Chapter 518

Xu Qi'an carried Mu Nanzi in his arms and walked into the bedroom. He lifted the quilt and put her down.

When she was cooking in the kitchen, Xu Qi'an had already made the bed.

When he left the capital, the bedsheets and quilt were well kept in the wooden cabinet and stuffed with insect repellent pills. Now he could take them out and use them directly.

"Sleep!"

Xu Qi'an silently put away the anesthetic gas emitted by the Gu poison, sat on the edge of the bed, grabbed Mu Nanzi's ankle, and gently took off the embroidered shoes.

Then it was the white socks.

Soon, a pair of white and tender feet were exposed in front of him.

They were as big as Xu Qi'an's palm. The curve of the instep was smooth, the toes were round, and the nails were trimmed beautifully and clean. Blue veins could be vaguely seen under the white skin.

The soles of her feet were pink. When he held them in his hands, they were like the most delicate and soft jade in the world.

Xu Qi'an pressed his thumb on the heels. Unlike his own, which had a thick layer of calluses due to years of martial arts practice, her heels were soft.

"Enough is enough, enough is enough …"

He forced himself to put down the two small feet, pulled the quilt, and covered the infinitely beautiful body of the princess.

Then he also put the little white fox in the quilt.

After thinking about it, he recalled the past when Shirohime was suffocated to the point of kicking its legs. He then moved it out of the quilt and wrapped it in a robe.

After blowing out the candles and closing the door, Xu Qi'an came to the courtyard and touched the side of the little mare's face.

"Little mare, the task of taking care of them is left to you."

The little mare, who had just finished eating beans, was in a good mood and rubbed the back of his hand with her face.

...

Shaoyin Palace.

In the spacious and luxurious bedroom, behind the triple-layered screen copied from the Peony and Two Cranes Picture, steam was rising.

The water in the red lacquer bathtub was splashing, and a pair of jade legs came out of the bathtub. Two maids in light gauze clothes were waiting on the side. One of them immediately unfolded the silk cloth and carefully wiped the water droplets off the master's body.

Another person took down the clothes hanging on the screen and helped his master change his clothes.

After a while, Lin An came out from behind the screen with her hair tied up. She wore a light blue silk undergarment and a royal blue dress.

She sat cross-legged on the bed and asked,

"Have you all brought the elixirs from the Imperial Medicine Room?"

The maid on the left said,

"Elixir, silver, clothes … They are all ready."

The maid on the right covered her mouth and laughed,

"Why did Her Highness prepare these things?"

The palace maid on the left slapped her and teased,

"You already know the answer, yet you still dare to make fun of His Highness. Be careful that I don't tear your mouth off."

The two maids were giggling.

Although His Highness said that he wanted to draw a clear line between him and that he no longer had any relationship with that person, in fact, he was secretly preparing pills, silver, and clothes. He was afraid that if that person was injured, he wouldn't have any medicine to eat; if he wanted to roam the Jianghu, he would lack money; and if he wanted to roam the outside world, it would be inconvenient to wear clothes.



They had served Her Highness for so many years, but they had never seen her like this.

What kind of person was Princess Lin An? She was the pampered princess who was favored by the former Emperor. People who were favored were generally heartless. When did she care about a man?

Lan Fan glared at them and asked casually,

"Is there any news from the mansion today?"

The mansion she referred to was the Lin An mansion in the imperial city, which was given to her by the former Emperor.

Lan Fan's tone was calm. It seemed to be a casual question, but her charming and moist eyes were full of expectation.

The two maids were quiet. They looked at each other and carefully replied,

"There is no news from the mansion."

The hope in her peach blossom eyes dimmed. She nodded with a forced smile and said, "Oh."

She waited in the palace for a day. He did not come to explain to her. She seemed to have been forgotten since that night when the Celestial Commissioner left.

Now, there was no news from the princess mansion in the imperial city, which meant that Xu Qi'an did not go there to leave a message.

She was stunned for a moment and said softly,

"I am tired."

The two maids left the bedroom and went to the outer room.

They could see that Her Highness was not in a good mood. She might hide under the quilt and secretly wipe her tears.

Although the maids knew Lin An very well, they still underestimated Lin An's backbone. She did not hide under the quilt and wipe her tears because the tears were still in her eyes and did not flow down.

She covered herself with the soft quilt and curled up on her side.

Lan Fan still did not understand that the dignified State Preceptor, a woman that even her Emperor Father could not get, was actually blind to fall for her dog slave.

When she recalled Luo Yuheng's arrogant and overbearing attitude that night, she was infuriated in her heart, and she wished for nothing more than to tear that old woman apart.

But she only dared to think about it in her heart.

If the rival in love was Luo Yuheng, Lin An had no confidence, although she was a princess and proud of her beauty. But Luo Yuheng could crush her with her identity as the Taoist Chief of Renzong.

She could not help but recall the bits and pieces of the past, the time when Xu Qi'an chatted with her and played chess with her. Tears finally rolled down from her eyes.

Lan Fan felt that she had fallen out of love, although she did not know this word.

More and more tears rolled down. She lay on her side, half of her face buried in the soft pillow.

"You can't cry before sleeping, or your eyes will become inflamed."

At this time, someone handed a towel to her from the inside of the bed.

"Oh," Lan Fan took the towel and wiped her tears. Then her delicate body stiffened and she felt that something was wrong. She suddenly jumped up from the bed and let out an ear-piercing scream.

While screaming, she saw the person on the inside of the bed. He was wearing a blue robe and a jade crown, dressed like a rich young master.

He was her dog slave.

"Bang, bang!"

There was a knock on the door. Two maids knocked on the door and called out,

"Your Highness, Your Highness?"

Lin An glared at Xu Qi'an fiercely and pulled up the quilt to cover him. She whispered,

"Don't make a sound …"

She sniffled and cleared her throat to make her voice sound normal. Then she said, "Come in."

The scream just now was too frightening. It was not something that could be dismissed by her saying "I'm fine". Because the maids would think that their master was being coerced inside.

They were all strictly trained maids, so it was difficult to fool them.

The door of the bedroom was pushed open. A maid came in anxiously, while the other maid stayed outside. She was very cautious and did not come in, so that she could run out of the room and call for help at any time.

The maid who came in looked around for a while, then looked at the bed and asked,

"Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Lin An said lightly, "I had a nightmare just now, but I'm fine now."

The maid stared at her red eyes for a few times and suddenly understood. She believed a little, and then looked at the big bed.

Fortunately, since the national treasury was empty, Yongxing Emperor reduced the use of imperial concubines and relatives in the palace, including the expensive beast gold charcoal.

Charcoal could no longer be as extravagant as before. Therefore, Lin An's things were changed from light "silk" and "quilt". They were replaced with a thicker "quilt".

The quilt filled with wool and eiderdown was thick and fluffy, which perfectly hid Xu Qi'an.

"Your Highness, is it too hot? Your face is burning badly. "

The maid said with concern.

"I'm fine."

The more flustered Lin An was, the more indifferent she looked.

"Your Highness is panting badly. Is it too stuffy?"

"Yes. Open the window a little and come out."

"Why don't I stay in the room?" The palace maid said.

"No, I'm not in a good mood. I want to be alone."

Hearing this, the maid did not insist. She glanced around the room and retreated.

After she left and closed the door of the bedroom, Lin An lifted the quilt and pushed the head on her chest. She was ashamed, angry, surprised and happy. She raised her eyebrows.

"Dog slave..."

As soon as the two words came out of her mouth, they were covered by Xu Qi'an. He raised his eyebrows in the direction of the door and lowered his voice.

"They haven't left yet."

Lin An turned her head and saw a shadow by the door. It seemed that she was eavesdropping on the movement in the room.

Xu Qi'an pulled the quilt to cover the two of them and said in a low voice with a smile,

"I didn't expect your servant to be so vigilant."

She didn't notice it before.

"They are all trained by the maids in the palace. The maids around the concubines in the harem are even more alert."

Lin An echoed, then she blushed and said angrily,

"Dog slave, how dare you! You even dared to climb onto this empress's bed!

"Go, go, go to Luo Yuheng's bed."

She stretched out her little hand and pushed him hard.

Xu Qi'an held her wrist and moved closer to her. They were so close that they could breathe on each other's face.

"Your Highness, I have been traveling for many days and I miss you all the time. I regret not having wings every day and night, or I can ride the wind to see Your Highness. "

After spending some time with the scumbag Saint, Xu Qi 'an had mastered the methods of coaxing girls and understood a core principle that he had never understood before.

To coax a girl, one must first stand in her point of view, then figure out what she wanted to hear and what attitude she wanted.

One couldn't stand in his own point of view.

If he coaxed her from his own point of view, he would lose.

For example, from Xu Qi'an's point of view, the National Master risked his own karmic fire to help stop the Black Lotus. Now her karmic fire had relapsed, and she would die in the Heavenly Tribulation if she didn't have dual cultivation.

As long as he had a little humanity, he should take off his pants for morality.

If he explained it in this way, Lin An would be furious now.

And from her point of view, what did she want to hear? What kind of attitude did she want?

"Your Highness's every frown and smile are deeply imprinted in my mind, making me yearn for you." Xu Qi'an reached out and put his arms around Lin An's waist. His eyes were sincere and his tone was sincere.

"But I know I did something wrong. Today, I was so worried at home that I didn't dare to face you. But I can't go against my heart, the heart that admires Your Highness. "

Lin An listened to the words of love in her ears, her heart beat faster and her cheeks were burning.

The grievances in her stomach disappeared, and her determination was also dissolved by sugar-coated bullets.

She snorted and forced herself to be ruthless. She pushed away his arm around her waist and turned her head,

"Is your excellency Xu the same when you coax other women?"

She tried to use her indifferent attitude to suppress this man.

Xu Qi'an stared at her delicate earlobe, resisted the urge to lick it, and sighed,

"Alas, it seems that no matter what I say, Your Highness will not forgive me. I will leave the capital tomorrow. I have no other request but Your Highness promise me one thing. "

The first half of the sentence made Lin An's heart sink and she felt anxious. After listening to the second half of the sentence, she quickly asked,

"What is it?"

She immediately felt that her tone lacked backbone, so she snorted, "I will deal with it at my discretion."

"I want to ask Your Highness to accompany me to see the brightest lights in the world."

Hearing this sentence, Lin An was stunned for a long time and did not understand what he meant.

But the next moment, she saw the dog servant pull up the quilt and cover their heads.

Subsequently, Lin 'an fell into boundless darkness. After a long time, light appeared in front of her eyes and she heard the whistling wind in her ears.

The night was heavy, and the lonely moon hung high.

She stood between heaven and earth, facing the cold wind, empty and lonely, but free.

Lin An looked around in surprise. She stood on a floating fort, and above her head was the moon with a cold glow, and under her feet …

She suddenly opened her eyes wide, and the lights of thousands of families were reflected in her watery and charming eyes.

Below her was the entire capital. Most of the outer city was dark, with occasional sporadic lights.

The brightest and most resplendent was the imperial palace, like a huge cluster of fireworks. The outer circle of the fireworks was the imperial city. The imperial city was also bright and bright, surrounded by thousands of lanterns.

The inner city, where rich and well-off people lived, was like the outer flames of the fire, like clusters of stars.

Lin An had never seen the night view of the capital, and she was stunned for a moment.

The most romantic thing she could think of was the song "Full Boat Clear Dream Covers the Milky Way" by Xu Qi'an. Now, this man let her see a different scenery.

"Don't catch a cold."

Xu Qi'an came over, took off his robe and put it on her, and held the beauty in his arms.

Lin An seemed to be drunk. Her eyes were charming, her face was red, and she was drunk.

Xu Qi 'an was not surprised by such a response. In fact, he had expected it. Lin An liked to be romantic, and it was almost difficult to resist this kind of offensive.

He would return the fort to Sun Xuanji later. This trick was useless to Huaiqing … In the future, he had to be better to the Son of God. After all, he had learned something from him … Xu Qi'an's thoughts were scattered, and Lin An's sleep-talking voice sounded in his ears.

"Dog slave, how about you propose to the emperor brother?"

In Lin An's view, the relationship between the two had been determined as early as the kiss when Xu Qi'an left the capital.

This man was not the object of mutual affection, but her lover.

"I will."

Xu Qi'an looked at her charming oval face. "But not now."

Whether it was him or Daibun, they would face a huge challenge.

If they won, they would sit on the right side of Lin An, Huaiqing, on the lap of the national master, and the princess would hide behind her.

If they lost, they would take turns.

…

It was late at night.

The palace maid carefully opened the door, tiptoed into the bedroom, and came to the bedside.

His Highness Lin An was wrapped in a quilt, sleeping soundly, and the corners of his mouth were raised, as if he was dreaming of something happy.

The palace maid was relieved and was about to leave when her face suddenly changed slightly. She saw that the snow-white neck of His Highness was covered with kiss marks.

This … The palace maid's scalp went numb and she looked around in horror.

After a while, she seemed to understand something, and her face suddenly turned soft.

…

In the same night, in a small city.

Ji Xuan stood on the roof ridge, overlooking the fight below.

That was Liu Hongmian playing with her opponent, a Jianghu person who had scattered pieces of Dragon Breath.

In these days, they relied on the secret channels of Tianji Palace to find several hosts of Dragon Breath.

There were Jianghu people traveling everywhere, refined scholars, and even petty officials on duty in the yamen, as well as women who were waiting to be betrothed.

Ji Xuan's plan was to collect as many pieces of Dragon Breath as possible, accumulating them to attract the nine hosts of Dragon Breath.

Of course, this could also attract Xu Qi 'an's attention.

"Hongmian, don't waste time." Ji Xuan reminded.

Liu Hongmian immediately knocked out the opponent.

Ji Xuan took out a palm-sized bronze cauldron from his bosom and muttered something. Light shot out of the cauldron, and the host of Dragon Breath was kept inside.

The bronze cauldron was called the Square Cauldron, and it was one of the gifts that the Imperial Tutor sent over after he knew about the matter in Yong Zhou City.

It was different from the ordinary magical equipment that could only store things, but it could store people.

Ji Xuan kept the small cauldron, looked to the northwest and murmured, "Xu Qi'an!"

…

The next day!

Ling Bao Temple in the capital.

In the quiet room, Luo Yuheng, who had slept for a day and two nights, slowly opened her beautiful eyes.
