The two people chatted while Su Nianxia and Tuoba Yu drank and chatted. Su Nianxia was lamenting about the pain of having a single love, Tuoba Yu nodded his head repeatedly to express his agreement.
Lan Bing'er lowered his head and did not speak.
Hua Ruge quietly pulled her over and asked: "You really don't like it?"
"Sister, Bing'er is still young." When Lan Bing'er heard this, he lowered his head even more.
She understood when she said this, she really did not have any feelings for Tuoba Yu.
"Then we'll have to wait until we grow up." Hua Ruge patted her head. It was not good for her to say anything else.
Lan Bing'er earnestly nodded her head and did not say anything.
The few of them did not have a good alcohol tolerance, so after drinking for a while, they fell down.
Tuoba Yu forced himself to open his eyes and listen seriously.
Hua Ruge went to sleep on the table very early.
Because of his identity, Lan Bing'er had only taken a few sips and was currently the clearest.
The priest came in from outside and asked respectfully, "High Priest, do you want to go back?"
Lan Bing'er responded softly as he helped Hua Ruge up and headed back to his room.
The priest saw the situation and said: "Your subordinate."
"No need." Lan Bing'er said as he helped Hua Ruge to get on the bed and helped her take off her outer robes. Then, he wiped her face and hands before he closed the door and left.
Naturally, there were people who escorted Su Nianxia back to his room and brought him to a palace to sleep.
Only then did Lan Bing'er change his clothes, sat on the Driving Palanquin and left.
The priest following beside the Driving Palanquin reported in a low voice, "High Priest, the Emperor already knows what happened at the sacrificial altar today. The calamity at the Upper Nether Realm should arrive soon."
Lan Bing'er closed his eyes and meditated, not making a sound.
The priest knew she had heard him.
However, she could not help but feel astonished. She asked, "High Priest, it was just a small matter. Why did you appear here personally?"
"I don't even care about small matters like this, I can't not meet important people." Lan Bing'er slowly said.
The Priest thought about Hua Ruge from before.
"Bring sister to my palace tomorrow." Lan Bing'er instructed.
The priest quickly replied.
By the time Hua Ruge woke up, it was already the morning of the second day. She stretched lazily and got out of bed, walking out to discover that there was a white Driving Palanquin at the bottom of the stairs waiting for her in front of the palace.
She didn't drink too much. She remembered what she said to Lan Bing'er before, that she should go to her place today.
"Xiao Binger is really early." Hua Ruge stretched lazily in front of the door.
Immediately, a servant came in to help Hua Ruge wash up. After that, she changed into a white cheongsam, half cloth, half muslin, which was as smooth as satin. Not only was it comfortable to wear, it was also light and elegant, making Hua Ruge look like an immortal.
The collar of the dress was open to the collarbone, revealing the snow-white skin below the neck. However, the most eye-catching part was the teardrop-shaped piece of jade she was wearing. The jade was worn by a black thread.
Hua Ruge stood in front of the copper mirror and looked at the necklace that had been accompanying him day and night.
His hand was called a thread, and it was called his heart. There was no way to undo it, only when he didn't like it would it be broken.
This item was firmly attached to her body, but as for him, why was he so slow?
"Elder sister Ruge, your necklace is so pretty." Su Nianxia's voice suddenly came from behind.
Hua Ruge's thoughts were pulled back as he turned around and said, "I'm going to Bing'er's place, are you going to follow me?"
"I won't be going, I'm going to continue searching for traces of Jun Tianxia." Su Nianxia said without concealing it at all.
"There's really no cure." Hua Ruge shook his head and walked outside.
"You're not eating breakfast?" Su Nianxia shouted.
Hua Ruge replied without turning his head, "There's definitely something even better to eat at Bing'er's place."
Before she had mounted the Driving Palanquin, she had met Su Yingxue and Fang Lanxin outside the door.
"Morning, how was your sleep in the side chamber?" Hua Ruge took the initiative to greet them.
Su Yingxue really wanted to curse him for his scoundrel's ambition, but after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't dare, so he turned and left.
Fang Lanxin was even more so. With the Fang family's fall, she no longer had an identity advantage, so she no longer had the confidence to be arrogant.
"Humiliating people will always be insulted." Hua Ruge muttered and went up the Driving Palanquin.
The four lifted up the Driving Palanquin and Hua Ruge laid in the midst of the wide Driving Palanquin, squinting his eyes.
Since she was bored, she asked, "Where does your master live?"
"You'll know when you get there." A priest answered.
Hua Ruge felt even more bored: "If I said it, then I didn't say it. Right, did your master get drunk last night?"
"To reply to the girl, no." The priest replied respectfully.
Hua Ruge nodded his head, thinking that perhaps the other party was more concerned about his image, he would forget about everything once he met wine.

She was lying in the middle of the Driving Palanquin with her legs crossed, humming a small tune to pass the boring time.
It didn't take long for the sedan to stop. She came out and saw a magnificent palace. She had seen this place before, and if she remembered correctly, this was also the place.
"Your priest lives in this palace. Isn't he here to entertain the people of other countries?" Hua Ruge asked in surprise.
To put it bluntly, the temporary residence was a bit larger. It was a somewhat particular kind of station, and the people coming and going were all envoys from other countries. It was indeed unreasonable for a High Priest to live here.
"Miss will know once she enters." the priest said again.
Hua Ruge raised his eyebrow, and walked in.
After entering the two outer doors, she did not see a single person. It was so quiet that she could hear the insects' snores.
The atmosphere in front of him was a little strange. No matter how he looked at it, it looked like a trap.
Although Hua Ruge's footsteps were slow, he did not stop just because the one who came to fetch her was Lan Bing'er.
If she continued forward, she would be able to circle around the Reflecting Wall and enter the main hall. She could clearly hear her footsteps making slight sounds as they rubbed against the ground.
In the silence, he walked around the Reflecting Wall in front of the hall and looked into the hall.
The main hall was high up on the stairs, so Hua Ruge had to raise his head to see what was inside.
When she saw him clearly, she froze on the spot.
The morning sun was bright enough to light up the entire palace through the main doors. In the center of the palace, there was a small tea table with a tea set placed on it. There was a person with black hair and a black robe standing next to the tea set.
In the morning light, he stood tall and straight like a jade tree. He was clearly doing something about cultivating his body and mind, but his entire body was exuding a freezing energy. From Hua Ruge's point of view, his face was as perfect as a god's, focused and calm.
The feeling he gave others was that he was an immortal in a painting, someone who had watched the painting thousands of times but was unable to get close to it.
Hua Ruge had the same feeling as well, and did not move forward for a long time.
The person in the hall couldn't help but turn his head over with a smile in his eyes. "Come up, this king allows you to take advantage of me."
