Chapter 20

Chu family mansion, from the head of the family and the ancestor down to the maids and coachmen, everyone was exceptionally excited.

Because today, their eldest young lady was summoned into the palace by His Majesty; if His Majesty could take a fancy to the eldest young lady, wouldn't they also rise to heaven with the chickens and dogs?

Just as Chu Ruoyan stepped into the gate of the mansion, she saw her mother rushing out from the room, her face full of concern and expectation.

"Daughter, you're finally back!" Chu Ruoyan's mother grabbed her daughter's hand, her eyes flashing with anxious yet excited light, "Tell mother quickly, how is His Majesty? Did he take a fancy to you? How is your progress with His Majesty?"

Chu Ruoyan's father was pretending to drink tea on the side, but his hands were shaking.

This is an opportunity that can determine the fate of the Chu family; how could he not be excited.

But then again, her father still knew Chu Ruoyan's temper.

If this girl is stubborn, then the trouble will be big.

Being kicked out of the palace is just a small matter; if she offends His Majesty because of this, then the Chu family being able to pack up and leave the Imperial Capital can be considered lucky.

After Chu Ruoyan returned home, she had already returned to her normal appearance.

She gently patted her mother's hand to show comfort: "Mother, don't be anxious, let me tell you slowly."

As she spoke, she walked slowly into the room, and her mother followed closely, her eyes full of expectation.

Sitting by the window, Chu Ruoyan took a sip of tea, moistened her throat, and began to tell the process of the lunch banquet: "His Majesty was in a very good mood today and treated me quite courteously, but this matter of feelings, how can it be achieved overnight? Daughter chatted with him for a few sentences during dinner, but didn't involve too much private affection."

Compared to those who couldn't move their legs once they saw her, and then pursued her crazily like they were possessed, Li Chen's approach was the one that could most make Chu Ruoyan have good feelings.

At least she could feel that this Emperor, who was in a high position and had strong strength, respected her very much.

In the process of communication, he could also take care of her feelings.

Unlike those other men, who were always showing off how powerful they were in front of her.

They never cared about what she really wanted.

Li Chen was very considerate; after knowing that Chu Ruoyan liked to eat sweets, he not only thoughtfully prepared many desserts for her but also indicated that he had a certain amount of research in this area.

Chu Ruoyan was looking forward to being able to eat the 'ice cream' Li Chen mentioned; thinking of this, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

At that time, Chu Ruoyan felt that Li Chen was too outstanding; he was completely on the points she liked.

Which woman could withstand Li Chen's level of offensive?

When Chu Ruoyan chatted with her mother to the point of excitement, she also said that she saw many big figures in the Imperial Study.

Don't look at those big figures being majestic on weekdays, but when they made mistakes, they also knelt in front of Li Chen trembling.

This scared her mother; her mother hurriedly said: "Shh! These things cannot be said randomly, even if you see them, you cannot mention them to others, don't you understand!"

Saying things in the palace without authorization is a very dangerous thing.

Chu Ruoyan heard her mother say this, and only then felt a bit of lingering fear.

Oh no, I heard so much just now, wouldn't I be in danger?

You know, those ministers kneeling in front of Li Chen, each one could put the Chu family to death.

Seeming to see her daughter's worry, her mother comforted: "Rest assured, since it was His Majesty who let you stay there, then you have already obtained his tacit approval, but we ordinary people cannot listen."

Doesn't Chu Ruoyan's mother want to know what happened in the Imperial Study?

Of course she wants to know, but she also knows that some things are best not known if they shouldn't be known, so as not to cause trouble.

Seeing her daughter's expression, as someone who has been through it, how could the head of the Chu family not know that his daughter must have good feelings for the Emperor.

The heart that was hanging finally let go of half.

The other half, that depends on whether the Emperor takes a fancy to his daughter. However, there is one point, the head of the Chu family can be sure, and that is that this new Emperor must be very outstanding.

If the new Emperor were unbearable, his proud daughter could never have such an admiring expression when mentioning the Emperor.

After chatting with her family, Chu Ruoyan was also a bit tired and prepared to return to her room to rest.

Just as she came to the courtyard where she was alone, a black shadow arrived quietly.

This person is none other than Xiao Ming, who blocked Chu Ruoyan's way.

"Why are you in my house!"

Seeing Xiao Ming at that moment, Chu Ruoyan subconsciously covered her chest and pulled her collar up quite a bit.

Xiao Ming felt that he was relatively decent; even if he wanted to see, he still deliberately looked away and lowered his head.

Even took a few steps back to express that he was indeed a gentleman.

"Ruoyan, I'm here to tell you good news; my master has already agreed to help us leave the Imperial Capital."

!

Xiao Ming followed from the palace gate until now just to find an opportunity to clarify this matter.

Seeing Chu Ruoyan dressed like this, Xiao Ming was really heartbroken.

For so many years, except for Chu Ruoyan's hands and face, he hadn't seen any other places.

Damn it, just like that, she was taken advantage of by that dog Emperor; Xiao Ming's heart was dripping blood!

Ever since Xiao Ming saw Chu Ruoyan, he had already identified this woman.

Now that his goddess is threatened, Xiao Ming feels that he must save his goddess from the poisonous swamp.

Just now while waiting outside the palace gate, he could imagine the humiliation his goddess suffered in the palace!

Damn dog Emperor, I, Xiao Ming, will remember this grudge!

The day I become a Sage Realm, I will definitely teach this dog Emperor a lesson and wash away the hatred in my heart.

Unfortunately, his strength is not enough now, so he can only let the dog Emperor go first.

If Chu Ruoyan knew he thought this way, she would definitely say: actually, it wasn't as humiliating as you thought, and I was even a little happy.

But at this time, Chu Ruoyan recalled that she seemed to have tacitly agreed to 'elope' with Xiao Ming.

At that time, due to restraint, she didn't agree directly, but she did have this idea.

It's just that after going to the Imperial Palace and seeing Li Chen, she forgot about this matter.

Just as she was preparing to explain, Xiao Ming gritted his teeth and said: "I understand this is not your intention, you don't need to explain to me, I believe in your character, you must try your best to drag this out for seven days."

After speaking, Xiao Ming didn't wait for Chu Ruoyan to reply and disappeared into the backyard of the Chu family.

Because in his view, how could a proud woman like Chu Ruoyan take a fancy to that Emperor.

In Xiao Ming's mind, Li Chen is an old, ugly, and lustful image.

After all, most people only know that the May Tian Ce Dynasty has changed to a new Emperor, but they are not clear about the specific information of this new Emperor.

Xiao Ming's strength was originally one realm higher than Chu Ruoyan's, and the cultivation technique he practiced was strange, and his movement technique was also very fast; she couldn't stop Xiao Ming at all.
