Qin Dynasty: Starting with clinging to Zhao Ji's thigh

Chapter 193 Ying Zheng's Invitation

Ying Jing lowered his head slightly, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. He was constantly monitoring the emotional changes of the people present through his aura.

The proud Dongjun paid no attention to the emotional fluctuations of the Moon Goddess, the loser, but Ying Jing knew it all too well.

"Ha ha……"

When she looked up, Ying Jing still didn't offer the Moon Goddess even a single comforting glance; it seemed as if Dong Jun was the only one in his eyes.

Similarly, it seemed as if Dongjun didn't see anyone else at all.

From the Book of Songs to the Hundred Schools of Thought, from the changing stars to the common people...

Oblivious to everyone else, the two chatted about everything under the sun.

And so... the Moon Goddess's obsession with deviating from its original path deepened.

Not only the Moon Goddess, but even Ehuang and Nüying, who were still fighting, had stopped at this moment.

Lady Xiang's eyes seemed to be faintly red as she stared intently at the two of them.

But they couldn't get a word in edgewise; they could only stand by and watch, letting their inner prejudices grow stronger while they forced themselves to endure it.

Ying Jing had no idea how much time had passed, but through the window of the Star-Picking Tower, he could see the golden sun hanging high in the sky.

The morning rain had long since stopped, and the blazing sunlight shone on the earth, clearly reflecting the ancient palace.

Many green plants were planted inside Xianyang Palace, and the chirping of cicadas brought a bit of heat and stuffiness, as if the world had been transformed into a furnace for forging all things.

"Grand Preceptor, is Lord Changxin here?"

Outside the Star-Picking Tower, the voices of palace eunuchs could be heard.

"What's the matter?"

Before the Moon Goddess could speak, Ying Jing had already spoken first.

"Lord Changxin, His Majesty invites you to dine at Zhangtai Palace."

The eunuchs outside stood there respectfully, but their voices carried a hint of joy, as if they were happy to have finally found Ying Jing.

Ying Jing frowned slightly, glancing at Dong Jun as if he still had some lingering interest.

As if sensing his reluctance, the corners of this extraordinary woman from the Yin-Yang School slightly curled up.

She held her head high, like a proud three-legged bird, her fair skin appearing even more radiant in the sunlight streaming through the window.

"I have benefited greatly from my conversation with Lord Changxin today. However, I still have a mission entrusted to me by Lord Donghuang, so I cannot stay any longer. We will meet again next time."

Without pausing, as golden flames rose, Fei Yan vanished like a phantom.

It must be said that this profound Yin-Yang technique does indeed seem much more mysterious and intimidating than ordinary martial arts.

In the Star-Picking Tower, only one line of poetry lingered in the air.

"Since the King of Qin has summoned you, it must be for important matters. Lord Changxin, you should not delay any longer..."

Ying Jing didn't pay attention to Fei Yan's Yin-Yang techniques; they just looked impressive.

However, her words made Ying Jing's heart skip a beat.

He had just visited Ying Zheng at the palace yesterday.

Given the other party's personality, he wouldn't just suddenly have the idea to invite him to dine with Zhangtai Palace to deepen their brotherly bond.

"It seems that the matter on Han Fei's side has been resolved..."

Ying Jing sighed inwardly, but did not rush to leave.

He then turned to Lady Xiang: "Your Excellency Moon Goddess, it has been a long time since I last saw you. Please do me a favor."

As he spoke, a gentle smile appeared on his face.

Although he was speaking to the Moon Goddess, Ying Jing never glanced at her.

"I will be waiting for you at the mansion."

Ying Jing winked at Lady Xiang and then slowly walked away.

"My husband..."

Lady Xiang did not pursue them; it seems that Ehuang and Nüying had reached some kind of agreement.

They just stood there, smiling foolishly, their cheeks seemingly flushed.

"Ho ho..."

The moon goddess was also smiling, but no one could see the strange expression behind her azure veil.

However, her slender, white hands, which were folded in front of her lower abdomen, now bore several bright red finger marks.
