The words Langcheng and mooncake instantly caught Gu Xueting's attention.

He had issued an order before that all news about Shen Yizi and Qing Bao should be classified as top-level intelligence.

It was precisely because he knew this that Gen Yi was able to find out the news about the second half of the palace banquet in such detail.

"Please make some arrangements with the Fifth Prince so that he doesn't find out too early."

After a while, the interest of those people in the palace in mooncakes will probably fade.

Gen Yi took the order and left.

The moon was hanging in the middle of the sky and it was already late.

Gu Xueting had no intention of sleeping or practicing, but instead left the house and walked quietly along the roofs of houses until he arrived at a small courtyard.

After landing, he walked through the formation in the yard with familiarity and saw the locked door at a glance.

There was a letter stuck on the door.

"Disciple Xue Ting, I'm going out to play for a while, so relax and you don't need to look for me. I'll be back once I've confirmed something. By the way, if Yizhi brings you anything delicious again, please leave a portion for me. Otherwise, I'll go to Yizhi and say bad things about you! Hehe~"

The signature is a very floating character “杳”.

Gu Xueting pressed his forehead. From this letter, it was not difficult to guess that this unreliable master had gone to find Zhizhi.

But what did he mean by confirming something? I had originally planned to come to him to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. Since he was not here, it would be strange if he would leave a copy of the things Zhizhi sent him.

He himself thinks it's not enough.

Gu Xueting knew very well that his master Luo Yaoyao was a naughty and willful person. If he went to Zhizhi, he might cause some trouble, so he had to tell Zhizhi.

After returning home, Gu Xueting went into the study, quickly painted a portrait of Luo Yaoyao, then took a photo with the photo stone and sent it to Shen Yizi.

Then I shot a video explaining the cause and effect.

"Zhizhi, Master is playful and has a child-like temperament. If he really comes looking for you, you should be more patient. Also, be careful that he doesn't kidnap Qingbao."

I sent the video, but didn't receive a reply for a long time. I guess Zhizhi must have fallen asleep by now.

Then, he wrote another letter, copying the information about Nian Nian's background, and also mentioned that people in the royal family had been eyeing her.

I wrote three pages in a very eloquent manner.

After finishing the letter, he went back to his private vault and put all the rare toys he had collected in the past few days into the storage bag.

Among them is the Nine-Light Fan mentioned by Pei Yuan.

The ground rat patted the storage bag hanging around its neck, rubbed Gu Xueting's leg, and then dived underground.

* Shen Yizi practiced for three hours last night, and only lay down when daybreak came.

When I woke up, Qingbao and Nian Nian were no longer in bed.

The children all wake up early and are probably playing in the yard or playing with their friends in the village.

She turned over lazily, still somewhat immersed in the afterglow of waking up.

At this moment, she felt like she was being watched, and when she opened her eyes, she saw the Rat squatting obediently beside the bed with a silly and cute expression.

"Hmm? You're back so soon?" Shen Yizhi picked it up and rubbed it.

The original ground rat was indeed not that fast, but after eating so many of her elixir pills, its strength must have been improved, and its speed naturally increased.

She took off the storage bag around its neck, took out the things inside, and spread them out on the bed. It looked gorgeous and shining at first glance, and it seemed that Gu Xueting had become a collector.

Cloth, clothes, shoes, jewelry, accessories...well, there is even a fan.

As a monk, the cold or heat of the outside world has little effect on her, and she basically doesn't need to use a fan in her daily life. But since it was a gift from him, she likes it very much.

The fan itself is very delicately made. The fan bones are made of agarwood and are finely carved. It is very light in the hand. When it is fanned, a cool breeze blows, bringing with it a faint fragrance.

It is the smell of agarwood that has been accumulated over the years.

Finally, she picked up the letter.

They communicate online every day, so why would he write to her?

Shen Yizi was a little confused.

Unfolding the letter, the first thing was Nian Nian's detailed life story. Gu Xueting had only given a rough account of it before, but this one was recorded in great detail, even including the details of how her brother was tortured by the Zhao family.

It can be called a family history.

The second thing was that she never expected that her mooncakes were actually brought to the palace banquet by the fifth prince and presented to the emperor.

After eating the mooncakes, the royal family members thought they tasted great and became interested in her as the maker of the mooncakes. They even wanted to find her and ask her to be a cook in the palace! What a magical turn of events!

She doesn't care, okay? The behavior of the ancient rulers is really domineering.

She was originally very happy because she made a small profit from the mooncakes, but now she is a little depressed. However, Gu Xueting has intervened, and by the time the fifth prince investigates her, the emperor will probably have forgotten about the mooncakes.

Even if the emperor still wanted her to work as a cook in the palace, she could just find a way to refuse. There were always many ways.

So she didn't take it to heart.

Shen Yizhi continued reading, and this time, he felt a little amused.

It is very likely that Gu Xueting’s master has come running over.

She quickly opened the photo stone, and when she saw the portrait of his master that Gu Xueting sent her, she was shocked.

Isn't this the old man who came into the village yesterday to perform puppet show? It seems that Gu Xueting was right. His master is just a willful and playful old naughty boy.

You said you would come, so you came. And you even did this cosplay thing. Are you planning to observe her secretly?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Although the one she was in love with was Gu Xueting, it can be seen between the lines that Gu Xueting's attitude towards his master was one of disdain mixed with intimacy, and it was obvious that his master held a very high position in his heart.

If his master was adamantly against their relationship and wanted to break them up, what would they do? Break up on the surface but still keep in touch with each other secretly?

It’s quite exciting to think about it.

I realized that my thoughts had wandered a bit too far, so I stopped immediately.

Shen Yizhi reviewed her performance in front of the old man yesterday and felt that it was quite good.

However, her good self-image suddenly died when she stood in front of the mirror.

Because she saw that she still had fake scars on her face.

Is it too late to take it off now? Gu Xueting's master wouldn't think she was ugly and unworthy of Gu Xueting, right? She didn't care what others thought of her, but when it came to the person she liked, she suddenly became concerned about gains and losses.

This is the trouble of women in love.
