Chapter 1 Chapter 1 You stinky woman... I'm going to kill you...

This was the first time Xie Tingyu felt absurd since the spirit possessed him.

At this moment, she and Ichiro were hiding in a narrow closet.

Xie Tingyu moved only slightly, and the golden sword pressed against her waist tightened three times. She said calmly, "It's not right for us to draw swords on our first meeting."

The young man's face flushed, his breathing became rapid, and he glared at her with anger in his eyes: "Shut up, you lecher."

This story has to start from half an hour ago.

The Yuan family of Runan sent out invitations to all the noble ladies and gentlemen of Jiankang to attend the flower banquet in Qingliang Mountain.

Xie Tingyu had only been back in the capital for two days and hadn't even left the house, so naturally no one knew she had returned. However, Chen Jun Xie's invitations were never missed, and this one was still delivered to her Changhaoyuan on time.

May had arrived, and the sweltering heat had soaked the clothes of the servants at the foot of the villa. Their hemp jackets clung to their backs, leaving behind traces of water.

A group of pretty young servants stood under the shade of a locust tree, next to them was an incense table with several incense balls hanging on it.

A carriage with red wheels and a canopy was seen approaching the villa. The carriage was over twenty feet long and seven feet wide, drawn by a snow-white horse. A crimson flag, embroidered in gold thread, was slanted from the horizontal bar at the rear.

Servant A glanced at the words on the flag and was stunned: "This... could this be the carriage of the Xie family of Chen County?"

Servant B, who was standing nearby, hurriedly pushed her and said, "What are you standing there for? Why don't you go and serve them?"

Slave A immediately stepped forward and grabbed the reins, while Slave B and C carried the horse stool and walked forward quickly, landing steadily next to the shaft.

The carriage curtain moved slightly, and first a strong servant of the Xie Mansion in indigo shorts jumped down. Then, he saw——

First, a pair of washed-out, pale Shifang shoes appeared, followed by half of the faded green Taoist robe's hem.

A servant quietly looked up.

A girl in a green wide-sleeved Taoist robe leaned out from the car.

A cyan Taoist robe? The Xie clan of Chenjun?

It seems that this is Xie Tingyu, the legitimate daughter of the Xie family, who traveled to Jiankang since childhood and practiced in Shangqing Temple.

Speaking of Xie Tingyu, her childhood anecdotes are still circulating in Jiankang City.

The most famous one is the first birthday party.

An unsuspecting kitchen helper mistakenly mixed poisonous mushrooms into the rice porridge. After eating only half a spoonful, the baby's lips and mouth turned purple and he began to twitch abnormally.

Fortunately, a girl named Wang who was attending the banquet happened to have a life-saving pill given by the late emperor. She immediately cut half of the pill and dissolved it in water before feeding the baby, thus saving the baby's life.

Counting back further, when she was three years old, she was playing in the pavilion when she inexplicably slipped through the railings and rolled down the slope into the deep pond. If it weren't for the servants who happened to be pruning the flowers and trees by the pond, the Xie family would have had to hold a funeral.

At the age of four, she was chasing butterflies in the courtyard when she was hit on the back by a tile. The doctor exclaimed in amazement, saying that if the tile had been half an inch off, she would have died instantly.

Let’s not talk about these life and death matters for now, let’s just talk about common illnesses, such as colds, high fever, convulsions and diarrhea. Madam Xie always suffers from these illnesses several times every year.

It can be said that living is not easy.

So much so that some people privately sighed: "If the second lady of the Xie family can live and grow up safely, it would be a miracle from our ancestors."

Growing up in such a difficult environment, Xie Tingyu was of course weak and sickly since childhood, unable to carry anything on his shoulders or lift anything with his hands.

When she was studying in a private school, those wealthy ladies even refused to lend her her notes because they thought she looked sick.

The Xie clan leader finally lost patience and spent a fortune to hire the Grand Master Zixu of the Shangqing sect. After three tosses of a coin, a very ominous omen appeared on the table.

Zixu Grand Tutor pinched the Tiangang Jue with three fingers, his knuckles moving rapidly across the abacus, muttering non-stop. His words implied that Xie Tingyu's birth date and time conflicted with Jiankang, and his soul was fragile, vulnerable to evil spirits. He feared he would be possessed by a lonely spirit, and that only by traveling far away could he grow up safely.

At this point, Grand Tutor Zixu took out a yin-yang fish jade pendant from his bosom, saying that this jade pendant could calm the soul and that it should be hung around Xie Tingyu's waist and not be taken away.

After hearing these words, no matter how reluctant the Xie family leader was, he could only pack up the luggage of Xie Tingyu, who was only six years old, with tears in his eyes.

While twisting the handkerchief in his hand into a twist, the master watched with tears in his eyes as Master Zixu carried the six-year-old Xie Tingyu on a big blue donkey and disappeared at the end of the mountain path.

This incident was widely known in the streets and alleys at that time, and people in the streets and alleys heard the saying "Xie's daughter is staying away to avoid disaster" and so on.

Thinking of this, Servant B hurried forward, raising his arm higher than the shaft of the sedan chair, with an attentive look as if saying, "Madam, please help me get off the carriage, and be careful of your step," for fear that Xie Tingyu would stumble and fall off the carriage.

When Xie Tingyu saw this group of people staring at him as if he were an ancestor, he was mentally prepared.

A young servant immediately stepped forward, holding a silver hollow sachet. He knelt on his knees, draped the sachet around Xie Tingyu's waist, and whispered, "The summer heat is scorching, and the villa is infested with mosquitoes and ants. This sachet contains borneol and calamus, which will repel insects and keep away filth. Madam Xie, please proceed slowly."

Xie Tingyu turned around and walked along the winding stone road. The sachet hanging around his waist and the yin-yang fish jade ring collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

The towering trees on the roadside blocked out the sun. For a moment, the only sounds were the chirping of insects and the nagging of Xie Tingyu's personal bodyguard.

"My Lord said you shouldn't tire yourself out, or I'll carry you over there."

Xie Tingyu pretended not to hear and didn't even raise his eyelids.

The guard's name was Cen Xiu. Because of his dignified appearance, robust physique, and ability to read and write since childhood, he had been promoted to personal guard by his master half a quarter of an hour before learning that Xie Tingyu was leaving for the flower viewing banquet.

It was her first time as a personal bodyguard, and Cen Xiu was very nervous.

"Young Master, are you thirsty? Do you want some water? I have a water bag here."

Cen Xiu touched the water bag hanging around her waist and shook it. It was very light. She suspected that she had forgotten to fill it with water because she was in a hurry to go out today.

She scratched her head awkwardly, then glanced and saw a hexagonal pavilion right in front of her. She said, "Young Master, there's a pavilion over there. How about we go there and rest for a while?"

Cen Xiu looked up at the scorching sun, glanced at Xie Tingyu's thin figure, and then thought of his master's countless instructions. He was worried that Xie Tingyu would faint from exhaustion on the way, so he kept talking like an old hen.

"Young Master, do you want to..."

"Do I look weak?"

Cen Xiu was stunned, shook his head, and after racking his brains for a long time, he stammered, "It's just... the sun is really scorching..."

Xie Tingyu glanced at Cen Xiu and said, "When I was at Shangqing Monastery, I had to walk from the temple on the mountain to the foot of the mountain to preach in the afternoons. It took three hours to go there and back. In my free time, I also had to chop wood, carry water, and cook." She patted Cen Xiu's shoulder and said earnestly, "Just treat me like an ordinary person, okay? I'm not as bad as you think."

Not a single word here is true.

When she had not yet truly become "Xie Tingyu" and was just a wandering ghost following this little Taoist priest, she watched the little Taoist priest chanting scriptures and meditating from morning to night, and riding an old and skinny donkey when he went down the mountain.

"Young Master, I am merely worried. Before we set out, the Lord said..."

Xie Tingyu sighed to himself that if Cen Xiu followed him like this, his ears would probably get calluses. He interrupted immediately, "I'm thirsty. I just passed by a clear spring at the foot of the west mountain. Go and get some water. I'll wait for you at the banquet."

They were currently in the East Garden, but the place Xie Tingyu pointed to was on the west side, and the round trip would take at least half an hour. Xie Tingyu thought that being able to have a moment of peace and quiet was a blessing.

Cen Xiu immediately took the order and left.

Xie Tingyu wandered around and found a rock on a rockery with its back against a mossy stone wall.

When I came to a corner and was about to turn it, I moved my ears slightly and vaguely heard someone talking there.

Out of curiosity, Xie Tingyu leaned over slightly to look. Because the area was blocked by rocks and vines, he could only vaguely see one person with his hands behind his back and another bowing his head to listen to orders.

"The banquet hasn't started yet... Has that Imperial Highness arrived yet?"

"I've already made all the arrangements... Everything is ready... I've specially placed a scented sachet for the Emperor that's only effective on men... We're just waiting for the east wind..."

"When you lead Wang over, be careful not to let anyone else see us." The man paused. "Right now, Mother is out with the Grand Tutor dealing with the refugee issue. I must not let Mother know that I took advantage of the banquet to attack Ms. Wang."

Another person replied, "Don't worry, my lady."

"If this is accomplished, even though Wang's daughter will lose her position in the Sirong Mansion and will never be able to enter the court again, she will have gained a peerless beauty for free. It's not a huge loss for her."

There was no more conversation. They walked away quietly, one after the other, and disappeared behind the trees.

Xie Tingyu walked out from behind the rockery, forgetting their conversation. She had come to the banquet today to drink and relax, and didn't want to pay too much attention to these dirty calculations.

Walking down the corridor, two lines of attendants passed by Xie Tingyu, one carrying carved food boxes, the other carrying two jugs of freshly brewed fruit wine on trays.

"Hey? Wait a minute."

The attendant walking at the end suddenly felt his sleeves tightened. He turned around and saw a noble lady he had never seen before.

This person was gaunt, yet tall and straight like a pine tree. Her azure Taoist robes made her look like a bamboo amidst the snow. Her face, though a bit pale and sickly, couldn't conceal her rich features. Especially her affectionate, peach-shaped eyes, their gentle gaze seemed to hold water.

The attendant bowed and asked, "I wonder why the lady called me?"

"What kind of wine are you holding? Let me taste it."

The attendant placed the tray on the stone railing beside the corridor, rolled up his sleeves, poured out a cup and handed it to Xie Tingyu, "This is freshly brewed green plum wine."

Xie Tingyu drank a cup, feeling only the refreshing sweetness in her throat. She pointed to another pot.

The attendant immediately understood and poured another cup, "This is lotus wine."

When he handed it over, he accidentally touched Xie Tingyu's fingertips, his hand trembled, and the wine spilled onto the front of Xie Tingyu's Taoist robe.

The servant was horrified and was about to kneel down to beg for mercy, but he saw that the lady didn't care much and leaned over to drink the whole glass of wine from his hand.

He opened his almond-shaped eyes slightly, pursed his lips, not knowing what to say. He just stared blankly at her as she poured him cup after cup, until both pots were empty. Suddenly, he heard her mutter softly, "I'm feeling a little dizzy. Back then, I drank three jars of pepper wine at the border and walked just fine. This body is really..." The last part of her voice faded away.

Xie Tingyu blinked, and his old problem came back again.

She grabbed the attendant's wrist, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the throbbing blood vessels in his wrist. "You must compensate me for the dirty clothes. And prepare some hangover soup. Take me to find a place to lie down." A faint smell of alcohol lingered between her lips. "Lead the way."

It is common for distinguished guests to get their clothes soiled and become drunk and unconscious, so naturally, spare clothes and sobering medicine are always available.

The attendant led Xie Tingyu through the corridor and came to a courtyard where bamboo curtains were rolled up on all sides and the doors were wide open.

At that time, the banquet was being prepared and the servants were busy in the front yard. There was no one here.

After drinking the sobering soup, Xie Tingyu took off his Taoist robe, changed into a pomegranate-patterned silk dress, and strolled around the courtyard to sober up. He saw that all the doors and windows were open except for one door, which was ajar.

Xie Tingyu pushed the door open and walked in.

A screen with ink painting is placed diagonally at the entrance.

She sidestepped around the screen, still obstructed by layers of gauze. She pushed aside the last layer of veil, revealing a low ebony couch set low to the floor, barely a hand's height above the ground. A pair of cloud-patterned shoes rested on the footrest in front of the couch. A dark tunic, embroidered with blooming peonies, lay casually on the couch.

Xie Tingyu's eyes inadvertently moved upwards and she saw a man leaning against a brocade pillow, looking at her in surprise.

Both of them took a breath, and silence spread between them.

Xie Tingyu lived two lives and had seen countless beauties, but this one was truly stunning.

Words alone cannot describe it.

At this moment, the only thing that came to Xie Tingyu's mind was that in late spring of that year, on Qingya Mountain, she rode out on horseback, passed by a cliff, and happened to come across a wild peony growing in the crevice of the rock.

The flower was bright red, with morning dew still condensed on its petals, and it trembled but did not break in the cold mountain wind.

The bright red mole in the middle of the man's lower lip was just like the dewdrops that were about to fall from the peony petals that day.

Just as Xie Tingyu was still admiring it——

I just don't know why the beauty on the bed went from being shocked to being furious?

I just don't know why the beauty on the bed has her clothes untied, and her collarbone and neck are flushed?

But I don’t know why the beauty on the bed suddenly stood up and rushed towards me with a golden knife?

...Huh? She didn't do anything?! Is it wrong to admire beauty?

Xie Tingyu bent sideways to avoid the attack and circled around the round table with the beauty.

The beauty became even more angry, waving the dagger in her hand and gritting her teeth, saying, "You stinky woman... I'm going to kill you..."

Xie Tingyu turned around and looked at him: "Ah? I bathed and burned incense before coming to the banquet, how could I smell?"

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps coming from far away.

Listen to the sounds, at least three.

Judging from the movements, they are heading towards this room.

Xie Tingyu suddenly recalled the conversation between the two people.

"...the sachet contains something that only works on men..."

“…lead the Wang family daughter over there…”

“…lost his position at Sirong Mansion…”

Xie Tingyu's mind was filled with alarm. Perhaps someone was using this prince as a pretext to cause a certain noblewoman to lose her official position, and she had accidentally gotten herself into this scheme.

She walked around the table together, thinking about how to get out of the situation.

The bed is too low to hide anyone.

The window faces the pond, and if you jump out of the window you will fall into the water.

Xie Tingyu glanced at the rosewood wardrobe in the corner.

The cabinet door is half-open, and the space inside is just right, making it very suitable for temporary concealment.

Taking advantage of the beauty's unpreparedness, she grabbed the wrist holding the dagger with one hand, picked up the coat and shoes on the ground with the other hand, and then put her arms around his slender waist.

The beauty was stunned, and then heard a snap.

The two of them had hidden in the closet.

The next novel is "Three Treasures in One Birth, But Long Ao Tiansheng"

【Female Master and Male Apprentice】

Bking type max level boss heroine/complaining heroine/heroine talks nonsense/whether it is love or fighting, the heroine takes the lead/BG

My name is Chu Zhijiao, and I am the best swordsman in the world.

One day, I found a man. He was a fair-skinned, handsome young man with long legs, a nice butt, broad shoulders and a narrow waist.

He was seriously injured. He just tilted his head back, looked at me with clear eyes, and said in a very low, bubbly voice, "Did you save me?"

Who could resist this? So I slept with him.

After we slept together, we became master and apprentice, I was the master and he was the apprentice.

Later, I accidentally made a big mistake and was wanted by the entire cultivation world. My disciple died to protect me.

The day after he died, time went back to the first day I picked him up.

He just tilted his head, looking at me with clear eyes, still speaking in that ultra-low bubbling voice, "Did you save me?" Me:?

Such a familiar plot.

So I put him to sleep again.

To confirm my guess, I stabbed him to death myself.

Time goes back to the first day I picked him up.

Oh my God, a human-shaped time-reversal artifact!

The fifth time I had to kill him to rewind my game due to constant trouble, he grabbed my sword and said, "Don't kill me. Every time you kill me, you have to sleep with me. Are you still human?"

Me: "No, you do have memories! Then you always pretend to be meeting me for the first time. Sorry, I have to kill you again this time."

He: "I'm pregnant with your child, how could you have the heart to do this to me?"

I:?
