"Is the Emperor at ease?" The silver fox mask sparkled under the bright moonlight, and the faint smile on the corner of his mouth could be seen.

Tonight, she knew that the Prime Minister's Estate would not be so safe. She had specially found a method to bring her along as a guest to be a beacon. Although this was still Qiao Qiao's job, she was unfamiliar with this place in ancient times, so she had no way of knowing where to start.

"However, this sovereign still has something he doesn't understand." The corners of Nie Tian's mouth twitched. Indeed, he couldn't understand this matter.

The Death God looked thoughtfully at Joe's still figure, his deep eyes growing darker and darker.

Deep in the palace.

Joe was still dressed in black and walking quickly, avoiding the patrolling guards one after another, when suddenly, from the west side of the harem, a flirtatious, mesmerizing sound of breathing caught her attention.

She really didn't expect that her harem would have such an obscene affair. Could it be that she didn't give enough care and care during the day? He actually didn't squeeze these scheming men dry!

"Who is it!" Just as she was about to move forward to take a look, she heard the cold shout of a guard behind her. Qiao Qiao's body was still stiff as he quickly analyzed the current situation in his mind.

If she turned around to reveal her identity, then everyone in the room would have surely sat down on this crime of obscenity, but she was the exalted Emperor of Qiao, how could she explain the obscene behavior of a person dressed in night clothes? If anyone misunderstood her, then there would be no excuse for it in the future.

If she were to turn around and run away, and be mistakenly killed as an assassin, her glorious reputation would be ruined under these guards' hands.

Still, Qiao Qiao slightly turned around, trying to guess the probability of him escaping. Behind him were only five guards. With a cautious expression, they closed in step by step towards her.

Without martial arts and inner force, Qiao Qiao was still weak in front of these guards. She could not fight recklessly, she could only think of ways to leave, but no matter what, her identity must not be revealed!

She couldn't afford to embarrass herself like this!

"Look at his hands!" A little guard beside the leader of the guards hastily reminded him.

Sure enough, when the five guards saw the jade pendant still in Qiao Qiao's hands, they were shocked. Then, they knelt down and said: "This subordinate did not know that Sir is here, please forgive me!"

She knew that the reason for the change in this group of people was because of the jade pendant that she had casually brought over from the Prime Minister's Estate. However, why did the guards have such deep respect for this jade pendant?

However, this Prime Minister Luo held a high position. Thinking about it, it was normal for the people in his palace to feel some respect, but no matter what, Qiao Qiao still had some doubts towards the sudden change in the position of these guards.

"Who's there?" In the distance was another group of patrolling guards.

The five guards immediately stood up and shouted into the distance, "It's us. There's nothing out of the ordinary here."

As expected, the footsteps from afar slowly faded away.

"Since sire has matters to attend to, this subordinate shall not disturb you. Please do as you wish, sire." The head guard respectfully said, and with a wave of his hand, the five of them left.

From beginning to end, Qiao Qiao still did not speak a single word. The peculiar feeling in her heart gradually deepened, but … She tilted her head and glanced at the two people inside the room who had already settled down.

With a leap, a petite figure disappeared into the moonlight.

"My lord, why did you help her?" Above the moonlight, a lady dressed in white asked with dissatisfaction on her face.

"How long have you been with this sovereign?" Nie Fen asked expressionlessly.

"Master, it's been three years." Xiao Bai Ning reported with a smile on her face. Unknowingly, she had followed by his side for three years.

"Three years. You still haven't understood this sovereign's temperament." Bai Ning was surprised when she heard the tone in his voice.

"Master doesn't want Bai Ning anymore?" Hua Bai Ning had always kept her as her master's personal servant for three years because he treated her differently. But today, with just that sentence, her master had actually made her leave.

"Cleansing the palace and not raising fools." Bai Ning stood with her hands over the moon, her tone indifferent, giving the impression that she couldn't bear to be touched. For so many years, her master had always been indifferent and elegant. She didn't know why her master would waste so much effort to help that woman today.

"Bai Ning knows her wrongs. She doesn't dare to speak carelessly again. I beg my lord to keep her." Hua Bai Ning kneeled on the ground and pleaded.

Bai Ning looked at him indifferently. The hatred in her eyes couldn't escape the eyes of Bai Ning.

"Without this sovereign's permission, no one is allowed to touch her." He turned and disappeared into the starry sky.

Hua Bai Ning bit her lips. She knew that her master had only retained her to repay that person's love for her, and this tolerance was probably the last chance for her to stay in the Supreme Purity Palace. Furthermore, her master's parting words seemed to have already revealed the warning she wanted to give in her heart.

Hua Bai Ning clenched her fists and gazed at the walls of the palace, then angrily turned and left.
