Inside the palace, two figures stood in the middle. One of them, a woman wearing a dragon robe, was the new emperor of Da Chu - Xiang Yuxin.
Nangong Luoyu gently stroked Xiang Yuxin's face and asked with concern: "Is it hard to handle state affairs?"
Xiang Yuxin shook his head and smiled calmly, "It's not hard, Master. As long as I can do something for the people of Da Chu, I don't feel tired at all. But Master, did you go out to find that person smoothly this time?"
Nangong Luoyu smiled slightly and nodded: "Yes, I found it."
Hearing this, Xiang Yuxin's eyes lit up: "That's great! Master, where is he? Why didn't he come back with you?"
Nangong Luoyu sighed and answered helplessly: "He doesn't want to come back with me..."
When Xiang Yuxin heard this, her dissatisfaction surged up instantly, like a volcanic eruption. She widened her eyes, looked at the person in front of her in disbelief, and asked in a questioning tone: "Why doesn't he come back with Master? Doesn't he know how much you, Master, have sacrificed to find him? No, I'm going to send troops this time to bring him back to Master."
Nangong Luoyu gently pressed her shoulders, and said with a firm and gentle look: "Yu Xin, don't make trouble! You have just ascended the throne, you must not waste money and resources because of my affairs. Besides, I have my own way to solve this matter."
Hearing this, Xiang Yuxin's mood gradually calmed down, but her heart was still full of reluctance and doubt. She looked at Nangong Luoyu quietly, trying to understand her decision. After a while, she slowly said: "Master, why do you value that person so much? There are so many men in this world, why must he be the one?"
Nangong Luoyu sighed slightly, her eyes revealing a deep attachment and persistence. She said softly: "Yu Xin, he is different. Okay, I will go downstairs to rest first, and you should also take care of your health."
After saying that, she turned and left the hall, leaving Xiang Yuxin alone in deep thought. Seeing her master so obsessed with that man, Xiang Yuxin's curiosity grew stronger. However, she knew that now was not the time to ask further questions, so she could only watch Nangong Luoyu leave silently.
Nangong Luoyu returned to his bedroom, which looked like a closed world. The walls and desks in the room were covered with portraits, all of which depicted the same man. On the bed were some men's underwear, which exuded a unique scent.
Nangong Luoyu excitedly rushed to the bedside, and couldn't wait to bury her head in those clothes, greedily smelling their scent. The smell of male hormones rushed directly into her brain, making her feel intoxicated. She was intoxicated by it, as if she could feel the presence of the man.
Then, she picked up a piece of clothing and walked carefully to the portrait hanging on the wall. She gently stroked the man in the portrait, her eyes full of obsession and tenderness. Then she put her cheek against the face in the portrait, a happy smile on her face, and murmured to herself:
"Ning'er, we will be able to meet again soon. Don't worry, this time your aunt will never let you leave me again. We will be together forever and ever..."
Nangong Luoyu at this moment formed a sharp contrast with her previous image of a fairy in white, showing a completely different side. She was completely immersed in her thoughts about this man and couldn't extricate herself.
Back at the Xiao Mansion, Xiao Ning was kneeling on the floor in the room, and in front of him sat Xiyue, Qingge, Yunyao, and Xia Ling. At this moment, he lowered his head, but his eyes were restlessly floating up and down, and he knew very well that he would not be able to escape this time. After a long silence, Qingge finally spoke: "Ning'er, do you know that you are wrong?"
Xiao Ning quickly replied: "I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have sneaked out..."
"Will you dare to do it again next time?" Qing Ge continued to ask.
"I dare not, I dare not!" Xiao Ning shook his head repeatedly with a very sincere attitude.
Don't mention it, Xiao Ning's speed of admitting his mistake was really amazing. At this moment, he suddenly heard a sweet voice in his mind: "Master, the system upgrade is complete! You can receive the task now!"
Xiao Ning couldn't help but feel a little surprised. After so long, he almost forgot that there was such a thing as a system. So he responded: "Tongzi, you are resurrected? What's wrong with your voice?"
"Oh, the previous version was too low. Now it has been upgraded to system 3.0, and AI functions have been added. The system's image and sound can be changed at will according to the host's preferences." The system explained.
"Uh, okay..." Xiao Ning sighed helplessly, feeling a little depressed. At this moment, he felt his legs were starting to go numb, so he couldn't care about anything else. Just when he was feeling a little irritated, a system notification sound suddenly rang in his mind.
"Master, there is a new task. It has been automatically accepted for you. Please check it."
Xiao Ning immediately became alert when he heard this, and quickly opened the system interface to check the task details. It showed:
Task 1: Go to the emperor's bedroom in the Great Chu Palace to complete the sign-in and be rewarded with a top-grade magic weapon - the Lightning Bead.
“Subsequent tasks will be reviewed after the signing is completed.”
"Da Chu? That woman is in Da Chu. Didn't you upgrade the system? Can you help me find someone?"
"Yes, host. Please go ahead."
Hearing the system's affirmative answer, Xiao Ning was delighted and immediately told it Nangong Luoyu's name. Then, a burst of searching sounds rang out, and then rows of information appeared on the system panel.
Name: Nangong Luoyu.
Age: Unknown
