"What?!" Lv Ruo's beautiful eyes widened, "Then whose letter of complaint did you hand over to the justice courts?!"

In the blink of an eye, there were only two days left before the two dynasties met.

For the past few days, Su Jinruo had been extremely calm and comfortable.

Ever since the incident with the woman that day, Su Chi had been imprisoned in the prison of the justice courts, but he had not received any form of punishment.

Since the Prime Minister Su wanted to save him, he had given the matter of him helping the commoners to the Old Emperor over and over again while he was travelling with the Crown Prince.

The officials of the Prime Minister's faction, along with the Prime Minister Su, reported to the Emperor, requesting for the Emperor's forgiveness of Su Chi.

It was unknown whether Old Emperor was softhearted or what else, although he did not say how he wanted to increase the punishment, he did not say that he would not punish her, and his attitude was ambiguous.

The Supreme Court tried to fathom the meaning of Old Emperor's words and pondered for a long time. In the end, they were convicted for ordinary crimes of underhanded conduct and framing.

They were sentenced to three months of exile and six months of imprisonment.

As for Su Ranle, he was slapped down by the Seventh Prince Shen Hancheng and crashed into a pillar, unconscious for a few days.

The moment Su Ranle opened his eyes, Madame Li thought that he had finally guarded the place well enough to see the bright moon, but he suddenly heard his own daughter say:

"So hungry …" Elder sister, do you have anything to eat? I'm so hungry … "

In an instant, Madame Li felt like thunder struck from a clear sky.

Yes, Su Ranle had already become foolish …

As for the red jade …

As Su Jinruo's servant, as well as the servant gifted by the Old Emperor, she had helped Su Ranle to falsify his identity and frame her master.

As far as Red Jade's words and actions were concerned, it was a big taboo in the palace as she … He was executed by the Old Emperor the same day.

As a result, Su Jinruo's face was calm, she looked out the window, the blue sky shining into her eyes, the look in her eyes gloomy.

Mu Jing sat on the wooden chair, supported his chin with one hand, quietly staring at Su Jinruo.

Having lived together for a year, even though she often said that Su Jinruo was a black-hearted person, and Su Jinruo had admitted it with a nod, Mu Jing understood in his heart.

Su Jinruo, she is not a snake or scorpion.

She did not have the thought of harming others as she wished. Otherwise, when she was down and begging for help, based on Su Jinruo's suspicious character, she would not be able to do it so easily.

For example, Guai Qi. That pitiful woman who sold her father was also saved by Su Jinruo. She was given to the Drunken Flower House to share the burden.

For example, every time there was a holiday or when wine and wine were being sold, she would instruct the restaurant owner to set up a large tent and prepare some steamed buns and porridge to help the poor commoners.

How many times had Su Jinruo left two silver buns in front of the children who were swaying in front of him, wearing a bamboo hat.

This was because she knew that if she directly gave the child some silver pieces, the other beggars would all rush up to snatch the child's silver pieces after she left.

A child was still a child after all. No matter how much they gobbled up the food, it was impossible for them to swallow the entire bun.

If the child was smart enough and knew how to keep a straight face, he would certainly be able to improve his situation.

Although Su Jinruo had never told her about it, she had unintentionally seen it before.

She had also asked Su Jinruo before, if the children were not smart enough, when they saw the pieces of silver, they would cry out, "What do you think?"

At that time, Su Jinruo replied without any emotion. The strong won, the weak survived, and the unstable ones were hard to deal with. It was useless even if she saved them.

How heartless he was. Mu Jing knew, knew that Su Jinruo's shady side, knew that he would definitely take revenge for what he had done.

For example, that Yang Queke, if he did not provoke or threaten or hurt her, they would be on a parallel line. If the two of them did not cross paths, then how could harm be said, much less end up in the same situation?

It was an immediate execution (after a thousand cuts and ten thousand cuts, five horses were dismembered) …

And Su Chi, Su Ranle, Hong Yu... If not for the fact that they wanted to harm Su Jinruo, how could Su Jinruo not be so merciless?

After pondering for a long time, Mu Jing saw Su Jinruo looking out of the window and did not say a word, and could not help but ask: "Young Noble, do you have something on your mind?"

Hearing that, Su Jinruo retracted his gaze and looked down, landing on the small path that was sparsely populated.

"The two dynasties are about to end."

Mu Jing continued to hold onto her chin with one hand. After a short pause, she laughed: "Young Master, could it be that you're fretting about the bet with Seventh Prince back then?"

Back then, she had heard rumors about the bet between Su Jinruo and Seventh Prince Shen Hancheng.

It was rumored that the black-hearted man before him had lost the bet …

Mu Jing was secretly amused. After a black-hearted man loses the bet, he must abide by the rules of the bet and help Seventh Prince bathe and change his clothes.

Tsk tsk …

No matter how calm he was, or how calm he was, it was impossible for him to do it. He should just look at the real man in front of him.

Just as Su Jinruo wanted to retract his gaze, he saw a youth dressed in a crescent-shaped robe, sitting on a wooden wheelchair, and a servant pushing a wheelchair, but, slowly, caught his eye.

The youth on the wheelchair seemed to inadvertently raise his eyes and look in Su Jinruo's direction.

Su Jinruo's eyes narrowed, and she slightly tilted her body, borrowing the angle to conceal her own figure.

Her gaze was fixated on the youth in the wheelchair as she asked, "Do you have any way to help me escape this calamity?"

"What a joke," Mu Jing coldly glanced at Su Jinruo, and said: "Even Sir, you don't know how to dodge it, with my silly brain, how could I possibly think of anything else …"

Su Jinruo did not really care about Mu Jing's attitude, "Can you refine a type of powder that can cause one to hallucinate?"

"Does young master think that I, Mu Jing, would have such great ability?"

Outside the window, the young man whose eyes had come in contact with Qin Wentian was currently staring in his direction, as though he was waiting for someone to appear.

Su Jinruo's eyes flashed as she turned around. She walked towards Mu Jing and said, "As the last disciple of Master Aromatic Alchemist — — Ghost Valley Zi, are you sure you don't have that kind of ability?"

Mentioning her master, Mu Jing's face suddenly paled. After a long period of silence, she opened her mouth and said: "Sir, I have already been chased out of the sect by my master. Don't tease me."

Back then, she had liked Dongling Liusu and had told her master that he would marry her in this life …

As for her master, she never liked the people of the imperial family, nor did she like Dongling Liusu. She had once asked for the reason, and her master only replied: The people of the imperial family are fated to be heartless.

But at that time, she didn't believe it.

She was determined to return to the clan and spend the rest of her life with her loved ones. She did not want to be too fierce, but she wanted to live a lifetime and be the only one.

On the day she returned to the residence, her Master gave her a choice.

First, to stop falling in love with Dongling Liusu, the relationship between master and disciple still existed.

Secondly, we must abide by the rules of the valley. All disciples who fall in love with the royal family must have their relationship as master and disciple broken off, never to return back to the valley.

Her master really made it difficult for her to make such a choice out of her …

After some deliberation, finally... Love was more important than the relationship between master and disciple. She still chose Dongling Liusu.

And from then on, he began to walk the road of eternal damnation …

The pain in the corner of Mu Jing's eyes had been completely seen by him, and he no longer spoke, as he sank his head in thought.

Night came.

The time for the two dynasties to meet was already at the end of the countdown.

After Su Jinruo changed into his official's robe, he walked out of the room.

Lv Ruo smiled at her, but accidentally caught a glimpse of the sachet on Su Jinruo's waist.

She raised her hand and pointed to the sachet on Su Jinruo's waist, "Young master, wasn't this the sachet that Miss Mu Jing had made day and night when young master was going to annihilate the bandits at Lan Jie Mountain? She made it for you and gave it to you as a gift, saying that it was a sachet to protect your safety?"

Su Jinruo replied indifferently, showing his attitude.

Lv Ruo's expression immediately changed.

With regards to the bandit incident, it was only when Miss Mu Jing heard that her master would be in danger that she decided to rush the incense bag day and night to gift it to Su Jinruo for his safety.

The Young Master didn't actually like these things. She would only feel that they were a burden if they were hung on her body, so she rarely brought anything that others had given her.

And now …

The young master took the perfume bag with him once more. Did that mean that during tonight's palace banquet, the young master would be in danger …?

At that moment, Lv Ruo opened his mouth and asked: "Didn't Young Noble put away the sachet? Why have you suddenly taken the sachet out today? What danger are you in now? "

Unsure that Lv Ruo would think of this, Su Jinruo laughed, and said lightly: "I didn't encounter any danger, everything was normal. As for this sachet …"

Lv Ruo stared at Su Jinruo, waiting for her to finish.

"As for that sachet …" Su Jinruo looked at Lv Ruo and said: "It's just my sudden thought, if I want to bring it with me, then I'll bring it. It doesn't have any special meaning."

Is that so?

Lv Ruo looked at Su Jinruo, and for once, a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes.

Su Jinruo smiled slightly, ignoring Lv Ruo's expression. With a light movement of her black robe, she walked away.

Since the start of the palace banquet, other than the time when he needed her to cooperate with Su Jinruo and act out a good show, Lv Ruo did not need to follow her into the palace.

The situation within the palace had undergone a myriad of changes in a single moment.

If something were to happen to her again, and she needed to be dealt with urgently, it would take a relatively long time. Therefore, Lv Ruo's wait outside the palace would be even longer.

Rather than waiting outside the palace with nothing to do, it would be better to stay in the courtyard and chat more with Mama Fang, talking about his daughter's family matters.

The sky was cloudless, and the moon was high in the sky. The majestic palaces were bathed in white light, and figures were rushing about in the palace.

Su Jinruo never liked walking on the wide streets, it was just because there were so many people around.

Fortunately, once she entered the palace, she was able to clearly explore the paths that led to the great hall.

As a result, she still walked on the small path within the palace. It was quiet and serene, just like her.

But...

This peace that she liked was broken in the next moment.

A woman wearing a complicated beautiful red palace attire stood behind Su Jinruo, wearing high-soled flagshoes.

She called out to Su Jinruo. The tassels on her bun let out a crisp sound as she walked step by step towards Su Jinruo.

Su Jinruo turned, looked at the person, cupped his hands and bowed, then said: "This official greets Princess Xiwei."

Princess Xiwei was leisurely holding onto the hands of the servant girl beside her, he looked at Su Jinruo and laughed: "City Lord Su and this princess have known each other for some time, why are you still acting like this?"
