The night light illuminated the Imperial Master's Mansion. Everything was extremely quiet, so quiet that it made people feel uneasy. It was still half an hour before dawn, the darkness before dawn.

A small figure appeared in front of the gate of Lianju.

Hey, what's going on?

Qiqi stood in front of Lianju's door, looking at the tightly closed door in confusion.

The door of the Lotus Residence has always been open. Of course it is open, and no one would enter rashly. The Lotus Residence is the master's place of meditation. Disciples would not enter rashly without the master's summons. Who would seek punishment for no reason?

That’s not right. The master clearly told her yesterday to come to Lianju early this morning.

According to the master's habit, he got up very early. Qiqi thought that she should take the initiative to accept the punishment because she had done something wrong, so she got up an hour earlier and ran to take the initiative to accept the punishment.

I never expected that the door of Lianju was not open.

Strange, the door was still locked from the outside. Why? Is the master not in the Lotus Residence? Impossible, if the master went out, he would also inform the disciples in the sect. Could it be a secret mission, and only the eldest brother was informed?

Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief. That was great. The master was not at home, so she would not be punished. When the master came back from outside, he might have forgotten about her. She could escape. However, she was also a little disappointed. She thought about it all night yesterday and came to see the master early this morning. She told the master her identity and asked the master to help her find the whereabouts of the little mute.

Qiqi walked to the door, opened it a crack, and took a look inside.

His face changed immediately. Hey, what happened? The only passage from the gate to the Lotus Residence, the wooden floating bridge on the lake, was gone. This is too strange. Did something happen to the master last night? Hurry up and find the eldest brother.

Qiqi turned around and was about to run, but suddenly bumped into someone.

"what--"

Just as she uttered a word, someone covered her mouth. Damn it, this is in the Imperial Master's Mansion, who is so bold as to act wildly in their Imperial Master's Mansion? In the dim night, Qiqi opened her eyes wide and saw the person in front of her clearly.

Prince?

She didn't expect that the person who came was Prince Chenbei.

In the mountains, she took care of this damn prince for several days, so of course she recognized him at first sight.

The whole world belongs to the king. The prince went to the state master's mansion to visit the master. That was the way of the king and his subjects. Naturally, there was nothing unreasonable about it. But the prince was a man, and she was a woman. Holding her like this and covering her mouth was really infuriating.

(Our little Qiqi is so cute. She is now wearing men’s clothes and has changed her appearance. No one can recognize that she is a girl.)

Qiqi stretched out her hand and gestured.

Chen Bei looked at the clothes on the child and recognized him as a disciple from the Imperial Master's Mansion. A little disciple was wandering in front of the Lotus Residence so early in the morning. He should be a disciple on night duty.

"Don't scream, and I'll let you go."

Chen Bei waved his hand, and Qiqi saw a badge, which was the badge of the chief of the royal guards.

A dignified prince came with palace servants in the middle of the day, secretly visited the Imperial Master's Mansion in the dead of night, and even held a badge of the Chief of the Imperial Guard. What was this prince doing?

Qiqi snorted inwardly.

In fact, there is a reason why Chen Bei did this.

Chen Bei had never shown his true face to anyone. No one in the Imperial Master's Mansion knew him except his master and senior brother, so he was not afraid of being recognized today when he showed his true face. But in order to enter the Imperial Master's Mansion properly and not cause the disciples to stop him, he used the badge of the chief of the imperial guards. In this way, when the disciples of the Imperial Master's Mansion saw the badge, they would think that the king had summoned the Imperial Master for something and would not stop him or interrogate him.
