To the east of the city, there is a small restaurant with a quaint name called Han and Tang, symbolizing the country's most prosperous era - the Han and Tang dynasties.

Ye Qingzhu got up at five o'clock in the morning as usual, with a jingchai cloth skirt, no powder, but smeared on his lips, which was as red as blood, not lip gloss or lipstick, but rouge.

She has a box of red rouge.

It was given to her by Master on her eighteenth birthday.

said that when he saw the man who wanted to marry him in the future, he would apply it carefully, but Ye Qingzhu did not do it.

Every time she misses that man, she rubs it a little, and the rouge is really similar to the blood that the man shed that night.

It's just a pity...... He has been using this box of red rouge very sparingly, and he is about to run out.

Three years, more than a thousand days and nights of missing, how can a box of red rouge be carried?

Today, as usual, the small restaurant opened at six o'clock, and it was busy until three o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Qingzhu began to clean up, and the day ended here, without exception.

Three years after Li Fengnian's death, she basically spent every day like this.

Unlike Gao Changgong, who needs to practice in retreat, for Ye Qingzhu, sticking to the word and upholding the original intention is practice.

Occasionally, the small restaurant will come to some guests who are not guests.

For example, the guy who was very similar to her master when he was young and never paid for food, that was a guy who would laugh no matter what happened.

At first, Ye Qingzhu looked down on him.

Not only to look down on, but also to hate.

Hate his self-righteousness, hate that he always laughs like a fool.

And then — a lot of things happened.

Unconsciously, there were some strange feelings.

Of course, she would not admit that this is a young woman's purest affection for a young man.

Today, the small restaurant has another uninvited guest.

She is a very beautiful woman, with a powerful aura that she is very familiar with and extremely hateful.

"Qingzhu, we meet again."

This woman's name is Huang Concubine Chen.

Imperial Concubine Chen looked at Ye Qingzhu, the girl she had met three years ago, squatting in front of Li Fengnian's corpse, clenching her teeth tightly, obviously very sad, but not a single tear fell. The strong and forbearant made her still remember it vividly.

"Miss Chen, what are you doing in Jianghai?" Ye Qingzhu asked lightly.

"Originally, he came to take Lu Yu's life as a calf, but he proved his worth to me. I was looking forward to him growing up to be my father's whetstone, so I didn't kill him. Imperial Concubine Chen explained.

"It is also possible that Emperor Chen Qing will become his whetstone." Ye Qingzhu said, introduced Imperial Concubine Chen into the living room inside, and put on the tea set, "What kind of tea do you drink?" ”

"Big red robe." Imperial Concubine Chen smiled, "Qingzhu, it seems that you haven't realized how powerful my father really is, even if you give Lu Yu twenty years, the chance of him beating my father is not one in ten thousand, let alone only two years?" ”

Ye Qingzhu replied: "Emperor Chen Qing is very powerful, but he is still a mortal after all, not a real immortal. Back then, my master told me that as long as you are mortal, you can be defeated and killed. ”

"Maybe, but I really can't imagine what kind of character can defeat a man like my father. Qingzhu, to tell the truth, as the daughter of Emperor Chen Qingdi, I am both lucky and unlucky. ”

Imperial Concubine Chen sighed, "Fortunately, since I was born, my starting point has surpassed the vast majority of people in this world, and my father has set up a high mountain for me, majestic and reckless, so that I will never lack the motivation to move forward." Unfortunately, the mountain is so high that I can only look up and look at it, and I am afraid that I will never be able to approach it in my life. ”

Ye Qingzhu said lightly: "If you can't get close, then don't go." You might be able to build a mountain of your own. ”

"Build a new one? That's easier said than done. Imperial Concubine Chen sighed again.

"It's not easy. So Miss Chen, you and I are actually mortals. But that guy Lu Yu, isn't he standing on his own? ”

Ye Qingzhu pushed a cup of tea to Emperor Chen.

"Qingzhu, it seems that you admire him very much. But - is the little dirt bag also a mountain? Imperial Concubine Chen took the big red robe handed to her by Ye Qingzhu and took a shallow sip.

Ye Qingzhu said coldly: "No matter how high the mountain is, it is also piled up from small soil bags. Miss Chen, when you say this kind of thing, you really don't look like the daughter of Emperor Chen Qing, the first person in the world. ”

"Perhaps." Imperial Concubine Chen shook her head, "Qingzhu, I came to you, but I actually came to ask you for my father. It's been three years, how are you thinking about it. ”

"Miss Chen, your father just wants me to be his apprentice? Isn't it enough for him to have you inherit his mantle? Ye Qingzhu asked rhetorically.

Imperial Concubine Chen explained: "Qingzhu, that's different. My father insisted on taking you as a disciple because he felt that you were better suited to his way than I was. ”

Ye Qingzhu asked again: "What about you, don't you have a taste in your heart?" I don't believe that the dignified Miss Chen family will feel that you are inferior to me Ye Qingzhu. ”

"My father has my father's thoughts, and he has given me a lot. Otherwise, what's the difference between me and Chen Langya. Why are the children of the family inferior to the next? It's just that I'm too narrow-minded. ”

Imperial Concubine Chen looked at Ye Qingzhu with a sincere look in her eyes, "Qingzhu, you believe me, I, Imperial Concubine Chen, really don't mind, the more powerful you are, the happier I will be." Among my peers, there are really not many people who can enter the eyes of my Imperial Concubine Chen. And you Ye Qingzhu happens to be one, you really can't waste your time anymore, I don't want to be too lonely alone in the future martial arts practice. ”

"I see." Ye Qingzhu narrowed his eyes. "Imperial Concubine Chen, do you want to use my Ye Qingzhu as a whetstone?"

Imperial Concubine Chen smiled: "Qingzhu, are you lacking confidence in yourself?" As long as you are strong enough, maybe I, Imperial Concubine Chen, will turn into your Ye Qingzhu's whetstone. ”

Ye Qingzhu didn't think about it, and said directly: "Then it's good to walk and see." Imperial Concubine Chen, after you return to the capital, tell Mr. Chen for me that I, Ye Qingzhu, am Li Fengnian's apprentice. One day is, a lifetime is. As for the future, Li Fengnian lost to Emperor Chen Qingdi, which does not mean that Ye Qingzhu will lose to Emperor Chen. ”

"It seems that I ran for nothing, or maybe, Qingzhu, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away, and there will be a period in the future."

Imperial Concubine Chen arched her hand and said lightly: "I hope that after ten years and eight years, you have the qualifications to become my opponent, and I have no intention of looking down on you." But you should know very well that although you are three years younger than me, you are already two steps behind me in martial arts cultivation. ”

After Imperial Concubine Chen left, Ye Qingzhu frowned.

Three years ago, when I first met Emperor Chen, she had just entered Huajin, and Huang Fei Chen was already at the peak of Huajin.

Three years later, she has not even been able to completely enter the peak of chemical strength, and there is no way to enter the realm of Danjin, but Imperial Concubine Chen has already mellowed Danjin and achieved martial arts and sub-saint.

Could it be that she, Ye Qingzhu, really can't catch up with this woman? 》≠》≠，

Li Fengnian lost to Emperor Chen Qing.

Li Fengnian's heirs will also lose to Emperor Chen Qing's heirs?

Thinking of this, Ye Qingzhu felt irritable for no reason.

Half an hour later, at dusk, Lu Yu appeared in front of Ye Qingzhu.

"Sister Ye, what did Imperial Concubine Chen tell you?" He asked directly.
