Cypress Boat Floating

Chapter 219 Refuse to meet

In just a few days, Ye Jianqing's originally weak body gradually recovered. It seemed that his recovery was faster than in his previous life.

After recovering, she was able to move freely and followed the route she remembered. Taking advantage of the dark and windy day, she dressed in a pitch-black nightgown and walked quietly towards the Imperial Master's Mansion as if she was familiar with the route.

The Imperial Master's Mansion was shrouded in darkness, with no lights or human voices. It was like an empty mansion. The Imperial Master's Mansion seemed to be the same in her impression. When she was outside the mansion, she didn't think much about it. But after quietly jumping onto the side wall, the situation in the mansion came into her eyes, which aroused some doubts in her.

The last time I visited the Imperial Master was also today, and it was about this time. Logically, the Imperial Master should be lying on the toffee chair in the front yard waiting for me at this moment, but now there is no one under the tree, and there is no light in the house. Ye Jianqing was puzzled and squatted down to look inside, but he could not see the Imperial Master.

Unwilling to give up, Ye Jianqing decided to go into the mansion herself to find out what was going on. So she wandered around the huge Imperial Master's Mansion alone, but still failed to find any human figure. This was really strange.

The empty courtyard seemed particularly deserted. Ye Jianqing returned to the front yard with a trepidation. The toffee chair was still standing alone under the tree, as if expressing loneliness. However, what was unexpected was that there was a strange boy next to the chair.

The sudden change startled Ye Jianqing. She didn't have time to think and quickly dodged to the side. Although she moved quickly, she still keenly felt that the young man seemed to have discovered her presence and shouted towards her hiding place: "Girl, please stay! The state master has a few important words to tell you."

Ye Jianqing couldn't help but frown, her heart full of doubts and vigilance. She really couldn't figure out what was going on, and couldn't be sure whether the other party really knew she was here, or was just deliberately testing her. For a moment, all kinds of thoughts came to her mind, making her hesitant and afraid to show up easily, fearing that once she walked out, she would fall into someone else's trap. After all, at this moment, she had trespassed here without permission.

"Girl, don't be afraid, please come out." Seeing that Ye Jianqing was reluctant to show up, the young man called out again. This time, Ye Jianqing clearly realized that she had nowhere to hide, so she calmed down, tidied her clothes, and resolutely walked out of her hiding place.

"Ahem..." Ye Jianqing coughed lightly, trying to hide his inner nervousness, and then pretended to be calm and asked: "Young Master, were you talking to me just now?"

"Yes." When the young man saw Ye Jianqing coming out, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile as bright as the sun, which made people look at him sideways. His smile was pure and bright, like a flower blooming in spring, giving people a different kind of beautiful feeling.

Seeing this, Ye Jianqing was a little confused, but still asked: "So, what do you want to talk to me about?"

The young man bowed slightly and answered politely: "Miss, is your last name Ye?" After receiving a positive answer, a hint of joy flashed in the young man's eyes.

Ye Jianqing gently licked her lips, which were slightly dry due to nervousness, trying to calm her inner anxiety. She wondered who this boy was and why he suddenly came to her.

The young man seemed to sense Ye Jianqing's nervousness. He comforted her softly, "Don't worry, young lady. I have no ill intentions. I am just here to convey a message on behalf of someone."

Ye Jianqing frowned slightly and asked, "Oh? Master Imperial Master?"

The young man took a breath and continued, "Miss Ye, my master has asked me to tell you that you don't need to go looking for him anymore. When the time is right, he will take the initiative to find you." After saying that, the young man breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Jianqing was even more surprised when he heard this. This mysterious master of state didn't even know what he wanted to say to him, and he told him not to look for him again. Moreover, the so-called five-year agreement between them was clearly made in the previous life, so how could it be the same in this life? Could it be that the master of state was also reborn like himself? Or his memory was not erased? But if that was true, what was the reason?

All kinds of questions came to her mind, leaving Ye Jianqing puzzled. She couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Miss?" Seeing that Ye Jianqing did not respond, the young man called out again cautiously. At this time, Ye Jianqing finally came back to her senses from her deep thoughts. She suddenly realized her own gaffe and quickly apologized to the young man, "I'm so sorry. I was thinking about something just now and was distracted for a moment. Please forgive me, young master."

The young man smiled slightly, indicating that he didn't care, and then said: "In this case, then I will escort the girl back to the Prince Xian's Palace." After saying that, he turned sideways and stretched out his left hand forward. His movements were elegant and natural, obviously well-trained.

It turned out that there was already a gorgeous carriage parked at the side door, waiting for Ye Jianqing. At this moment, the boy's task was to deliver Ye Jianqing safely to the palace.

However, Ye Jianqing shook her head gently and politely rejected the young man's kindness: "Thank you for your kindness, young master, but there is really no need to trouble you. I can go back by myself." The man in front of her was strange. She was thinking about following this man back to see where he came from. If he sent her back to the palace, then she would not be able to follow him.

But the young man was very persistent. He answered seriously, "This is an order issued by the Imperial Master himself. He has instructed that Miss Ye, you have just recovered from a serious illness and are still relatively weak. You should not overwork. So you must send you to the palace safely before I can leave." Faced with the young man's firm attitude, Ye Jianqing knew that he could no longer refuse.

So, she nodded, smiled and said to the young man, "Then I'll have to trouble you, young master." At the same time, she secretly thought that since she couldn't follow the young man to find the Imperial Master, she could use the time on the journey to chat with the young man in front of her. Perhaps she could get more information about the Imperial Master and other things from him.

Ye Jianqing had a good idea, but the reality was miserable. Not to mention getting any words out of the young man, the young man refused to even say a few more words. He kept silent and adhered to the principle that silence is golden. It seemed that Ye Jianqing was really nagging, so Ye Jianqing simply shut up and enjoyed the journey with the car.

The journey was not long, and they arrived at the Xianwang Mansion soon. After Ye Jianqing thanked the young man, she turned back to the mansion. However, as soon as she stepped into the gate of the mansion, she ran into Lu Ciqiu.

"Where have you been so late?" Lu Ci Qiu circled around her twice, his eyes fixed on her nightgown that blended perfectly with the darkness, his face full of curiosity.

Ye Jianqing replied in a sullen voice: "Let's go eat."

"Eat?" Lu Ci Qiu was confused. "You're going out to eat in this late at night?"

"I was turned away." Ye Jianqing left these words, then lowered his head and walked forward on his own, returning directly to his own courtyard. Lu Ci Qiu was left standing there alone, and it took him a long while to come back to his senses. He showed a look of not knowing whether to laugh or cry on his face, and followed Ye Jianqing into the courtyard, muttering non-stop: "Hahahahaha, I didn't expect that with your martial arts skills, you would be turned away, hahahaha..."

Ye Jianqing could no longer bear it, and rolled her eyes fiercely, cursing in her heart, and she really wanted to go up and cover his smiling mouth. In the end, she still threw out two words in a bad mood: "The Imperial Master's Mansion."

"National Master's Mansion? Why are you going to the National Master's Mansion?" Lu Ci Qiu couldn't help but feel very surprised when he heard that Ye Jianqing was going to the National Master's Mansion.

"I think there is something wrong with the Imperial Master." Ye Jianqing frowned and said, thinking to himself, instead of racking his brains here alone, it would be better to find someone to discuss it with, maybe there will be new clues and ideas. Lu Ciqiu has always been smart and clever, maybe he can give him some inspiration.

"What's the problem, Imperial Master?" This answer was completely beyond Lu Ci Qiu's expectations. The relaxed and happy smile on his face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a solemn look.

This was unexpected news, and Lu Ci Qiu even stopped laughing. He knew that Ye Jianqing would never say such a thing for no reason, and he must have discovered something suspicious.

Ye Jianqing said angrily: "He has a huge problem!"
