C970 Flowerbed
Chen Qingyang started. He felt as if someone had kissed him. However, he also knew that she was healing, and he also knew that Qiao Ning was not someone he could tease.
"What about Nie Meiniang? And what about Old Devil of Heavenly Mountain? " Chen Qingyang asked Qiao Ning.
Lili said, "I don't know. After you were injured, I brought you here."
Chen Qingyang looked at the sky. At this time, the bright moon was in the sky and the ground was covered in a silvery grey color. He quickly asked, "How long have we been here?"
"About an hour." Qiao Ning said.
Chen Qingyang said, "Shall we head back to the Sky Mountain Divine Palace?" Lili said, "You go first, I still need to rest for a while."
Chen Qingyang was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Qiao Ning's injury was not light. He said, "You got hurt fighting Old Devil of Heavenly Mountain?"
Qiao Ning glanced at Chen Qingyang and then closed her mouth.
Chen Qingyang started. He was a smart man, too. It was not that Qiao Ning had been injured in the battle with Old Devil of Heavenly Mountain, but that she had lost a lot of her vitality when she was treating herself.
Qiao Ning was proud, and she would not say much to herself.
"Why aren't you leaving?" Qiao Ning asked Chen Qingyang.
Chen Qingyang laughed dryly and said, "I'll wait for you here."
Lili said, "Up to you." Then she closed her eyes and ignored Chen Qingyang.
Chen Qingyang waited for Qiao Ning for three hours. Within those three hours, Chen Qingyang fed Batu a good meal, which Batu played with for a while before returning to the Sumeru Ring. After three hours, Qiao Ning had fully recovered her power.
"Let's go!" Qiao Ning stood up.
Chen Qingyang followed. Qiao Ning performed the Dapeng Golden-winged Elemental Spirit. Chen Qingyang and Qiao Ning stood on top of it, and Dapeng's Gold-winged Elemental Spirit took off, flying towards the Skymount Temple.
Soon, they arrived at the Skymount Divine Palace.
The back garden of the Heaven Mountain Divine Palace was a complete mess.
Qiao Ning let Dapeng and the Golden-winged Elemental Spirit land in the back garden. As soon as they left, two Blood Blade Guards came out to welcome them.
The two Bloodblade Guards walked forward and were very polite to Chen Qingyang and Qiao Ning.
"Miss Qiao, Young Master Chen, you're finally back. We have received orders from the Governor, and have been waiting for a long time. "
Chen Qingyang smiled and asked, "Where is the Governor now?"
The Blood Blade Guard said, "Please follow me."
Chen Qingyang said, "Alright!"
Next, Chen Qingyang and Qiao Ning followed the Bloodknife Guards into the main hall of the Shrine.
The Skymount Prefecture was grand and majestic, with a total of nine palaces and eighteen halls. When they were at their most powerful, there were only a few people around. Every year, believers would kneel up the mountain to worship them.
But now, the Skymount Divine Palace had become a place for the yamen to handle matters. There were no longer any believers worshiping it.
In the main hall, a few gold-plated beams were carved with dragon carvings.
Lin Xianyang sat at the head of the table, with Maidservant at his side, holding a teapot.
Nie Meiniang was sitting at the bottom. The room was lit up by a lot of rosin lamps, which could be considered as having been lit up. When Chen Qingyang and Qiao Ning came in, Lin Xianyang got up to greet them.
"Miss Qiao, Young Master Chen, you're finally back. It makes us look forward to it, so please sit down! " Lin Xianyang said.
"You are too courteous, milord." Chen Qingyang saluted back with his fists.
Lili, however, did not receive these pleasantries and sat down.
Lin Xianyang didn't mind. He and Chen Qingyang sat in front of each other. After that, Maidservant served tea.
When Lili appeared from Chen Qingyang, her heart sank. Nie Meiniang let out a sigh of relief when she saw that Chen Qingyang was fine.
The corner of Nie Meiniang's mouth twitched, but she looked at Qiao Ning again, and in the end she said nothing.
Chen Qingyang didn't pay much attention to Nie Meiniang's mental activities.
After Chen Qingyang sat down, he asked, "Lord, then, is Old Devil of Heavenly Mountain executed?"
Hearing this, Lin Xianyang could not help but feel indignant. He said, "I went after him, but that old demon was very cunning. In the end, he still managed to escape." After saying that, he stood up and said, "Today, it was all thanks to Young Master Chen and Miss Qiao. Otherwise, all of my eight Blood Blade Guards would have all died by this Old Devil of Heavenly Mountain's hands. Besides, Old Devil of Heavenly Mountain was going to slaughter a lot of civilians. The two of you are my benefactors and the Blood Blade Guards, and the benefactors of the entire North Sea City. "
Lili said, "The reason why I attacked was all because of Chen Qingyang. Otherwise, your North Sea City's life and death had nothing to do with me. Thank you, Chen Qingyang. "
Qiao Ning's words sounded unkind, but in reality, she wanted to put all the blame on Chen Qingyang. Lin Xianyang started slightly, then said to Chen Qingyang, "Thank you, Young Master Chen."
Naturally, Chen Qingyang accepted Qiao Ning's favor. He cupped his fists and said, "Master is too polite." He then changed the subject and said, "I'm afraid that Old Devil of Heavenly Mountain will not let this go. Master Lin, you still have to plan ahead! "
Lin Xianyang said, "Old Devil of Heavenly Mountain will probably be recovering for a while, and I've already reported this to His Majesty. His Majesty will give his approval tomorrow morning. "
Chen Qingyang was enlightened.
At this time, Chen Qingyang naturally wouldn't ask Lin Xianyang for a favor. Or perhaps, asking Lin Xianyang to recommend him to His Majesty would be too subservient. Chen Qingyang believed that as long as Lin Xianyang knew how to behave, he would definitely mention him during the performance.
"It's not too early either." Lin Xianyang said, "Why don't I arrange a rest for the few of you first. After Old Devil of Heavenly Mountain's matter is settled, I will have a feast to thank all of you for your help."
Chen Qingyang nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Master." He immediately thought of another matter and said, "Not good, not good. I even made an appointment to meet with Big Brother Lei at the Jade Mansion." He immediately stood up and said, "Sir Lin, I still have some matters to attend to. Goodbye."
Lin Xianyang nodded and said, "Young Master Chen, if you have something to do, then go and busy yourself first."
Chen Qingyang said, "Alright, farewell!"
Chen Qingyang quickly left the Sky Mountain Divine Palace and headed towards the Jade Mansion.
By the time he reached the Jade Mansion, it was already closed. It was because it was so late at night, and the Fine Jade Restaurant was not a place for fireworks. Why would it be open for business at night?
However, Lei Bao had been waiting at the entrance of Jade Mansion the entire time. Chen Qingyang met Lei Bao the moment he arrived.
"Big brother Ley, I'm truly sorry." I have something to take care of today, so I've made you wait for a long time. " As soon as Chen Qingyang came up, he apologized profusely. Lei Bao, however, didn't mind at all. He laughed out loud and said, "Brother Chen, you are an immortal. Being able to think highly of me, Old Lei, is my good fortune. So what if we wait a bit?"
Chen Qingyang said, "Brother Lei, no matter what, I have to treat you tonight. "Otherwise, I feel too sorry for myself."
"That won't do, I was agreed to treat you." It would not be proper for you to treat him. "Did I wait for you in the middle of the night for you to treat me to a drink?" Lei Bao said with a stern expression.
Seeing Lei Bao's insistence, Chen Qingyang said, "Alright then."
Lei Bao laughed heartily. Then, he said in a low voice, "That Brother Chen, if you want to drink now, you can only use flower wine."
Chen Qingyang laughed and said, "Flower wine is Flower wine. I won't refuse any of you."
"Aren't you afraid that Miss Qiao will cause trouble for you?" Lei Bao said.
Chen Qingyang said, "Big brother Lei, you can't say such nonsense! Lina and I are clean. If she hears your words, she won't forgive you. "
Lei Bao said, "Brother Chen, that Miss Qiao, I think it's okay! You need to grasp this opportunity well. "2
Chen Qingyang laughed.
Then Lei Bao took Chen Qingyang to the Spring Breeze House. While they were drinking, Lei Bao found four other girls to keep him company, and Lei Bao hugged them both, up and down, happily. Chen Qingyang was a lot more reserved, and at most he was just putting on a show.
At daybreak, when Lei Bao drank too much and took the two girls to bed, he began to enjoy himself. Chen Qingyang couldn't do such a ridiculous thing. The two girls wanted to sleep with Chen Qingyang. Chen Qingyang gave them 10 gold coins and said: "You guys go sleep on your own."
Finally, Chen Qingyang found a chair to take a nap.
He had intended to sleep only for a while, knowing that it would be too tiring and that he would have to sleep until late in the morning. When he woke up, he heard Old Lei and the two girls stirring up trouble again.
Chen Qingyang couldn't help but snicker.
This Old Lei was probably holding back when he was sailing in the sea.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Qingyang bade farewell to Old Lei and then returned to the Heavenly Mountain Divine Palace.
That day in the palace, Qiao Ning and Nie Meiniang were waiting for Chen Qingyang. When the two girls saw Chen Qingyang, Qiao Ning's expression remained as cold as ever. Nie Meiniang took a deep breath, then said with incomparable disdain, "You went to the Flower Hall last night?"
There was no way to deny that. Chen Qingyang coughed dryly and said, "I did go, but I didn't do it either. It's Old Lei doing it! "
"Who would believe you!" Nie Meiniang said.
"F * ck!" Chen Qingyang said, "Does this young master have no taste at all?"
Qiao Ningze said, "Return to the Imperial City as soon as possible. After I arrive at the Imperial City and help you refine the little dragon, I will leave."
Chen Qingyang was stunned. He then asked, "What about Lord Lin?"
Lili said, "He's in the backyard, directing people to fix the garden."
Chen Qingyang said, "I'll say my goodbyes."
Lili said, "I'll go with you."
Qiao Ning would not go. When Chen Qingyang and Nie Meiniang arrived at the back garden, Lin Xianyang saw them and immediately smiled. "Young Master Chen, you're back. You must be hungry, right? I'll have my servant prepare some food. "
Chen Qingyang smiled and said, "My lord, I have come to bid you farewell. We're about to return to the Imperial City. "
Lin Xianyang said, "Leaving so soon?"
Chen Qingyang said, "Anyway, it's none of our business now. We still have important matters to attend to, so we won't delay any longer."
Lin Xianyang said, "Alright! You can drink to your heart's content the next time I return to the Imperial City."
"Of course!" Chen Qingyang said.
Lin Xianyang then took out an envelope and said, "Young Master Chen, this is a letter I want to present to His Majesty. Since you want to return to the Imperial City, I'll have to trouble you to bring it over."
Chen Qingyang went blank for a moment, then said a bit embarrassedly, "But there's no way that I can see His Majesty!"
Lin Xianyang smiled and said, "Take my pass and go to Yufeng Garden. "When you get there, hand over your warrant and just hand over the envelope."
"Alright then!" Chen Qingyang accepted the envelope.
