Princess Against the World

"Do you really don't know, or do you just don't want to say it?!"

Wang Ke looked sideways at Li Ao, half-smiling but not smiling.

"You shouldn't be from my Wuze Palace, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't dare to speak so bluntly!"

Li Ao's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant. He was not humble as a servant. You could tell at a glance that he was out of place.

"Haha..." Li Ao chuckled, lowered his head to avoid Wang Ke's direct gaze: "Palace Master Shengming!"

Li Ao neither denied nor admitted, he just bowed with a smile and raised his hand to signal.

"Xu Keqing should have received the news. If the palace master goes over now, he might be able to catch a pot of brewed tea!"

"Xu Keqing...knows that I'm going there?"

"It's not that...it's just that every time Qilin Palace delivers a letter, the old palace master has to go over and ask for a cup of tea! This has become Xu Keqing's habit!"

"Begging for tea?"

Wang Ke lowered his eyes and looked at the letter in his hand, his pupils shrinking.

"Also...every time..."

every time?

This shows that the correspondence between Qilin Palace and Wuze Palace is no longer a short period of time.

Moreover, why can Xu Keqing be sure that he will definitely go to him for tea?

Could it be——

Wan Ke felt moved and suddenly opened the letter.

At first glance, his expression changed slightly: "Lead the way!"

"Palace Master, please!"

Li Ao was very used to Wang Ke's reaction.

It is estimated that anyone who sees a letter like that will have this expression.

The place where Xu Keqing lives is called Jingyuan, which means quiet. It is located near the ancestral hall on the back hill of Wuze Palace.

The path up the mountain is covered with fallen leaves, which are crisp and pleasant to the ears when stepped on.

"The slaves here are too lazy. Why don't they clean the mountain roads?"

"The palace master misunderstood, it's not that the slave is lazy, it's Xu Keqing's intention... He said that the leaves fell to the ground because of God's will. They will be wherever they are destined to fall. Even if we have the opportunity to change their fate , and will not interfere rashly...because we cannot forcefully change their fate just because we feel comfortable!"

"Xu Keqing's words really have the Buddhist meaning of a verse!"

Wang Ke chuckled and stared at the top of the mountain.

"If I had known that Xu Keqing was so wise, I should have come to visit earlier!"

Xu Keqing was an expert invited by his father, and he had such wise words. In Wang Ke's imagination, he must be an old man with an immortal spirit and a gray beard.

Unexpectedly, when Li Ao pointed at a figure on the pavilion, his breathing paused.

"That...is Xu Keqing?"

In the pavilion, a woman in a red tulle dress was kneeling in front of a small clay stove, flashing her feather fan.

The breeze blew up the woman's long hair, covering half of her face, and only her fair skin and beautiful face could be vaguely seen.

Li Ao was still not surprised by Wang Ke's reaction and bowed to salute.

"Palace Master, please!"

Before Wang Ke could reply, he turned around and left.

Wang Ke was startled, then stepped forward lightly in disbelief——

Looking at the back, the woman's figure is slender but not petite. The figure sitting there seems to be about the same height as him.

"Palace Master Ke, please sit down, my tea will be ready soon!"

It was okay if the woman didn't speak, but as soon as she spoke, all the charming images in Wang Ke's heart were blown away.

because--

"you……"

The woman's voice had a proper masculine accent.

If no one was around at this time, and if he heard it with his own ears, Wang Ke would have suspected that he was just a lackey.
