It was just playing chess and chatting with Feng Chaoge, but as a result, her dao heart has been hard to calm down until now.
“I’m infatuated and in love with a man?”
“How outrageous!”
Sikong Lanyue was angry in her heart.
At the same time there was something vaguely strange.
Feng Chaoge did not seem to be the same as before.
Not so cold and calculating, more smoldering, even her tone of speech has become different.
It feels as if …… she is much softer?
Knock knock knock knock.
At this moment, the door of the room was knocked.
Sikong Lanyue sat up straight, “Come in.”
The door to the room opened and Zhan Qingchen walked in, “Disciple came to see Master.”
Sikong Lanyue said, “What do you want from me?”
Zhan Qingchen asked, “I heard that Master has gone to Weiyang Capital, is it because of Su Shi’s matter?”
Sikong Lanyue nodded, “That’s right.”
Su Shi was now not only Shengzi of the Demonic path, but also Duke Linlang, an important official in the palace.
If she wanted the other party to come to the Land of the Great Clouds, she had to inform Feng Chaoge.
Zhan Qingchen said with an expectant expression, “Then what did the empress say?”
“She said ……”
Sikong Lanyue’s face was not quite natural, “Ahem, she said there is no problem.”
Originally, she was moved for the sake of talent.
But when she thought of what Feng Chaoge said, she felt uncomfortable, as if she had impure intentions towards Su Shi.
“Now that my intentions have been conveyed, whether he wants to come or not is his own decision, I cannot force him too much.”
“Alright.”
Zhan Qingchen was a little lost.
Seeing this, Sikong Lanyue’s brows frowned slightly, “Qingchen, you don’t really like Su Shi, do you?”
“Ah?”
Zhan Qingchen froze for a moment, her hands fumbling, “How, how is it possible?!”
Sikong Lanyue shook her head, “You are worrying more and more about Su Shi, as soon as I mention his name, your heart beats faster, your breathing is interrupted, and even your dao heart is slightly shaken.”
“It can’t be true that you have fallen for that demon guy, just like Feng Chaoge said?”
Zhan Qingchen forced a smile and said, “Master thinks too much, I just feel grateful for Su Shi’s kindness in saving my life, and at the same time admire his talent.”
“Is that so?”
Sikong Lanyue stared suspiciously.
Although she felt that something was wrong, she did not understand what “like” meant, nor did she know how a person in love would behave.
Naturally, she couldn’t judge the relationship between the two.
The only thing she could be sure of was that Zhan Qingchen didn’t hate Su Shi.
“It’s better if you do.”
Sikong Lanyue reminded, “You must always remember that the love between a man and a woman is a stomach-piercing poison. The red world will cloud your dao heart, destroy your faith, and even bring your immortal path to an end.”
Zhan Qingchen nodded and said, “I know, Master.”
Sikong Fallen Moon nodded and said, “You may leave.”
“Yes.”
Zhan Qingchen bowed and withdrew from the room.
Closing the door to the room, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Spitting out her tongue, she secretly said, “Almost, almost discovered by Master!”
Had Sikong Lanyue known of the relationship between the two of them, it is likely that Su Shi would not have been allowed to ascend Tian Ji Pavilion Mountain Gate for the rest of his life!
“It’s been so long since I’ve seen that guy, I wonder if he misses me?”
Zhan Qingchen sighed and turned around to walk down the mountain.
When she returned to the Chief Disciple’s residence, she had just pushed open the door to her room when she saw Xiaoqing running over very enthusiastically, “Chief, there’s big news!”
Zhan Qingchen said curiously, “What news are you so excited about?”
Xiaoqing said, “There was a Saxin Kingdom in the Western Oasis that announced its surrender to Linlang a few days ago, and has become a vassal state of Linlang.”
“That’s all?”
Zhan Qingchen said amusedly, “Since when did you become concerned with political affairs?”
Xiaoqing said mysteriously, “The thing is that this has something to do with Su Shi.”
Zhan Qingchen was stunned, “What do you mean by that?”
Xiaoqing didn’t beat around the bush and said, “Su Shi and the princess of Saxin Kingdom have married and become the king’s son-in-law!”
“What are you saying?!”
Zhan Qingchen was struck by lightning and stood in place like a statue.
Xiaoqing said to her, “It is said that for the sake of the princess, Su Shi chose to endure and was caught in a heavy siege facing an army of 100,000 men!”
“If Huben’s army hadn’t arrived in time, it’s likely that the consequences would have been unthinkable!”
“What a sincere and heartfelt love.”
Xiaoqing couldn’t help but shake her head and sigh.
Zhan Qingchen bit her lip, her eyes sad.
Sincere love?
She had her heart set on Su Shi, but he went to the West to make love with another woman?
This made her heart sour for a moment.
“But I can’t judge from just one side of the story”
“Maybe Su Shi has his own circumstances.. I still have to ask him directly.”
Before everything was clear, Zhan Qingchen didn’t want to jump to conclusions.
Xiaoqing said proudly, “How about it, is this news useful enough?”
Zhan Qingchen nodded, “Thank you for telling me.”
Xiaoqing smiled and said, “You are too kind.”
Zhan Qingchen said indifferently, “Then you will be punished with a half-year salary fine.”
Xiaoqing: “????”
The air was silent for a long time.
Xiaoqing carefully reminded, “Chief, my salary for this year has already been fined.”
Zhan Qingduan said, “Then this is for next year.”
“Next year is also no more.”

Youzhou Southern Border.
In the Rakshasa Palace, Yun Qiluo looked at Shenxiu, who was kneeling in front of her, and said coldly, “You’re saying that Shengzi was taken away by the imperial people?”
Shenxiu led the way, “It was Major General Wei Su, who also brought 30,000 black-armored soldiers with him.”
Yun Qiluo’s eyes flashed coldly.
When Su Shi first said he was going to the Western Region, she herself didn’t care much about it.
After all, with his status, who would dare to mess around in the oasis countries?
But she never thought so many things would happen?
“Where did this princess of Saxin Kingdom appear from?”
Yun Qiluo’s eyebrows shot up.
This person was truly light-handed in every occasion.
The number of women he had made love to was almost too many to count on her fingers!
“Wei Su who brought Su Shi must have been ordered by Feng Chaoge.”
“What exactly does that woman want?”
Yun Qiluo suddenly felt an inexplicable crisis.
###
Weiyang Capital.
News of what happened at the parade soon spread.
Duke Su’s great name once again resounded throughout the Capital.
The body of a Nascent Soul Realm, could comprehend the Golden Dharma Body, and beat a strong man from the Spirit Severing Realm to a pulp.
The opponent even made a sneak attack, but was unable to defeat Su Shi.
In the end, he was annihilated by the Holy Empress herself.
Everyone knew that the Holy Empress had not taken a hit personally in years!
Moreover, Su Shi used his sword as a brush to write poems on the ground.
The poem “Black clouds destroy the city” once again swept through the “literary circle” in Kyoto.
The poem was hailed as a treasure by literati and writers.
Su Shi, who was in the center of the whirlpool, was now soaking in her bedroom jade pool, looking at Feng Chaoge with a serious face.
“Your Majesty, are you sure you don’t need me to scrub your bath?”
