Han Lingxi couldn't go out of her room, and the only thing she could do was practice her cultivation techniques when Baili Lingxiang wasn't around. Han Lingxi felt so bored she was practically turning into mold.
Han Lingxi was lying listlessly on the bed when she saw Baili Lingxiang change his clothes and say something while putting on his coat.
"Xi'er, I need to go to the palace. You stay in the room and don't run around."
Upon hearing that Baili Lingxiang was going to the palace, Han Lingxi instantly perked up, stood up with great enthusiasm, and looked at Baili Lingxiang with expectant eyes.
"I won't take you."
Baili Lingxiang casually splashed cold water on the situation, then turned to leave.
"Xi'er".
Baili Lingxiang said through gritted teeth, his face darkening.
"Xi'er".
Baili Lingxiang called Han Lingxi's name again.
Helpless, Baili Lingxiang looked down at his legs. Han Lingxi was clinging to his thigh like a koala, looking like she would never let go.
Left with no other option, Baili Lingxiang pulled Han Lingxi off his lap, held her in his arms, and warned her.
"Once you're in the palace, you're not allowed to wander around or leave my sight, or you'll never be able to leave your room again."
Han Lingxi quickly and obediently nodded.
Baili Lingxiang carried Han Lingxi into a carriage that looked ordinary on the outside but was very comfortable inside.
After getting into the car, Han Lingxi went wild, rolling around on the deerskin carpet while thinking with a pout, "Is this what they mean by not flaunting your wealth?"
Han Lingxi rolled around for a while, then jumped onto the table. She peeked at Baili Lingxiang, who was reading and not paying attention to her. She secretly licked the osmanthus cake on the table, closed her eyes, and showed a satisfied expression. Drinking milk all the time was really too painful.
Baili Lingxiang, who was standing to the side, revealed a faint smile that he himself did not notice.
The carriage soon arrived at the palace. Han Lingxi peeked out from Baili Lingxiang's arms, looking at the magnificent palace and staring at the graceful palace maids.
"Little perverted cat."
As Baili Lingxiang spoke, he covered Han Lingxi with his sleeve.
Han Lingxi scratched at herself for a long time before finally freeing herself. She looked at Baili Lingxiang with dissatisfaction. Even if she was lustful, she wouldn't look at palace maids. She only liked to look at handsome men.
Han Lingxi originally thought that Baili Lingxiang was going to the palace to meet the emperor, but she didn't expect that Baili Lingxiang went to the inner palace instead.
Baili Lingxiang walked all the way to the Empress Dowager's Yongshou Palace. Just as he was about to enter the main hall, he remembered that the Empress Dowager had never liked animals like cats and dogs, so he went to the side hall where he usually stayed overnight, put Han Lingxi in the room, and asked Han Lingxi to wait for him to return.
Han Lingxi, of course, would not obediently listen. She had been locked up for so long, and now that she had finally arrived at the palace, she naturally wanted to go out and have a look around.
Han Lingxi carefully jumped to the window and used her head to pry it open, thinking that she would just go out and play for a while and come back before Baili Lingxiang found out.
Han Lingxi ran all the way to the Imperial Garden, admiring the scenery. Sure enough, all sorts of precious flowers were there, and the artificial hills and streams were exquisitely crafted. Han Lingxi climbed a tree, enjoying the breeze and taking a nap. Perhaps because she had become a cat, she inevitably developed some feline habits, and before she knew it, Han Lingxi had fallen asleep.
Han Lingxi was woken up by a sharp noise under the tree. She was in a bad mood after being woken up, and when she looked down, she was surprised to see Su Shimin.
"You've got some nerve, daring to get my clothes dirty."
Su Shimin screamed.
