Bai Xihe and Little Yunzi left the meditation room. The courtyard was square, and the door was locked. It was as cramped as another cage.

“I’m going for a walk.” Bai Xihe said.

“This…” Little Yunzi looked around. He knew that his master was depressed, so he went to get a lantern and accompanied Bai Xihe out of the courtyard.

The temple was located at the top of the mountain. The mountain wind blew wantonly at night, causing Bai Xihe’s black hair and clothes to flutter.

As it was late at night, Bai Xihe was not wearing palace clothes or any complicated hairstyle. She only used a white jade hairpin to hold it.

Little Yunzi was a eunuch and had lost his manhood. Even so, he still felt that his master was really beautiful. She was like a celestial being in a painting, a spell in the mountains, and a goddess who had fallen to the mortal world.

However, for a woman with no one to rely on, beauty was sometimes not a

good thing.

The lively temple in the day was empty and lonely.

Bai Xihe strolled along the long limestone path and unknowingly arrived at the back door of the temple.

She looked at the closed wooden door and did not move for a long time.

Little Yunzi hurriedly advised, “Master, this is all we can do. You can’t go out…

There are imperial guards outside. If anyone finds out, then…”

“I know.”

Bai Xihe said blankly.

She turned around and walked towards the stone table and stone stool in the open space. She casually found a seat and sat down.

Little Yunzi shivered from the mountain wind. He looked at Bai Xihe, who was wearing thin clothes, and said, “Master, the wind is strong. Let’s sit for a while and go back. You’ll catch a cold.”

“I don’t want to go back yet,” Bai Xihe said.

“Then… Achoo!” Little Yunzi turned around and sneezed.

He hurriedly said, “I’ll bring you a shirt!”

Bai Xihe nodded calmly.

She wasn’t actually cold.

Or rather, she couldn’t feel the cold.

How could this wind be as cold as her heart?

Little Yunzi left the lantern and walked towards the meditation room in the dark.

Bai Xihe was dressed in white and sat alone in the night, like a fairy who had been thrown into the River of Forgetfulness.

Behind her, a shadow approached silently.

The shadow held a cold dagger in his hand, reflecting a sharp edge in the night.

“Who’s there!”

With a shout, the shadow instantly hid the dagger, turned around, turned into the corridor behind him, and fled into the night.

Bai Xihe subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly man in silver armor striding over.

The night was as dark as ink.

It was not until the other party approached that she saw his appearance clearly. Her eyes trembled slightly. “Madam Bai?”

Su Cheng was surprised.

She was dressed up in the day and had a forbidding aura. She really did not look like the Bai Xihe in his memory. It was no wonder that Su Cheng did not recognize her.

However, now that she had removed the palace clothes which distinguished her as the Grand Empress Dowager and did not have time to put on her domineering aura, Su Cheng recognized her.

“Madam Bai, why are you here?” Su Cheng asked in confusion.

“I…” Bai Xihe opened her mouth.

Su Cheng exclaimed and suddenly understood. “Are you here to offer incense too? Are you a devotee of this temple? What a coincidence.”

Bai Xihe lowered her eyes. “Yes, many people came to the temple today.”

Su Cheng said, “Of course, there are many people when the emperor comes to offer incense.”

As long as Father Su had an official diploma, he would know that the royal family would clear the area when they came to offer incense. It was impossible for him to allow commoners to be present.

Of course, if it were anyone else, Su Cheng would still be suspicious.

However, it was Bai Xihe. The other party was a patient of her fat daughter and had stayed at their house a few times. It was impossible for her to be a bad Derson.

Su Cheng continued, “Why did you come out alone so late at night?”

Bai Xihe was hesitating about how to answer when her stomach growled.

Su Cheng understood again. “Are you out looking for food? There’s nothing to eat at this hour.”

“Is that so?” Bai Xi showed a trace of disappointment.

Su Cheng went to touch his pocket.

He had children at home. Usually, he would carry a few pieces of candy with him, but he had changed into his armor and did not bring his pouch.

Thinking of something, Su Cheng’s eyes lit up. “Madam Bai, I know a place where there’s food. Follow me!”

He opened the back door and looked at Bai Xihe, who was sitting on the stone stool. “Let’s go.”

Bai Xihe looked at the door that was opened for her with shining eyes.

She walked out of the door against the wind, as if she had walked out of the cage that trapped her.

Su Cheng brought her to the fruit forest at the back of the mountain..
