Chapter 444: Yo, what's going on? A Qinggong competition in the palace?
Deep in the shadow of the eaves, the dark guard Tianyi folded his arms, shook his head silently, his eyes full of a helpless smile.
His wise and brave master, the one who made his enemies tremble in fear, looked like a completely different person in front of the princess.
An Yi nudged Tian Yi with his elbow and lowered his voice, his tone full of the understanding of someone who has experienced it: "See? As long as the princess is by his side, our master's cold aura, wow, instantly turns into softness."
Tianyi raised an eyebrow, glanced at Anyi, and a mischievous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Ha! How dare you talk about the master behind his back? Bring me some silver and shut me up, otherwise..." He deliberately dragged out the tone, with a hint of threat, "Be careful, I will report to the master and give you a beating!"
An Yi suddenly turned his head and glared at Tian Yi with a look of disbelief: "You kid! Are you crazy because you are poor? You are robbing me?" He pretended to hold his purse tightly.
Tianyi crossed his arms over his chest and said calmly: "Hmm? Give it to me or not?" He looked like he had decided to win.
An Yi was furious, his finger almost touching Tian Yi's nose. "You're such a jerk, Tian Yi! You'll get what you deserve! Believe it or not, I'm going to tell the princess right now that you're bullying me and robbing me. Guess what, will the princess help me get justice, or punish you?"
When Tianyi heard this, the mischievous smile on his face froze.
He was just joking, but he didn't expect that An Yi would actually bring up the "big Buddha" of the princess.
Seeing Tian Yi's frustrated look, An Yi raised his chin proudly and snorted, "Just you? You still want to rob me? Humph! The princess originally rewarded me with some good things, and I wanted to share some with you out of brotherhood. Now? No way!"
Tianyi's eyes turned, and he immediately put on a smiling face. He reached out and tugged at An Yi's sleeve, and his tone softened: "Hey, good brother, I was just joking with you, why did you take it seriously? We are friends now! What good things did the princess give you? Come on, take it out and let me open my eyes!" His face was full of curiosity.
An Yi turned his head away proudly: "No! Who told you to try to rob me just now?"
"Oh, can't I admit that I was wrong?" Tianyi pretended to slap his mouth lightly and smiled apologetically, "Brother, be more generous! Good things are more fragrant when they are shared, right? Besides, I was just joking with you." He moved closer.
An Yi then raised his eyebrows and slowly untied a wine gourd that looked quite ordinary from his waist.
Tianyi took a closer look and immediately frowned, with obvious disappointment in his tone: "Wine? I thought it was some rare treasure." He was not interested.
"Humph! What do you know?" An Yi sneered, holding the wine gourd in his arms like a treasure. He lowered his voice and said with a hint of boasting, "What's in here is not just ordinary wine!"
That day, the princess gave him this spiritual spring water, and he secretly poured it into his usual wine gourd.
He tasted it only once, but the flavor was unforgettable. Now this gourd is more precious than his life.
Tianyi's curiosity was piqued by his words, and he leaned closer suspiciously: "It's not wine? Is it some kind of nectar?"
Tianyi was quick and swift. He took advantage of An Yi's unpreparedness and snatched the wine gourd away! Without waiting for An Yi to react, he pulled out the cork and poured a mouthful of wine into his throat.
The liquid was cool and sweet. As soon as it entered the mouth, an indescribable pure energy slid down the throat and instantly cleansed every part of the body, as if the dry land had received a sweet rain, and the whole person's spirit was lifted!
Tianyi's eyes suddenly widened, emitting an astonishing light, and he blurted out: "This...!"
"Asshole!" An Yi finally reacted, his face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he growled in shock and anger, "Who told you to drink it?! Give it back to me!" He was so heartbroken that he almost bled, and reached out to snatch back his precious gourd.
Tianyi looked at Anyi, whose anger instantly flared up and whose face was wrinkled with heartache, and grinned with an unusually "sincere" smile, even with a hint of flattery: "Brother, didn't you just say that you wanted to share the good stuff with me? Don't be so stingy! This thing..." He smacked his lips, savoring the incomparable clear sweetness and the comfortable warmth throughout his body, his eyes shining, "It's absolutely amazing! Give me two more bites, just two!"
"Don't drink!" An Yi almost screamed, regretting it so much.
Last time when he showed off in front of An Er, that guy kept pestering him and "shared" a lot of it with him. Now there is only a pitiful little half left in the gourd. He treasures it so much that he only dares to take a few small sips cautiously every day to satisfy his craving.
The Tianyi in front of us is even more difficult to deal with than An Er!
When Tianyi saw An Yi preparing to pounce on him and snatch the item, he reacted as fast as lightning. With a tap of his toes, his figure retreated several feet like a wisp of smoke.
An Yi was not willing to give up, he growled and started chasing after him!
Above the silent and solemn palace, a jaw-dropping chase scene suddenly took place - Tianyi, the leader of the Tian-level secret guards, and Anyi, the leader of the An-level secret guards, two top masters who usually made the enemies tremble with fear, were now like two naughty children, leaping and moving among pavilions, rockery and flowers, chasing each other with their clothes fluttering.
The secret guards hiding everywhere looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion and bewilderment.
What are these two gentlemen up to? Aren't they afraid of bumping into the master and the princess?
Tianyi and Anyi were chasing each other fiercely, one running very fast and the other chasing eagerly, and they were completely unaware of the surrounding environment.
As luck would have it, I ran into Mo Liyuan and Lan Xiyue who had just finished dinner and were taking a leisurely walk to digest their food.
Suddenly catching a glimpse of two dark shadows passing before his eyes, Mo Liyuan's handsome face darkened, a chill instantly spreading around him, his voice as cold as ice: "How dare you! What are you doing?!"
The sound was like a spell that froze them. Tian Yi and An Yi, who were chasing each other a second ago, suddenly stopped and stood still stiffly.
At the same time, their hearts skipped a beat, and they secretly cried out, "Oh no!" They quickly turned around, knelt on one knee, and half-knelt in front of their master, their heads bowed deeply, not daring to breathe.
Lan Xiyue couldn't help but burst out laughing at the dramatic scene. Her bright eyes glared at them with interest, "Hey, what's going on? A Qinggong competition in the palace late at night?"
Upon hearing this, An Yi became even more furious and glared at Tian, who was also dejected and beside him.
The two men lowered their heads even lower, feeling extremely upset: they were so busy chasing (snatching) the precious gourd that they disturbed the peace of their master and the princess!
Tianyi was also complaining in his heart: Why did I rush over here in such a panic! Now I have disturbed the master and the princess's leisure...
Seeing the two of them remain silent, Mo Liyuan's face grew even darker, as if covered with a layer of frost. His voice was so cold it could have shattered ice: "Are you both mute?"
