But Kunlun was a dangerous place, very dangerous.
“Absolutely not, you can’t go. If you, if you go to Kunlun, I will die in front of you immediately.”
Bai Zhi stared at his face. Her gaze was heavy, she didn’t speak for a long time, and in the end she just turned around and left without saying anything more.
Song Lang reached out to grab her, but she was already far away, or rather, she never let him approached at all.
The empty sense of loss almost overwhelmed him. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn’t come out with a single word.
Xiao Qing said: “Young Master, I’ll take Miss Bai back first.” Bai Zhi doesn’t know martial arts, so she was always worried about going back to the Dongfang Family Mansion.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they left Qingfengyuan, a gorgeous carriage was parked outside the gate, and an old eunuch stood beside it. When he saw Bai Zhi coming out, he immediately walked forward with a smile: “Miss Bai, you’re here. His Majesty invites you into the palace.”
Since Bai Zhi left the palace last time, she has never entered the palace again, why would Chu Yan ask her to enter the palace?
If it wasn’t for the head eunuch who came to pick her up, Eunuch Fu, Chu Yan’s personal eunuch. She would have really wondered if someone was kindnapping someone under his name.
“The emperor suddenly announced me to enter the palace, why?” Bai Zhi asked Eunuch Fu.
Eunuch Fu said: “This old slave doesn’t know about this, I just follow the orders of the Emperor. Please don’t make things difficult for the slave.”
Bai Zhi glanced at the carriage, it was the one she was riding out of the palace earlier, and the little eunuch driving the carriage was also the one last time. The only trace of doubt in her heart dissipated, she nodded and said: “Okay!”
It should be something urgent. She and Chu Yan just met today, if he want to ask her to enter the palace, he can tell her face to face. Why send someone to pick her up? It must be something urgent in the palace.
Bai Zhi turned her head and said to Eunuch Fu: “You stay and take care of your young master, and I will enter the palace by myself.”
Xiao Qing shook her head, this time she was very firm: “No, no, I don’t feel at ease of you entering a place like the palace alone, I will follow you.” She and Bai Zhi do not have a master-servant relationship in the eyes of the world.
Bai Zhi has never regarded her as a servant. She has also changed from the initial respect to Bai Zhi to the current and sincere care.
If she doesn’t go with her to a place like the palace that eats people, if something happens to Bai Zhi, she will never be able to forgive herself.
Bai Zhi couldn’t convince her, so she had no choice but to bring her into the palace. With Xiao Qing around, she was indeed more at ease.
Xiao Qing knows kung fu, and even ordinary men can’t get close to her. She was more calm when she is close by.
The carriage ran very fast, and arrived at the palace in less than half an hour.
Bai Zhi was dizzy from being jolted by the speeding carriage. Fortunately, the time was not too long, otherwise she would have been motion sick.
When the two got out of the car, there was an imperial chariot waiting at the side. A eunuch hurried forward and saluted Bai Zhi: “Miss Bai, the Emperor is waiting for you at Yuqing Palace.”
Yuqing Palace? Isn’t that the residence of the Supreme Emperor?
“Is the Supreme Emperor sick?” Bai Zhi asked.
The eunuch lowered his head, not daring to answer.
Bai Zhi didn’t ask any more questions and just let him lead the way.
The Emperor didn’t speak, so they didn’t dare to say anything nonsense, otherwise the Emperor would get angry, pull out his tongue, it would be small, and cut off his head, it would be big.
The imperial chariot also left in a hurry, making her uncomfortable. She was already extremely uncomfortable being bumped by the carriage, but she would be bumped by the imperial chariot again. She couldn’t bear it anymore, and the imperial chariot stopped outside the gate of Yuqing Palace. Before she got down, she vomited again and again.
It was a pity, those delicacies at noon she ate, was wasted in vain.
