Upon hearing Mo Shisheng's words, Shangguan Murou suddenly widened her eyes, "Shangguan Yan, who are you trying to fool with these words at a time like this? The Imperial Advisor left before it got dark. You're just relying on the fact that the Imperial Advisor isn't here right now!"
"..."
Tsk.
Mo Shisheng was quite impatient. When Ming Beiya appeared at the Shangguan residence, she had already sensed his presence. She possessed a special ability that allowed her to distinguish people by their breathing, heart rate, the weight of their gait, and even their scent.
However, Mo Shisheng was not surprised by Shangguan Murou's persistent pursuit. After all, Shangguan Qi was like that, and the mother and daughter couldn't be much different.
"Ming Beiya! How long are you going to keep watching this show?"
Taking a deep breath, Mo Shisheng suddenly roared, startling everyone present who turned to look at her.
Even Qi Jingling's eyes flickered slightly, and when he looked at Mo Shisheng, his gaze held a deeper meaning.
"Master, Sister Shangguan seems angry. Are you going out?"
Seeing her master still leaning against the wall, unmoved and unperturbed, Zhuque silently lit a candle for him in her heart.
"Go, why wouldn't you go?"
With a faint smile on her lips, Ming Beiya slowly straightened up. After stepping over the wall that blocked everyone's view, her expression instantly turned cold, her beautiful face seemingly devoid of any emotion other than icy indifference.
Suzaku thought to herself, her expression changing in an instant!
Because Qi Jingling had left the palace, he brought many guards to stand watch in the front courtyard. A eunuch saw Ming Beiya, paused for a moment, then quickly reacted and called out in a high-pitched voice, "Grand Preceptor Da Ran—"
Upon hearing the eunuch's summons, everyone turned to look.
Today, Ming Beiya was dressed in a silver-white outfit, like the purest snow lotus on the snow-capped mountain. As he walked in, it seemed as if he was surrounded by a glowing light.
He had half of his long, dark hair tied up, with the rest languidly cascading down his back. A few stray strands fell from his temples. He had starry eyes, sword-like eyebrows, a high, straight nose, and lips as pink as cherry blossoms. He was breathtakingly beautiful.
Ming Beiya's gaze had been fixed on Mo Shisheng ever since he appeared, and he never looked away.
"Greetings, Your Excellency the Imperial Preceptor!"
Apart from Qi Jingling and Mo Shisheng, everyone, including the princes and princesses, bowed in greeting.
Ming Beiya's eyes held a hint of doting affection, as if he were oblivious to the worship of those around him, his gaze fixed on Mo Shisheng.
Seeing this, Mo Shisheng frowned deeply and glared at Ming Beiya without any politeness, her gaze carrying a hint of coldness.
Damn it! So many people are worshipping him, and he's still looking! What's he looking at!
Seemingly sensing Mo Shisheng's annoyance, Ming Beiya slowly withdrew his gaze and said softly, "Get up."
"Thank you, Master Imperial Master."
Ming Beiya slowly walked between Qi Jingling and Mo Shisheng, his gaze landing on the kneeling Shangguan Murou. "I hear you're looking for this Imperial Preceptor?"
“I…I am a woman…no…I am not…”
"You didn't consult the Imperial Advisor?"
When Shangguan Murou saw Ming Beiya, she was so frightened that she couldn't utter a complete sentence. Mo Shisheng scoffed, "Didn't I lie just now because the Imperial Advisor wasn't here? Now that the Imperial Advisor is here, why don't we ask him to be our witness?"
"you!"
Shangguan Murou's eyes widened suddenly. When she looked up, she met Mo Shisheng's eyes, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling. A chill ran down her spine.
It felt like a cold knife was right at his throat; Mo Shisheng's gaze was terrifying!
