After listening to Xiao Chen's narration, Murong Danqiu was also very angry. The Queen Mother was really greedy!
I really don’t know what she thinks?
If you call her the Queen Mother, even the emperor will kneel down and worship her when he sees her, she is the supreme woman in the world.
If she had any money, she wouldn't be able to spend it all in ten lifetimes.
Your position has reached an extremely high level, so why are you still not satisfied?
"This old witch not only wants fame and fortune, but also power... to fight for power with her biological son!" Xiao Chen also couldn't understand what the Queen Mother did. Did she still want to listen to politics behind the curtain or live as a queen before she died?
addiction?
"None of this is what I want." Murong Danqiu said softly.
"Dan Qiu, just tell me what you want. Even if it's the moon in the sky, I will find a way to pick it for you!" Xiao Chen said.
"What do you think?" Murong Danqiu looked at Xiao Chen with meaningful eyes.
"Uh...you don't want me, do you?" Xiao Chen said with a salivating smile.
"Bah!" Murong Danqiu spat in his face.
"Are you joking? Why are you so anxious?" Xiao Chen wiped his face, "I have to go, the emperor has decreed that I go back as soon as possible. I also have to walk around the palace and say goodbye to everyone."
"Then you have to be careful. When can you come back?" Murong Danqiu sent him out as if she were a newly married daughter-in-law sending her husband off to work.
Xiao Chen's mind wandered for a moment. This scene was so familiar, as if he had experienced it personally at some point in time.
This feeling is very magical, but many people have experienced it. Scientists call it ‘déjà vu’.
It is said that it is caused by some kind of activity in the brain... but it cannot be explained.
It's obviously an illusion, but it's so real.
I have to say that this world is really mysterious!
"I'll be back. Just wait for me here and don't run around, okay?" Xiao Chen made a joke in order to cover up this sudden and wonderful feeling.
Especially inappropriate.
"Where can I run?" Murong Danqiu sighed quietly.
"Best in peace, my dearest lady, I take my leave!" Before leaving, Xiao Chen still had to put on a show.
In fact, he knew very well in his heart that Danqiu didn't want fame, fortune, power or even herself. What she wanted was freedom.
Life is precious, but love is even more valuable. If you want freedom, you can throw away both!
After bidding farewell to Danqiu, he went straight to Bixiao Palace. When he reached the gate of the palace, he suddenly realized that Duanmu Nanqiao was 'dead' and his heart suddenly felt at a loss.
"Master Xiao, are you here?" Then he saw a palace maid in plain clothes walking out of the courtyard and bowing to Xiao Chen Yingying. It was Chao Yun.
"Huh? Oh, I was going to see Concubine Liu, but I don't know how I ended up here." Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"Sometimes I feel that the imperial concubine is still there, and I can hear her reciting poems in my dreams." Chaoyun said softly.
"Chaoyun, you have lost a lot of weight. What are you..." Xiao Chen asked.
"I am keeping filial piety for the imperial concubine." Chaoyun said softly, "I always feel that her soul is still here. If I leave, I am afraid that she will be alone."
In fact, she is alone.
"Chaoyun, you are crazy. Death is like a lamp going out. There is no soul left." Xiao Chen sighed.
"Master Xiao, I am only telling you this." Chaoyun looked around and whispered in Xiao Chen's ear, "I think the imperial concubine is not dead, she is still alive."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xiao Chen was startled.
"Sigh... If you don't even believe me, Mr. Xiao, then maybe I am really stupid." Chao Yun sighed leisurely, "But the night before the death of the imperial concubine, she said many things to me, and she also
She told me to go to her home in Jiangnan to see if her bedroom was dusty."
"Her ravings are the result of a serious illness, do you take them seriously?" Xiao Chen said.
"Well, that's because I think too much, but it's because I miss her too much, right? Mr. Xiao, I want to ask you for a favor..." Chaoyun was a little embarrassed, "Can you get me out of the palace?"
Really? I want to go to Jiangnan."
"Okay! Just clean up now, and someone will take you out later!" Xiao Chen readily agreed. This little thing was a piece of cake for him.
It is said that even the imperial concubine was taken out, let alone a young female official.
"Really?" Chaoyun was overjoyed.
"Come to my house to find me after you go out." Xiao Chen waved his hand and walked away.
A sudden thought occurred in my mind, could it be that Nan Qiao returned to Jiangnan?
But when I went to her house, why didn't she come out to see me?
After wandering all the way to Chuxiu Palace, Liu Ruyun was not reserved at all when she saw him. She jumped up and sat on his lap. Without saying a word, she kissed him a few times.
"Hey, don't make trouble. If I go out with your lip marks on my face, I will be dead!" Xiao Chen was quite cautious now.
"How can you have any shame?" Liu Ruyun reached out to help him wipe away the non-existent marks on his lips, "You have no heart yet. Look at your absent-minded look. Which woman are you thinking about? Tell me honestly!"
Speaking of women, Xiao Chen thought of Ren Tiantang and the luminous pearl Ling'er gave him. He almost forgot...
"Ah, what a beautiful night pearl!" Liu Ruyun was overjoyed and kissed him hard on the mouth again.
Pearls are nothing, I kiss you because you have me in your heart!
"Don't thank me, it was Ling'er who gave it to you. She knows you like Night Pearl." Xiao Chen gave this small favor to Ling'er.
"Humph, Ling'er is better than you!" Liu Ruyun said in her heart, you are a petty guy, you are jealous just because Princess Xia gave me a luminous pearl. You already know that Xia is a girl, but you are still jealous! Just be jealous.
He refused to admit that he was jealous and blamed it on Ling'er.
But you are so stupid. The more jealous you are, the more I like you.
"By the way, I'm asking you a favor. I just passed by Bixiao Palace and met Chaoyun. She wants to leave the palace. Please do me a favor and send her out. Without further ado, let's send her out today." Xiao Chen said yes.
He asked Liu Ruyun in a commanding tone.
"Chaoyun?" Liu Ruyun suddenly became suspicious, "You are not attracted to that little girl, are you?"
"If I fell in love with her, would I ask you for help? I can't do it myself?" Xiao Chen means that I am giving you a chance to help me.
"Is my father okay?" Liu Ruyun then asked her father, which was really unfilial.
"Speaking of which, our father is really interesting. He gave me twenty warships, but they were detained by Li Feng. I'm so angry that my liver hurts!" Xiao Chen said.
"Hey, be careful what you say, that's my father!" Liu Ruyun said angrily.
"Your father is also my father-in-law, they are all the same." Xiao Chen smiled playfully.
"You little slave is getting more and more wanton!" Liu Ruyun was so angry at him that he immediately raised his eyebrows, "Why does Li Feng seize our warship?"
"He is the prince and I am just a slave. Doesn't that mean I can detain him whenever he wants, kill him whenever he wants, and do whatever he wants?" Xiao Chen sneered.
"Well, I'm afraid he is going after Li Shi." Liu Ruyun said, "If you can bear this tone, I don't think Li Shi can bear it."
Liu Ruyun was so smart that Xiao Chen was impressed again.
