Chapter 412 Discovered
The moon was full in the west building. When the silvery moonlight fell on the glazed eaves of Fengming Hall, Wei Changtian, who had been thinking for a long time, finally opened his eyes.
Then he saw Ning Yuke kneeling at his feet.
My goodness, it turns out this guy has been kneeling here just now?
He sighed in his heart, but Wei Changtian had adapted a little this time and did not force Ning Yuke to get up or anything like that.
"What time is it now?"
"My Lord, it is already the end of the You hour."
Ning Yuke replied softly, "Prime Minister Gui and Master Shen have been gone for more than half an hour."
"oh."
Nodding, Wei Changtian glanced at the night outside the window, stood up and walked out of the hall: "Okay, then I'll go back too."
"Master, I will host a banquet for the envoys from Dali later."
Ning Yuke hurriedly got up from the ground, her body trembling slightly, probably because of kneeling just now.
However, she did not care about it. Instead, she took two quick steps to follow behind Wei Changtian, lowered her head and asked in a low voice:
"Won't you stay with us?"
"Um"
Wei Changtian hesitated for a moment and asked, "Master Shen, are you going?"
"I don't think he'll come."
"Then I won't go either."
When Wei Changtian heard that Shen Ran would not attend, he immediately lost interest: "Send someone to tell Master Shen to come to me when he has time. Tell him that I have something important to discuss with him."
"I understand."
Ning Yuke nodded slightly and followed Wei Changtian closely until she sent the latter out of the palace.
"Your Majesty, Prince Wei."
The young eunuch waiting outside the palace came up to him immediately and reminded him quietly, "It will be the evening of the 12th hour soon. The envoys from Dali are already waiting in Changchun Garden. I wonder if we can start the banquet on time?"
"Well, just start the banquet on time."
Ning Yuke nodded slightly and said to the young eunuch, "Prepare the carriage and send someone to take Master Wei back to the palace."
"No."
Turning back, Wei Changtian bowed to Ning Yuke and interrupted, "Your Majesty, I will go back on my own."
"good."
Ning Yuke's expression was calm, and she didn't say anything more: "Then Mr. Wei, please leave on your own."
"Yes, I'll take my leave."
“.”
From "master" to "commoner", from "slave" to "Your Majesty".
Wei Changtian and Ning Yuke are now very comfortable with switching between these identities, and basically have "two faces in front of and behind the public."
With such superb acting skills, even if others can see some clues, they will never be able to imagine what kind of "abnormal relationship" the two people have in private.
"His Majesty."
Watching Wei Changtian walking away, the young eunuch withdrew his gaze and asked, "Do you want to go back to Guangming Palace to change clothes?"
"No need, just go directly to Changchun Garden."
With her long sleeves rolled up, Ning Yuke had now completely regained her appearance as the empress.
Her long skirt swayed slightly as she walked towards a certain direction. The palace maids she met along the way all stopped and bowed their heads, and the guards all knelt on one knee.
As Ning Yuke's "kingship" lasted longer and longer, everyone in the palace came to accept this empress more and more, so most of their expressions now were very respectful.
Only Qingxian, who was following in the distance, had a meaningful look in his eyes.
Although she is Ning Yuke's "bodyguard", she is not always by her side.
Especially in the palace, Ning Yuke would only be by her side when she attended certain specific occasions.
Therefore, Qingxian was not in Fengming Palace just now. He only came over to check the situation after the "Purple Air Coming from the East" phenomenon appeared.
Then, she saw through the window Ning Yuke feeding Wei Changtian grass with her mouth.
If a normal person saw this kind of thing, he would probably be shocked.
Although Qingxian is not a "human", his initial mentality is the same.
But as time goes by, she seems to have a different emotion now.
Her red lips were slightly pursed, her eyebrows were raised, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on her face.
Qingxian's appearance is enough to make most men in the world crazy, even enough to reach the level of "knowing men above her".
However, the former quickly put away his smile and walked towards his residence.
The other side.
It was already the hour of Xu when Wei Changtian returned to the small house. By calculation, the "state banquet" at the palace should have already begun.
Xu Qingwan and Lu Jingyao have rarely eaten at home since the establishment of Ying Fengsheng. They are busy until late at night every day and today is no exception.
In addition, Yuan'er, Qiuyun, Li Suyue and others seldom wanted to eat at the main table, so recently the only two little girls, Achun and Agou, had accompanied Wei Changtian for "meals".
"Master! I broke through to the seventh level today!"
During the meal, Achun happily reported a good news.
From "Xunfu" to the seventh rank, a realm that most normal warriors cannot reach in their entire lives, Ah Chun achieved it in less than a year.
The reason she was able to achieve such speed was not only because she had an "innate Taoist body" with all sixty-four meridians open, but also because of the extremely abundant cultivation resources that played a very crucial role.
The heavenly internal skill "Gui Yuan Gong", a never-ending supply of top-grade demon spirit pills, various kinds of elixirs, and guidance from several "famous teachers" including Old Zhang. With these training conditions, tying up a dog probably wouldn't be too bad.
Well, that’s not appropriate.
After all, Agou, who now has the same resources, hasn’t even found the mansion.
Unlike Achun, Agou has all eight main meridians open and has the most basic conditions for cultivation.
However, only thirteen of her fifty-six secondary meridians were open, totaling only twenty-one.
Only 30% of the sixty-four meridians are open, which is already the lowest level of talent.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of warrior can only reach the seventh level at best. Even if Wei Changtian gives her plenty of resources, she can probably only barely break through to the sixth level. It all depends on luck.
And Achun, who is of the same age as her, would also be of the upper third grade.
Although the two little girls are almost as hardworking in their practice, the gap between people sometimes cannot be made up by acquired efforts.
As the saying goes - all roads lead to Rome, but some people are born in Rome.
“.”
"cough!"
With a dry cough, Wei Changtian swallowed the rice that almost choked him, and suppressed the "jealousy" in his heart. He said to Ah Chun calmly, "Not bad, just a little slower than when I was a teacher."
"Wow! Master is so awesome!"
Ah Chun's little face was full of admiration: "Master, you're already at the seventh rank when you're less than eight years old?"
“It’s natural.”
Wei Changtian pouted without feeling ashamed: "So you must not be arrogant, you need to continue to work hard."
"Yes, Master! Ah Chun will definitely work hard!"
Ah Chun nodded hurriedly, and then asked with some expectation: "Then what rank are you now, Master?"
"this."
Wei Changtian's expression froze. He quickly ate the remaining rice in the bowl and slammed the empty bowl on the table: "Go and serve another bowl of rice to the master!"
"Okay!"
Ah Chun was still young, and Wei Changtian distracted her attention without her noticing. She stopped asking the question and ran to get some rice with her empty bowl in her hand.
At this time, Wei Changtian also turned his gaze to Agou who was eating with his head down.
Although the latter didn't say anything and looked happy, I think he must be feeling bad.
Alas, my only relative is gone, and my cultivation is far behind others.
At such a young age, he has to bear pressure that he shouldn't have to bear at this age. If it were any other child, he would have given up on himself long ago.
However, Agou never showed any frustration in front of others.
From this perspective, it is strong enough.
After sighing a few words in his heart, Wei Changtian was just about to open his mouth to comfort Agou.
But at this moment, a person suddenly walked hurriedly outside the dining hall.
"Brother Chu."
Seeing Chu Xianping's expression, Wei Changtian's heart sank suddenly, and he quickly put down his chopsticks and went over to greet him.
"What's wrong?"
"Sir."
Chu Xianping bowed with a complicated expression, and then replied in a low voice: "The latest news has just been sent back from Dafeng."
“It’s a very bad situation.”
