Seeing that Chen Yuanyuan was so tired that she could barely open her eyes, Song Qingshu said to her, "You just recovered from your internal injury. You need to rest for a while. Besides, I don't know why Huang Chang wants to kill you. Stay here and recover for the time being."
"En ~" Chen Yuanyuan looked at him tenderly. She should hate this man, but she didn't know why, but she couldn't bring up the slightest bit of hatred in her heart. Instead, it was replaced with incomparable embarrassment.
"I don't know how many girls he has hurt to get the ability to make people live and die." Thinking of his evil fingers, Chen Yuanyuan's cheeks were burning.
She secretly spat, "To think that I thought he really loved and cared for me. I didn't expect him to be no different from other men. He's just as lustful."
But soon she shook her head and sighed, "It's all because I'm too sensitive. No wonder he couldn't control himself in that situation."
Thinking of the scene where she hugged him tightly with her legs trembling, Chen Yuanyuan wished there was a hole in the ground to hide in. She had been cultivating hard all these years, but she didn't have the strength to control herself.
"After all, he doesn't just want to sleep with me like other men …" Recalling the tenderness of his fingers, Chen Yuanyuan couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Coupled with the physical exhaustion, she soon fell asleep.
Li Yuanzhi pulled Song QingShu aside and pouted at Chen Yuanyuan, who was on the bed. She whispered, "Is this woman sick? One moment she's crying, and the next moment she's laughing for no reason."
"Ahem …" Song Qingshu answered guiltily, "She has just recovered from her serious injury. It's normal for her to see some illusions."
"Oh …" Li Yuanzhi nodded as if she understood. Then she curled her lips and said, "I don't want to be with this woman."
Song Qingshu said with a wry smile, "But now I'm too big a target in Lin 'an City. All the forces are watching me. If I take her out of the palace, I'll be easily discovered."
Li Yuanzhi pouted and said, "Do you have to take her with you? Can't you just send her back?"
Song Qingshu said in surprise, "Her identity is special and can be considered a rare commodity. How can such a person be casually let go? I haven't figured out how to maximize the benefits, so I'll leave her here for you to look after. As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. No one will think that she's still hiding in the palace. "
"Is it really not because she's beautiful?" Li Yuanzhi asked suspiciously.
"Of course not!" When Song Qingshu answered, he felt a little guilty and hurriedly changed the topic. "Leaving her here is equivalent to having a protective talisman for you. The reason why I entered the palace this time was because I was worried about the eunuch who gave you the poisoned wine that night. I was afraid that the same thing would happen again. Now that you have Chen Yuanyuan, you can use her as a protective talisman in times of danger. She can also buy enough time for me to save you."
"Oh, alright then." Li Yuanzhi reluctantly agreed.
"I'll have to trouble you to take care of her during this time." Song Qingshu looked at the sky outside and saw that it was getting late. "Sister Yuanzhi, Zhao Gou will host a banquet for me in the palace today. I have to go back to the inn and wait. Otherwise, if they can't find me and connect me to the assassin in the palace, it will be bad."
"Mm, Brother Song, be careful." Li Yuanzhi helped him straighten his clothes and then reluctantly bid him farewell.
Song Qingshu quietly left the palace. When he returned to the inn, the people from the Office of the Herald of Dependencies were indeed looking for him everywhere. When they saw him, they all cried out, "Oh my god, where did you run off to? The banquet is about to start, and we've been looking for you everywhere."
Song Qingshu shrugged nonchalantly. "It hasn't started yet, has it?"
The official from the Office of the Herald of Dependencies almost fainted. "It hasn't started, but we have to go there and wait. Are we supposed to let the Emperor sit there and wait for us?"
Seeing that he was going to continue, Song Qingshu hurriedly cut him off. "Alright, alright, I'm back now. Wait for me to change my clothes, then I'll leave." Finishing, he went back into his room and closed the door.
The reason why he wanted to change his clothes was because, first, he had just had intimate contact with Chen Yuanyuan. His body was filled with her scent, and he was worried that he would give himself away. Second, he had met Huang Chang in the palace before. Although he was wearing a mask, Huang Chang would definitely recognize his clothes. Song QingShu had always been careful, and naturally would not give himself away on this matter.
He crumpled the clothes he had taken off into a ball and used his pure Yang inner strength to rub it. The clothes instantly turned to dust. Only then did Song Qingshu go out and call the official from the Office of the Herald of Dependencies to enter the palace with him.
He could clearly feel that there were many more imperial guards in the palace than during the day. Song Qingshu knew that it was because of the scene he had caused in the afternoon, but he didn't think much of it. He continued to follow the official from the Office of the Herald of Dependencies to the palace where the banquet was held.
After walking for a short while, his heart suddenly jumped. He saw a woman wearing a light yellow robe walking towards him from afar. She was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, graceful and beautiful. However, her face was too pale, without the slightest hint of blood.
When the official from the Office of the Herald of Dependencies saw her, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly came forward to greet her. The yellow-robed woman casually waved her hand, indicating that there was no need for formalities. "You may leave. I will bring Prince Song to the banquet." Her voice was cold and distant, but it was still pleasant to the ears.
The official hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded his head and bowed.
After the official had gone far away, Song Qingshu smiled. "It seems that you have quite a bit of face. Should I call you Miss Yang or Miss Zhao?" The woman in front of him was naturally the yellow-robed woman that he had not seen for a long time.
"My face has always been very big. Only you don't take me seriously." The yellow-robed woman rolled her eyes at him. The two of them had been together for a long time in the palace of the Jin Kingdom and were already familiar with each other's temperament. "As for whether it is Miss Yang or Miss Zhao, I remember telling you before."
Song Qingshu shrugged. "I am a very busy person and have many things to do. How can I remember everything?"
The yellow-robed woman's face was originally calm, but his words made her teeth itch. However, she quickly realized something and smiled. "You are still the same. You haven't changed at all."
"Pfft, I have changed a lot. I almost died some time ago. When I was at my wits' end, you didn't help me. It seems that you are not a good friend." Song Qingshu curled his lips and said lightly.
The yellow-robed woman immediately looked apologetic. "I am sorry. I happened to be in the Western Region for some business at that time. When I found out about your accident, it was already a long time later."
If the scholars of the Southern Song Dynasty saw this scene, their jaws would probably drop. The Holy Maiden of the Academy, who had always been harsh to everyone, was actually begging a young man in such a soft tone.
Song QingShu smiled faintly and did not comment on this.
The yellow-robed woman stomped her feet and chased after him. She said angrily, "I originally came here to denounce you. I didn't expect you to beat me to it."
Song Qingshu was stunned. "Denounce me for what?"
The yellow-robed woman snorted. "Someone said that he wanted to marry the two princesses of the Great Song to be his concubines. What a big tone."
"So you are fighting for your sister." Song Qingshu suddenly smiled. "But before you do that, can you first repay the debt you owe me?"
