[Ding Dong~ Identity card quest progress 50%, character 'Jiang Qiao' has become a shining star, but... it's fleeting. Please let more people remember you~ Player **, keep up the good work!]
The moment the Third Prince Shi Yubai accepted the task, Jiang Qiao heard the cold voice of the system's report in his mind.
Jiang Qiao was puzzled. She had already proposed to establish female officials and was ready to implement it. What a great thing! Wasn't it dazzling enough?
The task was only half completed, what else was she supposed to do?
…
The banquet was over and the people in the hall gradually dispersed.
The people who left were in groups of two or three, all discussing the proposal made by the daughter of the Jiang family tonight to appoint female officials.
"Qiao Qiao, you are so brave. Why didn't you discuss this with our parents? I was scared to death. Fortunately, the emperor was merciful and didn't punish you." Ji Muhe came forward and held Jiang Qiao's arm, with some worry on her face.
Ji Yan also said, "You were indeed a bit reckless today, but... you do have some of the integrity of our Ji family."
"I understand, mother, aunt, I'm going to meet a friend. We'll meet at the city gate later..."
Jiang Qiao caught a glimpse of the man's figure not far away, said a few perfunctory words and chased after him.
Under the moonlight, the walls of the palace sparkled with silvery-white light. As the night wind blew, the flags in the palace fluttered slowly, making rustling sounds.
Fu Yanci walked alone into the darkness.
"Master Imperial Master, wait a minute." Jiang Qiao finally caught up.
Fu Yanci heard the familiar voice, stopped and looked back at her.
Jiang Qiao's hair was a little messy, covering her eyes uncontrollably. She used her hands to push it away, looking a little funny, as if she was not the one who had made such ambitious statements in the hall just now.
"Miss Jiang, what's the matter?"
Fu Yanci is always so distant and always alone.
Jiang Qiao narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of allure, "Master Imperial Master, were you speaking up for me in the hall just now?"
"Miss Jiang, you're overthinking it." Fu Yanci answered calmly.
Jiang Qiao took a step closer, their lapels almost touching. She looked up at Fu Yanci's eyes and saw her slightly flushed cheeks through his pupils. "Really?"
Fu Yanci didn't expect her to do such a bold thing. His pupils trembled slightly. He looked at the face so close to him, his throat tightened, and his body felt a little hot.
Jiang Qiao didn't get angry even though he didn't get a response. Instead, he laughed out loud.
"Oh~ Your Excellency, the Imperial Master is truly very reserved. Even in the presence of such beauty, I cannot let your mind wander in the slightest. Forget it, I will not disturb you. I will go back and rest."
Jiang Qiao took a step back to create some distance, and was about to turn and leave when the man grabbed his arm.
Fu Yanci quickly let her go and asked, "Where are you going?"
Jiang Qiao grabbed his hand, a hint of sadness in his eyes, "We're going to a very scary place. Master Imperial Master, do you want to come with me?"
Because of his weak body, Fu Yanci's hands were very cold, even colder than Jiang Qiao's.
For a moment, Fu Yanci didn't know what to do. He looked at the destined person in front of him in a daze.
[Ding Dong~ Congratulations to the host for reaching a strategy value of 36%. I hope the host will continue to work hard. Kiss~]
Jiang Qiao assumed that he agreed to accompany her and pulled him in another direction.
This road was even darker, strangely eerie.
Fu Yanci has been in the palace for many years, and he knows that the end of this road is the cold palace.
He didn't understand why Jiang Qiao wanted to go there, but he still let her hold his hand.
The path was strangely quiet, and finally they came to a dilapidated yard overgrown with weeds. In the moonlight, Fu Yanci saw a dry well in the middle of the yard.
When he saw the well, Fu Yanci suddenly remembered the first time he had fortune-told for Jiang Qiao.
Her end was to die in a dry well...
Is it a coincidence?
Jiang Qiao let go of his hand, walked straight to the dry well, and looked inside. The well mouth was very small and pitch black, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
But she knew that there was resentment everywhere...
Jiang Qiao was worried that Fu Yanci might notice something, so she pretended to be relaxed. "Few people come here, and there are always ghost stories circulating in the palace. I don't know if they are true or not. I'm really curious, sir, do you think... there are really ghosts here?"
Fu Yanci looked at her, dressed in white, her hair blown by the wind, standing in front of the well, with a hint of sadness in her eyes. In a trance, he really couldn't tell whether the person in front of him was real...
"have no idea."
Jiang Qiao walked over and took his hand again and walked out, "Let's go, I don't think there are any ghosts here. It seems that the rumors are not credible. It's really boring."
She came here today just to see the well and familiarize herself with its location. After all, she would bring someone else with her next time...
As I was walking back along the same road, I saw Jiang Anran not far away.
At this time, Jiang Qiao was holding Fu Yanci's hand, and it was too late to let go. Jiang Anran ran over with an anxious look on his face.
Jiang Anran looked at the two people holding hands, and the worry on her face almost broke.
She covered her mouth in shock, "Sister, you...Master Imperial Master..."
Jiang Qiao calmly let go of Fu Yanci's hand and asked her, "Why are you here? Didn't you leave the palace with your father?"
Jiang Anran: ...ˉ\_(ツ)_/ˉNo, you even questioned me!
"I saw that my sister hadn't come out yet, and I was really worried, so I thought of coming back to look for her, but I didn't expect to run into her..." Jiang Anran said this and tentatively glanced at Fu Yanci behind Jiang Qiao, "But don't worry, sister, I will definitely not tell uncle."
He is the powerful Imperial Master, how dare Jiang Qiao!
Jiang Qiao sneered, "So you will tell everyone except my father?"
