Upon hearing his question, Bi Linglong's expression immediately became quite interesting: "Are you alright?"
If it weren't for the open space where the palace maids and eunuchs could see what the two were doing, she would have touched his forehead to see if he had a fever.
"I just want to know what your answer will be," Zuan said solemnly.
For a moment, Bi Linglong felt that something was wrong with how things were going today: "You and my father are both cultivation masters, why would you need anyone to save you if you fell into the water?"
“Assuming we have no cultivation and can’t swim, we’ll just drown if no one saves us,” Zuan added.
"Are you serious?" Bi Linglong stared into his eyes.
Zuan nodded: "Seriously."
Bi Linglong fell silent for a long time before answering, "Although I don't know why you would ask such a stupid question, I will still answer you. In that situation, I would save my father, because there are many women who need to save you, and it's not my turn."
Zuan: "..."
This woman is really something; this has made me feel guilty.
He had no choice but to ask in a different way: "If one day I take you to wander the world, would you be willing to elope with me?"
Bi Linglong was taken aback: "Why elope? The Emperor is no longer here, and no one in the capital can control us. When I become Empress, the whole country will be under our control, and no one can tell us what to do. Then we can live together as a couple, and who will dare to say a word?"
"Isn't it good to share the pinnacle of power in the capital? Why wander the Jianghu?"
Upon hearing her answer, Zuan fell silent, which was actually expected.
Bi Linglong was raised with the idea of revitalizing her family and reaching the pinnacle of power. She is a strong woman at heart and has an inexplicable fascination with power.
Now that she's only one step away from this dream, how could she possibly give up?
"What's wrong with you today? Why are you asking all these random questions?" Bi Linglong looked at him with some concern.
"Nothing, just asking." Zuan smiled. Some things already had answers, so there was no need to ask anymore.
"By the way, the trouble with Prince Jin should be over now. But could you please not be so impulsive in the future? Killing a prince in the street, I don't know where you got the guts." Bi Linglong glared at him fiercely, she was almost scared to death this time.
Zuan glanced at her chest and smiled: "I've always been quite daring."
For some unknown reason, Bi Linglong blushed and said, "Pah, vulgar."
She quickly composed herself: "By the way, this time someone must have been pushing and instigating Prince Jin to deal with you. Speaking of which, Prince Jin was used as a pawn without even realizing it, leaving only Princess Jin alone. She is a pitiful person, so please don't make things difficult for her."
Zuan: "..."
Am I such a vicious person?
"Of course I know you're not him, but when the Embroidered Robe Envoy is investigating Prince Jin, don't make things difficult for her."
“Alright.” Zu An was a little curious. Who was this Princess Consort of Jin? How could she get Bi Linglong to plead for her?
Their identities meant they couldn't spend too much time together in public, so after chatting for a while, Bi Linglong had to get up and leave.
Watching her departing figure, Zu An sighed softly and took out two storage bags from his bosom. These belonged to Old Man Mi and Wei Dan. According to the old servant of the Imperial Academy, the two were involved in the plot to murder the bloodline of the previous dynasty's royal family.
Zuan didn't completely believe him. Although what he said made sense, it was a matter of great importance, and he still needed to verify it.
Their personal storage bags must have contained their most important things; who knows if they contained records of what happened back then.
If the information obtained inside has nothing to do with Bi Qi from back then, then everyone will be happy. If it really is related, then it's not too late to make plans.
Unfortunately, the storage bag is protected by a restriction, making it virtually impossible to open by force.
The only hope lies in Moxi's skill "Farewell to the Southern Nest," but it requires certain conditions to activate, so it seems we need to level up Moxi first.
He turned and returned to the villa of Gold Medal Eleven in the palace. After confirming that no one was around, he summoned the keyboard system and calculated that the anger points he had accumulated during this period were actually quite high.
Just as I was about to draw the prize, a thought suddenly struck me.
He took out some copper coins and cast a divination for himself; the result indicated great fortune.
He couldn't help but laugh. After learning fortune telling, he could avoid bad luck when he participated in the lottery.
The lottery draw began, and the cursor spun rapidly across the keyboard.
I was used to the "Thank you for participating" message that appeared at the beginning, but who knew that the cursor would stop on the letter "L" in the first round.
Zuan was invigorated; he hadn't expected such a great start.
He stared intently, wondering what he had drawn this time.
A line of text appeared on the virtual screen in front of them: "Congratulations on drawing the skill 'Crossdressing Master'!"
Zuan: "???"
This name just sounds ominous.
Skill Description:
"Once upon a time, there was a handsome man with a strange quirk: he loved to dress up as a woman. At first, his disguise was crude, and he quickly became a pariah. But perseverance pays off. One day, he mastered the art of cross-dressing, and once he was a woman, no one could see through his disguise. Moreover, he became the most beautiful woman in the world, loved by countless men."
"He manipulated all the men in the world, until one day, he fell in love with a man, and that was the beginning of the tragedy..."
