”It's best if you go there and don't come back.” The emperor said viciously. Did she, Shui Qinan, really think that she had the ability to tame a Divine Beast? Moreover, this divine beast had long been demonized and didn't have the slightest bit of spiritual consciousness.
After Eunuch Zhou left, the emperor no longer had the mood to let his concubine sleep in for him. He put on his clothes and started thinking about how to make Shui Qinan die and never come back.
Shui Qinan got the key and the map, but she didn't see the emperor, and coincidentally, she didn't want to see the old emperor either.
”Is His Highness the Crown Prince here?” Shui Qinan asked.
”The Crown Prince is over at the East Palace. Is the girl going to look for the Crown Prince?” Eunuch Zhou cautiously replied.
”Yes.” Shui Qinan still had some things sshe needed to ask Hou Qingyu, since the emperor knew about it already, he would not tell her if she asked the emperor.
”Is the lady going by herself or do you want me to lead the way?” Eunuch Zhou asked.
”You go and do what you need to do. I'll go myself.” Shui Qinan said indifferently, her cold eyes swept across the Eunuch Zhou and she said: ”Eunuch Zhou, you are a sensible person, I think you should know what to say, and what not to say.”
”This servant knows, this servant knows. Young lady, don't worry.” Eunuch Zhou hurriedly replied as he saw the cold clothed Shui Qinan's back that was drenched in cold sweat.
Shui Qinan looked down at the Eunuch Zhou from above and said with a smile that was not really a smile, ”Eunuch Zhou is indeed the person who stays the longest with the Emperor.”
”Yes, yes, yes.” No matter what Shui Qinan said, the Eunuch Zhou lowered his attitude and replied.
Shui Qinan headed towards the East Palace where Hou Qingyu was. Seeing that she had left, the Eunuch Zhou heaved a sigh of relief.
Hou Qingyu was flipping through ancient books in his room. When he heard that Shui Qinan had come to the palace, he guessed that Shui Qinan would come find him, so he wanted to flip through all the books related to Flaming Land first.
”What are you doing?” Shui Qinan's indifferent voice sounded out.
”You're here, have you decided to go to Flaming Land?” Although Hou Qingyu asked this, his tone was extremely certain.
”I know you're asking me, but I've already obtained the map and the key, do you have any other thoughts on Flaming Land?” Shui Qinan asked.
”This ancient book is for you. Everything you need is inside.” Are you going alone or with them? ” Hou Qingyu asked. Shui Qinan took the ancient book and flipped through it. She recorded the contents of the Flaming Land in her heart, then returned the ancient book back to Hou Qingyu and said, ”Wait until they are together, I've read the ancient book and will return it to you.”
”So fast.” Hou Qing looked at Shui Qinan in shock, then casually threw the ancient book on the desk. Shui Qinan and Hou Qingyu talked for about half an incense's time before Shui Qinan left. She already knew a lot about Flaming Land now.
Unknowingly, another half a month had passed, and this year had also come to an end.
When Shui Qinan brought Xiao You back from the street, she saw Mo Zichen.
”I've received news from Chu Er that he has successfully sat on the position of the master of the Chu family.” Mo Zichen said.
”When will he be back?” Shui Qinan asked.
