Shangguan Wan nodded slightly, her eyes downcast as she smiled, ”Qi He has a good impression of this little eunuch beside him.”
Seventeen years old, the age of early love.
Hearing this, Qi He's cheeks flushed red. ”What are you saying, Imperial Aunt, Qi He has always been very good to the servants in the palace.”
Shangguan Wan didn't say anything, she gazed at the master and servant pair. Although one was wearing a eunuch's uniform and the other was wearing a brocade dress, they actually matched each other.
However, Luo Chen was a cultivator after all. It would be very difficult for the two of them to come to an end.
Qi He turned around and whispered to Luo Chen, ”What are you doing here?”
Luo Chen shifted his gaze from the ground to Shangguan Wan, then kneeled down and replied with a cold expression, ”This servant has come to find the empress. May the empress grant me a favor and serve in the Hall of Phoenixes.”
With this said, the two women were stunned and looked at each other in dismay.
”Why?” The first one to express her grief was Wei He. She treated him so well and followed him in everything she did. Why did he leave to join Imperial Aunt? It didn't make sense.
Shangguan Wan looked at Luo Chen who was lying on the ground in confusion. What was this little Taoist up to?
Luo Chen straightened his body and looked at her, his tone ruthless. ”Princess, you should know one thing. The higher a person goes, the lower the water flows. The empress is now deeply favored by the gods. It's better to stay by the empress's side than at Liufang Hall.”
Qi He unconsciously took a step back and looked at him in disbelief. Tears welled in his eyes, ”Do you think this princess will believe your lies?”
He was a Taoist, and a Taoist had no desires and no desires. His duty was to exterminate demons, so what future did he have now? Hehe, only a fool would believe such lies.
Shangguan Wan stood silently at the side, watching with interest.
She wasn't a stone-hearted person. She was able to understand the bitterness in Wei He's heart.
It was just that she had been acting too much in the past, and now that she saw someone else acting, she felt that it wasn't a big deal.
Luo Chen pursed his lips and smiled contemptuously, but there was impatience in his voice: ”It doesn't matter if you believe me or not, I don't plan to go back.”
He was indeed a good girl, but she was a princess after all, and she would marry someone of equal status to her, not spend her time in a situation where nothing could be given to her.
”Pah!” Qi He walked forward and slapped him, tears flowing down his face, ”You bastard!”
”As the princess said, I am not a good person. I am just a common person.” Luo Chen did not refute her words at all. It was better to suffer a long time than a short time. It was best to cut down everything as soon as possible while the situation still had room to recover.
Qi He's hands started to tremble. He wanted to fight again, but he couldn't. How did he become like this? Was this still the Luo Chen he knew? Was he still the same man who had solemnly vowed when they first met in front of the palace gate?
Had he changed, or had he changed?
”I have given my approval.” Shangguan Wan finally spoke, her expression calm.
