Hearing his words, Su Qi Huan immediately rejoiced, "Thank you for your kindness, Master."
"But …" Ling Xuanxin suddenly paused slightly.
Su Qi Huan instantly froze. He didn't know what other requests Ling Lingzhi would make.
Within the Azure Sky Palace, a handsome man was sitting in the middle of the hall sipping tea. Beside him was an incense burner burning with the scent of a drunken plum.
But... You have to be sure that it was your sister who was punished.
Ling Lingcun's words once again rang in Su Qi Huan's ears.
Ever since Ling Xiang had mentioned the matter of Su Xiaoxiao, Su Qi Huan hadn't seen his own 'little sister'.
Currently, Su Qi Huan was holding his breath and focusing his attention as he stood one meter away, looking at the girl lying on the bed from afar.
After not seeing her for more than a month, he felt like … He was even more unfamiliar.
That's right, Su Qi Huan didn't know if it was because of the change in her age, or because … He really wasn't his own little sister, so the spiritual energy in the girl on the bed and his little sister, who was only at the young child's age, didn't match at all.
The real Su Xiaoxiao also had a pure and innocent look in her eyes.
But that was because she lived like a child.
This Su Xiaoxiao seemed to have suffered a lot during this period of time. Her originally apple-like baby face had lost a little bit of weight. Although she still had some baby fat on her, she still looked very pale.
Between his brows, there was also a trace of innocence, but it was even more so in the light of flying spirits.
Even though he was beaten half to death, his spirit was still unable to be destroyed.
It was as dazzling as the tail feathers of a phoenix.
Not... She wasn't Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Qi Huan looked at the arrangement of the room and the shocking mural, once again he was sure that she wasn't Su Xiaoxiao.
She was just a stranger impersonating Su Xiaoxiao.
But... Was it really necessary to tell Lingzhi the truth?
No one could fathom Ling Jin's heart, much less distinguish which of his words were true and which were false.
What if the real Su Xiaoxiao was in danger because of her confirmation?
He couldn't allow his little sister, who had escaped with great difficulty, to fall into his hands …
At least not now.
Only after the king had truly pardoned his crimes and let them go did Su Qi Huan dare to speak the truth.
Su Qi Huan looked deeply at the young girl who was still groaning in pain in her sleep, then turned around and walked out.
The incense stick had yet to burn a tenth of it.
Ling Xuanxin put down the teacup and heard the sound of footsteps walking out from the room. A hint of a smile surfaced in his eyes. Looking closely, it was as if the sky was shining and a thousand miles away passed through his black eyes, carrying with it a heaven-shaking charm.
If it was that quick, it meant that Su Qi Huan had already given him the answer.
If it was really Su Xiaoxiao, Qi Huan wouldn't have come out so quickly.
Although Su Qi Huan wasn't willing to confirm Su Xiaoxiao's identity, Ling Xi had already seen through her innumerable loopholes.
However, he wanted to confirm again and again.
It was not from Ling Qing's own mouth, but from the bottom of his heart that he wanted to truly accept the phoenix.
"Did you see that?" Ling Lingcun's expression did not change as he asked indifferently.
"Watch carefully." Qi Huan frowned and said softly.
"It's been a few months. Do you feel like you're a stranger?" Ling Jin stood up and asked with a smile.
"..." "Is it serious?" Su Qi Huan subconsciously avoided this question and asked.
"Qi Huan, I have already been extremely indulgent towards her. What happened today is the consequence of condoning her. I only hope that he will not make any mistakes in the future by punishing her lightly." Ling Lingzhi said with a faint smile in her eyes.
It didn't matter if it was heavy or not.
"Your Majesty, it's time for this sinner to return." Su Qi Huan was stunned for a moment before he replied.
"Go back." Ling Xuexin walked to the entrance of the palace of the Azure Sky Palace, looked up at the night sky, and said in a low voice, "Wait for you to come out, wait for Ling Xue to come back, and then we will go hunting together at the Gu Jue Mountain."
"Yes, since the time when the king ascended the throne, the country has been busy and there has been no hunting for a long time." Seeing that he actually didn't ask Su Xiaoxiao any more about her, Su Qi calmed down and hurriedly said.
The two men chatted softly as they left the palace. As they blended into the darkness of the night, only the little girl could be seen crying out in pain in her sleep.
"Tyrant! You are not allowed to hit me again! "
"Hit me again …" I'll bite you! "
"Wuu …" "Tyrant, you are going too far!"
The delicate and pretty young girl laid on the bed as she mumbled to herself as she rolled over. Suddenly, she pressed down on her injured buttocks and immediately woke up from the pain.
"Young mistress, are you awake?"
Mei Xin and Xiu Jin who had been waiting by the bed were obviously not as meticulous as Bi Yun and Bi Yao. If Bi Yun and the rest were here, they definitely wouldn't have let the Queen Queen roll over and press down on their wounds.
"Water …" Ling Tian Qing was thirsty, and maybe the water in her body had been drained by her tears, as she said hoarsely.
When Bi Yun heard the sound, she immediately walked over and carefully served Ling Tian Qing with the medicinal porridge that had already dried to a suitable temperature.
"Where's my stuff?" Ling Tian Qing asked as he feebly finished a bowl of porridge. He seemed to have recovered a little.
"What is it?" Hearing this question, Sakura Memories was confused.
"Is' master 'referring to the item that Lord Qingyu sent over?" Bi Yao was still considerate and immediately asked.
"Yes." Ling Tian could not care about the pain in his ass and nodded.
She needed to find something that could protect her, so she wanted her treasure as soon as she woke up.
"So it was delivered by Lord Qingyu …" "The king threw it away." Mei Xin spread out her hands and said helplessly.
"Huh?" Ling Tianqing almost jumped up from the bed, as that was the first thing she wanted to do as a signal transmitter.
"The king said that you are not allowed to bring those random things into the palace." Bi Yun explained.
"What does he know!?" This tyrant who only knows how to suppress others! "
Ling Tian Qing was fuming as she bit her pillow. It would definitely be difficult for her to leave the palace now. She did not know when she would be able to obtain another set of the things she had collected yesterday.
"Mistress, your injuries aren't fully healed yet. Don't be angry, the king heard that …" "Not good." Bi Yao consoled him in a gentle manner, and her face was slightly pale.
This young master was not afraid of beating him at all. Last night, he had been in so much pain, yet now he was still cursing the king in his dreams. He was simply courting death.
"No, give me the jade." The more Ling Tian thought about it, the angrier he got. Yesterday, she had specifically instructed Qing Yu to deliver it to the Heavenly Green Palace, as if it was a will. Yet, she still threw it away.
"Lady Qingyu has left the city today. I heard that she has been sent to the north to assist Hua Hou in resisting the drought." As a palace maid, Bi Yao had a clear understanding of the situation with regards to the Imperial Guard's transfer.
"What about Lan Yi? "Let him come."
"Lan Yi and Lord Lan Feng will go south with Wen Hou and thoroughly investigate the matter regarding the students of the National Academy …"
Ah!" Quick, let Ling Jin meet him!
Ling Tian Qing suddenly thought of the twenty-odd examinees from yesterday.
Although he said that he would not interfere, Ling Tian was born into a new society and grew up under the red flag. His bones were already soaked with the positive energy of a new era, how could he just sit idly and do nothing?
"Your Majesty... "In the Royal Academy." Bi Yun sighed in her heart. Just what was this little mistress up to?
"Where's Mo Yang?" Ling Qing only knew that Mo Yang was the closest to Ling Hao, and that if they found him, they could send him a message.
"Together with Your Majesty, in the Crown Prince's Courtyard." Bi Yao replied.
"Is there no one else in the palace who can carry the message?"
Ling Tian Qing was extremely anxious, she had overslept today, and just as noon arrived, the group of students' heads fell to the ground.
"The red tassel and the green shadow are guarding the palace today." Bi Yun saw the anxious look on the young master's face and immediately said, "This servant will call for you."
"Hurry up and go." Ling Tian Qing laid on the bed and could not move at all. He was like a tortoise, waiting anxiously with his head raised.
Outside the Azure Sky Palace, two young guards were quickly walking into the palace, bowing to each other through the screen.
"Young master, what do you need?" The red tassel rarely saw Ling Qing looking for people in such a hurry, so it thought that something big had happened.
"Take me to Lingjing there." Ling Tian wanted to get up, but his buttocks would still need some rest to recover, so he could only continue to speak while lying on his stomach.
"Young Lord, the King has decreed that you are not to take a step outside the palace." Green Shadow said gently, "We can go to the Dragon Spring for half a day unless it's too hard to bear."
"Is he going to kill those students who cheated?" Ling Tian Qing asked anxiously.
"This is a matter of the imperial government. Young master need not worry." The red tassel replied in an ambiguous manner.
"If he kills those people, wouldn't the wounds on my butt be for nothing?!" Ling Tianqing was extremely agitated. She had never done anything like losing a man's life or a soldier's life.
Even though he had admitted defeat yesterday, Ling Qing was still hoping to wait for Tyrant to be in a better mood before persuading him again.
But he didn't expect that after he fainted, he would sleep till now …
As for Green Shadow and Red Tassel, ever since they were young, this was the first time they heard of a young lady. Furthermore, she was the one with the most noble identity in the future.
Although this girl was usually very strange and would often do unimaginable things, when she heard the words "butt", she felt as if she had seen the king dance …
"Young master …" The red tassel tried to calm itself down, but he didn't know what to say.
"No, I want to meet Ling Xin. If you don't want me to go, then I will crawl over!" Ling Tianqing's angry voice rang out once again.
With a loud 'bang', several palace maids were thrown into a mess.
Green Shadow and Red Tassel were separated by a screen, so they couldn't see what was happening within. They could only deduce from the voice that this stubborn little mistress had done what she said, really wanted to crawl over and then fall off the bed.
"Mistress, are you alright …"
"Master, please say something …"
The palace maids had not been able to support her just now. Ling Tianqing was lying on the ground, her face pale and unable to catch her breath.
After a while, an earth-shattering wail resounded, "Mother, it hurts so much …" "Sob, sob …"
"Bi Yao, take a look at where Master is injured." Green Shadow immediately said in a deep voice.
"I accidentally hit a wound." Bi Yao's voice sounded from within.
He just fell on his butt.
"I want to see Ling Zui. He beat me to such a state, and I also want to kill those scholars …" "Aiya, it hurts so much …" Ling Tian Qing groaned as he protested, "I want to swim/show/show/show/show/show, I want to..."
