"There aren't many threats left in this palace."
Bai Yanyan didn't ask much about the palace. Instead, she pointed inside the room and asked, "Do you know what's going on with the eldest princess?"
"I know."
He knew that he had originally thought that she would enter the palace openly during the day, so he told her about the eldest princess's situation, but he did not expect her to come at night. The prince thought for a moment and said, "Miss Bai, I asked Fengying to search the palace and the princess's mansion for what you are looking for, but he did not find it."
Bai Yanyan had asked him to find Danxin before.
He has been searching for it, but has not found it.
"Um."
Bai Yanyan was not surprised by this result. "Tomorrow I will accompany Nanyue to the palace to see the eldest princess. I hope you can help me arrange it."
Although, it would be okay without the prince's arrangement, she would not be polite if the prince came.
"good."
Xuanyuan Ye smiled gently, and the look in his eyes when he looked at her was even gentler.
His eyes flickered as he wanted to say something, but in the end he watched her leave with his own eyes.
"Prince, you deliberately dragged your injured body to the Princess Palace, why don't you explain it clearly to Miss Bai?" The guard beside him supported him. The prince followed the direction where Bai Yanyan left with his eyes, and curled the corners of his lips: "No hurry.
I’ll have the chance to tell her once I’ve secured this position.”
——
After coming out of the palace.
Chiyu originally wanted to take Bai Yanyan back to the Bai family.
"Chiyu, go back first. If dad wakes up, tell me immediately."
Chiyu: "??? Where are you going?"
Bai Yanyan: "I'm going to find Gu Yunzhou."
After letting Chiyu go back first, Bai Yanyan flew to Gu's house on her sword.
After meeting Gu Yunzhou in the palace on New Year's Eve, she never saw him again. She had promised him at that time that she would go home and wait for him until she was done with her work, but she was done with her work and could not leave.
Dad, uncle, aunt and others kept an eye on her. Even when she went out, her cousin followed her. And Bai Yixu, the grandson of her second grandfather, did not go home with his parents and stayed at Bai's house because he asked her to teach him how to make alchemy. Then when she wanted to go out, he would follow her to pay the bill and carry her things.
Even the reason she was able to sneak out to the palace tonight was because she got her father Si Fei and the others drunk!
It was the middle of the night, dark and windy.
A normal visit was definitely not possible, but she was not familiar with the Gu family and did not know Gu Yunzhou's yard. Fortunately, she brought the snow lion out before leaving.
Bai Yanyan landed steadily on the eaves of the Gu family and summoned the snow lion out.
"Little Shishi, you are the treasure of the Gu family. You grew up in the Gu family. You should know where Gu Yunzhou's courtyard is. Take me there."
The huge snow lion stared at her with narrowed eyes and stomped its paw in great pride.
You are dreaming!
I will never betray my master!
It’s impossible to even fight shit!
only--
The snow lion has gained weight.
These days at the Bai family, the Bai family's relatives thought it was Bai Yanyan's contracted beast, and it was white and fat and looked very cute, so they fed it a lot of food, causing it to swell again.
It stomped its claws and a big hole appeared in the eaves.
Immediately afterwards, the man and the snow lion fell down.
Bai Yanyan: "..."
Isn't there anything reliable and stable around her?!
"My former cool, noble and elegant Snow Lion has gone down the path of becoming fat and a scoundrel, and there's no turning back. Is this a moral decay or a collapse of human nature?
But why didn't it hurt when I fell? Could it be that because I'm bald, I've become stronger and don't feel the pain?"
Bai Yanyan slowly sat up.
The room was pitch black, and nothing could be seen clearly, not even the snow lion. Bai Yanyan felt around in her space ring and pulled out a night pearl as big as her head.
However, that light was swallowed by darkness.
Her night pearl no longer shines.
"Strange, why doesn't my night pearl light up? Could it be fake?"
Bai Yanyan muttered as she raised the night pearl high up, but a breathing sound was heard in the darkness, and then someone approached her in the darkness and hugged her, holding her in his arms and holding her tightly.
"who--"
“Gu Yunzhou…?”
Feeling the familiar feeling of being held tightly in someone's arms, Bai Yanyan softly asked, "Is it you?"
The man didn't say anything, but hugged her even tighter.
She couldn't see him in the darkness, but she could smell his breath and the strong smell of medicine on him. She frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you hurt?"
"Let me see your injuries."
As she spoke, she was about to touch his hand, thinking of taking his pulse, but when she reached out her hand, he held it tightly.
The hand was very cold, as if it was in an ice cellar, very cold. Bai Yanyan was stunned for a moment and wanted to hold it tighter, but he let go of her hand the next second, but held her hand again after a while.
This time, there was a piece of cloth between them.
The coldness of the hand was blocked by the cloth and could not be transmitted. Without him saying anything, Bai Yanyan knew from this small gesture that he must be Gu Yunzhou. Only this guy could be so attentive.
"Are you sleepy?"
Bai Yanyan briefly recounted what had happened over the past few days. The person behind her still didn't respond, but she didn't pay much attention. Instead, she yawned and said, "I've been busy all night, and I'm a little sleepy."
She moved, but the hands held her tightly, as if not wanting her to move.
Bai Yanyan rolled her eyes and said softly, "Honey, my legs are a little numb from sitting like this. Can you let go and let me change direction?"
The hand slowly loosened, she smiled and turned around, facing him, then put her arms around his neck, resting her head on his shoulder, then closed her eyes and fell asleep peacefully.
The sound of shallow breathing was heard.
The snow lion not far away was still in the posture of having fallen, with its limbs stretched out and its belly turned up, unable to turn over at all. Moreover, it did not dare to move, and its eyes could still see in the dark.
So it can see the scene in the room clearly.
This is not an ordinary room. Purple talismans are floating around, and even the ground is covered with purple talismans. All of those talismans are painted with spells to suppress demons.
The man was dressed in black, had a handsome face and purple eyes, black lines on his face, two black horns on his head, and a tail on his lower body.
A huge black dragon's tail almost occupied the entire room.
The aura emanating from his body almost suffocated the entire lion. Not only did it not dare to move, it didn't even dare to breathe.
But at this moment, his eyes were gentle and his movements were extremely gentle as he held the woman in his arms, as if he was holding a treasure. Then he slowly closed his eyes, and the black lines on his body faded away.
Outside the yard.
"Is the old man banging his head against the wall in pain? Should I go in and take a look?"
Gu Changtian squatted in the middle of the yard, holding a quilt in his arms. He listened to the loud bang and looked at the room with a worried look on his face.
"But when the ancestor transforms, he loses all consciousness. Anyone who gets close will be killed..."
