Traveling through another world to stir the emperor's heart

The servant next to him looked at the two people who were drinking tea silently in front of him, their eyes cast towards the street outside, and he was puzzled in his heart, unable to guess what they were thinking.

At this moment, Bei Xiu spoke calmly, "Pavilion Master, this matter... look, have you thought it through?"

Lan Ying pretended to be confused and looked at Bei Xiu with a puzzled look on her face: "What do you mean, Your Highness? What are you talking about?"

Bei Xiu frowned, his face showing displeasure, but his tone was restrained: "This prince would like to invite you to go to Beiyan East Palace to sit for a while."

Lan Ying gently put down the teacup and responded slowly, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness. However, I am lazy by nature and only want to be an ordinary person, unburdened by the situation. I hope Your Highness can understand."

Upon hearing this, Bei Xiu stood up with a swoosh, his eyes brimming with anger. "Pavilion Master, this prince is treating you so politely because we've met a few times before and I consider you a friend. Please don't be ungrateful."

Lan Ying had a hint of sarcasm on her face as she stood up and bowed slightly, "Your Highness, I truly feel unworthy of being called a friend."

Lan Ying turned and was about to leave: "If Your Highness has nothing else to say, then I will take my leave first."

Seeing this, Bei Xiu's eyes turned cold, and his voice was low and oppressive: "Master, do you think you can leave easily after entering this door today?"

Lan Ying remained calm and asked with a wry smile, "What does your Highness mean by this? Just because I want to be a leisurely person, does your Highness want to harm me?"

Bei Xiu folded his arms across his chest and snorted coldly, "This prince will not take your life, but I will not let you go so easily either."

Lan Ying knew in her heart that Bei Xiu was determined to have him go to the Eastern Palace, and she asked helplessly, "Your Highness, are you planning to force me to stay and force me to return to the Eastern Palace with you?"

Bei Xiu didn't answer, but simply winked at his subordinates. In an instant, the room was filled with Bei Xiu's men.

Lan Ying looked at the situation and smiled bitterly, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince of Beiyan really thinks highly of me."

Bei Xiu raised an eyebrow and said, "As long as you agree to go to the East Palace with me, I will let you go immediately."

Lan Ying smiled coldly and said firmly, "I'm afraid His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be disappointed."

With that, Lan Ying flashed and struck first. His limbs were nimble, weaving through the crowd like a ghost. Each of his moves was imbued with power. His punches were so swift and powerful they seemed to pierce the air, and his kicks were so sharp and forceful they seemed to rend the very air.

He cleverly dodged the enemy's attacks while accurately searching for the opponent's weaknesses, and once he found one, he would strike back.

At this time, in another private room, Feng Qingyue and Jun Lingyuan walked out of the room after hearing the noise.

Jun Lingyuan's eyes lit up and he touched Feng Qingyue's arm: "Hey! Qingyue, look, isn't that the friend you met last time?" Jun Lingyuan said as he pointed to Ouyang Wanqing and others downstairs.

Feng Qingyue looked in the direction Jun Lingyuan pointed, her eyes widening slightly: "Hey! What a coincidence, it really is them."

Feng Qingyue turned to Jun Lingyuan and said, "Jun Lingyuan, ask Qian San to help Lan Ying. Bei Xiu brought too many people with him. I'm worried that Lan Ying won't be able to handle it."

Jun Lingyuan nodded without hesitation: "Okay." After that, he turned around and whispered a few instructions to Qian San, who then rushed to the battlefield like a gust of wind.

Feng Qingyue hurried downstairs and ran to Ouyang Wanqing's side, panting and asking, "Wanqing, why are you here?"

When Ouyang Wanqing saw Feng Qingyue, her eyes were filled with surprise: "Qingyue, we came here to eat! Why are you here too?"

Feng Qingyue said calmly, "I'm here to eat, too. Are you guys done eating?"

Ouyang Wanqing smiled and replied, "I'm done eating."

Feng Qingyue quickly took Ouyang Wanqing's hand and walked out: "Let's go together after we finish eating."

Ouyang Wanqing stumbled as she was pulled, and said in confusion, "Hey! Hey! Qingyue, slow down, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Feng Qingyue said as she hurriedly pulled Ouyang Wanqing along, "It's okay, it's okay. I want to go to East Street to buy that delicious Linglong cake. If we go too late, it will be gone."

Ouyang Wanqing's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Oh! That's right. The Dong family's Linglong cakes always have a long queue. Let's go."

Just as Jun Lingyuan was about to leave, he heard Ling Yuxiao's teasing voice: "Young Master Jun, we meet again." Ling Yuxiao said as he looked towards the private room upstairs with a smile on his face, "You guys were the ones who caused this upstairs, weren't you?"

Jun Lingyuan frowned, a little impatient: "Mind your own business and follow Feng Qingyue and the others."

Ling Yuxiao was confused and asked hurriedly, "What's going on? I used to think Jun Lingyuan was quite gentle and refined, but why do the two times I've seen him seem so different?"

……

In the private room on the second floor, most of Bei Xiu's men had been beaten to the ground by Lan Ying and Qian San. Lan Ying and Qian San exchanged a glance, then walked out the door in unison.

But after hearing the noise, the people downstairs had already rushed upstairs and blocked the stairs.

Lan Ying and Qian San didn't hesitate at all. They smiled at each other, then jumped from the second floor and landed steadily on the first floor. Then they quickly ran out the door and soon disappeared without a trace.

……

Bei Xiu looked at his subordinate angrily: "Didn't you say it was foolproof? How did he get away?"

The subordinate was so frightened that he was shaking all over. He said tremblingly, "Your Highness, I didn't expect that someone would show up on the way, and that person's martial arts skills are extremely strong."

Bei Xiu was so angry that he paced back and forth in the room. "You didn't expect that? How could he, the Pavilion Master, come to the banquet alone without any precautions?"

The subordinate knelt down with a plop and said, "Your Highness, I know I was wrong. I will go after him right away."

Bei Xiu waved his hand impatiently: "No need. By the time you chase him out, he'll be long gone. Let's go back to the inn first and think of other ways."

The subordinate quickly responded, "Yes, Your Highness."

Ouyang Wanqing looked at Feng Qingyue, who seemed to be in a daze, and waved her hand in front of her eyes: "Qingyue, what are you thinking about?"

Feng Qingyue finally came back to her senses and asked bewilderedly, "Wanqing, what did you just say?"

Ouyang Wanqing pointed to the long line in front of the pastry shop and said, "There are so many people queuing up. Should we go?"

Feng Qingyue looked at the long line, hesitated for a moment and said, "The line is too long. Why don't we come earlier next time and buy it?"

Ouyang Wanqing nodded: "That's fine."

Feng Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief: "Then let's go back. You and Master Ling can go for a walk."

Ouyang Wanqing was a little confused, but still said, "Okay." She always felt that Feng Qingyue was a little weird today, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Ling Yuxiao knew that Feng Qingyue had taken Ouyang Wanqing away just to avoid her getting involved in or witnessing what had just happened, not because she really wanted to eat the cakes. He smiled and nodded, "Then Miss An, let's make an appointment again when you have time."

Jun Lingyuan said bluntly: "She doesn't have time." After that, he looked directly at Ling Yuxiao.

Feng Qingyue didn't say anything, and she and Jun Lingyuan hurried towards the mansion.

Ouyang Wanqing looked at their hurriedly leaving backs and asked Ling Yuxiao in confusion: "Master Ling, what happened to them? They seemed to have something urgent to do."

Ling Yuxiao smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm probably tired from coming out and want to go back home to rest..."
