By the time Yan Bai sent the South Gate Fruit back, the sky had already brightened. He stood on the street and looked at the rising sun with a faint smile. He stretched his body and walked towards the palace.

"Still not coming out?" Suddenly, Yan Bai said with an indifferent expression. He did not even turn his head, nor did he stop his footsteps as he continued walking forward.

He looked at Yan Bai and chuckled, then said, "Master, you have had a good night. Seeing that you have not come back for a long time, and hearing from the dark guard that you are with the young lady of the general's house, Ling Yi came to wait for you."

"Play? Which one of your eyes saw me playing? " Yan Bai glanced at Ling Yi, waved his folding fan, and continued walking forward.

Seeing this, Ling Yun hurriedly followed, laughing out loud as he whispered into Yan Bai's ear, "Then what did you do tonight? "Although there have been cases like never returning home all night long, it has never been because of a woman. And that young miss of the general's household …"

"It must be itchy!" Yan Bai immediately turned around and viciously knocked Ling Yi on the head. However, when he thought of Nanmen Guo'er, the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.

"Mistress, isn't Lingyi concerned about you?" Ling Yi immediately curled his lips and said, "After so many years, you've finally fallen for a woman. Ling Yi is still very happy!" However... However, according to the secret guard, the young miss of the general's estate refused to accept your red jade? "

Hearing this, Yan Bai's face darkened. He narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Ling Yi and said coldly, "Looks like I'm the one who is too loose on you. It's time to let you relax!"

"No, no! Master, I was wrong! " Upon hearing this, Ling Yi immediately waved his hand and let out a hollow laugh, but from Yan Bai's reaction, he could tell that his master's treatment of the young lady of the General's Estate was not ordinary, causing him to be slightly surprised.

He remembered that a few days ago, his master wasn't like this. Why did a girl who he was infatuated with suddenly appear when he wasn't by her side for two days?

This is strange.

Yan Bai snorted coldly, turned his head to look in the direction of the general's manor, and said to Ling Yi, "Send someone to protect him."

"Huh?" Ling Yi immediately shouted in surprise. Someone was even being sent to protect him? His master actually wanted to send someone to protect a woman? This sun … It had clearly risen from the east …

"Ah what? Just send them! "Oh right, remember to send an expert over. If she discovers you and punishes you, I won't stop her." When he thought of Nanmen Guo'er's little temper, he felt a headache coming on. He was no match for her anyway.

Upon hearing Yan Bai's words, Ling Yi's expression became dazed. His master actually wanted to send experts to protect the young lady of the General's Estate, and was even afraid that the young lady would displease and punish them?

What was going on?

Could it be that his master really … Was it out of concern?

Although he was shocked, he did not believe it. After all, it was not something his master would do to apologize and smile, not to mention that the other party was a good-for-nothing Miss Firewood who had never seen the world...

At the beginning, he had been determined not to believe it, but now, he was a little confused.

"Yes, yes!" Your subordinate will send people over immediately! " He was suddenly extremely curious to see what kind of person the young lady of the general's estate was. Was she as beautiful as a fairy or was she with extraordinary intelligence? Otherwise, how could his mistress be so infatuated …?

"What happened to the matter I asked you to investigate?" Suddenly, Yan Bai changed the topic.

Hearing this, Ling Yi immediately became serious, and said in a low voice: "Yes, the item is in the hands of Du Wuqing's eldest disciple, but his eldest disciple doesn't seem to be here." Ling Yi had a casual look of a ruffian's smile on his face, but that look was replaced with a hint of sharpness. It seemed like Ling Yi wasn't just a simple follower.

Yan Bai nodded his head and thought for a moment. "Send someone to investigate his whereabouts. We have to get that thing."

"Master, don't worry. Your subordinate has already sent someone to investigate. If there is any news, it will be sent back immediately." Ling Yi said. Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, he said with a strange expression, "Something seems to be happening at the crown prince's place. There are quite a few experts entering and exiting his place these few days. I wonder what he plans to do."

Remembering Mo Rufeng's charming face, Yan Bai laughed and shook his head, "It's fine. Don't worry about him. He has no conflict with us. If he doesn't provoke us, I don't mind giving him a lesson."

Ling Yi nodded. Seeing that Yan Bai's expression had returned to normal, he relaxed and returned to his smiling, roguish look from before. He coughed lightly and looked at Yan Bai, "Mistress, there's something else I need to tell you."

"What is it? Tell me."

"Princess... She's here again. " Ling Xiao said with a smile that contained a hint of schadenfreude.

After hearing this, Yan Bai's brow creased as he unhappily said, "I chased her away!"

"If you can make it in time, I don't need to tell you! You should know the character of the princess, who dares to provoke her! " Ling Yi sighed helplessly.

"She's still here?"

"He's here! She won't leave until she sees you! Master, what do you say? " Ling Yi suddenly had a flash of inspiration as he lightly tapped his palm and said, "By the way, Mistress, don't you think that the young miss of the General's Estate is a good person? "Why don't you just take her? That way, as long as you aren't a fool, you'll know what you mean."

Yan Bai lightly glanced at Ling Yi, and thought back to Nanmen Guo'er's resolute rejection of him. He sighed helplessly and said softly, "If only it was that easy for her to stay here."

Actually, he didn't want to casually take her in. That wouldn't be good for Nanmen Guo'er either. If she was willing to stay in the palace, then no matter what, he would give her a position and wouldn't let anyone look down on her.

However, after this night, Nanmen Guo'er's talent was too shocking. She was definitely not someone who would become famous within a few years. Even though he was happy to see it, it made it more difficult for him to tame this little girl …

Sigh, it was a long journey. Who told him to fall for this little girl?

Upon hearing Yan Bai's words, Ling Yi was stunned, and asked in surprise: "Hey, could it be …" She still hasn't come? " Everyone in this country wanted to sneak into their prince's mansion, but why did it sound like their master was inviting that young miss instead?

"Enough nonsense, let's go back to the manor!" Thinking of how the princess was still at his residence, his expression turned cold.
