Be Modest,My Master of Imperial Guards

Chapter 41 Who Was Messing Around?

Late night, somewhere in the Palace.

The moon above the turret showed half of its shape, and a white figure was sitting on the eaves of the room topped with glazed tiles that looked like silver frost.

After a while, a man's light voice came from the shadow below the turret,

"You come to the Palace late at night and do not wear nightclothes, but instead dress up in that white outfit. Are you not afraid to be arrested as an assassin?"

However, the man in the shadow gazed at him with appreciation and surprise.

At this moment, as the bright moonlight draped over his white clothes on the turret, like a gauzy haze, added a heavy fairy mystery and natural quality to him. A silver mask with a tedious pattern covered half of his face, only to see that his thin lips were rising slightly.

"Humph! Ridiculous."

The white man on the corner tower laughed loudly, with a tone that was full of coldness and disdain. The delicate mask scattered a unique luster of the metal against the moonlight, cold and sharp.

"There's yet no martial talent who can reach me, Lu Qiange!"

Downstairs, the voice hidden in the shadow paused. He did not want to argue with this arrogant person, so he asked,

"Do you have any news for me this time?"

"Tonight, I encountered an interesting incident at Qingfeng Temple. People of your Western Depot were scammed by the Eastern Depot and ended up in an embarrassing position."

Recalling that funny scene he witnessed, the young man in white couldn't help but laugh. His stern voice was extremely pleasant, which was rolled up by a whiff of a phantom night wind and brought to the dark and borderless universe.

"What? What happened then?" The man in the shadow became interested after hearing it.

"Then I played some dirty moves to the people of the Western Depot. I believe that within a day, everyone in the capital will know that the Commanders-in-chief of the Eastern and Western Depots were at beef with each other."

The white man looked down at the red wall besieged by the night fog, and his tone was very relaxed. A pair of purple eyes exposed outside the mask revealed a fine sharp light, looking very offish.

"Good job, Mr. Lu." The man in the shadow applauded to show his sincere admiration for him.

The Eastern Depot had always acted arbitrarily and dominated the political affairs of the Dayi Dynasty for a long time. The later establishment of the Western Depot was announced to assist the Eastern Depot in handling cases to jointly capture unfaithful ministers to the country. But in fact, it was aimed to check and balance the power of the Eastern Depot.

If there had been discord between the Commanders-in-chief, there would have been one of them losing in the fight for power. Or, it would have hurt both sides...

"For now, let's protect the Eastern Depot first!"

After listening to his thoughts for a while, the man in the shadow looked up again at the man in white surnamed Lu above the turret, with a tone of caution.

"Why?" The young man in white turned his head slightly and looked casually under the turret.

"The Commander-in-chief of the Eastern Depot had too many secrets and is still useful to me." The answer from the shadow was decisive and simple.

The young man in white seemed to think for a while and looked up after a while. He then looked farther away: "Do you know whether the Commander-in-chief of Eastern Depot has a wife and concubines?" Suddenly, he asked an irrelevant question.

The voice over there paused and then burst into a smirk,

"Why would a eunuch marry? At present, I haven't heard that he has found a match. Why do you ask? "

The man in white stopped talking but got up on the glazed tile, standing under the half-moon.

He was quietly recalling the scene when he first saw her in Baoyue Restaurant.

It was really interesting! It was not common that a young girl like her was willing to disguise herself as a man and stayed in the company of a eunuch, but not as his wife or concubine.

However, she looked better last night when in women's clothes.

Recalling that, the young man in white unconsciously had his lips gently moving, with its corners going upward, gleaming in the moonlight.

"Are you leaving?" The voice in the shadow said, "Give my regards to Wenren."

"OK! Take care in the Palace, and we will see no soon." When the voice didn't go away, the man in white had taken off, turned around smartly in the night sky, drawing a full white arc, and then the figure disappeared on the roof of the Palace in the opposite.

.

Gu Yunxi sat in front of the dressing table, looking at her exquisite face in a Linghua Mirror stupidly. With thin eyebrows and a pair of apricot kernels watery eyes on her face, her pink lips had been kissed by the Master so hard into a red and swollen look, revealing a sense of special charm with a crystal-clear look.

The Master just kissed her.

Since she was kissed by a man for the first time to feel what it was like to contact his lips, she was too excited to fall asleep.

Even now, she kept reliving that strange feeling of softness and moisture Gu Yunxi experienced at the moment when their lips and teeth touched each other.

She had to admit that she really liked the Master. He looked so handsome and was so gentle to her. So when he hugged her and kissed her, she did not even feel a slight of disgust or resistance.

She really liked the Master! Even his physical deficiency did not make her less love him.

She had been treated as a useless person who spended a lot of money on medicine. No one cared about her. Her beautiful sister, Gu Yunjin was all Nanny Gu's concern. She would always get whatever she wanted as long as she asked for it.

But Gu Yunxi could only hide in the corner.

In order to survive without discrimination and t*****e, she must learn to be gentle and well-behaved. She must learn to accept her fate. She tried to play foil to Gu Yunjin, work hard on something, and prove that she was the same as other normal people.

Master was the first man who was willing to treat her tenderly.

She probably had not met many people, so she cherished his goodness, especially his tenderness to herself. As long as she could have this tenderness, she would be content.

Even if she knew that he was not a real man who was said to be infertile, she didn't care. All she wanted was to stay with him just like in these days, listening to him and cooking for him.

She thought that the love between men and women was nothing more than that, living together and had a sweet and flat life till old.

She didn't remember when she fell asleep and seemed to have a dream shortly after she went to bed.

In the dream, she and the Master embraced each other sweetly. He confided his love to her with his head gradually drooping. Gu Yunyao appeared in front of them when they were about to kiss, pointing at the Master, swearing. Then she held her tightly and burst into tears interrogating why she abandoned her and fell in love with her enemy who had pushed her so hard.

Gu Yunxi felt as if a big rock had been pressing on her heart, so heavy and sore. She repeatedly sobbed, praying for the forgiveness of her eldest sister. She admitted to her that she liked the Master very much, asked her to understand and begged her not to stop her.

When she turned around again, the Master had gone away, leaving a decisive and blue receding figure. She tried to shout but could not make a sound. She chased him when crying desperately but could not catch up with him.

Suddenly Gu Yunxi was wakened, and the sky outside was still dark. Lying on the bed, her mood instantly hit bottom.

When she was immersing in sweet love, she even dared forget her eldest sister Gu Yunyao.

This dream was like some kind of revelation. If one day she had met her eldest sister to let her know that she fell in love with the person who had been at beef with her, she assumed that her sister would not have forgiven her again!

The more she pondered over it, the sadder she felt. All of a sudden, Gu Yunxi fell asleep again.

Leng Qingtang got up early and put on his new Commander-in-chief's uniform. It was the day when he would routinely review the team at the Training Field of the Eastern Depot.

At the time of the breakfast, there was no movement in Gu Yunxi's room. Leng Qingtang guessed that she was still asleep, so he did not let the server Sun Bing waken her.

Before leaving the room, he was still worried, so he walked to Gu Yunxi's room to check how she was going. Last night with the moon was so beautiful that he had an irresistible urge to hug and kiss her wildly. He did not know whether the innocent little girl was too shy to show up.

Leng Qingtang didn't feel wrong with the accident last night. After all, he really liked her. Even if she was 12 years younger than him, this gap only made him even more desire to take care of her and love her.

He stood in front of the door and listened. There was no movement in it. He pushed the door open gently, finding that she hadn't locked the door.

In this case, she should have woken up early, so what was she doing in the room now?

With a bit of curiosity, Leng Qingtang walked into the room lightly.

The little girl was lying sideways with her face turning outwards. Her jet black hair lay on the bright silk. The quilt was kicked aside. Half of her body was exposed outside the quilt, which was curvaceous and exquisite. An exquisite foot hung on the side of the bed, like a carved sheep fat jade, so white, delicate and attractive.

Leng Qingtang came to the bed and looked emotionally at her sleeping.

Even he did know that he had too many things to do, that his future was unpredictable, and that the uncontrollable fate was pushing him straight forward, this pure and crystal-like little girl got him hooked on.

Leng Qingtang bent over and stretched out his plain white fingers to pick up the little cold foot, which was hanging in the air and gently put it under the quilt.

Gu Yunxi was awakened by the strange feeling on her body with her eyelashes gently moving. She opened her sleepy eyes, finding a tall and sharp blue figure beside the bed was helping her cover the quilt.

Master.

Gu Yunxi, knowing it was him, thought she was in a dream, with her nose full of the cold fragrance of him.

Leng Qingtang simply sat by the bed with a charming sense of smile on her eyebrows, and his voice was very soft,

"Sorry to bother you. I don't know if you are still asleep."

"Master."

Gu Yunxi was not completely awake. She murmured, thinking of the kiss he pressed on her last night when she was about to get up.

There was suddenly a blush of peach-pink on her small white face. She dragged the quilt and quickly covered her head with it.

Leng Qingtang stretched out her hand with a smile, pulling the quilt off her head without any effort. Suddenly, the pink and watery peach face entered his eyes again.

Her half-awake eyes were covered in a misty mist. She looked shy and flustered in bed, making Leng Qintang heartbeat so fast that he couldn't help but hug her in arms and covered her with a quilt again.

"When did you sleep yesterday? You forgot to lock the door." His fingertips rubbed gently on Gu Yunxi's small chin. He asked with a smile and rubbed her head with his side face.

"I don't know. Anyway, it feels like it's dawning not long after I lay down..."

She stared at his facial features intently when she replied, recalling all the dreams that were heartbreaking last night.

Inside, the Master with that cold back was now sitting in front of her eyes, smiling warmly at her.

"Master!"

Gu Yunxi suddenly threw herself in his arms, and shyly surrounded his jade arm around his neck, with a little sadness appearing on his small face.

"What happened?" After being stunned for a while as he seldom saw her act in a spoiled way actively, his heart seemed to be melted away in an instant, and his arms only held her tightly.

"Master!" Snuggling in his arms, there was another sour cry.

"I am here! Girl, what's wrong with you today?" He bowed his head and asked her gently.

"I had a dream..." Her voice sounded listless.

"Talk to me."

She leaned her head against his chest and shook it vigorously, said firmly and seriously,

"No, I can't tell you. I once heard that the nightmare would become true once it was told to others. Master, I'm afraid!"

She was afraid that one day in the future, he would really abandon her with no mercy.

"Stupid girl..." Leng Qingtang sneered and kissed her hair, "I'm always by your side, so don't worry."

Gu Yunxi finally relieved after hearing that. With her eyes becoming brighter, she raised to look at him.

The appearance of the Master was really handsome and beautiful, and as for his temper, it was super gentle when facing her. Every time he spoke gently to her, her heartbeat would become faster.

It was really wonderful to be spoiled by him.

Leng Qingtang bent down and helped Gu Yunxi to lay on the bed.

"Today I'm going to the Training Field and will come back before noon. Have a sleep and wait for me to have lunch together."

"Hum..."

She nodded obediently at him, staring at the Master leaving and closing the door gently with some reluctance.
