zhu Lan could think about it clearly, Yun Ruoleng had already entered the courtyard.


    Zhu Lan sighed helplessly, and followed him in just in time to see Yun Ruoleng looking at the black-clothed man in the courtyard with a dark expression.


    "Miss, the Prince has sent them to protect you." Zhu Lan lowered his head, not daring to look straight into Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, as if he was afraid that she would take it out on him if he was unhappy.


    Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched a few times.


    Protect yourself? Those who did not understand would naturally think so, she did not think that this group of people was here to protect her, so what kind of tricks was Phoenix Diagram trying to pull?


    It couldn''t be blamed that Yun Ruoleng was being too cautious, but it was actually due to the way the Phoenix Diagram was acting recently that made it hard for people to fathom. Zhu Lan could clearly feel the cold air being emitted from Yun Ruoleng''s body nonstop, and he could not help but take a small step back, as he raised his head slightly to look at the group of black-robed and sabre guards.


    "Subordinate Liefeng brought the Raging Flames Squadron to protect the lady. Please forgive me for offending the lady." The black-robed man standing at the very front had a handsome appearance, but his words didn''t have the slightest hint of politeness in them at all.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered, "The Emperor didn''t tell you how to protect me?"

 C324

    "Protect him at all times, bring him here anytime ¡­"


    "So it''s monitoring!" Yun Ruoleng sneered again and again, he waved his hand, and said, "Forget it, aren''t you afraid that I will run away?"


    Zephyr did not continue speaking, he only cupped his hands and retreated to the side. The dozen of guards behind him took the initiative to divide into two rows, giving Yun Ruoleng a path that would allow him to enter the palace.


    Yun Ruoleng waved his sleeves and walked into the room. He felt an indescribable anger in his heart and when he returned to the house, the first thing he did was to grab a cup of tea and pour it into his stomach. He didn''t care whether the cup of tea was warm or cold and drank it all in one gulp.


    "Sigh!" "Young lady, that tea is cold, you can''t drink it ¡­" Zhu Lan stepped into the room. He wanted to stop her, but it was already too late.


    Yun Ruoleng threw the teacup that was left with half a cup onto the table with a "pa" sound. He turned his head and glared at Zhu Lan fiercely: "Who let you in?"


    "Eh ¡­" Zhu Lan''s footsteps paused, looking at Yun Ruoleng whose exquisite little face had turned black from dripping, his heart tightened, "I, I just want to make you some tea."


    Yun Ruoleng sneered, and turned to walk inside. Zhu Lan stood where he was and watched Yun Ruoleng''s figure disappear at the door before he heaved a sigh of relief. Today, the emperor had angered this lady, and the days in the courtyard were going to be difficult.


    Although she was angry, she did not lose her reason. She kept having the feeling that the eyes which she used to look at the Phoenix Diagram today seemed to know Jun Qingshang''s origins. With his heart tightened, Jun Qingshang was afraid that he was in danger.


    After Zhu Lan left, only Yun Ruoleng was left in the room. The person who was just about to throw the cup in anger peeked his head out from behind the screen just in time to see the row of black-clothed men at the door. He couldn''t help but frown slightly.


    With so many people guarding her, it would be difficult for her to walk out. Although the Phoenix Diagram did not stop her from leaving the Warm Phoenix Pavilion, the group of people that had stepped out of the pavilion would immediately follow her like their tails.


    The more Yun Ruoleng thought about it, the more agitated he became. He kept having the feeling that the Phoenix Diagram had been very weird recently, could it be that it was really as he thought, that he found out about Jun Qingshang''s true identity? But why not make it public?


    This matter confused Yun Ruoleng.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was considering whether he should go out and give it a try, he suddenly heard shouts from outside the door. There was a vague sound that resembled Han Qianqian''s, followed by the sound of whips hitting the ground, and the sound of weapons colliding. Yun Ruoleng opened the window with a slight crack, allowing him to see the situation outside clearly.


    Inside the Pleasant Phoenix Restaurant, there was a person who walked ten steps from the entrance all the way to the entrance. These people were not the number she had seen just now, meaning that there were some in the dark who could observe their surroundings at any time.


    At the door, Han Qianqian who was dressed in a white riding outfit was attacking the two guards with a long whip in his hand.


    The guard seemed to have a plan on her and easily dodged her whip, but he didn''t hurt her.


    The sounds of the battle were loud and they were far apart, so Yun Ruoleng could not hear what Han Qianqian was shouting about, but looking at her flushed face, it should not be hard to guess that she was not convinced of what she had done.


    "Zhu Lan!" Yun Ruoleng slowly pulled himself back onto the soft couch and sat down, holding onto a book as he slowly flipped through it.


    Hearing the voice from inside, Zhu Lan quietly walked in and bowed to Yun Ruoleng: "What orders does Miss have?"


    "What''s the situation outside?" Yun Ruoleng casually flipped through the book, not even sparing a glance at it.


    Zhu Lan turned his head to look, although he could not see, he could clearly hear the power of the whip, and immediately replied: "Miss Han seems to be tired of dancing."


    "Then please have a cup of tea!" Yun Ruoleng closed the book in his hand and gently placed it beside him. The corner of his mouth slightly raised, his eyes were pitch black, and he looked clear enough to see the bottom.


    Zhu Lan looked at Yun Ruoleng hesitantly: "Are you sure, miss?"


    "The guest is our guest." Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, then chuckled, "Since I can''t go out, then let the person who delivered himself to us have a chat with me."


    "Young ¡­ young lady, are you ¡­"


    "If I tell you to go, then go!" Yun Ruoleng suddenly interrupted Zhu Lan and her gaze became gloomy.


    Zhu Lan took in a deep breath. Her gaze was like a suction cup, trying to suck in her soul. Zhu Lan did not dare to look straight into Yun Ruoleng''s eyes, and quickly replied and left the room.


    The battle outside was nearing its end. Han Qianqian swung his whip and stood outside the doorstep, pointing angrily at the Phoenix Warm Pavilion as he said, "What''s so great about that? Wasn''t it all because of her beauty? "A fox spirit that only knows how to seduce men, get out here right now!"


    Since Han Qianqian stopped fighting, none of them dared to make things difficult for her. After all, she was the only daughter of the Great General, who would actually dare to offend her? Although the guards didn''t attack her, they were still on guard against her, afraid that she would take advantage of them and injure the person inside.


    "How dare you!" Zhu Lan never thought that a lady from a noble family would scold him like that. It was as if he was a shrew scolding the streets, with no trace of his demeanor.


    Seeing that Yun Ruoleng''s personal servant had come out, Han Qianqian was immediately excited. "Who do you think you are! You dare to challenge me? "


    After saying that, he whipped towards Zhu Lan, who was caught off guard. It was already too late for him to dodge, so he could only use his arm to receive the whip. Han Qianqian whipped his hand once again, the guards reacted, first two of them, then three of them joined in the battle to block the whip for Zhu Lan.


    The second round of battles began once again. Zhu Lan was simply too late to say anything, the guards had already restrained them, and Zhu Lan was currently holding onto his arm, looking at Han Qianqian with a complicated expression.


    It was no wonder that the Emperor didn''t like her. If she returned to the palace, the imperial harem would no longer be at peace.


    Zhu Lan stood where she was and watched the battle without the slightest fear. On the contrary, she watched the battle with relish, as if she was trying to figure out something.


    It was difficult for her to fight against four hands with one punch. No matter how good Han Qianqian''s skill was, if he met with the members of the Raging Flames Team, he would not be able to win immediately.


    "You all ¡­" Han Qianqian whipped his hand, and looked at the people from the Flame Artillery Squadron coldly, "Get out of my way!"


    "After you, Miss Han." Zhu Lan turned to the side, and then opened up a path, "Young lady, please."


    Han Qianqian''s almond-shaped eyes widened. "Why did you say it now?"


    "When Miss Han saw this servant, she always shouted for him to be killed. This servant didn''t have the chance to speak and even received a whip from the Young Miss. My arm hurt and I forgot about it." Zhu Lan said unhurriedly, while the rest of the members of the Raging Flame Clan all lowered their heads, a smile on their lips.


    No one expected Zhu Lan to be so eloquent, to be able to make a clean mistake with a few words.

 C325

    "You ¡­" Han Qianqian pointed angrily at Zhu Lan, only to see her bowing and kneeling down. She did not know where to release her anger, and waved her sleeves, "Lead the way!"


    Zhu Lan walked on the right side of Han Qianqian, lowered his head, and honestly led the way for Han Qianqian. In his hand was a long whip, and behind him was a servant girl wearing the attire of a servant girl.


    At the door to Yun Ruoleng''s room, Zhu Lan lightly knocked on the door: "Miss, Miss Han has arrived."


    "Let her in!" Yun Ruoleng''s gentle voice came from inside the room. Zhu Lan casually opened the door and saw a woman dressed in a light blue apricot dress sitting in front of a round table that was carved with wood.


    Her delicate face carried a light smile, but that smile did not reach her eyes. A cold aura shot out from her eyes and landed directly on Han Qianqian''s body: "You were looking for me?"


    "I heard that you''re going to be a queen! Let me see what the future Queen is like! " Han Qianqian''s arms were folded across his chest, his eyes were filled with jealousy, his almond eyes were unsatisfied and bloodshot, as though he was going to pounce on Yun Ruoleng and strangle him to death in the next second.


    Yun Ruoleng took a good look at her expression, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "Then many thanks for Miss Han''s concern, I just wonder if young miss is satisfied."


    "Satisfied?" The silver whip in Han Qianqian''s hand flew out in an instant, and struck a piece of good quality Pear Blossom Tree, causing wood shavings to fly into the air. Yun Ruoleng frowned, and activated a faint burst of power from his body, repelling all of the wood shavings that came into contact with him.


    Zhu Lan quickly blocked in front of Yun Ruoleng: "Miss Han, you have guts! You actually want to murder the future Queen! "


    Han Qianqian''s body shivered, he stared at the woman hiding behind Zhu Lan with a venomous glare, laughing as she provoked him: "Bitch! What kind of demonic technique did you use!? for the Emperor to be so infatuated with you? "


    "Demonic arts?" Yun Ruoleng pulled Zhu Lan who was in front of him behind him, and looked at Han Qianqian with a smile that was not a smile, "I don''t know any demonic techniques, but I do know some witchcraft."


    At this time, she didn''t have to hide anything anymore. Adding to the fact that Han Qianqian seemed to be very familiar with the Phoenix Diagram, she might even reveal something if she were to say this.


    As Yun Ruoleng expected, Han Qianqian was startled at first, but then laughed out loud: "So it''s a Magus! The Magi who were able to receive such treatment were at a high level, and their talents were not shallow! You should be the pure witch that the Emperor will find. That''s great, Little Princess Huang Nian will be saved. "Hahaha ¡­"


    Han Qianqian looked at Yun Ruoleng as if he was looking at a dead man, he did not seem angry at all, but had turned into the dream of a lowly person.


    Zhu Lan stood behind Yun Ruoleng and frowned. He wanted to speak up and interrupt her, but he didn''t know how. They could only stand behind Yun Ruoleng and worry.


    Yun Ruoleng raised his brows, "Looking at you, am I going to die?"


    "Of course!" Han Qianqian''s smile looked extremely creepy, "Let me tell you, even if Your Majesty likes you, he still won''t give up the chance to save the Little Princess. This is because the Little Princess is the only hope of the Emperor. Why should I tell you this? "


    Han Qianqian seemed to have realized something as he glared at Yun Ruoleng in anger, "You''re lying to me!"


    "You''re not the only one who knows about Phoenix Savior Painting, how can you talk nonsense?" Yun Ruoleng put the bracelet back on, and laughed, "Since you have already seen the joke, you can leave now!"


    "Aren''t you curious what the Little Princess said?" Han Qianqian was suspicious this time. Normal people would know that he was being used, and when they die, they would wish to know the truth, but this person seemed to be different?


    Yun Ruoleng stood up and glanced at the carved wooden table that was split into two halves: "If you were to say it earlier, and I ask so much, I don''t think you would know how to say it!"


    "You ¡­" Han Qianqian''s face became ugly. Just now, she stopped because she wanted her to beg him, to let him say it, so that he could see her despicable scene, but Yun Ruoleng did not have the intention to request her to say it. Instead, he had the attitude of ''don''t say it if you want to, don''t say it'', and instead made Han Qianqian at a loss of what to do.


    Yun Ruoleng walked into the room. He stood at the same place and looked at Han Qianqian, frowning slightly: "Miss Han, you should be careful with your words. If Your Majesty finds out ¡­ Miss knows. "


    Han Qianqian''s body trembled, the expression on his face was extremely strange, his heart was even more so flustered. Only now did he know the lingering fear, and his heart was filled with regret.


    Zhu Lan did not even spare her a glance as he nodded towards the Strong Gale who was standing outside and followed Yun Ruoleng into the room. Yun Ruoleng sat on the soft couch and continued to play with the bracelet, but this time, he seemed to be lost in thought as he leaned on the soft couch, and did not notice Zhu Lan enter at all.


    "Young lady, don''t let your imagination run wild. Miss Han has always had a mouth without a barrier, so she doesn''t know what to say." After Zhu Lan entered the room, he reached out his hands to test the temperature of the teacup for Yun Ruoleng and explained softly.


    Yun Ruoleng narrowed her phoenix eyes, her gaze falling on Zhu Lan''s arm, which still had traces of blood on it. "Alright, go and wash your wounds!"


    "Yes." Zhu Lan took away the teacup on the table. He did not see Yun Ruoleng''s expression that instantly turned cold.


    Han Qianqian''s mouth was open, which also meant that what the woman said was the truth. If he wanted to protect his life, then it would depend on what words she had left for the Phoenix Diagram.


    Yun Ruoleng being uncurious was a lie, because this news was related to her life, how could she not be curious?


    Looking at Zhu Lan''s expression, it was impossible to say it, so the only thing he could do was to make a move against Han Qianqian.


    And in the palace''s guard camp, Jun Qingshang sat on a rock and held onto a piece of paper that was the size of a thumb.


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly as he looked at the Phoenix Diagram.


    However, at this time ¡­ As Jun Qingshang was sitting on the rock, he felt someone approaching and immediately grabbed the slip of paper in his hand.


    "What are you daydreaming about?" A guard appeared from behind him and hooked his shoulder in a friendly manner.


    A guard appeared from the other side. "You can''t have fallen for that woman from the Warm Phoenix Pavilion, right?"


    "Don''t speak nonsense!" Jun Qingshang glared at the guard behind him with feigned anger. "That''s the emperor''s queen!"


    "But, I heard that she is someone from the Heaven''s Awakening. You say that our emperor is also strange. He clearly said that he wants to be irreconcilable with the Heaven''s Awakening, but in the end, in the end, he actually likes the Heaven''s Awakening woman."

 C326

    "Don''t talk about master in private!" The first guard hastily whispered snappily, "Do you want to die? You dare to talk about the emperor?"


    The guard smiled in embarrassment and waved his hand. Then, he left first. Soon, the first guard also left.


    After the person left, Jun Qingshang''s eyes suddenly burst with killing intent: Phoenix Diagram, grudge against wife, I will definitely repay you.


    Jun Qingshang stood up from the rock and walked towards the forest not far away. His movements were so fast that even if anyone wanted to chase after him, they would not have the chance.


    "Master ¡­"


    A shadow flashed out from the forest, and knelt down respectfully. This was none other than Jun Qingshang''s bodyguard, An Ying!


    "Send down the order, attack tomorrow!" "Follow the cleaning plan." Jun Qingshang paused, "Has the mansion been properly arranged?"


    "Everything has been prepared, we only have to wait for Your Highness'' order."


    Jun Qingshang nodded his head in satisfaction and waved his hand, signalling for him to leave. He disappeared into the forest in a flash. Compared to Yun Ruoleng''s teleportation, Jun Qingshang''s Qing Gong had already been trained to the point of perfection.


    Just as Huang Tu finished dealing with the big affairs of the military plane, he heard that Han Qianqian had gone to the Phoenix Warm Pavilion to cause trouble. Even though he was chased out by Yun Ruoleng, Zhu Lan was still injured, which made Huang Tu''s heart tighten and his expression turn ugly.


    "Mistress, Marshal Han is here." Just as Phoenix Diagram was about to go see Yun Ruoleng, Han Mo came at the right time. The originally angry Phoenix Diagram looked at Han Mo with an even uglier expression.


    "This subject participates in Your Majesty''s ¡­"


    Looking at Han Mo, Phoenix Diagram thought of Han Qianqian who lived in the backyard, and kicked Han Mo. "How dare you! Your daughter actually disturbed the peace in the backyard and frightened the future empress! "


    "This official is guilty!" Han Mo lowered his head, his respectful appearance had slightly eased the anger in Phoenix Diagram''s heart.


    "It''s good that you know you''re guilty!" "Your precious daughter, we do not dare to accept her. You should take her back and raise her properly!"


    Not to mention the woman that was sent to the imperial harem, even if they did, no one would dare to ask for the woman that the emperor despised!


    Han Mo was immediately shocked. "Your Majesty, you can''t! This will ruin my daughter''s life. "


    Even though he was a hundred times dissatisfied with Han Qianqian, he still loved and respected this Duke of Humerus. He knew what would happen to the woman after she was sent back to him, to the point that Feng Tu frowned: "She has an extremely wild personality, I am indeed unable to tame her. She would even dare to shout and kill in this mansion. "Since the empress can protect herself, the rest of the palace may not be so, so I will choose a marriage for her. Does marshal think this is good?"


    "Thank you, my lord, for your grace ¡­" Han Mo broke out into a cold sweat for his daughter. Thankfully, she wasn''t forcefully sent home. Otherwise, he wouldn''t be able to keep his old face any longer.


    "General Han, please rise." Phoenix Diagram stooped down and helped Han Mo up, but Han Mo did not notice the cold look that flashed past his eyes.


    Han Mo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and slowly stood up. "Thank you, your majesty."


    "Did General Han come for something?" The corners of Huang Tidemark''s mouth curled up, as if he couldn''t tell that Han Mo had come to see him in a hurry.


    Han Mo then recalled something and quickly said, "Your majesty, outside of the border pass, Heaven''s Awakening has already begun preparations. I''m afraid there will be an inevitable war tomorrow."


    "Is that so?" Huang Tu narrowed his eyes, and his expression darkened: "It seems that some people are still unable to endure."


    "Then this official ¡­"


    "It''s not certain who will win this battle!" Others should be prepared, but the old method of guarding the city gate tower is not a simple one. " A demonic smile appeared on Phoenix Diagram''s face, "Think of a good way, report after you''ve thought of it!"


    Han Mo suspiciously looked at Phoenix Diagram and muttered in his heart: "Is this a battle or not?"


    Seeing that he had not left, Huang Tu frowned: "Why are you not leaving yet?"


    "That ¡­" Han Mo shrank back his neck. "Your majesty, should we fight this or not?"


    "Are you the marshal or am I the marshal?" Huang Tu said snappily: "If you can''t even make this kind of decision, then you might as well let go of the heavy responsibility you have."


    "This subject knows what to do!" Han Mo was not an idiot, the moment he saw the Phoenix Diagram he knew that he was truly angry and cupped his hands. "This subject will take his leave!"


    "Humph!" Furthermore, due to his mistake in defending the city, the trust in him grew less and less. After seeing him leave, Huang Tu immediately said to Yu Yang who was standing not far away: "Go and monitor the army! This time, we cannot afford to lose the city! "


    "Yes sir!" The Phoenix Diagram trusted in Yang Yang''s abilities. In his heart, Yu Yang had never failed at anything before.


    After Yu Yang left, Feng Tu walked towards the Feng Wai Pavilion.


    After Yun Ruoleng released his Qi, his mood became a lot better. He had wanted to read a few books and start training when the Phoenix Map appeared. When she heard Zhu Lan''s joyful announcement, her face immediately turned black.


    "What is he doing here?" Every time the Phoenix Diagram came here, it would definitely not be a good thing! Yun Ruoleng silently thought in his heart, how great it would be if he could never see him again in this life!


    However, destiny was always like that. It wasn''t something one would see often, but rather something one would see at any time. As long as one met with the other, one would definitely meet it.


    "His Majesty came to see if he was injured." Zhu Lan bit her lips lightly, feeling that her master was not worthy to waste her energy on such a person who did not know what was good for her.


    "Tell him he''s not dead!" Yun Ruoleng casually waved his hand and then sat on the soft couch to meditate.


    Seeing this, Zhu Lan silently felt that his master was not worth it, but he still had to report it. Seeing Zhu Lan''s troubled expression, Huang Tu knew that Yun Ruoleng was still angry, so he did not force his way in. He quietly looked at the raging flames team around him, and nodded in satisfaction.


    After the Phoenix Diagram left, Yun Ruoleng''s mood really wasn''t very good. He leaned on the soft couch, completely not in the mood to cultivate. After Zhu Lan sent away the Phoenix Map, he returned to Yun Ruoleng''s side and respectfully blessed him: "Miss, the Emperor has left."


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled. "Got it!"


    Huang Tu left, I hope he doesn''t come again in the future.


    Zhu Lan lowered his head, seeing that Yun Ruoleng did not have anything else to say, he glanced at Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly: "Why aren''t you leaving?"


    "Your servant ¡­" Zhu Lan looked at Yun Ruoleng, seemingly wanting to say something, but stopped in his tracks. However, Yun Ruoleng did not even give her a single glance, so much that he was too lazy to even look at her.


    Zhu Lan was a little powerless, and sighed as he left the room.

 C327

    In the Heaven''s Enlightenment Army''s camp, after An Ying sent back his message, Yang Xiong had already started sending troops to prepare. However, because he did not have a backbone, Yang Xiong did not know what to do for a moment. After looking for the generals and discussing with them, he forcefully pulled An Ying and did not allow him to leave.


    "Marshal, you ¡­" An Ying could not help but smile bitterly at Yang Xiong, who was tugging at him, "Even if you are this way, this subordinate won''t be able to help you in any way?"


    "Where is the prince?" Yang Xiong glared at An Ying and said.


    An Ying shook his head: "This subordinate does not know."


    As Jun Qingshang''s commander of the An Ying Guards, he actually said the word "don''t know", if Yang Xiong believed him, he wouldn''t be sitting in the position of Grand Marshal. An Ying was being pulled tighter onto him, and realised that it was fine if he did not speak, but once he opened his mouth, he opened his mouth even tighter.


    "Do you think This Field Marshal is a fool? If you run over here and spread the word, do you know where the Prince is? " Yang Xiong slapped An Ying on the head, and said snappily: "I know that your highness has given the order to keep my mouth shut! But this Field Marshal also wants to know if he is safe? "


    "Your highness is very safe ¡­" An Ying suddenly realised that she had admitted defeat and immediately shut her mouth.


    Yang Xiong Hu''s eyes were wide opened, as if he was going to tear An Ying apart. An Ying retracted his neck, feeling that these eyes were so seeping?


    It was true that Jun Qingshang had given the order to not reveal where Jun Qingshang was going, but as Jun Qingshang''s uncle, Yang Xiong, he knew where Jun Qingshang had gone to even if he didn''t say it.


    On the other hand, Yang Xiong did not make things difficult for An Ying.


    An Ying heaved a sigh of relief, patted his chest and walked out of the military camp. The reason Jun Qingshang allowed him to come back was not just to spread the word, more importantly, it was to lead the people from the An Ying Guards to assist him.


    An Ying Guards were all equipped with unique skills, and could bring their own troops on the battlefield. Although they were An Ying Guards with Regent¡¯s Mansion, they were indeed valiant generals on the battlefield. Even the late emperor couldn''t stop praising this point.


    In order to ensure the safety of his master, An Ying did not mobilize anyone to protect him. Instead, he called An Yue, who had an even higher level of skill, over when he returned. An Yue was not willing to do anything to begin with, and he did not know what An Ying had told him before he leisurely left the camp.


    "Stinking brat, don''t you know where the prince has run off to?" Just as An Yue left, Yang Xiong brought his personal guards over. His eyes were about to pop out of his head, and his beard was sticking out from the corner of his mouth. From the looks of it, he was quite infuriated.


    "An Ying Wei has his own responsibilities. Please do not hinder us, Grand Marshal!" An Ying''s face did not look too good, as though she was dissatisfied with him eavesdropping on her conversation with An Yue.


    Yang Xiong coldly snorted, "Your Highness should be staying in the army camp. If you run out of here, what will happen to you? Besides, This Field Marshal was passing by here and heard it unintentionally. "


    An Ying didn''t know if it was unintentional or not, but if he was caught red-handed, it would be hard to explain.


    An Ying frowned in distress, "Marshal, why do you need to make things difficult for this subordinate?"


    Don''t know what Yang Xiong was thinking, but after hearing An Ying''s words, he became even more agitated: "Don''t be careless! "Speak!"


    "I can''t say ¡­" An Ying firmly shook his head, he did not care whether Yang Xiong would be angry or not, and turned to leave.


    "Sigh!" "You ¡­" The expression on his face changed again and again as he stared at the figure of Yang Xiong''s departing back in disbelief. An Ying Guard only listened to the Regent King''s orders, it would be useless even if he asked for more questions.


    Although Yang Xiong was worried in his heart, he did not continue asking. He knew that asking any more questions would be futile.


    It had to be said that this was a wise decision, but it had to be said that he was smart. An Ying''s heart was very complicated right now, he didn''t even have time to dodge Yang Xiong.


    had not seen the Phoenix Diagram, and the Phoenix Diagram did not forcefully stay behind either. It was just that the guards outside seemed to be a lot fewer. Yun Ruoleng sat in front of the window and looked at the scenery outside, his mind quickly thinking of where these people were hiding.


    He didn''t know if it was because these people had good foundations, but he couldn''t see where they were hiding. Yun Ruoleng was not in a hurry either. With his eyes closed, a golden halo flashed around him, instantly diffused in all directions, and swept through the entire Phoenix Warm Pavilion like a scanner. Scattered black spots appeared in his mind.


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth rose: Didn''t I already find it?


    The feeling of the ring of light scanning passed by. Normal people wouldn''t be able to feel it, so the Flame Artillery Squadron outside didn''t know about this.


    "Dong Dong Dong ¡­" A few continuous knocks on the door interrupted Yun Ruoleng''s plan to continue scanning. He suddenly opened his eyes and berated sternly: "Didn''t I say that you''re not allowed to disturb me?!"


    The knocking on the door clearly stopped for a moment, followed by the sound of footsteps.


    This voice sounded familiar, Yun Ruoleng could tell who the person was but he did not say a word. However, someone who should have left suddenly opened his mouth and said, "This servant is here on the orders of the emperor to deliver the hairpin. I wonder if this lady can let this servant in?"


    The voice was a little unfamiliar. Yun Ruoleng frowned: "Bring it in!"


    He came in, but according to Yun Ruoleng''s temper, would he choose any kind of hairpin? It was obviously impossible. Yun Ruoleng watched as the door to his room was pushed open. A woman in her thirties slowly walked in with a red lacquer tray in her hands. Behind her were two maids dressed in light green dress who were also holding red lacquer trays.


    The three of them came in and bowed politely, and then handed the tray over to Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng took a look, and discovered that they had presented three sets of exquisite jewelry. One was inlaid with gold, it looked extremely grand and dignified, the other was inlaid with gold with white jade, it was dignified and elegant, a pure gold phoenix crown with nine heads, each phoenix had a string of tassels in its mouth, the phoenix eyes were made up of eighteen red corals, looking extremely exquisite and beautiful.


    "What a beautiful phoenix crown." Yun Ruoleng didn''t like to brag about things, but he had no choice but to praise. The carving technique of this phoenix crown was extremely exquisite, and was not something ordinary things could compare to.


    "Does this girl like it?" Seeing Yun Ruoleng lost in thought while looking at the phoenix crown, the woman immediately smiled and said, "This is the phoenix crown of our Yue Ling, only the Empress can wear it."


    Yun Ruoleng only pursed his lips slightly. This thing had no meaning to her, the position of Empress was something that had suddenly occurred to her, if he really wanted her as his concubine, it would be even more difficult than taking her life. After all, no man in this era was willing to marry a woman as his wife, let alone a phoenix.


    "Leave it!" Yun Ruoleng had only taken a glance, yet there wasn''t the slightest bit of happiness on his face.

 C328

    The woman held onto the tray, her face full of smiles, and after looking at Yun Ruoleng for a while, seeing that she really did not intend to take a look, she placed the tray beside her on a small stool and left.


    It had to be said that the phoenix coronet was exquisite, but Yun Ruoleng felt extremely disdainful. This object looked exquisite, but was actually not that useful. He merely wanted to use his own name to insult Jun Qingshang.


    Thinking about Jun Qingshang, Yun Ruoleng''s brows knitted, there were so many secret guards in the courtyard, every single one of them were staring at him, it would not be easy for Jun Qingshang to come here. Thinking about it, Yun Ruoleng started to worry, afraid that Jun Qingshang would barge in without knowing, and it would not be a good thing.


    "They sent the items over?" Phoenix Diagram stood by the window and could clearly see the scenery outside. Behind him, there was a rustling sound and without even turning his head, Phoenix Diagram asked.


    The woman who sent the phoenix crown just now knelt respectfully on the ground. "The young lady didn''t seem happy when she saw the phoenix crown. On the contrary, she frowned."


    "Understood, you may leave." If only she was comfortable in her heart.


    When he thought about how she still could not forget about Jun Qingshang, Phoenix Diagram''s heart inexplicably panicked.


    No one bothered him for the rest of the day. It was a peaceful and quiet day.


    The next day, Yun Ruoleng woke up early like usual and started cultivating. Just as he opened the door, he saw an uninvited guest.


    "Let''s talk ¡­"


    "Phoenix Diagram, what is there to talk about with me?" Yun Ruoleng pushed away the Phoenix Diagram in front of him, his face still revealing the expression of a stranger.


    "I think we have a lot to talk about." Huang Tu turned around and said to Yun Ruoleng: "You still won''t forget that heartless person?"


    "It has nothing to do with you!" Yun Ruoleng said as his footsteps paused, "Don''t pity me! It''s all thanks to you! "


    The words of Huang Tu choked in his throat, ''no more''. His gaze landed on the back of Yun Ruoleng as he left, and his expression became much colder, the jealousy in his heart burning hotter.


    Yun Ruoleng''s morning training was done in the manor''s garden, so it was no exception today. The only exception was that, due to the originally happy morning, he did not expect to meet the Phoenix Diagram, causing his mood to change drastically.


    "Have you heard?"


    "Heard what?"


    "Our future Queen, she is a rare beauty! "It''s a pity that he''s someone from the Heavenly Awakening Realm."


    "Not only that!"


    When Yun Ruoleng went to the side of the fake mountain in a garden with a restless mood, he just happened to hear a conversation coming from behind the mountain. He was curious, so he stood still and listened seriously.


    "It is said that that woman is the imperial concubine of the regent of Heaven''s Enlightenment. Our emperor doesn''t know what he has taken a fancy to, and he will definitely marry her. She still had a reluctant look on her face. Yesterday, Manager Lu sent her the phoenix crown so that she could have a look. In the end, she acted as if she didn''t care.


    "Your Majesty has taken a fancy to her!"


    "Does Sister Yu know anything about His Majesty?" Quickly tell me why His Majesty kept that woman? "


    "It''s all because she''s the Little Princess'' medicine guide."


    "Medicine?" The maidservants'' voices were filled with doubt.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly. Even though she had already known about the matter of her being attracted by the medicine, she did not know why the Phoenix Diagram insisted on reviving the Phoenix.


    "Ten years ago, when the Little Princess, Huang Xuan, said that she was the purest person in the world besides Senior Magi, and that she had great talent, she was thought to be the next Senior Magus." Ten years ago, when the Little Princess, Huang Si, said that she was the purest person in the world, other than Senior Magi, and that she had great talent, everyone thought that she would be the next Senior Magus.


    "What word?" After saying all that, Yun Ruoleng also became curious. What was it that made the almighty Phoenix Diagram willing to sacrifice the entirety of the world just to save Phoenix Remembrance? He would rather live the life of an ancient scolded person to revive the Phoenix''s Will?


    "I want to ¡­" The woman''s voice was very soft, but the surrounding people held their breath as if they wanted to hear what she had to say. However, the woman''s voice suddenly stopped.


    "Sister Yu, what are you thinking about?" Another woman said anxiously, "Don''t keep us guessing."


    "Ugh ¡­" Little Princess just said the word ''I want''. " The woman named Sister Yu could not help but smile bitterly. She gestured at the crowd and said, "Although this is not a secret in the palace, the emperor has ordered us not to speak of it. You all know the consequences."


    Hiding behind the fake mountain, Yun Ruoleng said with a gloomy face, "I think ¡­"


    What exactly did Phoenix Cry want? What do you want to do? If the two nations no longer fought, then Phoenix Remembrance would be the best way to break through.


    In order to not be discovered, Yun Ruoleng teleported back several tens of meters, then leisurely walked to the side of the flower bed and pretended to admire the flowers on the side of the road.


    The people behind the fake mountain seemed to have finished chatting, as they walked out one after another from behind the mountain. All of them looked at Yun Ruoleng who was standing by the side of the garden with astonishment, and bowed, "Miss."


    Yun Ruoleng nodded and did not say a word. She was already quietly looking at the biggest peony in the flower bed, no one knew what she was thinking about. The maidservants didn''t have much interest in her, but they still did their best on the surface. After greeting her, they left.


    Yun Ruoleng stretched out her jade hand and ruthlessly broke that beautiful peony flower, then placed it in her hand for a long time as she carefully examined it. "If you still don''t come out, don''t blame me for being ruthless!"


    "My detection ability is still quite poor!" A man dressed as a bodyguard walked out from behind the eucalyptus tree beside the flower garden. His unfamiliar face made Yun Ruoleng''s lips rise slightly: "I heard that the two countries are going to war again today, aren''t you going?"


    "Without me, Heaven''s Initiation can still defeat Yue Ling. What''s lacking is just a matter of time." Jun Qingshang was always so confident when it came to doing things. That pair of scorching beautiful eyes s was something Yun Ruoleng could not avoid. "Did you hear it just now?"


    "Didn''t you hear it too?" Yun Ruoleng didn''t open her eyes as she kept warning herself not to be confused by his gaze. However, there were some things that she still couldn''t control.


    He did not know what Jun Qingshang was thinking, but he suddenly took a step forward. As his body neared, it made Yun Ruoleng''s heart panic.


    A pair of watery eyes constantly avoided her, and her little face was pink, making her appear exceptionally alluring. However, some people didn''t give him the time to admire them. A cold shout came from behind him.


    "Little Four, what are you doing?"


    Jun Qingshang''s brows slightly knitted, as she was extremely dissatisfied with the person behind her. Only then did Yun Ruoleng heave a sigh of relief, and unhappily glared at him. In this broad daylight, it would be a mistake for her to stand together with him! He was not afraid of the Phoenix Diagram seeing him.

 C329

    "The captain of the guards really did his duty well!" Yun Ruoleng said unhurriedly: "Will you follow me wherever I go?"


    Jun Qingshang''s lips curled up as he slowly retreated to the side. The words that came out of her mouth saying that she would not care if he died or live was true danger, but she had turned into someone who protected her like a little calf. Although he did not like hiding behind a woman, it was still a happy thing to have a woman who could fight alongside him.


    The Guard Captain was extremely embarrassed by Yun Ruoleng''s questions. Actually, he did not want to circle around her everyday, but since the orders were given, how could he, a Guard Captain, dare to disobey them!


    "What are you crying for?" The aura around Yun Ruoleng suddenly became stronger, and a burst of anger started to rise: "If I pick a flower, I''ll be stopped by people. If I walk, I''ll also be stopped by people.


    "Miss, it''s a misunderstanding!" The guard captain felt cold sweat dripping down his forehead as the smile on his face froze. "Peony is beautiful, but its branches will inevitably dirty your hands. This servant is also doing this for your own good ¡­"


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng coldly glanced at the ''servant'' beside him. Since you''re afraid that I will dirty my hands, then help me pick all the flowers here.


    "Alright!" Jun Qingshang gave her a doting look.


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at him proudly.


    Only now did the guard captain let out a sigh of relief. However, before he could even relax, Yun Ruoleng''s voice once again rang out, becoming colder than before, "Since you all like it, then let''s run ten laps around the manor!"


    Ten laps? The guards looked at each other in dismay. The mansion wasn''t small, but it wasn''t! Normally, it would take an hour for a person to run a circle by himself. These ten laps ¡­


    "Miss, please spare us!"


    "Young lady, you are beautiful and kind. We are also following orders. "


    "That''s right, that''s right!"


    "Fifteen laps!" Yun Ruoleng did not spare them, to them, Yun Ruoleng did not put much thought into it, furthermore, running fifteen laps would not tire them out.


    Jun Qingshang, who was standing at the side, could not help but take another look at Yun Ruoleng, and felt that she had changed a little. The captain was shocked, he didn''t dare to say anything more and led his team to start running. Jun Qingshang looked at the crowd that was running far away and could not help but chuckle.


    "¡­"


    "What are you looking at? I know you!" Yun Ruoleng glared at Jun Qingshang angrily, thinking, this guy''s ten fingers were not even touched by the Yang Spring Water, picking flowers was not an easy thing to do.


    Jun Qingshang looked at the flowers in the flower bed, then looked at Yun Ruoleng: "Look, even if I pick you, it''s useless. Why don''t I leave it for you to look at anytime ¡­"


    "I say, what''s the matter with you? Don''t you know that my words are orders? " Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes and roared.


    Jun Qingshang frowned, feeling that she was being unreasonable, coldly snorted, and began picking the flowers.


    Yun Ruoleng had her arms folded across her chest, proudly standing behind him, her gaze occasionally looking at the eucalypse tree at the side: "Jun Qingshang, did you notice that someone was watching us?"


    "He''s not stupid!" Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng used sound transmissions to quickly communicate with each other.


    Yun Ruoleng rolled her eyes at him in annoyance, and left with haughty and spoiled steps. As she was about to take him away, she said loudly: "Pick all the flowers in this flowerbed! "Not a single one remains!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang watched her arrogantly leave with a head full of black lines, and silently sighed in his heart.


    The moment Yun Ruoleng left, the person who was hiding in the shadows walked out. He glanced at Jun Qingshang who was picking the flowers with a sunken gaze, and the corner of his mouth revealed a disdainful smile. Coincidentally, no one noticed his actions, so they left.


    Honestly, did no one notice his actions? Of course not. Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang had already known about his arrival, so they intentionally acted out this scene.


    When Huang Tu returned to the study room, he sent people to continue monitoring Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng. He felt that there was something between the two of them, but he couldn''t figure it out.


    Yun Ruoleng paid attention to the movements as she walked. It was not that she did not notice the people following behind her, she had no choice but to endure in order not to alert the others.


    The border area was currently in a state of turmoil. Ever since Jun Qingshang gave the order to attack the city, there would occasionally be a small disturbance.


    "Marshal, why didn''t you attack the city?" In the Heavenly Awakening Camp, a black-bearded Great General angrily shouted.


    Yang Xiong sat at the head and only smiled, "Because the time is not up yet."


    The time was not up yet? The black-bearded general looked at Yang Xiong, who was about to go into suspense, and said, "I, Old Black, am a straightforward person. I don''t understand why you say it in such a refined manner!"


    Yang Xiong seemed to like this black general a lot, he stroked his beard and laughed loudly: "Because this city has their pillar, His Majesty the Emperor of Yue Ling, so this city is easy to defend and hard to attack. If we spend all our energy on attacking the city, then we will be tricked by the enemies!"


    When the black general heard this, he scratched his head. "Hehe, your subordinate is stupid."


    Yang Xiong didn''t blame him for the simple and honest look on his face. He only looked at the battle map on the table with an unprecedented look of concentration. "But this isn''t a protracted battle!"


    "Then let''s attack the city! At most, we''ll just die trying! " A thin general beside the black general said in indignation.


    However, he was met with a supercilious look: "Idiot!"


    "¡­" The thin general wanted to say something, but was stopped by another general at the side.


    Yang Xiong took a good look at their expressions, "Your highness has been gone for quite some time, our strategy is to wait!"


    Although many people revealed unwilling thoughts, they had no choice but to do so. Even if Jun Qingshang ordered an attack on the city, they did not dare to attack.


    "Marshal, the herdsmen in the north are still prepared. If we didn''t attack the city earlier, I''m afraid we would have attacked from both sides. When that happens, we''ll be in a passive position." Yang Xiong''s eldest son Yang Zhen couldn''t help but remind him.


    Yang Zhen could be considered the leader of the younger generation. He had made many meritorious deeds in this battle, and everyone''s evaluation of this young general was: "He emerged victorious in his youth, but he emerged victorious in his youth."


    Hearing Yang Zhen''s words, everyone fell into deep thought. They thought that the King had given the order to end the battle quickly so that the Northern barbarians wouldn''t gather together. As the words came out of his mouth, Yang Xiong forcefully choked back and fiercely glared at Yang Zhen.


    Yang Zhen was confused by his stare. His pupils slightly dilated and he no longer spoke. Yang Xiong lightly coughed, "This marshal has reported this matter to His Highness. His Royal Highness said that he would return at the end of the month. Everyone, please bear with it!"


    Yang Xiong''s words were difficult to convince the crowd. As a marshal, his hasty decision to become a marshal would only make the warriors dissatisfied, and his opinion of Jun Qingshang had grown deeper and deeper.

    "Father, why ¡­"


    After the meeting ended, Yang Xiong and Yang Zhen did not leave. After everyone left, Yang Zhen could no longer resist and spoke up.


    "The prince''s secret letter is for me to drag it out." Yang Xiong interrupted Yang Zhen''s words, and sighed helplessly: "I don''t know what happened to you at Yue Ling, but you still haven''t come back."


    "Then ¡­" Yang Zhen hesitated for a while before saying, "The end of the month, will the Prince come back?"


    Can you come back? Yang Xiong shook his head, he felt that it was not possible, and at this moment, he was already regretting handing over the letter to Yue Ling. If not for that letter, then Regent Jun Qingshang and Regent Wangfei would have taken down the entire Yue Ling with their hands together!


    Looking at his father''s regretful expression, Yang Zhen instantly felt that he had aged a lot, and there were a few more strands of white hair on his head. He wasn''t sure if it was just an illusion, but he felt like his father had aged a lot in this battle.


    Inside the residence of the State of Yue Ling, Yun Ruoleng returned to the Phoenix Warm Pavilion and locked himself in his room once again. He didn''t know if he had comprehended something, but it was too late for him to walk to the soft couch, and he immediately sat on the carpet in his room to cultivate.


    When Yun Ruoleng left the room, no one followed. When he returned, they were still standing at the door like a pine tree.


    "Halt!" At that moment, an unfamiliar maidservant carrying a tray was preparing to enter the Phoenix Warm Pavilion. The member of the Raging Flames Squadron who was guarding the door finally reacted and shouted in a stern voice.


    The young maid was so frightened that her whole body trembled. She cowered and replied, "This servant is ¡­ is from the Shang Gong Bureau. I have specially come to deliver new clothes for young lady."


    "Leave your things behind, you can leave now!" The guard took a step forward and was about to receive the object in the young maid''s hands.


    However, she didn''t expect the young maid to take a step back. She said with a trembling voice, "This servant still needs to ask and clarify where and how I should change my clothes."


    "This ¡­" Even if he was a member of the Flame Artillery Squadron, he didn''t dare make any reckless decisions. Moreover, Miss Han coincidentally happened to happen yesterday, so he didn''t dare to let her into the courtyard.


    The young maid stood at the side. Although her entire body was trembling, her spirited eyes revealed her current state of mind. However, no one noticed. At this time, Liefeng walked out. After his gaze swept over the young maid''s body, he frowned, "What''s going on?"


    "Captain? She''s here to deliver the clothes."


    "Put the things down and he can leave." Being the leader of the elite phoenix images, one could imagine how bold she was.


    The young maid was so frightened that she knelt in front of the strong gale with a "putong" sound: "Sir, this servant can''t just leave like this. This new dress was worn when the young lady was getting married to the emperor, this servant has to let the young lady have a try to see if there is anything that needs to be changed."


    Raging Flames would not make things difficult for a young maid. However, the matter yesterday had made him wary, so he was unwilling to release her. The noise outside attracted the attention of Zhu Lan, who was packing his stuff. She slowly said: "Miss has a bad temper, if you block her now, I''m afraid you''re going to be scolded again."


    Zephyr expressed helplessness. He had no choice but to admit that Zhu Lan was right and had no choice but to admit that what he did was asking for trouble. Hence, with just one sentence from Zhu Lan, the ferocious winds that had been blocking him in every possible way were released. The young maid kowtowed gratefully to the strong wind and thanked him again. This caused the strong wind to feel awkward.


    "Are you a new member of the Palace Bureau?" Zhu Lan subconsciously frowned as she looked at the young maid who had walked in. She had no impression of this person at all, and she could not help but feel a sense of vigilance in her heart.


    The young maid''s eyes were filled with panic, her small face wrinkled enough to see that she was afraid. She lightly nodded at Zhu Lan''s words.


    "What''s your name?" Zhu Lan''s brows knitted even tighter, as he kept having the feeling that something was wrong.


    "Servant, servant Yun Zhi." Yun Zhi asked in a low voice, a faint smile on her petite face, as if she was trying to hide her fear.


    Zhu Lan nodded, then his gaze turned to Liefeng, who was standing at the side. Strong Wind wrinkled his brows, revealing a hint of deep thought at a place that Yun Zhi didn''t see.


    "The young lady just came back and entered the house. I''m afraid we won''t have a good ending if we disturb her now. "Take a seat first, I''ll help you take a look."


    "Thank you, Aunt." The smile on Yun Zhi''s face became wider and wider. Under Zhu Lan''s lead, she went to the corridor and sat down.


    This change did not escape from the eyes of the Strong Gale who had been observing her from the dark. At the beginning, the Strong Gale only suspected that something was wrong, so he quickly told the guards at his side to go to the Palace Bureau to investigate Yun Zhi. At the same time, he instructed everyone to be on their guard.


    The atmosphere in the pavilion also changed. Yun Zhi sat on the veranda as she placed the red lacquer tray on her lap. Her hands fiddled with it nonstop, as if she hadn''t noticed it at all.


    Zhu Lan hung Yun Zhi on the side and did not knock on Yun Ruoleng''s door. From her point of view, this unknown servant girl might very well be a threat to Yun Ruoleng, just in case she had to investigate this person''s background thoroughly earlier.


    The Raging Flame Squad were without a doubt the most elite squads in Phoenix Diagram''s possession. They fought against Jun Qingshang''s An Ying and the efficiency of the battle was so great that they managed to obtain all the information they needed in just two hours.


    "How is it?" Zhu Lan looked at the scroll in Zephyr Blade''s hands and could not help but ask.


    Strong Gale nodded his head then shook it. This situation made Zhu Lan a little dazed: "Shaking your head to indicate that this person is not?"


    "This person is Yun Zhi, it''s just that Yun Zhi disappeared half a month ago." Zephyr''s words set off an alarm in Zhu Lan, who turned and ran towards Yun Ruoleng''s sleeping quarters.


    "Hey ¡­" Zephyr reached out a hand to grab Zhu Lan, but in that instant, Zhu Lan had already escaped far away from his arms. Liefeng was a bit helpless and hurriedly followed, saying as he walked, "I haven''t finished speaking yet, then Chief Shang Gong did send Yun Zhi over. It''s just that that Yun Zhi and the missing Yun Zhi look different, and this one in front of us ¡­"


    "This is the girl who disappeared for no reason, Yun Zhi." Zhu Lan''s footsteps sped up, and the expression on his face had long become impatient. Only then did he interrupt the torrent of words.


    Liefeng was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "It is said that the maids by His Majesty''s side are clever and clever. Seeing them today, they are indeed like that."


    Zhu Lan''s footsteps paused, he turned around and stared fiercely at him: "I am no longer Your Majesty''s maid anymore!"


    "Eh ¡­"


    Being able to serve as a maid in the Phoenix Diagram was not as simple as just one''s appearance and figure. It was mainly because of one''s agility and wisdom.


    And now, Phoenix had executed a maid who sent Yun Ruoleng to him. A maid who was restless long ago had started to get restless. If it was said that outside of Yue Ling was a battlefield, then it was only a battlefield for men. And the harem was also a battlefield.


    Zhu Lan''s gaze just now clearly told Lie Feng that she was very unwilling.

 C331

    Zhu Lan walked quickly, and while the strong wind was still in a daze, he had already walked to the door of Yun Ruoleng''s room. From this position, he could see Yun Zhi sitting right in front of him, and when he saw that Yun Zhi was still sitting upright, he couldn''t help but frown.


    "Are you curious?" Unknowingly, Strong Gale had arrived behind Zhu Lan and spoke with extreme charm.


    Zhu Lan subconsciously nodded, and when he came back to his senses, he couldn''t help but take another look at Liefeng: "If you have something to say, say it!"


    "Can''t you see how simple it is? "This girl seems to have come to find you." Liefeng said proudly.


    Zhu Lan rolled his eyes at him in annoyance: "What you''re saying is not nonsense. You''re not carrying the new clothes to look for the girl, but for you? "


    Liefeng coughed lightly, "She is a busy girl, not here to assassinate or to murder."


    "People from the Heavenly Awakening Realm?" Zhu Lan''s expression changed as he subconsciously looked at the strong gale.


    Liefeng nodded, "Do you want to go get a girl?"


    Zhu Lan rolled his eyes at him once again. "I''m going to look for the Emperor."


    Liefeng reached out his hand to stop Zhu Lan, who was about to leave, "We still don''t know the truth of the matter, let''s just take a look first! The entire Flame Artillery Squadron can''t even stop a single woman? "


    Zhu Lan looked at him suspiciously: "Are you sure you want to help me?"


    "Of course! Because he is our common enemy. " Evil Liefeng smiled charmingly, "As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend."


    "¡­" Zhu Lan silently looked at the sky, raised his hand and lightly knocked on the door.


    There was no sound in the room, as if there was no one inside. Zhu Lan frowned slightly, and muttered: "I saw the girl go in just now! "Where is he?"


    Zephyr''s gaze did not leave Yun Zhi at all. Seeing her occasional uneasy look, the doubt in his heart grew deeper. At a place that Zhu Lan did not see, a killing intent surfaced in his eyes.


    She thought that she was going to level up, but the heat was not slowed down because of training. On the contrary, because of the training, it was getting hotter, and her entire body was feeling like it was being burned, the feeling was incomparable.


    As Yun Ruoleng sat on the ground, his clothes were already drenched in sweat. The fine beads of sweat on his forehead continued to slide down, finally forming into a bean-sized drop that rolled on the ground below his thin forehead.


    She couldn''t hear Zhu Lan knocking at the door from outside. At this moment, she felt as if she was in lava and her mind sensed a sea of fire around her. A face similar to hers appeared in the sea of fire.


    Suddenly, a bright light flashed and a beautiful white figure appeared.


    The woman''s appearance was very similar to hers. On her forehead was a purple amulet and a pair of purple phoenix eyes were slightly raised, as if she was challenging him. Her pale face was paired with her snow-white long hair.


    "Who are you?" Yun Ruoleng could not feel the heat coming from her body, so he looked at her in a daze, and after a long while, he came back to his senses and asked cautiously.


    The woman smiled slightly, raising her arm as if she wanted to stroke, but she became more and more transparent, her fingers directly passed through Yun Ruoleng''s face, her pale lips opened wide, and not a single word came out.


    The woman''s body slowly disappeared. Yun Ruoleng felt that his body was free to move, and suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that it was almost dusk. His heart felt like there was a giant boulder pressing on it, and he was unable to catch his breath for a long time.


    The door was knocked again. Yun Ruoleng slowly got up from the ground, feeling as if his entire body had been hollowed out. His limbs were powerless, and he finally walked to the soft couch with difficulty to sit down.


    Yun Ruoleng''s voice was still weak, as he leaned his head against the soft couch with one hand. The door opened as a result. Zhu Lan entered and bowed slightly to Yun Ruoleng: "Miss, a servant girl called Yun Zhi has brought the clothes over. Would you like to try it first?"


    Yun Ruoleng only felt that her body was sticky. If she wanted to try on a new set of clothes, she would need to shower and change clothes, even if she didn''t need to do so, she wanted to take a bath as well. She shook her head:


    "Yes sir!" Only now did Zhu Lan realize that Yun Ruoleng''s body was unwell, and carefully retreated.


    Zhu Lan''s work efficiency was still very fast. In a short moment, four servants carried water and placed it behind the screen. Behind them were four or five maids, each holding a flower basket. Zhu Lan, who was walking at the back, was holding onto a red lacquer tray, and on it were the new clothes that he had just delivered today.


    Yun Ruoleng''s body was still weak, it was like a huge war just now, but it was as though something had entered her brain. Although she did not levelled up, she felt as though all the veins in her body were opened, and at the moment, she could use Shaman Energy to recover her energy, as well as to look at everyone busy.


    "Miss, the water is ready." After Zhu Lan put the things down, he came out and bowed to Yun Ruoleng. She heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "Has Miss advanced?"


    Yun Ruoleng shook his head, he had not levelled up yet, it was just that the meridians in his body had been opened, it was definitely a good thing.


    Zhu Lan was suspicious, why did he not advance and end up in such a sorry state?


    Of course, she only dared to say these kinds of words in her heart and didn''t dare to ask.


    With Zhu Lan''s help, Yun Ruoleng moved behind the screen. After waving everyone away, Yun Ruoleng laid down contentedly in the bathtub, feeling that every cell in his body had received a good amount of nourishment, and were releasing a light fragrance from the petals. The fatigue in his body disappeared with the water, as if his entire being was revived.


    After Yun Ruoleng finished bathing, she walked out of the bathtub. A small bell was hung at her delicate ankles, and she couldn''t help but frown: "Where did this come from?" When did it happen?


    However, no one told her these questions, so much so that her heart was in her throat.


    After Yun Ruoleng randomly put on the clothes, she called Zhu Lan in. Seeing her dressing, Zhu Lan could not help but laugh: "Miss, let this servant come!"


    Yun Ruoleng was not angry, he threw the jacket back onto the screen and spread it out with both of his hands: "If I had known earlier, I wouldn''t have worn so much."


    "Miss is a little unfamiliar with Yue Ling and clothing. In the future, this sort of thing should be done by me!" Zhu Lan said with a smile, but did not expect his unintentional words to cause Yun Ruoleng to roll his eyes.


    The clothes were quickly dressed, the new clothes that was delivered from Chief Shang Gong were very appetizing to Yun Ruoleng, she stood in front of the bronze mirror and shook herself a few times, as she liked the clothes more and more.


    Zhu Lan was also very happy to see this, and asked: "Does Miss still feel that something is amiss? If there are any servants, let them remember it. "

 C332

    Yun Ruoleng looked at the clothes on his body, moved his neck, and pointed to his neck: "This collar is a bit high, it''s so hot, yet I can''t understand it in such a high level."


    "The empress''s attire is based on a noble high collar. This piece of clothing completely meets the requirements. Furthermore, this piece of clothing was worn after the wedding, it should be winter then. At that time, the young lady won''t feel that something is amiss."


    The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched uncontrollably. Although the material of this clothes was very good, whether he could become the Queen in Zhu Lan''s mouth was still a question.


    Looking at the clothes, Yun Ruoleng started to worry.


    Zhu Lan seemed to realize that his words were wrong and immediately covered his mouth as he laughed, "If this lady does not like it, then there''s no harm in having someone change it."


    Yun Ruoleng did not continue speaking, he took off his clothes after he was done changing, and yawned as he waved his hands lazily: "I''m also tired, if there''s nothing else, do not disturb me."


    Zhu Lan replied as she obediently carried the clothes and left the room, and even considerately closed the door for Yun Ruoleng.


    The room became quiet once again. Yun Ruoleng rubbed his forehead that was faintly aching, then sat down in front of the light.


    Yun Ruoleng sat under the lamp and unfolded a piece of white paper. There was nothing inside, which made Yun Ruoleng very embarrassed. Just now, when he was putting on his clothes, he found out that it was actually a piece of white paper.


    It was unknown if he was very disappointed or not, but Yun Ruoleng threw the paper onto the candlestick, which just happened to light up the paper, and three big words astonishingly appeared on the paper: "Immortal-Suppressing Orb."


    Yun Ruoleng''s hand trembled, and almost overturned the candlestick. This symbol was the same as the one on the dead house, which meant that Black Robe had given the letter to him.


    After Yun Ruoleng burned the paper in his hand, it looked like nothing had happened, but his heart had already been thrown into disarray. Black Robe''s power was great, but once he entered the house, he would never be able to leave.


    Black Robe was Yun Ruoleng''s teacher and friend. He had taught Yun Ruoleng a lot of things while he was still in his room, to the point that Yun Ruoleng''s cultivation speed had increased to such an extent that after he left the capital, her cultivation speed started to slow down. During this period of time, he stayed in the house and trained, even if he had nothing to do, it had increased a bit.


    The level that the Phoenix Diagram wanted, was something that even he himself would not be able to reach! Yun Ruoleng looked at the slip of paper that was burned to ashes and laughed bitterly. In order to save himself, Jun Qingshang had already fallen into the trap, he could only pray that Black Robe did not fall into the trap.


    Yun Ruoleng left the candlestick and sat down on the soft couch, the sleepiness in his mind was gone, his mind was a mess. He took a sip of tea.


    In the courtyard, Zhu Lan took out the clothes and gave them to Yun Zhi after serving Yun Ruoleng. After seeing her receive the tray timidly, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "Miss thinks the clothes are good, but the collar is too high, I''m not used to it."


    "The manager of the Silk Spun Department said that the high collar workers made the ladies look more noble. If she were to change ¡­"


    "It''s good that you like her. Just go back and reply." Zhu Lan did not say much and just gave a glance to the guard beside him. The guard understood and made a gesture to invite him in.


    Just then, the closed door was suddenly pulled open, and Yun Ruoleng who was wrapped in a cape stood at the entrance, just in time to see this scene, the people in the courtyard really wanted to see Yun Ruoleng.


    "Why, why did you come out?" Zhu Lan was shocked, thinking that Yun Ruoleng was only wearing the inner garment, he threw away Yun Zhi and headed in Yun Ruoleng''s direction.


    "This is ¡­" Yun Ruoleng looked at Yun Zhi and felt that this face was both unfamiliar and familiar. He felt that this face was familiar.


    "This servant Yun Zhi greets the young lady." The timid Yun Zhi suddenly said something. There was no trace of cowardice in her eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, it was not because of Yun Zhi''s name, but because Yun Zhi''s eyes were extremely similar to An Xiang''s eyes, and her voice was even more so ¡­


    Zhu Lan did not notice all of this, but right now her entire mind was on Yun Ruoleng''s clothes. A man in the courtyard, if she were to act like this, rumors would probably spread out in a moment: "Miss, let''s go in and change clothes to talk!"


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at her indifferently, and did not reply her. Instead, he waved his hand at Yun Zhi, "Where did you come from? "She looks so pretty."


    "This servant is from Shang Gong Bureau, I''m here to deliver new clothes for young lady." For a moment, Yun Zhi became timid again, her eyes dreamy, "Lady, the young lady is really, really beautiful."


    "Is that so?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, "I hope I''m ugly."


    "Miss!" Zhu Lan was anxious, seeing that she was not going to enter the house, his voice became louder.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression turned cold, and berated sternly: "Master, when did it become your turn to interrupt!"


    "This servant knows her wrongs ¡­" Although Zhu Lan said that, his face did not show any signs of admitting his wrongs, "Please enter young lady."


    "What do I need your help with?" Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, then said to Liefeng who was standing at the side: "Call in the Phoenix Diagram!"


    "This ¡­" Liefeng looked at Zhu Lan and wanted to plead for her, but his words were cut off by Yun Ruoleng.


    "What? You''re not going to listen to me either?" Yun Ruoleng sneered: "Sure! So it turns out that all of you were sent by the Phoenix Diagram to monitor me! Good! "Very good!"


    "No ¡­" "No!" Strong wind continued to send meaningful glances at Zhu Lan.


    Zhu Lan also cooperated, and with a "plop" she knelt on the ground. felt that her bones were about to crack, but she did not even frown a little. Zhu Lan folded his hands, and paired them with his eyebrows: "This servant is worried, please forgive me."


    Yun Ruoleng was truly proud and arrogant, she coldly snorted and directly walked out, causing Zhu Lan to be greatly shocked. She threw herself forward, stopped Yun Ruoleng and said: "Miss, you should return with this servant! You are... "This way ¡­"


    "It''s not like I''m not wearing anything!" Yun Ruoleng thought to himself, wearing clothes inside, there should also be two of them! The innermost apron was even to the thigh, and it was even longer than the 21st century bikini. What was so shameful about that?


    When Yun Ruoleng was being unreasonable, she couldn''t do anything about Zhu Lan at all. Yun Zhi, who was standing to the side, understood what Zhu Lan wanted to say but hesitated, and then kneeled down as well: "There are a lot of men here, please change into a set of convenient clothes."


    Yun Ruoleng squinted his eyes slightly, and looked down at the top of Yun Zhi''s head condescendingly. Seeing that her entire body was trembling uncontrollably, as if everything that he had just felt was an illusion, it was not a big deal in the first place. Furthermore, Yun Ruoleng had only wanted to make use of this opportunity and was about to succeed, but a little girl stopped him.


    Zhu Lan then let out a breath of relief and raised his head to look at Yun Zhi gratefully.

 C333

    Yun Zhi smiled at her, "It''s a bit late, your servant still needs to return to report. Aunt, please do me a favor."


    "Go back!" Zhu Lan nodded his head. Although he was grateful, his doubts did not change, after Yun Zhi left, Zhu Lan sent people to monitor her every move, and she headed towards Yun Ruoleng''s room.


    "Bam!" Zhu Lan had just walked to the door when it closed. Luckily she did not walk too quickly, otherwise her head would have been smashed. The corner of Zhu Lan''s mouth twitched. It seemed that he was truly unhappy this time.


    "Scram!" Yun Ruoleng''s voice that was not even slightly warm came out from the room. Zhu Lan, who was raising his hand to knock on the door stiffened, not knowing what to do next.


    Actually, Yun Ruoleng had a good temper, but that was on the premise that she cared about people like Peach Blossom and Cui Ying. Once she reached the Yue Ling, her temper became easily angered, especially when she looked at the group of people arranged by the Phoenix Sect outside the door.


    "This servant will wait outside the door. If Miss needs any instructions, please do so." Zhu Lan''s hands were stiff for a moment before he spoke softly.


    Although there was no reply from inside, she knew that Yun Ruoleng had heard her words. It was just that during the night watch, Zhu Lan did not sleep peacefully.


    If it wasn''t for the fact that Yun Ruoleng had not slept at all, Zhu Lan would have really thought that she was being tricked!


    Therefore, he took out a book and began to carefully study it. The books Yun Ruoleng had recently read were not books related to cultivation, but were some history books on Yue Ling. These books could be seen everywhere, and the Phoenix Diagram did not suspect anything, and only thought that she had made preparations for getting familiar with the Yue Ling.


    She had not only read books for these reason, many of them were books of history to see if any wizards had escaped from the formation. The imagination was beautiful, but the results were not satisfactory. She flipped through a few books, but still couldn''t find a way to escape.


    Since he could not find it, his mood immediately turned worse. He had drank water more often than usual, hence he pitied Zhu Lan, running back and forth many times. It was only until the middle of the night that Yun Ruoleng finally put down his book and went to sleep.


    The study room of the Phoenix Diagram was still brightly lit, with Zephyr Guild standing in front of the desk and talking to Phoenix Diagram about what had happened today in the Phoenix Warm Pavilion. The Phoenix Diagram was a suspicious person, after hearing the news about Yun Zhi, his face immediately changed.


    "Has she been in contact with Ruo Er before?"


    "No, I was only helping Zhu Lan at the door." Liefeng didn''t understand why Phoenix Diagram would ask such a question, but he understood that according to the facts, it was sufficient as long as he reported.


    Huang Tu frowned: "Then what about the supervisors?"


    "The Shang Gong Bureau did not have any big reactions, and the Silk Spinning Bureau was even more so. After Yun Zhi finished her report, she went back to rest." Liefeng''s words surprised Feng Tu. As long as it was something related to Yun Ruoleng, he would pay more attention to it.


    "Continue supervising. If there is anything abnormal, report to me immediately!"


    "Yes sir!" Ah Zheng, who was standing on his right side, couldn''t help but take another look at the strong wind.


    "What else do you want?" Seeing that the two had no intention to leave, Huang Tu casually asked.


    Liefeng shook his head and was about to leave, but was stopped by Ah Zheng, "Today''s matters in the garden ¡­"


    "That''s right, Your Majesty. That manservant is very strange. If he were a guard, it''s impossible that he wouldn''t be able to pick flowers. With a single flower, he would have ruined the courtyard." As Zephyr said this, he revealed a look of regret: "Then in the courtyard, do you have the white peony that was delivered from the south side a few days ago? It just got wiped out by his sword. "


    had always been smart, but this time he made a serious mistake. When Jun Qingshang picked flowers, it was a small matter. If it was a guard, even if he didn''t know, he wouldn''t be like this. After all, which guard would have the guts to do so? He even dared to destroy the items he used.


    Zephyr and Ah Zheng who were looking at Huang Tu revealed this expression, as if they understood something, but Ah Zheng was a little more straightforward and directly asked: "Master already knew that there was something wrong with him?"


    "Yes sir!" However, it was too late for Lie Feng to stop this unstoppable person. Fortunately, Feng Tu was in a good mood so he chuckled and said: "I wasn''t sure in the past, but it''s different now. Just send someone to keep an eye on them. Don''t alert them. "


    "Yes sir!" Only then did the two of them leave.


    Yun Ruoleng slept all night, and the moment he woke up, he heard people clamoring and crying outside. He yawned lazily and turned his body, wanting to ignore what was happening, but unexpectedly, the door was kicked open with a bang.


    "Slut!" Yun Ruoleng was a little dazed as he turned around and sat on the bed, and watched Han Qianqian, who was dressed in fiery red clothes, charge in.


    "Bitch, what you did!" Han Qianqian rushed to the front of Yun Ruoleng''s bed. A bucket of ice-cold water was poured over Yun Ruoleng''s body, directly drenching his entire body.


    Only now did Yun Ruoleng come back to his senses, feeling sticky on his body, he couldn''t help but frown: "What are you crazy about so early in the morning for again?"


    "All the flowers in the garden have been destroyed by you! Are you happy? You stole my seat, so I don''t even have the qualifications to admire flowers anymore? " Han Qianqian said as he raised his hand to slap Yun Ruoleng''s face.


    Zhu Lan was startled when he rushed in, the distance was too far, he had no time to stop them.


    "Pa!" A crisp sound echoed in the room, silencing the whole room. Zhu Lan stared dumbstruck at Yun Ruoleng''s instantaneous movements. The hand that was originally in Yun Ruoleng''s direction was hit back by Yun Ruoleng, and directly slapped into Han Qianqian''s face.


    That was exactly what he had said about Han Qianqian! Yun Ruoleng slowly stood up from the bed, a smile that was not a smile hung on his lips, his originally drenched clothes and hair instantly dried up. Han Qianqian was so scared that he retreated a few steps, forgot to cry, and asked while trembling: "Wha, what are you doing?"


    Change your clothes!" Yun Ruo''s cold gaze shifted away from her, and she instantly disappeared from her sight. No matter how many martial arts Han Qianqian had seen, she had never seen a martial arts technique disappear without a trace. It was as if a ghost had appeared and disappeared without a trace. Han Qianqian was scared silly.


    Zhu Lan didn''t pay attention to the shocked Han Qianqian. He took the clothes that were already prepared and walked behind the screen, and helped Yun Ruoleng put them on one by one.


    "Does the girl still want to go for a walk in the garden?" Zhu Lan helped her tidy up her clothes and said: "The flower garden was messed up by Little Four yesterday, I don''t think there''s even a place for me to rest right now."


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows unconsciously twitched, she finally understood why there were no more flowers in the Regent¡¯s Mansion. It was because Jun Qingshang was a person who destroyed flowers, even if the flowers in the courtyard did not offend him, they would still suffer greatly.

 C334

    "Miss?" Zhu Lan called out to the absent-minded Yun Ruoleng softly.


    Yun Ruoleng nodded and responded to her? Zhu Lan followed her helplessly out of the room, but this time, Han Qianqian was still standing in the room, seeing that he was no longer as arrogant and despotic as before, he shuddered and stammered: "You, what technique did you use just now?"


    "Teleport." Yun Ruoleng was originally quite a distance away from her, but when she finished speaking, she was already in front of her.


    Han Qianqian looked at the face that suddenly appeared in front of him, and screamed in shock, "Are you a human or a ghost!? How can there be such an evil spell? "


    "I am a witch, of course there is." Yun Ruoleng played with his fingers, and a slight smile hung on his lips. His phoenix eyes playfully looked at Han Qianqian: "You''re used to bragging, but you''re actually afraid of such things.


    "You ¡­"


    "Zhu Lan, go tell this matter to the Phoenix Diagram and let him know that some people aren''t afraid of the heavens or the earth." Yun Ruoleng''s voice was as light as snow and it was ice-cold with an unswerving determination that could not be refused.


    Zhu Lan looked at Han Qianqian with a pitiful gaze, then left with a grunt.


    "Halt!" Han Qianqian tried to stop Zhu Lan, but he was blocked by Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng''s rule of conduct had always been "If others do not offend me, I will not offend". Now that Han Qianqian had continuously caused trouble for her, if he did not teach her a lesson this time, it would only become worse in the future.


    "You ¡­" Han Qianqian subconsciously took a step back, and the expression on his face became somewhat ugly: "I have no intention of making you my enemy."


    "I''m afraid your words will not convince me." Yun Ruoleng said lazily: "I warned you the last time, but you didn''t listen, so you shouldn''t be afraid of falling into my hands."


    "I... "How dare you!" Han Qianqian roared, but in her heart she was extremely afraid. She knew that even if Yun Ruoleng tried to strangle her to death today, no one would dare to say anything.


    Yun Ruoleng turned his hand, and a dagger shining with cold light appeared in her hand. Seeing this, Han Qianqian took a step back again, and looked at Yun Ruoleng with alert.


    I remember the last time I used it, it was in the forest of Jingcheng. I used it to kill three assassins in black, and this dagger didn''t even have a drop of blood on it, so I named it ''Bloodthirsty''. Today you have the luck to taste the sharpness of bloodthirst, which is your fortune. Yun Ruoleng said as he played with the dagger in his hand.


    Han Qianqian''s tone was as light as snow. Although it was a short story, the coldness in the surroundings only increased, it was true that Han Qianqian had some skill, but her cat''s skill could compare to Yun Ruoleng''s peak level, it was akin to being killed in an instant.


    Yun Ruoleng pressed on, step by step, causing Han Qianqian to retreat. His face no longer had the haughtiness of a young miss, and there were some that became flustered. Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but find it funny, this woman was truly a bully the weak and was afraid of the strong, it was the same last time, it was the same this time.


    "Miss, you can''t!" Liefeng stood at the door for a long time but still couldn''t hear anything, he came to take a look, and his heart almost jumped out when he saw it.


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows slightly knitted, as he turned around and coldly looked at Liefeng, who ran in without reporting anything, and asked, "What are you doing here?"


    "Subordinate ¡­"


    "Get out!" Yun Ruoleng rarely heard his explanation, and directly ordered coldly.


    Han Qianqian looked at the strong gale as if he was begging for help, placing all his hope on it. However, the moment Yun Ruoleng said those words, the strong gale that was originally shouting "no" could only droop its head and retreat.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered: "You think she will save you?"


    Han Qianqian''s lips tightened, and though there was fury in her eyes, it could not hide the fear in her heart. All of a sudden, Yun Ruoleng liked the feeling of watching other people die on the border of life and death, especially this arrogant and despotic woman.


    With a light wave of the dagger in Yun Ruoleng''s hand, the hair that hung down on both sides of Han Qianqian was cut off. An ear-piercing scream immediately sounded in the room: "You killed me, my father will definitely not let you off!"


    "I''m not even afraid of the Phoenix Diagram, much less your father." Yun Ruoleng scoffed at Han Qianqian''s words, the reason she was so arrogant and despotic, was because her father had contributed a lot.


    Han Qianqian covered his shoulders as he continuously retreated. Yun Ruoleng always maintained a smile that was not a smile, and when she took a step back, she would follow suit.


    "Bam!" Han Qianqian was on guard against Yun Ruoleng and retreated, because he did not notice behind him, he broke the vase instantly. The porcelain was smashed into pieces, and the sound shocked the already restless Strong Gale, as he peeked his head out from the door to take a look at the situation.


    "Captain, are we not going to stop him?" Because Han Qianqian was Han Mo''s only daughter, none of them were willing to see Yun Ruoleng really kill Han Qianqian.


    Save? He wanted to save her, but Han Qianqian''s actions were not worth it for him to save. Looking at how Yun Ruoleng was pressing on her step by step, it was as if he did not want to kill her, so Lie Feng also stood there and did not do anything.


    At this time, a noise came from the entrance of the Phoenix Warm Pavilion. Liefeng turned around and was immediately shocked and quickly knelt down in salute. Huang Tu waved his hand in the air and strode into the room.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the shattered porcelain bottle and subconsciously creased his brows. "This is a royal gift, Miss Han, you ¡­"


    "I-I didn''t mean it!" Han Qianqian was so scared by Yun Ruoleng''s words that his whole body broke out in cold sweat. Breaking through the bestowal was a heinous crime, no matter how capable father was, he wouldn''t be able to protect himself.


    Yun Ruoleng kept the dagger in his sleeves, suddenly a hand rested on her shoulder and pulled her into his embrace. Yun Ruoleng unhappily raised his head and looked at the owner of the Demon Claw, his small and exquisite face turning green and white.


    "Little Ruo Er is surprised." The words and actions of Phoenix Diagram were very ambiguous, Han Qianqian stood beside the broken pieces of porcelain and watched the scene with reddened eyes.


    Just now when Yun Ruoleng wanted to kill her, although she was afraid, her eyes did not turn red, but when the Phoenix Diagram appeared, her eyes actually turned red. However ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng slowly raised her lips: "Your majesty, how should we punish for damaging the bestowal?"


    Huang Tu was startled. He thought that she would ruthlessly wave his hand away, but he didn''t expect her to actually chat with him in such a posture. In an instant, Phoenix Diagram felt his entire mind go blank.


    Yun Ruoleng''s brows slightly rose, "Your majesty!"


    "Damaging the item bestowed on you will be rewarded with fifty large sticks as a sign of the might of the heavens." Feng Tu''s words became much softer as he looked down at Yun Ruoleng''s small face that was the size of a palm. "If you broke it, then you broke it! At most, it''s just a single thing. "


    Yun Ruoleng laughed softly as he covered his face. Without batting an eyelid, he came out of the Phoenix Diagram and slowly walked in front of Han Qianqian. The smile on his face stiffened. Looking at Han Qianqian who was retreating, he seemed to have understood something.

 C335

    "Liefeng, your master has already said it, what are you still standing there for?" Yun Ruoleng stopped in his tracks and looked at Han Qianqian with a smile.


    The smile on Yun Ruoleng''s exquisite face was extremely beautiful, but in the eyes of different people, the feeling was different. Han Qianqian felt his hair stand on end as he looked at Yun Ruoleng''s smile. Zephyr listened to her words and subconsciously glanced at the Phoenix Diagram that was standing with his hands behind his back.


    He was actually bewitched by Yun Ruoleng''s beauty and was tricked by her. He never expected that this woman was still so unreasonable.


    Han Qianqian was not an idiot. Seeing that Phoenix Fairy Beauty didn''t say anything, he felt that Phoenix Fairy Beauty was hesitating and immediately kneeled down and begged for forgiveness, "Your Majesty, please spare me! This vase wasn''t purposely broken by this humble woman. It ¡­ it was her! She was the one who threatened my daughter, and she broke the vase in a panic. "


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrow, looking at the pair of jade hands pointing at her, she was not in a hurry to speak.


    Huang Tu did not like women crying in front of him, it was just that very few people knew about it. As his iron fan, Han Qianqian didn''t know either. He only thought that if he cried a little and complained a little, he would be able to push all the mistakes to Yun Ruoleng himself, and he would be able to escape this calamity.


    Yun Ruoleng folded his arms across his chest, and looked at Han Qianqian with a smile that was not a smile, this reaction caused Han Qianqian to be startled, and he did not know what to say next.


    "You''re done?" Feng Tu''s devilish face still had a smile on it, his eyebrows twitched as he looked at Yun Ruoleng and said: "Do you have an explanation?"


    "Why did Miss Han appear at the Warm Phoenix Pavilion?" Yun Ruoleng asked leisurely.


    Han Qianqian''s heart shook, his gaze kept on dodging, unable to lie even if he wanted to. Because just now, he was the one who came here in a rage to denounce them for his crimes.


    "Miss Han came to find me to denounce me! You came in here and you wanted to give me a slap. Tut! Ever since I, Yun Ruoleng, became a witch, no one has dared to slap me! " What she meant was that she, Han Qianqian, was nothing! A person that the Heavenly Imperial Family had never fought against, she actually wanted to beat her up.


    "Han Qianqian!" The Phoenix Diagram was truly enraged this time, he even dared to touch the woman in his palm! This woman''s death was not worth lamenting!


    "Your ¡­ Your Majesty ¡­" Han Qianqian was like a deflated ball as she sat paralyzed on the ground. Her almond-shaped eyes were slightly red, and the hair on both sides of her body was a little asymmetrical.


    "On the account that your father is meritorious towards Yue Ling! "I can spare your life today, but I can''t escape the fate of death!" Feng Tu swept a cold glance at Han Qianqian who had heaved a long sigh of relief: "Fierce Wind, drag him down and ruthlessly beat us up!"


    "Your Majesty, you can''t!" Liefeng kneeled in front of Phoenix Diagram with a ''plop''. "If you beat her to death, General Han will definitely not accept it."


    Han Qianqian was Han Mo''s flesh and blood. She had not forgotten about the matter of him plotting against Jun Qingshang, so getting revenge from his daughter wasn''t a bad thing.


    Just as Huang Tu was about to change his mind, Yun Ruoleng suddenly raised his head and glared at Huang Tu. Is the emperor trying to change his words? If you take back the words that you said, then what is your prestige? "


    Yun Ruoleng did not continue speaking. She just wanted to make him hesitate.


    The expression in Strong Gale''s eyes changed again and again as he looked up at Yun Ruoleng. A hint of killing intent flashed past his eyes. What''s more, this woman was from Heaven''s Initiation.


    After thinking again and again, Huang Tu gave the order to drag Han Qianqian out to beat the 30 boards. To the girl, although the 30 boards didn''t cost her life, it was enough for her to feel pain for a while. The most important thing was that such an outcome was exactly the one that Yun Ruoleng wanted.


    In order to prevent Yun Ruoleng from seeing such a bloody scene, Huang Feng ordered his men to pull Han Qianqian further away from the execution.


    After sending off the Phoenix Map, Han Qianqian crossed his arms and looked at for a long time. Seeing that he did not have any intentions to go, and had instead found a place to sit, Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly.


    "Little Ruo Er is blaming us for leaving you out in the cold?" The haughty look from earlier instantly disappeared and was replaced by a mischievous smile on his face.


    Yun Ruoleng sneered and turned to leave. She was too lazy to waste her breath on him.


    "Does Ruo Er know that running away after picking us up is very immoral?" Behind him, Feng Tu did not chase out, but instead said this at a leisurely pace.


    Yun Ruoleng waved his hand with his back facing away, and stepped out of the door as if he didn''t hear anything.


    It was not that he didn''t understand what Yun Ruoleng was doing today, it was just that he wanted to use Han Qianqian''s matter to arouse Han Mo''s dissatisfaction towards him. He had a heavy soldier, if he really wanted to rebel, then he really wouldn''t be able to do so.


    After Yun Ruoleng left the room, he went over to the place where Han Qianqian was executing the punishment, only to see Little Four, who was wielding a killing stick, twitch his mouth.


    "Miss." The moment Zephyr looked at Yun Ruoleng, his expression became ugly, and he went up to obstruct Yun Ruoleng''s line of sight: "Please leave!"


    Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but look at the strong gale when his gaze was blocked. Not waiting for Yun Ruoleng to speak, the strong gale said again: "The emperor said it''s better for a lady not to see this bloody scene. "Your Majesty spoke with golden words. I hope young lady doesn''t make things difficult for Your Majesty."


    Why did this sound so familiar? Yun Ruoleng blinked her eyes as she looked at the strong gale. Didn''t she say those words just now in the room? It would be interesting if this kid used these words to describe himself.


    "It''s great that you''ve gone against me. However, there is no enmity between us, so why do you seem to have such a huge disagreement with me?" The place that Yun Ruoleng couldn''t figure out was also here. She and Zephyr did not interfere with the flow of the river, and he followed the orders, so she shouldn''t have obstructed him, right?


    "This subordinate is only following orders!" Liefeng said seriously. It really did seem to be official business.


    Yun Ruoleng curled his lips, turned around and walked in another direction, while saying, "This sound is too noisy, I''m annoyed!"


    Liefeng''s body shook and the disgust in his eyes became even stronger.


    Yun Ruoleng waved his hand and did not bring away a single cloud. As he could not leave the mansion, Yun Ruoleng''s range of movement was only in this manor. The garden had been destroyed by Jun Qingshang, so the only place he could go now was to find Lian Chi.


    After Huang Tu left the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, he returned to his study with a dark expression and ordered for Han Mo to be brought over.


    The moment Han Mo entered, he questioned without hesitation, "Your majesty! Why did you hit this humble subject''s daughter! "


    Huang Tu did not speak, he only stared coldly at Han Mo. Only then did Han Mo remember that he had overstepped his boundaries, and the anger on his body subsided. He cupped his hands, "This official is guilty."

 C336

    "You know you''re guilty!" Phoenix Diagram''s voice was as cold as ice: "Your son will not teach you! "Your daughter is acting wildly in my backyard, trying to beat the future empress. Can you accept this punishment?"


    Han Mo''s heart trembled. Only now did he realize how much trouble his daughter had caused, and he didn''t even have the face to plead for mercy. Wanting to hit the empress in the future didn''t put the emperor in his eyes. This was a serious crime, not to mention her daughter, he wouldn''t even dare to protect his son!


    He was also a selfish person, and considering the fact that the Phoenix Diagram did not take Han Qianqian''s life, the Han Mo who sought the theory from the Phoenix Diagram used his sleeve to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead and respectfully said: "My little girl is mischievous, indeed she deserves to be punished."


    "Since that''s the case, it wouldn''t be too much to punish her. However, you must be taught by the Yan Clan in the future! " "If there''s nothing else, then you can leave!" Huang Tu said with a slightly relaxed tone, waving his hand.


    "This subject has something to begin with!" Han Mo then took out a memorial from his wide sleeves and held it over his head, "Outside of the city, the soldiers of Heaven''s Enlightenment attacked us, but our army did not directly clash with them, and yet suffered heavy casualties. This group of people have come and gone without a trace, extremely similar to the An Ying Guards under the hands of the Heaven''s Enlightenment Regent, so I sincerely request that Your Majesty transfer the Raging Flames Regiment back to the army."


    "Very similar?" Huang Tu frowned: "Then, are you not sure?"


    "Heaven''s Enlightenment was able to kill over a thousand of our army with a hundred men. I can''t think of anyone else who could do that." As Han Mo spoke to here, he could only feel the heartache in his heart. In just half a month, he had already lost five to six thousand men and women.


    "Is that so?" Huang Tu narrowed his eyes. If he did not guess wrongly, Yang Zhen still had an elite unit in his possession. The people who followed him to their deaths were not limited to just a hundred people!


    Han Mo seemed to have guessed wrongly and fell into deep thought. At this time, Phoenix Diagram waved his hand at Han Mo. "Investigate carefully before asking This Emperor for more people."


    "But ¡­"


    "I''ll leave my trump card at the end." Phoenix Fairy Beauty no longer wanted to talk with him, so she summoned Ah Zheng who was at the door and told him to send Han Mo to the place where Han Qianqian would execute him.


    Just as she was sitting in a pavilion and looking at a pond full of lotus flowers sighing, she suddenly felt a figure flash past her. Yun Ruoleng squinted her phoenix eyes, as she vigilantly looked around her.


    She hadn''t thought that there would be a person living in this lotus pond. Moreover, it was a woman, and although she was standing on the fourth floor of the pavilion, her appearance couldn''t be seen from her figure. Even if this woman''s appearance was ordinary, her figure was still a rare standard.


    A maid whispered a few words into the girl''s ear before she turned around and left. Yun Ruoleng squinted her eyes slightly. This place was quiet, the people living here might not be normal! It could be seen from that silhouette earlier that the woman''s martial skills were extraordinary.


    "Miss."


    Yun Ruoleng was shocked, no one noticed that there was suddenly someone behind her. She turned her head to look, and her almond-shaped eyes darkened: "Hello."


    "I''m sure you like it very much, Miss, since you often come here to admire the lotus." The person behind him was no one else but the woman on the balcony. Although she was wearing a veil, it was difficult to conceal her bright eyes.


    Hearing her words, Yun Ruoleng seemed to be slightly embarrassed. Thinking back to the incident that Han Qianqian caused when he first came here, he couldn''t help but laugh awkwardly: "I only like this place to be peaceful."


    "Everyone says that the lotus flower is pure, but I think that it is quiet and beautiful." The woman looked at the lotus flower in the pond, and her eyes revealed a trace of a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, she seemed to like it a lot.


    The lady suddenly covered her face and laughed lightly, "My name is Qing Lian, may I know what your name is?"


    "Leng Yun." Yun Ruoleng''s personality was originally cold, and adding that he wasn''t familiar with her, he naturally didn''t talk much.


    Qing Lian looked at Yun Ruoleng in shock. "I heard the Emperor mention Leng Yun before. I heard that he''s a famous painter from Heaven, but I didn''t expect that he''s actually a woman."


    "Surprised?" Thinking about the shocked looks on everyone''s face when they looked at him at the Hundred Blossom Banquet, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but laugh. A smile appeared on her already breathtaking face, making her look even more exquisite.


    Qing Lian couldn''t help but feel a little absent-minded.


    Yun Ruoleng felt unwell from being stared at, and his gaze immediately darkened. Qing Lian also noticed her impoliteness and smiled slightly: "Young miss is too beautiful, I was distracted for a moment."


    Yun Ruoleng did not continue speaking, he did not even nod his head, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold.


    "Miss!" From afar, Zhu Lan carried a food box and walked into the courtyard. When she saw that there was another person by Yun Ruoleng''s side, she couldn''t help but be startled, and then bowed: "This servant, Zhu Lan, greets Miss Fu."


    "Aunty is too polite." Qing Lian reached out her hands to support Zhu Lan, a look of surprise flashing past her eyes. "The Emperor transferred you to Leng Yun!"


    "Yes." Zhu Lan raised his eyes and looked at Yun Ruoleng, seeing her looking to the distance as if she did not hear their conversation, he blessed himself once more: "Miss, this is the lotus seed soup that has just been made in the kitchen, do you want to try it?"


    Yun Ruoleng slowly retracted his gaze, glanced at Qing Lian, then looked at Zhu Lan once more. He said softly, "I have disturbed the young lady for quite a while, but I have not given you a present. This bowl of lotus seed soup can be considered as a form of apology. Does the girl mind? "


    "I don''t mind!" Qing Lian quickly waved her hand. "But why do you still call me ''Miss''? My name is Fu Qinglian, you can just call me Qinglian. "


    Yun Ruoleng smiled and nodded, the man gave her a very good feeling, her eyes were clear, and she did not have any complicated thoughts!


    After he sat in the pavilion and opened the box, he stared at the lotus seed soup with a smile. He took off the veil on his face, and a peerlessly beautiful face appeared in front of Yun Ruoleng and Zhu Lan.


    Her skin was creamy, her mouth was cherry red and petite, her nose was tall and small, and her eyes were filled with a smile yet not a smile. This woman''s appearance was not inferior to his, but ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng did not understand why she had to live in this quiet Lotus Pond.


    "This soup is really good. It must have been made by the emperor''s personal chef." Fu Qinglian praised as she ate. After she finished, she glared at Yun Ruoleng in jealousy, "You''re so lucky! They actually followed the emperor and ate such good food! "


    Fu Qinglian was a woman of character. While eating the lotus seed soup, she was still thinking about whether she would be able to eat it in the future.


    Zhu Lan also laughed softly, "Miss Fu would only tease my lady. What would the emperor disapprove of you staying in this palace to eat?"


    "Hur hur, that''s true." Fu Qinglian did not refute Zhu Lan''s words and agreed with a smile.


    Yun Ruoleng could not help but frown, it seemed like the lady in front of him was not as simple as a piece of white paper, maybe this woman was a real white lotus!

 C337

    Zhu Lan still wanted to say something, but was stopped by a look from Yun Ruoleng: "It''s getting late, we will take our leave first."


    Fu Qinglian paused as she ate, a trace of reluctance flashing across her eyes. "You''re leaving now?"


    "I still have things to do. How about coming back to see you another day?" Looking at her expression, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but feel a little depressed in his heart, no matter how fierce he was.


    Fu Qingxi blinked and looked at Yun Ruoleng carefully. After a while, he nodded and said, "Thank you for the soup."


    "You''re welcome!" Yun Ruoleng nodded with a smile, then left with Zhu Lan.


    Zhu Lan followed behind Yun Ruoleng. Seeing that she was not walking on the road back to the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, but on the contrary, walking to the main entrance of the mansion, his heart was filled with suspicions. What was he doing now?


    Yun Ruoleng was casually walking, but he actually didn''t know which path he was walking on. He had to walk a few turns in order to regain his senses, and upon realizing that he was walking toward the entrance of the mansion, he couldn''t help but frown, and followed along with his footsteps.


    "What happened to the girl?" Zhu Lan saw that she suddenly stopped in her tracks, and became even more curious, this was the place that the emperor often went to, did she come here to see the emperor? As Zhu Lan thought of this, he hurriedly gave her directions. "If Miss wants to see the Emperor, then walk one hundred meters forward, and then walk towards the small road on the left.


    "Who wants to see him?" Yun Ruoleng glared at Zhu Lan unhappily, and turned around. "Who was that woman?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s question caused Zhu Lan to be a little more vigilant, "She is the direct daughter of the current Prime Minister, Fu Qinglian. The Emperor has always been good to her.


    "Is that so?" No wonder it was able to live in the elegant Lotus Pond, it was actually the person at the top of the Phoenix Diagram!


    "Lady Fu is a very good person. In the past, when the emperor was still an idle king, Miss Fu would often come to the estate to help the emperor. After the emperor ascended the throne, Miss Fu set up a porridge pavilion to build a reputation for the emperor ¡­"


    When Yun Ruoleng heard this, he knew that the woman called Fu Qinglian was not as simple as she looked.


    "Girl? "Miss?" Zhu Lan realized that during this period of time, Yun Ruoleng was always in a daze, and he would call her a few times without agreeing.


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng regained his senses, and looked at Zhu Lan with suspicion: "What''s wrong?"


    Zhu Lan pointed ahead and coincidentally saw Han Mo anxiously protecting the person on the stretcher. Without even thinking, Yun Ruoleng knew who that person was and she couldn''t help but raise her eyebrows a little.


    Yun Ruoleng was looking at Han Mo, and Han Mo was also looking at Yun Ruoleng. Thinking that he had once lost to a woman, he felt awkward, so he fiercely glared at her, and left with his nose to the sky.


    "Ha!" Seeing her expression, Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but laugh. Although this Han Mo was a villain, he had to admit that he was good at certain things. If he met someone else''s father today, the person who hurt his daughter would definitely not leave so easily.


    "Why does this General Han look so awkward?" Zhu Lan''s gaze followed him as he left, and only after he could not see anything did he say in a low voice, "This still doesn''t fit with his temper?"


    "Oh?" Yun Ruoleng raised his brows, "Then I''m curious, what temper does he have?"


    "Marshal Han is famous for his ability to protect his daughter. Whether his daughter is right or wrong, as long as she is injured, Marshal Han will never let her off." Zhu Lan could not help but take an extra glance at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng innocently blinked her eyes. Although she had scared Han Qianqian, she hadn''t really done anything to him! Even if it really was to her, it was still a matter of the Phoenix Diagram.


    Seeing that she was not aware of the danger, Zhu Lan could not help but remind her, "Many people say that Marshal Han is petty, you must be careful."


    Han Mo was petty, but she didn''t know anything about Jun Qingshang. From what she saw, this person was sinister, and did things in an open and aboveboard manner. Thinking of this, Yun Ruoleng came to a conclusion that he could not help but be on guard.


    "Miss, did you hear what this servant said?" Zhu Lan was worried about Yun Ruoleng, but seeing how unconcerned she was, he felt that she was hopeless, and was annoyed.


    Yun Ruoleng waved his hands at her nonchalantly: "There''s no point in talking so much now."


    "Up to you!" Zhu Lan felt that he was already unable to explain this matter to her. Since things had already come to this point, whatever she chose to do would be her own problem.


    Yun Ruoleng was not a fool, her meaning was very obvious. At this point in time, only her emperor could protect her, but she had not forgotten that this palace was already filled with spies sent by Jun Qingshang. Even if someone truly wanted to harm her, it wouldn''t be that easy.


    It was unknown if it was because Yun Ruoleng was too relaxed, but at night, when he was lying on the bed of the Warm Phoenix Pavilion, he suddenly saw a black shadow float past the window at a speed so fast that if one did not carefully observe, it would be impossible to discover.


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly sat up, his expression darkened, and his figure instantly disappeared from the room.


    Under the moonlight, he saw a faintly discernible figure running in front of him, causing Yun Ruoleng''s brows to knit even tighter. The distance between the two of them was maintained at a hundred meters from beginning to end, and as they left the Phoenix Warm Pavilion and headed towards the small forest on the east side, Yun Ruoleng suddenly stopped in his steps. Looking at the impenetrable forest, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.


    "Ruo Er." The person in front suddenly turned around, his eyes staring straight at Yun Ruoleng, the familiar face, made Yun Ruoleng subconsciously take a few steps forward, suddenly felt that something was wrong, the surrounding air seemed to have changed, a cold killing intent rushed over.


    Yun Ruoleng leaned back, a gold light flashed in his hands, and a golden sword appeared in his hands. This was a magic weapon that he had been enlightened about recently, but compared to Yun Qingyao''s sword, this sword did not have much magic power left.


    The first move had been dissolved by Yun Ruoleng, and the next few moves were all fatal. Fortunately, Yun Ruoleng had a lot of trump cards, whether it was teleportation or the healing of his power, they were all used extremely well.


    "Bam!" She was blown away by the impact, and with great difficulty, she stabilized her body in midair. Looking at the pitch-black space beneath her, her brows knitted even tighter, and after fighting for so long, she could only feel a murderous intent, but there was nothing else. It was as if she had entered an illusion, and someone was chasing after her the moment she landed on the ground.


    Without waiting for Yun Ruoleng to find the answer, a cold light suddenly swept over. It was so fast, that Yun Ruoleng stopped in mid air, unable to dodge in time.

 C338

    The people outside the array were also shocked. Looking at her suicidal actions, they couldn''t help but burst out laughing.


    However, in the next second, she looked at the array in disbelief.


    Yun Ruoleng did not retreat but advanced instead. He originally thought that he was betting everything on one throw, but the moment the cold light neared her, Yun Ruoleng''s body instantly disappeared and reappeared at the place where the cold light was shot from. The person wearing a black robe with only the bottom half of their face exposed clenched his jaw. He subconsciously took a few steps back and raised two balls of black fog. The formation changed again.


    Yun Ruoleng''s all-out attack had no effect whatsoever, as if it had hit cotton. Yun Ruoleng was a little angry, it was not that she did not understand formations, but in Jun Qingshang''s books, she had never seen such a strange array, and was momentarily at a loss as to what to do.


    The black-robed man suddenly changed the formation as he spat out a mouthful of blood. It was as if this formation had been exchanged for with his life. Although it wouldn''t die, it was still severely injured.


    Yun Ruoleng was at a disadvantage, because he was inside the array, he could not reach the ground, the moment he got there the killing intent would become stronger, and he would be like an evil spirit pouncing at him. If that was the case, she could only float in the air, but standing in the air with her power wasn''t an easy task either. Therefore, she could only float in the air, but standing with her power couldn''t be easy either.


    At this moment, both sides were in a stalemate. No one dared to act rashly.


    Inside the Warm Phoenix Pavilion, Zhu Lan would go to Yun Ruoleng''s room to look at her in the middle of the night, just like he always did, just so that she could sleep well. Suddenly, Zhu Lan, who had gone in, let out a terrified cry, which attracted the attention of the raging flames squad outside.


    Liefeng ran inside after hearing that, "What happened?"


    "Lady ¡­ Miss has disappeared!" Zhu Lan did not care about the difference between males and females, as he dragged Zephyr along with him and walked towards the bedside, opening the curtain for him to see.


    "The blanket on the bed has been touched. It must have been taken away when I fell asleep. Otherwise, he would have run away by himself. "


    Zephyr''s words made Zhu Lan a little dissatisfied: "There''s a Witch Energy Confinement Technique in this house, even if she wants to leave, she can''t. If not, why would she be so anxious to go out at night?!"


    "What are you trying to say?" Zephyr was not an idiot, hearing Zhu Lan''s tone, he seemed to be suspecting something, so he could not say this sentence was too straightforward.


    "Send people to look for him!" Zhu Lan said snappily: "If you don''t look for me now, are you waiting for me to punish you?"


    Although Zephyr Guild was dissatisfied with Yun Ruoleng, they knew the importance of this matter. The current Yun Ruoleng could not die.


    If they were to die, all of them would be unable to escape the blame.


    Thinking like this, how could Liefeng sit still? He turned around and instructed the others, and the Raging Flames team only left one or two people to guard the courtyard while the rest went out to search. They couldn''t afford the responsibility of Yun Ruoleng disappearing for no reason at all. The first reaction of the Strong Gale was to first look for Yun Ruoleng, then go discuss it with the Phoenix Map.


    "I''ll go report to Master." Zhu Lan did not support Lie Feng''s idea. Seeing Lie Feng stopping him, he said angrily: "If we can''t find someone to talk about this later, we will die even more miserably. If you want to die, I won''t stop you, but you better not pull me down with you."


    "You!" Lie Feng pointed at Zhu Lan in anger, and after taking a few breaths, he retracted his hand and said angrily: "Up to you!"


    Zhu Lan snorted coldly, she did not listen to Lie Feng''s persuasion at all, but picked up her skirt and ran outside. In order to find Yun Ruoleng earlier, Zephyr Guild had no choice but to notify the guards within the mansion.


    After Jun Qingshang received the news, his face immediately became gloomy, and recently, he did not have the intention to escape, furthermore, Yun Ruoleng did not have the possibility of escaping, so he was still inside the residence, and suddenly disappeared, which meant that he had used teleportation.


    What was she doing out here in the middle of the night? Jun Qingshang thought as he walked behind the guards.


    When Zhu Lan ran to the Phoenix Diagram''s study room, a few ministers were surprised to see Zhu Lan, who had hurriedly rushed in and cried for help. The Prime Minister frowned, obviously displeased.


    "Why are you in such a hurry?" Zhu Lan had always followed the rules. Unless something big happened, she wouldn''t panic like this. Huang Tu''s heart tensed up. From the looks of it, it seemed like something had happened to Yun Ruoleng.


    "After this servant served the young lady to sleep, the young lady disappeared. The Flame Artillery Squadron didn''t notice her leaving, so the servant came to ask the emperor to think of a way out." Zhu Lan told them everything that had happened. The few adults who were blaming Zhu Lan couldn''t help but frown, and looked at each other.


    Huang Tu stared at him as the unease in his heart grew stronger: "Did you find him?"


    "Liefeng already sent people to look for him. I''ve searched every nook and cranny of the girl''s house, and there''s no sign of her. " When Zhu Lan came over, he had already told them to look at the place where Yun Ruoleng often walked at night. Those that came back said that there was no one, which was why she was in such a hurry.


    "Could it be that the girl just happened to be changing shifts when she left and no one noticed her?" At this moment, the Prime Minister suddenly spoke up.


    "Impossible." "The Raging Flame Squad is divided into three groups, changing shifts every six hours, and the time she goes to bed just happens to be after her shift change."


    The few lords seemed to have grasped the main point as they looked towards the Phoenix Diagram. In their eyes, they seemed to be asking, "Your majesty, how do you know so much?"


    Zhu Lan was also surprised, but it was only for a moment, thinking that this master treats the young lady well, perhaps the young lady had not realised it yet.


    At this time, the Phoenix Diagram no longer had the mood to discuss matters with the Minister. After sending him off, it stood up and walked out.


    Jun Qingshang walked alone with the group and quickly climbed a big tree. Sitting at the top of the tree, he took out the dragon shaped ink jade from his body and used the moonlight to cover his chest with the jade.


    The Dragon and Phoenix Ink Jade also had a special effect. No matter where or how far away the other party was, it would be able to quickly find him. Jun Qingshang muttered something on the dragon''s jade mouth, and Mo Yu quickly became bright. He opened his palm and flew out.


    It was surprisingly fast.


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes and disappeared in a flash. Mo Yu was fast, but Jun Qingshang was not slow either. There was only a gap of one arm between the two of them.


    The place that Mo Yu went became more remote, and suddenly stopped on a big tree. Jun Qingshang reached out to take Mo Yu and put him away, then started to look at his surroundings. This was the manor''s small forest, and very few people would come here. Furthermore, this place was very gloomy, and even more people wouldn''t come here at night.


    But Mo Yu had stopped right there, which meant that Yun Ruoleng was right there.


    Jun Qingshang squinted his eyes and looked around cautiously. He couldn''t panic at this time, otherwise it would only bring her trouble.

 C339

    Looking around, he didn''t see anything amiss, Jun Qingshang''s face immediately changed.


    Could it be that something had gone wrong with Mo Yu?


    Jun Qingshang did not dare to be careless, and started searching again, this time using his Spirit Qi to feel the changes in his surroundings, with himself as the center, he searched inch by inch. Suddenly, the beautiful eyes that was tightly shut opened its mouth. The corner of its mouth raised, but its eyes flashed with an unconcealable killing intent.


    His body flickered and reappeared with a cold sword in his hand and a black cloth on his face. Although he was dressed as a guard, it was difficult for anyone who was not familiar with "Little Four" to recognize him.


    Black Robe was currently fighting against Yun Ruoleng, and although his body could not take it anymore, it had to endure for a while. Suddenly, a burst of boundless killing intent surged, and if Black Robe wanted to dodge, it was impossible, he could only use a hand to block Jun Qingshang''s attack.


    If it was an ordinary guard, blocking an attack would be easy, but the opponent was the Regent of Heaven''s Enlightenment. Even if she used all her strength, she might not be able to block one of his attacks.


    It wasn''t that Black Robe was that weak, it was just that Jun Qingshang was too terrifying and Black Robe was also injured.


    As he swung his sword, Black Robe was sent flying and collided against a tree trunk.


    The formation crumbled as Yun Ruoleng''s figure appeared in the air. Yun Ruoleng felt that he was saved, and his body swayed and landed on the ground. Jun Qingshang originally wanted to make sure that Black Robe would suffer a fatal blow, but at the moment, he had no time to care about it.


    "You ¡­ "You''re here." When Yun Ruoleng saw her clearly, he could no longer hold on and fainted.


    When Jun Qingshang landed, Black Robe had already disappeared. He did not look for him again and instead carried Yun Ruoleng horizontally towards the Phoenix Warm Pavilion. After passing by the flower garden, Jun Qingshang didn''t continue walking forward. Because there were guards searching ahead, he slowly placed the person in his hands under the big tree. He reluctantly placed a kiss on her forehead before leaving.


    "Who''s there?" Before Jun Qingshang left, he hit the tree trunk, the sound startled the people who were searching around. The leader roared and ran towards him, just in time to see Yun Ruoleng lying under the tree, covered in blood.


    "Quick!" "When I returned to the Emperor, I found him." The lead guard was extremely excited. When they were unable to find the person just now, the Emperor had said that if they couldn''t find him now, they wouldn''t be able to live.


    This time, he had found the person.


    The more the leader saw, the more excited he became, and everyone finally felt relieved. Little Four, who had disappeared for a period of time, had quietly returned when everyone wasn''t paying attention. No one noticed that Little Four had disappeared during this period of time.


    The crowd surrounding Yun Ruoleng automatically retreated back into two rows. With one glance, Feng Tu could not help but frown slightly as he looked at the woman lying under the tree trunk, and reached out his hand in preparation to wake her up. Only then did he realize that there was blood on her body, and her delicate little face had turned slightly pale.


    Phoenix Diagram''s face instantly darkened. He reached out his hand and grabbed her wrist, injecting a trace of spirit power into her body to check out the situation around her body. The more he checked, the uglier his face became.


    "Send the imperial physician to the Phoenix Warm Pavilion!" How could the Phoenix Diagram delay any longer? He carried Yun Ruoleng in his arms, and ordered while walking: "Investigate! Check who did this for us! "


    There weren''t many people that could injure Yun Ruoleng, and there weren''t many that could injure her to such an extent. In this heavily guarded mansion, there was actually someone who dared to touch his people. It seemed he really wanted to die.


    Huang Tu''s anger was truly terrifying, the surrounding air was stifling, and no one dared to raise their head. Liefeng had long since brought people to investigate who had moved their hands. Zhu Lan stared nervously at Yun Ruoleng in Phoenix Diagram''s hands, and the expressions on everyone''s faces were different.


    When he returned to the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, the imperial physician was already waiting at the entrance. Upon seeing Phoenix Diagram return with a person in his arms, the originally doubtful imperial physician instantly understood and slowly knelt down in salute.


    "Forget it!" Show her! " Huang Dian placed Yun Ruoleng on the bed and roared anxiously.


    Zhu Lan placed Yun Ruoleng''s wrist on top of the imperial physician''s pillow. From his bosom, he took out a piece of silk and covered his wrist, and then, he began to check his pulse.


    At first, he thought it was an internal injury. As the time to check the pulse ticked by, the imperial physician discovered that it was not an internal injury. It was only because the energy in his body had been depleted that he was able to heave a sigh of relief.


    "Your majesty, this young lady is fine. It''s just that she''s exhausted and tired, so she only needs to rest for a few days."


    "What about the trauma?" Phoenix Diagram had not forgotten about the bloodstains on her body. There was one on her back, she accidentally touched it when she was carrying her back just now. She unconsciously frowned, one could imagine just how heavy this wound was!


    The royal physician continued to shake his head, "I will prescribe two prescriptions. One will recuperate your body and the other will treat your external injuries. Remember that you are not allowed to touch water after an injury, or else you will become infected. "


    "Yes sir!" Zhu Lan replied as he received the small porcelain bottle and the gauze from the imperial physician.


    stayed inside and helped Yun Ruoleng to treat the wounds on his body. After he untied his clothes, a blade that was neither deep nor shallow appeared in front of him, causing Zhu Lan''s gaze to slightly darken, who exactly was this person? Under the surveillance of a guard in the courtyard, he was actually able to take a person away and injure him to such an extent.


    Zhu Lan opened the small porcelain bottle and poured some medicinal powder onto her wound. It seemed to be in a bit of pain, Yun Ruoleng took a deep breath, and furrowed his brows as he tried to struggle free. Zhu Lan was shocked, she extended her hand and pressed on Yun Ruoleng''s sleeping points, and seeing that although Yun Ruoleng was frowning, she did not move her body, and heaved a sigh of relief, and continued applying the medicine.


    The imperial physician left behind a prescription and Huang Tu left. However, he did not do so. Instead, he sat down on the balcony, gloomily looking at the members of the Raging Flame Squad. They just looked at them without saying anything. The members of the Raging Flames Squadron just stood there with their heads down, not daring to make a sound.


    Zhu Lan wiped the sweat on his forehead as he walked out. Just as he stepped out of the room, he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and he subconsciously glanced at the man who was sitting high up on the floor.


    "Your servant has been negligent in today''s matter. If you want to punish me, then punish me!" Zhu Lan slowly kneeled down. He knew that it would be difficult to make people submit to him if he did not make an example out of them today.


    The Phoenix Diagram only glanced at Zhu Lan slightly, and did not say anything wrong. It was as if the world had frozen, and only until a weak sound came from the room did the Phoenix Diagram take action.


    "Today''s matter shall be investigated thoroughly by the Flame Artillery Squadron. We order you all to find the culprit within three days. If you find out, then forget it! If you cannot find it, then receive twice the penalty! " With that, Huang Tu stood up and walked into the room.


    The weak sound just now was made by Yun Ruoleng. Huang Tu walked in and saw that the person on the bed did not show any signs of waking up, but her entire body was writhing, as if she was extremely uncomfortable. Or perhaps it was because of the wound, in short, she was not able to sleep soundly at all.

 C340

    As if he had found his own safety, Yun Ruoleng tightly held onto Feng Tu''s hand. Phoenix Diagram was startled, the corners of his mouth slowly raised up. But in the next second, Huang Tu had the urge to throw Yun Ruoleng out.


    Maybe he was just sleeping soundly, Yun Ruoleng murmured while holding onto Huang Tu: "Xin, thank you for saving me."


    Phoenix Diagram''s body trembled, his smiling face was so dark that it dripped with water. Yun Ruoleng''s words kept appearing in his mind.


    Jun Qingshang saved her!


    It was Jun Qingshang who saved her!


    In anger, Huang Tu pulled his hand back and wiped his hand with it in disdain.


    Zhu Lan knelt at the door, watched as Phoenix Diagram stormed in and out of the room, and curiously glanced at the situation in the room. There was no sound from inside. It could be said that the emperor was angry because he was sulking. The person on the bed was unconscious, so he didn''t know what had happened.


    Having followed the emperor for so many years, this was the first time he saw him have such an expression. Zhu Lan silently sighed in his heart.


    "The hero feels sorry for the beautiful woman." Wasn''t the emperor the same as well? After passing through the myriad flowers, His Majesty, who never got involved with anything, finally sunk in.


    Before he left, he had only instructed Zhu Lan to take good care of Yun Ruoleng; the rest of his words were not spoken. This was completely inconsistent with his actions.


    Zhu Lan was even more curious about Yun Ruoleng who was sleeping soundly, what did she do to make His Majesty so angry?


    Zhu Lan''s curiosity was also useless. After the Phoenix Diagram left, Yun Ruoleng slept soundly and didn''t twist his body to speak anymore. As a result, Zhu Lan stayed by his bedside the whole night without being able to get the answer he wanted, and couldn''t help but feel a little disappointed.


    The next day was a rainy day, and when he woke up early, the rain was pouring down outside his window. Zhu Lan was speechless as he looked at the weather, although the small kitchen did not need to be soaked in rain, but if they wanted to give Yun Ruoleng nourishment, they had to go to the big kitchen. With such a heavy rain, most likely they would need to use dry clothes or get soaked in the rain, not to mention eating well, they would not even be able to bring back the medicine.


    Who would not be troubled by such a thing?


    "Zhu Lan!" The first thing Yun Ruoleng saw when she woke up was that she was in bed. If it wasn''t for her body being a little weak and the wound feeling a little painful, she would have thought that she had dreamt of death and exhaustion last night, and softly called Zhu Lan to ask her about it.


    Zhu Lan heard the sound and took a few steps forward. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was about to get out of bed, his footsteps unconsciously quickened: "Miss should still not get out of bed.


    "How is it so fragile?" Yun Ruoleng could feel the current state of her body. Because of the exhaustion of her Shaman Energy, the rate of healing of her wounds had slowed down by a lot, causing her to feel extremely uncomfortable.


    Zhu Lan was not at ease with her, he extended a hand to support her arm, and said while walking: "Miss, what happened last night? When the Emperor returned with you in his arms, his entire body was covered in blood.


    "Last night ¡­" Yun Ruoleng frowned, her phoenix eyes darkened: "Last night, a black shadow suddenly appeared at the window, no one noticed him, and I ran out to chase after him. However, I didn''t expect to enter into a strange array at a place in the rear mountains that was about to enter the small forest, so I used all of my strength ¡­ I don''t know what happened after that. Oh right, did you say that I was saved by Huang Tu? "


    "Yes." Zhu Lan hesitated, but still nodded. Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s puzzled expression, he suddenly had doubts in his heart. Could it be that he obtained the wrong information? Wasn''t it a girl I saved?


    Yun Ruoleng did not speak and with Zhu Lan''s support, he sat back on the bed. His mind was still thinking about the two beautiful eyes s he had seen last night, and the moment he almost could not hold on any longer, he was like a god ¡­


    Yun Ruoleng suddenly stood up, because his body was weak, the moment he stood up, he fell onto the bed.


    "Miss ¡­" Zhu Lan frowned: "Your body has not recovered yet, it''s best not to go through intense exercise. If there''s anything you want, this servant will take it for you."


    Yun Ruoleng rubbed his forehead that was in pain, and waved his hand at Zhu Lan: "Open the window, I want to see the scenery outside."


    Zhu Lan replied and opened the window at the side. The rain that formed a curtain under the eaves made Zhu Lan subconsciously frown. Yun Ruoleng frowned, the rain might not stop anytime soon.


    "Although it''s summer, it''s still very cold. The imperial physician said that you can''t blow the wind." Zhu Lan closed the window, and after putting on a cloak for Yun Ruoleng, he said: "The girl who brought you breakfast today has not come back yet. If you''re hungry, you should eat some snacks to rest your belly."


    Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, and said snappily: "When did I become so delicate? Since there is still no breakfast, I will meditate for a while. "


    Zhu Lan nodded slightly and stood to the side to protect her. Yun Ruoleng sat cross legged on the bed, and quickly opened his dantian to absorb the spirit energy around him. Maybe because of the lack of spirit energy in his body, the moment he opened his dantian, it was like a rain that had fallen, greedily absorbing the sweet rain.


    Zhu Lan stood at the side, the expression on his face became even weirder, seeing the surrounding Spirit Qi rush into Yun Ruoleng''s body like a spring, Yun Ruoleng himself had a different reaction, his body covered with a layer of gold light.


    Zhu Lan had never seen anyone cultivate to such a state.


    At that moment, Yun Ruoleng only felt his entire body being at ease, he could feel the spirit energy in the spiritual altar turning into gold, and in the blink of an eye, it was about to spill out. Yun Ruoleng wanted to stop, but he realized that the Ling Tai Acupoint was not listening to him.


    "Puchi", Yun Ruoleng levelled up.


    Zhu Lan''s eyes were wide open as he looked at the person who was still meditating on the bed in disbelief. Zhu Lan shook her head. Although the magicians she had met didn''t have golden power, they were still yellow in color, and their cultivation speed was as fast as lightning. There were only a few who had become Great Mages in ten years.


    However, this person had only spent three months to become a Grand Warlock. She had been watching over him for the past three months.


    "Puchi", before Zhu Lan could react, Yun Ruoleng levelled up once again.


    She had entered the realm of Grand Warlock not long ago, and was only at the elementary level. Now that her spiritual core had been exhausted, her strength had risen by two ranks, at a speed that no one had ever been able to achieve before.


    Zhu Lan thought that things like this would stop just like that, but that was not the case. After experiencing life and death situations this time, coupled with a baptism the night before yesterday, she felt that the rate at which she was absorbing spirit energy was increasing.


    With the sounds of levelling up four times in a row, the golden light aura around Yun Ruoleng''s body dimmed slowly. Zhu Lan was already so scared that her jaw dropped in shock, and after seeing the light aura around her disappear, she carefully waved her hand in front of Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrows and gently opened her eyes. Her phoenix eyes had a layer of gold on them, making her seem even more bewitching.

 C341

    Zhu Lan was shocked, thinking that something was wrong with Yun Ruoleng''s body. He could no longer care about the rain outside, and rushed out.


    "Bamboo ¡­" Yun Ruoleng''s hand grabbed onto empty air, and she could not help but frown. After being promoted to a whole new level, she could clearly feel that something was reviving in her body.


    And this thing... She couldn''t explain it herself.


    Yun Ruoleng used his hands to cover his neck, and that black and strange bead suddenly became boiling hot after he consecutively broke through level 4. When Yun Ruoleng removed her from his neck, he did not discover anything strange about her, and he couldn''t help but frown, as he had a feeling that this bead was somehow related to him.


    Not long after Zhu Lan left, he walked into the room soaked in sweat. Behind him was a white bearded man with a medicine box hanging from his body, Yun Ruoleng did not even need to guess who that person was.


    "Doctor Jiang, hurry and take a look for the young lady." Zhu Lan was extremely anxious, he looked at Yun Ruoleng who was on the bed and asked suspiciously: "I wonder if continuous improvement will be harmful to your body or cause you to become invisible, quickly take a look."


    Doctor Jiang used his half-wet sleeves to wipe the water droplets on his face. As he put down the medicine box, he took out the medicine pillow and slowly walked towards Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng "puchi" sounds of laughter rang out as he glared at Zhu Lan in rebuke, "Only your emperor knows of my current situation, how could this imperial physician investigate it?"


    "This servant understands." Zhu Lan said in a huff: "I am just worried about your injuries, if I keep levelling up, I am afraid my injuries will be affected."


    Yun Ruoleng moved his arm, he felt that his injured arm was no longer painful, but the movement made him feel sore. Doctor Jiang thought for a while and asked: "Does young lady feel uncomfortable anywhere?"


    "Nope." Without even thinking about it, Yun Ruoleng immediately shook her head. She was currently very comfortable, she didn''t feel the slightest bit of discomfort.


    "Then I''ll take the girl''s pulse."


    Yun Ruoleng did not argue and extended his hand, Zhu Lan anxiously placed the muslin handkerchief on her wrist, and Doctor Jiang started to feel her pulse.


    "How is it?" Seeing him frown, Yun Ruoleng thought that something was wrong with his body, and asked anxiously.


    Doctor Jiang looked at her with a strange expression. He didn''t speak in a hurry, and after a while, he slowly let go of her hand. He stood up and cupped his hands respectfully. "It''s just that I don''t understand, your injury ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng raised his hand and stopped Doctor Jiang from speaking. As a Great Mage, if he did not even have this little bit of healing ability, how could he still be considered a Great Mage? Of course, she would not tell Doctor Jiang these words. She looked at Zhu Lan and continued to meditate.


    Zhu Lan made a gesture of invitation towards Doctor Jiang, "Please follow me."


    After saying that, Doctor Jiang followed Zhu Lan and left Yun Ruoleng''s room. Yun Ruoleng slowly opened her eyes. What appeared in her eyes was not surprise, but excitement, she knew that the Great Mage''s healing abilities were strong, not only to herself, but to others as well.


    After entering the Great Magus World, every increase in rank would increase one''s healing ability. Now that he had raised his healing ability by four levels, healing minor injuries would not be a problem at all.


    After Zhu Lan pulled Doctor Jiang out, he started to ask, "Is Miss really okay?"


    "Young lady''s body is still weak, it cannot be compared to the past. This is no longer something that can be cured with pills and pills, it can only be recuperated." Doctor Jiang looked at Zhu Lan who seemed to be deep in thought, and pulled her sleeves and asked: "What miraculous medicine did this girl of yours eat? "All the wounds on his body healed overnight. Others would only find it weird if I said that."


    "As a Grand Warlock, it isn''t surprising that her healing abilities are stronger." Zhu Lan was not surprised by this, he only smiled and sent Doctor Jiang out of the Warm Phoenix Pavilion.


    The strong gale had not rested since last night. After Zhu Lan sent Doctor Jiang away, he met the strong gale who acted in a hurry midway. After the two of them looked at each other, Liefeng brushed past her and left.


    Zhu Lan couldn''t help but frown when he looked at the back of the girl who was walking away. The reason for the assassination attempt on the girl might not be found out within three days, so the black-robed man had disappeared without a trace.


    The Phoenix Diagram had returned to his study after leaving the Phoenix Warm Pavilion last night and had not slept for the entire night. His heart was restless and restless. Furthermore, it had rained in the middle of the night and had not stopped even now.


    "Your majesty, according to what the young lady has described, the black-robed man''s physique is similar to hers. In addition to that, a woman who can easily avoid the hidden guards and patrolling guards, as well as formation array techniques, must be someone who is extremely familiar with the estate. That means that this person must be within the estate. "


    After a night of investigation, Liefeng finally came to a conclusion, "There aren''t many people with such capability in the palace. Currently, I only know one from the Lotus Garden that fits all these requirements."


    Fu Qinglian? Feng Tu gave a charming smile and nodded towards the strong wind: "Send people to watch over the Lotus Garden."


    "Yes sir!" Zephyr cupped his fist in response, and then retreated out of the room.


    Feng Tu leaned his head against the chair and thought about something. Suddenly, the corner of his mouth raised to form a smile, but his eyes were filled with coldness. He got up from the chair and walked outside with large strides.


    Just as Ah Zheng was about to enter the door with a stack of memorials in his arms, he saw the Phoenix Diagram walking out. The two of them almost bumped into each other, but luckily Ah Zheng reacted in time.


    "It''s good that you came." Phoenix Diagram glanced at the imperial report in Ah Zheng''s hands and said, "Leave the things here first, come with me to the Lotus Garden for a walk."


    Although Ah Zheng was puzzled, it was raining outside at this time, why would they go to the Lotus Garden?


    Phoenix Diagram did not have any intention of explaining anything to him, seeing that he was stunned, he immediately patted his shoulder and left.


    Ah Zheng didn''t have time to think about the reason. He passed the imperial report in his hand to the guard at the door, turned around, and ran after him.


    "Master, it''s raining so heavily, why are we going to the Lotus Garden?" A Zha Zheng who was following behind Huang Si asked in a low voice.


    Everyone had seen Fu Qinglian doing many things for them. They had always thought that Fu Qinglian would be his Queen, and with Fu Qinglian''s gentle personality, she was highly respected by the Minister of Civil and Martial Arts.


    But who would have thought that this woman was so scheming that even he was afraid of her. She seemed gentle like water, elegant like a lotus, but her heart was only the size of a sesame seed.


    Today, Liefeng suspects someone else. He will still ponder for a moment, but this person is her ¡­ Naturally, he did not hesitate to believe.


    Of course, what Fu Qinglian said was unknown to him. In his eyes, Fu Qinglian was an elegant and pure existence. The smile on the Phoenix Diagram puzzled Ah Zheng.

 C342

    The two of them arrived at the Lotus Courtyard one after the other. The summer rain stopped as soon as they said it would, which was true. The moment the two of them stepped into the Lotus Courtyard, the rain had already lessened.


    On the bridge below the pavilion, a woman stood with an umbrella. Due to the rain, she appeared hazy and indistinct.


    Huang Tu was standing at the side of the bridge and did not rush over. Instead, he peeked his head out from behind him and looked at the people opposite him. His eyes lit up: "Master, that is Miss Fu''s lady, Qing Ye."


    "Yes." Feng Tu narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly. He was also stunned when he saw the girl in front of him. When Fu Qinglian saw that he had arrived, she was definitely the first to show her gentleness and consideration, instead of sending a servant girl to wait for him.


    From this point of view, Fu Qinglian was definitely involved in this matter.


    "Aren''t we coming?" Ah Zheng seemed to be in a hurry, this surprised Huang Tu, and he turned to look at him.


    Being stared at, Ah Zheng scratched his head in embarrassment. Huang Tu laughed lightly and joked: "Don''t tell me you have taken a fancy to someone else?"


    Ah Zheng was stunned for a moment. When he recovered, he immediately explained, "No, no, I just think that Miss Qing Ye has good intentions."


    "What?" With his hands behind his back, the smile on Phoenix Diagram''s face became even more pronounced.


    A Zheng had been misunderstood by his master, but his mouth was still so dumb that he couldn''t say anything for a while. The Phoenix Diagram was extremely fast, in a blink of an eye, it was already in front of Qing Ye.


    Qing Ye bowed towards the Phoenix Diagram, and nodded towards Ah Zheng with a smile on his face. "Greetings, your majesty."


    "What about your Miss?" The phoenix image seemed to be looking at its surroundings unintentionally, and it did not notice anything wrong as it slowly spoke.


    "Miss said that it was raining today. Coincidentally, there were new bamboo shoots growing in the forest at the back of the mountain, so she went to the back of the mountain." Qing Ye spoke very fluently, and if one was not careful, it was impossible to tell that she was nervous at all.


    Huang Tu''s gaze fell on her handkerchief, and after a long while he turned to Ah Zheng and said: "It seems that we did not come at the right time."


    "Then I''ll go down and bring the imperial reports over?" This time, Ah Zheng was enlightened, as if he understood the meaning of the Phoenix Diagram, and asked.


    Huang Tu''s eyes lit up: "That''s good too, this way we can also taste the taste of the bamboo shoots that have experienced the trials and tribulations. "Let''s see what sort of delicious food Miss Fu can pick in the rain."


    Qing Ye was shocked. He wanted to refuse, but there was no reason to. He could only bring the two into the living room.


    After Zhu Lan sent Doctor Jiang away, only after eating breakfast did Yun Ruoleng realize that the rain had stopped. The strong wind that went out to investigate had returned at this time, and its face did not have the depressed look it had in the morning. Instead, it was filled with energy, as if this matter had been resolved.


    "Strong wind!" Zhu Lan shouted to the strong wind below him who was enjoying the cool air: "Since you''ve finished your investigation, you should give me an explanation!"


    Zephyr slowly opened his eyes, and looked at Zhu Lan with a bit of disdain: "Matters are left to the emperor to decide, I don''t know how the results will be."


    "So it''s like that ¡­" The joy in Zhu Lan''s heart instantly disappeared as he sighed regretfully.


    Yun Ruoleng walked out of the room, and the phoenix eyes that carried a golden light just happened to meet the strong wind''s gaze.


    Zephyr sat up straight, and looked at Yun Ruoleng with an astonished face, his arm trembling slightly: "You ¡­ "You are ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng blinked innocently at Strong Gale. Seeing that he had only said half a sentence and had to turn around to leave, it seemed that he had something to say, but had no choice but to hide it. Yun Ruoleng did not miss the excitement that flashed past his eyes just now. That look was the same as when Doctor Bai saw him, could it be that he recognized Black Robe?


    "Halt!" When Yun Ruoleng thought of this, she became even more impatient to see Black Robe. That fellow, who was also a teacher and a friend, had disappeared for a long time. She now had a lot of questions to ask him, but he was not there.


    From the looks of it, the Strong Gale was a good way out. Yun Ruoleng smiled.


    Although his expression could not be seen with his back facing Yun Ruoleng, Yun Ruoleng could tell from the changes in his body that he was very excited at the moment. His fingers were clenched into a fist, as if he was suppressing this kind of excitement.


    "Follow me in!" Yun Ruoleng did not look at Zhu Lan''s puzzled expression, and returned back to his room after instructing her.


    Strong Gale stood below the veranda with hesitation. Zhu Lan took a step forward and reminded him with good intentions: "Miss doesn''t like to wait for people, you should go in!"


    Liefeng took a long sigh, as if he had made up his mind. He turned around and entered the room, closing the door behind him.


    "Who are you? Who am I? " Yun Ruoleng went straight to the point, speaking frankly yet not understanding what was being said.


    Liefeng hesitated for a while, then said, "You are the future Queen of Yue Ling, your subordinate is the secret guard of the Emperor."


    "I''m sure you understand. That''s not the answer I want." The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised slightly, revealing a light smile, and her golden phoenix eyes became even more gorgeous and enchanting.


    Zephyr''s body trembled, his expression became much more serious, and after his eyes met with Yun Ruoleng''s golden eyes, he shook his head: "I have only seen these eyes, but I don''t know who she is. Ten years ago, there was a woman with the same phoenix eyes as you. She was also a witch, and it is likely that no one in this world has ever reached such a high level of magic. She was the one who saved me by tearing open any space. "


    "You''re lying!" The light in Yun Ruoleng''s eyes darkened slightly. "It is true that she saved you, but do you know who she is? The first time you saw me, I knew that you knew this face. But you''re looking at someone else through that face, and that means you know the person who looks like me. "


    Liefeng didn''t say anything, he just stood there quietly with his head bowed.


    Yun Ruoleng did not force him. The two of them sat and stood, and fell into an endless silence.


    After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the rain had completely stopped. However, Fu Qinglian did not return, and Huang Tu was not in a hurry either. He gave Ah Zheng a look and discovered that the boy had been staring at Qing Ye the entire time. Qing Ye was already a beauty to begin with. His bright and spirited gaze made his little face redden and even more coquettish.


    Huang Tu unhappily tapped the report in his hand against Ah Zheng, who let out a cry and realized that he had lost his composure. Fortunately, Huang Tu opened his mouth to cover up the awkwardness: "This rain fell for quite a few hours, it was slippery! "Go and help Miss Fu."


    Ah Zheng did not dare to delay any longer. As soon as Huang Tu finished speaking, he ran out. With such speed, even Phoenix Diagram was surprised. He muttered in his heart: "This boy has completely forgotten about etiquette."


    Qing Ye''s face turned from red to pale as he bowed. "This servant will help as well."


    Huang Tu nodded his head, without raising his head he continued to read the imperial reports in his hands. When Qing Lian was about to leave the room, he suddenly said: "The crime of bullying the monarch is a capital offense, you had better think about it."

 C343

    "¡­" Qing Ye stopped, his handsome face alternated between shades of red and white, while his lips changed color.


    Even though the Phoenix Diagram was sitting behind her, he could still clearly see her body movements. Knowing that she was hesitating, he didn''t try to force her.


    Qing Ye only stayed for a little longer before he resolutely left. Huang Tu nodded in satisfaction at her actions. This little girl was still loyal, she had just followed the wrong master.


    Huang Tu sighed softly and called out to the air: "Yu Yang!"


    A black wind blew, and Yu Yang, who was wearing a navy blue robe, stood in front of Phoenix Diagram and cupped his hands: "Miss Fu is indeed in the forest behind the mountain, but she is not digging bamboo shoots and is training. From the looks of her face, she seems to be injured."


    "If I stay in the Lotus Garden, how could I be injured when there were no murders or fires, nor any kidnappings?" Feng Tu sneered and looked at Yu Yang''s stuttering appearance. He could not help but wrinkle his brows: "What else do you have?"


    "Not far away from the entrance of the forest, there was a sharp sword mark. Furthermore, there was a wound on Miss Fu''s chest. This subordinate thinks that someone must have saved the lady before us last night." "And if this person is able to appear in time, I''m afraid ¡­"


    "You don''t have to worry about this matter. First, keep an eye on Fu Qinglian. This matter is related to him!" , ah, Jun Qingshang! In the end you couldn''t help showing up in front of her? It looks like I can''t keep you any longer.


    Yu Yang did not know why the Phoenix Diagram was so angry, the aura around his body had changed. He did not dare to stay any longer, and with a grunt of acknowledgement, he left.


    The Phoenix Diagram was no longer in the mood to read the imperial reports. Throwing the imperial reports in its hands away, it got up and walked outside. The eunuch waiting at the door consciously helped the Phoenix Diagram collect the items.


    "Miss?"


    "Miss Fu?"


    After entering the forest, Ah Zheng and Qing Ye started to search for Fu Qinglian. Strangely enough, once they entered the forest, they could no longer make a detour. Ah Zheng followed behind Qing Ye with his head held behind his back.


    "Miss?" Qing Ye continued to call out.


    Ah Zheng, who had no more strength left, leaned against a large tree and panted. He waved his hand behind Qing Ye, "Stop shouting, we did not manage to get out even after circling around. It seems like we have gotten lost."


    "The manor''s back mountain is only so big, how could we have gotten lost?" Qing Ye was not a fool. Although they were circling around in circles, she knew that they had already entered the Confusion Array. This array was meant to let them wander around in a certain area.


    "We can only wait for someone to save us." A Zheng did not refute Qing Ye''s words. He waved his hand and sat down on the ground. "My head is spinning around. I''m not leaving."


    Qing Ye crossed his arms in front of his chest and chuckled. "I say, what exactly have you been doing with the Emperor all these years? Why did he stop after a few laps? You''re not afraid of losing the face of those who practice martial arts? "


    "There''s no use in provoking him!" Although Ah Zheng was simple and honest, he did not have patience. He was the type of person who did not have patience. Walking a few laps was not tiring, but he was upset and did not want to leave.


    Qing Ye was too lazy to leave him. Seeing that he was unwilling to follow him, she heaved a sigh of relief. "Forget it, you can sit here. I''ll keep looking. "


    "Yes." A-Zheng didn''t even think about anything else as he leaned against the tree, holding a piece of Dogtail Grass in his mouth.


    Qing Ye''s eyes flashed with a mocking smile. With a flash, he disappeared into the forest with a few steps. And just like that, A-Zheng was abandoned by the goddess he yearned for.


    It was already evening when A Zheng was rescued, but that was all later.


    The atmosphere inside the Warm Phoenix Pavilion had become extremely strange, especially the way Zephyr looked at Yun Ruoleng from time to time. That gaze contained too much that Yun Ruoleng didn''t even know how to read it for a short period of time.


    "Have you thought about it?" In the end, Yun Ruoleng still could not hold his cool, and after drinking a mouthful of tea, he slowly spoke out.


    The black eyes of the Zephyr Guild flashed with a golden light, and the surroundings of the black eyes were filled with gold. Although the black eyes were different from Yun Ruoleng''s, the color of the eyes was still somewhat similar. Yun Ruoleng was shocked, his finger trembling as he pointed at the strong gale: "This ¡­"


    "Golden Eyes - a representative of the Snow Clan of the West Swamp Continent." Zephyr took in a deep breath, and the golden pupils instantly disappeared. He did not care about Yun Ruoleng''s identity, and sat opposite of her and spoke slowly.


    "Yue Ling and Heaven''s Enlightenment belong to the Eastern Swamp Continent, and one must pass through the Abyss Sea in order to go to the West Swamp Continent. That sea area is extremely terrifying, basically, there are nine out of ten people that would die, and even the one that survived would not be able to pass through the Takla Desert after the Abyss Sea. "As a result, there are very few people who can go to the West Swamp Continent, and there is one type of person who can go to any continent as he pleases ¡­"


    "Wait!" Yun Ruoleng frowned, and suddenly interrupted Lie Feng''s words: "Does any continent mean that there are a lot of continents in this world?"


    "Something like that!" Liefeng seemed to have fallen into a memory as a smile appeared on his face, "I can do this once I become a Magus of the Sorcerer World."


    "But it''s not in the books." The more Yun Ruoleng thought about it, the more he felt that history books could not be completely believed, and actually did not even have such an important record.


    "The East Pond Continent is a continent where magic power is scarce. Above it, the Cloud Fall Continent and the Jade Net Continent are much stronger than the East Pond Continent, and the West Pond Continent is the continent with the densest magic power. Thus, many Magi, upon reaching the realm of Grand Warlock, would wish to pass through the Abyss Sea and head for Caesar. Unfortunately, it''s not that easy. "


    "You were brought here by the Sorcerer?" After Yun Ruoleng asked this question, she was somewhat regretful. When did she become so gossipy!


    Liefeng held a glass of water for himself and said slowly, "There are many Magi in the West Lake Continent. The entire continent is ruled by Deities Templar and the highest ruler is called Senior Magus. This person''s cultivation must be at least at the Sorcerer level. A Senior Magus had once been born in the Snow Clan. Although she was a woman, she had the kindness of all living things. She had used her divine light to light up the earth and give the people a quiet home. "It''s a pity that good people don''t live long, she ¡­"


    Lie Feng choked back his words and smiled reluctantly at Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng knew that maybe this woman had a deep meaning to him, so he did not bring it up again, and changed the topic: "Earlier, you said that all Snow Clan members had gold eyes? "But I''m not from the Caesar Continent, and even more so not from the Snow Clan."


    "That''s what I want to ask too." Liefeng suddenly became excited, he extended his hand and tightly gripped Yun Ruoleng''s jade fingers: "Why do you have the appearance of a 80% Senior Magus and the pair of golden eyes? Aren''t you the seven daughters of the Heavenly Mystery Realm?"

 C344

    "How would I know?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, he wanted to retract his hand, but he was not strong enough, he could only say helplessly: "I also want to know the reason, and I was born my mother, so there is no need to suspect that I am the daughter of some great witch."


    "You want to be her daughter with such a talent? "What a joke!" Liefeng sneered and said, "A Senior Magus is a Senior Magus at the age of seven. At the age of eleven, he became the youngest Magus King of the West Swamp Continent and entered the God Transforming World at the age of sixteen. You''re only seventeen this year, and you''re only a Grand Warlock! "


    Yun Ruoleng was so shocked that his jaw dropped, "This ¡­ "So powerful."


    Liefeng nodded without any hesitation, and a trace of pride flashed across his eyes. More accurately, this Senior Magus was his idol. Looking at his expression, Yun Ruoleng could not help but ask, "You come from the Western Region, then why don''t you have any Shaman Energy?"


    Liefeng''s face froze as he glared viciously at Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at him innocently and muttered in his heart, "It can''t be that he has touched this guy''s bottom line, right?" If that happened, it would be a disaster. After all, this guy already saw her as a thousand times worse.


    Fortunately, the strong wind was not really angry, only glaring at her before he got up and walked out. The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth stiffened, he didn''t know what to say about this person''s temper.


    Liefeng suddenly stopped in his tracks when he arrived at the door of the room. He turned around and looked at Yun Ruoleng''s golden eyes as he frowned, "It''s best for you to cover up your golden eyes, or else you''ll get yourself killed."


    "How?" Yun Ruoleng thought that if the Golden-eyed had walked out of the door, it would definitely have scared people away. Most people did not know the origins of the Golden-Eye, but he was afraid that he would be treated as a monster and set on fire.


    Zephyr thought for a moment, then returned to Yun Ruoleng''s side, "You are already a Great Mage, you should learn the skill to hide your presence. There are fewer Mages in the East Lake Continent, and there are only a handful with your cultivation level, there are no such skills amongst the Mages. However, dark Magi have stronger powers. You can ask the emperor, he can conceal his power. "


    "Hmm?" Didn''t you say that it was very rare? How did the Phoenix Diagram know?


    Liefeng didn''t give her an explanation, and then turned around and left. The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched. He himself seemed to be concealing it, why didn''t he explain it to him?


    At A Zheng''s position, he frowned. This brat is actually sleeping here! They did not even know how dangerous the situation was!


    "Master ¡­" This grandpa has come. " Ah Zheng was happy and crawled up from the ground saying, "Are you here to save Ah Zheng? "Ah Zheng can''t go out. Qing Ye and I can''t go out."


    Feng Tu narrowed his phoenix eyes and looked around before saying unhappily: "I am very clear that you won''t be able to leave. As for her ¡­"


    In fact, Huang Xuan didn''t want to attack Ah Zheng, but who told him to trust others that easily? In order to give him a reminder, Huang Tu said without mercy: "I left a long time ago!"


    "He left a long time ago?" Ah Zheng was stunned, then he thought that maybe the emperor made a mistake. When he looked at the Phoenix Diagram again, he became even more determined: "Impossible! We''ll come in together and walk around in circles together. If she can go out, she probably won''t abandon me, right? "


    "If it were me, I would do the same." Bringing this idiot along would only let him know Fu Qinglian''s secret. This Confusion Formation might have been created by that little maid in order to waste time and drag on until Fu Qinglian was injured. At that time, even if he was the emperor, he wouldn''t dare to do anything to her master. As expected of Fu Qinglian''s personal maid.


    Ah Zheng was shocked, he took a step closer to Phoenix City and laughed heartily: "Master, you can''t be so ruthless, right? All these years, even if your subordinate didn''t do anything, I must have had to put in a lot of effort! You can''t just throw your subordinate away like that, right? "


    At that moment, he was in no mood to talk back to Yun Ruoleng. If he wanted to give Yun Ruoleng an explanation, he had to find the person he was looking for now.


    A''Zheng, who was following closely behind, turned left and right, and in less than a cup of tea''s time, walked out of the maze. He saw a maid in green carrying a bamboo basket, and a woman in white beside him.


    Huang Tidemark''s eyes narrowed once more. Fu Qinglian''s current condition seemed to be better.


    It seemed that he was still a step too late.


    Hearing the commotion behind them, the two people who were busy with their work stopped what they were doing and turned around to look. Fu Qinglian did not wear a veil. Her delicate and exquisite face had a pair of almond-shaped eyes shining with starlight. She did not care that the rain was wet. She bowed towards Phoenix Diagram and said, "Your Majesty, the road is slippery and humid. You must be careful of your feet!"


    "I heard that you''ve come to harvest bamboo shoots. Have you had any gains?" This woman''s excuse was still so popular. The bamboo shoots at this time of the year were delicious, but it didn''t mean that a young lady like her would be so envious.


    Fu Qinglian shook her head in disappointment. "The rain just now was too heavy. I only managed to find a few."


    Huang Tu nodded, he extended his finger and said: "Let''s go! It''s better to just let the servants do this sort of thing. "


    "Yes sir!" Unconcealable excitement could be seen in Fu Qinglian''s eyes as she shyly lowered her head after handing her hand over to the Phoenix Diagram. At a place where she couldn''t see, Phoenix Diagram couldn''t help but roll his eyes. Other than her, all the other women were the same!


    The eyes of a lover were like the eyes of a sphinx, while the eyes of a single lover felt that the other person was good in every way. The Phoenix Diagram showed Yun Ruoleng to be like this.


    As he walked, he used his Shaman Energy to check the condition of Fu Qinglian''s body. Just as he had thought, there were no signs of injuries at all. It seemed it would be impossible to catch her this time.


    What the Phoenix Diagram did not see was that Fu Qinglian, who was walking with her head lowered, had instantly turned deathly pale. Fortunately, the Phoenix Diagram had only checked once before withdrawing her Shaman Energy. Her complexion had also improved greatly.


    As the two walked out of the forest hand in hand, a figure rushed towards them. Phoenix Diagram subconsciously released his grip on Fu Qinglian''s small hand and stood with his hands behind his back. "What is there to be so panicked about?"


    "To ¡­ to Master, miss, she ¡­"


    "What''s wrong?" Phoenix Diagram did not have the time to listen as he left the forest in a flash.


    Fu Qinglian was startled. Her delicate face began to twist as she watched the person disappear into thin air. A trace of killing intent flashed across her watery almond eyes. However, Qing Ye and A Zheng, who was chasing after her, did not notice it.


    As soon as he left the forest, his first reaction was to ask, "Where is grandpa?"


    Fu Qinglian raised her hand and pointed towards the southeast, "The Warm Phoenix Pavilion. It seems that something has happened to that lady."


    Ah Zheng didn''t dare to stay any longer. He said goodbye and ran after them.


    Fu Qinglian heaved a sigh of relief as her body involuntarily fell backwards. Luckily, Qing Ye was quick to catch her.

 C345

    Before Phoenix Diagram could finish speaking, it had already run to the Phoenix Warm Pavilion. However, when it saw that there was a certain someone in the courtyard playing around with a few maids, its expression changed.


    "Ruo Er, your body isn''t fully recovered yet, how did you come out?" Huang Tu was angry at first, but when he thought about how this woman had grabbed his hand and refused to let go while talking about other men, he felt infuriated. However, when he heard Zhu Lan''s anxious voice, he did not feel any anger anymore.


    However ¡­ Feng Tu looked at the golden color in Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes and narrowed his eyes, "What''s going on with you?"


    "I don''t know. I reached the fourth rank early in the morning, and I opened my eyes and ended up like this." However, although it is a bit strange, it can be seen even more clearly. " Yun Ruoleng waved away the servants and sat down on the ground. He sighed softly and said: "Don''t you have a skill to hide your Qi? Teach me! "


    Huang Tu glared at her unhappily. She only told him about such a huge matter now. If she did not want to learn concealing techniques, she would not tell him!


    Yun Ruoleng played with his fingers, as though he was in no hurry to do so. This scene made Phoenix Diagram even more infuriated. She was certain that he would give it to her, wasn''t it?


    "No!" Huang Tu snorted coldly, he was just not as good as her!


    "Then go!" Yun Ruoleng was not courteous and waved his hand to chase them away.


    Zhu Lan who was chasing after them stared dumbstruck at this scene. Although he did not know what the two of them were talking about, he could tell that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between them! In order to prevent himself from getting accidentally hurt, Zhu Lan carefully retreated.


    Phoenix Fairy Beauty never thought that Yun Ruoleng would treat her like this, and with such ease. However, Yun Ruoleng acted as if it had nothing to do with him, and continued to play with his fingers. Huang Tu was so angry that the corners of his mouth were twitching, but he couldn''t get a single glance from her.


    "How much do you remember from last night?" After calming his mind, he decided to change the topic. He wanted to confirm if she remembered that Jun Qingshang saved her last night.


    "Last night!" Yun Ruoleng tsk-tsked twice. "There are quite a few people here who want this wangfei''s life, and the formation is even weirder. If it weren''t for someone saving me, I''m afraid that only my corpse would be left today."


    "The one who saved you is Jun Qingshang, right?" Huang Tu didn''t like her talking to him as if it had nothing to do with him.


    Yun Ruoleng shook her head, her golden eyes not changing in the slightest, "No, it''s a very ordinary looking black-clothed man, who seems to be very familiar with the black-cloaked man. After stopping her, the black-cloaked man left, and I don''t know what happened afterwards.


    Phoenix Diagram looked at her for a long time, seeing that she still did not seem to have anything to do with him, he coldly snorted and stood up to leave: "We have only come to congratulate you on advancing four levels consecutively, getting closer and closer to your goal. "By the way, I''ll remind you that if you don''t reach the Wu sect within the next month, no one will be able to save you.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face darkened. Was he finally going to make his move?


    However, she was a little worried that Jun Qingshang would be suspected of coming here. Although she still hated him in her heart, she also knew that he had made this choice for the sake of his soldiers. As a king of a nation, he could not act on his emotions.


    Huang Tu walked out from the pavilion in a huff and glared at the signboard above him. This was not a place he should have come to. Every time he came here, he would be angered to death, and every time he came here, he would just rush over.


    Seeing that the Phoenix Diagram had been angered away again, Zhu Lan couldn''t help but give Yun Ruoleng a big thumbs up.


    Yun Ruoleng was upset that he did not get the skill he wanted, and just happened to see Zhu Lan''s hand gesture. He rolled his eyes at her in annoyance and got up to return to his room.


    "Miss, do you want to speak to the Emperor again?" Zhu Lan hurriedly chased after her. Knowing that she was hesitating, he asked her.


    Unexpectedly, Yun Ruoleng turned around and closed the door. Zhu Lan, who had caught up to him, almost had his head held tightly by the door. Zhu Lan, who was standing at the door, awkwardly coughed: "Miss?"


    "I want to cultivate, don''t disturb me!" Yun Ruoleng''s cold voice came out of the room, causing Zhu Lan to shrug her shoulders helplessly. In order for Yun Ruoleng to arrive whenever she was called, she didn''t go too far, she returned to her room and took out a basket for embroidery.


    As the sky gradually darkened, Yun Ruoleng''s room was closed for the entire day. When Zhu Lan saw the weather, he could not help but frown, put down his work, and walked to Yun Ruoleng''s door to knock: "Miss, it''s already late, do you need a bath?"


    "Come in!"


    Zhu Lan pushed the door open, the pitch black room suddenly lit up, and the candlestick in front of the bed lit up in an instant. Zhu Lan was shocked, and realised who the mastermind was.


    "You don''t have to be surprised by the fact that a magic power is transformed into a real Magus!"


    Yun Ruoleng withdrew his extended arm, got up from the bed, and casually straightened his clothes. Today, no one would even mention who the black-robed man was. It seemed like he would still have to go out tonight.


    After Zhu Lan helped Yun Ruoleng pack properly, he did not go out. This made Yun Ruoleng surprised and he could not help but look at her doubtfully: "Are you not going out?"


    "This servant doesn''t dare to be careless anymore." Zhu Lan did not forget the emperor''s reminder after she returned. If he lost her again, she would not be able to live.


    Yun Ruoleng was not happy. This Phoenix Diagram was clearly letting Zhu Lan monitor him! Besides, last night''s incident had just passed, who would come looking for trouble at this time? This was the safest time. There was no need to stand guard!


    "I did it for your own good. If I were to act like last time, I''m afraid I would go crazy." Zhu Lan had seen Huang Tu''s anxious look last night, when had a woman ever made him so nervous!


    Yun Ruoleng pointed at the door with a head full of black lines. "I promise, the next time I go out, I''ll definitely call all of you. But if someone else sleeps in the same room as me, I won''t be able to sleep!"


    Zhu Lan opened his mouth to refute, but was stopped by Yun Ruoleng''s cold gaze. Helpless, Zhu Lan really did not dare to stay there, he could only nod his head and leave. Yun Ruoleng heaved a sigh of relief. Huang Tu was acting as if he was protecting him, but someone with a discerning eye was able to see through his intentions. Yun Ruoleng would definitely not place his spy by his side!


    After Zhu Lan went out, he extinguished a few lamps at the corridor, leaving behind only a single lamp to illuminate it. The number of dark guards in the shadows increased by a large amount, Zhu Lan thought that this heavily guarded Phoenix''s Warm Pavilion would no longer be in the same situation as the last time.


    Defensive bandits could only defend against thieves that came their way. How could someone like Yun Ruoleng, who possessed the ability of teleportation, be able to catch one? In the dead of night, Yun Ruoleng was not asleep yet. A pair of phoenix eyes that carried a golden light slowly opened, quietly feeling the vegetation outside the door. When he realized that the hidden guards were also dozing off, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he disappeared in a flash.

    In the dense garden, Yun Ruoleng sat on the treetop and waited quietly for something to happen. At this time, a group of guards with lanterns as they patrolled the garden walked past the entrance, Yun Ruoleng mustered his strength, carefully observing every single one of them, when he suddenly saw Little Four who was at the back. This spot was not bad, and it was easy to leave the group.


    Yun Ruoleng also did not know what to do. Her body flashed, and once again, she appeared in the dense forest behind the back mountain, with another person beside her. The two of them were very close, and when they arrived at their destination, Yun Ruoleng released his hand, and Little Four looked at her in confusion, not saying a single word for a long time.


    "T-that ¡­" Yun Ruoleng scratched the corner of his clothes, his heart was in a mess and he did not know what to say.


    A pair of strong and powerful arms pulled the defenseless Yun Ruoleng into his embrace. Yun Ruoleng was startled, and rejected him with a push: "Let go of me, I have something to ask you!"


    "I''m not letting go!" It had already been two months since Jun Qingshang played the role of Little Four, but in this period of time, Yun Ruoleng had never been like this. He knew that if he wanted her to open her heart, this was the best time.


    The woman in front of him was not an ordinary woman, but a woman from the twenty-first century. She was a woman who did not need to rely on men to live an exciting life, how could she be convinced just by hugging?


    Yun Ruoleng pushed the distance between him and her, and his face turned ugly. Just as he was about to raise his head to speak, a kiss just happened to land on her pink lips: "I know you''re still angry, it''s been so long, let''s not talk about it, okay?"


    "How could I not mention it!" Yun Ruoleng sneered: "You threw me aside and my Yue Ling shouldn''t have come."


    "If I don''t come, who will save you?" Jun Qingshang unhappily poked her on the head: "Have you recovered? And what''s with your eyes? "


    Speaking of this, Yun Ruoleng didn''t know how to explain it, and could only crease his eyebrows slightly. He completely forgot that she was currently still in Jun Qingshang''s embrace.


    This golden pupil was truly strange. If it was used by those who wanted to use it, it would be another unavoidable conspiracy. Jun Qingshang waved his hand in front of Yun Ruoleng: "Give me your phoenix jade."


    Yun Ruoleng suspiciously took out a piece of phoenix jade from his waist and handed it over to Jun Qingshang: "This piece of jade is actually not very useful. There is no hidden witch technique, so this is all I can do for my eyes. Why don''t we just ignore it? "


    "A phoenix jade has its own concealment function. It''s just that you''re an idiot and don''t know how to use it." Jun Qingshang placed the phoenix jade back into Yun Ruoleng''s hands, and let her tightly clench it, "Use your power to feel its interior, you will understand now."


    Yun Ruoleng dubiously followed his instructions, and slowly infused his Shaman Energy into the phoenix jade. Every time he infused a bit of it into his brain, a set of Shaman Skills would flash past his mind, and after an unknown period of time, Yun Ruoleng''s forehead would be covered in sweat.


    The current Yun Ruoleng was in a terrible situation, this piece of jade was like a bottomless pit, constantly absorbing his power. At the beginning, the jade was still a little worried, trying to absorb it bit by bit, but only when he continuously imbued it into the jade did he realise that the jade did not have any effect on him at all.


    Fortunately, she was able to absorb a small amount of Shaman Energy while dealing damage at the same time, which prevented her from getting drained.


    "Ugh ¡­" In Yun Ruoleng''s mind, the sound of a child waking up suddenly appeared. She was shocked, as if she had forgotten where she was, her surroundings became pitch black.


    "Wow!" Suddenly, a gold light flashed past her body, and before Yun Ruoleng could react, it was all lit up by a beautiful young lady wearing a pink cheongsam, looking extremely adorable with the two braids on her head.


    Yun Ruoleng took a step back in fear and furrowed his brows slightly as he asked her, "Who are you?"


    "I am Feng Yu''s fairy. Feng Yu is me, and I am Feng Yu." The little girl blinked her big, watery eyes, and said mischievously to Yun Ruoleng.


    Her childish voice melted Yun Ruoleng''s cold heart, and he could not help but laugh: "So this is the inside of the Phoenix Jade?"


    "Something like that!" The little girl looked around and suddenly frowned. "Do you still have anything to eat?" So hungry! "


    Yun Ruoleng squinted his eyes dangerously, as he looked at her warily: "You''re almost absorbing all my Shaman Energy!"


    The little girl smiled awkwardly. "Sorry! It''s because I''ve been sleeping for too long, I''m really hungry. How about this, in the future, you give me food at regular intervals, and you can ask me any questions you have. "


    The little girl raised her head as she spoke, a smile hung on her tender face.


    Yun Ruoleng''s first reaction was that this girl would not be a liar, right? At such a young age, how much did he know?


    The little girl saw that she did not speak for a long time, and her face turned red, "Don''t underestimate me, I am a rare encyclopedia."


    Only now did Yun Ruoleng remember that Jun Qingshang had allowed him to infuse his own Shaman Energy into Feng Yu, and after he felt reassured, he said: "Since that''s the case, let me ask you a question."


    "Alright!" The little girl did not know that she had been tricked by Yun Ruoleng. Raising her palm-sized face, she said arrogantly. "As long as you ask a question, I will answer it all!"


    "Do you count me as your eye? Is there any way to cover it without being discovered? "


    After Yun Ruoleng finished speaking, the little girl looked at her for a long time with a strange gaze: "You''re still asking me after such a simple question! And you''re a wizard. "


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, was it that simple?


    "Sit down!" The little girl glared at her snappily, "Concentrate all of the power in your spiritual altar into your eyes, and then just use the Light Condensation Technique. This method is better than disguising. "


    Yun Ruoleng did not hesitate and continued to circulate his energy according to her instructions. It was just as she said, it was indeed simple, but what surprised Yun Ruoleng even more was that not only could the color of his eyes change, he could even change his entire face.


    "You can leave now!" The little girl yawned. "Remember what you promised me."


    Yun Ruoleng sneered: "Why would I do that? One must know that it takes a very long time to train one''s power!


    "I can give you something that will speed up your cultivation." Without even thinking about it, the little girl said, "Your body is very pure, and you have trained quite a number of magic skills, but you are still lacking in offensive power, so can I give you something so that you can improve your attack? The requirements will not change! "


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, after going through the battle last night, she knew that her own Wu Li was just a decoration, it was not even aggressive, even when transforming into a sword it was not as smooth as Jun Qingshang''s sword, she was just thinking about how to improve in this area, she never expected that even in her dreams there would be someone who would give her a pillow.

 C347

    Yun Ruoleng was overjoyed in his heart, but he maintained an indifferent expression. He snorted lightly: "What benefits does this have? Have I, as a girl, fought and killed my way through life? "


    "You''ll definitely be useful in the future!" The little girl said meaningfully. Her eyes fell on her recovered black pupils as she said, "Your bloodline is far more than that. Your future path will probably be even more difficult. You''ll only benefit from raising me."


    The expression on Yun Ruoleng''s face stiffened and he looked at the little girl for a long time. "Do you know where this golden eye of mine came from?"


    "You''ll have to ask about that stone on your body." "Although he looks a little ugly, but he''s a treasure, a treasure that can bring someone back from the dead. I don''t know his name, he was sealed, you accidentally touched him yesterday and undid one layer, but there are three layers left."


    "How?" Yun Ruoleng was confused, she said that the place that they were at that day was extremely hot, so it seemed like she had unsealed the seal.


    "From the looks of it, that seal seems to have sealed your memories. It might be because it needs you to reach a certain realm and unseal itself." The little girl said as she pondered. She opened her hand and asked, "Ever since your seal was released, do you feel that your cultivation speed has gotten faster?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s eyes lit up, and nodded at the little girl: "Looks like you really have some uses. Whatever, I''ll raise you first!"


    The little girl''s eyes lit up as she nodded in excitement. Yun Ruoleng looked around and realised that Jun Qingshang could not leave for too long, he had to leave.


    felt dizzy. When she regained her senses once again, she was already inside the forest with Jun Qingshang, who was standing beside her with a face full of vigilance.


    Jun Qingshang heard a sound coming from his side, he slowly lowered his head to look at Yun Ruoleng, and seeing that she had woken up, he asked: "How is it?"


    Yun Ruoleng nodded her head. Although she blamed him in her heart for that matter, compared to all these, it was better that he was here today. Otherwise, she really wouldn''t have been able to find a way.


    "Then ¡­"


    "It''s getting late, we have to go back." Yun Ruoleng stood up and did not care if he followed along, he had already disappeared, leaving behind two words, "Thank you!"


    Jun Qingshang stood quietly in the forest, clenching and unclenching his fists on both sides, he muttered to himself: "Ruo Er, is there only thanks left between us?"


    Yun Ruoleng had already left, and did not hear his words at all. Jun Qingshang sighed softly. It might not be easy to change her mind this time. He had never lost to Phoenix Diagram before, but he had lost completely this time.


    Looking at the scenery around him, Yun Ruoleng did not feel the least bit sleepy. He climbed up onto the roof and sat down, looking at the half of the sky which was covered by dark clouds. The corners of his mouth unconsciously raised.


    "What are you doing sitting on it?" Just as Yun Ruoleng was thinking, a voice came out from under the roof and instantly interrupted her thoughts, making her frown in displeasure.


    "Do you know that people can scare people to death?" When Yun Ruoleng saw who the speaker was, he unhappily rolled his eyes.


    Liefeng climbed up to the roof, and made a inviting gesture towards her, "You should go down, this place is dangerous."


    Yun Ruoleng raised her eyebrows. Ever since she talked to him alone that day, it was as if he had become a different person altogether. She didn''t know whether it was her imagination or not.


    "Did you hear that?" Liefeng frowned, "It''s cold here, you''re not allowed to sit here!"


    "Why?" Yun Ruoleng said as his hands supported his back, his legs swaying unsteadily.


    "Because if something happened to you, we would be the ones to suffer!" Zephyr bent down and grabbed her arm, and just as he was about to pull her up, he was suddenly dodged by Yun Ruoleng.


    Yun Ruoleng chuckled: "That''s it?"


    "Then what else do you want?" Liefeng said unhappily, "You almost died when you sneaked out last time. Master gave us a death order, if anything happens to you, we won''t have to live anymore."


    "So it''s like that!" Yun Ruoleng nodded indifferently, but he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he felt that teasing this brat was a very fun thing to do.


    Liefeng didn''t find it funny, he ordered, "Go down!"


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, very unsatisfied. Her gaze fell on Liefeng for a long time, and before she could say anything, Liefeng opened his mouth first: "Don''t think that everyone is afraid of you! "Let me tell you, I''m not afraid of you!"


    "You''re not afraid of me, why are you trembling all over?" Yun Ruoleng''s gaze slowly turned from his face to his shoulder. Even though it was only a slight twitch, it did not escape her eyes.


    Liefeng was also stunned for a second. In the next second, he angrily said, "Who''s afraid of you? If I didn''t look at you and me... Forget it, let''s quickly go down! "


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng was extremely proud, her heart was especially uncomfortable after being roared at by the strong wind, as she raised her head and started to ignore him.


    Zephyr was on the roof and was helpless for the time being. This woman could neither fight nor say anything, but he, a grown man, felt a little awkward arguing with her.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze scattered once again, looking at the half a month worth of melancholy in the sky as he sighed. Liefeng decided not to call her anymore. He sat down beside her and followed her gaze to the sky. Only then did he realize that tonight''s moon was not bad. Although it wasn''t a full moon, the stars that filled the sky were still a beautiful scenery.


    It was unknown how long Yun Ruoleng sat for before he lazily stretched and slowly got up from the roof. He patted the wrinkles that did not exist and said, "I''m tired.


    Black lines covered Liefeng''s head. He wanted to refute a few words, but the Yun Ruoleng in front of his eyes had already disappeared. Liefeng wasn''t surprised, it seemed like he had long since gotten used to it.


    Yun Ruoleng fell asleep immediately after returning to his room. This time, he did not sleep soundly, but he could still hear the noises outside from time to time.


    The morning of the next day, Yun Ruoleng impatiently walked out of his room. He did not know if it was due to good luck, but he happened to hear Zhu Lan and Strong Gale chatting.


    "Who is Miss Fu?" Yun Ruoleng looked at the two of them suspiciously.


    Zhu Lan and Fierce Wind were shocked, and their expressions became extremely strange as they looked at Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng was confused by her gaze. "Did I ask something wrong?"


    "No ¡­" Zhu Lan forced out a smile, "It''s that Miss Qing Lian from the Lotus Pond."


    "It''s her!" Yun Ruoleng sneered, and turned to leave.


    Zephyr immediately became anxious, while thinking about how much this person had heard, he stopped Yun Ruoleng and asked: "What are you going to do?"

 C348

    Yun Ruoleng''s temper was already bad, and now that she knew who was trying to kill her, if she could tolerate it, she would call her "Leng Ruoyun!" Pushing away the strong wind that had stopped him, he continued to walk forward.


    "Sigh!" "You ¡­" Liefeng chased after her and said, "If you go now and only alert the snake by hitting the grass, the emperor won''t be able to do anything to her, much less you."


    Yun Ruoleng glared at him fiercely. "Is that all?"


    "Of course not!" Zephyr increased his pace, walked to Yun Ruoleng and extended his hand to stop her, "You must work together with the Emperor on this matter, the Prime Minister is the one in charge now, even if the Emperor has the power to rule the entire palace, the Prime Minister will still be the one in charge. "So if you act rashly, you will only bring disaster upon yourself."


    Yun Ruoleng rolled her eyes as she raised her hand to push Lie Feng away. "Do you think I''m as stupid as you?"


    Liefeng didn''t understand where Yun Ruoleng was going in a hurry, but in order to prevent her from getting injured, he hurriedly gathered people to follow her. He was indeed extremely worried in his heart.


    This was the first time Yun Ruoleng had swaggered into the courtyard of the Phoenix Diagram, followed by a large group of people.


    "Miss, this is ¡­"


    "Where''s the Phoenix Diagram?" Yun Ruoleng''s face was ashen, and it could be seen that she was truly angry at this moment.


    "The emperor is discussing matters with the various lords in the study room ¡­"


    Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Yun Ruoleng sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, his fingers drumming on the stone table in a rhythm, "Since the emperor has matters to attend to, then this lady will wait here. Once he finishes his work, we can discuss about capturing the murderer."


    Yu Yang''s expression slightly changed and he subconsciously glanced at the fierce wind that was hanging its head, not daring to look at him. He had a plan in his heart and hurriedly explained: "Miss, did you come because of the assassination attempt?"


    "What is it? You want to speak up for him? " Yun Ruoleng sneered, she would not let this matter go just like that.


    There was still a reason why the Phoenix Diagram wanted to kill him, what kind of treasure was that Fu Qinglian? He actually lured her out in the middle of the night!


    "It''s not that your subordinate wants to speak up for someone, it''s that this matter is extremely important and there is no real evidence. Therefore, this matter cannot be judged." Yu Yang knew that his words were effective when he saw Yun Ruoleng''s contemplative look, and continued to speak, "Master knows that he has wronged you, but he has no other choice! "So we added more men to your yard."


    "Really?" Yun Ruoleng was a little dazed yesterday and today, so he did not notice all of this. Hearing Yu Yang''s words, it seemed that he was indeed anxious about this matter.


    Yu Yang nodded his head, his gaze fell on Liefeng who was behind him and asked: "Liefeng, didn''t you tell you?"


    Yun Ruoleng then looked at the strong wind behind him and snorted softly, "Both he and Zhu Lan are so talkative now. "If I hadn''t listened to their discussion this morning, I wouldn''t have known who would have tried to harm me!"


    Liefeng''s head drooped even lower, thinking that Yun Ruoleng had really caused his death this time. I hate it when they talk behind my back, so I''m probably done for this time.


    Yu Yang looked at Lie Feng in astonishment, and couldn''t help but frown. Looks like he couldn''t hide today''s matter even if he wanted to, since Yun Ruoleng was so angry, he would definitely reveal it along with Zhu Lan.


    "That''s right, just how long is the Phoenix Diagram going to stay in there!" Yun Ruoleng changed the topic and asked impatiently.


    Yu Yang looked at the tightly shut study room door and shook his head: "Your subordinate is not too clear. Yesterday''s meeting only ended after sunset. I''m afraid today will take too long!"


    Yun Ruoleng was curious, there was a meeting going on every day, what kind of meeting was it? The spirit of the Phoenix Diagram was also good. With this, he spoke for several hours. He was not afraid of being annoyed listening to it.


    Yun Ruoleng stood up, since she couldn''t come out for a while, she might as well come back later! Even though he would not let this matter go, he could not sit in the courtyard and wait for him to feed the mosquitoes!


    Seeing Yun Ruoleng coming angrily and leaving calmly, the stone in Yu Yang''s heart was finally lifted. He heaved a long sigh of relief and rejoiced for the strong wind in his heart.


    It looked like there were a few shadows, which made her very uncomfortable. When they passed the garden, Yun Ruoleng intentionally circled around a few times to try to shake them off, but unfortunately, the strong wind was also not easy to deceive.


    After walking a few laps, the rest of the people were thrown off, but the strong wind still followed her, and even used teleportation in the middle, not losing him at all.


    Yun Ruoleng was curious, he suddenly stood under a big tree and fanned the air, finding himself a cool breeze, he looked at the strong wind that was chasing after him without changing his expression: "Aren''t you tired?"


    "I''m tired!" Liefeng nodded without the slightest hesitation, but the expression on his face was incomparably firm. "But compared to my life, I''m not afraid no matter how tired I am!"


    Yun Ruoleng scoffed. If you want to follow, follow me! I don''t believe that I won''t kill you.


    Only now did Liefeng know that Yun Ruoleng''s actions were so terrifying. This garden was only that big, but she actually walked around it, as if she did not feel tired at all.


    It would have been great if he had followed them, but Yun Ruoleng''s teleportation was just too terrifying, it ran all the way from one side to the other, and with a whoosh, it disappeared again.


    "What are you trying to do?" The strong wind propped up a big tree and asked while gasping for breath.


    Looking at his battered and exhausted appearance, and then looking at Yun Ruoleng''s spotless white clothes, Lie Feng became even more furious.


    Yun Ruoleng acted as if she did not see his anger, and lightly snorted with arrogance. If you''re tired, you can leave! "


    Liefeng clenched his teeth and glared at her, but Yun Ruoleng didn''t even bother to look at him, snorted lightly and left. No matter how much Liefeng grinds his teeth, he still has to follow. If something were to happen to him due to running around randomly, then his little life would be gone.


    Yun Ruoleng no longer ran around randomly this time and headed towards the Lotus Courtyard. If there were some people who wanted to kill her, she would go and take a look as well!


    At an angle that the strong wind could not see, Yun Ruoleng''s eyes flashed with killing intent.


    Yun Ruoleng swaggered into the Lotus Garden. Hearing the sound of the zither, Yun Ruoleng was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and stared at the strong wind: "The girl''s pavilion is in front of us, are you sure you want to follow us?"


    "But ¡­" Fine! I''ll wait for you here. "


    Zephyr originally wanted to say something, but Yun Ruoleng kept giving him meaningful looks. Although he didn''t know what Yun Ruoleng wanted to do, looking at her current state, she wouldn''t act rashly.


    Yun Ruoleng was indeed not an impulsive person. After calming down, he came up with a perfect plan, which was why he personally came to the Lotus Garden.


    The zither music inside the pavilion suddenly stopped, it was still a spotless white clothed man standing on the fourth floor, looking down at the scenery below. Yun Ruoleng raised his head and smiled at her, and Fu Qinglian who was upstairs nodded her head, and soon after, Qing Ye appeared at the top of the bridge. Yun Ruoleng then stepped onto the small bridge and headed towards the pavilion.

 C349

    Qing Ye did not bring him to the fourth floor, but instead made him wait in the living room on the first floor. As Qing Ye went out to make tea, Yun Ruoleng looked around every corner of the living room, but he didn''t find anything suspicious. Only then did he withdraw his gaze, and pretended to be uneasy as he stirred his handkerchief.


    "It''s said that Miss Yun is sick. I haven''t even had the chance to visit her, yet you''ve come running over yourself." Fu Qinglian walked into the room with a sweet smile. She was not wearing a veil today. Her face was slightly pale, but there was no sign of her being injured.


    Yun Ruoleng''s gaze easily swept across her as he smiled in embarrassment, "Not because I''m sick, but because I met an assassin. It''s fortunate that I''m not dead, otherwise I wouldn''t have heard the emperor''s solemn oath."


    "What?" Fu Qinglian''s eyes widened as she looked at Yun Ruoleng in disbelief. "There''s actually an assassin in this residence!? Didn''t the emperor investigate? "


    "What are you looking for!" Yun Ruoleng sighed, looked at Fu Qinglian pitifully and said, "That person is crafty! Not a single clue was left behind. "


    "So it''s like that!" Fu Qinglian sighed regretfully. The relaxed look that flashed past her eyes did not escape Yun Ruoleng''s eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng only smiled, but in his heart, he had already confirmed Lie Feng''s words.


    Fu Qinglian held onto Yun Ruoleng''s hand and asked in concern, "Are your injuries serious?"


    "It''s just some superficial wounds. But because of this assassination attempt, my cultivation has increased by quite a bit!" Actually, I am quite grateful to the person who wanted to kill me. If it wasn''t for her, I wouldn''t have such a fast cultivation speed. " Yun Ruoleng said excitedly as he held onto Fu Qinglian''s hand.


    The expression on Fu Qinglian''s face became unnatural as the anger in her heart became deeper.


    Yun Ruoleng had always taken her expression seriously, and had no choice but to say that the woman was good at pretending, and always showed an expression of concern. After she finished saying that, she immediately said: "Then you must have gotten lucky from your misfortune."


    "That''s right!" Yun Ruoleng continued with a smile, "However, this is also due to the Emperor''s contributions. If not for him, I wouldn''t have been promoted so quickly. On the night of the injury, the Emperor almost killed Imperial Physician Jiang in a hurry.


    "Amitabha, it is said that a wise man has his own destiny. Miss Yun must be a kind-hearted person." Fu Qinglian covered the corner of her mouth as she smiled. If she didn''t pay attention, she wouldn''t have been able to tell that something was amiss.


    Yun Ruoleng''s phoenix eyes flashed with an undetectable coldness, and the smile on her face became even more dazzling: "I heard that Miss Fu was sixteen years old and one year younger than me, so we''re already familiar with each other. What do you think? I call you Sister Lian, and you call me Sister Yun? "


    "I already wanted to call you that from the first moment I laid eyes on you. I was just afraid of scaring my sister." Fu Qinglian was full of smiles, but her eyes were clear and bright. She didn''t even have a smile in her eyes.


    "Since you''re a sister, I''ll have a word with you!" Yun Ruoleng pulled Fu Qinglian down and the two of them started to chat.


    Liefeng, who was standing in front of the Lotus Garden''s gate, didn''t seem to not want to leave either. What was this woman planning to do?


    "Sir Lie?" Qing Ye carried a cup of tea to his side and bowed, "Why aren''t you going in?"


    "I... "No way!" Liefeng looked at the smile on Qing Ye''s face and choked back his words, then he said, "Miss Fu, as a man, if I barge in, I will ruin your reputation."


    Qing Ye smiled slightly: "The sun is scorching hot, my lord should wait under the pavilion! It''s really hot here. "


    "Thank you!" Qing Ye led the strong wind into the pavilion, put down the tea and left.


    Liefeng sat in the pavilion, preoccupied with his thoughts. From time to time, he would glance at the pavilion across the river. Seeing that there was still no response, he couldn''t help but furrow his brows, and the doubt in his heart grew even more.


    After an unknown amount of time, there was finally a reaction from the other side of the lotus pond. Yun Ruoleng reluctantly walked out of the living room, which immediately made Strong Gale''s heart tighten, and he hurriedly walked out of the pavilion to meet her.


    "Why are you still here?" Yun Ruoleng walked down the small bridge. His first reaction when he saw the strong gale was anger, how could he see him anywhere?


    "Zephyr will follow orders. If you don''t like it, you can go speak to His Majesty!" Liefeng''s expression became more unsightly. He had waited for her under the scorching sun for so long, but she actually disdained it. This was simply too much!


    Yun Ruoleng snorted, pushed him away and walked forward.


    Liefeng nodded to Qing Ye, who sent her out, and quickly chased after him.


    After Qing Ye returned to Fu Qinglian''s side, he told her about this scene. Fu Qinglian couldn''t help but frown. "This woman is merely showing off her skills just because the Emperor dotes on her."


    "This servant also thinks so. In my opinion, she is nothing more than a chess piece for the Emperor to seize from the Heavenly Awakening Realm. In the end, she is still useless. It doesn''t matter if you kill her!" A murderous look appeared on Qing Ye''s face.


    Fu Qinglian interrupted her in a bad mood. "That incident just happened and we''ve already alerted her. The emperor is still paying attention to her now. We can''t act rashly again."


    "Miss, she is an enemy of the kingdom. Even if she were to die in our hands, His Majesty would not do anything to us!" Qing Ye''s thoughts were different. Her young miss was born into a noble family with the prime minister supporting her from behind. Even if the emperor really wanted to punish her, it wouldn''t be too severe.


    "Qing Ye, you have to use your brain to do things!" Fu Qinglian said snappily, "His Majesty captured her twice from the Heavenly Awakening Sect. If it was just for the sake of war, it would be impossible for him to capture a woman twice." "Moreover ¡­"


    Fu Qinglian''s expression was extremely unsightly. Her pale face had long ago turned ashen as she gritted her teeth and said, "She has a place in the Emperor''s heart!"


    Qing Ye didn''t dare to say anything else. After all, Fu Qinglian''s expression was extremely ugly.


    After returning to the Phoenix Warm Pavilion, Yun Ruoleng pulled the strong wind to his side and said: "You''re still angry!"


    "Humph!" Liefeng didn''t know what this woman was trying to do, he had almost wanted to kill himself just now, but the moment he came back, he pulled her and started talking.


    What did he think he was? You can forgive her just by saying something nice? You wish!


    "Liefeng, why do you think you''re so stupid? You can''t even tell from this act?" Yun Ruoleng rolled her eyes at him in a bad mood, "The more unbridled I act, the more I want to rope her in and curry favor with her, the more wronged she will be.


    After Yun Ruoleng''s words, Lie Feng''s gaze became a little strange. Last time, when Ah Zheng accompanied Master to the Lotus Courtyard, he also came back to say that Master''s temper had greatly changed, and that his attitude towards Miss Fu was a little different.


    At that time, he still hadn''t thought it through, but after hearing Yun Ruoleng''s words, he finally understood.


    Both of them were digging holes for Fu Qinglian!

 C350

    Liefeng subconsciously glanced at Yun Ruoleng. He felt that she and her master had too much of a tacit understanding!


    Was this considered a coincidence?


    Yun Ruoleng raised his eyebrows and looked at the strong gale, causing it to feel embarrassed. It snorted coldly and turned its head away, "Don''t think that I will forgive you just because you said all these!"


    "Alright!" Yun Ruoleng shrugged helplessly, and turned to say confidently: "If that''s the case, then don''t come next time you go out, you won''t be able to help anyway."


    "¡­" The corner of Liefeng''s mouth twitched a few times, but he didn''t give chase.


    Yun Ruoleng walked a few steps before pausing and turning around to see that Lie Feng was still standing where he was, he snorted lightly: "If you can''t help, I''ll just tell Feng Tu that I don''t need someone as arrogant as you."


    "You ¡­" Zephyr stared at her fiercely, but Yun Ruoleng did not care about its angry look, and left confidently and unrestrainedly.


    How could Zephyr stand? He quickly chased after it: "Stand still!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s footsteps sped up a bit, and he further distanced himself from the strong gale that was chasing after him. The strong wind became anxious and he jumped up, once again appearing in front of Yun Ruoleng.


    "Is there something else?" Yun Ruoleng raised his chin, and looked at him with a smile that was not a smile.


    "You didn''t discuss today''s matter with me, did you?" Strong Wind took a deep breath. Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s arrogant appearance, he really wanted to pinch her to death.


    However, Yun Ruoleng did not seem to see the dissatisfaction in his eyes, and slowly said: "You''re asking me now? What did you do just now? "


    "You ¡­"


    "What''s wrong with me?" Yun Ruoleng blinked his eyes innocently and asked.


    Being interrupted by Yun Ruoleng, Lie Feng did not know what to say. He only said, "You can act better than Fu Qinglian!"


    "Ya!" Yun Ruoleng exclaimed, "So it turns out that you all know about that white lotus! I thought I was the only one who saw her clearly! "


    "Mistress knows that we also discovered her during the process of monitoring her." Liefeng seemed to have thought of something, he glared at Yun Ruoleng and said, "You are the same as her!"


    "What''s there to act about? I sit up straight and don''t do any heinous acts." Yun Ruoleng glared at him in displeasure. What did this brat say? Wasn''t it just trying to trick him into following her around a few laps under the scorching sun?


    She hadn''t even said anything to a girl, so how could a man like her be so charming?


    "Weren''t you still acting just now? And you admitted it yourself. " Zephyr hugged his sword and said with a faint smile. This woman did not admit it, so he had underestimated her.


    "Isn''t that explaining to a certain lord?" Yun Ruoleng chuckled. Otherwise, someone will say I''m arrogant. "


    "Hur hur." Continue acting! Liefeng turned his face away, not looking at her extremely charming smiling face, and sneered again and again.


    Yun Ruoleng shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "I have to do something to whoever I deal with. Forget it, since you do not believe me, then don''t waste your time here."


    After saying so much, his mouth was already dry. He didn''t believe that there was anything he could do.


    Yun Ruoleng circled around him and continued walking. When she passed by him, she said: "Your master said before, that we are the same type of person."


    Liefeng''s body froze and the expression on his face became extremely strange. Didn''t he just scold his master after talking so much? Thinking of this, Liefeng really wanted to slap himself a few times.


    Since the words had already been spoken, it was impossible for him to take them back.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t use it this time, he teleported back into the room and finished the cup of tea in one gulp. Zhu Lan carried the pastries and walked in. Seeing that she seemed to still be angry, he didn''t even dare to speak anymore.


    "Zhu Lan, you said that brat has such a stubborn temper! "He''s always so arrogant, isn''t he afraid of suffocating himself?"


    Zhu Lan was startled, then remembered that when the two of them came back, Liefeng''s expression was not very good, his Qi was not even steady, and he looked to be very tired.


    Yun Ruoleng waited for a good while, but still did not get the answer he wanted. He raised his head and looked at Zhu Lan suspiciously, "What are you thinking about?"


    ''Your servant is thinking ¡­ Have you offended him? " Zhu Lan asked carefully, afraid that the words he said would make Yun Ruoleng angry.


    "It was just a play and we didn''t discuss it with him beforehand. We came back to explain it to him, but he ¡­" Yun Ruoleng immediately got angry when she thought of this. This subordinate was like a proud and pampered little gongzi, she was really too lazy to bother with him!


    "Then he''s probably mad at the girl for using him!" After saying this, Yun Zhi continued to advise for Liefeng, "Actually Liefeng doesn''t always get angry, only people who care will get angry. "I can see that he really treats you well, you shouldn''t have kept it a secret from the beginning."


    Yun Ruoleng was startled, then raised her head and looked at Zhu Lan seriously, sizing him up from top to bottom. Zhu Lan''s entire body stiffened, and even felt a little embarrassed from her gaze.


    "You don''t like him, do you?" Yun Ruoleng suddenly said.


    Zhu Lan''s small face quickly turned red, and she promptly waved her hands: "Miss cannot speak carelessly! If anyone heard this, they would have thought that this servant is a death sentence! "


    "It''s that tragic?" Even Jun Qingshang felt that the two of them were a match made in heaven. In the palace, the guard beside the little emperor, didn''t he also like the big palace maid by the empress dowager''s side? Didn''t the two masters agree to it? Why did it become a capital offense here?


    "There is a palace rule that palace maids who enter the palace are not allowed to have an affair with other men. That is a capital offense!" Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was still confused, Zhu Lan immediately explained, afraid that she would mention this matter again in the future.


    Yun Ruoleng curled her lips. This was too heartless, no one could say that they were mutual lovers. The Yue Ling Palace was a reserved place, she had to escape from there as soon as possible.


    Some things were like a fuse. It wasn''t a big deal to begin with, but once you started, it would leave a shadow in the hearts of others. Yun Ruoleng wanted to leave even more, because in the next few days, she would diligently train, her hard work did not go against her expectations, and in four to five days, she had reached the peak of the Grand Mage''s strength.


    She also felt very tired these past few days. From time to time, she would go to the Lotus Garden to speak to Fu Qinglian. Sometimes, Phoenix Diagram would come and play chess with her, and it seemed that Phoenix Diagram had spent more and more time at the Phoenix Warm Pavilion.


    Of course, he did not just send fruits to Yun Ruoleng. Every time Yun Ruoleng ate a fruit, he would find a note inside it.


    What was even stranger was that each time she took a note, there would be a line of lines on it, and it was a love poem that the Regent disdained.

 C351

    When Yun Ruoleng first read it, he immediately laughed.


    Yun Ruoleng was not a heartless person, after Jun Qingshang had apologized many times, her heart had softened. Although she didn''t say it, her actions told him that she had softened her heart.


    It was night, when Yun Ruoleng was sitting in his room cultivating, a voice suddenly popped out in his mind: "Little master, Long Yu is looking for you."


    Yun Ruoleng slowly opened his eyes, his golden pupils flashed with a sense of helplessness, which he quickly covered up, before disappearing from the house. She naturally knew who Long Yu was, but why did Jun Qingshang look for her?


    "Little thing, how did you know?" As Yun Ruoleng quickly skimmed across the roof of the palace, he was also diligently sensing the existence of the phoenix jade.


    Feng Yu sat on the crib, swinging her legs. She said in a childish voice, "There is a connection between me and Long Yu. Even if we were thousands of miles away, we could still find each other."


    The Dragon and Phoenix were born together. The corner of Yun Ruoleng''s mouth raised a little, thinking back to the impatient look the old man had when he obtained this piece of jade.


    As long as they had Jade, as long as they were in the same world, they could still find each other.


    Yun Ruoleng arrived at the place Feng Yu pointed out. There was already a person standing there, waiting for her, but he was standing with his back facing her, so Yun Ruoleng could recognize him just by looking at his figure.


    "You''re looking for me?" Yun Ruoleng could not leave the manor, so he had to stay in the dense forest for the entire time. At least, this place was sparsely populated, even if there were people coming, he could hide.


    Jun Qingshang slowly turned around and extended his hand out towards Yun Ruoleng: "I''ll bring you to see the meteor shower."


    "Tonight?" Yun Ruoleng looked at the sky. The night sky was truly beautiful, with dense amounts of stars flashing. How long had it been since she had last enjoyed the view of the sky?


    Jun Qingshang smiled and nodded slightly. He took a step forward and looked at the pair of exquisite beautiful eyes s with a glimmer of hope like that of a child.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the pair of hands with a thin cocoon on it.


    "What''s wrong?" Seeing that she did not speak for a long time, Jun Qingshang could not help but frown. He thought to himself, could it be that she still does not want to return to his side?


    Yun Ruoleng slowly lifted his hand and placed it on the cocoon covered big hand. The corner of his mouth slightly rose, as if he had returned to the feeling of the past. This feeling was very comforting.


    Jun Qingshang held onto the small hand that was in his own, and pulled her into his embrace. Without waiting for her to regain her senses, he lightly tapped the ground with his toe, and with a swoosh, he jumped into the forest. With a few rises and falls, he arrived at the top of the tallest tree.


    This angle was very good. It was not easy to be discovered by others, but one could also see the situation in the entire mansion. Yun Ruoleng could see the situation in the courtyard of the Warm Phoenix Pavilion with a glance. Strong Gale and Zhu Lan sat in the courtyard and spoke with a solemn expression on their faces.


    But in the corridor, the patrolling guards kept walking back and forth as if they were looking at a prisoner. Yun Ruoleng couldn''t help but frown.


    Jun Qingshang followed Yun Ruoleng''s gaze and rubbed her furry head, saying, "After I find a way to remove the barrier, I''ll bring you back and we''ll never separate again."


    Yun Ruoleng remained silent. It was true that she wanted to leave this place, but she did not want to return to that place where he was.


    Jun Qingshang tightened his fingers which were tightly placed at his side. Because Yun Ruoleng was silent, he looked at Yun Ruoleng, at a loss of what to do.


    "The night sky is truly beautiful." Yun Ruoleng suddenly changed the topic and smiled.


    Jun Qingshang sighed, since she was not willing to listen to him, she would not speak further, and the hand around her unconsciously tightened.


    The two of them sat in the forest watching the meteor shower, unaware that someone was watching them from a higher place.


    Yu Yang took out a bamboo tube from his sleeve and handed it over to him while he helped him change the tea. Phoenix Diagram was stunned for a moment as he received the bamboo tube.


    "This is the news from Flame Artillery Squadron." After the Phoenix Diagram was opened, his face instantly darkened to the point of dripping with water.


    Yu Yang, who was standing to the side, could clearly feel the change in his aura and carefully waited on him: "The Raging Flames team is in charge of supervising from the shadows, could something have happened?"


    "Ha ha!" Phoenix Diagram threw a piece of paper with a bamboo tube in his hand to Yu Yang and sneered: "Of course, only that person would have such abilities!"


    "This ¡­" Yu Yang looked at the few words on the letter in astonishment. His gaze was even more cautious as he looked at his master''s increasingly heavy face. He didn''t dare to say a single word.


    "Get people to keep watch!" He did not believe that Jun Qingshang could still take him away.


    "Yes sir!" Yu Yang did not even dare to take a deep breath, and immediately retreated as he was afraid that this matter would implicate him.


    Fortunately, Huang Tidemark''s expression only changed and he did not pursue the matter any further. After Yu Yang left the room, he heaved a sigh of relief. This time, his master had really fallen for it.


    Yun Ruoleng nestled into Jun Qingshang''s embrace, quietly looking at the night sky. After waiting for a long time and not seeing the meteor shower, he finally yawned, couldn''t help but fall asleep in Jun Qingshang''s embrace.


    Jun Qingshang tightly held onto his arm, and pressed a kiss on her forehead, as he muttered to himself: "Ruo Er, what should I do with you?"


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up again, the sky was already bright. Opening his eyes, he looked at the familiar environment and couldn''t help but frown. Was it Jun Qingshang who brought her back?


    When she was together with Jun Qingshang last night, she knew that Jun Qingshang had secretly sent her back without her knowing. It was just that she didn''t want to believe it at the moment.


    Yun Ruoleng was sitting on her bed in a daze, she did not hear any footsteps outside, and she did not regain her senses when the door was pushed open.


    "Miss, the Emperor has arrived." Zhu Lan ran into the room excitedly. Seeing that Yun Ruoleng was sitting on the bed in a daze, he became anxious and quickly put on the clothes that he had placed on the bed: "Miss, you should put on your clothes first!"


    Yun Ruoleng regained his senses, then forced a smile at her, and allowed her to help him put on his clothes.


    After dressing himself, Huang Tu''s figure appeared at the door. Seeing the two of them tidying their clothes in a fluster, he paused for a moment, then turned his back to Yun Ruoleng and did not say a word.


    Yun Ruoleng only raised her eyes to glance at him, and continued to watch Zhu Lan tidy up her clothes. Time seemed to have stopped, and other than the rustling sounds of Zhu Lan tidying up her clothes, there was no other sound in the room.


    After Zhu Lan finished tidying up the affairs, she turned and left, the look on her master''s face was not very good, if she stayed any longer, she was afraid that he would get angry again.


    "You were out last night?" When Huang Tu saw Zhu Lan close the door, he turned his head to look coldly at Yun Ruoleng and a trace of anger appeared in his eyes.

 C352

    Yun Ruoleng turned her head to look at him and did not speak for a long time. "I don''t know who you went out to meet, but don''t forget about your identity!"


    Yun Ruoleng smiled, and asked puzzledly: "You make it sound like I''m raping you. Why did you eat it? "


    "I''m too lazy to care about all this, but don''t forget, you''re my queen! The future empress must also follow the maidservant''s orders. " The phoenix image was expressionless. Although the words spoken were unpleasant, they allowed Yun Ruoleng to find the breakthrough point.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed coldly: "I have never seen this before, but I know an ancient saying!"


    "Hmm?" Huang Dian looked at her doubtfully.


    "Friends and wives are not to be cheated." Yun Ruoleng leisurely got up to tidy up his clothes, and then headed inside the house, not looking at the Seven Colored Cloud''s changing face anymore.


    "You ¡­" Huang Tu pointed at Yun Ruoleng in anger, seeing that she was so stubborn, he turned his head and refused to look at her, the nameless anger in his heart rising uncontrollably. Not knowing why, Huang Tu suppressed his anger and asked softly: "You were looking for us yesterday?"


    "The emperor is busy every day, I don''t dare to disturb him!" Yun Ruoleng did not forget about being stopped, and the moment he thought of this, he became angry.


    It was already the third fragment of the night since she had settled the matter yesterday. Yu Yang had just mentioned this matter and it was not easy for him to find her, so he had come early, but he did not expect her to be angry over this matter. As Huang Tu looked at Yun Ruoleng''s sunken face, an unbelieving thought surfaced in his mind: Could it be that I''m still in her heart?


    Thinking up to here, Huang Tu''s voice became much softer: "Regarding the matter of you being assassinated, let us handle it! After all, this is a very serious matter and we don''t have enough evidence to prove that she did it. "


    "What''s there to say?" Yun Ruoleng sneered, wasn''t that the person you loved? He couldn''t bear to part with it! Why do you need to come up with all these pretentious reasons?


    "Ruo Er..."


    "I am just a chess piece to save the Wake Phoenix. As long as I don''t die, everything will be fine!" Yun Ruoleng looked at him in displeasure. "I, Yun Ruoleng, am already unable to thank Your Majesty for his concern! You can go! "


    "You ¡­" In the end, he flicked his sleeves and left. It could be seen that Yun Ruoleng had angered him this time.


    Just as he left the courtyard, a secret letter blocked his way, so he immediately went to the study room, where he found Ah Zheng, Yu Yang and Lie Feng.


    "Your majesty, the Immortal Suppressing Orb has yet to be found. If you try to revive the princess by force now, you only have a ten percent chance. If the person with the Formation Aperture reaches the level of Magus Emperor, then you have a twenty percent chance of success." "The princess'' body has started to decompose, and can no longer be preserved by the witch, only the spell formation can be activated."


    "Twenty percent confident ¡­" Huang Tu dropped onto the chair, holding onto it with both hands and asked: "What happens to the people in the eyes of the array formation?"


    "Regardless of success, she will still die." Liefeng lowered his head, not daring to even breathe.


    "How long more can we hold out?" Phoenix Diagram struggled in his heart. Thinking of Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang''s chaotic emotions and Yun Ruoleng''s feelings for him, he couldn''t help but smile foolishly.


    That smile was even uglier than crying. Yu Yang and Ah Zheng both lowered their heads, not daring to look him in the eye. Zephyr took a deep breath and said, "At most half a month. In this half a month, I will need the ice bed and twelve Magi of Grand Master rank or above to continuously channel magic power to her, so that her body will not be damaged."


    "Yu Yang, tell him to prepare the elixir for the upgrade."


    "Yes sir!" Yu Yang responded and quickly left.


    Feng Tu looked at Ah Zheng again, and sighed softly: "Send people to keep watch, we cannot allow the last time to happen again!"


    "Yes sir!" He was a goosebumps, but he was also a conscientious and dutiful person. It was safer to leave guarding this kind of thing to him.


    Huang Tu looked at the strong wind again and nodded to him, then stood up and walked out. Liefeng got up and followed immediately, passing by the dazed Ah Zheng and quietly reminded him, "Hurry up and go!"


    A Zheng returned to his senses and smiled at him, then quickly ran out. Liefeng shook his head with a smile, then chased after them.


    Yun Ruoleng sat at the corridor and quietly read a book. Thinking back to what Jun Qingshang had just said, she became absent-minded for a moment, and the expression on her face became much gentler. Perhaps in two days time, she would be able to leave the cage.


    It was unknown if it was because she was too preoccupied with her thoughts that the book in her hands was taken away by someone else and she did not notice it.


    Seeing her blank look, Huang Tu''s heart throbbed with pain, but he suppressed it in the next second and unceremoniously knocked on her head with the book: "What are you thinking so deeply about?"


    Yun Ruoleng raised his palm-sized face and sneered: "I didn''t think about anything."


    Huang Tu shook his head and extended his hand: "Follow me."


    Yun Ruoleng glanced at it, and then pulled himself up, and took the lead to enter the house, "Speak, what is it?"


    "We haven''t found the Immortal-Suppressing Pearl. Ke''er''s body is already beginning to rot. I hope you can raise your cultivation to the level of a Divine Magus in a short period of time." This will at least save your life. " When he said till here, Huang Tu looked away in an instant, so fast that even Yun Ruoleng did not realise it.


    Yun Ruoleng''s face turned serious when he heard that, "Only after reaching the Deity Tier can I use the Immortal-Suppressing Orb to protect my life, but now there isn''t the Immortal-Suppressing Orb, the Phoenix Diagram! The Phoenix Diagram! "Are you trying to take this wangfei''s life?!"


    Phoenix Diagram''s expression flashed and he forced out a smile: "I already have a portion of the Immortal Suppressing Orb. For this month, you should cultivate properly. This way, you will still have a chance to survive."


    "You!" Yun Ruoleng''s heart was filled with rage, "I really can''t understand, for a dead person, you actually want to let a living person extend her life! "How many people have you killed for your sister all these years?"


    With that, Yun Ruoleng''s finger grabbed towards his neck. Huang Tu''s body flashed and he easily hid behind her, raising his hand to touch her acupoints.


    "Let me go!" Once again fighting, Yun Ruoleng realized that he was still not her opponent. To be more precise, his Shaman Energy was too strong, he could completely suppress his own Shaman Energy, causing all the blood in his body to congeal and his limbs to stiffen. This feeling was extremely difficult to endure!


    "You have no other choice now!" The Phoenix Diagram no longer cared about Yun Ruoleng''s opinion of it, since she knew about it, there was nothing left to hide.


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart froze as his gaze fiercely stared at the Phoenix Diagram in front of him.


    Huang Tu lifted his hand and tied the hair that was by her ear behind her ear. His slightly cold fingertip gently caressed her flawless little face, his emotions in an extremely complicated manner.

 C353

    Yun Ruoleng''s face was extremely ugly, he continued to use the power in his body to attack his acupoints, and because of a moment of desperation, he spat out a mouthful of blood, which directly landed on Huang Tu''s face. His originally rosy face instantly paled, and beads of perspiration trickled down his forehead.


    Phoenix Diagram''s face immediately darkened, and he angrily said: "Are you that disgusted by our touch?!"


    Yun Ruoleng only felt an intense pain in his chest, adding that all the strength in his body had frozen into a solid state, his hands and feet went soft, and he fell straight onto the ground. Feng Tu''s heart tightened, and hurriedly pulled Yun Ruoleng into his embrace, ignoring her resisting gaze, he carried her on the bed and said, "Invite the royal physician!"


    When the strong wind outside heard the angry roar from inside, it couldn''t help but shiver and immediately ran away. Taking this opportunity, he also received another decree from the Phoenix Diagram, but all the guards who served Yun Ruoleng had to drink a bowl of medicine to show their loyalty.


    Looking at Yun Ruoleng''s pale face on the sickbed, Huang Tu''s face darkened: "We do not believe that you can still sit here and watch."


    As long as that person was in danger, she definitely wouldn''t ignore it.


    Not long after the Phoenix Diagram left, Yun Ruoleng woke up. There was a wooden box on the side of the bed, with a note stating that the pills inside could recover magic power. After thinking for a while, Yun Ruoleng thought that it was given by the Phoenix Diagram, and ate it in one gulp.


    However, his heart was suddenly extremely anxious, as if something was about to happen. But perhaps it was because that medicinal pellet was really useful, or perhaps it was because of her bloodline, causing her to automatically raise her level by one level the moment she opened the seal on the Phoenix Diagram. At that time, even the Phoenix Diagram was dumbfounded.


    "Based on your current cultivation speed, you should be able to reach the level of a Divine Magus in less than half a year." Feng Tu stood by the side of the bed, and looked at Yun Ruoleng meaningfully.


    Yun Ruoleng just nodded and did not reply him. She closed her eyes and started to train quietly.


    Feng Tu also knew that no matter how long he stood here, she wouldn''t even look at him. But what made him even angrier was, if it wasn''t for the fact that a lot of people died last night, he would have thought that the medicine was fake! He didn''t know how he cured the cold poison either.


    After the Phoenix Diagram left, Yun Ruoleng suddenly opened his eyes, and took out the phoenix jade from his chest: "Phoenix Jade, oh Feng Yu, how do you think we should love each other to defeat him?"


    When he regained consciousness once again, he was already inside the Phoenix Jade, and it was still a spacious and empty place. A small light illuminated a small corner, and the little exquisite phoenix jade was swaying back and forth on the swing, looking at Yun Ruoleng''s arrival as she asked in surprise, "Why did you come in by yourself?"


    "How would I know?" Yun Ruoleng said snappily. She had just called out to him twice before coming in, could it be that it was not this girl''s doing?


    "It seems that you really are the owner of this jade. Even if I don''t want to acknowledge you, I can''t do it!" Feng Yu pouted her lips and jumped down from the swing, her body appearing in front of Yun Ruoleng in a flash. Her pink face suddenly leaned towards Yun Ruoleng, and Little Whale sniffed at her: "Eh? Why does it have the smell of condensing magic powder? "


    "It is said that it can raise my power, so I ate ¡­" Yun Ruoleng quickly told her what had happened.


    After Feng Yu finished listening, his expression immediately changed as he looked at Yun Ruoleng with a strange gaze, "Could it be that you didn''t know that consuming too much of this medicine would affect your cultivation?"


    "I don''t know." Yun Ruoleng frowned, she had felt that this thing would be beneficial to others from the start, but now it seemed to be true, and the danger was not limited to just one point.


    "Stupid!" Feng Yu''s tiny body trembled with anger. She had waited for so many years and could finally meet someone who could open the phoenix jade, but she didn''t expect him to be such a fool. Luckily, she only ate a little. If she ate too much, she wouldn''t be able to save him.


    Yun Ruoleng was extremely unhappy after being scolded by a person half a body smaller than him, but he couldn''t find any words to refute. He could only forcibly choke back his anger as he glared at Feng Yu.


    Feng Yu coldly snorted with a proud expression: "Sit down and circulate your energy to force the medicine out of your body."


    Although Yun Ruoleng was not happy, he still obediently followed what she said.


    "Puchi ¡­" A clear sound of a promotion resounded through the entire space. Yun Ruoleng slowly opened his eyes and felt the meridians in his body relax, the internal injuries that he had not fully recovered from his injuries seemed to have healed as well.


    "Great Magus, peak strength!" Feng Yu frowned slightly and muttered, "The next seal is about to be undone."


    "Hmm?" Yun Ruoleng looked at her suspiciously, and did not understand what she meant for a moment. The seal on her bloodline had been broken through two layers. Why did she look so worried?


    "If all six of the seals on your body are removed, I''m afraid your body won''t be able to withstand it. If you''re fine, then don''t randomly undo it." Feng Yu glared at Yun Ruoleng unhappily: "Also, that man that Long Yu is following seems to have been poisoned. Aren''t you going to go take a look?"


    Yun Ruoleng did not react for a moment. What was Dragon Jade? By the time she reacted, her entire body had gone pale. She grabbed onto Feng Yu''s hand and asked, "What happened?"


    "How, how do I know?" Feng Yu endured the pain on her arm, and with a wave of her hand, a golden speck of light landed on Yun Ruoleng''s body, sending her flying.


    Just as he raised his head, Yun Ruoleng discovered that he was in the small forest to the east. However, he did not see Jun Qingshang''s figure, but instead, saw a pool of black blood on the ground.


    His heart trembled, Yun Ruoleng said in a low voice: "We must leave this place, do you have a way?"


    Feng Yu was silent for a long time, so long that even Yun Ruoleng felt that there was nothing she could do, and said that she had to first find Long Yu and Jun Qingshang before she had a plan. Yun Ruoleng immediately sent a secret invitation to Jun Qingshang to meet him in the small forest after midnight tonight.


    Midnight.


    When Yun Ruoleng arrived, he was already waiting there.


    Autumn''s weather was divided into night and day. It was hot during the day, but cool during the night. It was precisely because of this that the poison in his body broke out in advance, like a flood.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the person in front of her, and her eyes couldn''t help but moisten. If it wasn''t for her, he wouldn''t have been poisoned.


    "You''re here!" Jun Qingshang''s face was filled with a smile, as though he had not seen so happy in a long time.


    Yun Ruoleng forced a smile, the tears in his eyes uncontrollably flowed down, his sharp eyebrows slightly knitted, as he frantically wiped them off for her: "Why are you crying? Could it be that Feng Tu is bullying you? "


    "Nope." Yun Ruoleng''s body retreated a little, and maintained a certain distance from him. Only then did he open his mouth: "You''ve been infected with the cold poison?"

 C354

    "Nope." Jun Qingshang shook his head without hesitation, he had no time to hide the panic in his eyes.


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart tightened, and his expression became even more unsightly: "Then is there any medicine that can be cured?"


    "No!" Jun Qingshang paused for a moment, then realized that he did not deceive her, and awkwardly explained: "However, Long Yu has already helped me think of a way, you don''t have to worry."


    Yun Ruoleng frowned, maybe the jade could cure the poison? As she thought about this, she took off the Phoenix Jade on her body and stuffed it into Jun Qingshang''s hands. "Phoenix Jade can also help you cure the poison."


    Jun Qingshang held the ice-cold Phoenix Jade and his eyes turned red. He reached out and tied the hair that hung behind her ear, "Actually, I have something that I have never had the chance to explain to you clearly. That letter was written by Marshal Yang and the others, and since I can''t go back on my word after what happened, I didn''t exchange the city for you. "Please forgive me this time!"


    Yun Ruoleng paused for a moment, the doubt in his heart suddenly growing, and he could not help but ask: "Didn''t you come to explain it to me after you sent the letter?"


    "He explained it?" Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng suspiciously: "Explain what?"


    Yun Ruoleng''s body froze. From his tone, it seemed like ¡­


    Seeing that she was not saying a word, Jun Qingshang''s face became anxious, but before he could say a word, he heard Yun Ruoleng talk about the situation, and angrily said: "Peanut!"


    What was there to not understand? Everything was a play. Not only was it an act for Jun Qingshang, she was also the most important thing that allowed her to willingly stay behind and save his little sister who had died a long time ago.


    Yun Ruoleng laughed bitterly. He thought that he was smart, that he had everything under control, but there were times where he was played around by others. What did not exist from the beginning, was when the Phoenix Diagram acted against him.


    Suddenly, Jun Qingshang''s face heated up, and his face paled. He fell to the ground, spitting out a large amount of fresh blood that splashed onto Yun Ruoleng''s face, but it carried a chill as it seeped through every pore and seeped into his veins.


    Her small hands held tightly onto his wrist, as she channeled her power into his body bit by bit. In the beginning, Jun Qingshang had always been against her power, but under Yun Ruoleng''s constant pressure, she was finally able to use her power to enter his body.


    At this time, Jun Qingshang''s body underwent an earth-shattering change as wisps of green smoke emerged from his body. Yun Ruoleng was overjoyed, but in the next second, the smile on her face froze.


    "Pfft!" "Cough, cough ¡­" When Yun Ruoleng was using his power, he suddenly encountered an obstacle. He originally thought that he could break through it with a little more force, but he did not expect the barrier to rebound all of the force back, and that it would do so with double the force.


    Yun Ruoleng spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale white and powerless, and then An Yue who had been hiding in the treetop and observing his surroundings suddenly appeared behind Yun Ruoleng: "Royal Concubine, quickly stop! Otherwise, you''ll be poisoned too. "


    "No!" Yun Ruoleng gritted his teeth as his fingers formed a complex golden imprint in front of his chest. One of his hands slowly pushed the imprint toward Jun Qingshang''s chest. At first, An Yue was not clear about what the imprint was for, but when he saw the imprint fly towards Jun Qingshang''s chest, his expression changed drastically. It was already too late to stop it.


    "Hm!" "Puff ¡­"


    "Pfft!" "Cough, cough ¡­"


    Jun Qingshang and Yun Ruoleng spat out a mouthful of blood at the same time. At this time, the two pieces of jade on Jun Qingshang''s body suddenly glowed with a green light and appeared in mid air, following that, a golden light shot out from Yun Ruoleng''s body and towards the two pieces of jade. Yun Ruoleng only saw a blur, and then his entire person sank into endless darkness.


    "Yi''er." A gentle yet dignified voice suddenly came out from within the darkness. Yun Ruoleng only felt a throbbing pain in his head, his golden eyes could clearly see in the darkness but could not see anything within the darkness, as though he had fallen into a whirlpool of darkness.


    "Yi''er!" Yun Ruoleng frowned, her small hands rubbing between her eyebrows, Yi''er? Who is it? Could it be calling him?


    "Who''s there?" Yun Ruoleng closed his eyes and released his awareness to observe his surroundings.


    "Come to me." The gentle voice was a bit joyful and a bit nervous, but it made her feel very close, just like a mother who had seen a child she had parted from for many years. Yun Ruoleng followed the voice and walked a few steps forward. When he felt a gentle light shining on him, he slightly opened his eyes. Perhaps it was because he had been watching the darkness for too long, he still wasn''t used to the light.


    "Child, you''ve grown up." He did not hear him but instead heard him. Yun Ruoleng curiously looked around, the darkness around him was different than before, it looked gentle but carried an endless amount of pure Wu Qi, wrapping around every cell of his body, as though he was undergoing a baptism. In the center of the light was a fist-sized golden pearl, the shape of the pearl was hollow, on one side was a dragon and on the other was a phoenix, the center was connected by an auspicious cloud, inside the pearl was the source of light, and inside the pearl was a pearl, and only the size of a thumb was similar to the one on his neck, but this pearl was sparkling with a golden light, not a black one.


    "Who are you? "Where is it?" Yun Ruoleng withdrew his gaze from the bead and roared at the empty space.


    At this time, the bead shot out a beam of light, and like a projection, it released a part of the story.


    Yun Ruoleng looked at the woman who was seventy percent similar to her in his image, and she was completely stunned. Furthermore, she also saw a familiar face in her image.


    Zephyr ¡­ That boy from the Xize Continent, that boy from the Snow Clan... Yun Ruoleng frowned slightly as his head swelled up in pain. Everything in the image seemed to be related to him and would always stay in his mind.


    "You are the daughter of I, Xue Yan. Your name is Lan Yi. You were just born when you left me. You don''t remember anything ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng could no longer remember the rest of his words. His brain was filled with pain and he felt like his brain was about to explode.


    Ah!


    "Princess, you''re awake?"


    An Yue''s agitated voice allowed Yun Ruoleng to calm down. He slowly opened his eyes and looked around at the unfamiliar yet dilapidated environment around him.


    "Border!" An Yue looked at Yun Ruoleng in alarm, "Princess, do you still remember what you have done?"


    "What did you do?" Yun Ruoleng looked at An Yue suspiciously. She remembered that in order to force Jun Qingshang to commit poison, she seemed to have undone the seal on the pitch-black pearl.


    "You seem to have undone this seal." An Yue took out a handkerchief from his bosom and opened it. A pearl the size of a thumb appeared in front of Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng''s face stiffened, wasn''t this bead the same snow pearl that called itself mother? Why did they come here?!

 C355

    "This is a combination of the Prince''s Dragon Jade, your Phoenix Jade, and a bead. I didn''t think that it would send us directly to the edge of the camp. Two more miles and we would arrive at the Heavenly Awakening Army Camp." An Yue handed the pearl over to Yun Ruoleng and said excitedly: "Moreover, this pearl even suppressed the cold poison within this lord''s body. It''s really mystical."


    Yun Ruoleng hung the pearl on the chain around his neck, and laughed awkwardly: "Where is your master?"


    "Grandfather has been unconscious for a day and a night. He is sitting outside when he woke up!" An Yue immediately replied. As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Qing walked in and hugged Yun Ruoleng, and the others tactfully retreated.


    Time seemed to stop until Yun Ruoleng felt that his whole body was sore.


    "Don''t ever do such a dangerous thing again!" The moment Jun Qingshang released his hand, his handsome face elongated, and berated in an extremely displeased manner.


    Yun Ruoleng glared at him, unconvinced. "Do you want me to watch you die? What will I do if you die? "


    Jun Qingshang was startled, then said fiercely: "This king is a cat, how can I die so easily!"


    Before he could retort, An Yue''s voice suddenly came from outside: "Princess, it seems like the pursuers are here."


    "How many?" Jun Qingshang asked coldly, although part of the cold poison in his body had been dispelled and the remaining suppressed, but he could not casually use martial force, if it flared up again, even the gods would not be able to save him?


    "It''s the Steel Cavalry!" "Over ten thousand people." An Yue rushed into the room and protected Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang with his body.


    Yun Ruoleng directly gave him a supercilious look: "You can defeat so many people?"


    "This subordinate will buy you some time. Your Highness, please take Princess Hua-Yang away first!" An Yue unsheathed his sword and rushed forward without hesitation. Yun Ruoleng moved even faster than him, grabbing onto his collar and teleported a kilometer away.


    "..." "This ¡­" An Yue was shocked, the speed and distance of teleportation could not be compared at the start anymore.


    Jun Qingshang was also surprised, when she left the Duke Palace, she was only at the peak of the Great Mage. The distance she teleported was only about 400 meters, in her sleep, she could teleport around 1000 meters, this time she almost teleported to the entrance of Heaven''s Initiation Army''s camp.


    Yun Ruoleng was also shocked, but during such a short period of time, she appeared even more calm, and then teleported herself again in an instant.


    "Bam!"


    "Who ¡­"


    "Cough cough, my apologies ¡­" Yun Ruoleng immediately moved to the top of Yang Zheng''s meeting hall. Three people descended from the sky, directly smashing a hole in the tent, and then heavily smashing the long table, causing it to shatter into pieces.


    The generals sitting inside pointed their swords at a ball of something falling from the sky. Yang Zheng yelled in an aggressive manner.


    Yun Ruoleng was protecting Yun Ruoleng, but Yun Ruoleng was protecting Jun Qingshang. Amongst the three people, Yun Ruoleng was not injured, so they awkwardly lifted that beautiful face of hers. The moment Yang Zheng saw Yun Ruoleng, his old face turned red and white, while the hands holding the sword began to tremble. "Wang, wangfei, you didn''t, didn''t you fall down, right?"


    "Quick, quick, help the prince." Yun Ruoleng crawled up from Jun Qingshang''s body and pulled the grey faced Jun Qingshang up, then immediately afterwards he was carried to the Military Doctor''s tent.


    "Prince, you''re finally back." The moment Yang Zheng looked at Jun Qingshang, he touched him with his snot and tears, completely forgetting that he was a minister of the humerus.


    Yun Ruoleng quietly moved behind Jun Qingshang, he could not bear to look at, many ministers looked at Jun Qingshang with excitement, but when they looked at Yun Ruoleng, they were angry, and their eyes were full of responsibility. Yun Ruoleng thought for a moment that he was the ancient Demon Empress, and that he had enchanted his master to the point that he had to walk in circles. Otherwise, why would he abandon a hundred thousand soldiers and run to the Yue Ling to look for him?


    Jun Qingshang held onto Yun Ruoleng''s slender waist, expressionlessly looking at the person who was putting on an act, and only indifferently said: "It seems that this king has not come at the right time."


    Yang Zheng paused his movements, "Your highness, you have come at the right time. This subject is currently discussing about the attack on Suo Yang Suo City tomorrow! "Look ¡­"


    "Cough, cough ¡­" Foster father, Your Highness has just returned. Let''s delay this matter for a while first. " Yun Ruoleng suddenly stuck his head out from Jun Qingshang''s back at this time, and mischievously looked at Tian Tian, looking at Jun Qingshang''s robes and Yang Zheng from time to time.


    What else did Yang Zheng not understand? He immediately said, "What are you still in a daze for? Prepare to welcome the prince!"


    Yun Ruoleng looked at Yang Zheng in shock, and then looked at a certain impassive prince. Forget it, since it''s dirty, let''s dirty it! In any case, they were all men in the camp, so it didn''t affect how the girls thought of him.


    Just as Yun Ruoleng thought someone wouldn''t leave, a feeling of flying into the air startled Yun Ruoleng. Subconsciously, he held the only support point in his arm: "You ¡­ "Where are you going?"


    Yun Ruoleng felt that it was a little embarrassing to be carried outside with big steps, so she buried her head and asked in a low muffled voice. Yun Ruoleng didn''t say anything and carried Yun Ruoleng into a tent that wasn''t far from the official camp. This was Jun Qingshang''s residence, the last time he had come, so he was not at all unfamiliar with this place.


    "Sigh ¡­" "You!" Yun Ruoleng was smashed onto the bed by Jun Qingshang, and before she could finish speaking, he had sealed her with his burning lips. Yun Ruoleng really wanted to push her away, but he was helpless as his two arms were shackled on top of his head and he couldn''t even use strength if he wanted to.


    "Hu!" After who knows how long had passed, Jun Qingshang finally ended this kiss. How could Yun Ruoleng still have the strength to argue with him?


    "Shouldn''t you explain what happened to the pearl?" Jun Qingshang slightly narrowed his eyes, both hands on her sides as he looked down at her from above.


    Yun Ruoleng raised a hand and pushed him onto the bed, before turning around and riding on his waist: "How should I know, Feng Yu told me that I have a seal on me, and she said that unsealing my body wouldn''t be able to take it. But yesterday, it was unsealed for no reason, and I can''t even contact Feng Yu now."


    Jun Qingshang frowned slightly as both of his hands grabbed Yun Ruoleng''s waist, and with a flip of his body, pressed him down on the bed again. "This is heaven defying! They actually climbed onto This King''s body! "


    Yun Ruoleng snorted lightly, "Why can''t you suppress this wangfei and this wangfei suppress you? Jun Qingshang, can you give us some reasoning? "


    "This King is a man ¡­"


    "Men are amazing?" Yun Ruoleng turned around angrily, fiercely suppressing Jun Qingshang without backing down at all. "I don''t care, I just like it up there!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s brows could not help but twitch. What Yun Ruoleng did not see was that, that pair of beautiful eyes''s evil Qi flashed past his eyes. "Are you sure?"

 C356

    "I''m sure!" Yun Ruoleng was still afraid that Jun Qingshang would return, so he repeated his words again: "I''m sure, I''m sure! Don''t even think about changing your position! "


    Outside the tent, An Ying was standing guard at the door, and upon hearing the conversation inside, he shifted and shifted, the wangfei was fierce, she actually liked to stay up there, and had wronged the prince.


    "Pah!"


    "Jun Qingshang!" A clear sound of someone hitting the wall was followed by a soft and weak voice calling out to him. An Ying moved further outside and saw that the two of them were getting married.


    Within Suo Yang City, Feng Tu stood on top of the city wall, his serene and cold gaze looking at the place where the Heaven''s Enlightenment soldiers were stationed. Yun Ruoleng had run away, and without any forewarning, he left the mansion, and the pursuers that he sent out did not see him at all after returning. His entire person seemed to have disappeared into thin air, and Jun Qingshang also disappeared along with him.


    The moment he thought of the two of them, Phoenix Diagram''s expression became unspeakably ugly.


    "Your majesty, the Heavenly Awakening Realm seems to be reorganizing their troops. I fear that they will have to fight in the future." Han Mo quietly whispered behind Huang Tu, but he was waiting for a cold glare.


    "Pass down the order, the city is on standby. Whoever dares to lead troops out of the city without permission will be killed without mercy!"


    "Your Majesty ¡­" Han Mo subconsciously wanted to speak, but he was fiercely glared at by Phoenix Diagram and subconsciously took a step back.


    Phoenix Diagram snorted coldly and left without even glancing at Han Mo. Han Mo was left alone to wipe away the cold sweat on his forehead. He did not know why the Emperor''s temper had become so hard to handle in the last two days.


    Yun Ruoleng didn''t care about what the Phoenix Map was feeling at the moment. She was only combing through her memories happily, and looking at the strong gale that Jun Qingshang had grabbed back in front of her.


    The Immortal-Suppressing Orb had a total of six layers of seals. Currently, there were three layers undone and the White Tiger Jade Pendant on Liefeng''s body, the Black Tortoise Jade Pendant on her black robe, and the blood in her heart after she became a Sorcerer. Only in this way could it be considered a true Immortal-Suppressing Orb.


    "Why did you capture me?" The strong wind was furious.


    "Naturally, it''s to retrieve my item." Yun Ruoleng said indifferently, his gaze landing on his chest, "That White Tiger Jade Pendant is mine. I am your cousin, Lan Yi. "


    "You ¡­" Liefeng looked at Yun Ruoleng in disbelief as he continuously chanted, "Impossible, impossible ¡­"


    Yun Ruoleng merely smiled at him as a light blue light flashed in her hands. Following that, a blue ice lotus appeared, sparkling and translucent, emitting a sacred light while her other hand flashed with a golden light.


    When Liefeng saw this scene, what else could he not believe? "Sister Yi ¡­"


    "Humph!" Yun Ruoleng reached out a hand towards him. "Shouldn''t you give me a present by calling me sister?"


    "..." "Here you are." Liefeng laughed helplessly, but he took out a crystal clear tiger jade and passed it to Yun Ruoleng. He then started to talk about her parents at Yun Ruoleng''s request, "Your father is the youngest Holy Lord of the divine hall, your mother is a Senior Magus ¡­"


    It turned out that Black Robe had brought her to this continent, and Black Robe could not even seal the Shaman Energy around her body at all. In order to avoid being hunted down, he had to transfer the Shaman Energy from her body into Yun Qingyao''s body.


    So... If it wasn''t for her, perhaps Yun Qingyao wouldn''t have to die.


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression turned gloomy, but he immediately steeled his heart, wanting to take revenge for her.


    Suddenly, An Yue rushed over to say that Jun Qingshang had gotten the poison, and was so anxious that he teleported with the strong gale. As for why he was brought over, it was naturally useful.


    Yun Ruoleng made a complicated seal between his fingers, causing Yun Ruoleng to lightly hit his body. But not long after, his face turned slightly pale, and the golden light around his fingertips also slowly faded. The strong wind had no choice but to quickly condense a blue ray of light and hit Yun Ruoleng on his back, transmitting the power of magic.


    After a long while, Yun Ruoleng withdrew his finger, and used his sleeve to wipe the sweat off his forehead.


    However, when Jun Qingshang woke up, he saw Yun Ruoleng and Strong Gale huddled together, discussing something. The two were like a couple who were extremely close to each other, and the jealousy in his heart grew even stronger, as the person who had just gotten back to him with great difficulty was snatched away by his cousin who knew where.


    "Ruo Er." Jun Qingshang spoke in a slightly jealous voice.


    Yun Ruoleng regained his senses, turned his head, and said to him with a smile: "When I was detoxifying you just now, I discovered that there was a secret inside the suppressive bead, and we were currently discussing it!"


    Jun Qingshang''s expression froze, she looked at Yun Ruoleng''s beautiful smile, and her pupils contracted. Who would allow her to smile so brilliantly in front of another man? Jun Qingshang was furious in his heart, he glared at the strong gale: "Why are you still here?"


    The expression on Yun Ruoleng''s face stiffened and his brows knitted slightly. He didn''t know why Jun Qingshang''s hostility towards the Strong Gale was not any less than his hostility towards the Phoenix Diagram. The Phoenix Clan took him away, causing him to be poisoned. It was natural for them to hate him, but the strong wind didn''t seem to have offended him right?


    Just as Yun Ruoleng wanted to ask clearly, he heard the unhurried voice of the strong gale come from behind him: "I suppressed the Regent King''s poison for you. How is it, you don''t recognize him in the blink of an eye?"


    Jun Qingshang sneered: "If it wasn''t for you, this duke wouldn''t have been poisoned as well!"


    The person who spoke had his own mind, so when Yun Ruoleng heard Jun Qingshang''s tone, she subconsciously looked towards the strong wind, her delicate eyebrows knitted together: "What''s going on?"


    "He is Little Four, Huang Tu already knows of his identity and has never exposed him. One day, he suddenly gave the order for the medicine, but unfortunately, he was successful." Liefeng said calmly and innocently, shrugging his shoulders, "The reason he wanted to kill me so badly is because of my mission."


    Yun Ruoleng sighed: "Don''t blame him, he has no say in this."


    Jun Qingshang looked at Yun Ruoleng, wanting to say something but hesitating. He really wanted to refute, the situation was simply not like this, but seeing Yun Ruoleng''s troubled appearance, which made him unable to bear it, he shouldn''t make things difficult for her.


    Yun Ruoleng''s soft and weak hands gently covered his pale face, and she gently said. "Don''t run into the stands anymore, I''ll be worried."


    "Yes." Jun Qingshang was instantly pacified and asked, "But what about the Immortal-Suppressing Orb?"


    "My power can''t detect what''s going on inside." Yun Ruoleng was extremely depressed, she was its master, so she should be able to quickly probe what was going on inside, but inside it was dead silence, unable to find anything.

 C357

    Even though Yun Ruoleng was unable to figure out what it was, even after studying it for a long time, he still did not have a clue. In the end, he simply pulled Yun Ruoleng to watch a military exercise.


    The soldier was mighty and imposing. Yun Ruoleng watched on with interest, but suddenly felt that something was wrong. A wave of spirit energy fluctuations appeared in the air, causing her to frown.


    And the moment the spirit energy fluctuated, Yun Ruoleng disappeared. Even Jun Qingshang who was in the stands did not notice.


    "Phoenix Diagram!" The formation rippled very quickly and the two of them instantly moved to a patch of grass a thousand meters away. Yun Ruoleng was dressed in a white robe like a lotus, and the fragrance of the lotus flowers spread out in all directions.


    Phoenix Diagram stood with his hands behind his back. He wore a bright yellow robe that was accompanied by a dragon robe, looking alluring and alluring.


    "Come back with me!" I grant you a lifetime of glory. " The tip of Huang Dian''s foot tapped the ground as he slowly approached Yun Ruoleng. Yun Ruoleng''s body flashed, his speed was more than twice as fast as before. Huang Tu paused for a moment, then turned his head to recklessly size up Yun Ruoleng, as if he was trying to see through her.


    However, Yun Ruoleng''s body, other than the appearance and fragrance of the lotus, did not change at all. That face was still the same one. It was just that for some reason, when he looked at that face, he felt that it was even more beautiful than before.


    Yun Ruoleng recklessly sized him up and she was extremely unhappy in her heart. Her gaze then turned cold, "This wangfei is the scout, how can I go to the Yue Ling? Besides, this wangfei can''t afford the glory of your life. I''m afraid you''ll lose your life before you can even enjoy it! "


    Huang Tu''s face sank: "Could it be that you want us to personally capture you and bring you back?"


    "We''re just starting a conversation! You can''t help but reveal your fox tail? " Yun Ruoleng did not take his threat seriously. Zephyr said, although the Phoenix Diagram was only at the level of a Witch Emperor, it was only at the initial stage. Compared to her peak strength, she did not need to be afraid of him at all.


    He was a Dark Wizard, and a Shaman King Level one at that. Wasn''t Yun Ruoleng, a pure witch who wasn''t even a Shaman King, afraid of him? Why is that?


    Very quickly, Phoenix Diagram understood what was going on, and before he could say anything, an arrow pierced through the air and struck at his heart. Fortunately, the phoenix image felt the danger and used its power to resist.


    The energy contained within this arrow was too great. Phoenix Diagram used his entire body to resist but was unable to completely dissolve its power and break through the outermost layer of the protective barrier. Luckily, Phoenix Diagram used that instant to shift his position and avoid being pierced by the arrow.


    "You still dare to come?" Jun Qingshang''s voice suddenly came out, causing Yun Ruoleng to be alarmed, his heart almost reaching his throat. He had already told him not to use his inner force, why did he not listen?


    When Huang Tu saw the person who had released the arrow, he was extremely shocked, and spoke almost at the same time as Jun Qingshang: "You''re not dead?"


    "How can This King die so easily if you aren''t dead?" Jun Qingshang let out a cold laugh as he walked to Yun Ruoleng''s side and wrapped her small hands tightly with his big, slightly cold hands.


    "Ha!" Huang Tu sneered and his gaze fell on the two hands that were connected. His gaze slightly sank and the jealousy in his heart took away all of his rationality. The tip of his feet touched the ground, and a complicated imprint quickly condensed in his palm. The black imprint shot towards Jun Qingshang in the next second.


    Yun Ruoleng''s reaction was extremely fast, she pulled Jun Qingshang and easily dodged his attack, then her wide sleeves gently supported, releasing a light blue ray of golden light towards Phoenix Diagram.


    Feng Tu moved his body away in a ghostly manner. That ray of light did not hit him, but Phoenix Diagram''s expression darkened as he looked at Yun Ruoleng with a different gaze.


    Yun Ruoleng was also extremely surprised, even if he did not use his full strength, wouldn''t be able to let him dodge so easily? Could the Liefeng Priest be wrong?


    "Jun Qingshang, I never thought that you would hide behind a woman." Huang Tu''s provocative voice came from above them.


    Yun Ruoleng pulled Jun Qingshang behind him, and took a small step back. With furrowed brows, he looked at the person in front of him: "Phoenix Diagram, what exactly do you want to do?"


    "To take my beloved concubine back, of course." The Phoenix Diagram floated down from the sky.


    As soon as the tip of her foot touched the ground, Yun Ruoleng replied him bluntly, "Even if this wangfei wasn''t abandoned and wasn''t separated, it''s impossible for me to become your queen just because of my emotions! You can''t even think of using that as an excuse. "


    Huang Tu did not dodge. Yun Ruoleng''s furious attack did not land on his body. Instead, it went through his body and then disappeared.


    "..." "This ¡­" Yun Ruoleng pulled Jun Qingshang''s hand tightly. What''s going on?


    Huang Tu raised his eyebrows: "Do you think that your attack is ineffective? Let me tell you, this is one of the characteristics of the Dark Magi Emperor, ''Phantom''. It''s like a ghost, any pure power attack will have no effect. "


    Yun Ruoleng''s expression turned gloomy. Her Wu Huang characteristic was'' Purification '', able to purify all the black Qi. Although she did not use it just now, she should have been able to play a role.


    Jun Qingshang wanted to attack again, but Yun Ruoleng held his hand tightly, his brows slightly knitted: "You promised me."


    Jun Qingshang was startled, her struggling movements became sluggish, and then she did not say anything, but quietly stood behind her, like a daughter-in-law who had done something wrong, her head lowered.


    "Jun Qingshang, I never thought that you would like to hide behind a woman. Are you not afraid of being laughed at by others? You are the great Regent King, yet you want to eat a beating."


    Jun Qingshang was not angry. Instead, he was smiling as his strong arm embraced Yun Ruoleng''s slender shoulders. "This king''s consort is talented in martial arts, and will not lose to any man.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang looked up at each other and laughed. They simply did not see the angered expression on the Phoenix Diagram.


    Phoenix Diagram''s face darkened. He knew that he could not take the gentle route, so he did not care anymore. With a flick of his finger, hundreds of masked men dressed in black appeared behind him.


    Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang''s expressions immediately changed, especially Yun Ruoleng''s, these hundred black clothed people were no ordinary people, to be able to hide in front of them without being discovered, it was clear that they were extremely skilled.


    "Phoenix Diagram, you despicable person!" Yun Ruoleng''s face was ashen, she did not know how to scold him next.


    Phoenix Diagram sneered. Despicable? He wasn''t a righteous person to begin with, and she wasn''t the only one who called him despicable. He was already used to it. But why? Her words made his heart fiercely twitch. Had he really fallen in love? In love with a pharmacist who could never be together?


    Jun Qingshang held Yun Ruoleng''s little hand tightly, her brows knitted, her fingers suddenly raised up, drawing an arc in the air, causing the ground to shake non-stop. Yun Ruoleng subconsciously looked at Jun Qingshang, but Jun Qingshang only smiled at her without saying a word.

 C358

    Yun Ruoleng''s mouth twitched, he suddenly remembered what Jun Qingshang had said when he first came here, and laughed, So it was Jun Qingshang who was waiting for him here!


    "Kill!" Huang Tu glanced at the Black Wind Cavalry in ridicule, he did not even need to care about this group of people.


    The Black Wind Cavalry was an army that he had been training since he was three years old. Every single person that came out was a courageous and warlike general, did he really think that they were weaklings?


    Without needing Jun Qingshang to say anything, the Black Wind Cavalry behind him had already begun to move, surrounding and attacking a black-clothed man in groups of twos and threes. At this time, the An Ying Guards who had arrived late appeared behind Jun Qingshang.


    The moment Yun Ruoleng saw An Ying, he became angry, and asked bluntly: "Where did you run off to?"


    "Forthright ¡­" An Ying''s words that he was about to speak out were all stuck in his throat with Jun Qingshang''s fierce glare.


    Yun Ruoleng let out a cold snort, and pushed Jun Qingshang to An Ying. "Protect this wangfei well! If anything happens, this wangfei will tear you apart! "


    An Ying shivered. Oh my god! The look in wangfei''s eyes was too frightening.


    Without waiting for An Ying to reply, Yun Ruoleng pushed Jun Qingshang, who was tightly holding onto himself, toward An Ying, and in a flash, he arrived beside the Phoenix Diagram who was constantly attacking the black wind. Her fingers slashed open a crack in the middle, and the crack slowly widened.


    "Princess!"


    "Ruo Er!"


    Jun Qingshang and An Ying, who had been paying attention to Yun Ruoleng, were greatly shocked. The two simultaneously pounced towards the black vortex, but unfortunately, they were too far away, so they had no time to catch it.


    "Prince ¡­" An Ying caught the crumbling Jun Qingshang and saw that he stood in place in regret. The Black Wind Cavalry quickly subdued the black masked man brought by Phoenix Diagram.


    On the other side, Yun Ruoleng tore through space and pulled him into the empty and chaotic space, while the two of them stood on a floating rock. Yun Ruoleng fundamentally didn''t give Phoenix Diagram the slightest opportunity to live or die, and with a bit of force on his feet, he slid past Phoenix Diagram''s side like a skateboard.


    With a slight movement of the black ball in his hand, Phoenix Fairy Beauty launched an attack at Yun Ruoleng. However, he was still unable to hit her, and could only use a string of afterimages on her.


    It was only then that he realised that although Yun Ruoleng''s power had no effect on him, his own power of darkness had no effect on her either. However, her purification power had an effect on him, and the effect was very significant.


    "Bam!" Yun Ruoleng slapped towards Feng Tu''s shoulder.


    Phoenix Fairy Beauty took this attack head on, and bright red blood flowed out of the corner of her mouth. She looked at Yun Ruoleng with disbelief: "When did you reach the level of the Divine Magus?"


    The sword in Yun Ruoleng''s hand dissipated and he placed his hands behind his back on the rock. His delicate eyebrows slightly rose as he looked at Phoenix Diagram with a smile that was not a smile: "It was when you didn''t know about it."


    "You ¡­ "Cough, cough ¡­" Phoenix Diagram only felt that his internal organs had been shattered as it was difficult for him to breathe. His vision blurred, "Bang!" He fell to the ground.


    Yun Ruoleng''s mouth was wide open as he looked at the Phoenix Diagram on the stone and then glanced at his own palm. That palm just now did not use too much strength, it was only used to purify the power, how did he fall?


    "Phoenix Diagram?" Yun Ruoleng frowned, to make sure that he was truly dead, a strand of power was applied to his body. The Phoenix Diagram that was tightly shut suddenly opened its eyes, Yun Ruoleng was not aware that he was being rebounded by the energy around him, but his heart was in pain, and the blood in his body was churning.


    "No wonder Jun Qingshang likes you." This woman was as cautious as Jun Qingshang, what kind of person would marry what kind of wife, it was obvious.


    With great difficulty, Yun Ruoleng managed to calm his breathing. His almond-shaped eyes opened wide in shock, "Dammit, you actually faked your death!"


    "The art of war is not to be trifled with!" He had to find a quiet place to recuperate. He did not have time to talk to her, so while Yun Ruoleng did not notice, he quickly ripped open a space and crawled out.


    Yun Ruoleng teleported to try and stop him, but he was still a step too late.


    Jun Qingshang anxiously waited outside. Because he could not use his internal energy, he could only vent on the group of captured secret guards, beating them up until their faces were bruised, and only took in a breath.


    "Prince, they came out!" An Ying had been staring at the sky, and upon seeing lines appearing, he immediately stopped Jun Qingshang who was venting his anger.


    Jun Qingshang followed his gaze. The beautiful eyes slightly squinted as it held the long blade of a Black Wind Cavalry soldier in one hand.


    Jun Qingshang looked at the person who appeared out of the ripples without moving. After getting a clear look at him, his first reaction was to rush forward and kill him.


    "Your Highness, don''t be rash!" An Ying''s reaction was extremely fast, before Jun Qingshang could rush forward, his entire body had already latched onto his body.


    Jun Qingshang said coldly with a pitch-black face: "Let go!"


    An Ying did not forget the devilish look in her eyes when she left. Thinking back to how his master looked without any aura in front of her, he shook his head resolutely, "No, she said I can''t let you use martial arts!"


    "What are you waiting for!" Jun Qingshang wanted to shake off An Ying, but he had no other choice. In anger, he pointed his sword at the secret guard behind him and shouted, "Kill him!"


    The moment Phoenix Diagram saw Jun Qingshang, who seemed to have gone crazy, he had wanted to tease him for a while. A palm blew towards him, but fortunately, he reacted quickly and avoided it dangerously.


    After he finished speaking, the Phoenix Diagram disappeared in front of him, and the people who pounced on him to kill the Phoenix Diagram all became empty. An Ying''s heart, who was carrying Jun Qingshang, chilled for a moment, but he did not know how his master would take care of him after this.


    Yun Ruoleng''s body floated in midair, and the sacred and sacred blue light scattered everywhere. The originally exhausted Black Wind Cavalry instantly regained their spirits, and became even more agitated as they suppressed the black-clothed man.


    "An Ying, well done!" Yun Ruoleng descended from the sky like a fairy and lightly landed in front of Jun Qingshang. She lowered her head and gave Jun Qingshang a sweet smile, then scolded, "A villain who doesn''t keep his promise!"


    "¡­" Jun Qingshang''s entire body froze, the excitement from before had calmed down her heart, and her lips opened wide, as though she had realised that Yun Ruoleng was truly angry this time. She shook off the stunned An Ying, then pulled Yun Ruoleng''s hand in an attempt to bring her to her senses, "It won''t happen again!"


    Yun Ruoleng only glanced at him indifferently, laughed coldly and directly left.


    Jun Qingshang chased after her as he screamed in pain while covering his chest with his hands, his face pale. An Ying was shocked when he saw it: "Your Highness!"

 C359

    Yun Ruoleng, who was walking in front, stopped in his tracks. He turned around and saw that Jun Qingshang''s face was pale and veins were bulging on his forehead. He was shocked when he saw this and had no choice but to retract his steps, running towards Jun Qingshang.


    "Esteemed wangfei, the prince''s entire body is ice-cold, you ¡­" Yun Ruoleng stared at An Ying, placing his hand on Jun Qingshang''s body, he teleported out of the crowd. An Ying''s entire body shook, and after opening his mouth a silent sigh finally came out.


    "Protector Ying, what happened to the prince?" The Black Wind Cavalry Commander Rest furrowed his brows and couldn''t help but ask.


    An Ying finally understood why the princess glared at him before she left. If the news of the prince being poisoned were to be found out by others, their morale would be high. An Ying was still very smart. As he was asked by Feng Xing, he immediately smiled and said, "Your highness is pretending to be sick, trying to keep the wangfei here!"


    "But the prince''s face ¡­"


    "Are you stupid?" An Ying unhappily rolled her eyes at him. "Royal Concubine has both civil and martial skills. If you don''t act more lifelike, how would she believe you?"


    However, Yun Ruoleng had actually teleported Jun Qingshang back to the main tent with him. His face was covered with a layer of white frost, which made him look pale and weak.


    "I will save you." Yun Ruoleng quickly took out the Immortal-Suppressing Orb and the White Tiger Jade Pendant, both of them dripping with a drop of fresh blood. The two immediately clashed together as if they were connected through their souls, and then with a flash of dazzling golden light, another layer of the Immortal-Suppressing Orb broke and floated in mid air.


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart was filled with joy. Her small hands held onto the pearl tightly, placing it on Jun Qingshang''s hand, she started to use her Shaman Energy bit by bit. Very quickly, her face became pale white, and she felt all the strength in her body being sucked into the side of the bed.


    When Zephyr rushed in and saw this scene, his face immediately changed: "Quickly let go! Otherwise, your cultivation will be gone! "


    Yun Ruoleng''s face was pale white, the perspiration on her forehead was like pearls with their strings cut. Her feeble voice slowly sounded out: "No, I want to save him."


    "Lan Yi!" Liefeng''s face was livid, he angrily pointed at her nose and cursed, "Don''t forget that you still haven''t avenged your parents! How can you be so irresponsible? "


    Just as Yun Ruoleng wanted to refute, he felt a strong stench of blood from his mouth. His heart was filled with pain and blood could not help but flow out from the corner of his mouth. The strong wind was shocked, his palm struck open Yun Ruoleng''s hand that was holding her tightly, laying her on the bed. He used the Immortal-Suppressing Orb to transmit his Shaman Energy, in order to relieve Yun Ruoleng''s symptoms of depleted Shaman Energy.


    Fierce Wind helplessly looked at Yun Ruoleng: "This really makes me worry."


    When Yun Ruoleng woke up, he felt his head swelling up and his vision becoming blurry. Before she could speak, warm water was poured into her mouth.


    "Long time no see, Princess. How is it?"


    The familiar yet foreign voice made Yun Ruoleng unconsciously frown. He then raised his head, and revealed a sweet smile, "Uncle Left Envoy should call this wangfei as young master, or Yi''er.


    "That''s true." Black Robe was still wearing a black robe, and his entire body was covered in a layer of cold air. Wherever he went, the temperature would drop because of him.


    Yun Ruoleng was not afraid, she only looked at Black Robe and asked: "After that battle, you disappeared, where did you go?"


    After a brief moment of silence, Black Robe explained, "That group of Dark Magi isn''t simple. I''ve been tracking them, but unfortunately, I couldn''t find their exact location. In addition to that, the battle at the shrine hurt my internal organs, causing my internal organs to shatter, and my power stopped at the level of the Sorcerer, so I didn''t advance any further ¡­"


    "A lot of people died that year." Yun Ruoleng tightened his grip on the white jade porcelain cup, "Only the undead traitor is currently living a carefree life. Do you think we should take revenge for the dead?"


    "Of course. The reason why I took you out of here with great care and protected you from the shadows is precisely to wait for the day that you take your revenge. " Black Robe''s voice was cold, but he continued, "But before that, I''m afraid you have to settle the matter here first. I heard that Yue Ling has arranged a battle with your good husband. "


    Yun Ruoleng was startled: "How can it be this fast?"


    "Naturally, it is because a certain young lady''s corpse cannot be preserved."


    Just as Yun Ruoleng was about to ask further, Jun Qingshang''s voice came out.


    "Ruo Er, how are you?" The moment Jun Qingshang entered, he immediately rushed to Yun Ruoleng''s side and looked at it carefully. Yun Ruoleng immediately sized him up and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that his expression was normal.


    "Your poison?" Yun Ruoleng was still worried.


    However, Jun Qingshang shook his head and said: "It''s alright. Mister has already used the Immortal Suppressing Orb to cure me of most of the poison, so I only need to circulate my energy to heal myself." Speaking of which, this black robe really came at the right time. However, if Jun Qingshang knew that he was here to take Yun Ruoleng away, he wouldn''t treat Black Robe with such an attitude.


    After hearing his answer, Yun Ruoleng was completely relieved. He respectfully bowed to Black Robe to express his gratitude, and then quickly asked: "Phoenix Diagram has arranged a duel with you?"


    Jun Qingshang stared blankly. He did not expect Yun Ruoleng to know about this matter the moment he woke up, but he could only say, "Mn, this king had thought about it for a long time and decided to agree. This might prevent a war between the two countries. "If we can deal with him in such a way, it will save us a lot of trouble."


    Originally, he thought that Yun Ruoleng would object, but who knew that she actually nodded her head and said, "Mn, I''ll go with you. I suppose his real purpose was me. From his point of view, only I, as a Sacrificer, can revive the Phoenix Cry. "


    "No way!" Jun Qingshang flatly refused, "I will find someone who looks similar to you to bring there, you are not allowed to."


    "Do you think that ordinary people without any power would be able to fool the phoenix image?"


    "With Mr. Black Robe here, of course you can."


    Hearing Jun Qingshang''s words, Yun Ruoleng was simply about to explode with anger. She slapped Jun Qingshang hard on the back: "Are you stupid, or is he stupid? I don''t believe that after all these years of preparation, he won''t have the ability to differentiate between the two! "


    As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings were completely silent.


    "This King does not trust you." Jun Qingshang slowly said.


    Yun Ruoleng could clearly see the worry in his eyes, she could not help but sigh, she knew that Jun Qingshang was worried about her, but if she did not go, this war was unstoppable. Moreover, who knows what kind of crazy things the Phoenix Diagram would do.


    According to her knowledge, the Phoenix Diagram had a few dark witches in private. If it were to explode and suddenly attack the heavens, how would the normal people be able to withstand it?


    Therefore, Yun Ruoleng did not give up and insisted.


    Seeing this, Black Robe could not help but shake his head and say, "Let''s go together. Only when the two of you are together can you exert your greatest strength. If we separate and the Phoenix Diagram found out, then she would be in even more danger. "


    Under the combined persuasion of Black Robe and Yun Ruoleng, Jun Qingshang was finally convinced.

 C360

    On the day of their departure, the wind was strong, causing people to be unable to keep their eyes open, Yun Ruoleng laughed, and used his Qi to create a barrier, causing the wind to suddenly stop, and causing her messy hair to hang down.


    "Don''t waste your power." Jun Qingshang''s face darkened.


    "I''m happy." Completely ignoring Jun Qingshang''s dark expression, Yun Ruoleng smiled as he propped up the barrier. He even made snowflakes that floated down happily, "Look, is she beautiful?"


    Outside was sand and wind, but inside the protective screen, there was a snowflake falling. It was indeed a breathtaking beauty. But Jun Qingshang somehow felt uneasy and couldn''t help but soften his tone: "Don''t waste it, the battle will be very tough later."


    Yun Ruoleng made a sound of acknowledgement, but he did not retract them. Instead, he leaned into Jun Qingshang''s embrace and faintly said: "I know, but I want to see Snowy again with you. Just this once. "


    The worry in his voice was obvious. Regarding the outcome of the battle, Yun Ruoleng was not very confident.


    Sensing this point, Jun Qingshang no longer forced it and only hugged the woman in his embrace tightly, "Don''t worry, this duke will definitely take care of you."


    "Yes." Yun Ruoleng made a sound of agreement, but in her heart, she thought: She has to protect this man even more ¡­


    Black Robe, who was following behind him, couldn''t help but close his eyes. This bowl of dog food was truly too overwhelming.


    Once they reached the cave entrance mentioned in the Phoenix Diagram, Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang looked at each other, then turned around to look at Black Robe.


    After saying that, the two of them walked in hand in hand, with the black robe behind them helplessly following them.


    However, from the outside, this cave seemed to be quite normal. When he walked in, he noticed that something was different. It was clearly a cave on an ice mountain, but it was spring inside. There were all kinds of small flowers beside it, and the place was very lush.


    "Such a beautiful place ¡­" Yun Ruoleng felt that it was a pity, but when he looked more carefully, he realized that something was different. These flowers were all condensed with magic power, and were actually not real.


    As soon as he plucked a single flower, the flower instantly vanished into thin air.


    "For the sake of his sister, Phoenix Diagram has really put in a lot of effort." Yun Ruoleng could not help but sigh. Although she could understand what it meant to have a little girl as her love, using so many people''s blood and life to save them was not something she could agree to.


    "Indeed, but death cannot bring one back to life, and it is even worse to use this kind of evil technique." Jun Qingshang slowly said, but he was asking himself, if Yun Ruoleng died, would he be so crazy?


    "Mister ¡­" Yun Ruoleng wanted to ask Black Robe about that, but he couldn''t see anyone behind him. He held Jun Qingshang''s hand tightly, "Don''t let go!"


    Perhaps it was because they were holding hands that they did not separate. Yun Ruoleng took the chance and grabbed Jun Qingshang''s arm, and stuck close to him, afraid that he would lose the person beside him. Without her by his side, if Jun Qingshang went against the Phoenix Map alone, he might not be able to escape unscathed. After all, the methods of the Dark Mages were mostly sinister and it was hard to guard against them.


    At this time, the Phoenix Diagram was looking at the scene through the water mirror, and its teeth were itching from hatred. It even sent out an outpost to disturb Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang''s mental state.


    But no matter if it was luring or forcing, Yun Ruoleng and Jun Qingshang advanced hand in hand, and did not hold any grudges. This kind of sincere feelings instantly caused Phoenix Diagram to be almost burnt to ashes by the flames of jealousy.


    "Yun Ruoleng... Sacrifice for my sister! " Huang Tu said while gnashing his teeth, and he quietly waited for Yun Ruoleng to fall into his trap.


    Inside the frost filled ice room, Yun Ruoleng saw the enormous transparent ice coffin as soon as he entered, as well as the phoenix image that was standing at the side and caressing the ice coffin.


    His cold voice gradually rang out. "Little sister, don''t worry. Big brother will come to save you now ¡­"


    "Phoenix Diagram! "Stop being so stubborn. The dead used to be, but now you are adding to their sins!" Yun Ruoleng coldly snorted, but what replied her was Huang Tu''s cold attack, wrapped in a dense amount of black Qi.


    "You! Phoenix Diagram! " Yun Ruoleng was startled, he stared at the Phoenix Diagram''s almost pitch black eyes, he was extremely shocked.


    He actually sacrificed so much for his sister? Would he rather endure the pain of his soul being annihilated?


    "Stop!" Jun Qingshang pulled the dazed Yun Ruoleng, and was about to attack the Phoenix Diagram, but was pulled back by Yun Ruoleng, "No, you can''t beat him, he has already sacrificed himself to the Dark God, ordinary internal energy is completely useless against him. Right now, only Left Custodian is here, maybe I can go all out with him. "


    However, at this time, our Left Envoy is trapped in a mystic realm and is unable to leave.


    The attacks of the Phoenix Diagram became fiercer and fiercer, especially when Jun Qingshang was used to fighting. Even though Yun Ruoleng was always protecting Jun Qingshang, he was still beaten to the point of spitting blood.


    Before the added dark power, the abilities of ordinary people were not even worth mentioning.


    "Phoenix Diagram!" Yun Ruoleng was furious, trying to wake him up, but he had already lost his mind, all he knew was that he had to kill the person in front of him.


    Under the violent attacks, Yun Ruoleng was starting to find it hard to endure. Furthermore, she had to protect Jun Qingshang, so she felt that she had more energy than usual. When the Phoenix Diagram''s fatal strike arrived, the Immortal-Suppressing Orb suddenly jumped out, flashing a warm blue light. An illusionary shadow flashed past, blocking the fatal strike, following which the woman smiled gently at Yun Ruoleng, and the illusion disappeared with a bang.


    Only a gentle voice remained. "I''m leaving. You''re the true owner of the Immortal Suppressing Orb. Remember to hold it in your hand."


    As he finished speaking, Yun Ruoleng felt the connection between him and the Immortal Suppressing Orb growing closer and closer, the exhausted power of his body was replenishing quickly, and was even soaring continuously, causing Feng Tu to instinctively retreat, and then pounce towards Jun Qingshang who was lying on the ground with no way of resisting.


    As his hair intertwined, Yun Ruoleng waved her hand and the Phoenix Diagram was locked up. The blue energy coiled around him and slowly extracted the black color from his body, leaving only a miserable cry sounding continuously.


    The surrounding ice pillars were on the verge of collapse as they continuously smashed towards the ice coffin, even causing cracks to appear on it.


    It was an earth-shattering power.


    When all the dust fell to the ground, the awakened Phoenix Diagram was leaning against the side of the ice coffin, lowering his head to look at the gradually decaying body of Feng Nian Bing. A single tear flowed down his face, "It''s all because big brother is useless ¡­"


    He no longer struggled. Now that Yun Ruoleng had truly inherited the Immortal Suppressing Orb, he no longer had the power to steal it. What''s more, how could the clear-headed him really have done it?


    "You shouldn''t have saved me." "I am the one who wanted to kill you."


    Yun Ruoleng retracted the aura surrounding her body, and the Immortal-Suppressing Orb slowly fell down, imprinting itself on her forehead. It rotated into an icy-blue snow lotus, and then disappeared as if it had entered her body.


    "I think you will be able to redeem your sins if you live." Yun Ruoleng said coldly, but he immediately checked Jun Qingshang''s injuries. The majestic energy surged, and the injuries on his body healed up at a lightning fast speed.


    "Ruo Er?" , who had finally awakened, was slightly taken aback. After he saw the Phoenix Diagram, he immediately stood up in alert.


    This gesture made Yun Ruoleng''s heart warm, but he said to Feng Tu: "Look, this is true love. He''s not plundering, he''s not invading, he''s not taking, he''s protecting. "


    "Protect?" Phoenix Diagram gave a pitiful smile, "I''ve always been protecting my little sister ¡­"


    Why can''t I figure it out? Yun Ruoleng shook his head, and held Jun Qingshang''s hand: "I''m fine. Don''t worry, all of the Shaman Energy in his body has disappeared, I won''t be a threat."


    Jun Qingshang was startled for a moment, and felt that it was true, but slightly relaxed: "Ruo Er is truly amazing." The dignified Lord Regent spoke with a more spoiled tone, causing Yun Ruoleng''s heavy heart to loosen a little.


    Looking at the scene in front of him, the smile on Phoenix Diagram became dimmer and dimmer. He extended his hand to touch the face of the Phoenix Gaze within the coffin, and felt a rotten sensation. Tears immediately flowed down his face, but in the next moment, his eyeballs were occupied by the black light.


    A sinister laugh came from his mouth, "Since you have sacrificed yourself to me, this body is mine!"


    Yun Ruoleng''s heart trembled, but he was unable to activate the Immortal Suppressing Orb. That person was controlling the body of the Phoenix Diagram, his black eyes were filled with coldness: "Don''t waste your energy, you only have this little bit of power, and you want to use the Immortal Suppressing Orb to defeat me? Impossible. It''s better to just obediently accept your death! "


    A dense black aura surged forth. Yun Ruoleng was stunned for a moment, her intuition telling her that if she were to be hit by this attack, she would definitely die.


    But... The black aura suddenly dissipated, and suppressed pain came from Phoenix''s mouth: "You''re not allowed to kill her with my hands!"


    Looking up, there was an ice pillar stuck in the chest of the Phoenix Diagram. Fresh blood surged out, cutting off all of his life force.


    In Yun Ruoleng''s astonished eyes, he brought out a blood-stained smile and slowly closed his eyes.


    "Phoenix Diagram?" Yun Ruoleng didn''t recover for a long time, and in the end, it was Jun Qingshang who pounced on her, waking her up.


    The great battle had finally come to an absurd end. Heaven''s Initiation and Yue Ling had renewed their good fortune and worked together to develop, but Jun Qingshang no longer cared about government affairs. He only wanted to let that stinking brat manage the affairs of his own accord as he took Yun Ruoleng out for a sightseeing tour of the mountains and seas.


    From spring to autumn, and from summer to winter, they traversed thousands of rivers and thousands of mountains, swam through all sorts of scenery, and experienced all kinds of weird people and things. They also saw the Heaven''s Awakening and Yue Ling improve by a year, never again suffering from great wars, and lived a prosperous and peaceful life; they had not wasted their years of hard work and effort.


    The power of the dark Magi had almost disappeared from the continent as well. Everything was so calm that it seemed as if nothing had ever happened. Only a few people would start talking about this great battle that had never truly started.


    It was another clear year, and as the rain fell, the two stood in front of the grave read out by the phoenix, holding a bouquet of flowers in front, narrating their year''s experiences as an explanation. Afterwards, they slowly disappeared into the wind and rain.


    However, no matter what their future was like, whether they fought in the rain or in the wind, snow, or ice, they would not be separated anymore.
