Su Yingxue and Fang Lanxin walked back dejectedly. When they smelled the fragrance drifting out from the kitchen, they felt hungry.
"Senior sister, you go back first. I'll have someone cook something for you." Fang Lanxin consoled.
Su Yingxue nodded lazily.
Fang Lanxin walked to the door of the kitchen and was stopped by the servant guarding the door: "Young lady, you cannot enter the kitchen."
Fang Lanxin was full of anger, but being made a fool of by the palace maid, he became even more furious: "You servant, you're courting death, I still have to enter this kitchen today."
Hearing that, Su Yingxue stood at the door and watched, wanting to know what had happened.
With that said, Fang Lanxin raised his hand and pushed the palace maid away.
Because Lan Bing'er did not want to show off, he sent all the Priests away. The two were ordinary palace servants, so they were naturally not Fang Lanxin's opponents.
Fang Lanxin pushed the door open and was about to enter.
A calm but dignified voice came from the heat. "Who is it?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Fang Lanxin's foot that stepped over the threshold did not even land on the ground, and his body suddenly froze.
As the pot on the stove was covered, the hot air gradually dispersed, and the people who were busy cooking inside became clearer.
They just saw Lan Bing'er carrying a dish and turning his head to look at the door, her gaze cold and collected without a hint of anger.
Fang Lanxin was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated a few steps, and stuttered: "Big ? The High Priest ? I didn't know you were there? "
"Do you know now?" Lan Bing'er turned to cut the vegetables, and said indifferently.
Fang Lanxin nodded his head repeatedly, "Yes, yes, I will leave now."
She quickly bowed and quickly left.
In the distance, Su Yingxue looked surprised, and asked: "Who's inside? Why are you in such a panic?"
"Yes ?" "The High Priest ?" Fang Lanxin was still stuttering when she spoke, she still could not react to the fact that the grand High Priest would actually cook for her.
When Su Yingxue heard it, his face was also filled with incredulity.
"I really wish I had seen wrongly." Fang Lanxin said with a depressed expression.
Su Yingxue shook his head and walked into the palace, his expression as ugly as ever.
Tuoba Yu rode fast horses and quickly reached the palace. He dressed in military attire that lacked a gentle temperament, and instead had a sharp aura.
In order to give him a pleasant surprise, Hua Ruge did not say that he had found Bing'er.
Therefore, when Tuoba Yu got closer to the palace, he frowned unhappily, took off his helmet, and sat down: Ru Ge, what business do you have with me?
"Tell me first, what happened?" Hua Ruge asked.
As Tuoba Yu drank, he continued, "It's still because we've touched the bottom of the various nations in the past two days, and discovered that our country has no chance of winning either of the two items in Gambling Competition."
This was indeed worrying enough. If he continued to lose the battle, his land would inevitably fall and he would no longer be able to protect it. He might even be able to turn from a large country into a small one from now on.
"What are the two parts of the Gambling Competition?" Hua Ruge asked curiously.
"Military and personal battles are challenges between countries. They are usually battles between neighbouring countries." Tuoba Yu said.
Hua Ruge nodded: "Then you must plan carefully."
After Tuoba Yu heard this, his gaze landed on her.
Hua Ruge got goosebumps from his stare, and could not help but ask: "What are you trying to do?"
Tuoba Yu laughed dryly: "Ru Ge, this competition is related to the rise and fall of the nation, the army lacks a brain, how about you ?"
"Stop." Hua Ruge interrupted him and said, "The country's affairs have nothing to do with me, you mustn't count on me to come up with any ideas, and I don't understand them at all."
"You'll definitely be able to do it." Tuoba Yu thought about what Hua Ruge had done in the past, and felt that she was more qualified.
Hua Ruge shook his head, "I am not the savior of the world, and your old man treats me too badly. I would not waste my time trying to please him, and if I make a mistake, I will be scolded."
"Help me persuade him." Tuoba Yu said to Su Nianxia.
Su Nianxia also shook her head: "Big Sister Ruge isn't someone that can be persuaded."
She had long done what she wanted to do. As for what she didn't want to do, it was very difficult to convince her.
Hua Ruge gave her a praising look.
"When I return to discuss it with royal father, I will definitely give you a condition that will move your heart." Tuoba Yu said in a neither hurried nor slow manner, it was clear that he knew Hua Ruge was someone who would lead with the word.
Hua Ruge directly ignored him. When the conditions are met, it would not be too late for her to think about it later.
Just as everyone was discussing, Lan Bing'er walked in with a tray. On it were the four dishes that she had just made.
Seeing her slowly walking closer, the hand holding the teacup stopped in midair and just looked at her in a daze.
He had never expected that the person he had been daydreaming about would suddenly appear in front of him. Not only was he safe, but his temperament was much more relaxed than before. One glance was enough to tell that he was living a very good life.
Lan Bing'er also saw him. A hint of astonishment flashed through her cold eyes, but they quickly calmed down.
She placed the tray on the table and slowly said: "Fifth Prince, how have you been?"
It's good that you're fine. I saw the jade scroll that you left behind, and sent many people here to scout for information. There was no news about you, but I found nothing.
Tuoba Yu stood up and said with a smile on his face, it was just that the joy of reuniting with him had diluted his calm demeanor, making him appear somewhat childish.

"Thank you, Fifth Prince, for your concern." Lan Bing'er bowed slightly, his voice was warm and polite, but there was no intimacy to it.
Tuoba Yu already knew that she had no intention to do this to him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have left him with only the jade slip before she left.
He had already mentally prepared himself for this, so his loss wasn't that obvious. He maintained his warm smile and said, "I'm relieved to see that you're fine."
Hua Ruge watched on from the side with a conflicted expression.
She felt that the two of them were very suitable. If it was before, Lan Bing'er would feel inferior, but it would definitely not exist anymore.
"Many feelings have been hurt by Wuqing." Su Nianxia supported his chin, and muttered.
Hua Ruge rolled his eyes at her: "How old are you?
"You're older than me, but I've never seen you understand." Su Nianxia retaliated.
Hua Ruge quietly went over to draw circles. She felt that her strength in all aspects was not bad, but in terms of relationships, she did not dare to say that she understood.
Fortunately, Lan Bing'er had quickly told her to go eat dinner and ease her awkwardness.
Because they had reunited, everyone was happy. As a result, they couldn't help but bring more wine and drink it while chatting.
"Bing-Er, your cooking has improved again. It's so delicious." Hua Ruge praised.
Lan Bing'er cutely smiled and said: "It's good that big sister likes it, come and find me whenever you want to eat it in the future."
