Yun Yizhuo's face turned red instantly after being asked directly by Ruan Xiaojiu. He felt a little unnatural, but he still managed to remain calm and answered, "Yes, I miss the prince a little bit." After saying that, he turned his face away, as if he didn't dare to look her in the eye.

Ruan Xiaojiu felt really strange this time. What made them change? Didn't they act so arrogant before? Now they can say that they miss me. This is very abnormal! What happened?

She continued walking towards the front hall without saying a word. Guan Qian wanted to say something behind her, but didn't find the chance.

Han Yuchen fell to the back, and was impressed by Ruan Xiaojiu's domineering performance. Not only was she a martial arts expert and beautiful, but most importantly, she was capable! She was much better than his parents who only talked big and said they would save him, but they never showed up.

After the turmoil in Yaowang Valley, the capital city suffered considerable losses and disrupted the original order and stability in the city.

However, no matter how chaotic it was, Ruan Xiaojiu's palace was not greatly affected.

Except for Xiao Cui who hid in Ruan Xiaojiu's room, the others included Xiao Fuzi, Xiao Yu and some guards. It can be said that the entire palace had hidden themselves when they saw that the situation was not good. The purpose of the Ninth Palace has always been to protect itself and to protect the palace.

When they heard the news and saw that their prince and masters had returned, they returned to their posts and became busy in the palace.

.........

Ruan Siqi was hiding in the quilt. After hearing everything outside the door, she felt it was not appropriate to continue lying there, so she got dressed and stood up.

In the dining room, Ruan Xiaojiu sat in the middle, surrounded by Yun Yizhou, Feng Liushang and others, all wanting to say something to her.

"Your Highness, did your trip to Qionghai go smoothly this time?" Guan Qian'an, who had not interrupted the conversation just now, asked with concern.

Suddenly, he thought of something and changed his words, "Look at what I said, your action must have been successful, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to come back in time to save us."

Ruan Xiaojiu looked at him, his eyes flickered, and he felt a little embarrassed to meet Ruan Xiaojiu's gaze.

"Your Highness, you don't know how worried we have been about you since you went to the front line. The swords and knives on the battlefield are ruthless. What if a woman like you gets injured? Take me with you next time. Even though my martial arts skills are not very good for Your Highness, I can still help you a little. However, you are really brave, and I really like you like this." Feng Liushang said excitedly and unwilling to be outdone.

Ruan Xiaojiu smiled faintly at the few people and said, "How could this king's strength be injured? You worry too much."

"Yes, yes, Your Highness is right. Your Highness is the most powerful." Feng Liushang said obediently.

Seeing Ruan Xiaojiu's high spirits, Yun Yizhou couldn't help but feel happy. "Your Highness, I care about you too. But you've been in Qionghai for so long, don't you have any gifts for us?"

When Han Yuchen heard about the gift, he immediately looked at Ruan Xiaojiu with expectant eyes, blinking his eyes and looking very well-behaved, obviously looking forward to it.

North courtyard.

Wu Zhenkai woke up slowly, and his little Si had prepared water for him to wash his face and was waiting for him to get up.

Wu Zhenkai thought a lot last night and went to bed late. He didn't want to get close to Ruan Xiaojiu, so he slept very soundly. Others went to stop Ruan Xiaojiu early, but he was completely unaware.

When he got up, he felt that the yard was very quiet. He asked in confusion, "Why are they so quiet today? Haven't they gotten up yet? That can't be the case. It's already so late." As he spoke, he was already dressed.

His little servant heard Wu Zhenkai talking to himself or asking him a question, so he replied, "Master Yun and Master Feng went to the prince's main courtyard early in the morning. I don't know what happened."

"Everyone is gone?"

"They're all gone."

"Then why didn't you inform me in advance?"

"I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't disturb you." Xiao Si lowered his head and didn't dare to confront Wu Zhenkai.

"Come over and wash up for me. I want to see what they are doing behind my back."

dining room.

Xiao Zeming sat on the periphery, watching all this. During this time, he had heard from others that Ruan Xiaojiu would leave the capital at some point, but her destination was uncertain, so he wanted to follow her.

If it were before, he would definitely not have any ideas, but now, he wants to follow, but he doesn't know whether Ruan Xiaojiu will take him with him.

But think about it, the capital is in chaos now, and he will have to put things in order before he can leave, so he still has time.

Looking at Ruan Xiaojiu's lazy and in-control attitude, a strange emotion flashed through his mind.

"Gift?" Ruan Xiaojiu's eyes rolled around. She didn't have the habit of bringing gifts to others, but looking at the expectant eyes of several people, she casually took out a set of her ordinary ancient martial arts from the space.

Several people were surprised that a classical book appeared out of nowhere, and were curious about how it suddenly appeared.

"This is a set of martial arts secret manuals that I stumbled upon during my trip to Qionghai. As for gifts, I think this is the most suitable for you."

When they heard this, they looked at each other in confusion, with some indescribable emotions on their faces.

"How can a man like this be like a piece of trash, incompetent and unable to protect himself?"

Xiao Zeming and others, "..." They are not that useless!

"All your arts of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting are just grandstanding skills that are of no use at all. It would be better for you to learn some real skills. Only then will you be worthy of staying by my side."

These words were a bit hurtful, but no one said anything. The atmosphere that was just heated up was now silent.

They are Ruan Xiaojiu's harem and cannot appear before the emperor or serve as officials, so those skills are really useless.

"Your Highness, I'm eighteen years old. Isn't it too late to learn martial arts now?" Guan Qian'an was worried that he wouldn't learn well and would be abandoned by Ruan Xiaojiu again, so he asked impatiently. Besides, he really knew nothing about martial arts and had no interest in it. He had never thought that one day he would have to learn martial arts.

"People must have perseverance, persistence, the ability to endure hardships and hard work. If you can do these, it will be impossible for you to fail to learn. Even if you don't learn well, it won't be too bad. What are you afraid of?" Ruan Xiaojiu said casually.

"Will you teach us personally?" Yun Yizhou didn't want to learn either, but if Ruan Xiaojiu taught him personally, he could still learn.

"I have no basic knowledge. Can I really learn it?" Han Yuchen was eager to try, but was afraid that he would only be a half-baked learner in the end.

"I will teach you the spells, but it's up to you to figure out how to do it. If you end up being a complete idiot, I won't look down on you."

"So you have to study hard and practice diligently!" Ruan Xiaojiu showed a cunning look on his face. Asking for a gift from me, how could this be difficult for me?

Yun Yizhou was a little regretful at this moment. Why did he ask for a gift for no reason? Now, instead of seeing the gift, he got himself into trouble.

Only Feng Liushang had a happy look on his face, his eyes shining. He picked up the secret book that Ruan Xiaojiu had placed on the table and started reading it.
