Prince’s Fierce Concubine - C74
“En.” The man replied plainly.
Perhaps because he felt that Su Nanxing did not want to talk more, Lin Xuecha did not pursue the matter further.
The two of them remained silent. Lin Xuecha cleaned his hands and sat down.
Su Nanxing gave her a bowl of lotus seed soup.
Lin Xuecha did not speak much about etiquette, and casually received it, saying his thanks.
It was unknown where Su Nanxing learned this habit of pouring tea for others.
When she ate with him, she would always feel that Su Nanxing was an extremely amiable and amiable man.
He did not have the air of a high and mighty royal family on him, one that looked down on all others.
Although it didn’t seem easy to get close … Well, he just couldn’t get close.
However, once they got closer, they would realize that Su Nanxing was actually not that courteous.
In his eyes, there didn’t seem to be much difference between high and low.
Lin Xuecha scooped a mouthful of lotus seed soup into his mouth.
As soon as she put it in her mouth, she heard the man next to her ask, “How did you get back yesterday?”
Lin Xuecha swallowed the soup.
She raised her eyes to look at Su Nanxing, and did not hide anything from him, “Yesterday, it was Imperial Censor who sent the snow tea back to Marquis Anping Palace.”
“Your relationship is very good?” the man asked.
Is that all right?
Not really.
They had just reached a consensus yesterday. If it was the seventh day of the seventh month, then she would be able to get along with him. Who knows, she might become a partner of his in the future.
Lin Xuecha said, “We are still related, we might be friends in the future.”
Just like yesterday, when Li Churan crippled her, he made her board his horse carriage, but his goal was good for her.
Persuade her to stay away from the royal family.
Anyone who could say such words could not be considered an enemy.
Su Nanxing was startled, and the light in her eyes deepened, “You are willing to miss your own good name for him, and your relationship with him is only okay?”
Lin Xuecha inexplicably glanced at Su Nanxing, “Ever since the return of the snow tea to the capital, there seems to have been no such thing as Qing Ming?”
She paused, then continued, “Furthermore, there was a relationship between Snow Tea and the Imperial Censor, so His Highness should be aware of it. Helping him was just a simple matter.”
Su Nanxing knew a lot of things about her.
Thinking about it, she should also know that Li Churan had saved her before.
Su Nanxing’s clear and cold eyes became darker, “If I had to take your life to save him, would you have done the same?”
“Nope.” Lin Xuecha said in a very honest manner.
The rolling black color in Su Nanxing’s eyes slowly scattered.
However, Lin Xuecha continued, “In the future, if he and Xue Wu were to become friends, as long as Xue Wu is still alive, nothing would happen to him.”
However, she was only saying that.
Li Churan’s backing was much stronger than hers.
Who could save who …
Su Nanxing’s eyes suddenly turned layer after layer of black.
Lin Xuecha took another sip of the lotus seed soup.
She looked at him as if she had guessed his thoughts.
Snow tea knows what his highness wants to say, the Imperial Censor is outstanding, and he is good-looking, many women chase after him, but, Snow tea is only, if you want to silently make friends with him, you do not have any ulterior motives, I hope your highness can be at ease.
Of course she had nothing against him.
However, he only wanted to use his power to achieve his own goals.
That night in Grand Guanyin Temple, she had already repaid the debt of saving her life.
Right now, they did not have much relationship with each other, yet Li Churan had taken the initiative to invite them.
At present, they could be considered as collaborators, so no one owed them anything.
He could use her, and of course she could use him.
This was a very fair thing to do.
But for some reason, in front of Su Nanxing, she couldn’t say that she wanted to use Li Churan.
Perhaps, she never dared to say something too despicable in front of outsiders.
Su Nanxing was silent for a long time, then suddenly said, “Didn’t you say before that you wanted to take a good look at Capital City with this king?
Lin Xuecha was startled, and immediately replied, “Okay.”
This was the first time Lin Xuecha found out that Su Nanxing was actually out shopping in a carriage.
She didn’t understand. What kind of shop was it to be shopping in a carriage?
Besides, this carriage was running nonstop. What was there to roam around?
Lin Xuecha lifted the carriage’s curtain, and the scenery outside the carriage entered his eyes.
She frowned and looked at Su Nanxing. She asked, “Your Highness, didn’t you say that you want to take a look at Capital City?”
Su Nanxing said indifferently, “You changed your mind at the last minute. You can go shopping and wait for the future.
Hearing that he had changed his mind at the last minute, Lin Xuecha’s face darkened a little.
However, he had said that he would take her to see someone. To see who?
The horse carriage headed out of the city.
He then walked straight and stopped at the entrance of a bamboo forest.
Su Nanxing got off the carriage, Lin Xuecha opened the carriage’s curtain and followed him.
Qian Wu said something to Su Nanxing, and Su Nanxing said, “You stay.”
He glanced at Lin Xuecha, and said with a slightly cold tone of voice. “Let’s go.”
Lin Xuecha nodded.
The two of them walked into the bamboo forest, onto a small path.
I don’t know who Su Nanxing is taking her to meet.
After all, she had never heard of Su Nanxing’s outsiders living in a bamboo forest.
The sunlight was unusually bright. Through the dense bamboo leaves, bits and pieces of light scattered down.
Someone once said that there was a family in the depths of the bamboo forest.
In this patch of greenery, there was a bamboo house covered with straw that stood impressively in the depths of this bamboo forest.
Lin Xuecha stopped, she looked at Su Nanxing, who was beside her, Su Nanxing did not look at her, but spoke to her, “I will bring you to see Master, if Master asks you some strange questions, you do not need to answer.”
She nodded and said yes.
He pushed open the small wooden door and walked up the bamboo staircase.
Lin Xuecha followed behind him, thinking about what to call Su Nanxing’s master.
Su Nanxing was her master.
Su Nanxing’s master, then she should be called Grand Master?
In her previous life, her parents died early, and her family didn’t have any relatives.
Thanks to his master taking him in and learning medicine, he had never had such a troublesome relationship.
As she was thinking, the man pushed the door open.
The room was filled with the smell of alcohol, and anyone standing at the door could clearly smell it.
Lin Xuecha was astonished.’s master was actually an alcoholic …
Su Nanxing’s expression did not change as he walked in. He saw an old man in a grey blue robe with white temples lying on the table. His left foot supported his right foot, which was placed horizontally just like that.
The old man’s beard was white.
After all, he was old and his face was a little wrinkled, but his expression was extremely gentle. He looked like a very benevolent old man.
Lin Xuecha’s eyes flashed.
What he paid attention to was not the old man’s appearance, but —
His ability to lie down.
Only his upper body was lying on the table.
His legs were completely off the table, but they didn’t droop down. Instead, they remained the same as his upper body.
Moreover, from the way the old man was snoring, it was obvious that he was fast asleep.
Lin Xuecha’s eyes revealed shock. What a profound foundation.
She did not know if other people could be in this position like the old man, but she was very certain that she could not.
It might be possible, but it was definitely impossible for him to fall asleep.
Su Nanxing seemed to be deep in thought. Soon after, he called out to his master.
The old man was still sleeping soundly.
There was no movement at all.
Su Nanxing casually picked up a bottle, and it drooped past the old man’s nose.
The old man seemed to subconsciously reach out his hand to grab the wine bottle in Su Nanxing’s hand.
Su Nanxing took a step back, but the old man’s hand had already stably stuck onto the wine bottle in Su Nanxing’s hand.
That thin body of his also rose up, but his eyes never opened.
Who knew if Su Nanxing was worrying about something, and had not made any unnecessary movements all along.
The side of his face was as beautiful as a painting, but the look in his eyes was extremely indifferent. “Master, Su Nanxing brought the best plum blossom wine.”
One second ago, the old man’s eyes were still tightly shut. The next moment, he opened his eyes.
Lin Xuecha could clearly see the excitement in the old man’s eyes.
The old man turned his body, his entire body spinning in a circle in the air. Su Nanxing was forced to let go of the wine bottle and it was taken away by the old man.
The old man raised his hand and looked at the empty bottle. He was immediately infuriated. “Damn brat, where is the best plum blossom wine?”
Su Nanxing’s voice was clear and cold.
Pulling Lin Xuecha to his side, he replied, “Isn’t this Plum Blossom Wine?”
The old man was at a loss for words.
A pair of intelligent, glimmering, old eyes carefully sized up Lin Xuecha’s body from top to bottom.
Lin Xuecha lowered his head and cupped his hands.
Su Nanxing’s movements were too sudden, before she could even react, she had already made her move.
“Snow Tea greets you, Senior.”
The old man’s eyes flickered.
And seeing Lin Xuecha obediently salute, completely different from that rebellious brat Su Nanxing, she felt slightly gratified in her heart.
He threw the bottle to the side and it circled on the ground.
It did not shatter.
It was perfectly fine.
The color in Lin Xuecha’s eyes deepened.
Having lived in a nunnery for ten years, she had no chance at all to contact people in the martial arts world.
He hadn’t seen many experts either.
She only knew that there was always someone better than others and that a simple action by the old man had broadened her horizons.
He really didn’t know what kind of ability the old man had.
The old man took a step forward, bent down, and sized up Lin Xuecha’s appearance.
Lin Xuecha lowered his posture even more.
The old man suddenly laughed out loud.
He looked at Su Nanxing, and laughed slightly, “With a glance, this girl, you can tell that she is not someone easy to bully. Stinky brat, in the future, you will suffer.”
With that, he continued to laugh loudly.
Lin Xuecha, “…”
Su Nanxing’s expression was calm, her clear and cold eyes were like flowing water, other than light, there was no other emotion.
“There’s no need for Master to tell me that. I’ll help her take a look first.”
“You brat,” the old man glared at Su Nanxing angrily, then smiled mischievously as he pulled Lin Xuecha’s arm and sat down.
Lin Xuecha did not know what was going on, but he heard the old man say, “Girl, give me your hand.”
