"Empress, this is the master that Wei Chen told you about."

"Oh? I wonder who this expert's surname is, and why he is wearing a precious mask. Is it to deceive others, or is he trying to be mysterious?" Qin Hongxiu was skeptical about Qin Shangshu's introduction, "Can you take it off and show it to others?"

The old mama brought tea, placed one on the tea table next to Qin Shangshu, and then placed one on the table opposite. Then she walked to the man with the golden mask and squinted his eyes to look at it.

He said again: "This lady, please take off your mask and report your master's name to your empress on your own. This will also help my master understand you better."

"My path is nameless and rootless, and this mask will not be taken off at will." The man who had not said a word since entering the door suddenly spoke, but his tone was so arrogant, and it also conveyed a complete sense of mystery.

"Presumptuous! How can you claim to be your own way in front of your Majesty? Wouldn't it be an insult to your Majesty..."

"This way can relieve your worries. Your Majesty has never cared about the red tape, so you don't have to worry about it." He said in a cold voice. He who was originally kneeling on the ground simply stopped kneeling and stood up.

He sat down on the chair to the side, reached out and picked up the tea cup, and drank tea.

For the princess who even bowed her head and knelt down to greet her father, what this man wearing a golden mask did was so presumptuous. It could be said that he violated her taboo and made her angry.

Her anger was inexplicable. But she heard that these capable and upright people were born with a strange temper. Coupled with her father's recommendation and the frequent looks she received at this moment, she endured it.

Curious in her heart, she waved her hand to her confidant Nun, who was still worried about her, and said with a wink: "My father should have already told me about my affairs, and I hope my master will give me some advice on what I should do.

"

"Good tea, good tea..." After sitting down, the masked man put down the teacup, smacking his lips with endless aftertaste, squinting his eyes as if he was enjoying it, and repeatedly praised the cup of tea. What he said to the Crown Princess was actually

Turn a deaf ear.

Qin Hongxiu put down the tea cup and made a "pop" sound with some force.

Immediately after receiving another look from his father, he immediately put on a friendly expression and said patiently: "If you like it, I'll just give you some as a gift."

"Then I really have to thank the Crown Princess." There was a strange flash in the eyes under the mask, because in the shadow, what he saw was not so real. After thanking him, he raised his head and cupped his hands towards Qin Hongxiu, and then raised his lips.

Petal's gloomy smile became meaningful because of those words.

"This exchange of courtesy is called business. Everyone is just getting what they need, so why should they recognize each other? But today, this tea can be regarded as a bond between Pindao and the Crown Princess. It seems that the Crown Princess and Pindao not only have a common purpose, but also have a common goal.

They even have the same hobbies, which shows that they have a close bond."

"What do you mean by the Taoist Master's words?" Qin Hongxiu frowned slightly and lowered his voice.

Under the mask, a disdainful sneer passed through the corners of his beautiful lips, and he suddenly changed his name to her with a more respectful name. The man's mood did not change much, he just cupped his hands and said, "Don't you think the poor Taoist and the Crown Princess have something in common?"

What is the need? Then why did the Crown Princess invite Pindao to come? It can’t be that she needs Pindao to preach to the Queen!"

"I can read the scriptures myself. Although I haven't read many Taoist scriptures, the Buddhist scriptures emphasize the cycle of cause and effect. Naturally, I have to worry about what kind of cycle of cause and effect, which actually makes the Taoist priest who has stayed out of the matter also...

I have murderous intentions."

"Pindao didn't say who he wanted to kill. He only knew who he wanted to save."

Smiling, the golden mask and Qin Hongxiu, who wanted to lie to him, played Tai Chi. You talked to me one by one, going around the main topic, and said many side stories. In the end, it was Qin Hongxiu who broke the gap between the two.

That kind of strange harmony, and said: "Taoist Priest, I don't tell secret words, and I don't ask you about the reason. I just want to know what you need after the matter is completed."

You have to ask about the price when buying something, right? Qin Hongxiu thought she was doing a good job.

"No one dislikes money." Golden Mask gave her an ambiguous answer first, and observed Qin Hongxiu's facial expressions and the subtle changes in her eyes. He suddenly stood up with a smile and whispered: "It seems

, the Crown Princess already has the answer in her heart. As long as the Crown Princess is willing to cooperate, we can each get what we need. But what Pindao wants is actually very simple. Pindao only wants Ling Zihan’s life. Pindao wants——Zi Shi

The bloodline will be cut off from now on!"

The eight words after the slight pause are extremely subtle.

The Crown Princess was stunned for a moment, and then she found out the suspicious point that always seemed strange. It turned out that it was the "Purple Bloodline" that made her feel strange, but after thinking about it carefully, it became clear.

He couldn't help but blurt out and asked: "Bloodline of the Zi family? Why, Ling Zihan is not a child of the Ling family, is he an illegitimate child of the Zi family! He is a bastard!"
