"Your majesty." Just as Qin Lingmo wanted to bow, he was stopped by the young emperor. "You're excused, father. Please let him suffer."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine, but please forgive me for all that happened because of me."

"Don't say it like that, Uncle. I believe in you." Furthermore, Celestial Master Arcanum has already explained the entire situation to me. It's really too vicious! " The little Emperor clenched his fists and a trace of malice flashed in his eyes.

"Your majesty, right now, we have to announce this matter as soon as possible. Otherwise, it'll be even harder to convince the people." Xiao Luo took a step forward and cupped his hands.

"Zhen also wants to get rid of the suspicion of our father-in-law as soon as possible, but …" Ni Yu slightly sighed and knitted his brows. There was no need to mention the fact that the report on the impeachment of him had never been broken. It was just that Qin Lingmo had done the right thing. The impeachment of him was all in vain, and Ni Yu could completely disregard it. However, there was evidence regarding the impeachment process. There were also many citizens of the White Peony City. How could they laugh about it?

Qin Lingmo lowered his head and placed his hand on his forehead. With a calm voice, he said, "Your Majesty, this subject wishes to seek an official position."

The little Emperor was startled and was slightly surprised. "What official position do you wish to ask for?"

"Military Advisor's toast."

"This is clearly a promotion!" Without waiting for Ni Yu to say anything, Jin Xiao shouted out, "The Military Advisor's Sacrifice is just a small staff officer in the military camp, from a fifth rank, what are you doing?"

Qin Lingmo ignored his good friend and instead knelt in front of Ni Yu as he folded his hands on his forehead. He respectfully said, "This subject humbly requests that the emperor depose this subject's phase and lower it down to the Military Advisor's wine offering for you to move to the northern military camp."

Ni Yu was startled and stretched out his hand to help her up. However, when he met Qin Lingmo's serious and resolute gaze, his movements paused for a moment before he retracted his hand. He clenched his fists and quickly turned his head away, his face full of resentment and shame. He knew that his father had been wronged, but his power was still insufficient. He could not protect his father. Qin Lingmo was aware of this fact as well. He had taken the initiative to request for Zuo Dong so that they could resolve the conflict.

"Sorry, my dear husband." After a moment, he gritted his teeth and answered.

"This official is willing to sacrifice his life for the Northern Tang Dynasty. This official also has another purpose in requesting to go to the northern military camp. The current intelligence report indicated that it was very likely that spies from other races had infiltrated Bai Dai City. Furthermore, Xiangbei is the most important place in our army, and we have been in contact with Lan Jin the most. This subject wishes to investigate. "

Qin Lingmo's voice was clear and organized. Ni Yu quickly calmed down as well. His eyes flickered as he bent his finger to press it against his teeth. He knew that Qin Lingmo's suggestion was the most suitable. Not only would it temporarily stop those people from talking, it would also be able to investigate the military intelligence.

He let out a long breath, turned his head, and bowed solemnly to Qin Lingmo as well. "Thank you, my dear father."

Jin Xiao sighed lightly. He gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.

The little Emperor helped Qin Lingmo up and asked for his opinion on tomorrow's announcement. At this moment, Qin Lingmo was in a bit of a daze. When he mentioned the proposal to move to the military camp, Hu Ying flashed through his mind. At this moment, he missed her even more.

After tonight, they would be thousands of miles apart …

That day had been waiting for a very long time, but Hu Ying had yet to see Ling Mo return. As for Yu Mu, she followed the sect head's orders and stayed at the inn.

Seeing the night falling and the stars densely covering the sky, the person waiting had not come back yet. Originally, business was bustling at this time, but Hu Ying wasn't in the mood to make calculations. She let Dou'er run around inside while she stood outside the store, tiptoeing around.

"If I had known earlier, I would have followed him in no matter what …" "Why aren't you here yet …" Hu Ying muttered under her breath before she stomped her foot, intending to sneak into the palace.

"This won't do. If you were to suddenly run in and be exposed, it will implicate the prime minister." The sound of a curtain of rain came from behind him as he reached out to grab the back of Hu Ying's collar.

"I'll be very careful!"

"I don't know where the mastermind is. What if he sneaks into the palace and discovers you as a general instead, and says that Qin Shixiong is in the company of a monster? What if he wreaks havoc in this world?"

Hu Ying wanted to argue but swallowed her words back down. Of course, she understood the stakes involved. It was also because she understood the reasoning behind the argument that she didn't follow Qin Lingmo and the others into the palace. Right now, Qin Lingmo had to be extremely careful not to reveal anything. She also had to be careful not to let anyone see through her and grab onto her tail.

Yu Mu comforted her, "You don't have to worry about Qin Xiang. His Majesty is not an unconscious ruler. Furthermore, the grand master is here too. No one will be able to harm Qin Xiang."

However, Hu Ying did not become happy after hearing his words. Instead, she frowned even more. She lightly pressed her hand on her chest and softly said, "You must not have liked anyone, so you do not understand the feelings of care and concern I have for you." And I always feel so flustered that I have to see him. "

"A lover?" He turned his head away and looked at the brightly lit street in front of him, where the merchants were selling their goods. A white-haired couple was helping each other into the alley.

"I indeed do not have the experience of a lover, but Sect Master does. "I don't know what other people's love is like, at least Sect Master …" A shallow pain appeared between Yu Mu's brows. "Love is very deep, and your injuries are very severe."

Ah!" Sect Master even likes people?! " Hu Ying's eyes instantly opened wide in shock. A spark of interest was dancing in the depths of her eyes as she asked, "Who is it? Who is it?

Before Yu Mu could react, Zhu Xiaoxi swooped down from the clouds of the moon and stars, jumping right in front of Hu Ying and rolling on the ground.

Zhu Xiaoxi's appearance was too sudden, almost causing the curtain of rain to pull out her sword. Hu Ying picked up Zhu Xiaoxi's wings and shook them vigorously. The dizzy Zhu Xiaoxi burped and exhaled a few puffs of dust as she muttered, "There are so many stars ah! Little Xi just crashed into the sea of stars, the stars …" "Ugh …"

"Wake up, or I'll make the Magpie Soup."

Hu Ying joked and reprimanded Zhu Xiaoxi, waking her up. She pounced on Ying Hu, and her snot and tears rolled down her cheeks, "Not good, not good …" The Prime Minister is in trouble! "

"What's wrong!" "What's going on?!" When Hu Ying heard this, she hurriedly grabbed Zhu Xiaoxi and shouted sternly, "Quickly tell me!"

Zhu Xiaoxi stuck out her tongue, coughing for a long time without being able to utter a coherent word. Just as Hu Ying was anxious to tear Zhu Xiaoxi apart, three cloaked men walked out from a secluded side door on the side of the street. They wore hoods, and their faces were hidden from the light and shadows. They came running to the Wangyou Inn.

"It's me …" The man who was walking in front leaned close to Hu Ying and gently lifted his hood, revealing a handsome and elegant face.

"Ling Mo!" Hu Ying exclaimed in a low voice. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but Qin Lingmo held out his hand to stop her. At this moment, the inn was already bustling with customers. In order to not attract attention, Hu Ying led them through the side door. After they entered the inner court, the three of them put down their hoods.

"Master." As soon as Yu Mu saw Xiao Luo, she stepped forward and bowed.

"How is it?" Hu Ying was anxious to know the result. She gripped Qin Lingmo's hand tightly with an anxious expression on her face.

Qin Lingmo paused slightly as a bitter smile appeared on his face. He stared into Hu Ying's eyes and slowly said, "Listen to me. I'm leaving the capital."

At first, Hu Ying didn't understand what Qin Lingmo meant by that. However, Qin Lingmo repeated himself. She anxiously retorted, "Why?! The little Emperor's decision?! I want to enter the palace! "

"Wait!" Qin Lingmo quickly stopped Hu Ying and wrapped his arms around her waist. He buried his chin in her neck and gently caressed her neck in a comforting manner, "It's not the emperor's will, it's my own will."

"Why?! Are you crazy? You have been possessed! " With a glare, Hu Ying stretched her hand into her sleeve and took out a talisman. Qin Lingmo smiled bitterly and held Hu Ying's hand, saying, "Listen to me. Hu Ying, don't be agitated."

Although Jin Xiao didn't care much about what he said, he still felt a pang in his heart when he saw that his good friend was so close to the girl he liked. He then strolled to the other side of the inner courtyard under the white peach tree. With his hands behind his back, he looked at the shade of the tree above him.

"Lord Jin doesn't seem too happy." Xiao Luo's voice came from behind him. There was no hint of mockery or emotion in the faint smile.

Jin Xiao didn't like these men from the Celestial Sect of Wonders, so he just smiled and didn't say anything.

"If Lord Jin wants to eliminate this unpleasantness, I can help you …"

"What is it? Sect Master Xiao, you're still stuffing your teeth in when you're eating? Jin Xiao knew his tone was a bit harsh. He was already a bit depressed, but he didn't pretend to please others. "Did anyone say you were being overly cautious?" It was the same for cultivators. You're afraid that it's going to become a memory? "

These words were indeed impolite, but Jin Xiao wasn't in the mood to feign a smile in front of Xiao Luo. He was still a bit unhappy when he saw his good friend with the girl he liked. It was fine that he didn't see her, but he was still a bit angry when he saw how intimate he was with her.

Jin Xiao sat down on a stone chair under the tree. He then picked up a pitcher of wine and poured himself a glass of wine. The cool and refreshing feeling in his mouth also eased up his mood. He was too lazy to greet Xiao Luo. In any case, he had no connections with the sect.

Xiao Luo was startled. A hint of confusion and disappointment flashed across his face. He slowly turned his head, seeming to be at a loss as he looked around. His hand lightly pressed against his forehead, and the shadow between his brows gradually deepened.

"Forget the word, cover up the front." he murmured.

The night breeze brought with it a strong fragrance of flowers. The fragrance of the orchids lingered in the air for a long time. It was like a embroidered silk robe covering the night sky. Xiao Luo was a bit dizzy. He lowered his head and extended his hand to support the white peach tree. He chanted the Forgetfulness Spell again, but the scent only grew stronger.

The light and shadow in front of his eyes shook, and the stone on his forehead suddenly turned red and lit up with a wisp of fire.

"Xiao Luo, come here."

In the long corridor, an old Daoist priest walked over and greeted the young Daoist boy who was holding a bamboo scroll. He wore a short brown robe made of black cloth and a small purple bamboo crown. Even though he was still young, his movements were still calm and steady.

"Master." The young Daoist bowed deeply and respectfully towards the old Daoist.

"Come, Lian Xi, come here." The white-haired old Daoist patted the little girl beside him. She wore a Daoist robe that was azure in color, and had a very adorable hairstyle. Between her eyebrows, there was a small plum blossom. She seemed very bashful, but her black eyes sized Xiao Luo up without any concealment.

"In the future, all of you must cultivate together and get along well."

"Yes, Master." Little Shiloh bowed earnestly. The several bundles of bamboo slips in his hands fell to the ground with a clatter.

He quickly squatted down and picked it up. A small white hand picked up a bamboo scroll and passed it to him. Lian Xi Zi sweetly smiled, revealing her two canines. "You're so stupid."

The youth felt a misty rain falling on his face for no reason. He then thought of two lines of poetry: "The Nine Autumn's Dew of Rain is here, and she will be the one to open the Thousand Peak."

From then on, he firmly remembered this girl with the jade green complexion and his master's request to get along well with her.

"Xiao Luo!" Let's go fishing! "

"There's still some quiet training in the afternoon, no, master will scold me."

"Alright, let's go!"

"Wait! "Wait …"

In the tranquility of the school, a youth carrying a scripture of morality was dragged out by a girl, leaving behind two figures that gradually walked further and further away on a tall cinnabar wall. The rain was like a mist of lumps of jade-like flowers against their unwieldy time.

"..." Sect Master! "
