Chapter 304 Encounter
Xiao Ling took her out of Changhua Palace.
She glanced secretly at Bai Rushui.
She had always been curious about what the saint looked like.
Although she had been in Changhua Palace for a month, she had never seen what the Saint looked like.
Many people asked her about it, but she said she didn't know, and they didn't believe her.
Changhua Palace is located in a remote area, very close to the back gate of the Imperial Garden, and there is a shortcut that leads directly there.
This is a path that only old palace maids know. Xiao Ling has been in the palace since she was a child and is very familiar with the imperial palace. She knows which palaces have dog holes.
They soon arrived at the Imperial Garden. Bai Rushui saw many towering trees and the surrounding area was full of spiritual energy, which made her feel inexplicably at peace.
It was quite similar to the forest where she had meditated in the Holy Maiden Pavilion before.
There was a hint of barely perceptible joy in her voice: "Xiao Ling, I'm going to stay here for a while."
As she spoke, she took off her shoes and socks, walked barefoot on the ground, and walked towards the big tree, just like she usually did in the Holy Maiden Pavilion.
Xiao Ling was stunned. How could the saint take off her shoes so casually? Besides, if someone saw her, she would be thrown into a pig cage.
She picked up her socks and walked to Bai Rushui: "Master, put on your shoes and socks quickly, otherwise..."
Bai Rushui closed her eyes and didn't care at all.
The moment she stepped on the ground, she felt the real stability and strength that the earth gave her.
She needed to replenish this strength, otherwise she would die.
Xiao Ling was spinning around in a hurry, and Rongyu saw everything from a distance.
Today those old ministers were looking for trouble with him again, and he was so angry that he left the court early. He was upset and just wanted to be alone.
Unexpectedly, the secret base was discovered by this Nanzhao Saint.
This place is remote and overgrown with weeds, so usually no one comes here. So when he feels upset, he comes here to calm down.
I didn't expect to see this scene today.
Bai Rushui hugged the tree for about a cup of tea, sitting on the ground breathing in and out, with the breeze blowing her veil.
Rongyu felt that the veil was blowing straight into his heart, and he wanted to go up and take off the annoying veil.
He knew she must be a stunning beauty just by looking at her feet.
He couldn't help but want to see her beauty.
When he walked up to her, Xiao Ling was stunned at first when she saw Rongyu, then she was so scared that she wanted to kowtow, but Rongyu shushed her.
Let her go down first.
Xiao Ling's face was wrinkled like bark in anxiety, and she was muttering to herself.
The Empress Dowager has always not wanted the Emperor to meet the Saint, but what should we do now?
But she was the Queen Mother's person after all, so if she hurried to report the news, she might be able to keep her body intact.
She wiped her tears and hurried to report the news.
Bai Rushui was so focused on her connection with the world that she had no idea Rongyu was watching her.
She felt someone approaching and when she opened her eyes she saw a man.
Her eyelashes trembled, she glanced at Rongyu, closed her eyes and continued to breathe.
Rongyu didn't expect that she didn't even take him seriously.
"Do you know who I am?"
Bai Rushui's eyes were indifferent and her voice was soft: "Your Majesty."
Rong Yu looked at her with interest: "You know I am the emperor, why do you have such an attitude? Aren't you afraid that I will punish you?"
"Everything has its destiny. If God really wants to take my life, then please do as you please, Your Majesty."
Rong Yu was stunned for a moment. He had never seen such a woman. Which woman in the harem didn't rush to please her?
This saintly lady didn't take him seriously.
"Take off your veil," Rong Yu ordered.
Bai Rushui still didn't move. Rongyu saw her indifferent expression and became angry, so he picked her up.
Bai Rushui was startled and subconsciously hugged Rongyu's neck.
Rongyu was in a good mood. Bai Rushui knew that she couldn't escape today, so she didn't struggle but just looked at the man's chin quietly.
This man is too conceited.
When everyone in Changhua Palace saw the emperor coming, they were so scared that they knelt on the ground.
In the Empress Dowager's palace, Xiao Ling reported crying:
"Your Majesty, this is too much! The Emperor has seen the Saint, and I am powerless to stop him."
The Queen Mother sighed, what was coming had finally come.
She said calmly, "Go back first. Report any disturbance immediately."
Xiao Ling wiped her tears and said, "I will definitely take good care of the Saint!"
Nanny Chang looked at Xiao Ling's back and asked, "Why did the emperor suddenly think of the Saint? Is he curious?"
The Queen Mother was afraid that he would become curious.
"Let's wait and see what happens."
The Queen Mother unconsciously sped up the Buddhist beads in her hand.
The Queen Mother was helpless, and she did not want to interrupt her son's pampering of the concubines in the harem.
The two of them already had conflicts, and it would be really not worth it if they were to have another rift because of a Nanzhao Saint.
Rongyu has been holding Bai Rushui since he entered the room. He was shocked by the weight of this woman. How could someone be so light?
"Don't you want to eat properly?"
Bai Rushui didn't expect him to ask this.
"I'm not used to it."
Rong Yu frowned, "Didn't these dog slaves take good care of you?"
The servants below saw that the emperor was furious and knelt down, crying out in injustice:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Lady Bai only eats vegetarian food, and she eats very little. It's not that we are not diligent. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Rongyu squeezed her slender waist.
"You're a vegetarian?"
"Eating meat will cause vomiting." Bai Rushui said lightly, looking at the man's hand on her wrist.
Rongyu glanced at the eunuch kneeling on the ground:
"Get out of here!"
All the eunuchs and maids in the room retreated.
Rong Yu held Bai Rushui's face and said, "Take off your veil."
Bai Rushui had already anticipated what was going to happen next and didn't hesitate.
Rongyu forgot to breathe and was motionless for a moment.
He had long heard that the Holy Maiden of Nanzhao Kingdom was as beautiful as a flower, but he never imagined that she was so beautiful.
Even his favorite concubine, Li Shufei, pales in comparison to the saint.
He couldn't help but touch her face, but stopped when his hand was about to touch her.
"Fairies are no more than this!"
He hesitated only for a moment before he was about to kiss her.
Bai Rushui lowered her eyes: "I'm not a virgin."
Rong Yu was stunned for a moment, then he angrily said, "How dare Nanzhao deceive me?"
Bai Rushui said nothing, but just looked at him angrily.
Rongyu looked at her face and his anger disappeared instantly. Looking at her, he felt calm unconsciously.
Her fair skin glowed softly in the morning light, like a fairy who had descended from the sky to save him.
The faint eyebrows are like the mist on the distant mountains.
Her nose is delicate and straight, and her pink lips are slightly pursed, making her look very pitiful.
What captivated him most were those eyes.
The corners of her eyes were upturned like a little swallow, and just a glance up swept across his heart.
He couldn't hold back any longer and held her face and kissed her gently.
The woman in his arms, a frown or a snort, could cost him his life.
Seeing the blush on her face because of him, he felt as if he was eighteen years old again.
Rongyu lost control.
He had never been keen on this matter, thinking it was just an obligation to continue the family line. This was the first time he truly experienced happiness.
Rongyu hugged her from behind and asked, "How am I?"
Bai Rushui was so tired that she didn't want to say a word.
"Better than them all."
