It was already late, the three of them did not want to trouble the Nan Gong Residence by preparing dinner and returning home.
It was already very late, and there was no one on the street. Su Yitian, who had been going crazy all day, could not bear it and fell asleep on Leng Fanyun's back.
When they arrived at Su Yuewu's room, the two of them, Leng Fanyun, were preparing to put Su Yitian on the bed. However, they discovered that the little kid was holding them tightly. When Su Yuewu saw that Su Yitian didn't seem to care about him, she also came over to help.
As she walked up to him, he could smell the sweet, girlish scent of her body. Su Yuewu slowly let go of Su Yitian's hand and climbed onto the bed. She placed Su Yitian on the inside and turned around to find Leng Fanyun's eyes staring at her with a glimmer in his eyes.
Embarrassed, she pushed him. The voice was small: "What are you doing?"
Leng Fanyun stood up and slowly took a deep breath. He pulled up the clothes of the red-faced and alluring girl on the bed. She said, "Little Wu, let's hurry up and get married. I can't take this anymore."
Su Yuewu laughed lightly, "Alright, once this is over, let's get married."
He embraced Su Yuewu and gently kissed her forehead before saying, "You should go to sleep early. I'll be going back now."
The day that Su Yuewu entered the palace, the weather was very good. The sky was clear blue, and the golden palace walls seemed even more majestic and spectacular.
She brought Qingwan to sit on the palanquin in the palace, but there was no one to stop her along the way. After entering the palace, he was no longer allowed to sit in a palanquin. The eunuch who was leading the way bowed to Su Yue Wu and said: "Please follow this servant over here, Madam."
Along the way, palace maids and eunuchs dressed in palace uniforms hurried over, all of them wearing plain and stiff expressions. Su Yuewu was used to being free outside, so when she saw them acting like this, she couldn't help but sigh for them. With a loud sound, it was ruined just like that. There were a few people who were able to stand at the top of the pyramid. Later on, they were all scheming, and they were all helping others.
She didn't know how long she walked for, but at first, Su Yuewu was still secretly memorizing the road, but then she realized that since he dared to call her over so openly, she would not be as cautious as she was. It was as peaceful as ever. He walked with the court lady and enjoyed the scenery of the palace.
He finally arrived at the front of a towering hall. There was not a single speck of dust on the white jade brick that was used to block the entrance. At the entrance, there were sixteen pillars with coiling dragons and gold powder carved on them. They looked very dignified and graceful. Su Yuewu saw an even more flamboyant building there, so she didn't think much of it.
The court lady stopped in front of the door, bowed and said: "Madam, please." The door opened from the inside. It was pitch black inside. All the windows were closed, so it was hard to see what was going on inside.
Su Yuewu lifted her leg and walked inside. When Qing Wan was about to enter, she was stopped by a maid at the door. Su Yuewu raised an eyebrow and said, "What, are you still afraid that us two weak girls will be disadvantaged to this day?"
The court lady ignored Su Yuewu's sarcasm and said, "His Majesty has instructed me to only allow Madame in. Please do not make things difficult for this one."
Qing Wan was a little worried. She said to Su Yuewu, "Madam …" There was a hint of worry in his eyes. Su Yuewu smiled at her, "Don't worry, I'll be out soon."
The door closed behind him.
Su Yuewu had just entered this dark and bizarre palace from the sunny outside and everything in front of her was dark. She stood there for a long time, getting used to the gloom. It was unknown where the incense was burning, but it was so sweet and depressing that it made people want to puke. Su Yue Wu used her sleeve to cover her nose and mouth, then slowly walked inside.
The room was very large and empty. With every step Su Yuewu took, she could hear her own footsteps sounding ethereal. There was nothing in the air, only her shallow breathing. The light from outside shone through the gaps between the windows. Su Yuewu could see that there were layers of muslin curtains around her. She didn't know where the wind was blowing, but it was slowly blowing.
Su Yuewu had a rough idea of what was going on. There had to be something wrong with the incense, and she had to find a way out before it fell, and the curtains were the keys. Since there was wind, the curtain would only move. As long as she moved towards the direction of the wind, she would definitely be able to walk out.
It was no longer important that he could not see in front of him. With a flip of her hand, Su Yuewu tore a piece of cloth from her body and covered her eyes and nose. The five senses of a person are like this: the eyes are invisible, and other senses of touch and hearing become clearer.
Su Yuewu felt a gentle breeze coming from one side, so she slowly moved her feet step by step. Finally, his closed eyes felt something light up outside. She reached out to remove the cloth covering her face and opened her eyes.
It was a small courtyard with a large field of red flowers. The petals were coiled like silk, like a beautiful woman's fingers curving in an enchanting arc, with a golden silk stamen hanging down from the middle, somewhat similar to the modern Manju Sha Hua. When the wind blew, the petals swayed in the wind, bringing with it a sweet fragrance.
In the middle of the courtyard, there was a huge 'Joyous Union' planted. The leaves of the flower were fluttering in the wind. The tiny 'Joyous Union Flower' was like a small flame that was hidden between the green leaves, creating a cheerful appearance. There was a man in red sitting under a tree with a game of chess in front of him. He was playing alone, and occasionally some of the falling acacia flowers would land on his black hair.
He turned around and smiled at Su Yuewu, "Mistress Su came out earlier than I expected." Her eyebrows were curved and her smile was pure and kind. A pair of peach blossom eyes appeared to be affectionate and gentle.
Su Yuewu respectfully bowed to him and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
"The other person casually waved his hand, signaling her to stand up." "There's no need to be so polite. Why don't you come over and play this game by yourself?"
Thinking of this fox, Su Yuewu didn't know what she was planning, but since she was already here, she decided to take it easy. Thus, she gently sat in front of him.
The young emperor held out a black board, indicating that Su Yuewu held white. Su Yuewu looked at the two sides on the board. They were evenly matched with each other, with sharp black. Although the white color was gentle and gentle, it was meticulous. It was hard to tell whether she would win or lose.
Su Yuewu slowly landed on the chessboard, and asked, "Did His Majesty call this humble girl here just to play this game of chess?" She went straight to the point.
Gu Xi Mu looked at the chess board as if she was trying to figure out where she should go next. After she had landed, she said indifferently, "Madam, are you feeling a little more anxious?" We'll talk about other things after we play chess. "
Su Yuewu thought of Qing Wan who was still outside, and seeing that he was only going to play chess, she couldn't help but agitate him, "Your Majesty, you're bullying me too much."
Gu Xiluo seemed surprised that she had said this, "Oh? What does Madam mean by that? "
Su Yue Wu said: "I thought that Your Majesty would sincerely meet the master of the Lunar Shadow Guild, but you actually sent out assassins to kill him, and then placed hallucinogen in the palace. Now, you are keeping it a secret and not talking about it. I do not understand the sincerity of His Majesty's peace talks. "
Gu Xi Mu looked at Su Yue Wu and calmly said, "It's still early, so it's not too late for us to finish this round. If Madam wins, perhaps you might have something that you want?"
Su Yuewu had no other choice but to carefully watch the chess game. Every step she took was appropriate, so she finally managed to force Hei Zi into a corner. As she put away the black object in her hand, she asked, "Your Majesty, does it look like this humble girl is going to win?"
Gu Xiluo looked at her chess piece, which had been lost in a large area, and was not angry. "How can you deceive Madam Su if you don't kill your opponent?" He slowly lowered the chess piece he was holding onto a corner, and the whole game changed. The black words had the upper hand, surrounding the white piece so tightly that not even a drop of water could leak out.
Su Yuewu looked at the chessboard in front of her and knew that her skills were inferior. She put down her chess piece and said, "I've lost."
Gu Xi Mu also released the chess piece, took the tea cup and said, "Madam, you've let me win."
She discovered that this man was more difficult to deal with than any other person she had ever met because she didn't know his weaknesses or what she could offer in exchange for him. This made her very apprehensive about this negotiation.
"Actually, the reason I called you here was to thank you for helping me. If you didn't have Madam, then I'm afraid the one sitting here would be you, big brother. I probably wouldn't be here anymore."
He looked at Su Yuewu and said, "Since that's the case, I do owe Madam a huge favor."
