Baby, don't be afraid, I'll accompany you to the heavens and the seas!

"You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you!"

Dark Arrow Bro's hand trembled as he pointed at Qianqian Luo, who was babbling incessantly, unable to think of a single word to retaliate.

"What did I do wrong? I was just telling the truth! I didn't dig up your ancestral graves, why are you so angry?!"

Qianqian slapped away Dark Arrow Brother's gesturing hand, turned around with great disdain, and farted at him!

Crash!!!

A loud fart lifted the curtain of Young Master Luo's buttocks, and the hot, forceful fart blew sharply into Dark Arrow Brother's mouth, which was about to spew feces!

"Aaaaaah!! Aaaaah!"

Enraged, Dark Arrow Bro took a big bite of the stinky fart that smelled of chives, then collapsed to the ground in a daze, raging with impotence!

Upon seeing this, the other men in black quickly covered their noses and retreated, not daring to take another step forward.

After Qianqianluo farted, she felt refreshed in all four limbs, her heart calmed down, and her headache disappeared!

Inside the clock tower of the Imperial Garden, the sounds of string and wind instruments filled the air, and graceful dancers waved their thin spring dresses, swaying their slender waists.

The imperial maids stood on either side of the Crown Prince and the Emperor, gently fanning a large vat of ice with palm-leaf fans painted with gold and dragons.

The icy air, fanned by the imperial maids, cooled the heat inside the bell tower!

The emperor clapped his hands and exclaimed with delight as he ate the chilled lychees that the imperial maid had peeled and fed to him: "Hahaha, Yu'er, look!"

"Who knew this young master Luo had such a side? Tsk tsk tsk~ He's truly quite interesting!!"

"A lackey who can't be brought to the table, no matter how funny he is, is nothing but a cheap trick to attract attention!"

Qing Tingyu stared straight ahead at the scriptures, completely disregarding Qianqianluo's life or death, and made sarcastic remarks!

Qing Tingmo smacked his lips for a while, ignoring his son's anger, and continued to add.

"Is that so? This palace is exactly lacking someone like Young Master Luo who knows how to attract attention! If, if Yu'er doesn't mind, how about gifting him to Father Emperor?!"

His Highness the Crown Prince looked up coldly, his face darkening as he glared at Qing Tingmo.

"Things I've used can only be given away after I'm dead. If Father Emperor is so fond of this dog of a servant, I'll carry his corpse to Tingmo Palace in no time, shall I?!"

The moment His Highness the Crown Prince uttered those treasonous words, the heat in the bell tower seemed to freeze instantly, and the atmosphere plummeted to zero.

The dancing maids and imperial servants knelt on the ground in fear and trembling: "Your Majesty, please forgive us! Your Highness, please calm your anger!!"

"Alright, you may all leave. His Highness the Crown Prince is just joking with me!" The Emperor waved his hand helplessly, dismissing the group of dancing girls and imperial maids.

"Yes! May Your Majesty be well! May His Highness the Crown Prince be well!"

Qianqian heard a very familiar sound of kneeling in greeting. Following the sound, she looked up and saw the Emperor and Crown Prince sitting leisurely in the Bell Tower.

Grand Minister Lu seemed to sense something, but still pretended not to know, and asked in a panic, "Where is our Emperor?!"

"Where is His Highness the Crown Prince?!"

"Waaaaah~ This old minister is ashamed!! Waaaaah~ I failed to protect the Emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Waaah, how can I face my ancestors? How can I face the common people of this world?"

Grand Secretary Lu seemed to be expressing his true feelings, and he collapsed on the ground, rolling around and crying bitterly with his face covered, his cries moving heaven and earth!

Lu Weiqian held Princess Zhi's hand. He had just climbed out of the silt pool when he heard his father's wailing and crying.

Qianqian stood awkwardly in place, ignoring the cries of the man pretending to be the Minister, and simply tied all the belts of the men in black together.

She strung together a group of men in black, whom she had beaten into submission, like a string of candied hawthorns, then stood at the very front, shouting arrogantly:

"Keep your heads in your hands! All of you, keep your heads in your hands!"

"Kneel down with your hands on your head! Kneel down and cover your head!!"

A group of students participating in the martial arts examination clutched their aching chests and reluctantly squatted down, burying their heads in their hands.

Qianqian landed in front of a string of candied hawthorns and strutted around arrogantly. Then, she grabbed the knife handle and beat up the disobedient young man in black.

She was secretly thrilled: Who would understand! My friends~! One day I time-traveled and ended up living in ancient times!!

Didn't you hear me tell you to put your hands on your head and squat down?

Qianqian squatted down in front of the unruly Dark Arrow Brother and kicked his knees, which he never knelt on, to the ground.

"How dare you! Do you know that my father and mother are the emperor's cousins, born of the same mother!"

*Smack!* Qianqian swung a large slap in the backhand.

"You dare to impersonate a close relative of the Emperor?! I wouldn't be worthy of the Emperor's favor if I didn't teach you a lesson!!"

*Snap!* *Squeak!*

"Ahhh! I'll squat! I'll squat! Stop hitting me!" After having one of his arms dislocated by hand, Qing Tingmu finally begged for mercy.

Seeing this, the men in black who were crouching with their heads in their hands dared not laugh or gasp. They all obediently crouched with their heads in their hands, not daring to raise their heads and reveal their disdainful eyes.

"Luo'er, you, you are so amazing!" Lu Weiqian scurried forward, praising Qianqian Luo with an admiring look on his face.

Qianqian scratched her head awkwardly, muttering to herself:

You're way more impressive than me! Knowing about this assassination attempt beforehand, you've managed to keep a straight face until now!

When I get back to the 21st century, I'm going to give Young Master Lu an Oscar!

"Weiqian! Weiqian! Waaaaah!"

"Please help us! Waaaaah!"

Upon hearing Lu Weiqian's voice, the men in black, who were skewered like candied hawthorns, immediately spoke up to attract the attention of the young master Lu.

Qianqianluo naturally had to take on this role as well. She expressed her surprise and asked with a puzzled look, "Young Master Lu, do you know them?!"

"More than just acquaintances?! They're practically intimate acquaintances!!" Prince Qing Tingyu, who had rushed to the Imperial Garden, spoke in a deep, resonant voice as he rode in his sedan chair.

Emperor Qingtingmo on the clock tower also clapped and cheered, leaping down the stairs and laughing loudly.

"Your Highness, what a rare guest! When did you arrive in the capital? You didn't even inform me, so I could have made proper preparations!"

"Our Emperor is a very busy man; how could I, a prince far away in a remote region, dare to bother him?!"

Qing Tingyu wore a crimson-black python robe and a jade crown. His face was delicate and handsome, but his thin lips were pale and weak, making him look extremely frail.

"Alright! Alright! You're so frail, yet you're out strolling around! It really worries me!"

Qing Tingmo took off his outer robe, helped Qing Tingyu up, and draped the heavy outer robe, adorned with many beautiful jade and jewels, over Qing Tingyu's shoulders.

"Since you've finally returned to the capital, accompany me to Tingmo Palace for a good chat. I'll leave this place to Yu'er and the others!"

Qing Tingmo picked up his delicate younger brother and left the Imperial Garden with Minister Lu.

Qing Tingzhi shrank behind Lu Weiqian in great fear, not daring to peek out to look at Qing Tingyu.

Qianqianluo smiled smugly as she stared intently at the departing figures of the two men who were hugging and embracing.

"What are you staring at?!"

Having been freed from his restraints by Lu Weiqian, Qing Tingmu approached Qian Qianluo and impatiently asked a question.

"I'm doing what a scholar should do. You're still young, it's normal that you don't know these things!!!"
