The matter was resolved satisfactorily. Qu Li was very happy and naturally wanted to follow the high priest back.
The three Changsun Chi brothers and her cousins all looked at her reluctantly.
"Okay, I'll come back to see you when I have the chance!" Qu Li smiled.
"Cousin, the high priest is a very sinister and cunning person!" Chang Sun Wu lowered his voice. "If you stay with such a person, he will definitely hurt you!"
"Third cousin, don't worry! We don't know who will kill whom in the end!" Qu Li's brows were full of confidence.
"Cousin, just live here peacefully. I will protect you!" Chang Sun Chi patted his strong chest, "even if it costs me my life!"
Qu Li felt warm in his heart, and his nose felt a little sour.
She choked up and said, "Brother, don't you want the Changsun family to return to the court with dignity?"
These words actually made Chang Sun Chi silent.
The Changsun clan has always been loyal to the royal family, and every generation has lived to safeguard the imperial power.
If the high priest had not become increasingly powerful, Changsun Wuji would not have been forced to resign in order to protect the descendants of the Changsun clan.
"Okay, I won't leave Xiling in the short term!" Qu Li glanced at the high priest.
The high priest's eyes were on her face the whole time, and when he saw her looking at him, the smile on his lips deepened.
Because of the high priest's protection of Qu Li, Lan Yuqiao even ignored Lan Yufeng's lifelong disability and wanted to let Changsun Lingsi return to the imperial city. He felt like a raging fire was burning in his heart.
She glared at Qu Li with resentment, and her hand holding the sword tightened little by little.
"Miss, what should we do?" asked the people from the Lan family army.
Lan Yuqiao's eyebrows were sharp, "Go back first!"
After Qu Li and the high priest boarded the carriage, the high priest crossed his arms and asked calmly, "Are you satisfied?"
"What?"
"Playing dumb with me?"
Didn't she deliberately dig such a big hole today just to support the Changsun family?
Even Changsun Lingsi is about to return from exile, so those who want to trample on the Changsun family will naturally restrain themselves in the future.
"I really don't have the time to play dumb with you! The truth is, if Lan Yufeng and Kalu had kept themselves clean, how could they have ended up like this? One is disabled for life, the other is impotent, they deserve it!"
The high priest stared at the face that looked very similar to Li Ran with a burning gaze, his mind in a state of confusion.
Like Li Ran, she is particularly hostile to evil.
That's why she hated what he did so much back then!
Seeing that he was staring at her, Qu Li's brows furrowed and he became wary.
"You and my mother are old acquaintances, and I am your junior!" She had a stern face, a bad tone, and her eyes were full of disgust.
"After what happened today, what do you think they will say about the relationship between you and me?"
"The captain of the Silver Wolf Guard is destined to forsake all love and affection. So, are you, the high priest, also destined to forsake all love and affection?"
The high priest's pupils constricted, and then he raised the corners of his mouth playfully: "Now I have the final say in the entire Xiling. Do you think I would be afraid of this?"
Qu Li leaned back and said coldly, "With your current status as the High Priest, naturally no one will arbitrarily interfere with any of your decisions! However, just because they won't do it openly doesn't mean they won't do it in secret. After all, you're violating Xiling's ancestral rules!"
The high priest suddenly leaned forward, and the dangerous aura instantly engulfed her.
Her hand under her sleeve quickly flipped and she took out an anesthetic needle from the space.
If he dares to do anything to her, she will let him taste the biggest anesthetic needle!
"I don't need to be the high priest of Xiling! When that happens, guess who will die first!"
Qu Li's pupils narrowed. "You're threatening me with the Emperor's life. That's outrageous! I don't have any friendship with him!"
The high priest suddenly pinched her chin. Although his eyes were full of plunder and malice, his voice was extremely gentle.
"But the Emperor and Changsun Lingyue are in tune with each other!"
She defends the Changsun family so much, and even tries her best to protect Changsun Lingsi, whom she has never met. This shows how important her family is to her.
Qu Li exuded murderous intent, "No wonder my mother chose my father. You are not worthy at all!"
This angered the high priest.
He suddenly kissed her delicate lips.
Every cell in Qu Li's body was filled with disgust, and the anesthetic needle in his hand pierced deeply into the back of his neck.
The high priest's pupils narrowed in anger, and Qu Li quickly pushed the anesthetic into him.
The high priest looked unwilling, but in the end he rolled his eyes and fell down.
"I'll let you flirt with me again!" Qu Li wiped his mouth and stepped on his face.
"What happened to the high priest?" the driver asked outside.
"Nothing!" Qu Li replied in a muffled voice.
The driver felt something was wrong and was about to lift the curtain, but he heard a "slurping" sound of water that made him blush and his heart beat faster.
He coughed twice and awkwardly withdrew his hand that was touching the car curtain.
Qu Li breathed a sigh of relief, removed his index and middle fingers from his lips, and glared at the high priest.
She stared at his face and slowly approached.
Her fingers fell behind his ear, but she didn't touch the human skin mask.
Qu Li was surprised and unbuttoned his collar again, but still found nothing.
What's going on?
Could this be the true appearance of the high priest?
Qu Li was bewildered.
She sat there staring at him for a long time, stepped on him twice, then simply stripped off his clothes and threw him into the space.
The driver drove slowly all the way, circled twice, and when he heard no more sound inside, he headed towards the high priest's palace.
The carriage stopped and the driver saw Qu Li got off first. Her lips were obviously swollen. When she looked at him, he quickly lowered his head.
"The high priest said to rest in the carriage for a while. Don't disturb him." After giving the instructions, she took the lead and entered the high priest's mansion.
The coachman waited by the side for a long time, but the high priest still didn't come out, so he plucked up the courage to call out a few times in a low voice.
The high priest woke up slowly, feeling dizzy. He raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows.
The driver heard the sound and whispered, "High Priest, do you want to get off?"
"Um!"
The driver lifted the curtain, his eyes widened and his jaw almost dropped.
this?
The high priest was completely naked!
He looked at the high priest nakedly, fearing that his life was in danger. He wanted to withdraw his hand quickly, but his mind went blank and he stood there in a daze.
The high priest realized that he was naked and his sense of shame grew rapidly. He exerted his internal force and the coachman groaned and fell to the ground.
"Give me your clothes!" His voice was cold and murderous.
The driver did not dare to delay and took off his clothes quickly.
The high priest dressed hastily, got off the carriage and headed straight for the Orchid Garden.
The maids and guards who passed by saw that his face was as black as the ash at the bottom of a pot and there was a low pressure around him, so they all tacitly lowered their presence.
"Bang--"
