When Bai Yanqing hurriedly ran back to the restaurant, she happened to run into Lai Bizhi and the others who had just finished eating and came downstairs!
"Sister, why did you come back? We have been waiting for you for a long time, but you didn't come up to eat. We went downstairs and asked the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and we found out that you ran out to buy red bean cakes!"
Lai Bizhi took the first step and ran forward. While talking to Bai Yanqing, he carefully observed her face, for fear that she would be unhappy in some way, so she kept it in her heart and refused to say it openly!
"I made my sister worried! It's my sister's fault!"
Bai Yanqing said with an apologetic smile, and there was no sign of anything strange on her face!
"I know! My sister must have sneaked out for a stroll by herself! Otherwise, why is there such an extra hairpin in her bun?"
Cai Xing had sharp eyes after all, and he immediately saw the sword hairpin stuck in Bai Yanqing's bun. Caixing has been with Bai Yanqing for many years, and not a single change in Bai Yanqing's body can escape her eyes!
"It's not easy to come to your hometown. How can I visit more and get more familiar with this place?"
Bai Yanqing smiled and joked, and there was no difference between his words!
Cai Xing smiled, looking at the hairpin on Bai Yanqing's head, and said nothing.
"The hairpin is good!"
Yun Qi stepped forward, stared at the hairpin in Bai Yanqing's bun, and said with a slight smile.
"Then thank you for your kindness!"
Bai Yanqing glanced at Yun Qi and gave a hint.
Yunqi was stunned. Obviously, he did not expect Bai Yanqing to say this.
"If Your Highness hadn't regarded me as an outsider, he wouldn't have resorted to all possible means, just for such a hairpin!"
Others might not understand what Bai Yanqing said, but Yunqi...it was obvious that he understood it! He didn't say anything and just stared at the hairpin for a while before he came back to his senses!
When Yun Qi came back to his senses, he discovered that Bai Yanqing had led Cai Xing and Lai Bizhi away long ago!
"master……"
Yuan Ziyue saw Yun Qi stunned on the spot, so he stepped forward and wanted to say something, but when he saw Yun Qi's eyes, Yuan Ziyue held back. He knew that Yun Qi didn't like others asking Tai many!
Yun Qi probably didn't expect that Bai Yanqing would find out about the "Sword Hairpin" case that he carefully planned!
That's right, it was Yun Qi who arranged this game intentionally, just to allow Bai Yanqing to successfully obtain this hairpin! He didn't tell Bai Yanqing because he knew that according to Bai Yanqing's temper, she was definitely not willing to accept this precious gift from Yun Qi!
Bai Yanqing has her own pride, and she never wants to receive other people's gifts in vain! Just like she said, Yunqi treated her as an outsider, so he went to great lengths to give this gift! And she herself regarded Yunqi as an outsider? If she really didn't treat Yun Qi as an outsider, then there would be no need for Yun Qi to go to such great lengths to give this great gift! .
In fact, both of them thought of one place! This is probably what Bai Yanqing has always felt awkward about! It's like... no matter how close they are, after all, there is still a layer of separation in their hearts... an indescribable gap!
"Collect the stars!"
"exist!"
"When you get home, will you be nervous? Are you looking forward to it? Are you...excited?"
Bai Yanqing held Cai Xing's hand tightly, walking slowly and talking to her, as if she was afraid that if her hand loosened, Cai Xing would never be seen again!
"Sister, will you leave Caixing?"
Caixing suddenly paused and asked Bai Yanqing.
Bai Yanqing was stunned, and then slowly said: "If you choose to stay in Xingyue Kingdom, I will stay with you for a while. If you choose to return to Chen Kingdom, I will definitely stay with you."
What Bai Yanqing said was the truth, she didn't use sweet words to trick Cai Xing. There is not only a gap between her and Cai Xing, but also a thousand-mile road between the two countries! Cai Xing has his own country to protect, and Bai Yanqing also has his own little family to protect! The Bai family and the Ji family who are far away in the Chen Kingdom are all Bai Yanqing's concerns!
"If possible, I also want to... go back to Chen Country! That's where... I was raised! It's where I grew up!"
"There are people I care about over there!" Caixing didn't dare to say these words! She was afraid that if she were not careful, she would cry again!
"Now that you've come, let's make peace with it. Now that we've arrived at Star-Moon Kingdom, we'll talk about everything after you enter the palace and meet your mother and sister!"
Bai Yanqing patted the back of Cai Xing's hand and comforted her. Now, they have no choice. Don't think about the future, just take it one step at a time!
The group of people walked around and finally returned to Lingyu's tea shop. There are too many people, walking on the street is too eye-catching.
After shopping around and looking around, the most important thing right now was to wait until dark for someone to pick them up and take them into the palace.
In the tea shop, a group of people each found a table and sat down. Ling Yu also bolted the door of the tea shop early and hung a wooden sign saying "Closed" outside! Everyone was sitting quietly with their own thoughts, taking a few sips of tea and snacks from time to time!
"Sister, how are your eyes? Do you want... to send a doctor to take a look?"
Seeing that Lai Bizhi's eyes were still slightly red, Bai Yanqing spoke with concern.
Lai Bizhi shook her head and said she was fine. At this critical moment, she didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble for everyone!
Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, everyone's hearts suddenly rose to their throats!
What is supposed to come will always come!
As soon as night fell, there was a gentle knock on the door outside the tea shop! Lingyu quickly walked to the door and opened it. Standing outside was Doctor Hua!
"Wenyuan!"
Mrs. Qingluan ran over first, her face full of uncontrollable anxiety.
"What did your Majesty say? What is the situation in the palace now?"
Mrs. Qingluan spoke anxiously, and she seemed to be really worried about the situation in the palace!
"Your Majesty, everything is fine! I am here just to take Emperor Xingxu back to the palace according to your Majesty's secret order!"
Doctor Hua quickly walked towards Caixing while calming Mrs. Qingluan's emotions!
"Di Ji, the minister is here to take you back to the palace!"
Doctor Hua paid a respectful salute to Cai Xing, which scared Cai Xing and hid behind Bai Yanqing in a hurry!
"Doctor Hua, don't do this! I'm a little scared!"
Caixing hid behind Bai Yanqing, only sticking out his little head, and said to Doctor Hua with a panicked expression.
"The etiquette cannot be discarded! Di Ji is now in the Star-Moon Kingdom, not the Chen Kingdom. You still have to accept some etiquette!"
Doctor Hua looked solemn, and he was not surprised by Cai Xing's reaction. But now, they are all in the Star-Moon Kingdom, and some etiquette is inevitable!
"Di Ji, please come with me!"
Doctor Hua took a step forward, trying to pull Cai Xing to let her go with him. Unexpectedly, Cai Xing hid behind Bai Yanqing and said to Doctor Hua, "I want them to come with me!"
Hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed.
What changed for Bai Yanqing and the others was that they noticed that Doctor Hua's behavior was a little unusual! What made Doctor Hua's face change was that he didn't expect that Cai Xing would reject him!
"Who are you? You are not Doctor Hua!"
Bai Yanqing snorted coldly and pulled Cai Xing back a few steps! The person in front of me looks a lot like Dr. Hua in terms of appearance, body shape, and voice! But Bai Yanqing still realized that this person was not Doctor Hua himself!
"I am Hua Wenyuan!"
The visitor didn't panic at all. He stroked his beard and spoke slowly.
"Lingyu, close the door quickly!"
Bai Yanqing hurriedly shouted. Hearing this, Ling Yu hurriedly flew to the door and closed the door tightly!
Not long after, I heard the sound of arrows ringing outside the door!
Oops, their whereabouts have been exposed! Someone wants to kill them!
Bai Yanqing's first reaction was this!
Now, they are in the Star-Moon Kingdom. These people dare to pretend to be Doctor Hua openly. Presumably, these people must be from the Star-Moon Kingdom! And this person must be an old acquaintance of Doctor Hua! Otherwise, he wouldn't pretend to be like this!
"who are you?"
Bai Yanqing asked sternly, she hid Cai Xing tightly behind her! I'm afraid that person will hurt Cai Xing again!
"Hahaha...you are such a naughty girl!"
The man laughed loudly, then reached out and took off a mask!
Sure enough, that person was not Dr. Hua!
"It's you?!"
Mrs. Qingluan screamed! His pupils were wide open, as if he had seen some incredible scene!
Everyone in the room was attracted by Mrs. Qingluan's cry! Obviously, they all understood that the person in front of them must be an old acquaintance of Mrs. Qingluan!
"Qingluan, long time no see!"
The man in front of him had a clear voice. When he looked at Mrs. Qingluan, what flashed through his eyes was not only resentment, but also a trace of... tenderness?
Mrs. Qingluan seemed to have been drained of energy. She stood dumbly, staring blankly at the middle-aged man in front of her.
"We meet again after a long separation, Qingluan, don't you want to say something to me?"
The man smiled softly and walked towards Mrs. Qingluan step by step! Every time he took a step closer, Mrs. Qingluan would subconsciously take a step back! This strange scene made everyone present tacitly realize something.
"Mrs. Qingluan!"
Bai Yanqing walked up behind Mrs. Qingluan and gently pulled her.
Perhaps because of Bai Yanqing's reminder, Mrs. Qingluan slowly came back to her senses. She turned her head and showed a grateful look at Bai Yanqing!
"Chu Aotian, stay away from me! I think it's dirty!"
Mrs. Qingluan's eyes showed disgust, and she took a few steps back, putting a long distance between herself and the middle-aged man before she stopped!
Hearing this, a trace of anger flashed across the middle-aged man's face!
"You're still the same as before! Seriously, you haven't changed at all!"
The look on the man's face was a little complicated! Call him resentful, he seems to... indeed have a fierce look in his eyes! You could say he wasn't resentful, but his eyes occasionally showed...a bit of tenderness that was reluctant to let go!
In the eyes of outsiders, there must be some unreasonable relationship between Mrs. Qingluan and this man named Chu Aotian!
"What did you do to Wenyuan? Why did you find this place? Where are the Wenyuan people?"
After Mrs. Qingluan saw that person, her gentleness suddenly faded away and turned into a woman full of violence.
"You really want to see Hua Wenyuan?"
There was a bit more jealousy in the man's eyes!
"I killed him!"
The man continued to speak viciously towards Mrs. Qingluan!
What? Did he kill Doctor Hua?
Everyone present was shocked!
"How dare you kill my master? Take your life!"
When Ling Yu heard this, he couldn't hold it back any longer! He raised his sword and stabbed the man!
That man dodged Ling Yu's sword sharply! Fly to the side!
"Your master? Hua Wenyuan? He alone is worthy of it?"
That man was full of ridicule towards Doctor Hua! Furthermore, the way he looked at Ling Yu contained irony! In his opinion, people like Hua Wenyuan can't teach any good disciples!
"Whether you deserve it or not, it's not up to you to decide!"
Lingyu raised his sword again and stabbed the man! When the man saw this, he no longer hesitated, drew his sword and charged forward!
The two of them went back and forth, fighting each other without distinction! Mrs. Qingluan on the side had a solemn expression at the moment, and her whole body was trembling! Others may think that Mrs. Qingluan is shaking with anger because of what happened to Doctor Hua! Only Bai Yanqing saw some clues!
"Mrs. Qingluan, are you sure you won't stop them?"
Bai Yanqing walked to Mrs. Qingluan's side, faintly
The ground spoke.
Mrs. Qingluan was stunned and glanced at Bai Yanqing with a complicated expression!
