Gu Yunxi stood outside blankly, curled her lips when facing the door, and started crying in a low voice then.

She was turned away twice in one day and she really didn't know what she had done wrong.

She felt so sad, aggrieved, and worried about the physical condition of Master.

At the moment, Leng Qingtang was lying on the bed, his body burning like countless ants crawling in it.

He rolled again and again in the soft bedding, but the feelings of emptiness and excitement in his body were not alleviated at all.

His head was filled with Gu Yunxi’s small face with different expressions, her smiling face, her anxious look, her depressed face, and her sobbing face...

These were all great stimuli to him, which made his blood start burning badly.

Leng Qingtang closed his eyes and bit his lower lip, trembling, and tried to continue to resist.

He raised his arms and tried to gather his internal strength, but ultimately, failed.

In an instant, he was overwhelmed by the desire which surged in his body like terrifying waves of the ocean and drew him into the deepest part of the whirlpool.

He said to himself in his heart, “Girl, forgive me. I... I can't stand it anymore...”

After a great deal of tossing, Leng Qingtang completely gave up and lay on his back on the bed with his red face and strayed eyes.

Although he felt ashamed and guilty for his girl, he couldn't help thinking of her standing at the bedside at this time, taking off her clothes shyly, and revealing her white and flawless body out of the effect of the philtre.

He couldn't help thinking of her eyelashes trembling and her beautiful neck showing a beautiful curve.

Leng Qingtang panted and stretched out his hand slowly into the lower part of his body...

The night was so dark.

Outside the room, Gu Yunxi stood by the door, paying attention to the movement in the room with her ears.

The yard in the back room of the Imperial Ceremony Office was very large. Now only the light in Master's room and a wing-room on the side was still on among the three terraces.

Suddenly, she heard a strange movement inside. He seemed to be trying his best to endure his panting and sighing like a person with a bad toothache.

Gu Yunxi grinned and hissed. Her heart sank.

“Master must be being tortured by the poison, so he locked himself in the room to endure the pain and force himself to detoxify his body.”

“D**n it! After he turned well, I would never let go of Wan Yuyao, that evil woman!”

Gu Yunxi gritted her teeth hard with piercing eyes, clenching her hands into fists.

After a long while, she suddenly heard a long groan which went up and down sharply and became slow and hoarse at the end, as if he had been suffocated for a long time and then got released heartily.

Gu Yunxi didn't know what happened. She widened her eyes anxiously and her brows furrowed.

Gosh!

"Master!"

The door couldn't be opened as a bolt was put on it from inside.

She kicked open the door hard, rushing into the room.

There was a strange smell in the room. The cold fragrance was mixed with the smell of sweat and a smell she had never smelled before. It seemed to be ash, which smelled pungent and fishy.

The person on the bed was in loose clothes and messy hair.

As soon as Gu Yunxi came in forcibly, he quickly awoke from the psychedelic state after he had released his desire to his heart's content, and pulled the quilt to cover the lower part of his body.

Gu Yunxi only saw him straighten his body and cover it with the quilt, but did not see clearly what was under the quilt.

They looked into each other's eyes. Leng Qingtang's face, which had turned pale after the release, immediately turned red again. He stared at her in embarrassment.

Seeing the Master sitting upright on the bed weakly, Gu Yunxi felt like crying. But fearing that the Master would reprove her, she ran to the bed nervously, suppressed her emotions, and asked in a trembling voice.

"Master, how are you feeling? Are you injured? Or is there anything wrong? Let me see..."

She bent down and grabbed the quilt with her small hands, trying to pull it away.

How could Leng Qingtang let her do it? Covering the quilt tightly with his big hands, he shouted in a low voice,

"Girl, I'm fine. I'm really fine. Stop it. Get out!"

Gu Yunxi refused to be obedient anymore. She tried hard for a few times and finally pulled the quilt away from the Master's lap.

Suddenly all turned silent and then Gu Yunxilet out a loud scream. She stepped back a few steps and turned her head away. She closed her eyes hard with a flushed face.

Leng Qingtang raised his fist and slammed it against the bed. He just felt so embarrassed that he was anxious to dig a hole on the ground and vanish in it.

He was tortured badly by philtre just now. When he failed to condense his internal strength to release his desire, he couldn't help dreaming of Gu Yunxi's pretty face while satisfying his erotism by his hands.

In these years of disguising himself as a eunuch, Leng Qingtang completely relied on Masculine Seal and Imperial Doctor Jiang's unique prescriptions to firmly control himself, so he never had a desire for women.

After Yunxi came to the Eastern Depot, he had slept with her on the same bed for several times. But even if he turned somewhat aroused sometimes, he could endure it and was never as embarrassed as he was at this time.

Set up by Wan Yuyao, his body became uncontrollable.

He didn't expect this charming girl to run across him at his first time of self-release and then discover his body secret.

Leng Qingtang calmed down first. He started to tidy up his clothes quickly, and said in a low and hoarse voice with a trace of fatigue,

"Good girl, go to shut the door first before screaming, okay?"

Gu Yunxi lowered her eyes shyly, nodded stiffly, and walked slowly towards the door. Her round and plump chest jumped under the soft leather armor. She cursed herself for being so inconsiderate that she saw what she shouldn't have seen.

A little eunuch ran into the yard in a panic, stood under the corridor, and asked Gu Yunxi.

"Miss Tu, is there anything wrong with the Master? We heard you scream just now, so Wang asked me to take a look here."

"Oh... Don't worry. I'm here with the Master! He is alright! Please just go back to rest."

Gu Yunxi raised her hand and wiped her wet forehead to conceal the extremely unnatural expression on her face.

"Okay, Miss. I'm leaving."

The little eunuch didn't care about it so much. He lowered his eyes and took a bow, leaving gently.

The moment the door was closed, Gu Yunxi seemed to be enlightened. She finally realized that something was wrong!

Wasn't the handsome and talented Master a eunuch?

Since he was a eunuch, how could he have that thing which a eunuch shouldn't have?

Gu Yunxi lowered her head with a frightened expression on her face and then she turned around to face Master with flushed cheeks.

"Master... You are a eunuch... How... How..."

She was so confused that her heart was full of doubts. She couldn't help asking him in a low voice with trembling lips.

Leng Qingtang breathed a sigh of relief, embarrassed and helpless.

Man proposes, God disposes. It seemed that he must explain to her the things which he planned to hide from her for the time being at this time.

After thinking for a moment, Leng Qingtang waved his hand,

"Girl, sit here. I want to tell you some old stories."

...

At the same time, in Kunning Palace…

Empress Qian sat in front of the bronze mirror, watching Sulian skillfully removing the heavy hairpins in her hair with a pair of dexterous hands in the mirror.

Leaning over to the bronze mirror to watch her face carefully, Empress Qian couldn't help feeling sad. When she sighed for the past young days, she suddenly thought of something.

"By the way, when Ji Yan came over to greet me just now, she looked in a low spirit. Didn’t she feel well? Did the palace maids call over an imperial doctor to take her pulse?"

Sulian put the gold hairpins and jewelry into the tray and replied.

"When I came back, I asked the maids in the Princess' House about it, but nothing was wrong. But I just heard that since yesterday, the princess has been learning martial arts with the imperial bodyguards..."

"What?"

Empress Qian asked in a high voice and turned to stare at Sulian in amazement with sharp eyes,

"How could a decent girl stay with the imperial bodyguards every day! Stop removing the makeup. Change your clothes and go to the Princess House with me as soon as possible."

The moonlight was cool and the night was dark.

Empress Qian and Sulian rushed to the Princess House by the faint light of palace lanterns, which shocked the sleepy palace maids.

Empress Qian glared at the creeping eunuchs and palace maids, looked around, but didn’t see her daughter. She was overcome by anger and then shouted loudly,

"Where is the princess now?"

The nanny trembled, bowed her head, and replied,

"Your ... Your Grace ... The princess is in the backyard ... Practicing martial arts."

"Ridiculous!"

The Empress was furious and walked violently towards the backyard.

Before passing the corridor, she heard a loud voice of a young man in the night.

"Stay steady. Okay... Straighten your arms. No, it should be like this..."

Empress Qian gritted her teeth angrily and quickened her pace. She went past the corridor to the backyard, just to see lanterns hanging high on the verdant branches in the brightly-lit yard.

In the middle of the yard, the Fourth Princess Huanan Jiyan wore her hair into a bun and was dressed in purplish-red martial arts clothing and black boots. She was half-squatting on the ground in an extremely indecent posture.

A young imperial bodyguard with a good-looking face was close to her, holding her straight arms with his hands and muttering something.

On the other side, there were two people ten meters away. They were Jin'er and Yaoer, the palace maids. One of them saw Empress with a glance and then turned her head in panic. Her eyebrows were raised in horror and she pulled the hem of the dress of her companion.

Both of them knelt to the ground in a hurry at the same time.

"Your Grace!"
