Hearing her words, the old man cupped his hands and laughed, "This old man is quite lucky. Did this old man find this person? He came all by himself!"

As he spoke, he also smiled and took out a jade pendant that was half the size of his palm from his sleeve.

"One day, when I was out enjoying the fragrance, I accidentally dropped this piece of jade. Look, there's already half a piece missing. That day, I coincidentally dropped this piece of jade at the feet of a black-robed cultivator."

"That Taoist said that he and I are fated, so he returned the jade pendant to me and said that he would look for him if he had anything to discuss."

Hearing the black robed man's words, both of them were confused.

Xi Mengyao's face changed, but she managed to stabilise herself.

"I'll immediately get that Taoist to come over. However, that Taoist is currently cultivating and has been busy meditating in the mountains for the past few times.

The old man said as he looked at Xi Mengyao, "If Your Highness Princess has such an interest, why don't we stay here for a few days and watch the horse together when that Taoist comes?"

When Xi Mengyao heard this, she also returned to take a look at Song Chongjing. Without waiting for him to speak, she clapped her hands and praised, "That's a good idea!"

After saying that, she placed her finger on her chin and looked around.

"However, look at this courtyard of yours. I'm afraid that our prince would not like it any longer. I am rather interested. How about we have another two days to bother you?"

After she finished speaking, she turned and looked at Song Chongjing with a smile.

Their gazes met, and Song Chongjing immediately frowned, just as he was about to speak, Xi Mengyao stood up again, raised his teacup high, and toasted to the old man.

"Now that I've offered you this cup of tea, I'll take it that you've agreed."

"Esteemed wangfei, those words of yours make me feel like I've lost my life!" When the old man heard this, he immediately smiled and nodded his head.

As he spoke, he immediately raised his teacup and took a sip. Then, he turned around and ordered the servants to clean up the room.

Then, he turned to look at Song Chongjing. "Since the wangfei is here, why don't you come with his and rest in the cold house for a moment?"

After Song Chongjing heard this, he waved his hand: "It's hard to refuse a good relationship, but I still have other things to do, and have to attend to the morning assembly every day, it's rather inconvenient."

"That's true. Your highness is busy with matters, it's just that this old one has been inconsiderate. " The old man said with a smile.

His appearance made it seem as if he had received an honored guest, and he didn't seem like he was expecting any other guest at all.

Xi Mengyao stood at the side and conversed with the man as if they were on the same side. Song Chongjing watched from the side for a while, but did not say anything else. After waiting for a moment, he stood up and made an excuse saying that he was leaving.

"Yeah, it's about time. You even asked someone out to discuss some matters."

Xi Mengyao sighed, she did not move and only waved her hand: "After I see the big horse, I will return."

"My humble servant is here to bother you. If you have any inconvenience, please forgive me." Song Chongjing said in a cold tone, he did not look at Xi Mengyao.

This old man was very polite and would only come after sending people out.

After the two of them left, Xi Mengyao's face immediately turned cold. She spoke a few words to the Attendant beside her before making an excuse to take a look at her own room. Then, she turned and left as well.

The old man had still not returned from the outside. After seeing Xi Mengyao had left, he quickly returned to the house.

The moment he entered the room, the smile that he had been keeping on his face instantly disappeared. His expression also immediately turned cold. He furrowed his brows and slammed the table. He turned around and shouted, "All of you, come in!"

As soon as he finished, more than twenty men in black jumped out of the room.

A group of people kneeled before him, not daring to raise their heads in the slightest.

At this time, the old man had already forgotten his amiable appearance, his face was filled with a murderous intent. He looked at the few of them, gnashing his teeth and asking, "Who exactly brought them here? Why didn't you notice them earlier? Why didn't you stop him?! "

When those people heard this, they also revealed bitter expressions.

In the end, it wasn't their responsibility to stop these two. Actually, no one knew who the Prince Jing was or how they knew who brought them here.

Seeing that no one was talking, the old man's face darkened.

Just as he was about to explode, someone bravely stood up, "Subordinates, we really don't know why they are here. Come to think of it … It was because they had already made their move and wanted to come over to test the waters. Old master, do not be angry lest you miss any details. "

The old man calmed down when he heard this. He lowered his head and thought for a while before taking a sip from a teacup beside him. "Forget it. Even though I can't stop him, he's already here."

After saying that, he turned his head to look outside the window.

Before he could see here, he had specially prepared a room for others.

However, just by thinking about it, he could imagine that person's appearance. When he thought about how Xi Mengyao had acted so quickly, and how she looked like an ordinary family member, she couldn't help but frown. "I had long heard that Xi Mengyao was an extremely intelligent person, and now is a good opportunity!"

"As long as we kill her now, the Prince Jing who only knows how to do battle would naturally be at the mercy of the Emperor, and wouldn't pose much of a threat."

As the old man spoke, his half-closed eyes revealed a murderous look.

"Master... "What do you mean?" When the group of men in black heard this, their expressions also changed. They could not help but raise their heads to look at the old man.

Seeing this, the old man's face immediately became cold. He glared at him, then turned his head to look around. After confirming that there was no one around, he slowly raised his hand and rubbed his neck.

A trace of a savage smile slowly appeared in his pair of sinister triangular eyes.

"She barged in here herself, don't blame me for being impolite! She is a weak girl, I do not believe that she will be able to escape from my grasp! "

After he finished speaking, he threw the teacup on the ground and suddenly stood up. He turned around and walked out of the room with his hands behind his back.

Unexpectedly, when he went out, he immediately saw Xi Mengyao, who was leaning on the door of the courtyard, smiling at him.

However, there were a few traces of true love in this smile, so he didn't know.

"Wang... Esteemed wangfei, why are you here? "

After Xi Mengyao heard this, he raised his eyebrows: "Oh, I just wanted to see if you were here. I didn't expect that I would hear you lose your temper."

Hearing that, the man's face also changed, he did not know how many words he had said, and only looked at Xi Mengyao.

"Speaking of which, I don't know if it's because he's old, but his temper is always uncertain."

But Xi Mengyao acted as if she was playing a joke on him, and did not speak any proper words, and even let him know what she already knew.

Listening to her words, the old man thought for a while and made up his mind. Looking at Xi Mengyao, he finally revealed a sinister expression: "Hmph, since it's like this, don't blame me for being merciless!"
