Hearing this, Sheng Wu raised her thin, crimson lips, her eyes deep and honest.

"As long as you don't want to, then there's no need. No one can really force your inner thoughts."

After a pause, Sheng Wu said meaningfully, "The reason they wear veils isn't because of their own shame or so-called chastity, but rather because of the prejudices and constraints of the world. A woman's beauty isn't an excuse for a man to make mistakes; it's just a specious excuse some people use to cover up their inner ugliness."

"A flower blooming beautifully by the roadside is ultimately more surprising than one in captivity. This is because it blooms freely, unrestrained, unregulated, and free from the meanings bestowed upon it by others. It lives for its own sake. But this is no reason for people to pick it at will."

"Even if the surroundings are muddy, flowers can still bloom freely. Your joyful wishes are beyond the reach of anyone."

Sheng Wu's expression was extremely solemn and serious, and every word he spoke was powerful.

The two stood under a marriage tree that was hung with red ribbons.

The crowd around was surging, and the willow branches were drooping. The words just now were like a bright light, dispelling the entanglement that Shen Yanshuang had been feeling for these days.

Yes, she is herself, and she doesn't want to be assimilated by this era and oppressed by feudalism.

And Sheng Wu's face was reflected in Chen Yanshuang's pupils, and her heart moved slightly.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

This man really gave her many surprises.

The two then strolled along the street.

And on a tall building not far away.

A figure stood silently, staring at the two of them with cold eyes.

To be precise, it is about the holy charm of a woman dressed as a man, who now has the image of a gentle gentleman.

Now, Pei Yuqing had more or less realized that Sheng Wu had always been trying to impress that widow Shen Yan, even going so far as to change her height and disguise her Adam's apple.

But what is the ultimate goal...

"master."

Soon, Mingyu came over, bent down and nodded.

Pei Yuqing's feminine and handsome profile paused slightly. He didn't turn around, but continued to stare at Sheng Wu's figure, his voice still.

"how."

Mingyu: "The Emperor has quickly left the palace after receiving the news that Miss Saint is still alive."

That’s right, Sheng Wu said that no matter what method he used, he must get Xiao Luochen out.

So, he just used the news that Sheng Wu was still alive.

This way, it is more useful.

Pei Yuqing pressed his thin lips into a straight line, "Xiao Luochen has no doubts?"

It came out so quickly.

Mingyu shook her head. "The Emperor...cares deeply about Miss Saint. As soon as he heard the news we gave him, he left the palace."

After a pause, he added.

"It was just a secret exit from the palace, with only a few secret guards, without alerting anyone in the palace."

Hearing this, Pei Yuqing's eyes darkened slightly, and his sinister dark pupils narrowed.

"Leave them to the surrounding area for now, wait for my news, and lead them to Sheng Wu."

Hearing this, Mingyu's rosy-lipped and white-teethed face hesitated.

"......master."

"If the Saint Girl is really discovered by the Emperor and is brought back to the palace, then she..."

There was some hesitation afterwards, but it was obvious that he was a little worried about Sheng Wu's future situation.

“Bang!”

Upon hearing this, Pei Yuqing immediately turned around and slapped Mingyu in the face.

"Why, are you deceived by her coquettish appearance?" His cold and gloomy eyes without any warmth shot directly at Mingyu, who had obvious slap marks on her face.

As if to see through his heart.

Mingyu's face was tilted to one side after being hit. Listening to his questioning, there was a hint of panic and embarrassment in Mingyu's eyes.

"Master, I don't have any!"

He immediately lowered his head and respectfully admitted his mistake to Pei Yuqing.

However, the hand inside the sleeve was tightly clenched with reluctance.

Seeing this, Pei Yuqing, who had been observing his expression, understood a little more. He had never expected that Sheng Wu was really capable and could even win the hearts of those around him.

He said directly and coldly, "Whether you have it or not, you'd better understand that this crazy woman is poisonous. If you touch her, you will be physically and mentally damaged. But if you are used by her and ruin things here, I will kill you too!"

As he spoke, Pei Yuqing directly picked up a handkerchief without any hesitation and wiped the hand that had just touched Mingyu's face very carefully and with disgust.

Hearing this, Mingyu's face turned ashen and tense, but he didn't say anything more, just nodded.

"yes!"

He thought that after spending so many days together, the master treated the Saint Girl differently.

She would be like herself, so beautiful and honest to Sheng Wu, seemingly vicious but also attractive. Unlike other gentle and soft women, she was somewhat moved.

But, no!

He was still so focused and even hated Sheng Wu!

"Back off."

"I'm leaving!"

Pei Yuqing looked at Mingyu coldly, without any concern for his subordinates.

She is indeed as cruel and merciless as Sheng Wu.

But then again, one is a villain and the other is a vicious female supporting role, how could they possibly have mercy?

It is a game between two demons. Anyone who looks at it from the perspective of the righteousness of the male and female protagonists is naive, just like Mingyu.

......

This way.

"Miss Shen, do you want to go see the lantern river?"

Hearing Sheng Wu's words, Chen Yanshuang suddenly looked up, reacted, and followed her gaze. She saw a group of girls releasing lanterns under the arch bridge not far away.

The various lanterns, mostly in the shape of rabbits, illuminate the entire river surface.
