Garan turned his head to look at the person on the bed with a puzzled expression.
"What's wrong?".
Ning Qing glanced at her feet.
"I haven't washed my feet yet."
Jialan put down the copper basin in his hand and chuckled softly.
"My bad, I completely forgot about it. I'll wash your feet right now."
He bent down and helped the person on the bed sit up.
He crouched down and put Ning Qing's feet into the water.
They began to wash gently.
Just then, a slight sound came from the window.
Garan heard that familiar sound.
His eyes sharpened; he knew he couldn't stay here any longer, he had already wasted too much time.
Since the decision has been made, we won't involve the adults.
Without the adult's jade token, the second option had to be activated.
Jialan quickened her movements, but her actions remained incredibly gentle.
Quickly wash Ning's feet, dry them, and gently place them on the bed.
After Ning Qing covered her with the blanket, he leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"My lord, I have to go out for a while now. You should go to sleep quietly."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Ning Qing watched his receding figure.
He silently instructed the system in his mind: "Little cat, keep an eye on him for me."
The system immediately replied: Don't worry, host.
He held a jade pendant in his hand, lost in thought.
My wife has been sneaking peeks at this jade pendant several times today. This jade pendant is a symbol of the Imperial Advisor's status.
Besides being free, besides the palace, one can also...
Ning Qing placed the jade pendant under her pillow and slowly closed her eyes.
After a while, Ning Qing opened her eyes and sat up in bed.
"No, I can't sleep. I'm going for a walk."
He got out of bed, walked to the wardrobe, and opened it.
Choose a set of black robes from them, and then find a black hairband.
Only then did he slowly and methodically put on his clothes.
After getting dressed, Ning Qing looked at the clothes she was wearing.
He pulled a black cloth over his face, leaving only his clear eyes visible.
He nodded in satisfaction: This is the essential gear for murder and robbery.
The system looked at Ning Qing's troublemaking outfit: Host, what are you doing?
Ning Qing shrugged: Can't sleep? Go for a walk!
The system silently replied in its mind: I don't believe you for a second. Wearing that outfit and with a black cloth covering your face, you're clearly going out to cause trouble.
Ning Qing leaped out of the window and quickly darted towards the wall.
Upon arriving at the palace, Ning Qing went to a place where the defenses were relatively weak.
Under the cover of darkness, they easily leaped over the high palace walls and entered the palace.
Don't ask her why she has a jade pendant and doesn't enter the palace openly.
There are records of everyone entering and leaving the palace.
What did my wife do in the palace tonight?
Upon checking the records of his entry into the palace, it was easy to connect the dots and implicate his wife.
Moreover, leaping over the palace walls and evading patrolling soldiers was an easy task for Ning Qing.
Moreover, he wanted to sneak in quietly to see what his wife was up to.
Isn't that more interesting?
Ning Qing: System, where is my wife?
System: Sorry, host...
Ning Qing: Stop giving me nonsense and just give me the address.
The system looked troubled in the space: Host, it's not that I'm unwilling, it's that I can't...
Ning Qing: If you tell me your location, what will you do?
System: Punished.
