In the big yard, sunlight dispersed the morning mist.

The girl was stunned when she saw Lu Qiange.

The young man looked so handsome with pretty facial features. The uniform of imperial bodyguards made his brows and eyes more detached. Even beautiful stars would be overshadowed by him.

"You... You are Yunxi?"

Lu Qiange stepped stiffly to the corridor. He even couldn't tell whether his own tone was longing or doubtful.

"..."

Tu Muxue pressed her lips tightly. Her delicate facial features were covered by mist. Such an emergency was completely unexpected to her.

Her small hands were clenched tight in her sleeves. She was thinking about how she should respond to the situation at this moment.

Lu Qiange squinted his eyes. His eyes which were different from those of the people in Central Plains looked especially deep under the sun.

The purple eyes were only possessed by the noblest royal family in Udan in western tribes.

Tu Muxue naturally knew his identity. The Lone Ranger, who had excellent Kungfu and also was the Third Prince of the Suoluo Family in Udan, had an inseparable emotional entanglement with the real Gu Yunxi.

D**n it! How come she ran into him in the Palace of Da Yi?

"Are you Yunxi?"

Lu Qiange climbed up the stone steps and ran to the girl. His eyes widened and he asked again, feeling surprised and anxious.

He hadn’t been completely confused yet.

A few months ago, his close bodyguard Zuo Le sent him news that Gu Yunxi had changed appearances with another person and the medical sage Tantai Zhufeng, who helped them change appearances, was recovering from his wounds in western tribes at this moment.

The person in front of him looked like Yunxi, but she was not Yunxi at all.

It turned out that this was the true reason why Prince Chen let him visit Jingyang Palace more often!

He wanted him to find out who she was on earth.

"Brother Lu."

After a long silence, the girl recovered her composure first and showed an uneasy smile.

Lu Qiange's eyes flickered.

It was Yunxi's voice, but she wasn't Yunxi definitely.

The bitterness of missing and the hatred of being fooled mixed in his heart, which was like an unstoppable raging fire that engulfed him.

His eyes widened and the blue veins stood out at his temples.

In order to find out the identity of the girl in front of him, Lu Qiange had to forbear for a while and tried to calm down.

Tu Muxue's eyes were sharp and cunning, and she clearly felt the hostility that he was trying to control in his cold eyes.

She rolled her eyes slightly, put her index finger on her pink lips, and whispered to him, pretending to be mysterious,

"Hush, Brother Lu. You should speak carefully. My name has been changed since I entered the Palace, and now I am working in Jingyang Palace. Just call me Xier."

Lu Qiange's face suddenly twitched. His body trembled slightly and his deep purple eyes showed a bit of pain.

The girl’s face was still delicate and beautiful. Looking at her, Lu Qiange was always unable to stop himself from imagining. Every picture was bright red. He would always think about the scene where her face was cut off with strong pain.

"Yunxi, where have you been all these years? I have been looking for you for almost two years."

He asked eagerly with the emotion and excitement of reunion after a long separation.

For the sake of Yunxi, for the real Gu Yunxi, Lu Qiange decided to control the shrewd woman in front of him and find out the people behind her.

"I... "

The girl looked shy and pitiful. She looked into the distance as her white fingers were wrapped around a wisp of hair over her temples. She replied in a clear voice,

"It's hard to say. I met many people and suffered a lot. But now everything is okay since I have moved to Jingyang Palace."

Lu Qiange nodded slowly,

"The master of Jingyang Palace is your sister in the Garden, right?"

During the period when he was recovering from injuries in Leng's Mansion, he heard about something about the Garden from Gu Yunxi intermittently.

The girl raised her head, looked deeply at the man's exquisite face, and smiled in reply.

A faint light flashed silently past his purple eyes.

"I'm free today. Do you have time to go out of the Palace today? Let's find a place and sit down to talk about your experience in the past two years."

The girl fell silent and showed a faint smile,

"Okay. I'll be off duty after dinner. And then I will wait for you in Taizhou Teahouse."

Lu Qiange nodded.

"Okay. See you then."

...

Huanan Jiyan walked out of the main hall with a food box of delicious pastries in her hands. Not seeing Lu Qiange, she asked the servants,

"Where is Zhu?"

The two palace maids shook their heads blankly,

“Your Highness, we were with you in the main hall just now. No one saw him!”

"He must be angry again because we chatted with Her Grace for a long time and ignored him."

Huanan Jiyan stomped her feet with red eyes.

"Your Highness, stop thinking like this. He is not such a narrow-minded person."

The two palace maids surrounded her and comforted her carefully.

"Your Highness... "

A clear voice came from behind, which made their irritating and chaotic hearts become calm.

Huanan Jiyan turned her head and saw that the visitor was Concubine Yu's close palace maid.

"Xier, why you come out?"

Huanan Jiyan was confused. She was not familiar with this palace maid.

Tu Muxue walked to her with a smile and bowed to her,

"Your Highness, you left the silk handkerchief behind and Her Grace asked me to give it to you."

The girl held the pink handkerchief in her hand and gave it to Jin'er then. She stared at the princess with watery eyes, smiling without saying a word.

Huanan Jiyan tilted her head curiously,

"Anything else?"

The girl walked closer to her and said in a low voice,

"Your Highness, can you ask your maids to leave? I have something about Imperial Bodyguard Lu to talk with you."

...

Lu Qiange walked out of the Palace and went straight to Wanhua Tower to meet Fu Danqing.

"You mean the person who has replaced Miss Yun's identity is now in the Palace of Da Yi?"

The top courtesan frowned and her delicate face turned anxious,

"Does Concubine Yu know her identity?"

Lu Qiange shook his head slowly with a stern look,

"It seems she doesn't know it. What is incredible is that the Eastern Depot must have more informants in the Palace, but Leng Qingtang hasn't taken any actions yet. Should it be that he doesn't care about Yunxi's situation in the Palace at all?"

Fu Danqing thought about it.

"Master Leng has already had a close attendant Tu Muxue, hasn't he?"

Lu Qiange was annoyed and smashed the table with his palm,

"I just know that eunuch is unreliable! Danqing, you contact Zo Le and let him heal the medical sage as soon as possible. We should get prepared. Tonight, I will go to meet the fake Yunxi and catch her here. Your people shall send her to western tribes. After I find Yunxi, the medical sage will change the appearances for them again."

"Yes." Fu Danqing still felt wrong, "Your Highness, shall I send some more people to accompany you?"

Lu Qiange waved his hand with a smile，

"No. Even if that woman knows some Kungfu, she won't be my opponent."

...

Time went by and the sun went down.

Lu Qiange, who was dressed in white, waited in the private room of the agreed teahouse.

There was a rush of footsteps and then the wooden door immediately made a slight noise.

"Gu Yunxi" came in gracefully, wearing a water-green skirt. Her hair was in a bun, looking refreshed.

"Brother Lu..."

"Lu Zhu!"

The sweet greeting was interrupted by a sharp shout.

Lu Qiange looked at them in amazement. The Fourth Princess Huanan Jiyan also came!

"What are you doing here?"

Lu Qiange bounced up from the chair, frowned at the Fourth Princess, and questioned angrily.

Huanan Jiyan pouted and sat down on the chair angrily.

"You bring her here?"

Lu Qiange stared at Tu Muxue who was smiling coldly.

Huanan Jiyan was angry and kept shouting and slapping the table，

"Why? Can't I come here? It was Xier who told me that you would have an appointment with her. Zhu, don't look wise! You think you can sneak around without telling me?"

Lu Qiange was furious, pointed at the Fourth Princess, and shouted,

"You fool!"

Tu Muxue focused her eyes on him. A cold light flashed across her calm face, sharp as a knife.

Walking behind the Fourth Princess, she said calmly,

"Brother Lu, don't be angry. It's not easy for me to work in the Palace. Even if I'm off duty, it's always inconvenient for me to meet you. But as long as I come with the princess, Her Grace won't blame me even if I come back late."

The Fourth Princess looked back at the girl bitterly and turned her angry face at Lu Qiange then.

"She called you Brother Lu so intimately. Is she really your wife-to-be?"

Lu Qiange frowned and shouted angrily,

"Don't listen to her. She is talking nonsense. It's not... "

"Then why did you ask her to meet you here?"

Huanan Jiyan felt so aggrieved and tears suddenly filled her eyes.

Lu Qiange was unreasonable about and he turned so anxious. He glared at the triumphant Tu Muxue with bloodshot eyes. He shouted,

"Who are you? You are not Gu Yunxi at all!"

The girl's face was as calm as usual and her slightly raised eyes contained a trace of undisguised mockery.

"Brother Lu, what are you talking about? I am just Gu Yunxi. Do you refuse to recognize me because you have the princess to accompany you now?"

Lu Qiange was extremely angry. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the girl's wrist, staring at her coldly,

"You are not Gu Yunxi. You are not her at all! You have changed identities and appearance with her. You can't fool me!"

The girl paused and then smiled coldly,

"Oh well then, the medical sage Tantai Zhufeng whom His Highness has been looking for is in your hands!"

"I don't care who you are. Since you have met me today, I won't let you escape!"

Lu Qiange's eyes turned sharp and he went to grab Tu Muxue's arm with the other hand.

The girl was so nimble as a swallow to turn sideways and avoid him easily. The next moment she jumped high and her toes touched half of Lu Qiange's cheek.

Lu Qiange frowned and waved his long arm to pull the girl's ankle.

The girl landed on the ground.

When they were having a fierce fight, the Fourth Princess staggered to her feet and fell down then, groaning in pain.

"Zhu... I feel so uncomfortable... "

Hearing it, Lu Qiange stopped the fight and rushed to the table to pick her up.

Her face was blushing. She covered her abdomen with hands as her face twitched.

Lu Qiange was stunned, shouting at Tu Muxue,

"You poisoned her? Give me the antidote!"

The girl showed a gruesome smile,

"I am not stupid enough to hurt the members of the imperial house. As long as you don't make trouble with me again, she will be fine. Maybe after tonight, you will even thank me!"

After saying that, she flew out of the window.
