Chapter 78: Reunion with Princess Lingruo

was trembling all over, let out a sigh of relief upon hearing this.He's lucky to be alive!Zhao Shen kowtowed heavily towards the Emperor once more: "Thank Your Majesty for your grace!"The Emperor's sh...Qingxuan blushed instantly upon hearing this.

She only went out to buy some things, but she acted like she was going away for ten days and a half month.

She let out a light cough, her face flushed as she avoided Nangong Ye's gaze.

"I... I'll be back soon, my lord. Please rest well at home."

Qingxuan finished speaking and hurriedly turned away, however the shy look of a newlywed bride just moments ago was imprinted in Nangong Ye's eyes.

After Qingxuan left, Nangong Ye poured himself a cup of hot tea at the window. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the desolate scene in the courtyard.

At this moment, the tenderness in his eyes that he had shown towards Qin Xi just now was gone. Instead, they turned cold and stern.

His courtyard used to be filled with birdsong and fragrance, so elegant, but now...

Even his meticulously raised two yellow orioles ultimately couldn't escape their fate of being cooked to feed him and his wife.

Nan Gong Ye coldly said, "Such decline is also time to end."

On the bustling street, Qing Xuan wore a veil. Yun Sheng, due to his white hair and prominent white eyebrows, was easily recognizable. To avoid being recognized, Qing Xuan had Yun Sheng wear a mask.

Yun Sheng followed Qing Xuan closely.

As she passed by the Wǔwèijū restaurant, she smelled the aroma of roasted chicken, and she even clearly heard Yún shēng swallow.

As a medicine man, Yunshen wasn't allowed to eat too much. His previous master raised him like a dog. However, Yunshen is growing now and has a big appetite. These days, he's been eating millet porridge with her and Nan Gong Ye in the mansion. He can't have fresh meat, so smelling this chicken fragrance, he can't help but drool.

Qingxuan’s footsteps came to a halt.

Outside the tavern, Yun Sheng stared intently at the roasted chicken hanging in front of Wu Wei Ju, attracting customers. For a moment, he hadn't reacted.

Yun Sheng bumped straight into Qing Xuan's back.

"Master, it was Yun Sheng who was at fault! It was Yun Sheng's carelessness that he did not notice Master had stopped. Yun Sheng is willing to accept Master's punishment."

If it weren't for Qingxuan forbidding him from kneeling casually, and they were still on the street, he would have immediately knelt down and apologized.

Yun Sheng's voice was grave and tense, as if he had committed a heinous crime.

Unexpectedly, Yun Sheng had such a big reaction. This once again reminded Qing Xuan of the past when Yun Sheng was confined in an iron cage and lived a life worse than that of a pig or a dog.

As a drug dealer, I've been confined to a cage for years. A beating that leaves my skin torn and flesh bloody is considered light; sometimes they even threaten my life directly.

"Yun Sheng, there's no need to be so nervous. I also stopped because of the delicious smell of this roasted chicken. There's still time for us to eat something. Come inside first, have some roasted chicken and then we'll go to the black market."

Yun Sheng was still in shock, blaming himself for his rashness. Hearing Qing Xuan's words, he was stunned.

"Does the master want to eat roast chicken too"

"Hmm."

Across the curtain, Qingxuan couldn't see the tears in Yunshen's eyes at that moment.

He knew his master wasn't greedy for food, it was him who was too hungry staring at the roast chicken that he bumped into his master.

Instead of punishing him, the master even took him inside to eat roast chicken with such a lame excuse.

Yun Sheng's voice choked with emotion: "Master... Your kindness to Yun Sheng, Yun Sheng will repay it a lifetime! But at this moment, Yun Sheng is not hungry, so there's no need to eat this roast chicken."

If he delays his master's affairs, he will only blame himself more.

Who knew Qingxuan saw through his thoughts: "No worries, actually I'm not the main reason for bringing you in to eat. It's because the Prince enjoys their roasted chicken. After we finish eating, we'll get him two packed in plain oil paper to take back."

When Qingxuan moved out of Nangong Ye's residence, Yun Sheng could no longer insist on his position.

She and Yunsheng walked into Wuwei Ju: "Little Er, a private room for dining."

As she held a special status, Yun Sheng was inconvenient to appear in public. Therefore, he planned to eat roasted chicken inside his study.

"Alright! This way, please, both of you!"

The waiter enthusiastically led the way.

Suddenly, a haughty female voice rang out from behind her: "Waiter, a private room!"

This voice, she seems to have heard it somewhere before.

Qingxuan's steps faltered.

She turned her head and saw a woman in a flamboyant red dress.

This woman is actually Ling Ruoyun, the princess of Ling County. hot tea. 。Zhou Hong: “The princess..." 。Zhou Hong hurriedly took the tea, but in that instant, she was splashed by the accidentally spilled hot tea on her back. 。Fortunately, the hot tea wasn't too s...
