People brought food to Ling Xuewei every day, and their attitude was very polite. She also inquired about the news, but found nothing.
The other party was very tight-lipped and didn't know anything else except their destination, Holy Emperor City.
Since Ling Xuewei was captured, except for the servant who delivered meals and Qin Mo, she has basically never seen anyone else. That Bai Qingshui has never been here even once.
She also eats and drinks well every day and concentrates on self-cultivation.
Now her whiplash has begun to scar.
After another two days, we finally arrived at the Holy Emperor City.
…
Bai Zhi Palace.
After being held captive for seven days, Ling Xuewei finally met the legendary White Emperor.
In the garden, he was watering the flowers, wearing white gloves on his hands, pruning the branches and leaves, changing the soil, fertilizing... At first glance, he looked more professional than the gardeners in the palace.
This is Bai Zhi Palace.
Solemn, solemn, and full of majesty.
"Please take a seat."
Ling Xuewei walked to the round table and sat down at the side. Bai Qingshui took off his gloves and came over, "The Jiutianxiang has just been made, want to try it?"
He cleaned his hands and made the tea himself, skillfully.
"Jiutianxiang has a quiet and mellow aroma. I guess you will like it."
Ling Xuewei really doesn't like tea that tastes too strong.
Ling Xuewei looked at Bai Qingshui, the Bai Emperor, whose first impression was that he was gentle and elegant.
Unlike Di Qianjue, Di Qianjue looks gentle, but is actually distant and cold. Bai Qingshui, on the other hand, has a sense of intimacy that makes people put down their guard.
This is the most dangerous.
This man has insight into people's hearts, is good at bewitching, and is an unfathomable person.
"Miss Ling, there is no need to be so vigilant. I have actually been admiring you for a long time. I would like to apologize in advance for my subordinate's recklessness. I would like to offer tea instead of wine to you."
Bai Qingshui raised the cup.
Ling Xuewei didn't move or speak.
Bai Qingshui didn't care about Ling Xuewei's attitude, "Is the injury on the girl's body getting better?"
"Thanks to you."
Hearing the sarcasm in her tone, Bai Qingshui smiled and said, "My people were reckless and hurt the girl. If the girl has any requests, just ask."
"Are you satisfied with what I mention? What if I want his life?"
Ling Xuewei's voice was neither fast nor slow, as if she was saying the most ordinary thing.
The air froze.
Bai Qingshui suddenly smiled, "Okay."
"If the girl has this ability, I will never stop her."
Ling Xuewei sneered in her heart.
"It's just a joke. Bai Di shouldn't mind, right?"
"Of course not, the girl is very funny."
"The same goes for Bai Emperor."
"Just call me by my name."
"The White Emperor has a distinguished status. How dare you, a little girl like Ling, call you by your first name?"
Bai Qingshui smiled but didn't say anything else.
far away.
Qin Mo looked at this scene.
"Mr. Qin, this woman is too bold. How dare the emperor let her go?" someone around asked.
"The emperor behaves according to the emperor's principles. How can we allow us to make irresponsible remarks? This woman is of great use to the emperor."
"What use can a woman be of? If you insist on saying it, she is nothing more than a pawn to threaten Mo Jiusu."
"Oh, then you underestimate her too much."
…
In the next few days, Ling Xuewei met Bai Qingshui twice more, and they chatted each time, but they never talked about anything substantive.
Bai Qingshui didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. He took her around Bai Zhi Palace, the garden, the back lake, the spirit beast farm, the medicine field...
Bai Zhi Palace looks gorgeous and majestic on the outside, but in fact the interior decoration is very simple and there are not many extravagant things.
There are even some places that are very down-to-earth.
There are many cultivated fields in Baizhi Palace, and many things are planted there. They are obviously carefully taken care of.
Vegetables, rice, and some fruits.
"Taste the sweet pears I just picked."
Under the tree, Bai Qingshui came over carrying a basket of pears. He was dressed in commoner clothes and did not have the airs and pomp of an emperor at all. He looked more like an ordinary person who had just finished farm work.
"I didn't expect Bai Emperor to have such a hobby."
"It's just a hobby. This kind of field is a meticulous job. Plowing the land, sowing seeds, fertilizing, weeding, and killing insects are all indispensable steps. Where there is too much water, there is need to fertilize. The weather is too hot today, and it will rain heavily tomorrow. There is nowhere to go.
Don't take it too seriously...this is not as simple as dealing with government affairs."
Bai Qingshui walked to the side and sat down, "Come and sit."
"However, no matter how complicated things are, as long as you find the rules, there are traces to follow."
Ling Xuewei's eyes flashed.
"Are you getting used to being in the palace these days?"
"Very good, thank you Bai Di for your trouble."
"If you need anything, let me know at any time."
At this time, Qin Mo came over and whispered a few words in his ear.
"I'll excuse you for now. Miss Ling, please help yourself."
Ling Xuewei watched them leave.
This Bai Qingshui, I don't know if he really trusts her or is too confident in the defense of his palace, so he allows her to come in and out. Except for the seals and colorful stones on her body, she is basically unrestricted.
"Girl, do you want to go back?"
"Just take a walk."
Ling Xuewei was in front, and the palace maid followed behind.
"Where is that ahead?" She pointed ahead.
"Go back to my lady, that's where the emperor discusses matters. Outsiders are not allowed to go in casually."
"Oh, then go back."
"yes……"
Ling Xuewei's residence is on the second floor.
"I suddenly want to eat small glutinous balls and shrimp dumplings and wontons."
"My servant will prepare it for you right now."
"It's time to work."
"Girl, you're welcome."
After the palace maid left, Ling Xuewei quickly went out, looking straight and calm all the way. When the palace maid saw her saluting, she nodded lightly and pretended to be casually strolling around.
Walking to the place where she had just come, which was a courtyard, she vaguely seemed to hear someone talking.
She quickly dodged to the shadows, and after a while, she saw Bai Qingshui and Qin Mo walking in.
"Master, our people have sent word that Jiuhe and his people have returned to Taichen Palace, but so far, there has been no action."
"knew."
The old man is here!
"Master, do you want me to..."
Bai Qingshui waved her hand, "No need. You go and prepare some things that the old man likes. I will visit him in person tomorrow."
"Yes. By the way, Master, are you indulging that Miss Ling too much?"
"How do you talk? She is my honored guest."
"Master, she belongs to Mo Jiusu. She was rude to you before. You..."
Bai Qingshui glanced at him lightly, and Qin Mo immediately fell silent.
"Qin Mo, you are the most capable person around me. Don't let your personal emotions affect your judgment."
"……yes."
"By the way, how about over there at Maplewood Mountain?"
"Mo Jiusu is still unconscious. Our people have successfully infiltrated and are just waiting for your order. Now, there is no leader on the other side of Fenglin Mountain. This is a good time."
Qin Mo made a gesture, "Kill him while he's sick."
Ling Xuewei's heart was beating wildly in the dark, and she tried her best to steady her breathing.
"Go and get ready."
"My subordinate understands."
After watching the two people leave, Ling Xuewei came out of the shadows. (To be continued)
