You're back? Misunderstanding
Such a terrifying rumor would definitely make her lose his reputation as an imperial concubine and put a layer of dog shit on top of it.
Xi Jiu Er covered her eyes and howled in her heart, but her face was still as cold as ever. She jumped in the air with her collar grabbed by someone, and when her legs finally felt the gentleness of the earth, Xi Jiu Er exhaled deeply, straightened her body, and cleared her throat. She then pretended to be a man with a coarse voice, "Thank you, big brother?"
The man behind him laughed heartily. "Gou Dan, you have to cure your fear of heights. When are you not running amok when you're a guard like us?
Xi Jiu Er nodded her head, with her back facing the man, she walked towards the back quickly. The face that was covered by the black robe was now covered by a black cloud.
Xi Jiu Er and the man were the last to come down. Fortunately, the leader of the guards still hadn't come out, so everyone quietly stayed where they were, waiting for their orders.
Xi Jiu Er's body was a little weak, squeezed into a group of tall and big men, and her body was instantly concealed. She could be said to be a chicken standing among cranes, and everyone was dressed in black, covering their faces, leaving behind a pair of pitch black eyeballs rolling about in the crowd.
Everyone stood in the yard and waited for the leader of the guards to come out of the emperor's palace. After giving instructions to everyone, they could all return home and find their own mothers.
However, no one came out after a long time. Even so, all of these well-trained bodyguards were like quincuncial piles, as if they had been smashed to the ground by someone. Not a single one of them had moved.
Xi Jiu Er couldn't help but admire the heroes present. If she wasn't the prey she had been captured, she would have definitely taken off this layer of black clothing in front of him and stepped forward to brew wine and discuss about heroes.
The night wind during winter was so strong that it caused one's head to ache. The black clothes Xi Jiu Er was wearing was especially large, because this was a tall and big man that she had unintentionally followed. As for what that man looked like, she had never seen it clearly, so she was not particularly guilty.
Although it was very immoral to take advantage of others taking a bath and changing clothes, how many coppers were there worth of morals these days?
Beneath Xi Jiu Er's wide black clothes, hid that package which was full of value.
Xi Jiu Er tightly hugged onto the wide black clothed man, her strange actions did not attract anyone's attention, all of their attention were placed on the brightly lit great hall.
The door of the palace was slowly pulled open with a "peng" sound. A man, who was also completely wrapped in black clothes, walked out with his back facing a large halo of light.
The man's tall and slender figure appeared in front of the crowd. He scanned the crowd with his sharp eyes like the fiercest falcon on the prairie before slowly opening his voice, "Today, His Majesty the Emperor specially selected a servant from the guards. Who among you is willing?"
The man's voice was like a piece of ice without any impurities, emitting a trace of coldness under the sunlight. The man told everyone this horrifying news with a straight face, as if what he said was as simple as what they ate tonight.
The moment the man's voice fell, the crowd instantly burst into an uproar.
"What's going on? That brother is still conscious. Quickly come and explain it to me, I'm a little dizzy! "
"The leader's mother told me to go home and collect my clothes."
"Leader, my wife specially heated up a jug of wine for me tonight. She is probably waiting for me in her room to go back and pacify me!"
"Leader, I want some convenience. Aiyo, I've eaten too many scallions in the afternoon. I can't take it anymore, I have to go and pay my respects."
A short figure flashed through the crowd. It was unknown whether or not he had run out of the city at such a fast speed.
There was an exception. The crowd, which had previously been filled with complaints and all sorts of bizarre reasons, now began to move. Three to four groups of people emerged from the crowd and scattered like birds and beasts.
Xi Jiu Er opened her mouth wide in disbelief, her eyes filled with shock.
This Feng Qing Cheng actually had such a strong taste, he really didn't understand it himself! Wait, where were the well-trained guards from before?
Xi Jiu Er shut her mouth with much difficulty, she looked around suspiciously, and sure enough, all the beasts around him had scattered!
The man in black nodded his head in satisfaction as he looked at the scampering crowd. This was the effect he wanted.
His gaze turned towards Xi Jiu Er who was still standing in her original spot, "You, come here," The man casually pointed at Xi Jiu Er, and said with an ice-cold voice.
Xi Jiu Er blankly blinked her eyes and extended her hand. She pointed at herself, as though she could not believe that she was so unfortunate to be able to run all the way to Feng Qing Cheng's palace, feeling a bit sad, 90% worried.
The black clothed man looked at the frail and weak figure a few steps away, impatiently nodding his head, he turned and flew towards the palace door. After walking a few steps, he felt that there were no footsteps behind him, he turned to look at Xi Jiu Er who was still at her original position, and raised her arm, "Follow."
Xi Jiu Er swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and after quickly filtering all the escape plans she could think of, she sadly realised that she could only use this method. She could only lower her head and follow the man in black behind with her slowest speed, step by step.
The man didn't care about his speed when he saw that she had followed him. As long as she entered the palace, he wouldn't have to worry about it. His Majesty would be the one to take care of the woman. He was just a messenger.
With all his might, he lowered his head in front of him and stared at his own boots one step at a time. He decided that if he saw Feng Qing Cheng with that broken sleeve of his, he would beat the other person up quickly and then run away.
Xi Jiu Er took out all of the military strategy books that she had read, as well as all of the schemes and tricks that she had used on the battlefield, and imagined countless of scenes that she would encounter in her mind, and memorized all of the strategies and tactics that she would use, and then continued to walk with difficulty towards the palace with each step.
The black clothed man led Xi Jiu Er into the great hall, turned around and left. He did not report to his majesty the Emperor, nor did he give Xi Jiu Er any warning at all. Instead, he turned around and left confidently, as if Xi Jiu Er was only an item and he only needed to deliver it to his destination.
Xi Jiu Er stared at the irresponsible black clothed man, his eyes holding a sharp knife that pierced into the back of the man as he left. Unfortunately for him, the man completely ignored the anger in Xi Jiu Er's heart, and leisurely went to find someone to drink.
Xi Jiu Er's entire body was wrapped without even a crack, her bright eyes were rolling about, and there was not a single person within the palace. Even the servant girl that should have appeared to serve him, her "male pet", was not present.
Xi Jiu Er tiptoed, looked left and right, looking right and left, standing on tiptoe, with one hand holding the pearl curtain in her other hand and the other hand holding it lightly, moved closer to it with her right eye, while her black eyes swept up and down the entire hall.
