C856 The Grand Preceptor's estate

The father and son pair were still feeling sad for her, when she suddenly burst out laughing. It was probably on Qin Xuan's account that he was able to resist and not hit her.

Hearing Yan Yuan's question, Liu Ruo Qing hurriedly waved her hands and explained frantically, "Your Highness, please forgive me. This humble one only feels that young son is very cute, and that's why I couldn't help but … "

She frowned, a little regretfully.

In fact, she was used to being impudent in front of Yan Yuan. Even though she was standing here as an outsider, she still wasn't able to sit properly in her seat.

He was a little perturbed in his heart, he did not know that Yan Yuan would punish her in this way, but after quieting down for a while, he only heard Yan Yuan say: "You may leave, after you rest, come out with me at night."

Liu Ruo Qing secretly heaved a sigh of relief, "Many thanks, Your Highness."

After that, she quickly walked out, and did not look at Yan Yuan and her son anymore, and naturally did not notice that Yan Yuan was staring at her back, the hands that were hugging young son, had unwittingly become heavier.

"Father, you're hurting Heng Er."

The painful voice of the young son shocked Yan Yuan out of his thoughts.

His eyes turned cold, and when he thought about that person's back when he left, he unexpectedly felt that he looked just like Qing Er.

Damn it, he was going crazy!

How could she overlap a man with Qing Er?

"Father, who was that uncle just now?"

"He …"

Yan Yuan's mouth was agape, and he did not know how to introduce the identity of the little guard.

He did not seem to like his identity as Qin Xuan's personal guard. After knitting his brows for a moment, he heard him say, "He is my royal father's friend."

Liu Ruo Qing followed the butler to the side courtyard. This side courtyard was a distance away from the east courtyard, but it was the closest courtyard to the main street behind the palace.

This was also good. It would be more convenient for her to move around.

The curtain of night quickly descended. It was almost the end of the year, and it was the coldest time of the year.

After changing into some night clothes, Liu Ruo Qing heard someone knocking on the door.

She stepped forward to open the door, and saw Yan Yuan dressed in night clothes appearing in front of her, causing her eyes to flash with a trace of astonishment. "Your Highness, why have you come?"

Even if the two of them were to act together, as a prince, there was no need for him to personally come to her place to wait for her, right?

"It's convenient to leave here."

Yan Yuan casually said, and without much explanation, he walked in.

Liu Ruo Qing thought that it made sense. The residence she lived in was the closest to the back street.

Yan Yuan glanced at the night attire on her body and asked, "Are you ready?"

"I'm ready."

"Let's go."

He turned around as Liu Ruo Qing picked up the mask cloth on the table and followed behind him. After the two of them climbed over the wall and exited the Duke Palace, Liu Ruo Qing covered her face with the mask cloth.

Yan Yuan inadvertently turned his head to look at her face, and that one glance caused his entire body to freeze.

The pair of agile eyes atop the mask cloth s, because it covered up her other facial features, made her eyes look even more obvious, which also made him more familiar with her.

He stared into her eyes for a long time. The shock in his heart made him clench his fists tightly. He didn't react for a long time.

This... It was clearly Qing Er's eyes.

Liu Ruo Qing didn't know why she suddenly froze, as though she had received a huge shock, and stared at her without saying a word.

"Prince?"

Liu Ruo Qing raised his hand and waved it in front of Yan Yuan, pulling Yan Yuan back from his shock.

Restraining his emotions, he thought of that black-clothed man who had barged into Pear Garden that night. He thought of everything, and his heart began to beat faster.

"You …"

He didn't know what to say, but his hands, which were hidden under his sleeves, were violently trembling.

Liu Ruo Qing felt that the current Yan Yuan was very strange, his entire being seemed to have received a huge shock, and his heart was filled with worry.

"Prince, what's wrong?"

She looked at Yan Yuan, her tone filled with worry.

He withdrew his gaze from Liu Ruo Qing's eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down as much as possible.

There were some things that he had to be careful to verify. Whether or not he was Qing Er, he could not scare him away at this moment.

After he closed his eyes for a long time, he finally managed to calm himself down and shook his head at Liu Ruo Qing, "It's nothing, let's go."

Seeing that he had returned to normal, Liu Ruo Qing did not think anymore about it, and the two of them headed in the direction of the Grand Preceptor's estate.

Ever since the news that the Grand Preceptor Pang had arranged for his daughter to receive a priceless dowry, the security of the entire Grand Preceptor's estate had become even stricter than before.

But in the end, the Grand Preceptor's estate was only an official's estate. Private soldiers and guards weren't allowed in their estate, so there were only ordinary guards.

It wasn't difficult for them to enter the Grand Preceptor's estate. A mere manor wasn't anything difficult for Yan Yuan and Liu Ruo Qing, these two experts.

However, both of them were well aware that the person guarding those boxes of bugs was undoubtedly an expert in the martial arts world.

In the Easternum, the structure of the official's residence had its own specifications and layout. Thus, after the duo entered the Grand Preceptor's estate, they found their way to the storehouse with familiarity.

Sure enough, there were a few people guarding outside the warehouse. Even at night, they were still on alert. Their eyes cautiously scanned their surroundings, not letting a single corner slip by.

The two of them jumped onto the roof of the warehouse and lifted the eaves. Through the tiled roof, they could clearly see everything in the warehouse.

It was filled with all kinds of priceless treasures, and when Liu Ruo Qing saw it, her eyes lit up.

"The Grand Preceptor's estate really has a lot of treasures."

As a professional tomb robber, to Liu Ruo Qing, it was like a mouse meeting rice. She would not be satisfied even if she did not eat a few mouthfuls.

Yan Yuan, who was standing at the side, looked at her with a complicated expression.

Although Liu Ruo Qing was bewitched by the treasures, she still remembered the main mission of this trip. Looking at the boxes below that were not opened, she muttered: "There are so many boxes, where are the bugs hiding?"

"The last boxes."

Yan Yuan's soft voice swept past her ears, and she subconsciously turned his head to the side. Seeing Yan Yuan's eyes staring at her, her heart trembled, and she became flustered.

However, on the surface, he pretended to be calm and said, "How is Your Highness certain?"

Yan Yuan's gaze did not stay on her face for long, as he looked at the boxes in the warehouse once again, "These bugs are a threat to us, but they are also a form of danger to Grand Preceptor Pang."

The moment Yan Yuan said that, Liu Ruo Qing immediately understood what he meant.

Those bugs didn't recognize humans, whoever accidentally got into contact with them would have to be controlled, so the Grand Preceptor Pang was naturally clear of this logic.

Now that Ye Man was not in the Jindu, the Grand Preceptor Pang did not dare to come into contact with those bugs easily. Naturally, he would not allow anyone from the Grand Preceptor's estate to come in contact with those bugs and change into a monster that did not look like a human or a ghost.
