Chapter 21
On the outskirts of Jiangling, there is a separate courtyard.

White water vapor permeated the entire room like smoke and mist, and the luminous pearl quietly exuded orchid light, giving off a somewhat seductive appearance amidst the colorful mist.

What came into view was a huge hot spring pool with flawless white jade walls, two green dragons soaring into the air, and the warm spring water constantly spit out from the mouth of the green dragons.

In the center of the pool, the man slightly closed his eyes and leaned against the pool wall behind him, as if he was taking a nap.

A silver ghost mask cut off the sight of all beings looking up, only to see the ink-like hair pouring down, sliding over his perfectly lined jaw, and sinking into the gurgling clear water, giving rise to all kinds of charms for no reason.

Even though he was in the warm spring water, the steaming heat couldn't dispel the chill that permeated his body.It is a kind of coldness that seems to emanate from the depths of the soul, which can freeze this pool of warm water, a room of heat, and even the sun.

A sound of light footsteps came from outside the crystal bead curtain, and then Ye Xiu lifted the curtain and entered, stopping seven steps away from the hot spring pool.

"Master, the matter you want to investigate has been found."

Ye Xiu glanced at the man in the pool who seemed to be asleep, bowed his head slightly, and said respectfully.

"Say!"

The man opened his eyes suddenly, and his sight penetrated the mist and fell on Yexiu's body. In the quiet night, those mysterious and deep purple eyes seemed to be hidden in an abyss, inhabited by purgatory monsters. Just one glance makes people tremble with fear.

Ye Xiu's heart skipped a few beats. After so many years, he still couldn't look directly into those eyes, as if his soul would be imprisoned if he looked at them any more.

"Reporting to the master, this girl's name is Yun Ruo, she is nineteen years old, and she is the seventh lady of the Yong'an Hou Mansion. Although she is ranked seventh, she is the only concubine daughter of the Hou Mansion. She is weak and has no advantages, but Yuntian loves her in every possible way. The current queen mother even married her to Chu Tianyao 13 years ago. It has been delayed until now, but today is the day of the two people's wedding."

After Ye Xiu finished speaking, he lowered his head all the time, but he was a little guilty in his heart, since tonight is the wedding night of that stinky girl and the emperor, why did she appear on the street alone?Moreover, it still looks like a ghost!Most importantly, the imperial guards running around the city were clearly looking for her!
What's wrong with her?

"Insufficient mind? Cowardly and weak?"

A voice of broken jade and thin ice floated in the wind, and the scattered chill suddenly awakened Ye Xiu Feiyuan's thoughts, his heart skipped a beat, he raised his head slightly but didn't dare to look into the man's eyes, "Master, the result of the investigation is indeed what it said ..."

However, it really doesn't seem like she's mentally incomplete that that dead girl can slip away from under their noses!
Things that even he can't believe, the master...

A thin layer of sweat suddenly appeared on Ye Xiu's back, "All the information in the past 19 years has been shown in this way, that Yun Ruo is indeed stupid, a little idiot and weak! It seems, except for tonight... "

The man was soaked in the water, and the mysterious purple eyes reflected in the creeping mist were even more enchanting, making it impossible to see the emotion in his eyes.

The slender fingertips carelessly caressed the moyu finger, the man's slender lips moved slightly, and his voice was as cold as ever, "Then start investigating tonight."

"Ah? Today, tonight?" Ye Xiu's face was stunned for a moment, did he go to check her bridal chamber wedding night?
Forehead!Why is it a bit weird?What else can you do on a bridal chamber wedding night?Where does this need to be checked?

However, although Ye Xiu's heart was filled with surprise and doubt, he didn't dare, nor would he have the slightest doubt.

"Yes! This subordinate will investigate now!"

As soon as the words fell, Yexiu's figure turned into a gust of wind and disappeared into the room.

In the hot spring pool, the man looked up at the dawn sky outside the window, and there seemed to be an unpredictable stream of light flashing in those charming eyes.

"Cloud...if..."

The low and shallow words are like a piece of flying snow in the endless night, falling on the cold pool without waves in the ancient well, smudged with strands of coolness, and under the blue candlelight, there is endless danger hidden.

……

At this moment, in a forest on the outskirts of the imperial capital.

"Ah—help—"

A ghostly cry sounded without warning, startling countless birds that were sleeping in the forest at night.Yun Qianruo suddenly sat up from the big tree, her sleepy eyes were full of annoyance, and her pretty little face was also full of depression.

However, after waking up, she realized that she was dreaming!
He stretched out his hand and patted his chest, but the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "Didn't this girl just accidentally break his belt? What a big deal! As for being hunted down even in a dream?"

Yawning lazily, Yun Qianruo looked up at the sky, and there was a fish-belly whiteness in the east, and a faint morning light pierced the darkness, gradually lighting up the light.

"Yawn—it's only five o'clock at most right now? I was scared to wake up! I'm sorry I didn't sleep until I woke up naturally..."

Yun Qianruo stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyes, then lay down on the branch again, her face was even more depressed than before.

Last night, I was chased by that fat old man and ran around the capital, and finally got rid of him. I wanted to sleep until the sky was dark, but I didn't want to...

"Hey——" Thinking of the 'inhuman' treatment she received after being caught by the beautiful man in the dream, Yun Qianruo couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "How can a beautiful man be so ignorant of pity and pity?! It's too violent!"

"I want to make a wish, never to meet that ice cube again! Amitabha!"

One person talked to the sky for a while, but the drowsiness dissipated a lot. Thinking of the kit in his pocket, Yun Qianruo sighed again, full of entanglements.

Although she accepted this kit due to the situation, after all, there is a little girl's life-saving prescription in it!If she didn't send it, wouldn't it be an innocent life?
Although she has never been a sage who is compassionate and compassionate to all sentient beings, it is too wicked to do such a thing!
"Hey—the dead old man is too irresponsible!"

If she didn't go, wouldn't that innocent little girl die?

"Forget it...Anyway, the old man said that Jiangling City is not far away, so I think this girl is just going for a walk...By the way, let's investigate the customs of this ancient time!"

After she settled her mind, Yun Qianruo bounced up from the branch like a carp, and a lightly whirling figure landed in midair, "Let's go, go to Jiangling! I hope it won't be too boring!"

However, just after Yun Qianruo left for a while, there was a sudden sound of fighting in the dense forest ahead, and the strong smell of blood filled the morning wind, which made people frown.

"Could someone be hunted down like this girl?" Yun Qianruo touched her nose, a little curious.
