If she did not go looking for Xue Wuhen, Xue Wuhen would come looking for her as well. He might as well take the initiative to come knocking on her door.

Chu Shiyu whispered into Yu Wuyou's ear and left the inn with a sneer.

Yu Wuyou shook his head, looking at her back as she left and sighed, ”Women are truly terrifying!”

The sky was still dark. Xue Wuhen had brought a large number of imperial guards to the Ministry of Rites. The entire courtyard had been thrown into chaos, but there was no trace of Luo Qing.

Just as he was about to send a team to search, he saw Master Chu appear outside the door.

The moment Xue Wuhen saw her, he closed his eyes in relief!

”Is Lady Luo Qing alright? ”I just so happened to send someone to find you. As long as you're back, I'm afraid that the Ministry of Rites is no longer safe. Lady Luo Qing should stay in the Imperial Palace. It just so happens that Imperial Grandmother misses Lady Luo Qing.”

Xue Wuhen only used his Royal Grandmother as a reason because he was afraid that she would reject. He never thought that Master Chu would quickly come up with a good word for her!

Master Chu had stayed behind, using the reason that he had never seen the Blessing Assembly as a reason. Although this logic was a bit far-fetched, staying behind in the open was still better than sneaking around.

So no matter how concerned Xue Wu Hen was, he had no reason to let her leave Xue Lan.

She lived in an uninhabited palace. Aside from accompanying the old grand imperial concubine, she spent most of her time studying the imperial palace's map routes, as well as the situation in the imperial court and the imperial court in Xuelan.

After a few days of peace, Chu Shiyu called for a pen and ink, and the man and woman who painted the mural came out.

He even imitated the scene of men and women merrily singing and making fun of each other, causing the maid who brought the tea to run out the door in fright.

He thought to himself, ”How could this Lady Luo Qing be so shameless as to draw such a shameless portrait?”

Very soon, this matter reached Xue Wuhen's ears, because she was a guest bestowed by the Emperor and treated him with respect in the Imperial Palace.

Since they were guests invited by the crown prince and the grand imperial concubine, they paid particular attention to etiquette.

Xue Wuhen came to Luo Qing's palace. He did not have the courage to step in several times, he was afraid that he would be disappointed when he saw a different Luo Qing.

If royal father knew, he would definitely punish her. However, in the recent years, Xue Feiyang rarely visited the imperial harem, and at most, he would just visit the grand imperial concubine before leaving.

Xue Wuhen paused outside the hall, and the sound of something being broken could be heard from inside.

As he walked into the main hall, he saw Luo Qing wiping the ink off the paper. After drying her hands, an unsightly painting appeared.

He had wanted to ask what had happened, but she had simply knocked over the ink.

”Luo Qing ~”

After hearing the voice, Chu Shiyu turned around and saw Xue Wuhen standing awkwardly behind him with a stiff face.

”Your Highness, why have you come here, and why haven't you allowed anyone to report to you? ”Looking at my hands, I'm afraid I won't be able to bow.”

Xue Wuhen coughed lightly and looked at her ink-stained arm. He then slowly walked to the stool and sat down.

He felt that he should get to know Luo Qing again. Now that she had the Song of the Phoenix, she didn't want to leave the capital, and now she was using painting to defile the imperial harem. Other than wanting to climb the dragon and cling to the phoenix, he couldn't think of Luo Qing's purpose.

Luo Qing's expression did not change, as if nothing had happened. She continued to wipe away the paintings.

Xue Wuhen could not help but open his mouth, ”Lady Luo Qing, ever since I've seen you, my body has been full of pride, disdain for power, and I'm also very smart. Why would I covet the harem?”

”What?”

Did Chu Shiyu hear it, and think that she had made these paintings to seduce Snowfly?
