NovelEnglishChapter 557: Cornered Her
With that, Lu Liangwei got out of the carriage.
Watching the girl walk away without looking back, Long Yang smiled ruefully.
She seemed to have been really mad to use such a harsh method.
After coming out, Lu Liangwei took Chu Jiu’s outstretched hand and got down from the carriage.
Zhao Qian was waiting nearby, and when he saw that his master had not yet come out, he asked, “Your Highness, why is Master not out yet?”
Hearing this, Chu Yi hurriedly came over, his ears perked up, and even Chu Qi shot a glance in their direction.
“What happened to Master?” Zhao Qian asked worriedly.
Lu Liangwei waved them over, then lowered her voice deliberately, “Your master had too much to drink…” There was a pause. “If you want to know, why don’t you lift the curtains and see for yourselves?”

They thought that the Empress was going to say something shocking, like whether Master had done something unspeakable to her in the carriage.
In the end…
Alas, they had rejoiced too soon!
However, something must have happened, seeing that their master had not come out after so long.
The trio exchanged glances, then looked away silently.
They would be courting death to lift the curtains without Master’s permission.
What if they saw something unimaginable? Would they still be able to keep their heads?
Just when the trio was agonizing over whether to risk it or not, the carriage curtains were lifted, and the next instant, their dignified and valiant master was standing tall on the carriage shaft.
“Master.” Coming back to their senses, the three of them hurriedly bowed to him.
Long Yang descended the carriage, then suddenly plunged the two silver needles in his hand into Zhao Qian and Chu Yi’s arms.
“Here’s something to unblock your meridians,” he said coolly and swept past them into Grand Phoenix Palace.
“Thank you for the reward, Master!” Looking at the silver needle on each of their arms, Zhao Qian and Chu Yi thanked him dolefully.
After their master had left, the two straightened up and looked at the unscathed Chu Qi jealously.
“That’s so unfair of Master. Why doesn’t Chu Qi need to have his meridians unblocked?” said Chu Yi indignantly.
Zhao Qian pulled out the silver needle on his arm. “Master is a busy man. Since he forgot, why don’t we stick them on for Lil Qi?”
Chu Yi’s eyes lit up. “That’s right, why didn’t I think of that?” He then pulled out the silver needle on his arm as well and pounced on Chu Qi.
Chu Qi glared at the two, and with a sudden tap of his toes, he leaped onto their shoulders and darted off.

In Grand Phoenix Palace.
Lu Liangwei had just sat down and drunk a cup of water when Long Yang came in.
Seeing him, Zhu Yu hurriedly ushered the servants out and even closed the doors behind her.
Lu Liangwei instantly felt a little uncomfortable.
Looking at the man walking toward her, Lu Liangwei pretended to yawn. “I’m so sleepy. Make yourself at home, Your Majesty. I’ll go and sleep first, sorry I can’t keep you company.”
After saying that, she scurried into the inner room.
With a few strides, Long Yang followed her in and cornered her. “Just now in the carriage, who was it who said that I could do whatever I want after returning to the palace?”
Lu Liangwei held out a finger and poked him in the chest. “It was me, but it’s not dark yet, Your Majesty.”
Looking at her in amusement, Long Yang wrapped her fingers in his palm. “What did you think I was going to do?”
