"Let me replace you in the palace?" Huxin raised an eyebrow. Nowadays, it was impossible to guess Liu Yuren's intentions, so she could only watch the situation unfold.
However, what Huxin did not expect was that De Gonggong, upon hearing Liu Yuren's words, immediately nodded in agreement, showing complete support. The cold sweat on his forehead had vanished as he grinned and looked towards Huxin's carriage.
"If the General says so, then that's wonderful! Miss Xia, what do you think..." De Gonggong was also a shrewd person; clearly, he had already secured Liu Yuren's agreement, yet he still adopted a tone of seeking Huxin's opinion. In truth, there was no way for Huxin to refuse at this point.
Huxin couldn't help but lift the curtain of the carriage, her gaze meeting De Gonggong's beaming face, which made her feel as if she had been schemed against by Liu Yuren.
Unfortunately, with only a month's worth of memories, she still needed to gauge the reactions of those around her. Moreover, she would remember this favor from Liu Yuren! For now, she would go along with him this time.
"Then please lead the way, Gonggong. I happen to owe General Liu a favor, so I will repay it today." Huxin skillfully maneuvered her words; as her voice fell, her delicate hand gently lowered the curtain of the carriage, revealing a stunning beauty.
Inside the Liuli Soft Sedan ahead, only the faint scent of sandalwood tea lingered, and Liu Yuren's true appearance remained unseen.
De Gonggong let out a sigh of relief as he flicked his dust whisk. Although Miss Xia was somewhat restless and impatient, at least her temperament was understandable, unlike General Liu's voice, which was as steady and precise as if measured by an accurate scale.
With a command from De Gonggong, the carriage and palanquin departed in opposite directions. Huxin looked ahead at Weiyang Palace not far away and felt a sinking sensation in her heart. The two gentlemen inside Weiyang Palace were truly the twin dragons of the Vast Continent! One was the ruler of the Jing Family Dynasty for thirty years, and the other was Gu Family Hong Ye, renowned for its grandeur and equal to the nation. Facing two heavyweight figures simultaneously, she hoped that two negatives would make a positive and turn danger into safety!
Liu Yuren’s favor was indeed quite heavy! The pit he had dug was deep enough! Who told her that she never liked owing favors to others?
Meanwhile, inside the palanquin moving in the opposite direction, a jade-like man in purple gently set down his white jade cup. His jade-like features formed a smile that seemed neither here nor there as he softly spoke,
"Girl, you say that one must repay kindness; surely it follows that one must also repay enmity." Although it was phrased as a question, coming from Liu Yuren's lips it sounded more like a statement. Naturally calm and composed as his name suggested, his words seemed to respond to Huxin's earlier remark.
The Girl, a Black Tibetan Mastiff, obediently lay at his feet, her glossy black fur highlighted by the cold purple light of the Palanquin, adding an air of vibrant mystery to her presence.
Girl lifted her eyelids as if she understood Liu Yuren's words, turning her head to glance at the direction from which the carriage had departed, nodding thoughtfully. Her small, bean-like eyes sparkled with a keen intelligence.
Liu Yuren nodded in satisfaction, slightly closing his eyes, his demeanor as steady as jade.
“Girl, someone has been following us for a long time; go and check on her.”
Just as the Palanquin turned down a corridor and the surroundings fell silent, Liu Yuren's calm voice resonated softly. His beautiful eyes closed, and his thin lips released a steady tone.
The Girl lying at his feet seemed somewhat reluctant, casting a disdainful glance at the sneaky figure outside the Palanquin.
Her helpless little gaze clearly conveyed: Do I really need to intimidate this kind of person?
Instead of getting angry, Liu Yuren smiled. However, he sharply tapped Girl's head with his Jade Bone Fan, saying lightly, “You’ve been spoiled. Yesterday you insisted on sleeping enough before leaving, and today you need two bowls of bird's nest to soothe your throat before you can even bark. If this continues…”
“Woo…”
Before Liu Yuren could finish speaking, Girl cleverly wiggled her sturdy body and jumped down from the Palanquin.
