The green leaves drifted down from the branches and slowly landed on the expensive wool carpet without making any sound.
Lu Chenjia looked at the beautiful patterns on the wool carpet quietly. She looked at the lonely green leaf in the middle of the pattern. No one knew what she was thinking. After a long silence, she said softly, "My feelings for him are as natural as the orchids in the valley. Why did I mention it? Do I want to prove something?"
Mo Shanshan answered directly, "He said that this is a public display of affection and a sign of lack of confidence. I don't know what it means to show off. I don't know why he said that, and I don't know what you want to prove either. But I know that orchids growing in the valley is natural. When you moved the flower in front of me and carefully cut it, it was no longer natural."
She did not say anything else. She did not bid farewell and turned to walk out of the screen.
Lu Chenjia stood up. Her eyes that were as clear as autumn water showed a faint dimness. She looked at her back and said, "The hot tea you wanted has not been served. Why are you in such a hurry to leave? That is the Intoxicating Grass that I specially brought from Peach Mountain. I remember that you liked it the most back then. "
Mo Shanshan stopped in her tracks. She did not turn back and replied calmly, "Compared to a cup of tea, I actually hoped to see you in the camp under the meadow. Then you could treat me to a cup of plain water."
Lu Chenjia's hand that was holding the small scissors turned pale. She said softly, "At the beginning, I did not know that you were in the camp. I also did not think that the Horse Gang could threaten you. If you were really in danger, do you think that I would still sit quietly in the carriage and ignore you?"
Mo Shanshan reached out and held the side of the screen. She said, "I have said that this is not about you and me. It is about the world. You can ignore the external feelings of joy and sorrow, but I cannot and do not want to be that kind of person."
…
…
The screen slid open, and the girl in white with an indifferent expression slowly walked out. The disciples of Black Ink Garden who were drinking tea outside and had nothing to do all stood up to welcome her. The students of Revelation Institute on the opposite side also stood up.
Mo Shanshan looked at Zhuo Zhihua and nodded gently. Her peers then knew that the Hill Master was not polite to the Flower Addict during the conversation inside the room. Suddenly, their chests were filled with joy.
Ignoring the enthusiasm of the Revelation Institute's students to ask them to stay, and not even bothering to say a word, the disciples of Black Ink Garden proudly walked out of the magnificent tent with their heads held high.
Outside the tent, the blue sky was high and far. There was not a single cloud. The girl in white squinted her eyes and looked at the sky. She thought about how Lu Chenjia had finally lowered her head and lost her arrogance. She could not help but feel relieved. Only then did she understand that this was bullying. Only then did she understand that the so-called revenge was not limited to words or fists.
Thinking of this, she looked back at Ning Que, who was standing quietly in the group of girls. She thought to herself, "As a disciple of the Academy of the Tang Empire, he should be generous, but why is he so meticulous?"
The girls of the Great River Kingdom returned to their own campsite and could no longer suppress their curiosity. They began to ask the Hill Master what she had said to the Flower Addict. The tent was filled with chatter and bustle. Even Ning Que looked towards her.
After a moment of silence, Mo Shanshan repeated the previous conversation.
"The joys and sorrows of the world have nothing to do with her? Does Senior Brother's death under the meadow have nothing to do with her? It seems that we, the people of the world, are not even comparable to a flower in the eyes of the Princess. "
Cat Girl held the box and said loudly, unable to suppress her anger. If this square box was a gift from Black Ink Garden to the Revelation Institute, why did she bring it back?
"The Flower Addict Princess seems to be quiet and gentle, but her heart is not in the world. This matter has nothing to do with her. The ones who deserve to die are the cavalrymen of Divine Hall and the old woman who is standing on the meadow and watching coldly."
Zhuo Zhihua shook her head and looked at the box in Cat Girl's arms. She frowned and asked curiously, "What is this?"
"This is a secret weapon. Yesterday, Senior Brother Zhong and I spent 100 taels of silver to buy it from someone."
Cat Girl hugged the box tightly and snorted. She said indignantly, "It's a pity that Senior Sister Shanshan refused to use it."
Mo Shanshan gently smoothed the paper on the table with her right hand. A few strands of hair fell from her ears. She said, "Even though Chenjia didn't say it, I have already taught her a lesson. There's no need to humiliate her further."
Ning Que could not help but shake his head when he heard this. In the traveling carriage, he had taught the Calligraphy Addict on the first day. There was an eternal truth that one had to be beaten to death. Asking for justice and bullying was not much different from beating someone up. Since they were going to fall out with each other, of course, they had to humiliate the other party to death.
He looked at the Calligraphy Addict, who was about to start practicing calligraphy again. He suddenly realized that ever since he entered the back of the mountain of the Academy, he had been obsessed with cultivation and had forgotten about writing for a long time. Suddenly, he realized something else. Ever since he had combed her hair once in the carriage at the tragic camp, she had maintained this hairstyle. Her black hair was simply tied behind her back, revealing her fair and beautiful face, making her look even more graceful and elegant.
Zhuo Zhihua said to the crowd, "The Divine Hall will convene a meeting in the afternoon to discuss the matter of assisting the Palace and sending troops against the Desolate Man next year. Disciples of all sects must attend. Everyone, eat early and don't waste time."
The grassland people lived on mutton and there was no rice in their meals. Even though the Palace had shown enough sincerity to the people from the Central Plains, the most expensive and scarce rice would, of course, be given to the Divine Hall and the Tang army first. Therefore, the disciples of the Black Ink Garden still had oily mutton and mutton soup for lunch today.
No matter how much they cooked, mutton was still mutton. After leaving the Blue Loin Sea, these girls had almost never eaten anything else. Yesterday, they had eaten too many new things at the Ge Mumu meeting. At this time, looking at the plate full of mutton, they found it difficult to get sick of it.
Only Ning Que was still eating carefully. It was said that poor children matured early. So a child who had encountered a rare famine and was tortured to the point of death when he was young would never waste food when he grew up.
While chewing slowly, his brain was also working quickly, thinking about other things. The Horse Gang from the grassland came to kill him, which meant that his identity must have been exposed. But he did not know to what extent and how many people in the Palace knew of his existence. The Tang camp in the east was full of the elite cavalry of the Northeast Border Military. What was the relationship between General Shu from Chang 'an and Xiahou? According to the analysis of His Majesty's secret edict before he left, once he revealed his identity, General Shu's buttocks should be sitting next to his buttocks.
Until now, he still did not think that the Big Black Horse was a big possibility of his identity being exposed. It had to be said that the great His Majesty and the handsome Old Chao from the Spring Breeze Pavilion had met countless people in their lives, but they had made a big mistake in using Ning Que. If he was a general, he would definitely be able to defeat everyone, but if he was to be a gold medal secret agent, he would be quite a failure.
…
…
After lunch, Ning Que wiped his oily mouth and took the slightly heavy square box from Cat Girl and held it in his arms. Under the warm winter sun, he walked to the bustling area near the Palace.
The Ge Mumu gathered a large number of people. Where there were people, there would naturally be business. The lively grassland was where the merchants gathered. Other than the neighboring tribes selling their goods, there were also a few brave caravans from the Central Plains. Somehow, they managed to follow the Divine Temple's negotiation team to this place.
The things in the box in his arms were goods that a merchant from the Yan Kingdom had specially brought to win the favor of the Chanyu Princess. Last night, he had paid a high price of a hundred taels of silver and even used the name of the Flower Addict Lu Chenjia to barely buy it.
Since Mo Shanshan did not want to use it, and he could not bring it back to Chang 'an, he naturally did not want it to freeze to death in the cold Wilderness. So he decided to ask the Yan Kingdom merchant for a refund, even if it was only 80 taels of silver. Even though he was now an invisible tycoon in Chang' an, 100 taels of silver was a huge amount. Not to mention that he would not be able to report it to Sangsang when he returned, even if it was only 80 taels of silver.
However, before he reached the place, he was stopped by someone.
Hearing the gradually gathering footsteps around him, Ning Que could not help but raise his eyebrows as he looked at the cold and arrogant Revelation Institute student in front of him. He thought to himself that these people were after all believers of Haotian, and they would not be like the gangsters in Chang 'an West City who would pull out their swords after blocking the street. So he did not move.
More than a dozen Revelation Institute students surrounded Ning Que in the middle. They seemed to be standing loosely, but in fact, they had blocked all possible escape routes. However, as Ning Que expected, these people did not rush up to beat him up. The arrogant Revelation Institute student in front of him even bowed politely.
The student of the Revelation Institute said, "Senior Brother of the Black Ink Garden, could you please meet someone?"
Ning Que completely believed that if he said it was not convenient, then what was going to happen next would be very inconvenient for the children to see. He was not afraid of anything, but he guessed that the person who could mobilize so many Revelation Institute students to invite him to meet must be that girl. So he smiled and obediently followed them.
On a green meadow outside the tent, the princess of Yuelun Kingdom, Lu Chenjia, sat on a snow-white horse. She raised her hand and signaled for everyone to leave. There were only two people and a horse left on the meadow.
She looked down at Ning Que quietly with a strange expression. After a long time, she said softly, "I have known Shanshan for many years. Although we have not seen each other for a while, we still write to each other. What is strange is that the Calligraphy Addict who spoke to me in the tent today seems to have changed into another person."
Ning Que did not expect the girl on the horse to start asking questions so directly. He could not help but feel that it was a little sudden. He did not even have the time to look closely at what this legendary beauty looked like.
Lu Chenjia did not wait for him to reply and said with a serious gaze, "She said that she learned a lot from someone. I am very curious about who that someone is, so I took the liberty to invite you over to ask."
Ning Que was slightly stunned and replied sincerely, "I do not know what Your Highness is talking about."
Lu Chenjia looked up into the distance and did not even look at him. She said, "I also do not know when the Black Ink Garden of the Great River Kingdom had a male disciple like you. Who … are you?"
Ning Que clenched his fists and swore bitterly in his heart that if His Majesty wanted him to be a spy after returning to Chang 'an, he would not be stupid enough to agree again. He would not hesitate even if it meant that he would die a little later.
