C27 Deer Cloud Palace Red Maple Palace

Everyone looked at Qiongzhi in confusion. One moment she was frowning, the next she was enlightened. Then, Qiongzhi looked at Qin Qing, "That day, if you and Qiaoyu did not send Qu Ruotao to Qin Ye's bed, in a few years, Qin Ye would also come to the Qu family to propose marriage."

"You mean..." Qin Qing was confused.

Qiongzhi threw down four words, "karma." Then she strode out of the Cloud Palace. Since Qin Ye and Qu Ruotao had gone to Qingqiu, she had to join in the fun.

When Qin Ye and Qu Ruotao arrived at Qingqiu Country, Gu Bei had already found an inn in the capital city. It was very close to the king's palace. Qin Ye turned back into a human in the clouds before landing on earth with Qu Ruotao in his arms.

Qingqiu Country was closer to Fengdu City. The weather was hot and there were colorful flowers everywhere. Qu Ruotao followed Qin Ye along the street. Children were playing happily everywhere.

Qu Ruotao sweetly leaned her head on Qin Ye's shoulder, looking forward to the day when there would be a bunch of naughty children around her. She was very happy in her heart.

"Husband, what do you think we should do if the child becomes as mischievous as me in the future and causes trouble everywhere?" Qu Ruotao frowned as she thought about this very troublesome question.

Qin Ye was slightly stunned. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Can't you just find a powerful husband to spoil him?"

"Husband? Why is it husband?" Qu Ruotao was confused.

Qin Ye replied, "Boy, boy..." I was too stupid and missed out on tens of thousands of years.

"Boy what?" Qu Ruotao couldn't help but ask when she saw that he couldn't say it.

Qin Ye pointed at Gu Bei in front of him and said, "He will lead us astray."

"Hmm?" Gu Bei turned around and saw Qu Ruotao and Qin Ye laughing happily behind him. He grinned back.

The Holy Fox was the national treasure of Qingqiu Country. It was personally raised by the king and lived in the Holy Fox Hall. It did not go out all year round, did not see the sun or moon, and did not care about black and white.

When Qin Ye brought Qu Ruotao to see the king, he was rejected by the king. Seeing that he was angry, Gu Bei turned into a cloud of mist and floated into the palace.

In the palace hall, the king was talking to a man in armor, as if he was talking about national affairs. Gu Bei was sitting on a pillar at the top of the hall. He leaned over and looked at the two people who were discussing state affairs in the hall. He raised his hand and used a magic technique to retrieve something from the air. While the king was standing up, he quickly took away the blanket under the king's feet.

The king lost his balance for a moment and fell to the ground.

The king stood up and looked at the armored man in front of him, "How long has it been since I last went to the Holy Fox Hall?"

The armored man revealed a troubled expression as he cupped his hands and replied, "Your Majesty, I just came back from the border. I don't know how long it has been."

"Someone, prepare the offerings!" The king shouted towards the door, then looked at the armored man in front of him and called out, "Chaoji, come with me to see her."

Gu Bei frowned. How could this king speak so gently to someone who looked like a general? Also, he was the one who pulled out the blanket, so why did he drag in the Holy Fox?

The person called Chaoji bowed and replied, "Yes, sir."

Gu Bei then used the same trick again. He took away the king's golden crown and jumped down. He transformed back into his original form and put the golden crown in his mouth. Then, he jumped out of the palace and ran out of the palace gate.

Gu Bei's sudden appearance caused a commotion in the quiet palace. The palace guards surrounded him from all directions, trying to catch him. He jumped up to the top of the wall. Seeing that the king had landed, he deliberately waited until the king caught up, then quickly ran out of the palace.

Before Qin Ye and Qu Ruotao could get far, they heard a burst of shouts from behind them. Qu Ruotao turned around and saw Gu Bei running out of the palace with a golden crown in his mouth. Behind him was a group of people from the palace. The leader of the group was a young man without a crown and dressed in a dark purple dragon robe.

"Is that the king, my lord?"

Qu Ruotao tugged on Qin Ye's sleeve. When Qin Ye turned around, he saw Gu Bei running towards Qu Ruotao with a golden crown in his hand. Qin Ye immediately blocked Qu Ruotao behind him. Gu Bei then ran to Qin Ye's side with the golden crown in his hand. He stopped and turned around to look at the palace guards chasing behind him.

Qingqiu Country Lord saw the black cat with a golden crown stop at the feet of a young man. He also saw that the man had an extraordinary aura, so he ordered Chaoji to personally go forward and retrieve it.

Chaoji received the order and came to Qin Ye and Qu Ruotao. He bowed to Qin Ye and Qu Ruotao, "Please return the golden crown to my country's king."

Qin Ye bent down and took out the golden crown from Gu Bei's mouth and handed it to Chaoji. "Please tell him that we are from Fengdu City. We passed by here and came to visit His Majesty."

When Chaoji heard this, he was stunned for a moment. He turned around and returned to the king's side, cupped his hands and reported, "Those two are distinguished guests from Fengdu City who have come to visit His Majesty."

The Lord of Qingqiu Country raised his eyebrows in surprise. Everyone knew what kind of place Fengdu was. Anyone who came from Fengdu City and had this kind of temperament was probably not an ordinary person.

"Please!" The king turned his body towards Qin Ye and Qu Ruotao from afar and made a gesture of invitation.

Qin Ye smiled and pulled Qu Ruotao, who was in a daze, towards the palace gate.

After entering the palace, Qu Ruotao suddenly held Qin Ye's hand and refused to take another step. "Husband, I suddenly feel panic in my heart." Qu Ruotao was afraid that the Qingqiu Country Lord, who was walking in front, would hear her, so she tiptoed and whispered into Qin Ye's ear, trying her best to keep her voice low.

Qin Ye frowned and looked at Qu Ruotao's face. As expected, she was a little pale. He took Qu Ruotao's hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid. When there are fewer people later, we can make the king reveal his identity so that we can see the Holy Fox as soon as possible."

Qu Ruotao saw that Qin Ye had misunderstood, so she did not say anything else. After nodding at Qin Ye, she pulled Qin Ye back a step and continued to walk forward.

Walking in front of Qin Ye and Qu Ruotao was General Chaoji. Afraid that Qin Ye and Qu Ruotao would not be able to keep up, he deliberately slowed down his pace and waited for them.

When they arrived at the Golden Temple, Qin Ye saw that there were still many palace people in the Golden Temple, so he waved his hand at the Qingqiu Country Lord and said, "Royal Lord, please give up. I have something to discuss with you."

Qingqiu Country Lord turned his head and looked at Chaoji. Chaoji understood and waved his hand at the palace servants who were waiting in the hall. The palace servants immediately left the Golden Temple.

Qin Ye looked at Chaoji again. The Qingqiu Country Lord waved his hand and said, "No matter what it is, Chaoji can share it with me."

When Chaoji heard this, he smiled at the king. Seeing that the relationship between the two of them was not an ordinary one, Qin Ye did not ask any further. He took a step forward and took out a black jade token from his sleeve. He placed it in front of the king and said, "I am the king. The reason why I am here today is actually because I have something important to see the Holy Fox."

The king was puzzled when he heard this. Qin Ye placed the jade token in his hand into Chaoji's hand, indicating for him to show it to the king. Chaoji carefully presented the jade token to the king.

The king looked at the two words on the jade tablet and couldn't help but be stunned. He raised his head to look at Qin Ye, then turned to look at the jade tablet in Chaoji's hand. The words "You Ming" were too conspicuous. The king of Qingqiu Country was still young, so he would never have thought that he would be able to see Nether Lord alive.

Qingqiu Country Lord was stunned for a moment. Then, he suddenly stood up and walked in front of Qin Ye. He bowed and said, "Qingqiu Country Lord Wuyan greets Nether Lord."

Qin Ye helped Wuyan up. Chaoji, who was behind Wuyan, also followed him and bowed, "Qingqiu Country's Great General Chaoji greets Nether Lord."

Qin Ye waved his hand, but Qu Ruotao, who was behind Qin Ye, took two steps back in fear and looked warily at Chaoji, who was behind Wuyan. This person had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looked familiar, but she could not feel any kindness from him, so she deliberately distanced herself from him.
