Fairy, shut up! I'm really not blondie.

"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy!"

"..."

Shouts could be heard everywhere.

Even the trees along the roadside were covered with children who came to see them off.

In their eyes.

It was only with the arrival of the Imperial Envoy that their long-standing situation of being bullied by the martial arts world and unable to hold their heads high was finally ended.

It was also the Imperial Envoy who led the people to resist the Black Current and saved all the people in the world!

Amidst the commotion.

The boy peeked out from the carriage.

Nothing was said.

Just a slight smile.

However, that was enough to elevate the atmosphere to another level.

A journey that normally takes less than three minutes took a full fifteen minutes today before we finally got out of the city gate.

Outside the city gate.

A graceful figure in purple stood under the shade of a tree.

It looks like we've been waiting for a long time.

Qin Lianshang's expression was solemn.

Although they seem to exude respect,... there seems to be something different about them?

Qin Lianshang watched as the carriage slowly approached.

My feelings are extremely complicated.

in the morning.

She took the initiative to meet with Su Qing.

I was a little unhappy when I got back.

But why?

It's been a whole morning.

Qin Lianshang understood.

She probably hoped that she could talk to the imperial envoy a little longer and spend more time with him before they parted ways.

As for the reason.

She doesn't want to delve into it further for the time being.

It could be pure gratitude, or it could be other feelings as well.

But the result was that the young man let her leave without any hesitation.

That's it.

Qin Lianshang slightly raised her back.

No problem.

rather say.

After the imperial envoy left, she was able to more easily realize her grand ambitions.

It's better that they left.

"Lord City Lord?"

Shui Lan, standing to the side, spoke up timidly.

"What?"

"The Imperial Envoy was really too kind in praising you."

Qin Lianshang nodded expressionlessly.

"I know, you've already said that."

"Gaining the approval of the Imperial Envoy is indeed very important, but we still need to guard against arrogance and impetuosity."

"..."

After a while.

She spoke again.

"Lord City Lord."

this time.

Qin Lianshang finally couldn't hold back any longer and frowned as she looked at her.

"Anything else?"

"Your Excellency is leaving, are you reluctant to see him go?"

silence.

After a short silence.

It was the somewhat flustered expression on the face of this once-dominant martial arts queen of Yunzhou.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

But Shui Lan still spoke in a serious tone.

"But your expression is conveying that very message."

“I’ve been with you since I was very young, I know that.”

My Lord Palace Master.

It's obvious they're reluctant to part with the Imperial Envoy.

Maybe...

Hey.

She smiled inwardly.

But he didn't dare say it aloud.

I have a feeling I'm going to get beaten up by the Palace Master.

soon.

The carriage that had been leaving the city came to a slow stop as it approached.

Qin Lianshang's heart skipped a beat.

The words spoken by the maid beside him just now echoed in his ears again.

The Queen couldn't help but scoff at it.

Would she really be reluctant to part with the boy who caused her plans to completely fail and left her in such a miserable state?

How can it be?

Qin Lianshang composed herself.

Her reason for coming to see him off was simply out of respect for the imperial envoy from the new city lord.

That's right.

until.

The boy's voice came from inside the carriage.

"Come up and sit down."

Qin Lianshang: "..."

She came to see them off.

How could one possibly get on a carriage with just a few words?

If someone sees us, won't they start having all sorts of wild thoughts like that girl Shui Lan?

however--

He was quite resentful.

But his body language tells a different story.

The moment Su Qing spoke, he slowly boarded the carriage.

Shui Lan happily stood guard beside the carriage.

Ugh.

The city lord still denies it.

Isn't it wonderful to see the Imperial Envoy?

Qin Lianshang bent down.

Once inside the carriage, they discovered that the boy was the only person there.

Slightly stunned.

It seemed he could tell what she was thinking.

Su Qing, comfortably leaning against the soft couch, said calmly.

"I've sent everyone else out on missions."

"Please be seated, City Lord."

Qin Lianshang: "..."

She silently chose a place furthest away from the boy.

Then we waited for the imperial envoy to speak.

Waited for a long time.

But they didn't get a chance to speak.

at last.

She couldn't help it.

"Is there anything else, Your Excellency?"

"Ok?"

Su Qing raised an eyebrow and asked in return.

"Shouldn't I be the one saying that?"

"Palace Master Qin, weren't you the one who seemed hesitant to speak just now?"

Qin Lianshang slightly widened her eyes.

and so.

Did this boy actually remember that incident?

She thought...

Queen Da Li Yi Qi Wo San Long Si Jiu (Seven) Shan Ren raised his eyes.

A pair of beautiful phoenix eyes slowly fixed on the young man in front of her.

up until now.

She still found it hard to believe that everything that happened in Yunzhou was orchestrated by this seemingly frail and handsome young man in front of her.

However, one has no choice but to believe it.

From the moment I thought the plan had failed.
