The Evil Emperor's Beloved

"Nothing can be hidden from grandpa's eyes! Hehe..."

Old Master Jing rolled his eyes at her and said seriously, "You don't need to get involved in this matter. Do you think those old guys don't know the importance of this matter?"

"Don't worry, your grandfather is not senile yet." He said, touching his few beards with his hand.

The old guys that Grandpa Jing referred to were of course the Si, Leng and Wen families.

Seeing that Mr. Jing knew what was going on, Jing Yueli didn't have to control everything at this point.

Besides, after she left Xuanyuan Dynasty to go to the academy, they still had to support the family on their own.

"Okay, it'll all be up to grandpa then." Jing Yueli looked calm. Seeing that she didn't leave, Grandpa Jing asked again.

"What? Is there anything else?"

"Uh..." This question confused Jing Yueli.

"Are you okay? If you're okay, go away. I'm busy!"

Jing Yueli looked constipated after hearing this. It took her a long time to react and she immediately got angry, "Grandpa, am I that kind of person?"

Jing Yueli stood up and paced back and forth in the study room, listening to what she continued.

"Humph! I'm not leaving today! Yes, I want to have lunch with Grandpa, play chess and drink tea in the afternoon."

Speaking of drinking tea, Jing Yueli remembered that she had not given tea to grandfather yet, so Grandpa Jing waved her little hand and two cans of tea appeared on the desk.

Jing Yueli raised her eyebrows, as if to say, "Look, I've been very good to you, don't always think that your granddaughter only comes to you when she has something wrong."

Old Master Jing was amused by her funny appearance and exaggerated expression, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, it won't take long to show off, go ahead."

Well, Jing Yueli left Grandpa Jing’s study under the caring gaze of her grandfather.

After leaving the study, Jing Yueli wanted to go out for a walk. As soon as she stepped out of the door, she heard a voice saying faintly, "Miss, do you still need lunch?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the air froze instantly. This was so awkward. There was no way this matter could be resolved!

Jing Yueli was furious and walked out of Grandpa Jing's yard without looking back.

Old Master Jing looked at Jing Yueli who was walking away with a look of disappointment on his face, but unfortunately Jing Yueli didn't see it.

Uncle Zhong walked in, holding the tea leaves Jing Yueli had just given him, and was about to make tea for the old man. He heard the old man mutter, "Hey, the child is grown up now, and we can't always think about tying her to our side."

Uncle Zhong just paused for a moment and then continued to make tea.

......

On the other side, Jing Yueli actually went out for a walk.

Obviously, the imperial capital is now overcrowded, with people from all over the world flocking here.

Not long after she walked, she heard someone calling her, "Yueli, Yueeli, here."

Jing Yueli looked up in the direction of the voice and saw Leng Tianshuang on the second floor of Youxian Pavilion. The little hand waving at her was almost leaving an afterimage.

This girl is still so "lively".

When Jing Yueli and Li Xue came to the private room on the second floor of Youxian Pavilion where Leng Tianshuang was, they found out that there were other people in the room besides Leng Tianshuang, including Leng Tianchao, Leng Tianchang, Xuanyuan Chen, and three others she had never seen before, but judging from their looks, they should also be from the Leng family.

Jing Yueli was not very familiar with the people in the Leng family. At most, she had met Leng Tianchang, and then she met the siblings Leng Tianchao and Leng Tianshuang during the last training.

"So many people are here. Am I being a bit abrupt by coming in like this?" Jing Yueli didn't feel that everyone here welcomed her arrival, like the girl in white who was secretly looking at her in a corner.

Jing Yueli had a natural sensitivity to the good and evil of others, and even though the other person was only observing her secretly, the disdain in his eyes could not be concealed.

"Yueli, it's being too polite of you to say that." Having said that, Leng Tianshuang stood up and walked to the door, pulled Jing Yueli in, and arranged for her to sit next to her.

With Jing Yueli's joining, the atmosphere became quiet for a while.

For a moment, the only sound in the whole room was the sound of people sipping tea.

There is a saying that goes, as long as you don’t feel embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.

Therefore, Jing Yueli just sat there quietly, not taking the initiative to speak. When others talked about their own things, she did not participate, nor did she make any comments.

“Tianshuang, you are the only girl in our Leng family who has reached the foundation building stage. You will definitely get a spot in the Five Nations Competition.”

When Jing Yueli heard about the quota for the Five Nations Competition, she pricked up her ears. She was interested in this.

The words just now were said by one of the two young masters whom Jing Yueli did not know. If Jing Yueli guessed correctly, he should be from the second branch of the Leng family.

He will definitely be brought to Xuanyuan Chen, and he is also with Leng Tianchao and the others. He must be from the second branch of the Leng family.

"Cousin, I heard that you also built your foundation during this training? Then you must have encountered a great opportunity during this training. Come on, tell me about it."

Sure enough, Jing Yueli's guess was correct, it was from the second branch of the Leng family.

The two young masters and young ladies from the second branch of the Leng family are younger than Xuanyuan Chen, so they call him cousin, while Leng Tianchao calls him cousin.

“Although Tianshuang went into seclusion to build his foundation after returning, it is not easy to build a foundation without a foundation-building pill.”

“Are you guys…” Although he didn’t finish his words, those who understood knew what he wanted to say next.

Jing Yueli stood aside like a spectator, watching the three people from the second branch of the Leng family singing the same tune, wanting them to tell her the origin of the Foundation Establishment Pill, but they told her so lightly.

What made Jing Yueli feel strange was another thing.

According to common sense, it should not be a secret in the Leng family that Leng Tianshuang obtained the foundation-building pill. But judging from the reactions of these people just now, even if Leng Tianshuang successfully built the foundation, they still didn't know that Leng Tianshuang built the foundation because of the foundation-building pill?

Jing Yueli looked at Leng Tianchao in confusion, and saw that he was holding the teacup with a gloomy face and his lips pursed into a straight line.

Uh....

It seems that something happened that Jing Yueli didn't know about.

Jing Yueli immediately thought of the second elder. It couldn’t be what she thought.

At this moment, Leng Tianshuang leaned over and told Jing Yueli everything that had happened after she came back, like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

As Jing Yueli guessed, the second branch of the family was actually related to the second elder. Tell me if it's ridiculous or not, a brother from the same mother actually teamed up with outsiders to trip up his brother's child during training.

Although it was finally found out that it was the intention of the second wife's family, they were not aware of it.

It doesn't matter whose idea it was, it's done.

During this experience, it would be good if you didn't encounter any life-threatening situations, but if you are not careful, it could be a matter of life and death.

Even if this matter had nothing to do with Jing Yueli, it still made her feel heartbroken.

Leng Tianshuang and her friends had originally made an appointment to have tea with Xuanyuan Chen in the teahouse today, but unexpectedly, before they had even sat down, three people from the second room arrived.

It was so cold and frosty, it was obvious that it had been secretly monitoring them.

That's why Leng Tianshuang called Jing Yueli up.

It feels like Jing Yueli became the breakthrough point in this awkward atmosphere, but obviously, Jing Yueli didn't play any role either.
