A moment later, the small black boat docked at the bottom of the majestic lead ship.
Daoist Xuanji flew tip to the deckhouse while Ye Jingtang landed on the deck. Countless chief constables of the Black Office had been waiting for a long time. They all went forward to congratulate him.
“Sir Ye, you are amazing…”
“My humble heart’s admiration for you is like a surging river …”
The chief constables of the Black Office were all experts. Although they were not in Jianghu, their yearning for the title of Martial Chief was not much lower than that of ordinary Jianghu people.
In addition, Ye Jingtang was usually very easy-going in the Black Office and had a good relationship with them. At this moment, a few familiar people were preparing to take out their sabers and ask Ye Jingtang to carve two words on them.
Fortunately, Dumdum quickly walked down from the deckhouse and put on a dignified expression. “If you have nothing to do, go patrol. Why are you all gathered here?’1
The deck immediately fell silent, and the chief constables fled in all directions.
Ye Jingtang breathed a sigh of relief. He went forward and cupped his hands. “Your Highness!”
Dongfang Linen stood with her hands behind her back and tried her best not to be excited. She sized him up. “How are your injuries?”
“They’re nothing serious. I just need to recuperate for a while.”
Dongfang Liren turned around and walked into the deckhouse. When there was no one around, she raised her hand and pressed Ye Jingtang’s wrist to check. Seeing that the injuries weren’t serious, she felt relieved and said with a little envy, “It’s only been a few months, but you’re already the Saber Chief…”
Ye Jingtang smiled and said, “If Your Highness hadn’t taught me the Dragon Slaying Decree and given me the Jade Bone Picture, how could 1 have defeated Xuanyuan Chao? My victory was all thanks to Your Highness’s nurturing.” “Hmph-d How long have you been the deputy commander? You’ve already learned how to flatter like officials…” Dongfang Liren was in a very good mood, and her tone softened. “You took the first credit in pacifying the Prince of Wu’s rebellion, and you won the Saber Chief title. I will definitely reward you handsomely. Tell me, what reward do you want?”
“Reward…” Ye Jingtang tilted his head and looked at the beautiful Dumdum. He thought for a moment and said, “I did these things to try to make it up to Your Highness. As long as Your Highness doesn’t mind rhe previous offense.” Dongfang Liren had asked Ye Jingtang to pay off the debt he had incurred at the Bright Yang Pool. She didn’t expect him to work so hard. Even though she didn’t mind too much, she still felt ashamed and embarrassed deep down in her heart.
Although Ye Jingtang didn’t take the initiative to ask, she couldn’t break the rules of a superior being clear about rewards and punishments.
Dongfang Liren slowly walked up the stairs and glanced at Ye Jingtang. “How about 1 paint you a picture album?”
“Hmm?” Ye Jingtang stopped. When he thought of Dumdum’s lifelike painting skills, his eyes lit up. “Tears of a Heroine?”
Dongfang Liren took a deep breath and nodded. “If you want it, I naturally won’t dampen your mood, even if it’s Tears of a Heroine. However… 1 won’t paint those shameless scenes. I will only paint things like holding hands…”
Ye Jingtang hurriedly shook his head and advised seriously, “It’s just painting. This is art about the human body, and you can’t look at them from a secular perspective. Of course, if Your Highness feels uncomfortable, I won’t force you…”
Dongfang Liren saw that Ye Jingtang wanted it very much. Although she felt that he was a pervert, she couldn’t bear to reject him. She took a step back. “In any case, I won’t paint those abnormal plots. At most, 1 will paint horse riding… Cough…”

Ye Jingtang felt that he had completely led Dumdum astray and wanted to laugh. But before the corners of his mouth curled up, his waist was pinched. He hurriedly raised his hand. “Hiss I’m injured…”
Dongfang Liren’s annoyed expression changed. She quickly let go and massaged Ye Jingtang’s waist. “Alright, go lie down in your room and rest well. Ning’er and Third Lady are in the last room on the second floor, the one with two doors. You… The empress dowager is upstairs. Don’t be too unbridled!”
Ye Jingtang understood what he meant and said helplessly, “I’m wobbly when 1 walk. What can I be unbridled about? Then, 1’11 go rest first. When will Your Highness finish painting?”
“Do you think my work is the same as those small workshops’ New Year paintings? I can t finish an entire book in a few months…”
“Hehe…”
At the same time, on the top floor of the deckhouse…
The bird, who had been wandering outside for a few days and had nothing to do, pretended to have worked hard and contributed a lot. It lay half-dead on the balcony and let Hongyu feed it little strips of meat.
Daoist Xuanji leaned against the couch, unfolded a painting, and told the empress dowager about her experience at Jun Mountain Terrace.
But the empress dowager clearly wasn’t in the mood to pay attention to this. After chatting for a while, she suddenly asked, “Shui’er, tell me honestly. Did you do something to Ye Jingtang when you went out?”
Daoist Xuanji was baffled. She turned to look at the curious woman who was pretending to be serious. “Do what?”
“That… You must understand what 1 mean. Don’t pretend to be stupid!”
Daoist Xuanji indeed understood. She shook her head and sighed. “Why don’t you suspect that Ye Jingtang did something to me?”
“How is that possible? Your martial arts skills are so good. If you don’t give him a chance, what can he do to you? Moreover, Ye Jingtang is such a righteous person. How can he have any thoughts about you? On the other hand, you’re flirtatious…”
?
When Daoist Xuanji heard this, she finally understood how Luo Ning felt when she questioned her. “Don’t tell me you think rd take the initiative to seduce Ye Jingtang?”
“Yes,” the empress dowager said solemnly. “1 saw it with my own eyes just now. You gave him your wine gourd and let him drink…”
“Inviting him to drink is seducing him? Then, since he set off fireworks to make you happy, doesn’t that mean he’s already deeply in love with you?” freewe(b)novel.c(o)m
The empress dowager was stunned. She blinked her big eyes and leaned closer. “Is that so?”
Daoist Xuanji was speechless and said seriously, “You are the empress dowager of the dynasty. You have to pay attention to your status. What if Liren hears this?” novelbuddy .com
The empress dowager felt that it made sense, so she stopped talking…
