    Chapter Index

    It was almost midnight when Su Moyi returned to Dali Temple.

    Tomorrow is the day of the palace family banquet. He wants to take Lin Wanqing into the palace, thinking that there is no extra time to deal with things.He then went to his courtyard first and arranged everything that Emperor Yonghui had told him.

    It was quiet outside, and the rustling of bamboo leaves in the courtyard was like the sound of lingering rain.

    Ever since he came back from Hongzhou, the prison chief didn’t know what happened. He was listless all day long. He was either lying at the gate of the courtyard or lying in his small room.He only gets extremely excited when he goes for a walk, and every time he drags him towards Lin Wanqing’s yard.

    “Prisoner,” Su Moyi put down the things in his hands, walked to the courtyard, and looked at the food and water in the bowl.

    Neither moved much.

    Is this stupid dog sick?

    The warden lay on the ground, only raising his eyelids without even raising his head.

    Su Moyi was a little worried, so she knelt down and rubbed its head, and then checked its nose and teeth.

    No problems found.

    So he asked in confusion: “Want to go for a walk?”

    “Ouch~” As soon as the prisoner heard the news, the dog became energetic and jumped up from the ground. It was so excited that it didn’t look like it was sick at all.

    Su Moyi frowned and led Si Yu out of her yard, thinking that after returning from the family dinner tomorrow, she would have to find a veterinarian to take a look.

    It was a quiet night. After Dali Temple was dismissed, only a few government officials took turns patrolling, so no one was seen along the way.

    Sure enough, the warden dragged Su Moyi towards the direction where Lin Wanqing lived. One person and one dog stopped by the wooden frame covered with wisteria, and they all looked at what was going on in the yard.

    The lights in the room were not out yet, and Su Moyi felt strange, because this was the first time in so many days that Lin Wanqing had not rested when he came here at midnight.

    Could it be that she can’t sleep because of the family dinner tomorrow?

    Thinking of this, he felt a hint of sweetness in his heart.

    So he casually adjusted the jade crown on his head, and carefully arranged the skirt and girdle.When Su Moyi lifted his feet to leave, he found that the jailer was also lowering his head. After looking at himself, he stood up and shook the hair all over his body a little looser, making him look more majestic.

    “…” He twitched the corner of his mouth and pushed open Lin Wanqing’s door with complicated emotions.

    The scene before him was unexpected.

    Under the dim light in the room, four heads turned back together, eight eyes staring intently – Lin Wanqing, Liang Weiping, Xiaobai, and a girl who had never seen Hu before…

    Lin Wanqing must have just taken a shower. Her long hair was casually hanging on her shoulders, and there was still some wet moisture at the end of her hair.The look is lazy and charming, with a bit of cat comfort.

    The warden lowered his eyebrows and walked to Lin Wanqing’s feet. He lay down and rubbed her knees with his head. His bright dog eyes stared at the little white bone.

    Su Moyi was pricked by the prisoner’s dog-licking state, and then looked away from Lin Wanqing.

    Forget about Hu Ji, Liang Weiping stayed up most of the night, why did he come to her?!

    “Sir…” Lin Wanqing saw Mr. Su, whose face was as black as ink, and his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, as if they were turning into two sharp blades, trying to peel off Liang Weiping’s skin and bones.

    However, before the words of explanation could be spoken, he was interrupted by Su Moyi’s slightly angry question, “What are you doing here?”

    “Humble job…”

    Liang Weiping just stood up and was glared at by Su Moyi, “I didn’t ask you.”

    After saying that, he turned around and looked at Lin Wanqing.

    Lin Wanqing hurriedly told Su Moyi what happened on the street today, and added: “I took them back to Dali Temple because I was afraid that if we go out now, we would be targeted by the secret guards again.”

    Su Moyi’s face looked better now.

    He pulled off a piece of jade from his waist, handed it to the two of them and said, “Take this and go to the yamen guard at the door and ask them to take you back.”

    Liang Weiping happily took it, but Hu Ji remained motionless.

    Lin Wanqing immediately grabbed Su Moyi’s sleeve and said warmly: “Lai Luo was sold to the Southland. He was trapped in a brothel before. Now he finally escaped and has nowhere to go. If she is sent back to the street, there is no guarantee that Mr. Chen will not trouble her. Today we can count on her help…”

    “Lin Wanqing,” Su Moyi looked down at her with a cold tone, “You can just bring some random people into Dali Temple, but now you are using this place as a shelter?”

    Lin Wanqing curled her lips.

    She knew that every time Su Moyi called her full name, she was really angry.

    But…

    She raised her head and looked at the thinly dressed woman in front of her.It is now early October, Shengjing is far north, and the climate is cold.After several autumn rains, there were already signs of winter, but she was still wearing a single coat. She was shivering from the cold just now when she was sitting in the house.

    Lin Wanqing really couldn’t bear to drive her away.

    So, with some embarrassment, she motioned to Liang Weiping and Lai Luo to go out first, then turned around and pulled Su Moyi to the couch on one side.

    He was still very angry, pouring tea by himself with a cold face, not looking at her.

    Lin Wanqing also learned to behave well when asking for help from others.With quick eyesight and quick hands, she snatched the teacup from Mr. Su’s hand, and then picked up the teapot next to it.

    The dripping tea has a light color. Under the candlelight, the beauty’s slender white fingers, like jade carvings, poked out from the mist of water vapor. She handed the tea to Su Moyi with both hands.

    His heartbeat was beating rapidly, but Mr. Su, who had always been calm, remained calm.

    He took the tea cup silently and took a sip.

    Lin Wanqing on the side carefully observed he’s face and deliberately moved closer.

    “Sir…” She slowed down her tone, softly, as if she was begging for mercy after a beautiful night and when she was extremely tired.

    Su Moyi felt as if there was an extra cat on his chest, scratching the tip of his heart with its furry claws.

    “If Dali Temple can’t accept it, the Prince’s Mansion can always find something for her to do, right?”

    Su Moyi ignored her and buried herself in drinking tea.

    “Sir…” Seeing that Su Moyi’s expression softened a little, she leaned against him, and the next moment she held his hand under her wide sleeves.

    Mr. Su’s palms were already sweaty.

    Lin Wanqing, who smelled hope, bit her lip, stretched out her index finger, and lightly scratched He’s broad palm.

    “That second young master is really extremely arrogant. If it hadn’t been for Lai Luo today, those secret guards would have really hurt Brother Liang and me… Liang Weiping…”

    After saying that, Lin Wanqing put her calf on Su Moyi’s lap, and then opened her trousers, revealing her red and swollen knees.

    “Look, it’s all broken.”

    “He did it?” Su Moyi’s tone suddenly turned cold.

    “Yeah!” Lin Wanqing nodded, aggrieved, “They even went under the knife.”

    Su Moyi’s breathing became deeper after hearing this, and her face calmly became three points darker.

    Lin Wanqing was afraid that he would go astray, so she quickly turned around and put her arms around his waist, cupping his neck and saying, “You know I never want to owe a favor. Now that I have limited ability, I can’t repay Lailuo. I only have adults, so I can only ask for your help.”

    She didn’t know which words touched Su Moyi. Lin Wanqing felt that his breath seemed to be a little hotter. Under the dim light in the room, he could even see his heaving chest.

    “You can only ask me for help?” he asked, looking down at her.

    Lin Wanqing was stunned for a moment, seeing a hint of joy in he’s eyes, and then nodded confusedly.

    Su Moyi looked at her fawning look and suddenly laughed out loud.

    The last time I saw her like this was when she drank “Huoxin”, but now she dares to be more and more presumptuous in front of him.

    Lin Wanqing saw he smiled but said nothing.Just thinking that he had acquiesced, and worried that he would regret it, he simply shouted outside, “Lai Luo, Mr. Su agreed, come in quickly and thank you, Mr. Su.”

    “…” Mr. Su, who was beheaded first and then punished, felt a little heartbroken for a moment.

    But it was she who said this. If she regrets it now, she will inevitably lose her grace in front of a woman.

    After all, the Prince’s family has a great cause, and it is only a matter of words to protect anyone, so Su Moyi stopped arguing with her and nodded in agreement.

    When the night finally fell, Su Moyi changed out of her clothes, washed herself and leaned on the bedside to read as usual, waiting for Lin Wanqing to wring her hair dry.

    By the time she climbed into bed, midnight was almost over.

    Su Moyi naturally leaned over and pressed her down.

    “My lord, what are you doing?” Lin Wanqing put her hand on He’s slightly undressed chest and asked innocently.

    Su Moyi raised her lips slightly and asked with a smile: “What do you think? I have been busy since I came back from Hongzhou. How long have we not…”

    “But my little day is here.” Lin Wanqing blinked, especially sincerely.

    Su Moyi then remembered and counted the days, it seemed that she was indeed in these days.

    Therefore, when she showed weakness and flirted with Lai Luo just now, she did not intend to “use sex for personal gain” at all.

    Su Moyi suddenly felt that her chest was even more congested.

    Seeing that he was deflated, Lin Wanqing secretly curled up the corner of his mouth, stood up and pressed a kiss on his lips, saying, “My lord, you have been working hard for days and you should have a good rest. Go to sleep.”

    After saying that, he turned off the lights, turned around and fell asleep, leaving him with the thought of “burning bridges across rivers”.

    Su Moyi: “…”

    The next day was the family dinner in the palace that the Queen Mother had mentioned before.

    Because Lin Wanqing’s identity should not be made public, the Queen Mother only hosted a banquet for a few of her most respected relatives in the royal family. Even the concubines in the harem could only attend the banquet.

    Su Moyi still had to go to court early in the morning, but before he left, he told Lin Wanqing to wait for him at Zifu earlier.

    When he returned to the Prince’s Mansion from Xuanzheng Palace to pick her up, Lai Luo was dressing up for her.

    She chose a daylily-colored chest-length undershirt today, paired with an elegant moon-white dark-patterned large-sleeved blouse.The rouge and lipstick are also light coral color. Matched with her fair and jade-like skin, she looks dignified and elegant, yet bright and charming.

    Su Moyi was stunned.

    “Sir,” Lin Wanqing saw he in the mirror and called out in a soft voice.

    Su Moyi pretended to look away, her ears secretly turning red as always.

    “You can go.”

    He walked over, took her hand to warm it, put a fox fur cloak in his hand over her body, and stuffed a hand stove with the right temperature into her arms.

    The carriage stopped outside Xuanwu Gate. Su Moyi led Lin Wanqing and walked to Linde Hall, led by a group of palace attendants.

    In early winter, the night wind is cold and cool.

    However, the majestic hall in front of me was brilliantly lit, and countless melon-shaped palace lanterns reflected the blue waves of Taiye Pool like stars.When people walk among them, they feel like they are walking under the stars.

    Lin Wanqing suddenly felt an unreal feeling, and followed Su Moyi’s footsteps and suddenly slowed down.

    “What’s wrong?” he stopped and asked her.

    Lin Wanqing shook his head and said with a smile: “It’s nothing, it’s just that my legs are a little weak when walking.”

    After saying that, he covered the stove, buried his head and started to move forward.

    “Wait a minute,” Su Moyi called her, frowning slightly and looking at her bun.

    “What’s wrong?” Lin Wanqing couldn’t see it, so she could only touch it at a loss, but Su Moyi held her hand halfway.

    “The hairpin at the back is a little loose,” Su Mo recalled, “I’ll reinsert it for you, and you turn around.”

    “Oh,” Lin Wanqing turned her back obediently and lowered her head.

    In the coolness, Lin Wanqing could feel Su Moyi approaching, his hot breath caressing the back of her neck, a little itchy.

    She ducked forward.

    The next moment, two soft, warm lips gently landed on the back of her neck.

    Lin Wanqing trembled all over.

    “You!”

    She never expected that Mr. Su, who had always been serious, would actually kiss her in such a situation. She immediately blushed, feeling embarrassed and annoyed.

    Therefore, he could only cover the back of his neck with one hand while using his peripheral vision to glance at the palace attendants following him.

    Fortunately, the people in the palace are well-trained after all.Royal relatives and distinguished guests generally avoid looking directly at their faces. Those people just followed them and didn’t dare to look up.

    But it’s still too embarrassing.

    Lin Wanqing was speechless for a moment, looking at Su Moyi’s face that was as red as her, “You” for a long time, but still couldn’t finish what she said.

    “Okay,” Su Moyi pulled down the hand covering her neck and said, “I’m here, don’t be afraid.”

    ——————

    Qingqing: Woohoo, someone is bullying me!My knees are all broken!Look!

    Mr. Su: Ha… I have learned how to complain.
