Early in the morning, Xie Qing was forced to visit the Empress. He looked somewhat sleepy and tired.
"I seem to have overexerted myself... I've been training so much with the sword, but I still can't develop a new technique..." the young man thought disappointedly, cracking his neck and casting a lackluster gaze at the tall and luxurious pavilion: "I wonder what she wants?"
Lu Yin was absent for the time being. She was visiting the branch of the Sect of Nine Pills, apparently wanting to contact the sect master through a convenient method.
Meanwhile, Xie Qing headed inside under the escort of two eunuchs.

"Your Majesty..."
Upon entering the luxurious garden, Xie Qing was enchanted by the beauty of the flowers and trees for a few seconds. A luxuriant willow swayed gently, like a maiden's hair in the wind.
Surrounded by white birds, she sat there - Yu Longfeng. She was not wearing her usual veil or luxurious hanfu.
