The mirror is just an illusion. Perhaps his purpose in seeking me out is to have me openly and legitimately take him to the Heavenly Court. Who would doubt someone brought back by the Emperor himself?
I recalled the original work. Although Xu took sides several times in the book, he ultimately stood on the side of the protagonist. However, he helped the male protagonist Liu Lieyu more than he helped me. Xu and Liu Lieyu may have known each other for a long time.
"My lord, I heard that Emperor You lost his temper with you? Do you think Emperor You will still trust you?" Luo asked calmly, seeing that I seemed to have figured things out.
I glared at Luo. "You do it again!"
Luo shook her head without glancing out the window and quietly looked out.
Feng Su looked at me and then at Luo, scratching his head, clearly puzzled.
I leaned back in my chair and looked out of the palace, just like Luo. You is so smart, he probably figured it out a long time ago. Does he really think I ordered it?
I tapped my head. How could I be so stupid? But then it dawned on me. It wasn't that I was stupid, it was that my opponents were too strong. They were figures who had lived for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. It was normal that I couldn't compete with them.
Thinking about it this way, I felt much better and ordered the fairy maids to bring out some pastries and snacks.
Feng Su and I comfortably leaned back in our chairs, eating snacks and watching the scenery outside the window, chatting occasionally. Luo quietly drank tea and read a book that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. It was truly a peaceful and idyllic time.
I glanced at the book in Luo's hand and couldn't help but marvel at how Luo's books seemed to appear everywhere. This scene was a stark contrast between a top student and a slacker. Just like how the top students in our dorm were always studying and preparing for exams, while we slackers were just coasting along, cramming at the last minute. I couldn't help but chuckle.
"Master, what are you thinking about? Why are you so happy?" Feng Su asked me while picking up a pastry from the table and popping it into her mouth.
I looked out the window and smiled. "It's nothing."
Ordinary, everyday life seems to be getting further and further away from me, like something from a past life.
When I woke up again, the sun was already setting. I got up and found a thin blanket covering me. Feng Su and Luo were nowhere to be seen.
"When did they leave?" I asked the little fairy beside me, turning my head slightly.
"Before the incense stick," the little fairy bowed and replied.
I nodded. "You, haven't you been here before?"
The little fairy shook her head. "Emperor You has never been here. The guards say he's been handling state affairs at the Taihui Palace."
I nodded to show I understood. Sigh, I really am like a housewife waiting for her husband to come home, hahaha, except I'm missing a child.
"Will you walk with me for a bit?" I said, glancing at the fairy maid beside me. The fairy maids beside me were often changed. I remember that General You suspected that there were people planted by Liu Lieyu among the people serving me, so he often changed them.
"May I have your name?"
"Palace maid Chang Xi."
I nodded and carefully examined Chang Xi. Sure enough, the ladies of Heaven were all true fairies, with beautiful names and beautiful faces.
"Let's go for a walk."
Chang Xi nodded in agreement and followed behind me.
Now that my relationship with You is stable, I'm going to talk to him today and tell him not to change the people around me anymore, otherwise I won't even know anyone, and I won't even remember their names when I call them.
I just offended him today, and I don't know if he'll agree. I also thought about the suspicion that I let Liu Lieyu go. But I quickly came to terms with it. If he doesn't agree today, I'll talk to him tomorrow. Anyway, I have plenty of time to slowly negotiate.
