“There’s no need. 1 have always been steady…”

“You fight and kill wherever you go, yet you’re saying you’re steady?!”

Ye Jingtang smiled. “I have my own discretion. Your Highness, don’t worry.”

Hearing this, Dongfang Liren didn’t say anything else.

Ye Jingtang pondered for a moment and recalled the topic just now. From Dumdum’s words, it wasn’t Dumdum’s idea to let him stay at the Roaring Dragon Pond to practice martial arts. It was very likely that Consort Yuhu had said something during pillow talk with the empress…

Miss Yuhu doesn’t look like a lesbian, but as a palace maid, she has no choice. She’s forced to scissor with the empress, and her hair is turning white from worry…

But 1 don’t know whether this is true or not.

Ye Jingtang thought for a moment and asked, “Your Highness, are you familiar with the palace maids?”

Dongfang Liren was stunned. She thought that Ye Jingtang was finally enlightened and was prepared to get a few beautiful palace maids to be maidservants. “I’m familiar with the more outstanding ones. Have you taken a fancy to a palace maid or a maidservant from my residence? 1’11 give the order and send her to you…”

Ye Jingtang shook his head. “No, I just met a palace maid recently. She doesn’t seem to like her life in the palace and worries all day…”

Dongfang Liren was slightly puzzled. Is this a gentleman who feels sorry for a palace maid who isn’t favored and wants to be the hero saving the damsel in distress?

“What is her name?”

Ye Jingtang sat a little closer and whispered, “Her name is Yuhu. Does Your Highness know her?”

H H

The outside of the carriage made pitter-patter sounds, and the inside of the carriage fell into dead silence.

Dongfang Liren’s eyes widened, and the fat-headed dragon visibly swelled. No one knew what she was thinking, but her eyes were becoming fiercer and fiercer. In the end, she raised her hand, grabbed Ye Jingtang’s collar, and pressed him against the back of the seat. Their eyes met, and hers were full of killing intent. “What do you mean? Do you want me to fulfill your wish?”

Ye Jingtang had expected that Dumdum would misunderstand him if he talked about palace maids with her.

But he didn’t expect that Dumdum would suddenly be jealous and have such a huge reaction!

And you wanted me to look for palace maids…

It was indeed a test…

Being pressed against the carriage, Ye Jingtang didn’t resist and explained seriously, “I have nothing to do with Yuhu. I’m not asking for her to go back to be my concubine. I’m just curious…”

Dongfang Liren stared into Ye Jingtang’s eyes carefully. After confirming that he wasn’t confessing his relationship with her sister, the unknown fire in her heart subsided slightly, but she still frowned. “Do you know who she is?”

Ye Jingtang looked at the bright face in front of him and said in a low voice, “She said that she’s Her Majesty’s beloved concubine and often sleeps with Her Majesty. Is this true?”

Sleeps with?

It’s the empress dowager who often sleeps with my sister…

What is this nonsense?

Dongfang Liren tilted her head slightly. After thinking for a moment, she understood what he meant. Her sister must have spouted nonsense again to deceive Ye Jingtang, who was full of chivalry…

Dongfang Liren wanted to explain that her sister didn’t like women, but on second thought… It doesn’t seem a bad thing to let Ye Jingtang misunderstand that my sister likes women…

Dongfang Liren blinked. “Yuhu is Her Majesty’s beloved. She is blessed every day. You’d better not have any ill intentions.”

Ye Jingtang had only asked out of curiosity. Hearing this, he sighed softly and said, “This kind of thing is actually very normal. I don’t mean anything… Speaking of which, Your Highness is Her Majesty’s biological sister…”

??

Dongfang Liren took a deep breath and remained silent.

Ye Jingtang raised his hand slightly. “1 was overthinking. Your Highness clearly likes men…”

I

Dongfang Liren nodded and shook her head at this. She could only press down on her chest hard and ask in a deep voice, “Where do you see that?”

Ye Jingtang thought for a moment. “Intuition.”

Dongfang Liren felt that this topic was a little strange. She moved her hand away from her collar and sat upright. The princess looked very angry. “Your talent should be used in investigating cases. What do you regard women’s preferences as? Don’t do it again.”

Ye Jingtang tidied his clothes and smiled. “Understood. It’s getting late. I’ll send Your Highness back to the prince’s estate.”

Dongfang Liren had come in her carriage. If Ye Jingtang really sent her back, he would have to make a trip there and return here. She waved his hand and said, “Go back. Come back immediately after you finish your business. Be careful.”

A moment later, in the alley…

“Chirp chirp chirp-” The fluffy bird curled up under Ye Jingtang’s sleeve and kept urging him.

Ye Jingtang used his sleeve to cover himself and the bird as he rushed through the dark alley in the rain. He only heaved a sigh of relief when he reached the porch.

The courtyard was pitch black. Only the windows of the main room were lit. He could hear the pleasant voices of women coming from inside.

“1 went to the Roaring Dragon Pavilion today. Hero Qiu seems to live on the side street beside the Black Office and lives with people from the Black Office. 1 didn’t dare to go over.”

“Who told you to run over there?”

“I was just strolling around. I’ve finished copying all the books…”

“I’m going to the Baoyuan School with your Brother Jingtang. Stay at home obediently for the next few days…”

“Sigh- Martial Mistress, you used to bring me everywhere you went. Now that you have Brother Jingtang, you like the new and hate the old… Ah! 1 was wrong…”

Ye Jingtang didn’t go into the main room to join in the fun. He began to wash up and change into clean clothes. After changing, Ye Jingtang stood at the door of the west wing and hesitated for a moment. He felt that it was indeed inappropriate to knock Little Yunli unconscious again. If they needed anything, they could talk on the way. He said, “We’re traveling tomorrow. Heroine Luo, rest early. I’m going to sleep too.”

“Just sleep. 1 was already asleep, but you woke me up…”

“Martial Mistress, you clearly weren’t asleep. All!”

The corners of Ye Jingtang’s mouth curled up into a smile.. He suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart, closed the door, sat down on the bed, and began to practice the Jade Bone Dragon Form Picture…
