In Qing Wu's memory, Xiao Chenyan had a fiery temper when he was young. He had the lofty ambitions of a young man, but also a stubborn temper that made people grit their teeth. He loved to play tricks on others, especially on her.
When Xiao Chenyan returns to the world and meets him again, he has become an ink ingot that has been chiseled and hammered thousands of times. His thoughts are hidden under his skin. He is a sword and a lone wolf.
When she heard the teasing voice of "Sister Princess", she almost thought that time was confused and it was the younger Xiao Chenyan standing in front of her.
Otherwise, how could he be such a dog?
The wetness on his body seemed to have spread to her. Qing Wu felt as if her heart was also wet. She leaned against the screen and subconsciously took a step back, almost knocking the screen over.
He raised his hand to steady the screen, like he was building a wall behind her that she could not retreat from.
She stood stiffly, with a short distance between them, but she could feel his presence invading every corner of her body, brutal and unreasonable.
"You can really scream..." She clenched her teeth.
He lowered his eyes and looked at her cheeks which were puffed up by her teeth.
"Princess, don't you want me to call you sister again?"
"I want to!" Qing Wu raised her head angrily, "If you don't mind being embarrassed, just keep calling me like that~"
It's not like she can't bear it anyway.
"Mischievous."
A low laugh sounded above her head, and Qing Wu was surprised to hear some words of pampering, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.
"Are you sure you want to stay with me like this?"
"ah?"
Xiao Chenyan naturally tucked her hair behind her ears and sighed, "I'm going to change my clothes."
Qing Wu came to her senses and was about to leave, but his arm, which was supporting the screen, was blocking her view. She didn't think much about it and subconsciously bent over to move forward. After he ran out of the door and politely closed it, she finally reacted.
"Why am I so obedient?"
Judge's Pen: "The way you crouched and retreated just now really looked like a thief who was caught in the act of committing a crime and failed to escape. How cowardly."
Qing Wu stared at the door angrily: "I made a mistake. I fell into his trap."
The word "sister" made her lose herself, what a damn stinky brother.
A moment later, Xiao Chenyan pushed the door open. The man had long arms and legs, and he looked very good in a guard's uniform.
Qing Wu stared at him intently with a bad look in her eyes, "After you learned this illusion, you can use it quite easily."
"I'm only familiar with the basics, not as good as..." Xiao Chenyan glanced at her, and the corners of his lips curled slightly: "Sister Princess."
Qing Wu shivered suddenly and her ears felt numb.
What a sin. The word "sister" coming out of Xiao Chenyan's mouth sounded so awkward. She always felt that this guy was going to use a big move against her.
Qing Wu snorted: "Now that you have returned secretly, what are you going to do?"
"I need to go to the East Palace." Xiao Chenyan said frankly, "The prince is still unconscious. Huang Mier made a big splash in the East Palace yesterday. How about asking her to draw a peace amulet for the prince?"
"You want the prince to wake up?" Qing Wu's eyes rolled, "Or are you planning to use the excuse of delivering the talisman as an excuse to go to the East Palace and steal?"
Xiao Chenyan smiled and said, "Both."
"The amulet is simple, but are you sure you want to wake him up by force?" Qing Wu curled her lips: "Although the thunder didn't strike him, he was definitely frightened, and with the backlash, he won't live for many days. If we wake him up by force now, he will die faster."
"It's okay," Xiao Chenyan's eyes were calm, "I just happened to have something I wanted to confirm."
"Okay." Qing Wu agreed, "No need for a wasp, I'll write this talisman for you."
After writing the amulet, Qing Wu handed it to him.
Xiao Chenyan looked at the talisman she handed over, his eyes moved slightly, and he took it as usual.
"Your strength hasn't fully recovered yet?"
"It will be soon." Qing Wu snorted: "In ten days at most, I will be able to refine the soul-replenishing needle."
The topic ended here, and Xiao Chenyan left with the amulet.
Qing Wu watched his figure disappear, turned the judge's pen in her hand, the smile on her face disappeared, and a sharp look appeared in her eyes.
Judge Pen wondered, "Awu, is the talisman you just gave me wrong?"
Qing Wu hummed calmly: "I added something else."
"Why do I feel like you were just pretending to be nervous when you were in front of the inkstone? Are you plotting against him again?"
The judge's pen muttered quietly, this bad ghost has always been cunning, it has been with her for so long, and it often feels that it is not smart enough and out of place.
"How can you say it's a calculation? When he made the deal with me, we agreed to be honest with each other. This stinky inkstone has hidden so many little secrets from me, I have to dig some out."
Qing Wu said in a sad tone, "He was taken to be beaten with a stick yesterday, but he escaped by using an illusion."
"What's wrong with that?" Judge Bi was puzzled. "Hasn't Yantai always been a quick learner? When you taught him the art of shrinking the earth into an inch in Nanling, he learned it after just one listen."
"The problem is not how fast he learns..." Qing Wu twisted a strand of hair with her fingertips, frowned and said faintly: "The problem is that what I taught him was not an illusion at all..."
Judge Bi was shocked, "If it's not an illusion? Then what is it?"
"It's just some random incantation. Otherwise, why would I let him wear a mask?" Qing Wu sneered, "I never taught him how to do it, but he can do it. I can only say that he already knows how to do it from these sorcerers."
"Either he has forgotten, but his body and soul remember, or..."
Qing Wu didn't continue talking, either because there was something in Xiao Chenyan's body teaching him.
Qing Wu couldn’t tell whether Xiao Chenyan had noticed anything at the moment, so she had to wait and see before taking any action.
After pondering for a moment, she turned her head and said, "Let's go to Nanling and see what the situation is with the substitute he left there."
A pool of water flowed over from somewhere, and a small human head emerged from the water. The little girl had white hair and white pupils. It was the little girl from the Xie family (Xie Shu and Xie Ling's younger sister).
After the little girl was "saved" in Dingguo Mansion, no one knew where Qingwu sent her. Even Xiao Yulang thought that the little girl went to the City of the Dead below, waiting to be reincarnated.
Bai Xue looked at Qing Wu eagerly and whispered, "Lord Jin Wu asked me to bring a message to you, Auntie. He said that setting fire and killing ghosts will cost another price. You have to pay extra to do it."
Qing Wu sneered, "A bald chicken is obsessed with money."
After Snow White delivered the message, it turned into a pool of water again and disappeared.
If the Judge's Pen had a face, it would be absolutely stunned.
"You actually sent this little girl to Lord Jinwu? When did you do it?" Judge Pen felt like he was growing a brain: "You and I are inseparable, why am I totally unaware of these things?"
"And Awu, when have you ever contacted Lord Jinwu privately?"
The Judge's Pen is full of doubts about the life of the Pen. Do ghosts have so many tricks? Why can't I kill it?
Qing Wu yawned and rolled her eyes: "I've told you everything. My position as the imperial princess Yinpan has long been usurped by a rebellion. Never let anyone know how many cards and tricks you have. Understand?"
The judge’s pen can’t understand it and his brain can’t keep up.
"I told you that the underworld was in such a mess, but you didn't care at all. I really don't know what tricks you old ghosts are playing. And Master Liu is still missing, but you are still so calm. Is he really missing?"
Qing Wu smiled but said nothing.
"Okay, okay, I won't ask any more questions." The judge sighed, "The ways of the devil are no longer the same as they used to be, and the mind of evil is hard to predict."
When it comes to cunning, compared with humans, it is no match for Brother Yan Tai, and compared with ghosts, it is no match for the bad ghost Awu.
Forget it, just let it go and lie down. It's fine for it to be a tool peacefully.
When the judge felt that he had been crushed into ashes, someone came to deliver a message.
"Princess, the wife of the Right Prime Minister is here to see you."
