The scheming empress starts by conquering men

After hearing Xuanyuan Qiongchan's identity, Shao Jincong, who had been pushed away, finally relaxed his brows.

However, the sense of crisis remains, just not as strong as before.

Wu Bu, fortunately, fortunately he is just Wu Bu.

If he has another identity, then His Highness and he...

Shao Jincong withdrew his gaze from Shaodian Si Shui and lowered his head.

He did not miss the surprise in His Highness's eyes just now. He had never seen that kind of look before.

Even the look in His Highness' eyes when he looked at him in the hot spring that day was not this kind of astonished look, but... Shao Jincong tried hard to recall.

It seems like love is mixed with playfulness?

He wasn't sure if he had seen it wrong, so he shook his head.

He must have thought too much. He shouldn't have doubted His Highness.

"Greetings, Master Wubu."

Shao Jincong took a breath, took a step back, bowed gracefully, and greeted Xuanyuan Qiongchan.

Xuanyuan Qiongchan stared at Shao Jincong with a serious expression, and after looking him over, he nodded slightly: "Meetings, Master Shao."

The court officials who followed in were shocked when they saw Xuanyuan Qiongchan.

Why is this person here?

They immediately stepped forward and performed the rituals of monarch and subject.

"Your Highness, I greet you!"

The status of witches and fortune-tellers was once higher than that of emperors, and this status was passed down from generation to generation.

Although the witches and fortune-tellers no longer have the power to surpass the emperor, their reputation is still not to be underestimated.

Even His Majesty was respectful to them, and the Xuanyuan Qiongchan in front of him, although a man, was the favorite disciple of the great wizard, and was superior to all the wizards.

The position of the future great wizard will definitely belong to him.

After all, the position of divination is not divided by gender, the one with the most ability will take it, and his ability is even above that of the great divination master, even His Majesty respects him.

If he allowed the court officials to treat him as a monarch and his subjects, how could they dare not show respect?

"Flat body."

Xuanyuan Qiongchan spoke in a calm voice, without any extra emotion on his face as he looked at them.

"Your schedule will be moved forward three days. You can stay in Sucheng for a few days to rest, and then set out for Guifang at noon on the third day."

what?

Everyone looked horrified.

The journey is ahead of schedule?

Wenren bowed and saluted, and said respectfully, "Master Xuanyuan, we have been on schedule every day, why are we ahead of schedule?"

Xuanyuan Qiongchan stared at Wenren expressionlessly. Without explaining, he asked, "Are you questioning me?"

Zun is the self-proclaimed name of the great witch.

Although Xuanyuan Qiongchan is not a great wizard, he is recognized by everyone and has the ability to do so.

"Wei Chen doesn't dare!"

Wenren was so frightened that he dared not breathe.

If the Sixth Princess's unpredictable temperament makes people scared.

This Lord Wubu, who has a very stable mood, is actually frightening.

If the Sixth Princess can still fool around and avoid punishment.

But who dares to fool Xuanyuan Qiongchan? He can see through any lie you tell.

So they didn't dare to doubt what Xuanyuan Qiongchan said at all, but they couldn't help but think too much in their hearts.

If it is true as Xuanyuan Qiongchan said, that they have moved ahead of schedule, then it is not their problem.

It’s because the time calculated by the Beifa witch was wrong, and there was something wrong with the time they left Beifa.

Thinking of this, Wen Ren bowed and said, "Master Xuanyuan, the time we left Beifa was calculated by Beifa Wu Bu. If there is a problem with the time you mentioned, then... then Beifa Wu Bu must have calculated the time wrong."

Xuanyuan Qiongchan hummed with a gloomy expression, ignored them, and looked at Shaodian Sishui.

The moment he saw her, the gloom on his face disappeared, the corners of his tightly pursed lips raised, and there was a hint of doting in his eyes.

"This is Sucheng, the closest city to Guifang. There is a place that is quite interesting. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Shaodian Sishui also nodded with curiosity.

"Of course I'll go. It's my first time here, so I have to go and take a look."

I must go to the city she described!

The most important thing is, if you find that he has not been distracted by the plot and his emotions have not deviated, you can take advantage of the time when you are alone to seduce him.

Thinking of this, Shaodian Si Shui's eyes lit up and she became even more excited.

Xuanyuan Qiongchan was moved by her joyful mood and felt happy as well.

The beautiful fox eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

"That's great. I'm going now."

After he finished speaking, he walked outside first, ignoring the people around him.

"go together!"

Shaodian Sishui shouted and was about to chase after him when she discovered that there was Shao Jincong next to him.

This was the second time she felt Shao Jincong was an eyesore.

However, she did not forget to instruct her servant to keep an eye on Shao Jincong.

"Take Master Shao down to rest."

She whispered to comfort Shao Jincong again.

"I'll be back soon. Anyway, we have to stay in Guifang for three days. If I see anything interesting today, I will take note of it and take you there tomorrow."

She patted Shao Jincong on the shoulder, not caring whether Shao Jincong was willing or not, and chased after him impatiently.

Shao Jincong was left behind by her like this. His face was full of disbelief. Her Highness left like this?

"Your Highness, wait for me, I want to go too..."

However, the servant was one step ahead of him and stopped him.

"Sir, you can't walk around. You're still wearing your wedding dress."

Shao Jincong bit his back teeth, clenched his fists, and watched the two figures going away.

Seeing two people walking side by side, talking and laughing, he just felt it was very dazzling.

He looked down at the wedding dress he was wearing angrily and for the first time he felt disgusted with wearing a wedding dress.

"Go back and take this off. I don't want to wear it."

He entered the post house angrily and went upstairs to change his clothes.

Xuanyuan Qiongchan tilted his head and looked at her walking briskly beside him, but out of the corner of his eye he caught every little movement of Shao Jincong behind the post station.

"I want to marry him."

His voice was low and sounded like a question, but it was actually an affirmative sentence.

I mean, do you want to marry him?

"Brother, do you know?" Shaodian Sishui did not intend to hide it and confessed directly, "Of course I will marry him."

"like him?"

He asked again, this time with a puzzled question.

Could it be that she really likes Shao Jincong that much?

She was willing to ruin her own reputation for him.

Xuanyuan Qiongchan's eyes flickered slightly, and he retracted his gaze and looked straight ahead without looking at her. There was a hint of nervousness in his beautiful peach blossom eyes.

"how is this possible?"

Shaodian Sishui flatly denied it, sighed helplessly, and turned around with a little disgust, facing him, watching him walk backwards.

"Brother, you are very good at divination. You should be able to figure out who I like or dislike, right?"

Xuanyuan Qiongchan's eyes paused for a moment as he looked at her walking backwards. The corners of his mouth inexplicably rose, and the tension in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a doting smile.

"Forget it."

He had calculated her marriage fate before, but it was impossible.

Every time he would encounter great resistance, or even backlash, making it impossible for him to continue his deduction.

"Even if you can't count, how can you think I like him?" Shaodian Sishui teased mischievously; "Even if I like him, I have to like someone like my senior brother. As for Shao Jincong..."

She looked disgusted.

"forget it."

Xuanyuan Qiongchan's ears suddenly turned red, and he glanced at her with a slightly stagnant pupil. Seeing that she was just joking, he sighed secretly and looked away.

"Don't talk nonsense."

"I didn't say anything nonsense, I was telling the truth!"

Shaodian Sishui spread his hands very seriously.

Because she walked with her back to him and didn't look at the road behind her, and also because she thought it was fun to tease Xuanyuan Qiongchan, she blushed when she saw it.

Of course, she didn't see a woman as tall as a child rushing out from the side and running straight towards her.

"Be careful."

Xuanyuan Qiongchan's pupils contracted, and he quickly grabbed her arm, held her in his arms, and spun her around, avoiding the child.

Before Shaodian Sishui could react, Xuanyuan Qiongchan exchanged positions with her and let her go, protecting her behind him.

When he looked at the child, a hint of bloodthirsty coldness flashed across his eyes.

The woman, who was as tall as a child, had a ferocious look on her face. She drew the spear from her sleeve and rushed towards Shaodian Sishui again.

"Go to hell!"
