Just as Shangguan Qi was frowning, wondering how to get back to the Shangguan residence, Zhuque, dressed in black with a long sword at her waist, slowly walked up to Shangguan Qi.
"Second Sister Shangguan".
"..."
When Shangguan Qi heard someone calling her, she slowly turned around. Zhu Que was handsome, no less so than the Fourth Prince Qi Yujin. His expression was cold and hard. "The Imperial Advisor has ordered me to escort Second Sister Shangguan back to her residence."
"The Imperial Advisor?"
A look of surprise flashed across Shangguan Qi's eyes. Ming Beiya's stunningly beautiful face was unforgettable, but his identity was a mystery in the Xuan Yun Continent. Although he was the dream of countless women, they all knew that Ming Beiya was not someone they could covet.
"yes."
Zhuque responded indifferently, and someone from the palace slowly led a carriage over. "Let's go."
"..."
Although Shangguan Qi still had many doubts, when her gaze fell upon Zhuque's cold and hard face, she finally obediently bit her lip and got into the carriage.
After Shangguan Qi boarded the carriage, she gently lifted the curtain, "Then... the Imperial Preceptor..."
"This is not the Imperial Advisor's carriage."
Zhuque immediately saw through what Shangguan Qi wanted to ask and said coldly, "Please, Second Sister Shangguan, sit down."
"OK……"
As soon as Shangguan Qi agreed, Zhuque raised her whip and lashed the horse's back hard. The horse neighed and galloped away in a cloud of dust.
Inside the carriage, Shangguan Qi lost his balance and slammed his back against the carriage.
Another luxurious carriage followed leisurely behind. Qingluan, driving the carriage, naturally heard Shangguan Qi's cry of pain.
Qingluan couldn't help but smile slightly, inwardly giving Zhuque a thumbs up.
She had disliked Shangguan Qi for a long time, and this was exactly what she deserved!
Inside the carriage, Ming Beiya closed his eyes, feigning sleep, his mind filled with the scene of Shangguan Xuan holding Mo Shisheng in his arms. Unbeknownst to him, his brows furrowed tightly, and a chill emanated from his body...

Zhuque drove the carriage extremely fast, overtaking Shangguan Xuan and his carriage just before they reached the Shangguan residence.
"Hoo..."
Uncle Lin pulled on the reins and slowly brought the carriage to a stop. "Young Master, another carriage has stopped in front of the Shangguan residence."
"Let's go down and take a look."
Shangguan Xuan slowly carried Mo Shisheng from the carriage, preparing to get down. Just as he was about to stand on the ground, his knee was suddenly hit by an unknown object. He lost his footing, and his grip on Mo Shisheng loosened slightly.
In the blink of an eye, Shangguan Xuan only felt a dark shadow flash before his eyes, and the person in his arms disappeared.
When he looked up, he saw that Ming Beiya was holding Mo Shisheng in his arms, his movements gentle, as if she were a precious treasure.
Shangguan Xuan frowned slightly, raised his hands in a gesture of respect towards Ming Beiya, and said, "Imperial Preceptor."
"You almost dropped her?" Ming Beiya nodded slightly, his lips parting slightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I was caught off guard. Thank you, Your Majesty. I will not trouble you any further now. Please..."
Shangguan Xuan then tried to take Mo Shisheng from Ming Beiya's arms, but Ming Beiya noticed his intention, his brows furrowed slightly, and he gently turned away from Shangguan Xuan's hand. "No need to bother, it wouldn't be good to wake her up."
With that, Ming Beiya carried Mo Shisheng directly into the Shangguan residence. The residence was brightly lit, and the people inside were waiting for their return.
