The annual Shangyuan Festival is coming, and the entire Yanhua City is bustling with excitement. The same is true in the palace. The maids, eunuchs, and female guards are all preparing for the dinner in the evening. Somewhere in the palace, Qi Kongming’s residence
, but it was very quiet, Qi Kongming himself was sitting cross-legged on the bed, practicing.
Qi Kongming's soul sea is just a little short of being filled with his own soul power. In other words, Qi Kongming will soon be able to break through to the realm of the four-coin magic master. Of course, Qi Kongming can't break through now and has to suppress his own realm.
.
Qi Kongming slowly stopped practicing. He could no longer continue practicing. Otherwise, his realm would not be suppressed. He had to stop practicing. He looked at the sky outside and found that it was already dusk. The training time had indeed passed.
It was quick. Qi Kongming stretched, pushed open the door, and walked out of the room. He looked at the palace maids and eunuchs coming and going outside the room, shook his head, and prepared to go for a walk. After all, he was quite free now, so he had no choice but to take a walk.
Cultivate your mind.
Suddenly, a palace maid walked quickly. Qi Kongming looked at her and recognized her. Isn't this Xiaocui, the palace maid of Princess Yuling? Where is she going?
While Qi Kongming was thinking, Xiaocui had already arrived in front of him, and Qi Kongming was startled.
"Miss Xiaocui, are you looking for me?" Qi Kongming asked, pointing to himself.
"Mr. Qi, the princess invites you to attend today's dinner." Xiao Cui said.
"Me? I'm not a prince or noble, and I have a wealthy family. Is it inappropriate for me to attend a royal dinner?" Qi Kongming said immediately, declining politely.
"The princess said, she said, do you still remember the thing you promised to the princess before? The princess said, you will attend the dinner." Xiao Cui said calmly, as if she had expected Qi Kongming's answer.
"This...I thought it was just a joke in the chess game?" Qi Kongming still declined politely. He did not want to get involved in royal affairs. Being a guard was his duty. If he attended the dinner, he might easily fall into it.
It's a royal matter. But he didn't expect that the bet he made with Princess Yuling a few days ago
Ding, Princess Yuling still remembers that when he was playing chess with Princess Yuling, Princess Yuling said that if Qi Kongming lost, she would promise her something. Qi Kongming agreed without thinking too much. Later, Qi Kongming lost, lost
It was quite normal, because he didn't know how to play Go. He didn't expect that Princess Yuling would still remember this matter.
"The princess said that a gentleman's words are hard to follow, and he said that he would definitely not refuse." Xiao Cui continued, as if she was endorsing her words.
"This..." Qi Kongming said hesitantly. Indeed, Qi Kongming did not think that he was a gentleman, but he thought that he was a person who kept his promises.
"Okay, tell the princess that I will go." After some struggle, Qi Kongming agreed. He thought that he would go back after completing the mission anyway, and he would not stay too long and would not lose anything.
"Okay, Mr. Qi, by the way, the princess also said she would come and pick you up," Xiao Cui said.
"Pick me up? That's not good," Qi Kongming said.
"Young master, you just need to wait in the room. The princess will come over." Xiao Cui continued, as if he could not tolerate Qi Kongming's refusal.
"Okay." Qi Kongming scratched his head and said, he always felt something was wrong.
"In that case, I will take my leave first." After Xiao Cui finished speaking, he turned around and left. Qi Kongming looked at Xiao Cui's retreating back, thoughtfully.
"Forget it, the soldiers will stop you, and the water will cover you." Qi Kongming thought for a while, then suddenly felt relieved and turned back to the room.
At this moment, Xiaocui has returned to Princess Yuling's palace and is reporting something to Princess Yuling.
"Princess, Mr. Qi has already agreed." Xiao Cui said.
"He agreed?" Princess Yuling said, with a hint of doubt in her tone. In her plan, she had to take action. She didn't expect Qi Kongming to agree so quickly.
"Yes, Mr. Qi refused at first, but then he agreed for some unknown reason." Xiaocui answered truthfully.
"Okay, agree to it and dress up for me. The time is almost up and it's time to set off." Princess Yuling smiled and said, she was not entangled.
"Yes." Xiao Cui replied.
After a period of time, Princess Yuling finished dressing up, looked at herself in the mirror, and said, "Xiao Cui, am I beautiful?"
"Beautiful, of course you are beautiful, princess." Xiao Cui replied with a smile.
"Okay, let's go." Princess Yuling sighed inexplicably and said, so Princess Yuling set off, first going to Qi Kongming's residence to find Qi Kongming.
Qi Kongming was sitting in the room at this time, and Princess Yuling had already come to his door and knocked on the door. Qi Kongming immediately woke up from sitting there and looked at the door, stunned.
, the same was true for Princess Yuling, her hand stopped in mid-air and remained silent.
"Mr. Qi, the princess is here to pick you up." Xiaocui called out quickly when she saw Princess Yuling standing there quietly.
In the room, Qi Kongming came to his senses. What happened to me just now? Qi Kongming shook his head, walked to the door, and opened the door. At this moment, Princess Yuling's face was so close to Qi Kongming, that kind of beauty.
It was suffocating, and at this moment, both of them fell silent.
"I...I'll pick you up." Princess Yuling broke the silence between the two and said hesitantly.
"Oh, then let's go." Qi Kongming scratched his head, seeming a little embarrassed.
So, the two of them set off to Zhengxuan Hall to attend the Shangyuan Festival dinner. The two of them were unusually quiet along the way, their hearts were pounding, and they both asked themselves at the same time, what happened to me?
Already?
Soon, the two came to the outside of Zhengxuan Hall. Princess Yuling stopped, and Qi Kongming also stopped. Princess Yuling seemed to have made a big decision, and suddenly took Qi Kongming's hand.
He led Qi Kongming into the Zhengxuan Hall, but Qi Kongming was still in a state of shock.
Entering the Zhengxuan Hall, the princes, nobles, civil and military ministers all came together, as well as their family members. At this moment, even the Lord Yanhua and Queen Yanhua were sitting on the dragon and phoenix chairs. At this moment, Yu
Princess Ling walked in holding Qi Kongming's hand and instantly attracted everyone's attention. They were all shocked. Zhengxuan Hall, which was originally noisy, suddenly became quiet.
Qi Kongming seemed to understand something in his heart at this moment. He thought of some previous things and some memories. He knew her purpose, and he also knew that she was using him, but he didn't know why, but he didn't hate it.
She, he thought, might be the prerogative of beautiful women.
And she herself was holding Qi Kongming's hand at the moment. She was a little shy at first, but now it seems like it's natural.
Princess Yuling ignored the gazes of others, took Qi Kongming's hand, walked to where the two of them were, and sat down.
The Zhengxuan Hall was still quiet, but Qi Kongming didn't notice this. As soon as he sat down, he leaned into Princess Yuling's ear and said, "Yuling, you are taking advantage of me."
"Yes, what's wrong?" Princess Yuling replied in a matter-of-fact tone.
"You can use me, but what's the benefit of me?" Qi Kongming said, and suddenly his tone became a little serious. Princess Yuling's face was slightly red as Qi Kongming's hot air blew against her ears.
"What benefits do you want?" Princess Yuling gently pushed Qi Kongming away and said. The feeling of hot wind blowing in her ears made her a little uncomfortable. Chen Yuling, Chen Yuling, what's wrong with you? You're not usually like this.
How could you let a man get so close to you?
"It's nothing, I'm just teasing you. Also, it's only this time. If you use me again next time, I will fall out." Qi Kongming straightened his sitting posture and said.
"You..." Princess Yuling originally asked Qi Kongminghui to speak loudly. After all, she was taking advantage of him.
In fact, Qi Kongming himself doesn't like others to take advantage of him, but Chen Yuling seems to be a little different.
Also, the two of them didn't realize that their series of actions seemed to others to be flirting, and the entire Zhengxuan Hall became even quieter.
Lord Yanhua sat on the dragon chair, holding a wine glass, and looked at this scene, seemingly not shocked. Queen Yanhua looked at this scene and secretly decided that she must find time after the dinner to test Qi Kongming.
.
The princes, nobles, civil and military ministers looked at this scene, and they didn't know what they were thinking in their hearts.
Sitting at the seat of the Wang family, Wang Shan watched this scene, filled with the desire to kill Qi Kongming. He remembered that when he saw Princess Yuling, he was impressed by her beauty. It was love at first sight, and he even felt a little tired of tea.
It means I don’t want to eat.
However, Wang Shan himself didn't know that he had never been looked at by Princess Yuling, because he was just a playboy, but he didn't know it, and he regarded Princess Yuling as his woman. It has to be said that
, he is really a bit wishful thinking.
Therefore, Wang Shan began to hate Qi Kongming when he heard the rumors, and at this moment, Wang Shan had murderous intentions for Qi Kongming. It has to be said that sometimes beauty is a disaster.
However, Qi Kongming had no idea. Even if he knew, he would just laugh it off because he knew he had nothing to do with Princess Yuling, and he was not afraid of this Wang Shan. (To be continued)
