Yao Ye's invitation and an unfolding incident

Suddenly, Qian Ye felt something blocking her mouth, moving around, and a unique fragrance wafted towards her. ° 🎀 🎀 °

The scent was familiar; it was Lin Fei's. He opened his eyes and saw that it really was Lin Fei, except that she was now lying on top of him and kissing his lips.

Uh~

Qian Ye was speechless, so he kissed her.

It seems she has realized her intentions, which is why she has taken such initiative.

One hour later.

Lin Fei, holding Qian Ye's hand, led him out of the Small Forest: "Brother Ye, I thought you were a bad guy who wanted to kill me, but it turns out you just wanted to help me. The seventh-grade pill, Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill, can, if taken when severely injured or on the verge of death, allow one to break through to the next level with a bit of luck. That's why I've already gone from Nine-Star Da Dou Shi to Seven-Star Dou Ling, and I've also broken through from a second-grade pharmacist to a third-grade pharmacist."

"So your move just now was just a ruse, a feigned injury. How come I didn't think of that? If I had, I wouldn't have been afraid, and I wouldn't have misunderstood you."

Hearing her words, Qian Ye smiled and said, "If you knew, what good would it do? Would you put in so much effort to face me? Would you feel threatened? Would it help you level up and improve your strength?"

"Um..." Lin Fei couldn't continue. That's so true. If Brother Ye told her the truth, would she still be able to fight to the death?

Obviously not.

So, for his own sake, Brother Ye was willing to take the blame and be misunderstood, even going so far as to make himself fall in love with the role, and so convincingly that he himself experienced a breakthrough and a significant increase in his cultivation. "Brother Ye, don't be angry! I just want to say, your acting was superb."

"Don't tell me I was kept in the dark; even if there were other people around, they would have been completely drawn in by your incredibly realistic acting."

Qian Ye laughed. Of course, he was an expert in this area. If his acting wasn't good, who was?

"Feifei, it's good that you know." Qian Ye said, patting Lin Fei's head, and then walked forward first.

Lin Fei quickly followed, but didn't go forward to hold his hand again. After all, they had already arrived in front of the house, and she was embarrassed to let Ning'er and the other palace maids see them and make a fool of herself.

But deep down she felt a sweet warmth, having already come to regard Qian Ye as the person she admired most in her heart.

Three days later.

morning.

With Ning'er by her side, Qian Ye finished her breakfast properly when Xia'er suddenly burst in from outside, bumping right into her.

"My lord, I'm so sorry!" Xia'er apologized hastily after realizing she had accidentally bumped into Qian Ye.

Qian Ye looked at her, showing no sign of blaming her. "Xia'er, is something the matter?"

"Yeah.💙♞ . cOpaw 🐙☟" Xia'er nodded quickly and said, "The eldest princess is here. She said she wanted to see you and is waiting in the meeting hall."

I see.

Qian Ye patted Xia'er's head to reassure her before heading towards the Council Hall.

Xia'er was stunned for a moment, thinking to herself, "I just offended him, but he didn't blame me?"

And... and he even touched his own head, comforting himself, thinking how kind the adults were to him.

Xia'er thought to herself, a bright smile appeared on her face as she caught up with his retreating figure.

Council Hall of the Imperial Preceptor's residence.

Yao Ye sat in a chair with a cup of tea on the table in her hand. She picked up the tea, took a sip, crossed her legs, and seemed to be thinking about something. However, she did not sit in the seat of honor. Although she was the eldest princess, she did not take the place of the host, mainly to give face to Qian Ye. Otherwise, it would not have been a problem for her to sit in the seat of honor.

As soon as Qian Ye entered, he saw Yao Ye sitting elegantly to one side. He glanced at her long legs that were crossed high, and had to admit that she had a really good figure.

He didn't stand on ceremony, but instead of taking the seat of honor, he sat down in the chair next to her. Ning'er immediately handed him a cup of hot tea, which he picked up and slowly sipped.

Just as she put down her teacup, she inadvertently caught a whiff of a delicate fragrance emanating from Yao Ye: "Princess, may I ask what brings you to my residence today?"

Yao Ye looked at him, and her face flushed. Originally aloof and elegant, she was usually like Iceberg queen, rarely smiling, a woman who was not inferior to men. As the future Empress of the Jia Ma Empire, she had seen countless people and had never been intimidated by a man before.

But for some reason, she couldn't help feeling nervous and shy in front of the handsome man, completely lacking her usual domineering demeanor.

Am I poisoned?

"Oh, it's nothing really. I just need to meet someone, but I suddenly thought of you, so I thought I'd see if you'd like to come along? Just come with me for a walk, and I'll introduce you to her, how about it?" Yao Ye revealed her purpose.

Qian Ye: "..."

Does he want me to be his bodyguard?

Or is he my boyfriend?

"Okay, when do we leave?" Qian Ye thought for a moment. Going out for a walk would be good, after all, he had been invited by such a beautiful princess. He might as well treat it as a trip.

"Shall we go now?" Yao Ye looked delighted and immediately got up and headed for the door.

Qian Ye: "..."

So anxious?

Speechless, I couldn't go back on my word since I'd already agreed.

Upon arriving outside, Qian Ye saw a magnificent carriage parked at the entrance, made of bronze, iron, and gold; it was enormous.

It seems this is the mode of transportation we usually use to get around at Yao Ye.

He smiled, got into the carriage with her, and after they were seated, the coachman spurred the horses forward.

Qian Ye and she sat together in the back row, leaving some empty space between them.

The carriage is spacious enough, but there's only one seat. If you squeeze in, three adults can barely sit. Usually, Yao Ye rides in Yao Ye, so it's basically her personal carriage. Naturally, there aren't many seats; one is enough.

The capital of the Jia Ma Empire, also known as "Jia Ma Sacred City," is the most prosperous city and political center of this small empire. It is home to three major families: the Nalan, Mu, and Mittel Clan.

The capital city was bustling with people. Qian Ye sat in his carriage, he could see pedestrians and carriages flowing endlessly on both sides of the streets.

That's normal. As the capital city and the most prosperous city, most people, merchants, and nobles live here. In addition, tourists from all over the world come and go, which is also a major reason for the dense population of the capital city.

"Imperial Preceptor, have you heard any news recently?" Yao Ye suddenly asked.

"What?" Qian Ye didn't understand what he meant, but his gaze was fixed on the street.

Yao Ye looked at his profile, not even glancing at her. Was she really that unattractive to him? "It's the Mittel Clan, one of the three great families in our capital. Recently, their auction house and almost all their shops have closed down."

I see.

Qian Ye thought for a moment and realized that it must be because the Mist Yun Sect was going to deal with the Mittel Clan that they were so nervous, "Why?"
