“I have a house. Although this courtyard only has three entrances and three exits, it’s still a luxurious mansion. Some time ago, His Highness rewarded me with an inn. It’s a golden rooster that lays eggs. Ning Xuemei, right? In my hands, they are no different from ordinary criminals. The imperial palace’s arsenal was indeed very tempting, but he had not fully digested the Xuanhuang Heaven-Opening Map he had obtained last time. He understood the principle of biting off more than he could chew.”

Su Qiutang suddenly stretched out two jade-like fingers and pressed them against his chin. Her big eyes seemed to see through him. Seeing that his gaze was pure and without any impurities, she did not believe that there was anyone who could resist the temptation of a high official’s salary.

He had promised everything he could think of, so why wasn’t he moved?

Was Shimin’s ability to win people’s hearts really that terrifying?

She didn’t believe it!

Her hand was soft and warm, smooth and boneless. It gently caressed his face. The contact between his skin made his heart flutter and gave birth to a different taste. A fresh and elegant fragrance entered his nose from her palm. She asked again, “Don’t be in a hurry to refuse. People strive for the higher ground, and water flows downwards. If you learn a good skill, sell it to the imperial family. Think about it carefully.”

He retracted his palm and pulled the jade out of the water. With a shake of his True Qi, he dispelled the water droplets. He put on his socks and boots before turning around to leave.

“Phew!”

Zhang Ronghua was about to suffocate. This woman’s seduction was too strong. He admitted that he almost fell for it. He let out a breath of turbid air. Being teased by her, flames rose in his heart. It was as if something was blocked in his heart, making him feel very uncomfortable.

Looking at the lake in front of him, he jumped and drew a beautiful curve in the air before landing directly in the lake.

Thud!

Water splashed and fell in the shape of raindrops, rippling in circles.

At the bottom of the lake.

Zhang Ronghua still felt uncomfortable. He took off his coat, leaving only his big pants. He sat down cross-legged at the bottom of the lake, thinking about her purpose for coming.

From what she said just now, she seemed to be representing herself on the surface. Considering her identity, it was very likely that she was representing the Empress. The Crown Prince was the Empress’s biological son!

They were in the same camp, so why did they still want to rope him in?

Assuming that the Crown Prince was not the Empress’s biological son, but it did not work, from this period of time, their relationship was very good. Words could lie, but the eyes could not be fake. This point could be ruled out.

She thought about how powerful the Phoenix Guards were. Since she could rope him in, she could also rope in others and crazily cultivate her power. Could it be that she wanted to wait for the Crown Prince to succeed the throne and take control of the government?

And the Crown Prince was not simple either. What was he hiding in the dark?

The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. She decided not to think about it anymore.

He circulated the Xuanhuang Heaven-Opening Art and allowed his mind to enter a state of emptiness, expelling all distracting thoughts.

In the Imperial Palace.

At the Tranquil Heart Palace.

Su Qiutang came in from the outside. The palace maid left on her own and closed the door.

On the soft couch.

The Empress was lazily lying on her side, her left hand supporting her head and her right hand holding a book. Her long and slender legs were exposed in the air. Her luxurious purple short skirt was as thin as a cicada’s wing, faintly discernible, inadvertently revealing infinite charm.

He glanced at her.

Su Qiutang sat down on the phoenix bed. She took an apple and a knife and began to peel the apple. The peel fell to the ground in a regular pattern.

“Did it fail?”

He handed over the peeled apple and picked up another one. Without looking back, he said seriously, “This person’s will is very firm. He was actually able to remain indifferent to the various conditions I offered.”

“Shi Min’s methods are not simple.”

Staring at the apple, the Empress narrowed her eyes and opened her red lips, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth. She took a bite of the apple and said, “There is no perfect person in this world. The more he is like this, the more he hides some kind of weakness. It’s just that we haven’t found it. Let people investigate again and target his weakness.”

Su Qiutang rolled her eyes at her. “”1 knew that you wouldn’t give up and would still get someone to investigate. When I came back, I already ordered someone to continue investigating!”

He narrowed his eyes in disbelief.

“I also want to know what his weakness is!”

In the Eastern Palace.

Qing ‘er’s face was stern and expressionless. She walked into the study with a cold expression. At this moment, the crown prince had already returned from the palace and was handling government affairs. When he saw her enter, he closed the palace door and put down the brush in his hand as if something important had happened. Shuang’ er poured a cup of spiritual tea and handed it over. She took the teacup and took a sip. Then, she handed the teacup to

Shuang ‘er and asked, “What happened?”

” The people below just reported that Su Qiutang came to visit Zhang Ronghua. The two of them talked for a long time at the Jingxin Lake. They were intimate and afraid of being discovered, so they didn’t dare to get close. They could only hide far away and secretly watch.”

The Crown Prince’s expression changed as he thought about it seriously. Zhang Ronghua was someone he had taken a fancy to, especially in the past few days.

He had shown great ability and could solve all kinds of unexpected problems. As long as he stepped out, there was nothing he could not do. His strength should not be just what he looked like. Perhaps he was a great grandmaster!

He was already a martial grandmaster at such a young age. With his background in the Imperial Army, it was obvious that he was very talented. Even Ji Xueyan and the others couldn’t compare to him. Even in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, even if he couldn’t be ranked first, he was still in the top three.

It was precisely because of this that he spared no expense to nurture him. First, he gave him the Golden Dragon Sword, then the Hundred Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix Fan, and even allowed him to enter the imperial palace’s arsenal to choose any cultivation technique..
