Women can act so convincingly. Bi Linglong's words were so sincere that Zu An truly believed them.
Little did he know that the other party was fishing, and immediately caught his true thoughts.
While Bi Linglong was fooling around, Zu An suddenly said with a strange expression, "Stop fooling around, she's really coming over."
"Who's coming?" Bi Linglong was taken aback, thinking it was just a delaying tactic.
Zu An said awkwardly, "The Empress Dowager has come, and she has brought Sang Qian and Zheng Dan with her."
Just now, his spirit wanted to dissuade the other side, but Liu Ning insisted on taking Zheng Dan and Sang Qian on a tour of the palace.
After all, Zheng Dan and Sang Qian had never been to the palace before and were not very familiar with it.
Seeing the expectant looks in Zheng Dan and Sang Qian's eyes, how could he bear to refuse? He could only let them have their way.
Who knew that Liu Ning, while leading the two women on a tour, would walk straight towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Liu Ning's reasoning was quite valid: the Hall of Mental Cultivation was the most important place in the entire palace, so she definitely had to bring them here to see it.
Bi Linglong: "???"
After staring at him for a few seconds to make sure he wasn't joking, Bi Linglong screamed and hurriedly tried to get off him.
However, her waist was tightly held by Zu An, and for a moment her struggles and twists seemed to be to entertain him.
"Let go!" Bi Linglong's voice was both sweet and shy. She was so smitten that she had no mood to be angry with him.
"Don't worry, it'll be a while before we get here." Zu'an looked at her with a smile, the empress's shy appearance was particularly attractive.
"How much further?" Bi Linglong finally breathed a sigh of relief, her waist slightly adjusting to accommodate her lover's movements.
"It's probably still about a hundred feet away." Zu An's brows relaxed slightly, and he had an expression of great enjoyment.
Bi Linglong: "???"
Listening to him, I originally thought it was far away, but it turned out to be only a hundred or so feet away. Isn't it almost time to arrive?
This was a huge shock, and she struggled violently again: "Put me down quickly, or I'll die if they see me!"
"Wait a minute!" Zu An took a deep breath. Her violent struggle was really dangerous. All sorts of unexpected events had happened throughout the night, and he was stuck in a limbo.
Now, he has finally achieved complete fulfillment.
Bi Linglong's pupils also momentarily lost focus. Startled by him, she trembled all over and could only cling tightly to her lover.
...
Meanwhile, Liu Ning led Sang Qian and Zheng Dan to the front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Sang Qian hesitated, "Sister Ning, this might not be a good idea. Brother Zu is cultivating, wouldn't we be disturbing him if we came over?"
Liu Ning rolled her eyes: "Silly girl, you actually believe he's cultivating? Never mind, you don't need to worry. His cultivation level is quite high now, so a little less cultivation won't have any impact."
"That's right, Qianqian, you don't need to worry. I also want to see what the Hall of Mental Cultivation looks like." Zheng Dan had already guessed a thing or two and was somewhat eager to stir up trouble.
"Well... alright then." Sang Qian's face was flushed as she looked at the brightly lit Hall of Mental Cultivation in the distance, her heart filled with curiosity as well.
It should be noted that this was the residence of the emperor in the past, and ordinary people would never have the opportunity to see it up close in their entire lives.
"Greetings, Empress Dowager!" Zhang Zitong noticed the three women and hurriedly came over to pay her respects. At the same time, she glanced at the other two out of the corner of her eye, a hint of amazement flashing in her eyes. Where did these beauties come from? Their temperament was completely different from that of the concubines in the palace.
"Oh, are you in charge of the palace guards now?" Liu Ning, who had been in the palace for many years, immediately recognized the other party's current duties.
"Yes, the Regent trusts me, and I will do my utmost to serve him until my dying breath," Zhang Zitong replied solemnly.
Liu Ning's gaze fell on her long, slender legs, and she thought to herself that the guy probably wasn't thinking about killing her.
She composed herself and then said:
“I’m taking two of the Regent’s friends to see him. Go and inform them.”
Zhang Zitong thought to herself that these two women were indeed related to the adult. Why were all the women around the adult so beautiful?
It's putting a lot of pressure on me.
"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, Her Majesty the Empress is currently in the Hall of Mental Cultivation."
She decided to give a reminder, saying that Princess Wu seemed to have been there before, and now the Empress Dowager had brought people in again; she didn't even want to think about what that scene would be like.
Sigh, why didn't the adults talk to me privately and let me know how to cover for him?
Liu Ning raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking to herself, "Just as I thought."
"It's alright, the Regent knows we're here."
"Then I'll go inform them." Just as Zhang Zitong was about to turn around, Zu An's voice came from the Hall of Mental Cultivation:
"Let them in."
"Yes!" Zhang Zitong was a little curious. Why did the adult's voice suddenly sound tired and weak?
However, she immediately dismissed the thought. What a joke! The adult is so powerful, invincible in the world. Who could possibly weaken him?
When Liu Ning and the other two entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, they saw Zu An sitting upright in the center, but they did not see Bi Linglong.
Liu Ning smiled and said, "The people outside just said Linglong is here too, but I haven't seen her."
“I’m here,” Bi Linglong said as she stepped out from behind the screen. “I accidentally spilled some tea and was cleaning it up when I realized the Empress Dowager was here too.”
"Tea?" Liu Ning looked at her usually fair and jade-like cheeks, which were now flushed, and thought that it was probably some other kind of water.
Sang Qian and Zheng Dan gazed at Bi Linglong. They had seen her from afar before, but seeing her now, they still marveled at her beauty.
And that noble air that emanates from within is something the two girls from ordinary families know they can't learn.
