Chapter 104 Send-off
After that, before Zui Linglong could react, Chu Tiankuo had already swept away with a wave of his sleeve. All that could be seen was a lonely and majestic back.
“Huh, who did he think he is? Is it because he is the emperor? How could he be so arrogant?” Zui Linglong could not help but complain to herself.
Of course, Zui Linglong must not let the emperor hear her complaints. After all, he was the emperor who was above all the 10,000 people.
It was not good to make any comments about him. After all, there was no freedom of speech at that time. If anyone said such things in front of the emperor, he would definitely have his head cut off!
After Chu Tiankuo left, Zui Linglong sat down on the bed with a tea table in front of her. There was a padauk teapot and three teacups, which matched the tea table. The teapot was in the middle, the contents still hot.
Zui Linglong picked up the teapot and poured out water from it into a glass. Originally, she was going to guzzle all of it down. As soon as she drank the first mouthful, she spat it out instantly!
“Ah, it’s hot!” Zui Linglong screamed loudly, but her voice was not loud enough for anyone to hear. It just scared away the birds that stopped on the willow tree on the edge of the courtyard.
She only saw the birds screeching twice, and later, they flew off together, leaving behind two feathers that fluttered down to the ground.
The sun was shining with its usual brightness and it brought a little warmth to this world.
It was already evening now, and a bunch of fire clouds could be seen in the sky. Tomorrow would be a very sunny day!
Next day, sunlight really illuminated the entire land. However, although the sunshine spread the same warmth over the whole land, there were more enthusiastic people present today.
Just in front of the Buddhist temple of the imperial palace, two people were entering the temple. Some people hid by the side and watched the fun. And some people seemed to be there to send them off. They stood in front of the temple and watched the two people entering.
It was Nanmen Yi and Tang Xia who were entering, but wasn’t the man, who was just coming out, the emperor Chu Tiankuo?
In fact, it was rare for the emperor Chu Tiankuo to send anyone off. With this, Tang Xia and Nanmen Yi could already show off to passers-by.
But the two of them were not interested in this. After all, showing off only made them tired, and others would be bothered when they heard this.
Although it would bring some fun to their boring leisure time, there would be also many enemies made because of this. It would be better to have a good sleep than making a bunch of enemies.
And now it seemed that the relationship between Tang Xia and the emperor need no longer be shown off.
Chu Tiankuo looked at Nanmen Yi coldly as if he was looking at the Millennium enemies. His eyes were full of murderous intent as if he couldn’t wait to swallow him in the next second.
Chu Tiankuo’s anger made Nanmen Yi confused, “Excuse me, dear emperor, is there something wrong with my face?”
Nanmen Yi looked at Chu Tiankuo curiously, but Chu Tiankuo did not say anything. He just looked at Nanmen Yi, as if he would compete with Nanmen Yi on aspects of the eyes and temperament.
“What is the problem with this emperor? He looks as if I will grab his wife!” Nanmen Yi thought. This had been witnessed by Tang Xia, who was at the side!
“Emm, dear emperor, would you not be willing to let me in?”
Tang Xia spoke out and broke the stares between Chu Tiankuo and Nanmen Yi. Chu Tiankuo’s eyes then moved from Nanmen Yi’s face to Tang Xia’s face.
However, when Chu Tiankuo wanted to refute subconsciously, Tang Xia suddenly came close to him and whispered in his ear.
“Oh, what are you bothered about? Although he is very handsome, my affections remain unchanged! And as a girl, I will definitely be reserved. But I will not throw it all away!”
After Tang Xia finished speaking, she felt that Chu Tiankuo’s glare reappearing! She continued quickly, “The visitor is a guest. Although he is handsome, I will not abandon you in this regard. Don’t worry!”
After that, Tang Xia clipped the cuffs of Chu Tiantian. She gently pulled his sleeves and he turned around with a dignified movement. She said to Chu Tiankuo, “Do you think that I am the kind of girl who always abandons the old for the new?”
Chu Tiankuo, who finally got the opportunity to speak, denied this immediately,
“What did you say? Do you think I am so narrow-minded! And do you think anyone will like you, someone who has such a poor figure?”
“I’m giving you a choice. You’d better follow me! It will be good if you can get anywhere with your poor figure. Go ahead!”
But even though Chu Tiankuo seemed generous, he still felt jealous, and thought,
“If Nanmen Yi really does something to you, he needs to be careful as I will smash hm, smother him, and cut all his flesh into small pieces.”
“I will subject him to all the punishment that exists in the palace, which will let him think that death might be preferable!”
Chu Tiankuo’s face was still majestic looking, due to his good self control.
“Lvelvelve!” Hearing what Chu Tiankuo said, Tang Xia felt a little bit angry. She made a face at Chu Tiankuo, snorted and brought Nanmen Yi into the temple.
In fact, 12 two-hour periods in ancient times passed by very fast, time simply flew by.
The day had passed in a trancelike manner. Originally, Chu Tiankuo thought that he would feel relieved during this period of time without Tang Xia’s “harassment”.
But unexpectedly, in the early morning of the next day, an uninvited guest came together wih the sunshine.
The person who came was Zui Linglong! At this time she was still dressed in white. If it was not for her long hair that was of another color, people would think that she was imitating a ghost! Or a spirit!
When Chu Tiankuo saw Zui Linglong walking in his direction, his brows could not help but furrow!
“Why is she here? I dont’ have anything to say to her!”Chu Tian thought, and then heard a report outside the window.
“Dear emperor, Zui Linglong is here to see you!”
The sharp voice of the eunuch echoed through the deep hall, and rang in Chu Tiankuo’s ears. Hearing that, his eyebrows couldn’t help but crease even more. They were already furrowed. Now they looked no different from a tightly secured knot.
“Let her in!” Chu Tiankuo said with a low voice, after quite a while.
In fact, although Chu Tiankuo was from a generation of emperors, he still thought about Tang Xia occasionally.
“Shit! If it wasn’t that the temple wouldn’t let me in, I can go in and chat with Tang Xia. Why do I have stay here to stare and worry about these piles of torn books and posts?”
Chu Tiankuo thought secretly. While thinking about it, he was still annoyed as to why Tang Xia had to go into the Buddhist temple!
This was when Zui Linglong walked into the hall. She looked up and saw Chu Tiankuo sitting in the middle of the hall with a stack of books in front of him.
“Dear emperor!”Zui Linglong had an awkward look in her eyes, and spoke strangely to Chu Tiankuo.
“Stand up!” Chu Tiankuo responded, visibly upset!
After talking for a long time about unnecessary topics, Zui Linglong finally began to state her business.
“Dear emperor, a man and a woman have stayed in a room for such a long time. Do you think there could any form of adultery between them?”
Giving a hint of her thoughts to Chu Tiankuo, Zui Linglong’s eyes turned.
“I don’t care how much the emperor trusts Tang Xia, but I want to create some trouble. Why should Tang Xia always have such a smooth and comfortable life?”
“Oh, Zui Linglong, what do you mean? Are you trying to say… ”
As the current emperor, Chu Tiankuo already knew what Zui Linglong wanted to say when she first appeared. But now he didn’t point it out immediately. Anyway, he was also trying to coax her into saying something else, so he just played along with her like this!
“Even if you trust Tang Xia, Nanmen Yi has… ”
Again, Zui Linglong said this to Chu Tiankuo, and ingeniously omitted the most important part without saying it out loud.
Although Zui Linglong thought about this, she was very anxious, “Hey, why is this emperor so hard to convince! Hurry up, hurry up! Only when you give me a decree , then I can do something to Tang Xia!”
Zui Linglong had her own thinking, but Chu Tiankuo was ahead of her as he had read the minds of countless people. How could he not know what Zui Linglong was thinking about?
“I met Nanmen Yi a few days ago. I think he looks really good and is very smart. He is a person that can be cultivated!”
Chu Tiankuo cleverly led the topic. He continued to try and find a reason to let Zui Linglong leave quickly! After all, Chu Tiankuo didn’t want to see her any more!
But Zui Linglong seemed to be a piece of dogskin plaster who was hopelessly entangled. Finally she could not stand it anymore and yelled at the emperor,
“Don’t you know what will happen if a man and a woman are together in the same room? I reminded you kindly to be careful of him. But you still favor Tang Xia. Ok, be careful, or you will be betrayed!”
After saying this, Zui Linglong sighed and continued, “I’d better go first. But I only hope that our dear emperor will not become an object of ridicule!”
