It was getting hot. The empress dowager wanted to take shelter in An Ping's residence for the summer. The emperor was very filial, so he didn't rush to return to Luan and settled down in the estate.

Zhong Miao Yi kneeled on Shi Lingzi Road outside Changping Pavilion. She did not raise her head, nor did she move her knees due to the stone.

The empress dowager was furious, no one heard a single word of excuse from her, but Yun Mengqi gave a terrible slap, saying that it was because Zhong Miao Yi had slapped her that she accidentally pushed her down.

It was the emperor who protected her from him, and only then did the Empress Mother loosen her lips and say that she was punished to kneel on Shi Lingzi Road outside Changping Pavilion.

The swelling on Yun Mengqi's face had almost subsided, she stopped in front of Zhong Miao Yi with her embroidered shoes, feeling extremely satisfied in her heart, "Do you know what the difference between us is?"

Zhong Miao Yi raised his face. The sunlight shone onto his face, but she was unable to open her eyes.

She slightly bent her body, "I am a princess of the Golden Branch Jade Leaf, but you are a princess picked up from the dust. Do you really not know your own weight?"

Zhong Miao Yi gave a half cold and half mocking laugh, "I have always thought it through clearly."

"Heh, at least you're sensible." Yun Mengqi curled the corner of his mouth, the pleased expression on his face not vanishing in the slightest.

When she walked past Zhong Miao Yi, she said: "I hope you won't regret it."

Yun Mengqi walked away quickly, as if she didn't hear what the Zhong Miao Yi had said clearly.

After kneeling for two hours, Zhong Miao Yi felt as if her lower body was being torn apart. She couldn't even stand up straight.

The sunlight in front of her was suddenly blocked. She didn't even have time to look before that person lifted her up. He didn't care about her steps, which were so painful she was about to fall, and silently dragged her to a deserted corner.

Zhong Miao Yi felt too much pain, and she was about to collapse after seeing that it was Su Zeyi.

"What are you doing!?" What are you trying to do!? " Her nerves were already sensitive and weak from the torture. She crazily slapped Su Zeyi's body randomly, and her furious voice that sounded like she was venting it out carried a hysterical sobbing tone.

When she had cried enough, fought enough and got tired of it, Su Zeyi held her hands and pushed her, whose face was full of tears, behind the vines, just in time to block their figures.

Zhong Miao Yi closed her eyes tightly, she did not know what else she could do to make let her go. She knew that Su Zeyi would definitely pinch her to death right now, but she still stubbornly refused to look at him.

Su Zeyi was not satisfied with her current look. He grabbed her by the neck, and his tone of voice always carried an order: "Open!"

Zhong Miao Yi's eyelashes shook a few times, and finally parted a crack.

Su Zeyi's face darkened. He grabbed her entire chin and raised his head. had always known that she was very beautiful. Otherwise, there wouldn't be people who would throw away money just to see her once.

"The empress dowager didn't pursue the matter, so consider yourself lucky this time." "Don't expect me to let you go. Zhong Miao Yi, you owe me more!"

Zhong Miao Yi glared at him in anger. She had already paid back what she owed him!

"We've already settled the score, Lord Su!" Zhong Miao Yi angrily laughed and coldly squeezed out a few words. He was stung by her smile.

He had watched her grow up, from a little carrot who was learned to the famous Qingge's Courtesan Belle. She was like a rose with thorns all over her body, beautiful, domineering, and fearless.

She called him 'Lord Su' again, but for some reason, Su Zeyi's heart was filled with anger, he punished her by biting her lips, causing Zhong Miao Yi to struggle violently. Su Zeyi fiercely bit into her lips, and only after the sweet smell of blood entered his mouth, did his anger calm down slightly.

"Don't forget that you haven't finished what you have to do." He let go of her, annoyed at his own incompetence, and left her alone, turning and walking quickly away.

"Who's there?" Just as Su Zeyi was about to leave, Zhong Miao Yi heard a low warning shout coming from the other side.

He probably heard the conversation and came over to check.

It took Zhong Miao Yi a moment of immersion to come to her senses. These were Tang Yao's eyes.

Seeing the familiar face, Tang Yao relaxed his guard.

Zhong Miao Yi nodded her head. Because she was forced to kneel down, she did not wear her headdress, but simply tied her hair up randomly. The soft hair that had fallen down from the back of her head fluttered in the wind.

"Why are you here?" The two of them didn't have much to say, which made them feel especially awkward. Since the Zhong Miao Yi didn't know that Tang Yao was sizing her up, she randomly picked a topic to talk about.

Tang Yao patted his soft armor as he spoke with a hint of pride in his voice. "I'm now the general leader of the Weaving Guard squadron. I'm still unfamiliar with the place since I've just arrived. The emperor told me to explore the area and get familiar with it. I heard some activity over here, so I came over."

Tang Yao was especially easy to get along with. As long as he changed the topic a bit, he would be able to lead the topic by his own volition, talking about many different things before moving on to another topic.

Zhong Miao Yi only needed to keep quiet and smile as she listened to him.

After searching for quite a while, Tang Yao finally managed to find a small porcelain bottle. He happily laughed for a bit before passing the bottle over to Zhong Miao Yi.

"This is …" Zhong Miao Yi took it and looked at it, and it seemed to be a bottle of ointment.

As I was talking to you, I almost forgot, this is used to blood circulation and blood stasis, you were kneeling outside Changping Pavilion for the past two days, I specifically went to see it, that road was paved with stones, your knees must have swelled up, this ointment is especially good, I touched it before, my mother gave it to me. He said extra earnestly and even gave an example, as if he was afraid the Zhong Miao Yi would not believe him. After saying that, he suddenly felt that it was inappropriate to say it, as if he was ridiculing her for getting punished.

Tang Yao felt somewhat uneasy. He was afraid that the Zhong Miao Yi would misunderstand him, so he hurriedly scratched his head and explained, "That one." I'm not talking about the incident where you were punished to kneel. I just. "

The more he explained, the more confused he became. Tang Yao could only sigh in resignation.

Zhong Miao Yi was amused by him and felt her heart warm up. Her emotions that were disturbed by Su Zeyi a moment ago seemed to have improved. She kept the small porcelain bottle properly and smiled at him: "Thank you."

Tang Yao stared blankly at her for a moment, then immediately smiled and said, "Actually, I don't believe what Princess Yun Mengqi said. How could her injuries be worse than yours?" I don't think you're that kind of girl. "
