However, could it be that he doesn't recognize me? Even though I'm dressed up as a woman... Oh, by the way, I'm wearing a human skin mask!
Thinking of this, I quickly lowered my head.
I remembered in my heart Bai Lin's order that you, Miss, should never reveal your identity. If the Emperor were to find out that you had barged into the temple at night, he would definitely be in big trouble! More importantly, if the emperor knew that Bai Lian was a woman, then the entire Bai Clan would be in trouble. This was the crime of cheating on the king, and the Bai Clan would be executed!
Thus, when the Emperor looked at me with piercing eyes and questioned me, I lowered my head and muttered, "I … I am a servant girl in the temple …"
"A maid? There is no maid of such beauty in the godly temple! "
The Emperor raised his hand to my chin, glanced at it, and then suddenly tore my mask from my face!
Ah, he saw it! What sharp eyes!
With my skin exposed to the air, I knew I couldn't continue pretending. I could only grimace, "Your Majesty …"
The Emperor gasped and stared at me in astonishment! He was surprised and also shocked, "Bai, Bai Lian's beloved daughter! So it's you! "
"Your Majesty …"
"You dressed up like this and barged into the temple late at night. What are you trying to do?" The Emperor took a deep breath, then quickly recovered his calm. His knife was still on my neck, and he didn't seem ready to let go of me.
I didn't dare to move. I was afraid that if I struggled, I would alarm the others and attract the guards.
"I... That, I saw the flowers here blooming well today, so I wanted to come up and pick two of them. " I humph.
"Really?" So it turns out that my beloved one likes cherry blossoms? " As the Emperor spoke, he pushed me to the side of the pond. You are a woman! "
Ah … This guy, he was really outrageous!
When his hand touched my body, I was drenched all over again. At this moment, I naturally couldn't hide this woman's identity anymore!
I felt ashamed and angry, and the Emperor's voice was tinged with anger. "Why are you pretending to be Bai Lian? "Speak!"
He seemed to hate the idea of someone pretending to be Bai Lian.
I panicked and had to keep silent, because I didn't know how to answer.
To admit that he was Bai Lian was to feel that he had committed the crime of deceiving the monarch; to refuse to admit it, he would be treated as an assassin. I'm so depressed that you're going to die anyway... Can't you give me a third option?
The Emperor brought the sword to my neck again. The sword was sharp and cold, and I was soaked in hot water, but I couldn't help but shiver.
Forget it, I don't need to admit my identity. Otherwise, I will implicate the Bai Clan! Since the emperor thinks I'm not Bai Lian, then I won't admit it!
Thinking of this, I clenched my teeth, intending to continue my heroic and unyielding spirit. All of a sudden, many brilliant images of the revolutionary advance rumbled through my mind...
The emperor was a little angry. "Are you really not afraid of death? Very good. "In that case, don't blame us for being impolite!"
After he finished speaking, his hands began to move towards her!
Ah, pervert!
Startled, I subconsciously covered my chest … Although I love eating beauties' tofu, but tofu and being tofu are two completely different things!
"Stop, what are you doing … "Please spare my life, Your Majesty!"
The Emperor started slightly, then pulled me closer to him, my face almost touching his nose!
He reached out and pinched my face, wondering what he was trying to do. Finally, he said, "If you look at it up close, your face is really pretty."
Then his eyes fell on my chest, paused, and then jerked away.
His breathing became rapid, but his eyes were filled with confusion. "Even the sound is so similar! Damn it! "
I felt that his mind seemed to waver at this moment. Why? Bai Lian?
This emperor seemed to have some extraordinary feelings for General Bai Lian!
However, this isn't the time to think about this. Since he's distracted, I'll take this opportunity to escape!
I took advantage of his inattentiveness to bite the back of his hand!
"Hiss …" The beauty was in pain and her hand was pulled back. I took the opportunity to escape the range of his treasured sword! Then, I used my movement arts and flew straight up towards the cherry blossom tree's crown!
However, just as he rose two meters into the air, a golden light flashed in the darkness!
I looked down and saw that the Demonic Mirror had fallen into the water!
That faint golden light had appeared from the mirror!
The golden light was dragon qi! Although it was still not very clear, I was certain that it was due to the mirror's reflection in the beauty's face as it fell, which caused some sort of resonance.
'Dragon Qi! This guy really has dragon Qi! '
I was stunned for a moment and immediately wanted to go back to pick up the Demonic Mirror. Unexpectedly, the beauty's speed was even faster than mine and the mirror was snatched away by him!
He held the mirror and sized it up. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. Then, with a bang, he threw it ten feet away.
"Hmph, with something like this, you still dare to plot against me!"
Hey, don't break my mirror!
My heart ached, and I threw myself at the edge of the pool. The Emperor got up and came over.
I picked up the mirror and turned to run, but I was so frightened by him that I fell to the ground!
Ah, this shameless Emperor, you come out of the baths like this, I'll get a needle in my eye!
He walked naked up the steps beside the sacred pool, and I covered my eyes reflexively.
A chuckle came from the other side, and I opened my fingers in bewilderment to discover that he was wearing underpants.
Heh, that was close!
It was only a split-second before the Emperor quickly put on his outer robe.
He walked towards me so fast that before I could react, he grabbed my lapel. "Have you seen enough of me?"
How am I supposed to answer this question? The beauty was so beautiful, how could she have had enough time to see it?
I stared into his dark eyes and gulped. "No," I said honestly.
The beauty was a little surprised. She smiled and pursed her lips, "Oh, so it is now my turn to take a look?"
Ah?
Before I could react, I heard a "chi" sound. My clothes were torn by him!
"Get lost!"
I turned around to escape, but my clothes were torn by him. The next second, the emperor's face changed!
A splash of water struck me, and I plummeted to the ground! I was slightly shocked … This Emperor had such deep inner strength! But didn't Bai Lin say that his martial arts couldn't compare to mine? Bai Lin, it can't be that you lied to me just to flatter me, right?
I wanted to cry, but the emperor's expression turned serious. His eyes no longer had that teasing look from before, but his pupils suddenly contracted!
It turned out that while I was struggling, my clothes had already been torn by him. Thus, I miserably revealed a exposed piece of skin on my back, while the Emperor clearly saw the Divine Seal on my shoulder!
"Divine Seal!"
Shocked, he ran his fingers over my back shoulder.
His hand trembled as he touched my skin.
In a panic, I tidied up my clothes and tried to keep them from leaking out. At this moment, my heart was in chaos!
The emperor stared fixedly at my shoulder. After a long time, he finally said with difficulty, "You …. He really is a member of the Bai Clan! "
My heart thumped. Crap, I was still discovered by him!
"This, I can explain!" I said quickly.
The emperor ignored me and said to himself, "Besides, you're a woman! You... Is it really Bai Lian? "
