He supported himself on the couch with both hands and tried to sit up. Mu Qingyin, who was sitting on the edge of the couch, saw him and stood up to support him.

A scent of lilies rushed into Bai Jiuhan's nostrils, and he was slightly startled.

He remembered that when he was dizzy, someone carried him away. The person's arms were soft and there was a faint fragrance on his body. Just now he thought it was Mu Qingyin.

But the scent on Mu Qingyin was obviously different from what he smelled.

He looked at Xiaoxi behind Mu Qingyin. He remembered that Xiaoxi knew martial arts. At the beginning, his brother said that he would give Mu Qingyin someone who knew martial arts to protect her.

Could it be her?

"Your name is Xiaoxi, right?"

When Xiaoxi was called, she couldn't hide her surprise and took a step forward, completely unaware of the displeasure in her master's eyes.

Xiao Xi bowed and said: "Your servant Xiao Xi greets the prince."

"Pour me a glass of water."

Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, and the joy in her eyes dimmed again, "Yes, Your Majesty."

She poured a glass of water and brought it over, and Mu Qingyin reached out to take it.

Bai Jiuhan said: "This kind of thing can be left to this servant, bring it here."

Mu Qingyin's hands froze in the air, and she smiled awkwardly: "I'm just worried that I won't be careful enough and won't be able to take good care of you."

"It's just a sip of water. It doesn't matter whether I take care of you or not. Come here." Bai Jiuhan waved at Xiaoxi.

Xiaoxi walked forward with secret satisfaction, stood beside the couch and handed the water to Bai Jiuhan.

The two were still an arm's length apart when the smell of inferior food wafted into their mouths.

Bai Jiuhan frowned slightly. It wasn't her. The smell was too strong.

He glanced around and asked, "Where's Xiaoqi?"

"I asked him to wait outside."

Bai Jiuhan was a little unhappy. When did it become someone else's turn to order his guards around?

The same goes for Zuo Xiaoqi. Instead of staying by his side, he let an outsider take care of him and even ran outside to wait. What's the point of that?

"I have something important to discuss with Xiao Qi. Please help me close the door when you leave."

Seeing that he had ordered her to leave, Mu Qingyin had no choice but to get up and leave.

...

Since Zuo Xiaoqi came in, he noticed that his master seemed unhappy.

He stood there in silence, waiting for his master to speak.

Bai Jiuhan said coldly: "From today on, you will follow Mu Qingyin."

Hearing Bai Jiuhan's words, Zuo Xiaoqi was stunned. Did his master want him to protect Princess Mu?

He knelt down quickly and said, "For such an important task as protecting Princess Mu, why don't you send someone else? I just want to stay by my master's side."

"Oh, you still recognize me as your master. Isn't Mu Qingyin your master?"

Zuo Xiaoqi looked up suddenly and found that his master was really angry.

Thinking of what Lan Zhi said today, he instantly understood what Bai Jiuhan meant.

He lowered his head quickly: "I know I am wrong, please punish me, Master."

"Oh? What's wrong?"

"I shouldn't have listened to Princess Mu."

Bai Jiuhan snorted coldly, "You've learned to react quickly today. Go and receive your punishment later."

"Yes."

"By the way, who saved me today?"

Although everything was going as planned, and even if no one else came to rescue him, Zuo Xiaoqi and his men would not put themselves in danger, but when someone suddenly appeared to save him, he still wanted to know who it was.

"He is the person we rescued in the desert last time. He actually knows medical skills. I can't understand why he didn't detoxify himself?"

"Knowing how to treat a disease doesn't necessarily mean he can poison it, and knowing how to poison a disease doesn't necessarily mean he can provide emergency medical treatment. Go check who he is and what his purpose is."

"Yes."

.............

The White Country is at a high altitude and the clouds seem to be within reach.

Just when she was about to fall asleep, the stars were so bright and the moonlight was so alluring that Lan Zhi actually climbed onto the roof to admire the stars.

Life is too short and too long. Sometimes we sigh that time passes quickly, and often we sigh that life is too long and bitter.

It's always hard to find the time to stop and appreciate the beauty of life.

I realize that life is short and bitter, so I suddenly start to cherish it.

[Host, why are you on this roof? ]

"Don't you find the night scenery here is beautiful?"

Lan Zhi was lying on the roof eating grapes and counting the stars, her mouth never idle.

"A silver plate hangs on the sea of ​​stars, and a tiny boat is in the vastness......

"The winding Milky Way hangs a cloud sail, the full moon shines brightly in the vastness, the Yangtze River is no longer flowing eastward, the desolate desert is waiting for me to return... Oh, I can't go on."

[Host, you are nothing but vastness. 】

"You are in charge... By the way, system, who is that nostril girl today?"

The system naturally knew who she was talking about, and it said: [Host, her name is Mu Qingyin. She was the girl that Bai Chuyin and Bai Jiuhan rescued when they were out for fun ten years ago. Later, the late emperor named her a princess, and she has been living in the palace ever since.]

"Oh, she's a princess, even more arrogant than a prime minister like me."

[I heard that Bai Chuyin and Bai Jiuhan both like her. Bai Chuyin once wanted to depose the queen and make her the queen, but she refused. The person she likes should be Bai Jiuhan.]

【Therefore, there was a rift between the two brothers. 】

"With such a connection, it seems that she and Bai Jiuhan are a pair of lovers, and they can only be together after Bai Jiuhan ascends the throne.

"To be honest, I actually quite like this kind of cold and aloof character, but she's too cold and arrogant, looking down on people with a condescending attitude. Why does she deserve a beating?"

[There are many people who look down on others in real life, and they really deserve a beating. 】

"You are quite knowledgeable. By the way, how is Bai Jiuhan now?"

[Host, Bai Jiuhan is fine now and has woken up.]

"Oh, I hope you're not going to die."

[Host, don't you plan to improve his favorability in front of him? You have to be by his side all the time like Mu Qingyin, in order to improve his favorability.]

"No, I can't learn it."

[Such good conditions, such a good opportunity, you are really wasting it! ]

"We are afraid of society."

.......

Late that night, Lan Zhiqian stayed in Mo Kingdom.

I haven't been to Mo Kingdom for a while. This time I came back just to scare the queen mother.

There's nothing you can do about it, she just holds a grudge.

At about one o'clock in the morning, Empress Dowager Li's bedroom was extremely quiet.

The moonlight fell on the ground. By the window, Lan Zhi, wearing a snow-white dress, blended into the moonlight, with her black hair flying.

This time she didn't put on scary ghost makeup, she still looked her usual self.

There were two palace maids dozing off beside Empress Dowager Li's bed. Lan Zhi slowly approached them and quickly swung her knife, knocking the two maids unconscious.

She looked down at the sleeping Empress Dowager Li, took out a charcoal pencil, and began to draw talismans on her face.

People like them are most afraid of having anything to do with gods and ghosts.

I originally wanted to draw a turtle, but then I thought this talisman style would be the scariest.

"Oh, my damn revengeful heart, her face looks better and better the more I look at it."

I'm really looking forward to her expression when she wakes up.

Lan Zhi patted Empress Dowager Li, who woke up in a daze and a little annoyed.
