After an unknown amount of time, the sun moved to the west and the shadows under the trees slanted, but the door still did not open.
Lady Biyue finally gave up helplessly. Her face was full of sadness and disappointment as she slowly walked back in a daze.
Miao Yi leaned over and said, "Why don't you let her stay with me from now on? I'll think of a way to get her an identity in the Sky Court and find a job for her in the City Guard Palace. She won't be wronged. It won't be too late for Madam to bring her along after she's thought it through. This way, we can avoid suspicion from outsiders."
He had never thought of this before. He only wanted to hand Hai Pingxin over to Biyue and there would be nothing left for him. But now, Hai Pingxin didn't even want to see Biyue, let alone leave with her. Even if he took her away by force, it would be difficult. Thinking of Jin Man's request, and the fact that the girl was in such a dilemma because of him, he couldn't just ignore it.
Biyue raised her head and asked, "Aren't you afraid that you'll be dragged into this?"
If it really comes to light, so what if I'm involved with the traitor's daughter? I'm the traitor's leader! Miao Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head, "If it really comes to light, I won't be able to get away just by hiding it. Why would I care about this? I've already offended all the nobles in the court anyway. I just hope Madam will remember my kindness and forgive me if anything happens. "
Bi Yue pondered for a moment. Truth be told, she was worried about leaving Hai Pingxin in Miao Yi's care. More importantly, Miao Yi was too good at stirring up trouble. However, it really wasn't a good idea to let a third party know about this matter. No matter who she entrusted Hai Pingxin to, they would still find it strange and be curious about Hai Pingxin's past.
She thought for a moment and nodded, "You can forget about the gifts you give me every year."
This was an agreement to Miao Yi's suggestion. It was tantamount to leaving some benefits for Miao Yi to help take care of her daughter.
Miao Yi waved his hand, "Madam has to move up as well. Only when your position is stable will you be able to shelter me better. Besides, if you stop giving me gifts, I'm afraid the people around Madam will be suspicious. Don't worry, Madam. I can still afford Hai Pingxin's cultivation resources. Just give her enough and I won't mistreat her. In the worst case, if I'm really short on money, it won't be too late to ask Madam then. "
Lady Biyue was a little surprised by Miao Yi's reaction. She pondered for a moment and nodded, "Of course. Let me know if anything happens. Give this to her." With a flip of her hand, she took out a Star Bell. It was the same one Miao Yi had given her when he threatened her earlier. It was the Star Bell that connected her to Hai Pingxin.
Miao Yi had just received it and put it away when the Second Chief Steward, Lan Xiang, suddenly rushed over and urgently informed, "Madam, the Marquis is here."
Madam Biyue and Miao Yi were both startled. Before they could think, Marquis Tianyuan's figure had already appeared in the moon gate of the garden. He strode over with a dignified appearance. Two subordinates followed behind him. From afar, he smiled and said, "Madam, you really made it easy for me to find you."
The sudden appearance of Marquis Tianyuan made Bi Yue nervous. After all, her daughter was right next to her. If her daughter saw her, she would be embarrassed. She looked back at Lan Xiang and said, "Did you tell him I was here?"
Lady of up, not, not, not. "Of Biyue of, of.
"She of of of of her, and, and not.
"Madam, don't blame Lan Xiang. I forced her." As he approached, Marquis Tianyuan chuckled. However, his gaze towards Miao Yi was a little deep. He turned around and asked Lan Xiang, "Where is Madam staying?"
Lan Xiang replied, "It used to be the main house."
Marquis Tianyuan held Lady Biyue's hand. "Madam, don't be angry. Let's go. I will apologize to you."
"Don't touch me!" Bi Yue shook off his hand and took a step back. She asked in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"
Whoosh! Lord Tianyuan's body flashed and he instantly picked Lady Biyue up. He laughed, "I was too harsh earlier. Of course, I'm here to apologize to you." With that, he carried her away. He turned around and called out to his two subordinates, "I won't be leaving today. I'll stay here for the night."
"Yes!" The duo cupped their fists and accepted the order.
Lan Xiang lowered her head and bowed.
Miao Yi's gaze subconsciously glanced at the small house in the garden. He realized that Hai Pingxin had appeared out of nowhere and was silently watching them from behind the window. Miao Yi then looked at Lady Biyue who was being carried away. He sighed in his heart. He couldn't stop them either.
However, Lady Biyue struggled violently and angrily said, "Let go of me! If you don't let go, don't blame me for being rude. "
With her cultivation, how could she escape from Marquis Tianyuan? At first, Marquis Tianyuan didn't mind. He knew his wife too well. No matter how angry she was, she would just sleep and serve him for a while. It wasn't the first time they fought.
However, Lady Biyue struggled with all her might. In the end, she even invoked her arts and shouted, "Is the City-Guarding Palace a place that anyone can just trespass? Someone, chase the unauthorized people out. Those who disobey will be executed! "
Whoosh whoosh! A group of City-Guarding Palace guards immediately rushed over. Even Yang Qing was among them. Seeing this situation, they didn't know whether to stop them or not. They all looked at Miao Yi.
Miao Yi also had a headache. He wanted to stop them, but could he? If he really offended Marquis Tianyuan and angered him, he would die for nothing. Marquis Tianyuan was Biyue's husband after all. Usually, Marquis Tianyuan wouldn't dare to touch Miao Yi. However, if he got involved in a dispute between husband and wife, he wouldn't even have a place to reason. Under these circumstances, a Great Commander of Heaven Street and a Marquis in the Immortal Ranking List, the Heaven Court wouldn't have to think too much about how to deal with him.
Reality proved that he didn't need to stop them. Being embarrassed in front of so many people, Marquis Tianyuan's face darkened. He couldn't get out of this situation. As a Marquis, he couldn't even control his own wife and made a fool of himself in front of so many people.
He didn't force it anymore and let Biyue struggle free. Then, he casually slapped her.
Pa! A crisp sound rang out. Just as Madam Biyue struggled out of his arms and stood still, she was slapped to the ground. Blood dripped from the corner of her mouth and she was gasping for breath. She couldn't get up for a while. Obviously, she was stunned. This also proved that Marquis Tianyuan didn't go easy on her.
Lan Xiang, Marquis Tianyuan's two attendants, and everyone else were shocked by this slap.
Miao Yi, on the other hand, was a little worried. He quickly looked at the small house in the garden, afraid that Hai Pingxin would run out in a hurry. Earlier, when Hai Pingxin heard that his mother was in danger, he attacked him without any hesitation. If he ran out and shouted 'Mother', then the world would be in chaos. No one here would be able to save the mother and daughter.
He really didn't expect Marquis Tianyuan to appear here at this time.
Fortunately, Hai Pingxin only grabbed the open window with both of her hands. She gritted her teeth and silently looked at this side, crying. She didn't rush out impulsively.
The scene was silent.
Marquis Tianyuan's face was cold. He apologized as soon as he arrived. He thought he had already lowered himself enough. Who would've thought this woman would be so unreasonable and make him embarrass himself in front of his subordinates?
Perhaps it didn't seem like much to outsiders, but he obviously didn't think so.
He slowly circled around Madam Biyue on the ground and slightly lowered his head to stare at her. The aura of a Marquis who had been on top for a long time was unmistakable. His body even emitted a slight murderous aura. Madam Biyue had so many subordinates here, but no one dared to step forward.
'Damn it!' Miao Yi really wished that Hai Yuanke was here right now. He wanted to see if Marquis Tianyuan would dare to be arrogant in front of him. But that was impossible. Even if it was possible, distant water couldn't put out a nearby fire. He immediately turned his head and transmitted his voice to Yang Qing, "What should we do? This bastard wants to kill us. Quickly think of something. "
Facing someone of Marquis Tianyuan's level and cultivation, there was no leverage that could be used in a hurry. What else could Yang Qing do? He could only quickly reply in secret, "Quickly contact Xiahou Longcheng. Tell him to contact his aunt, the Heavenly Empress."
Miao Yi was speechless. Yang Qing probably didn't know that he had asked Xiahou Longcheng before. Xiahou Longcheng had no way of contacting his aunt directly because he didn't have the qualifications.
But Yang Qing's words reminded him that he could only try his best. He had to protect Biyue, or else he wouldn't be able to answer to Jin Man and Hai Yuanke.
Some things were like this. Although he had schemed against Biyue in the Purgatory, he had unknowingly raised Biyue's status. After all, Biyue had given birth to a daughter for Hai Yuanke.
He quickly turned around and left, entering the small house in the garden. He immediately tapped the absent-minded and tearful Hai Pingxin and placed her on the ground. He was afraid that this girl would act rashly, so he had to protect her first.
Then he quickly took out the Star Bell and contacted the Celestial Court's Supervising Envoy of the Right, Gao Guan.
Luckily, Gao Guan picked up his message this time and replied, "What is it?"
Miao Yi quickly relayed the situation and asked for help!
It took a while for Madam Biyue to recover from the slap. She shook her head forcefully, blood trickling down the corner of her mouth. She stood up shakily, and as soon as she raised her head, she saw Marquis Tianyuan's sinister gaze.
Marquis Tianyuan's tone was deep but unhurried, "Bitch! I've given you face, but you don't want it. Why don't you think about how you got to where you are today? Did your wings harden after going out for a while? Or do you think I can't control you just because Heaven's Street is separated from this place? "
Madam Biyue lowered her head and looked towards the direction of the small house. She saw Miao Yi walking out of the small house and knew that Miao Yi had taken care of it. She felt relieved. She was also afraid that her daughter would run out on impulse.
"Good hit!" Madam Biyue smiled bitterly and raised her head. She extended her hand, "Give me the divorce papers!"
Marquis Tianyuan made his move again and grabbed her fair neck, "Let me tell you, a husband should be the wife. It is only right that I control you. Even His Majesty and the Empress can't deny this. Even if the Empress controls Heaven's Street, she can't deny this. Believe it or not, the Empress won't say anything even if I kill you!"
Madam Biyue's throat made a gurgling sound. Her face was red from the grip, and she felt that her neck was almost broken. She tried to pry Marquis Tianyuan's hand away, but she couldn't move it.
"Marquis, Madam can't take it anymore!" Lan Xiang suddenly ran over and begged.
Slap! Marquis Tianyuan didn't even look at her and gave her a backhand slap. Lan Xiang also fell to the ground.
Then, Marquis Tianyuan frowned slightly. He took out a Star Bell and replied, "Emissary Gao, what can I do for you?"
It was a message from Gao Guan. Gao Guan asked, "Marquis Tianyuan, are you tired of living?"
Startled, Marquis Tianyuan asked, "What do you mean?"
However, there was no reply. No matter how he asked, Gao Guan didn't reply. The more it was like this, the more Marquis Tianyuan felt a chill down his spine. Gao Guan's cold figure appeared in his mind, and Gao Guan's words just now echoed in his ears …
