Baili Mingyue looked up at the full moon that was blocked by the dark clouds, nodding, "Yes, it's indeed very good!"
"Huh?" Hong Zhong turned his head to look at him with a strange expression and said, "It's really good."
Seemingly sensing the confusion of the red bell, Baili Mingyue smiled, "The moonlight is indeed beautiful, but there is also a beauty hidden within the haze." Under the beautiful light of the palace lamp overflowing from the roof of the Tong Hua Pavilion, one could see the gentleness and elegance in Baili Mingyue's clear eyes, as always, without any malice or signs of extreme anger.
He was pretending as if nothing had happened, but he still wanted to kill her in his heart. She would not believe that the cold-blooded and ruthless Lord Regent of South Qi would let her go so easily. She thought for a moment before hesitating, "Are you thinking about how to kill me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, he burst into laughter. His clear laughter was as sweet as ever, but soon after, he couldn't help but cover his mouth with his hand, coughing a few times. "Little girl, what are you thinking about?"
"What?" Hong Zhong was momentarily stunned. Could it be that he didn't want to kill me right now? " "Um, you …" Before he finished speaking, there was the sound of uniform footsteps coming from under the eaves, causing Hong Zhong's expression to change. A large group of imperial guards holding bows and arrows quickly gathered under the eaves, all of them glaring at the people on top of the eaves with fiendish expressions.
This damnable woman, not only did she scold the Emperor by name, but she also scolded their esteemed Regent. More importantly, she scolded them when they were on guard duty, this wasn't an attempt to have them all be executed by the Emperor.
"Who's up there! Get the hell down here and surrender!" The leader of the group said in a cold voice.
At this moment, Hong Zhong still didn't know that the imperial guards below had already executed her thousands of times in her heart. Facing the glittering arrowhead, she quickly strode behind Baili Mingyue, pulling him in front of her as she stuck her head out from behind the fairy-like man, carefully gazing at the imperial guards under the eaves.
As if feeling the other party's gaze of astonishment, Hong Zhong hid behind Baili Mingyue and straightened his back, pointing at the imperial guards below. You won't ignore me, will you? " He was the Regent, so it was not wrong to use him as a shield. The most important thing was that he was also involved in the previous matter!
"Hur hur." Baili Mingyue ignored the people below, as she smiled faintly, "How do you know that I won't ignore you?"
"..." Could she say that she didn't know, that she was just spouting nonsense?
Before Hong Zhong had a chance to speak, the leader of the imperial guards shouted, "Archers, prepare!" It turned out that they saw that the two men in front of them were not putting them in their eyes at all, and now they were preparing to kill them on the spot, regardless of whether they were dead or alive!
When Hong Zhong heard those words, he nervously approached Baili Mingyue. He smelled the faint fragrance of the snow lotus on his body, and looked at his beautiful appearance. He blinked his eyes at him, indicating with his eyes that he wasn't going to ignore him, was he? If you don't open your mouth, I will drag you down with me!
However, in just a few blinks of an eye, the chilly night wind blew away the dark clouds that covered the moon. The bright and clean jade plate hung high up in the sky, and the hazy night suddenly brightened up by quite a bit.
When the imperial guards below saw the cold and noble figure on the rooftop, they were clearly startled. Then, under the lead of the leader, they quickly put down their weapons and knelt down, "This general greets the Regent."
Baili Mingyue didn't even spare them a glance as she replied in an indifferent tone, "Mmm, get up."
"Thank you, Your Highness Regent." After everyone had stood up in unison, the leader of the imperial guards took a step forward and bowed his head respectfully as he reported, "This general is the leader of the imperial guards, Chu Han. Tonight, I am leading my subordinates to stay at the palace and I just happened to hear someone shouting loudly and maliciously …" Your Majesty!
Before Chu Han could finish his words, Baili Mingyue lightly raised his hand, "If that's the case, why don't you go and search for that reckless thief? Instead, you might disrupt my interest in admiring the moon."
However, that sound was clearly coming from that direction!
"After you find the thief, go get 20 military sticks for yourself!" Baili Mingyue's tone was light, but it carried an irrefutable aura.
"Thank you for your kindness, Regent." Chu Han respectfully lowered his head to accept the order, before waving his hand to the crowd behind him, "Let's go, you guys follow me to search, we must find that thief!"
