"It would be strange if the young lady accepted it."
Jiang Yao chuckled softly, "Speaking of which, when you put this stone on His Highness, didn't he notice?"
“If we had discovered them, then none of what you see would be here.” Xiu smiled, pursing his lips.
"That's true. So how did you get it back?"
"..."
How did you get it back?
Xiu didn't know how to explain this to Jiang Yao.
But the images on the screen hadn't stopped; they were still playing, and Jiang Yao's attention was quickly drawn back to them.
Her eyes were fixed on the scene on the screen, her small face full of innocent beauty, making Xiu unable to help but keep turning back to look at her, the emotions hidden deep in his eyes.

It's infuriating! The solution she came up with after a whole night of work was so easily solved by Ming Beiya. There's just no way to deal with it.
"OK."
Ming Beiya raised an eyebrow and responded.
He looked very angry as he watched Mo Shisheng leave. It seemed he could only take it slow and try to change Mo Shisheng's opinion of him.
After Mo Shisheng left, as Ming Beiya was about to leave as well, Qi Muxiao and Nan Xiao exchanged a glance. The next second, Qi Muxiao spoke up and told Ming Beiya to stay.
Ming Beiya was naturally aware of the doubts in Qi Muxiao and Nan Xiao's hearts, but he did not intend to tell them.
After all, they are just human beings. If they knew that demons really exist in this world, they would probably feel panic.
But then he remembered that Mo Shisheng had been living in the Southern Kingdom before, so he stopped in his tracks.
When Qi Muxiao and Nan Xiao came forward, he slowly turned around and his gaze fell lightly on them.
"Imperial Advisor, you..."
"When did Ah Sheng first appear in the Southern Kingdom?"
Ming Beiya had no intention of reminiscing with them; instead, he went straight to the point and asked questions.
Looking at Ming Beiya up close again, Qi Muxiao felt a surge of emotions.
More than twenty years have passed. She has now become a noble concubine in the Southern Kingdom, with two sons and a daughter. Ming Beiya, on the other hand, is still as beautiful, aloof, and noble as when she first met him.
He seemed to have descended from the heavens, his body enveloped in a layer of cool, silvery light, making him seem untouchable.
His current silver hair is particularly stunning, but he remains an arrogant figure.
Qi Muxiao remained silent for a long time, while Ming Beiya frowned slightly, his eyes revealing impatience.
Seeing this, Qi Muxiao chuckled, "The Imperial Advisor is still as aloof as ever."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Ming Beiya pursed his lips slightly, thinking that if he waited a little longer and Qi Muxiao still did not answer, he would turn around and leave.
"After so long, doesn't the Imperial Advisor have anything to say?"
Seeing Ming Beiya's impatience, Qi Muxiao continued to ask other questions.
Hearing Qi Muxiao's question, Ming Beiya turned to leave, and then she said softly, "Shi Sheng appeared in the Imperial Garden two months ago. I was taking a walk there when I saw her under a tree, looking lost."
"..."
Ming Beiya roughly knew that Qi Muxiao was deliberately teasing him, but he still didn't get angry, since she was now answering his previous questions.
Ming Beiya didn't turn around, nor did he leave. Qi Muxiao knew that the only person in the world who could break all of Ming Beiya's exceptions was Mo Shisheng.
