The middle of the hall was cleared. Shen Pin cheered Ming Shu on with a hand sign.

  Ming Shu: “.……”


  Shen Pin didn’t know what was going to happen to him. He was still immersed in happiness.

  Huan Li took off his outerwear. The clothes inside were red too. Without the outerwear, he felt lighter.

  “Please.”


  Ming Shu raised her leg and kicked him.

  Huan Li almost got hit. He dodged the leg. Ming Shu attacked with her palm. Huan Li was at a disadvantage.

  Ming Shu gained the upper hand due to her surprise attack so once Huan Li regained his composure, she lost her advantage.

  If she lost, her partner would be sentenced to death.

  Huan Li realized that Ming Shu’s attacks got quicker. Every time he felt that he was about to hit her, she would evade his attack.

  Ming Shu pressed Huan Li’s arm down. Huan Li blocked Ming Shu’s legs. Both of them paused for a while.

  Ming Shu lowered her voice. “I can really find you everywhere, Luo Yan.”


  Huan Li’s voice changed. He gritted his teeth. “Do you think that I have it easy?”


  He didn’t know how these two people managed to meet in every single world. He couldn’t do it.

  He spent so much effort, but he wasn’t able to find them.

  He just wanted to go back.

  He was willing to be Qi Yu’s servant for a month if he could go back.

  They parted and exchanged a few blows and then paused again.

  Ming Shu said, “Don’t think about getting him.”


  Luo Yan replied, “I can only go back if he helps. Don’t you know that staying in these worlds for a long time will harm us? You are harming him.”


  Ming Shu asked, “How do I know if you’re telling the truth?”


  Luo Yan said, “My dear sister, do I have to lie to you now? I just want to go back.”


  He was going crazy.

  Ming Shu kicked Luo Yan’s chest. Luo Yan stumbled a few steps back and slammed into a table.

  He raised his hand. “I’m not fighting anymore.”


  He came here because he wanted to get close to Shen Pin. If not, he would never do such a thing.

  Since Ming Shu knew everything now, it was useless for him to do anything else.

  He said everything he needed to.

  It was up to her now.

  Luo Yan tidied his clothes and asked his servant to help him put on his outerwear. “Your Majesty, I admit defeat. I will not be marrying the princess. I heard that the scenery at Fengqi imperial city is amazing. Can I stay here for some time?”


  Shen Yu: “???”


  Shen Yu frowned. “This is not child’s play.”


  Luo Yan smiled. “Your Majesty, the prime minister started everything first. I was not able to defeat her so I admitted defeat. As for the other business, we will not go back on our words. You don’t have to worry about that.”


  Shen Yu didn’t know what to say. Her prime minister and her princess……

  “Since you like the imperial city, you are welcome to stay……” Shen Yu said. “If you need anything, you can tell the Minister of Rituals.”


  Luo Yan got his answer and left immediately. “I’ll take my leave now.”


  Luo Yan left with his ambassadors.

  “.……”
……

  After the ambassadors left, it was time to deal with her own people.

  “The rest of you can leave.”


  Shen Yu shouted.

  Everyone was already frightened so they didn’t hesitate and left instantly.

  This was too scary.

  “You can go back too.” Shen Yu let go of Shaoyao.

  Shaoyao’s hand was red. He rubbed his hand and answered, “Yes.”


  The two Elders were left behind. Actually, Shen Yu didn’t want to stay with Ming Shu alone, but she would never admit that she was afraid of her.

  Once the door closed, Shen Yu glared at Ming Shu and Shen Pin angrily. “Seventh sister, Prime Minister, what are you all doing?”


  Since Ming Shu already said it, she would not go back on her words. “Don’t worry, Your Majesty. I will marry Her Highness.”


  Shen Yu: “.……”

  “Prime Minister, do you know what your gender is?”


  “Gender is not an issue,” Ming Shu said.

  “.……”


  Shen Yu couldn’t win against Ming Shu in an argument so she directed her anger at Shen Pin. “Seventh sister!”


  Shen Pin replied calmly. “Your Majesty, I like Prime Minister.”


  “You like……” Shen Yu shook with anger. “You like her? She is a female just like you. How can you like her? How will you explain this to your mother? How are you going to face our ancestors?”


  Shen Yu looked at her intently.

  She wouldn’t believe them……

  Elder Feng persuaded, “Your Highness, don’t make a mistake. No one has ever done such a thing before. You are a princess. How can you……”


  “If I’m not……”


  “Your Majesty, the past doesn’t represent the future.” Ming Shu stopped Shen Pin. “I will marry Shen Pin. If you have anything against it, you must get rid of me first.”


  “You……”


  Ming Shu gave them an irritating smile and pulled Shen Pin away.

  “Jing Se, stop it!”


  “No way.” Ming Shu waved her hand.

  Shen Yu was so angry she grabbed an ornament beside her and threw it at Ming Shu.

  “Guards!” Shen Yu shouted.

  The imperial guards outside came in.

  “Bring her back.” Shen Yu pointed at Ming Shu. She was afraid of going overboard last time but now, she just wanted to kill her. If she were dead, those people couldn’t do anything on their own.

  Ming Shu looked at the imperial guards.

  “I don’t want to fight,” Ming Shu muttered. “I have not eaten my fill.”


  Shen Pin: “.……”


  However, when the imperial guards charged at her, she lifted the small table beside her and threw it at them. Then, she grabbed a weapon from one of the imperial guards.

  “Dead or alive, catch her,” Shen Yu shouted furiously.

  Elder Feng wanted to stop Shen Yu, but couldn’t. Elder Zhang lowered her head. She didn’t dare to look.

  With Shen Yu’s words, the imperial guards became more violent. Ming Shu pulled Shen Pin back. Shen Pin appeared to be frightened. Ming Shu gave him full points for his acting skills. Look at his eyes and his actions. Impressive.

  The screams from the imperial guards echoed through the hall.

  Shen Yu looked at her imperial guards as they were subdued by Ming Shu.

  Her expression turned fearful. Her face was pale.

  Shen Yu didn’t know when Ming Shu left. By the time she regained her senses, there was only Elder Feng and her left in the hall.

  Elder Feng waited for Shen Yu to finish venting her anger.

  “Your Majesty……”


  Shen Yu trembled with rage. “How dare she fight my men.”


  “Your Majesty, the prime minister is not afraid of you……” Elder Feng frowned. “The imperial guards couldn’t stop her and even the assassins we sent didn’t succeed in their mission.”


  Shen Yu’s face turned cold. She wanted Ming Su to die on the battlefield but instead, she won the war and came back alive.

  Shen Yu slowly sat back on her dragon chair. “Elder Feng, do you believe that she likes Sister Seven?”


  Elder Feng hesitated before replying, “I’m not sure. She didn’t have any interaction with Princess Seven before this, but if they are really planning something, they will not create such a huge fuss.”
