Your Majesty, Please Stop!

Chapter 234: Meeting Su Miaojin Again

The atmosphere in the room was somewhat awkward.

Shui Qingliu was still surprised by Shidi's sudden attack, and his methods were extremely strange. She couldn't quite understand why the Yuan Chen Palace would be shaken and her body completely out of control.

The bamboo pieces in the opponent's hand seemed to possess a peculiar magic, guiding her to go forward and catch the "sword" with her bare hands!

This junior seemed to be one major realm lower than her, which was quite unusual!

Xin Zhuo also fell into the supernatural power of "Guiding the Soul Plant to Catch the Blade." In fact, this was a martial art similar to the technique of "bewitchment." It used weapons as a guide, sound as an aid, and condensed a trace of True Qi. It swiftly disturbed the consciousness and Primordial Spirit Palace of others, catching them off guard.

Those with a firm mind or a higher realm would probably not be affected, but ordinary people or those who were unprepared would definitely be defeated!

Quite interesting.

Looking at Shui Qingliu, he asked, "What did Shijie want to ask just now?"

"...Forget it, it won't affect Shidi's cultivation."

Shui Qingliu turned and left. She was actually very curious about the "Sunflower Manual." The concept of "dominating the world and being unrivaled" in it, although too domineering and unrealistic, still had an indescribable allure. It wasn't just her who thought so, many others did too.

But to come in and immediately give me a sword, we're still not that familiar.

"Take care, Shijie!"

Xin Zhuo closed the door, put on his clothes, and went to sleep. He reviewed the two supernatural powers in his mind a few more times. He felt... this thing was quite sinister.

...

The next morning, the incident at the "Good Fortune Pavilion" last night had caused a stir. The elders and the hidden super divine disciples didn't have much reaction, but the ordinary third-generation disciples had already started studying the "Sunflower Manual" and the "Lingbo Micro Steps."

There were even quite a few disciples who were willing to castrate themselves and give it a try. For those obsessed with martial arts, it was really hard to explain.

"Smack!"

"As a senior sister, you indulged your junior brother's mischief. Do you know you're in the wrong? If I'm not here in the future, you orphans will have no one to care for you. Senior sister doesn't have the demeanor of a senior sister!"

"Disciple knows I'm wrong!"

In the small courtyard, Shui Qingliu knelt on the ground, accepting her master's punishment. Whip after whip, her clothes were already tattered, bloodstains scattered, but her back remained straight, as if she willingly accepted the punishment.

Zhu Gejun, Bao'er, and the other five disciples stood trembling on the side.

Xin Zhuo had also changed into fresh clothes and stood by the door, secretly taking a glance. He felt a bit awkward. No wonder he ran out last night and Shui Qingliu insisted on stopping him. His mother's rules were really...

He didn't even know how to advise her.

Fortunately, after three more lashes, his mother finally stopped and looked over. "Are you ready to go out?"

Xin Zhuo had no choice but to walk out, sneering, "Going out to meet someone!"

Ji Jiawei's eyes flickered with a strange light as he casually threw a silver note worth thirty thousand taels. "Have fun!"

"Thank you, Mother!"

Xin Zhuo's heart was burning as he reached out and accepted it, then headed straight down the mountain.

Today, Su Miaojin was coming!

...

In the capital city of Andu, outside the Chao Sheng Gate in the southern part of the city, by the Spring Flower River, there were ten miles of swaying willows. The early autumn wind carried the prosperity of the capital and the coolness of the river, intoxicating the passersby.

Although it was still morning, there were already many well-dressed ladies and young ladies strolling along the riverbank, accompanied by maids and servants, enjoying the scenery.

On the side of the official road, the carriages were sparse and moving slowly. Perhaps after arriving in the capital city, there was no need to rush anymore.

Xin Zhuo stood alone by the roadside, waiting for almost half an hour. His eyes were strained, and there were too many carriages passing by. He didn't know which one was Su Miaojin's carriage.

This world lacked real-time communication methods. He didn't even know if Su Miaojin had arrived.

He simply sat down on the riverbank nearby.

"Prince, you seem to be in a good mood today!"

A clear and pleasant voice suddenly came from the side.

Xin Zhuo looked towards the person and saw a petite and delicate girl, wearing a pink long shirt. She looked very charming in the sunlight, and he vaguely felt that he had seen her before, but couldn't remember.

The girl smiled and bowed, saying, "I am Ling Junyao, the granddaughter of the Chief of the Cexuan Bureau. We met in the forbidden area of Jiuluan Mountain last time."

Xin Zhuo suddenly remembered and smiled, saying, "So it's Miss Ling, what a coincidence!"

The officials of the Six Bureaus include the Chief, the Deputy Chiefs of the Left and Right Bureaus, the Chief Assessors, the Chief Scribes, the Chief Clerks, the Chief Investigators, the Chief Attendants, the Chief Jailers, and the Chief Administrators.

As the granddaughter of the Chief of the Cexuan Bureau, this girl could be considered as a top-ranking noble.

In fact, people in the capital and ordinary practitioners would be terrified of the Six Bureaus, but Xin Zhuo, as the son of the Jiang family, didn't feel much about it and even thought it was ordinary.

"Yes." Ling Junyao smiled, revealing a pair of beautiful tiger teeth. She felt a little embarrassed as she fiddled with her sleeves and said, "Since the prince is alone, why not accompany me for a stroll?"

Xin Zhuo glanced at the official road in the distance. He didn't want to refuse the girl's invitation to go for a walk, but he still had important matters to attend to. He shook his head and said, "I still have something to do, I'm sorry!"

"It's alright! I won't disturb the prince."

Ling Junyao bowed again, turned around, blushing, and hurriedly left.

Several women in brocade dresses came forward from a distance, their eyes widened. "Junyao, why did you come back? Doesn't that prince dislike you at all?"

Ling Junyao shook her head in embarrassment. "Don't mention it, it's so embarrassing!"

One of the women chuckled and covered her mouth. "What's so embarrassing? The news of the prince breaking off the engagement with the Princess of Nanli has already spread these days. This time, with the presence of the Qin Kingdom's Grand Princess at the Fengtian Tower, I'm afraid Jiang Yuqing will still shine!"

She is beautiful, comes from a prestigious family, and has good talent. Your grandfather intends to betroth you to him, and the daughters of the General of the Shence Army, the daughter of the Minister of War, and the daughter of the General of the Palace Front Army are also interested..."

Ling Junyao stomped her foot. "Whether it works out or not, why did my parents ask me to actively provoke him? It's so embarrassing!"

The woman was about to say something else when she suddenly looked towards Xin Zhuo's direction. "Huh? That prince has been taken away!"

Indeed, Xin Zhuo had been taken away, by seven old soldiers wearing tattered armor, exuding a strong blood qi, and with "dead faces" from Nanli.

However, he didn't mind at all. Instead, a smile appeared on his face. Su Miaojin had arrived.

After walking along the riverbank for three or four miles, they arrived at a pavilion. Next to it was a luxurious carriage pulled by four strong horses. Dong Ling and three clever maids stood beside it, their eyes turning and staring at him.

The pavilion was covered by white curtains.

The seven old soldiers suddenly stopped.

Xin Zhuo looked at the empty carriage when the curtain was opened, then looked towards the pavilion. His heartbeat slightly accelerated. After a brief pause, he took a step forward, lifted the curtain, and walked in.

Before he could see the situation inside clearly, a soft but overbearing stream of True Qi struck his chest.

Instinctively, he leaned back, and then his waist was held by a pair of slender hands. A familiar fragrance rushed towards him.

When he looked up, he met a pair of clean and clear beautiful eyes without any impurities.

Her three thousand strands of black hair were tied up in the same snake bun he had once combed for her. There was a water-flowing flower hairpin on her forehead, and her cheeks were as fresh as new lychees. Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, and her nose and lips were like cherry blossoms. She wore a white silk dress that hugged her slender waist. A beautiful curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Su Miaojin!

Su Miaojin was Su Miaojin. She possessed the virtues, beauty, and reliability that no other girl had. She had her own elegance and temperament, which made people feel comfortable even if she didn't do anything. No one could compare to her in this aspect.

At least, that's what Xin Zhuo thought.

However, the current posture...

Should I be shy or angry at this moment?

Xin Zhuo was a little confused!

He suddenly noticed a dagger on the stone platform beside him. He picked it up and put it against his neck, with a resolute expression that kept people at a distance.
