At this time, it was already evening outside, and Chu Haochen in the space slowly woke up.

He turned his head to look at the little woman who was already asleep beside the bed, feeling relieved.

"Qing'er..."

Lu Qingqing seemed to hear Chu Haochen's shout in her dream. She tried desperately to respond to him, but she couldn't make a sound.

Chu Haochen noticed that Qing'er's body kept shaking, as if struggling, and he shouted worriedly.

"Qing'er, Qing'er wake up."

Lu Qingqing was finally woken up from her nightmare by Chu Haochen's anxious shout.

Chu Haochen looked at the thin layer of sweat on Qing'er's forehead and wiped it with his sleeves distressedly.

Her heart tightened and her palms became slightly wet. Lu Qingqing, who had regained consciousness, was surprised to find that Chu Haochen had really woken up.

"Chu Haochen, you really woke up, that's great, woo woo..."

Lu Qingqing threw herself on him and cried loudly. Lu Qingqing had never been scared before, but this time it was different.

Chu Haochen stroked her back and comforted her:

"Qing'er, don't cry. Look, am I okay?"

Lu Qingqing lay there crying until her voice softened little by little, and then Chu Haochen pulled her onto the bed.

"Chu Haochen, please don't move again..."

Lu Qingqing's eyes widened in concern.

Chu Haochen smiled slightly and soothed Lu Qingqing's emotions in a soft voice, saying that he was really fine and told her not to worry, otherwise he would feel bad too.

"Chu Haochen, you must be like this from now on. I'm afraid I will really collapse..."

He held Lu Qingqing in his arms and promised in a gentle voice that as long as she was not in danger, he would not use kung fu easily again.

Lu Qingqing listened to Chu Haochen's assurance that it was as if he hadn't said anything. She frowned and stared at him displeased. It wasn't until Chu Haochen surrendered that she slowly regained her calm mood.

At this time, Xia Yun knocked on the door and whispered that it was time to eat.

Lu Qingqing quickly got out of bed, straightened her clothes, and then shouted toward the door: "Come in."

Xia Yun pushed open the door and walked into the room with a food box. At this time, Lu Qingqing asked her master if he had sent food?

"Master, don't worry, the slave has been sent away." Xia Yun said to Lu Qingqing, and found that King Chen had woken up, and quickly leaned over.

"Okay, put it down. You've worked hard too. Let's go have a meal first."

Lu Qingqing raised the corner of her lips and told Xia Yun, while she slowly walked to the table, looked at the rich chicken soup that Xia Yun served in the food box, and scooped out a bowl.

Xia Yun leaned over and exited the room.

Lu Qingqing came to the bedside with chicken soup and sat down: "Chu Haochen, drink some chicken soup. If you keep struggling like this, you won't need to lose your body."

Chu Haochen leaned on the bedside, raised the corners of his lips and enjoyed the little woman's service.

At this time, Namu Zhu and Ling Xi, who had just returned to the post house, were chatting when there was a knock on the door outside.

The person who came was none other than Ling Xi’s subordinate.

"What are you going to do? Is there anything going on?" Namuzhu pursed her lips and pulled Ling Xi's arm and asked.

Ling Xi helplessly explained to her that something must have happened to her subordinate, so he asked her to eat by herself. Tonight, he asked someone to buy the city's most delicious soup dumplings.

"Didn't you say you like to eat before?"

Namu Zhu's eyes lit up when she heard this, but she was still worried about Ling Xi not being able to accompany her for dinner, and she asked him to come back early in displeasure.

Ling Xi caressed her cheek, turned and left the room.

The subordinates outside the door followed their master towards the study.

Ling Xi came to the study and sat down slowly, asking what he had found?

"Your Majesty, my subordinates searched the place where Princess Anhe was assassinated before they went there, and found nothing special. However, on the way back, they strangely encountered two men riding horses straight to the back hill of the nunnery. They were followed by my subordinates. When I went there, the people were gone.”

Ling Xi frowned in confusion and ordered him to continue to stare at the back hill of the nunnery and pay more attention to the nuns in front to see if there was anything strange.

"Yes, I understand. Master... Concubine Lian from Cangnan has sent a message, urging the master to go back as soon as possible."

Ling Xi smiled coldly and waved her hand towards him, asking him to go down first.

The man leaned over and exited the study.

Ling Xi slowly stood up and came to the window to look at the night outside, and sneered, could that woman Lian Fei not be able to stay any longer?

"Haha...there will be more days like this in the future, just take your time..."

After he finished muttering to himself, he walked out of the study with his hands behind his back and walked straight towards Namuzhu's room. Looking at the figure moving back and forth in front of the window, Ling Xi raised the corners of his lips, knowing that this silly woman would Wait until he comes back.

Ling Xi opened the door and saw Namu Zhu in the room comparing the hairpins she bought today.

When he saw Ling Xi walking in, he immediately dropped the pearl hairpin in his hand and rushed toward him.

"My lord, are you back?"

Ling Xi pinched her cheek and asked why she didn't rest yet?

He could only hear his little princess saying coquettishly: "Oh, aren't I, my concubine, waiting for the king?"

Then she asked if everything had been resolved? Why are you so anxious?

Ling Xi did not hide anything, saying that Concubine Lian sent a message and hoped that he would return as soon as possible.

When Ling Xi raised his eyes again, he saw Na Mu Zhu staring at him with reddish eyes.

"My lord...do you miss that old woman? Or..."

Ling Xi laughed out loud when she heard Namu Zhu's words, shook her head helplessly and said with a smile:

"What are you talking about? Stop thinking nonsense. Is it okay for me to go back after having enough fun with you?"

When Namu Zhu heard Ling Xi's words, she had a sad face just now. At this moment, the rain cleared and the sky cleared, and she laughed happily.

At this time, she asked how things were going with Ling Xi'an and the princess?

Ling Xi looked at her and raised the corners of his lips slightly. At this time, the two people in the space didn't know that someone was worried about them.

Even Bai Moxuan in the palace received the news and already knew about the assassination of the junior sister. He heard the eunuch from the master's palace came to report after the morning meeting, but the master was not found early in the morning.

He then knew that the master should go to the little junior sister's place.

The hidden guards he sent early in the morning have reported back. It seems that the matter is far from simple as he thought. As for sending out dead soldiers...

Bai Moxuan's face was gloomy and terrifying. There were only a handful of people in the Qingyun Kingdom who could support the dead. Could it be...

"I, my concubine, come to see the Emperor."

Bai Moxuan turned around and saw Ouyang Ruolan walking in. He frowned slightly, then slowly walked to the soft couch and sat down.

He motioned for her to get up and sit down to chat.

Ouyang Ruolan was flattered and slowly walked to the emperor's side and sat down. The admiration in her eyes was somewhat hidden by her.

"What brings Concubine Lan here?"

A slight smile appeared on Ouyang Ruolan's gentle and beautiful face, and then she slowly and softly said to the emperor: "I come here to thank the emperor for your care during this time. I really have nothing to repay."
