All the concubines in the harem are time travelers
Chapter 40: Too Outrageous
Wang Huai wanted to go forward and call Bu Ji, but was stopped by Li Ji.
"Your Majesty, this..."
He pointed to the roof, looking helpless.
Which woman would sit on the roof, except Miss Keyan, whom Prince Yu brought back from outside.
Li Ji looked calm as he stood at the foot of the palace wall not far away, staring at her.
Bu Ji tilted his head to look at the moon in another direction, completely unaware that someone was staring at him.
She withdrew her gaze from the moon and looked around casually. Suddenly, her expression changed, as if she saw someone.
Li Ji hurriedly withdrew his gaze, subconsciously took a step back, and held his breath.
Wang Huai bent over, tightly grasping the whisk in his hand, and the tassel on the whisk trembled with the rhythm of his shoulders.
As the head of the Imperial Household Department, he had never been in such a mess before.
The sound of Bu Ji talking to someone came from the roof.
"Miss Keyan, why are you out so late at night?"
The two people hiding under the palace wall not far away breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Li Ji stood up and saw a woman with a sword on her back leaping onto the roof. She was a neat girl from the martial arts world, dressed in casual clothes. She must have run away from Yongshou Hall.
He took two more steps before he saw Bu Ji who was blocked by Ke Yan.
Wang Huai saw that the emperor's face looked strange and said in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, I will call them down right away."
Li Ji spoke calmly.
"No need."
He wanted to see what these two people were doing spying on the roof so late at night.
Wang Huai retreated slowly.
It's really weird today, everyone likes to climb onto the roof.
on the roof.
Ke Yan stood in front of Bu Ji, with her feet on the edge of the roof, standing firmly. She opened her mouth, and her cold voice cut through the silent night.
"Mr. Bu, I wanted to return these things, and I happened to see you on the roof."
Bu Ji was surprised to meet Ke Yan. He pulled her to sit down together and saw that the clothes and jewelry in her arms were the ones he gave her yesterday.
"Do you not like it?"
She pointed to the goose yellow skirt.
Ke Yan shook her head. Facing the moonlight, Bu Ji could see the tear marks on her face. Her eyes were swollen from crying.
"Then why did you give it back to me?"
"And cried..."
Ke Yan rubbed her face with her hands. She had clearly wiped it dry, so how come someone could still see it?
"No, it's just that this dress is too expensive. I can't accept it."
Bu Ji pouted and didn't believe her at all.
She left happily, but came back crying the next day. Someone must have said something unpleasant to her.
Apart from Prince Yu, she couldn't think of anyone else.
"I gave it to you, so there's no reason to take it back. No matter what others say, I said you can afford it."
"You should wear more bright colors and stop dressing like a female assassin."
Ke Yan was stunned. What Bu Guiren said was right. She was indeed a female killer.
He is a killer hired by Prince Yu himself.
She was used to staying out at night and walking on the roof at night, and would never leave her master's side during the day.
If Ji Man had not caught a cold, it would not have been her turn to accompany Prince Yu to live in Yongshou Hall.
"In fact, His Highness doesn't like it..."
"I was also wearing a silk skirt before, which did not hinder my martial arts practice and... killing people."
The last two words were left unspoken and she swallowed them, for fear of frightening the delicate little noblewoman in front of her.
Bu Ji suddenly stood up and put his hands on his hips.
She didn't have Ke Yan's ability to stand steadily on the steep roof. Her body swayed and she looked shaky.
Li Ji, who was standing by the palace wall, frowned twice and the corners of his mouth curved slightly downwards.
His long legs had already stepped out, then retracted.
Wang Huai also broke out in a cold sweat for Bu Ji. It was horrifying to see her body shaking a few times as she stood up from the six or seven meter high roof.
Bu Ji stood firm and spoke through gritted teeth.
"What do you care what he likes?"
"Why should women's clothes depend on men's wishes, but men don't care about women's wishes?"
"Take Li Ji for example. He wears yellow and black all day long. I've long been tired of seeing him, but I didn't say anything."
Wang Huai held his breath and stared at Bu Guiren on the roof with wide eyes.
Was the dinner that the imperial kitchen sent to her today bear heart and leopard gall?
She was calling the emperor's name as if she was risking her life.
But when he looked at the emperor beside him, he found that there was no anger on the emperor's face. Instead, he lowered his head and stared at the ink-colored dragon robe on his body, speaking with tightly pursed lips.
"She is not worthy of despising my dragon robe and becoming arrogant because of my favor."
"That's right, Your Majesty, Lady Bu is too presumptuous."
"Do you have the right to interrupt me when I'm talking?"
Wang Huai responded, "Okay, only the emperor can say it, he can't say it."
On the day the emperor ascended the throne, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent him colorful uniforms. The emperor said at the time that they looked like a peacock with its feathers spread out, and were very ugly.
Ke Yan carefully helped Bu Ji sit on the red brick tiles and said.
"But women have always been like this. Whether it's wearing flowers or wearing clothes, it's all to please the one they love."
"Noble Lady Bu is more special than any woman I have ever met. No wonder the Emperor and Lord Liang both have a special liking for her."
Bu Ji immediately covered her mouth.
"You can't mention Liang Xing. I just cleared myself of any relationship with him in front of the emperor."
Beside the palace wall, when Wang Huai heard this, his hand loosened and the whisk fell to the ground with a "pop".
Is this a confession by Noble Lady Bu, a disguised admission of her secret relationship with Lord Liang in the past?
He raised his head, looking for the emperor's back.
But he saw that the emperor had already walked forward several steps, then stopped where he was with a dark face and a deep and cold gaze.
He stepped forward and tugged at the emperor's sleeve.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late and we have to attend the morning court tomorrow."
But I can't get angry now. I've been eavesdropping for so long. If I show my face again, people will think that the emperor is not doing things in an upright manner.
What's more, Miss Keyan from Yongshou Hall is also here, and Prince Yu is a man who cannot keep secrets.
The emperor's eavesdropping must not be spread.
Before Li Ji could speak, Bu Ji, who was sitting on the roof, yawned and stretched.
"Ke Yan, I have to go back. I have to leave the palace tomorrow."
"Oh, yes, I have already asked for permission."
"You don't have to return the things. We can talk about it another day."
Ke Yan looked at the gorgeous silk dress in her hand, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
What Concubine Bu said does make sense. Even if Prince Yu doesn't like it, she can still wear this dress.
She was not a slave bought by Prince Yu, but a female killer who had saved his life many times. Why did Prince Yu treat her so harshly? Was it just because she liked her?
This is so unfair.
Bu Ji almost let the cat out of the bag just now, but luckily he had an idea and told a white lie.
If Ke Yan knew that she had left the palace without permission, wouldn't he be forced to become her accomplice?
She bent down and slowly climbed down from the roof.
Li Ji was standing right below her. He moved aside a step and watched her with cold eyes as she climbed backwards down from the roof.
