If we leave [2]

The most recent rain, according to the beaver, is a sign of rain. Meaning farmers when the year is rich, the year of harvest. I hope so.

Menocycline feels fear...

This fear arose uncontrollably in his heart, like a flood and fierce beast.

Behind her were dozens of assassins wearing black robes, their faces obscured.

The sharp blades in their hands, stained with who's blood, had already dried on the hilt.

The group seemed to be on the verge of grabbing her, but suddenly it seemed impossible to resist. She could only order her horse to run.

The pores all over his body suddenly opened up. Where was this? Why was he in such a predicament?

The man in black started to shoot. There was no way for her to dodge. Her thighs and back hurt a lot.

He did not hesitate to remove the arrow from his leg. The arrow was black, and it was obvious that the group of people were going to kill her.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind, and he opened his eyes.

This was still her room, her warm tent of goose-yellow peonies.

It turned out to be a dream. As he sat up, he realized that his forehead was covered with cold sweat. It was raining heavily outside the window. Perhaps he had been too tired recently, so he had such a dream.

There was not a single candle burning in the room, and the girl was breathing heavily in the darkness. It was over, it was over. It was just a dream, she consoled herself.

She gradually began to calm down. This dream was just too real, and she suddenly couldn't tell the difference between dream and reality, but in the end, it was still just a dream, right?

She comforted herself and closed her eyes.

It was the famous brothel in Ying City. As the name implied, there were many beautiful girls that were like flowers. It was said that the four most famous flowers in Ying City were called "Little Flower" and "Big Spring". The color came from the brothel. Yige Yiwu was worth a hundred gold coins. These twelve girls were like leeches that had spent all the silver in their pockets. These twelve girls were chaste and conservative, making money by relying on their talent. It was considered precious.

However, Meng was unable to figure out why the Emperor of Yunkai had arranged to meet her in a flowerbed, which made it easier for her to walk in men's clothes.

Halfway there, he suddenly remembered that the previous day was the Imperial Examinations. Today was the day to be ranked. He didn't know whether or not Scholar Xiao would lose his reputation this time, but he could not help but sigh in his heart.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, the carriage suddenly stopped.

The bustling crowd at the entrance to the city flowed endlessly. Presumably, this was the Mushroom. The curtain of the carriage was quietly lifted, it was Hannya who was dressed in the aqua-green men's gown, she smiled and said, "Young master, we have arrived, this servant will help you out of the carriage." Munch nodded.

Before he even entered the room, he could already hear the sound of the pipa, zither, flute, and the chirping of the birds. The voice of the woman singing was extremely melodious, and it was neither coquettish nor charming; it was the gentleness of a Jiangnan woman, causing one to be unable to help from feeling numb all over their body.

"Young Master Meng, this way, please." Presumably, this middle-aged woman was the mother of this pavilion.

As soon as he stepped into the room, he was immediately attracted by the aroma. It was really fragrant here.

It wasn't the fragrance of flowers, it wasn't the fragrance of fruits, it didn't belong to any type of fragrance, but rather, it was an extremely unique fragrance.

For the first time, the smell of the incense was soothing, as if nothing unpleasant had happened. If he were a man, even if he were forever immersed in the warmth, he would rather die like a ghost under a peony flower.

But she wasn't.

This' Enlightenment Jade 'was truly interesting.

The middle-aged woman walked through the main hall. Many young women were dancing on the stage. They casually danced along with the music, causing the men below the stage to repeatedly cheer. Some of them even bravely picked up a piece of silver from their bosom and threw it onto the stage. The young lady on the stage didn't avoid it at all as she smiled and bent down to pick up the silver.

She really couldn't understand the so-called woman in the red dust. She did not lie and quickly avoided the rotten scene.

After passing through the back gate, they arrived at a garden. Five or six maidservants were pruning the flowers and plants in the flower bed. They were all very gaudy flowers and plants. Not far ahead, across the arched stone bridge, was a two-story building. The old procuress stopped abruptly and said respectfully, "Young Master Yun, please wait for you on the second floor."

Meng Yuping nodded slightly. Hannya took out two heavy silver ingots from her sleeve, treating it as a fee for her hard work. The old procuress's eyes lit up when she saw the silver. She said flirtatiously, "I thank Young Master Meng for the reward. If you need anything, feel free to inform me."

The old procuress wanted to speak but hesitated. After a moment of silence, she added, "It's just that Young Master Yun said that he only wants to see you. Everyone else must wait downstairs."

"How can that be!?" "If my young master …" As Hannya was about to retort, Meng Xin made a gesture with her hands, "It's alright. Young Master Yun won't do anything to hurt me. Wait for me downstairs."

Hannya obediently shut her mouth, and watched as Meng Ke entered the building.

The unremarkable second floor had a different world, with ebony beams carved with images of wealth for tens of thousands of years. The furnishings in this room were all priceless. Especially that human-head-sized Luminous Pearl on top of the clouds; it was extremely hard to find. At this moment, it glittered like a small sun, causing one's eyes to hurt.

The stairs were all made of ebony, which came from the clouds. In the whole of Ying City, only the royal family could use such precious wood. Unexpectedly, they could still see it here, and each of them had been carved with a pattern of the sun, moon, stars, birds and beasts, showing the owner of the building's unparalleled nobility and ingenuity.

The man had his back to the cat as he sat at a rosewood table. The rest of his hair was gently attached to his tall and straight back. He was wearing a long silver-white robe with a flowing cloud embroidered on the cuffs. It was obvious from his appearance that he was a handsome and unapproachable man.

After all, this person was the emperor of a country. She was a lady from a noble family, and these inevitable formalities were unavoidable. She made a respectful gesture with her hand. "This lowly one greets the Confucian Emperor."

The person did not immediately look back. The teacup in his hand was slightly trembling. After a moment of silence, Meng Ke could not help but feel curious. He then repeated, "This lowly one greets the Confucian Emperor."

With a "pa" sound, the tea cup was placed on the good purple sandalwood table.

The person who had covered her ears quickly pulled her into his embrace, and a fragrant scent of flowers that smelled good but was unknown wafted into her nose. Her mind went blank, and she even forgot to resist.

"Jade Flower …" The man's magnetic voice quivered in her ear.

Who is this flower? What was the Emperor doing? Was it a formality of meeting another country? All in all, her heart was in a mess, but it was all for nothing … From within... It did not resist his embrace.

After a short while, Meng Quan's mind returned to its normal state of mind. Today was the first time she had met the Emperor of Yunjie. Normally, she did not know anyone from Yunjie, so she was tongue-tied and said, "Dang … "

The Emperor of Yunju was actually a lecher! He tried to free himself from his chest, but the man's grip tightened and he felt like he was going to suffocate in the next moment.

"Fine Jade Flower, I've finally found you …"

Jade Flower? What flower? She didn't have such a vulgar name. Yun Gui gradually let go of the shackles on her arms, looking at the slightly trembling, at a loss of what to do.
