At the moment, Su Chen remained calm, shrugged, and said with a smile: "At this time, everyone is asleep. In the middle of the night, a man and a woman alone, under the melons and plums, are you afraid of causing criticism?"
"Kekeke..."
Guan Qiyun laughed so hard that her branches trembled. She had been a little drunk because of the drink before, but now she was so drunk that she couldn't describe how touching she was. "Am I still afraid of those people's criticism?"
With that said, Guan Qiyun forced her way into the room. Her strength was not low, and Su Chen couldn't stop her at all, so he let her in.
Guan Qiyun entered the room and looked around with her eyes.
Su Chen knew that Guan Qiyun must have heard the fighting in the yard before and became a little suspicious, suspecting that there was something wrong here, otherwise she would not have suddenly come over.
At this moment, Guan Qiyun didn't find anything unusual in the room outside. She casually picked a topic and walked to the back room while chatting with Su Chen.
Arriving in the back room, Guan Qiyun first saw the messy bedding on the bed. Her eyes flashed slightly and she smiled and said: "Men are men. Even if you sleep, you can make the bed so messy. Let me help you tidy it up."
Saying that, without waiting for Su Chen to say anything, Guan Qiyun took the initiative to stretch out her snow-white slender hands and picked up the quilt.
However, there was nothing under the quilt.
Guan Qiyun was startled, and the sharpness in her eyes gradually disappeared.
She tidied Su Chen's bedding, straightened up, looked at Su Chen, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's okay, I'm leaving."
Su Chen nodded and followed Guan Qiyun out of the inner room and into the outer room.
Just as Guan Qiyun was about to open the door and go out, her body suddenly stopped.
Following Guan Qiyun's gaze, Su Chen saw a black cloth towel placed on a cabinet next to the door, which was exactly the face towel Jiang Yunlan used to cover his face just now.
Just now Jiang Yunlan was in a hurry,
Although the person hid it, he forgot to put away the face towel.
And Guan Qiyun should be able to easily tell that this black scarf does not belong to Su Chen.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became stagnant for a moment.
Guan Qiyun was silent for a long time, and Su Chen was almost waiting for her to make an attack.
However, the next moment, to Su Chen's surprise, Guan Qiyun didn't say anything. Although she kept looking at the black scarf, she finally slowly looked away, then looked at Su Chen again and said
: "Then I'll go back to sleep."
Su Chen nodded.
Guan Qiyun opened the door and left the house.
As soon as Guan Qiyun left, Jiang Yunlan immediately got out from under the bed, panting heavily: "I was scared to death. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and got under the bed in advance. But the space under the bed is too small. I
You have to use a lot of force to get in."
With that said, Jiang Yunlan picked up the black face scarf and asked doubtfully: "However, Guan Qiyun clearly saw my face scarf just now, why did she leave in the end? Didn't she have any suspicion?"
Su Chen shook his head and said nothing.
In fact, Su Chen knew that Guan Qiyun must have guessed something.
At least, from this black scarf, she could infer that there were other people in the room.
However, Guan Qiyun did not reveal the truth to her face in the end, but left.
Is this a kind of silent trust in him?
"I'll find a way to take you out of the palace after dawn."
Su Chen sighed, although he
He didn't want to take care of Jiang Yunlan, but his friendship with King He Yandan was there. Even if it was out of love, he couldn't leave King He Yandan's disciples alone.
Jiang Yunlan whispered: "No, I can leave by myself. I came with the teacher to attend the Queen Mother's birthday banquet. After the birthday banquet, the Queen Mother invited the teacher to give a lecture on alchemy in her palace, and I also went with her.
Yes, so I’m staying in the Queen Mother’s Palace tonight. Now, I just need to quietly return to the Queen Mother’s Palace.”
"Then go on your own."
Su Chen thought for a while and said.
Jiang Yunlan bit her lip, left a "thank you" so low that it was almost inaudible, then opened the door, and her figure disappeared in the dark night.
the next day.
Su Chen got up early in the morning and said goodbye to Guan Qiyun.
Guan Qiyun didn't see anything strange in her expression. She smiled and sent Su Chen to the door of the palace, and ordered her servants to prepare a carriage for Su Chen to leave the palace.
"Prepare the medicinal materials I mentioned yesterday as soon as possible, and then you can start refining the elixir for longevity."
Su Chen warned.
Guan Qiyun chuckled and nodded, and said: "I will tell the emperor to use all available power. Even if he searches all the thirteen countries of Dongzhou, he must find the medicinal materials you mentioned."
"Well, when you find it, let me know and I will refine it."
Su Chen said and prepared to leave.
"Hello……"
Guan Qiyun suddenly called out.
Su Chen stopped and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Nothing……"
Guan Qiyun pursed her lips and smiled, looked at Su Chen with meaning, and said with a pun, "Brother,
Sister trusts you very much, please don’t let me down!"
"knew."
Su Chen smiled and boarded the carriage leaving the palace.
After leaving the palace, Su Chen thought for a while and decided to go find King He Yandan first.
All in all, this was the second time Su Chen encountered Jiang Yunlan's "assassination" of Guan Qiyun. Su Chen saved Jiang Yunlan every time. Su Chen felt that he also had the right to know some of the inside stories.
At least, he wanted to find out where Jiang Yunlan and Guan Qiyun had such a big hatred.
When he came to the Imperial Capital Alchemy Guild and found Alchemy King He Yan, Su Chen recounted exactly what happened when he met Jiang Yunlan last night.
King He Yandan didn't know that Jiang Yunlan actually went to "assassinate" Guan Qiyun again last night. After hearing what Su Chen said, King He Yandan's face turned blue.
"Yunlan, didn't I tell you not to be so reckless in the future? Why did you assassinate the imperial concubine without telling me?" King He Yandan turned his head and reprimanded Jiang Yunlan with an unprecedented severity.
Jiang Yunlan said weakly: "I just want to get back the Evergreen Pill in that woman's hand..."
"Hey, why are you so stubborn? Concubine Guan bought it right away. Why do you have to take it back?" King He Yandan sighed heavily.
"I feel uncomfortable when I think that that woman might use Evergreen Pill to maintain her youthful appearance!" Jiang Yunlan choked.
Su Chen interrupted at the right time and said: "Guan Qiyun bought the Evergreen Pill not for her own youthful appearance, but for the emperor's illness."
When King He Yandan heard this, he looked suddenly enlightened and said, "Does the imperial concubine want to use the Evergreen Pill to treat the emperor's illness?"
