Immortal Supreme Sovereign - C74
A clear bamboo fragrance accompanied by rouge wafted out from the bamboo scenery. The contradictory combination of elegance and fragrance seemed very suitable here. Whether it was the lack of the elegant bamboo fragrance or the rich rouge fragrance, the bamboo scenery would lose a bit of its vitality.
He followed Han Xiao into a large hall with a bamboo view of a city. Before he even had the chance to lament over the fact that this building was surrounded by bamboo forests, he saw a few red-clothed women dressed in revealing clothing coming towards him.
“Main house.” The woman respectfully said, but Xiao Ke Er could see a trace of fear from beneath the respect in her eyes. “Fear!” As she thought of this word, Xiao Ke’er felt that her brain must have gone bad. Xiao Ke Er silently thought as she gazed at the girls.
“Han Xiao, you really brought us to a good place. Why don’t you go back to the palace today?” After seeing those girls, Xiao Moke’s eyes lit up as he grabbed Han Xiao’s shoulders and said.
“I never planned on returning to the palace tonight. You guys clean up the bamboo garden and bring Ke’er there later.” Han Xiao said to the lady in front of him.
“Yes, main family. Then we will take our leave first.” The little girl glanced at Xiao Ke Er and said, then she turned to leave.
“Wait, you’re called Little Girl, right?” Seeing the cute girl’s back, Han Xiao felt a sense of familiarity, and asked in puzzlement.
Hearing Han Xiao call out his name, a trace of happiness flashed across the lady’s eyes. She slowly turned around and respectfully said, “Yes, this servant is the lady in question.”
Staring at the cute girl for a while, Han Xiao said with a smile in his eyes, “Her hand is soft and gentle, her skin is smooth and creamy, her collar is smooth, her teeth are like a calabash and her head is like a moth. It’s true that she’s a peerless beauty. No wonder elder cousin Jianfeng mentioned you to me several times.”
“In the main house, this servant only has a bit of beauty, but in terms of looks, this young lady beside the peerless beauty is the one.” She gently bowed and said with a faint smile. That smile was like a cool breeze that blew across her mind.
“Lady, if you have the slightest bit of beauty, then I don’t think the world has the word ‘beautiful’ for you.” The gentleness in her eyes caused Xiao Ke Er to feel extremely unhappy.
He used all his strength to pinch Han Xiao’s arm and said unhappily, “Han Xiao, I don’t think there’s anything fun about this, come out and have a look with me.”
“What you said, Xiao Ke Er, isn’t right. I think it’s very good, so don’t ruin the mood.” Xiao Mo Ke said with a mischievous smile.
Seeing the smile on Xiao Mo Ke’s face, Xiao Ke Er couldn’t help but be anxious. She was just about to say something when Han Xiao pulled her hand. Seeing Han Xiao shake his head at her, she became even more annoyed.
“Miss, I heard that a few Devil Shadow Sect members have been coming here to find you every day for the past few days?” Han Xiao turned his head and asked.
Hearing Han Xiao ask about the Devil Shadow Sect people, the expression on their faces changed, “Yes, every night they come. Each time they are accompanied by their servants, Qingmei, Cui Ying, and Mei Er.”
“Mm, then how did you know they were from the Devil Shadow Sect?” Han Xiao nodded and asked.
Last night, they were drunk and insisted on taking the slave’s body as redemption. At that time, they joked about how you guys wanted to take the slave’s body as redemption, and at that time, the one who looked the most powerful directly slammed the table and said that they were people of the Devil Shadow Sect. I was afraid that the servant wouldn’t believe it and took out the token out. As the cute girl spoke, she took out a black triangular command medallion from her bosom and handed it over to Han Xiao.
Once he received the command medallion, Han Xiao felt a trace of earth attribute source energy undulations, he flipped his hand and saw the words “Devil Shadow Sect Inner Disciple” carved in large golden characters on the back of the command medallion. He then flipped the command medallion over and handed it over to Xiao Moke.
“Xiao Moke, come take a look.” Han Xiao said indifferently.
Xiao Mo took the token Han Xiao handed him, looked at it carefully, then handed it to Han Xiao and said, “It is indeed the Demonic Shadow Sect’s token, however, why would those people send their tokens to the Yun Ming Empire?”
“Who knows?” The corner of Han Xiao’s mouth slightly curled up as he said this, but when he saw that the little girl was still looking at him expectantly … Han Xiao released Xiao Ke Er’s hand, walked forward, and gently caressed the little girl’s hair as he said, “The little girl and the others should be here tonight. I hope that you can help me get some words out of their mouths.”
Hearing Han Xiao’s gentle voice, the cute girl raised her head towards Han Xiao’s smiling eyes and nodded, “Rest assured master, I will.”
“Then I’ll leave this token with you. I’ll go to the bamboo garden with Ke’er and the others first. When they come in the evening, you can call someone to notify me.” Han Xiao gently said.
“Yes, this servant obeys.” After saying so, the little girl turned around and left with the others.
He then called over the head of the first city’s Bamboo Scene and had a few words with him before bringing Xiao Ke Er and Xiao Mo Ke to the bamboo garden. Along the way, Xiao Ke Er was so depressed that she ignored Han Xiao, causing Han Xiao to feel extremely helpless.
The bamboo garden was located in the westernmost area of the bamboo garden, and was a small independent courtyard. The courtyard was filled with green bamboo, and the small emerald green building of the second floor was hidden in the bamboo forest, as if it was one with the bamboo forest. When the bamboo garden was first opened, Han Xiao had his people build this bamboo garden in the open area of the backyard, just in case he had to stay in the bamboo garden for a night.
After entering the bamboo garden, Xiao Ke Er angrily sat at the table within the courtyard. When she thought of Han Xiao’s gentleness towards her, and his attitude towards her back then, she felt a strand of bitterness in her heart.
Seeing Xiao Ke Er still sulking, Han Xiao couldn’t help but feel a headache as he helplessly walked up and said: “Ke Er, we’ve been together for more than half a year, yet you still don’t understand my personality?”
“Hmph, who knows? You men just can’t walk when they see beautiful girls. Back then, you even solemnly swore that you only had one Xuan`er in your heart. How long has it been since Xuan`er left and you’ve already been flirting with other women.” Xiao Ke Er said angrily.
“Xiao Ke Er, you can’t say that. Han Xiao isn’t that kind of person. I think he just wants to use that lovely lady to lure the Devil Shadow Sect out for him. The reason why he would appear in the Yun Ming Empire is because of that.” Although he normally acted very carefree, but since he was young, he could tell what Han Xiao’s goal was with a glance.
Hearing Xiao Moke’s words, Xiao Ke’er looked at Han Xiao in disbelief. “Is it really as he said?”
“Yes.” Han Xiao nodded.
Seeing that Han Xiao happily admitted that the soreness in Xiao Ke Er’s heart had disappeared, her gaze was still filled with complicated emotions as she looked at Han Xiao. Thinking of how Han Xiao treated her with such gentleness, she didn’t know what to feel until this moment, when she realized that she actually didn’t know much about Han Xiao, or perhaps she hadn’t truly understood Han Xiao until now.
“If you guys want to go to the Devil Shadow Sect, then go. This morning, in order to lure the fire to the Pearl Palace, I spent a lot of energy. I’ll go rest first.” As Xiao Ke Er spoke, she walked towards the bamboo building, but her gaze towards Han Xiao contained a trace of undetectable disappointment.
“Alas, Xiao Ke Er has been protected by the Dean since she was young, so she naturally doesn’t understand the unfathomable nature of the human heart, nor does she understand that acting is a necessity at times like this.” Xiao Mo Ke said as he placed his hand on Han Xiao’s shoulder.
“I’m fine. Shawmak will accompany me tonight to watch the show.” Han Xiao said with a faint smile.
“Watching a show?” Shao Moke asked doubtfully.
“Right, it’s to watch a show.” Han Xiao said with a smile.
Night came quietly. Under the night sky, the city was not as quiet as it was during the day. As soon as night fell, over ten men could not stand the loneliness anymore and stepped into the city. The bawd in front of the city greeted all the guests with a smile.
Leaning on a pillar on the second floor, Han Xiao indifferently looked down at the people below, his eyes ice-cold. Perhaps the current him was the real him.
After waiting for a while, there was a clamor at the door. Han Xiao saw four young men walk in together, and when the man at the front came in he shouted, “Old Madam, how are your preparations?”
“Oh, the four gongzis are here again. This lady and the others have been waiting for you for a long time. Is it still the old room?” The old procuress said with a smile.
“Naturally, it’s still the old room. Prepare some food and wine for us, we don’t want anyone to disturb us.” Cheng Kang said as he led the three of them up the stairs to the second floor.
As for the old procuress, she raised her head and nodded towards Han Xiao on the second floor as they were walking up the stairs.
Knowing that these people were the ones he was waiting for, Han Xiao faintly smiled and entered the room behind him. Just as he closed the door, the few men outside walked past his door.
After the men entered the room, Han Xiao and Xiao Moke walked out of the room and looked at the son of the Minister of the Left, Zuo Jie. Anger appeared on their faces as they waved their fan and headed downstairs.
“Whap.”
“Who is this? How dare you slam into me? Hey, Seventh Prince, why is it you?” Is the collision painful? ” Zuo Jie felt that someone had hit him and was about to get angry, but when he saw that it was Han Xiao, he immediately tried to curry favor with him.
“Hmph, Zuo Jie, you really have the heart to come here.” Ever since Han Xiangtian said he could wear the Crown Prince’s uniform, Zuo Jie had often followed his father, Zuo You, into the palace to curry favor with him, but he treated Zuo Jie with an indifferent attitude.
Hearing the anger in Han Xiao’s words, Zuo Jie’s face broke out in a sweat as he hurriedly said, “Seventh Prince, I was just here to relax, Seventh Prince, did you not think well of me coming down from upstairs?”
“Hmph. It’s only some common and mediocre powder. The only ones that caught my eye were a few unknown kids who took it away. Truly despicable.” Han Xiao said as he hit the wall.
Seeing the anger in Han Xiao’s eyes, Zuo Jie felt it was time to show off. He immediately said with an angry expression, “You actually dare to steal Seventh Prince’s woman. Tell me who, and I’ll take my men to cripple them.”
“They are the people from the innermost room of the second floor. They are not weak so I didn’t bring anyone with me so I ended up suffering this loss. Since you sent them here today, then go teach them a lesson. If anything happens, just leave it to me.” Han Xiao raised his head and said.
Zuo Jie felt that his courage was even greater now, seeing Han Xiao say this. He bowed to Han Xiao and said, “Don’t worry, Seventh Prince, this lowly one will definitely let those people know who in the Imperial City is unoffendable.” With that, he waved his hand and led the servants behind him to the furthest room on the second floor.
