Chapter 1239: Empress Star

Jun Xiqing had always been intelligent as a child and was skilled in the art of disguise. She was well-versed in the subject of plastic surgery too, and could tell that this stunning beauty had not had any work done to her face. Her soft and gentle looks were gifted by the heavens.

Most people in this world had similar faces.

Even in the entertainment industry, there were actresses who looked so much like each other that people couldn’t tell them apart.

This stunning beauty looked like Elder Sister Mo’er’s twin. Even her gentle gaze and charm were the same.

Dongfang Ruoli looked at Lu Yeming and smiled gently. “West Duke, it’s been a long time since we last met. Have you been well?”

As Lu Yeming looked at Dongfang Ruoli, he said warmly in a low voice, “Thank you for your concern, Holy Lady.”

“I personally made this pouch. West Duke, please accept it.”

Lu Yeming didn’t reach out to take it. He glanced sideways and saw Jun Xiqing’s small face in the window.

He had been discovered!

Jun Xiqing blinked quickly and laughed under her breath. “So West Duke is meeting a pretty lady here at night.”

Seeing her cold demeanor, Lu Yeming frowned.

Jun Xiqing’s bright watery eyes landed on Dongfang Ruoli’s body and she said aloud, “Wow, this Fairy Sister is really beautiful. The two of you look like a match made in heaven.”

Hearing her words of praise, Dongfang Ruoli blushed and looked at Lu Yeming tenderly.

“The two of you have a nice chat. I won’t bother you.” Jun Xiqing shut the blinds in their faces.

“West Duke, who is that?” Dongfang Ruoli asked.

Without taking another look at Dongfang Ruoli, Lu Yeming gazed at the tightly-shut blinds and said, “Holy Lady, I need to settle something, so I’ll be taking my leave first.”

He walked away.

Dongfang Ruoli froze, her hands still poised to hand the pouch to him. She looked over, only to see Lu Yeming stop in front of her door and knock loudly.

A light and breezy voice floated out of the room. “Who’s that?”

Lu Yeming pressed his thin lips together unhappily and said, “Open the door.”

“West Duke, it’s late and I want to rest. We can talk tomorrow.”

Dongfang Ruoli’s glass eyes darkened. How dare the woman inside shut the West Duke out?

“You’re really not going to open it?” he chuckled.

“No.”

“You’re the little star beside the Queen, the Servant. The Servant will always be in the shadows of the Fairy.”

“I’m only a shadow?”

“That’s right, but the Servant is also the Phoenix Queen. When you turn twenty-one, the Fairy will become a sacrifice.”

“Sacrifice?”

“That’s right, the Fairy is only a sacrifice. The Emperor is going to clear the skies himself and fill it with color again and you will be the one by his side, ruling.”

The three stars were all clustered together, but there was still another at the side, cold and beautiful.

“What about that star?” she asked.

“That star’s fate is tied to the lone Emperor’s.”

“He’s the Emperor and I’m the Phoenix Queen, so why do we need this other ill-fated person? Monk Xuanyi, is there any way to get rid of this star?”

Monk Xuanyi stroked his beard and shook his head mysteriously. “That star is precious. It is also known as... the Empress.”

Dongfang Ruoli lowered her lashes and smiled gently. “Xiao Guo, let’s go.”

“Yes, Holy Lady.”

...

In the room.

Jun Xiqing looked at the man who had just invaded her room. She raised her beautiful eyebrows and said, “West Duke, I never knew that you were such a player. You even have a lover in the Palace.”

As Lu Yeming walked forwards, he looked at her silently. His long fingers pinched her small chin and he asked, “You’re jealous?”

Jun Xiqing smiled and said, “Please let go. Don’t touch me before you’ve given your hands a good wash!”

“...”

West Duke, you’re already my man. I’ve never had the habit of sharing my man, so I think you’re pretty disgusting.”

She had turned his words from just now back on him and said she thought that he was dirty.

What a sharp tongue she had!

At this moment, someone knocked on the door and spoke from the outside. “Master, the Liyuan stage just opened. We should get moving.”

Lu Yeming remained emotionless as he looked lightly as Jun Xiqing. “Liyuan stage is a restricted area in the Palace and is only open during a full moon. I’ll be retrieving the Red Spider Lily from there.”

“Murong Ling is not a bad person, but his father Murong Fu has shown signs of rebelling. If anything happens, Ah Da will take you out of here.”

He was leaving Ah Da with her.

Was it to guard her or keep an eye on her?

But Jun Xiqing only smiled. “West Duke, you’d better hope nothing happens, because I will be making my escape!”
