Shen Yijia nodded without commenting.
“Alright, it’s all in the past. After today, I’ve taken my revenge.” Liu Piaopiao let out a long breath. “We haven’t seen each other for so long, so let’s not talk about these unhappy things.”
“It’s so cold outside. Don’t you know how to wear more clothes? Young Master Shenzhi… No, he should be called Earl Zhongyi now. Doesn’t he know how to take better care of you?” With that, she reached out and poured a cup of tea for Shen Yijia. “Drink some tea to warm up first.”
In order to make it easier to move, Shen Yijia did not wear a cloak. It was indeed a little cold when she sat down. She took the teacup and prepared to drink it. When the fate of the cup touched her lips, she hesitated.
Liu Piaopiao clenched her fists under her sleeves and poured herself a glass casually. She raised her head and drank it in one gulp.
Shen Yijia drank it too.
“It’s been an hour. Why isn’t Young Madam back yet?” One Dot asked worriedly.
Among the remaining five of them, only South Wind followed Song Jingchen to the Hidden Spirit Temple. The rest stayed behind to escort the emperor.
MO Yuan frowned and stood up. She said expressionlessly, “Bring the emperor out of the city first. I’ll go look for Miss.”
One Dot thought about it and realized that this was the only way. He brought his men to the cellar.
Song Jingchen had already told the emperor his plan in advance. Even if he was dissatisfied that no one had served him for the past two days, the emperor didn’t dare to show it.
After all, he had waited for so long. Song Jingchen was the only one who could save him. His life was still in his hands.
The few of them were about to leave through the back door with the emperor when a familiar figure flew towards them.
Thirty Thousand was shocked and quickly rushed up to catch her. “MO Yuan, are you alright?”
MO Yuan glanced at him and casually wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. She stood up and looked coldly at the group of men in black who had suddenly appeared.
“How dare you? Who are you?” the emperor said angrily.
It would have been fine if he hadn’t spoken, but as soon as he did, he successfully attracted their gaze.
The men in black were stunned at first, their eyes filled with disbelief. They looked at each other and raised their swords to attack him.
The emperor was speechless.
One Dot and the others were speechless.
They had never seen anyone who liked to court death so much.
The two sides instantly fought. One Dot and the others did not know who the men in black’s original target was, but the moment they saw the emperor, their target had clearly changed.
They actually wanted the emperor’s life!
“Help! Someone, help!” The emperor was so frightened that he jumped around and kept shouting.
A man in black’s sword was about to land on him.
One Dot cursed softly. After weighing the pros and cons, he gave up on blocking the attacks of the people he fought. He threw out the sword in his hand and blocked the men in black behind him for the emperor.
A sword pierced through him.
“One Dot!” West Wind shouted with bloodshot eyes. He turned around and kicked the man in black away before rushing to One Dot’s side.
One Dot said, “Protect the emperor first.”
West Wind closed his eyes and unexpectedly thought of his three brothers who had died in front of them.
He raised his sword and charged at the emperor with red eyes.
The emperor was dumbfounded. “No, Song Jingchen asked you to protect me!”
“You, you, you…” He trembled for a long time before his legs went weak and he fell to the ground. He looked at the person who was swinging his sword at him in fear.
Seeing that the sword was about to fall, the emperor closed his eyes in fear. There was a ding above his head.
It turned out that a man in black had circled behind him.
The emperor heaved a sigh of relief. ‘What’s your name? After these things are over, I’ll definitely reward you heavily.”
“Shut up if you don’t want to die.” West Wind roared.
The emperor was speechless.
There were less than two hours left until the blessing ceremony. On the account that everyone had worked hard climbing the mountain on foot, the monk led everyone to rest for a while.
Naturally, with so many people around, only the emperor, the empress dowager, the concubines in the harem, a few lords, and a few ministers in the intermediate court rested in private rooms.
Song Jingchen followed the other officials into the resting hall.
Soon, monks brought hot tea and pastries to everyone.
Everyone had a small plate of snacks. There were only two snacks on each plate. Song Jingchen picked up one of them and crushed the pastries under the cover of his sleeve. He took out the note inside.
The words Jade Peak Courtyard were written on it.
This was the emperor’s current courtyard!
Song Jingchen pursed his lips and handed the note to South Wind. He instructed in a low voice, “Go and see if your Young Madam has arrived.”
“Yes.”
“Master, Miss Ji has sent a letter..”
