The forest was silent, and only insects were left outside the room to make some low noises.

The moonlight shines on the window paper, and the scenery in the room is hazy.

The queen mother wrapped in a red dress and leaned against the carved soft couch, looking a little tired and lazy.

Xu Buling sat upright, looked at the beauty's side face, was silent for a moment, and raised his hand to hook his somewhat scattered hair.

"Don't...don't touch me..."

A weak voice rang out.

The Empress Dowager raised her hand and hit Xu Buling's arm, then shed her strength and collapsed on the couch, leaving no strength to get up.

Xu Buling shook his head and comforted him softly:

"Baby, let's sleep for a while."

The Queen Mother's eyes showed a little annoyance, and after slowly waking up, her face was slightly cold:

"Rareless, who is your baby? You are called the Queen Mother!"

Xu Buling raised his eyebrows helplessly and turned to look elsewhere.

The Queen Mother rested for a while but still couldn't use her strength, but her words became clearer:

"You evil deed, you actually deceived me into making that kind of thing... You have no conscience..."

Xu Buling smiled with a pursed lips: "Isn't this to detoxify?"

"Pooh-"

The more the empress dowager thought about it, the more angry she became. She begged for mercy and obedient...

"You...why are you detoxifying? You are just to bully people. I... I won't save you anymore, go and die..."

He spoke with a little crying voice.

Xu Buling turned his head quickly and raised his hand to wipe the queen mother's cheek: "Well... it is indeed detoxification. I have been detoxified three times today. It used to be dawn, but it is still dark now."

“…”

The queen mother raised her eyes and glanced. It seemed that time was indeed much faster. But what's the use of fast? She would have to die in the house if she detoxified her.

"You...you exchange the things for me."

Xu Buling shook his head and chuckled, raised his hand and took out the quail eggs placed under the soft pillow and handed them to the queen mother.

The queen mother had a little fear in her eyes. She raised her hand and patted it, and directly patted the golden egg that she had been working hard for many days. The annoyance in her eyes disappeared a little.

Xu Buling sighed and comforted her softly: "Xiang'er..."

"Don't call."

"...Does the Queen Mother want to visit the Fairy Bridge again?"

The room suddenly calmed down and the breathing stopped.

Fairy Bridge...

Candied haws...

After a little silence, the empress dowager hit Xu Buling with her elbow: "Go." She forced her to hold her up with her arms, picked up a small mahogany sign from the table beside the soft couch, took off the carving knife, and carved another stroke on the 'right down' seriously, then sat on the couch, holding the small wooden sign and silently.

The hazy moonlight on the window paper was printed on the side of the empress dowager, but she couldn't see her expression clearly.

Xu Buling sat beside him, and the faint fragrance came to his nose. He hesitated a little and got closer.

“Woo~”

The Empress Dowager frowned gently, twisted her body and tried to avoid it, but her hand was held. She always turned her head and refused to look at Xu Buling, and finally closed her eyes... ——

The next morning.

The morning light in the east spreads on the mountains and the countryside. The stone path under the hibiscus, the sedan chair gradually drifts away. Mrs. Lu was wearing a light green palace skirt and stood in front of the gym, waving goodbye to her close friend.

After leaving Chang'an for a few months, he would inevitably cause criticism. The Empress Dowager did not go back to the Summer Palace and directly took her maid back to the palace. The next time she met, it would be Chang'an City, or it might be on the Fairy Bridge.

Xu Buling was wearing a snow-white robe and stood behind Mrs. Lu to watch her with a curved eyebrows and smile.

After the sedan chair disappeared at the corner of the mountain road, Mrs. Lu turned around and walked towards the resting bamboo forest: "Ling'er, go back."

Xu Buling nodded slightly and turned around to follow him. But as soon as he took a step, his legs became weak...

"ah-"

Seeing Xu Buling staggering, Mrs. Lu quickly supported Xu Buling with her body, and there was a bit of anxiety on her mature and beautiful cheeks:

"Ling'er, what's wrong?"

Xu Buling looked embarrassed, and he coughed lightly and stood up straight, allowing Mrs. Lu to support her: "It's a bit of breath... It's okay, let's go."

Mrs. Lu finally watched Xu Buling recover day by day, but when she saw Xu Buling became weak again, how could she not be anxious? She raised her hand and hugged Xu Buling, and in a blink of an eye she was about to call the guards over.

Xu Buling had no choice but to breathe a sigh of relief and hugged Mrs. Lu, who was shorter than him, directly:

"I'm really okay, Aunt Lu, don't worry."

Mrs. Lu was hugged by the princess, and nothing unusual appeared on her face. She just raised her hand and touched Xu Buling's forehead. After confirming that there was no problem, she breathed a little relieved and said softly:

"I'm still recovering from my injuries. Don't be careless. Let me go and don't be tired."

Xu Buling put down Mrs. Lu, laughed and accompanied Mrs. Lu towards the bamboo forest.

Mrs. Lu was still a little scared. Thinking about the arrangements in a few days, she said seriously: "Why would you like to push that competition? They are all gangsters. Your injuries have not healed yet. What if something goes wrong?"

Xu Buling shook his head and chuckled: "The wind has been released. I don't care about Qingkui's plaque. I can't defeat it and admit defeat. It's just a formality and saves a lot of people from worrying about it."

Mrs. Lu hooked her hair in her ears and nodded slightly, but she didn't want to say much.

The two of them had just walked a few steps between the bamboo forest, and Ning Yuhe came towards him on the narrow stone path.

After seeing Xu Buling, Ning Yu paused, as if he wanted to turn around, but immediately reacted again, stopped in place, nodded slightly:

"Madam Lu, Ling'er."

"Master."

Xu Buling walked up to him and raised his hand to pay a respect for his junior.

Mrs. Lu's complexion has recovered a lot and she smiled slightly:

"Master Ning is going to go out?"

Ning Yuhe looked a little weird, and he glanced at Xu Buling for a few moments, and didn't know what to look at, and said softly:

"Madam, don't you want massage? Go down the mountain to buy some medicinal wine."

Mrs. Lu suddenly realized that she almost forgot about this. She slowly walked up to her and said with a smile:

"It just so happened that it was fine on the mountain. I'll go with Master Ning and take a look at what kind of medicinal wine to use... Ling'er, you can rest on the mountain."

"good."

Xu Buling didn't close his eyes all night, so he naturally wanted to go back and have some sleep.

After Ning Yuhe said a few casual words, he accompanied Mrs. Lu out of the bamboo forest. He only took a few steps and looked back at Xu Buling watching in the bamboo forest. He raised his hand and waved his eyes. His eyes were pure and there was no strangeness.

Ning Yuhe turned her head, frowned and thought about it carefully, shook her head again, and thought to herself: It seems that she is really thinking too much. How could Ling'er, such an open-minded man, do such a thing...

Mrs. Lu walked slowly around her waist with her hands folded and saw Ning Yuhe not speaking, she said softly:

"Master Ning, Ling'er's feet were weak when he was walking just now, saying that he was out of breath. Does anyone who practices martial arts have this statement?"

"Soft feet...split air..."

Ning Yu frowned slightly and looked back, but the figure of his precious apprentice was no longer in the bamboo forest... ——
