Soon, after the thirty lashes, the guard walked out of the house panting, and said, "Lord Qi, the whipping is over."

"Well, let's go down", Nangong Yu's still cold voice came from inside the room, but there seemed to be a trace of impatience in that voice.

The three of Hongying, Autumn Leaves and Dongxue, who had been kneeling on the ground, saw the guards leaving, and struggled to get up, but the pain in their backs made it really difficult for them to move, especially the most serious injuries in Autumn Leaves, she had no internal strength to protect her body, just an ordinary weak woman, who could support until the end of the whipping, which was already the greatest patience.

After Shui Lianyue waited for the guards to leave, she walked over in two steps, frowned tightly, looked at the pale and haggard faces of the three people, and her heart was dripping blood like a knife, she endured choking and whispered: "Come, let's go back to Taoranju."

Red Tassel and Winter Snow trembled and stood up under the support of Shui Lianyue, while Autumn Leaf just raised her head and smiled at Shui Lianyue before fainting.

On the way back to Tao Ranju, under the refraction of the sun, there were shadows of four people supporting each other, they walked very slowly and carefully, for fear of tearing the wound on their back.

Outside the door of Ting Lanxuan, Nangong Yu stood with his hands in his hands, wearing a dark color tight-fitting robe to wrap his body, showing the aura of a king, but at this moment, there was a faint worry between his eyebrows, and his black eyes stared at the back in the distance, as if he muttered: "You say, is there something wrong with what this king did today?"

Qing Yuan stood behind Nangong Yu, his eyes were half narrowed, looking at the four shadows, he couldn't help but sigh lightly: "Prince, it's not that Qing Yu is talkative, what the prince did today, I'm just afraid that I owe something proper, just now, Qing Yuan listened to the princess's words, and it seems that he has given the steps, but the prince was still angry at the time, and he couldn't allow the princess to be presumptuous, now that I think about it, I'm afraid that the princess's hatred for the princess will only increase and not decrease."

"So what? There are people in the world who hate this king, but there is not much more than her."

Qing Yuan lowered his head slightly, and stopped talking, he knew the prince's temperament best, even if he did something wrong, he would not admit it, but he could say that the white was black, at this moment, it was useless for him to say more.

"Are you trying to say that she hates this king, and no matter what, she will never give the secret of the treasure of the Golden Spirit Palace to this king again, right?" Half-ringing, Nangong Yu turned his head to look at Qing Yuan and asked.

"If the prince knows, why should he do this"?

Nangong Yu snorted lightly, no longer looked at Qingyu, turned his head and said in a deep voice: "Hmph, if this king wants this world, how can he rely on just one woman?" Even if he has the country in the future, this king will not be at ease."

"However, the whereabouts of the 100,000 quintals of rice grain are still unknown, the land of the Demon Palace has not been found so far, and the people of the Demon Palace are also mysterious, and the matter of raising rice and grain is becoming more and more tense at the moment, Nangong Ling sent troops to guard the import and export of various official grains, I'm afraid, time is running out", Qing Yuan slowly raised his head, his face was full of worry, and said anxiously.

Nangong Yu frowned slightly, the worry in his black eyes was gone, there was a faint chill, and the evil qi around his body surrounded him again, under the scorching sun, the atmosphere around him was a little terrifying.

"Even if the king treats her well, what can he do? Don't forget, she conspired with Nangong Ling, just afraid that this king is not careful, she will find out something, the current situation is critical, you must not take it lightly, the matter of 100,000 quintals of rice grain, you still need to do everything you can to investigate, in addition, this king has written a letter to Xiao Tian, the vassal king of Luchang County, you immediately send someone to send it quickly, and let the master of the Mingtang Hall also rush there, if Xiao Tian agrees to the secret collection of grain by the king in Luchang County, let the master of the Mingtang Hall circulate in Luchang County."

Qing Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then asked with his eyebrows: "What does the prince mean, I am afraid that Xiao Tian will agree on the surface and in private."

Nangong Yu nodded, and said in a cold voice: "Although this person has a brotherly relationship with this king, but, after all, this king and he have not seen him for many years, and the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, and the matter of requisitioning grain can be regarded as a bold temptation, if he has a different heart with this king, it is also good to let the master of Mingtang cut off the brotherhood with Xiao Tian for this king."

"Qing Yuan understands", Qing Yuan nodded slightly, no longer speaking, he understands what the prince thinks in his heart, and he will never be ruthless until the last resort, no matter to anyone, except for the Empress Dowager Chu and Nangong Ling, the prince's hatred for the two of them is enough to destroy the world.

In other words, the four of Shui Lianyue returned to Tao Ranju, she immediately took out the Yuxue Feng Powder Paste from the bottom of the box and smeared it for the three of them, the last time the master came, he brought her another bottle, and now, it came in handy, she looked at the delicate white porcelain bottle in her hand, and smiled sarcastically.

Although Qiu Ye was smeared with Yuxue Feng San, she was still unconscious, her breath was disordered, Shui Lianyue clearly knew that since Nangong Yu had beaten the three of them, she would never ask for a doctor for these three maids again, so she sat cross-legged on the bed, helped Qiu Ye to sit firmly, and used internal force to open up the blood veins for her, and after a while, her forehead was drenched with sweat, and Qiu Ye's breath gradually reconciled, and her face was bloody.

Because when they went to Ting Lanxuan, the four of them didn't even eat, and now, the three of them are lying on the bed to recuperate, and the cooking thing falls on Shui Lianyue, Hongying wanted to get up to help, but she drank it and obediently went back to the bed.

In the past, when she was on a mission, anything could happen, survival in the wild, the fight of trapped beasts, mistresses, housewives, undercover, what had she not done?

It's just that the small kitchen was sorted out yesterday, except for tea, rice, oil, salt and noodles, there is nothing else, I wanted to go out to buy today, but I didn't want such a thing to happen.

In desperation, Shui Lianyue had no choice but to make some light noodles, which was originally a simple meal that could not be simpler to cook noodles, but in front of Dongxue, she was stunned, where are the boiled noodles, they are clearly vermicelli, the roots are crystal clear, the entrance is smooth, and it is more delicious than any delicacy she has ever eaten.

Just after everyone finished eating the noodles, Steward He led the two handsome women to Tao Ranju, Shui Lianyue looked at the two women, her steps were light, her eyes were sharp, and her demeanor was moderate, she couldn't help frowning slightly, it seemed that Nangong Yu was really unwilling to give up.

"Princess Qiyu, the prince ordered that Tao Ranju's maidservants should not serve properly, so he personally selected two clever maids in the palace to serve the princess", Steward He said respectfully with his head down.

Shui Lianyue nodded, ignoring Steward He, staring at the two women with phoenix eyes, and only after half a sound did she lightly open her lips and ask lightly, "What are your names?"

The two women were only sixteen or seventeen years old, and when they heard the princess's question, they slowly stepped forward and saluted, and said in a measured manner: "Back to the princess, slave maid Qinglan, slave maid Qingyu."

"Well, since you are serving here in this princess, then, you must abide by the rules of this princess, without the permission of this princess, you must not step into the main house half a step, without the permission of this princess, you must not step out of Tao Ranju half a step without permission, although the princess's maidservants are not served properly, but this princess is also used to them to serve, and in the future, with the permission of this princess, you can serve closely, otherwise, don't blame this princess for not thinking about the princess's affection and punish you, you, can you understand"? Shui Lianyue said a lot, and finally looked at the two women indifferently, and said with a touch of stunning majesty between her words.

Although the two women have been trained, they can't help but be a little at a loss for Shui Lianyue's words, obviously an unfavored princess, but now she has such a big shelf.

Steward He's body beside him stiffened slightly, and when he saw that Qinglan and Qingyu didn't react at all, he realized that he was out of shape, and hurriedly covered up for the two, poked the backs of the two hard, and shouted: "Didn't you hear what the princess said?" Don't you hurry up and receive your order, do you want to be punished?"
