Mei Qian Deng was politely asked by the Little General Di like he was asking a god to go out of the palace and meet his Fourth Sister. Female warrior Mei was slightly confused, including a bit of fear and a quite bad feeling.

Fourth Miss Di stood right in front of the slightly opened palace gate. She didn't move at all, as if she was the door god. She and her ladies troop moved around the capital city throughout the year and she was the young miss from the General's Mansion. The guards in charge of the palace gate recognised this unmarried girl. Currently, no one dared to come forward to stop her weird actions, inviting a crowd who didn't aware of the truth to surround the palace gate.

Fourth Miss Di waited and waited. She was very nervous. She felt it was very long yet it was very fast too. Finally she saw Mei Qian Deng's figure appeared from the corner. She wanted to fly over there but she got stopped by the guards, "Fourth Young Miss Di, you're yet to be summoned, you can't enter."

"Ai, it's not like I want to enter the palace to find trouble for His Majesty!" Although in her heart she really wished to punch Chu Xun.

Mei Qian Deng noticed a figure moving nonstop at the imperial palace main gate. While walking, she started to doubt and turned her head to ask Di Mu Yang, "Little General, for what reason you sister ask for me?"

"Ei, this……my sister's matter, it's better for her to tell you personally!"

"It can't be she want to escape from the marriage and want me to get some help for her in the jianghu?"

Di Mu Yang stared at the sky, "Er, this is maybe more trouble than that a bit." The Little General licked his lips. After a short thinking, he added, "Little Young Master Mei, Young Miss Mei, on account of our previous comrade relationship, please help my sister!" He quickly gave Mei Qian Deng a meaningful look.

Mei Qian Deng, "……"

Just as they reached the gate, Fourth Miss Di shouted, "Benefactor!" Following that, she knelt on the ground and hugged Mei Qian Deng's thighs, "I'm begging you, please save me."

Mei Qian Deng had a head of cold sweat. She wanted to pull up the person but Fourth Miss Di was unwilling to stand, causing the spectating crowd to become restless.

"Fourth Young Miss, please stand up first and say."

"No, you have to promise to help me first. Only then will I stand up. Else, I will stay here until I turn into a corpse." Usually as the troop's leader, Fourth Miss Di had seen countless shameless people yet she never imagined a day would come where she used that move too.

Mei Qian Deng looked down at Fourth Miss Di and looked up at the spectating crowd. Even though she was used to being calm, right now she couldn't. She touched her own nose. In her heart, she quickly made a calculation. Fourth Miss Di's intention, she naturally could guess it. But to actually agree to it, it would be against her own principles. What should she do then?

After a few moments, Mei Qian Deng indifferently said, "I promise to help you but let's change the place to discuss."

Fourth Miss Di opened her rabbit-red eyes wide and happily asked, "Really?"

"En."

Fourth Miss Di wiped her face and quickly climbed up. Pulling Mei Qian Deng, she went to the nearest tea house.

With Chu Xun's permission, Di Mu Yang invited Mei Qian Deng out.

Chu Xun was alone in the Imperial Study, checking the memorandums with no one serving him.

He suddenly remembered a matter. Pausing his brush, he called at the door, "Zhu Li."

Zhu Li immediately entered, "Your Majesty?"

"Go help zhen do something."

"Please give your orders, Your Majesty."

"Xiao Jing Zi is treating his injuries at the courier station?"

"It seems so."

Chu Xun rubbed his chin, "Go find him and pass zhen's oral edict, to reward him for his loyalty and protecting zhen, he's allowed for a half year leave. He don't have to return to the palace. After his injuries heal, he can go anywhere he wants to play. The expenses will be fully covered by zhen."

Zhu Li glanced at Chu Xun. Her eyes turned around, "Your Majesty, two personal eunuchs will hamper the work. Xiao Jing Zi after all has served for a long time. He is quick-witted. Right now, it's quite hard for Mei gonggong alone."

Chu Xun glared at her, "You're too talkative. Zhen is just empathising with Xiao Jing Z, not chasing him out. What sort of person have you made zhen into?! Why are you still not going?"

"Yes, Your Majesty is a brilliant master."

Seeing Zhu Li left, Chu Xun took the cup of tea beside him and drank a mouth. Shaking his head he chattered, "Xiao Jing Zi will be in the way. For now, he must not be allowed to return. No way, no way, absolutely no way."

(Xiao Jing Zi: …… T.T)

Fourth Miss Di used four hours to point out all the love-and-kill debts in these few years between her and the little tyrant from the southern part of the capital. About on whatever day he took liberties with which lady from which streets, on whatever day he ate without paying, on whatever day he gambled yet cheated……anyway, in the end he got chased more than ten streets by Fourth Miss Di and beaten. In conclusion, she Fourth Miss Di decided she couldn't marry that f*cker.

"The sanctioned marriage, this humble one will return and discuss again with His Majesty. Asking Fourth Young Miss to relax."

Mei Qian Deng asked for leave with the Di siblings.

"Ei, Young Miss Mei, don't go. I have yet to talk about those b*stard things he did!"

"Zhang Hu Bao is notorious for his misdeeds. This humble one had experienced it."

"Right! That time, he even wanted to grab that Lady Su from the vegetarian shop and bring her back as his concubine! That lecher, pervert already has so many concubines already, I can't just let him ruin me for nothing!" Fourth Miss Di pulled out another debt.

"If this humble one still doesn't return, His Majesty will come searching."

"Then, then Young Miss Mei must help me say it to His Majesty. Let His Majesty take back the edict!"

"Fourth Young Miss's dissatisfactions with Zhang Hu Bao, this humble one will pass them to His Majesty."

By the time Mei Qian Deng coaxed Fourth Young Miss Di out of the tea house, it was already late and even raining. Fourth Miss Di was in the side room, still crying. She already cried three handkerchiefs worth of tears. Each drop of tear was filled with unwillingness. This tomboy girl had grew up this old yet the amount of tears she shed this time was far more than the total of tears she shed in the past twenty-plus years.

Mei Qian Deng stood alone under the roof. This rain already had traces of summer, not really chilling cold but soft. Looking at the rain, she suddenly thought. A strong girl like Fourth Young Miss Di even had times she cried. Then, what about herself? She then thought, unexpectedly, from the time she understood things until now, she had never cry. If she cried, what would it be like?

Female warrior Mei thought back the way Fourth Miss Di cried and pondered: If she went back and cry in front of her father, her father might agree to annul the engagement due to shock and soft-hearted? If her father remained unmoved, she would go to her six brothers and cried at them, making them to work together helping her to convince their father. Right now, remaining hiding inside the palace as eunuch was not exactly a long-term plan.

Just as she planned in her mind, a handsome young man holding a white umbrella appeared outside the tea house entrance. He sized up the dazed Mei Qian Deng. With a tender smile, "Little Seventh, what are you thinking standing here?"

"I'm thinking what I should do to make my father agree annulling our engagement." Female warrior Mei smoothly answered. She spoke without any hesitation while at the same time her eyes looking at Zhao Mo Ran without dodging.

Zhao Mo Ran raised his eyebrows, "Have you think one?"

"It still needs careful planning."

He 'hahaha' three times. He had a shameless and confident face as he raised himself slightly and inquired, "It's raining, I'll send you back to the palace?"

Female warrior Mei thought for a while. Between getting caught in the rain and Zhao Mo Ran's umbrella, she chose the latter one.

Mei Qian Deng in imperial palace gonggong clothes and Zhao Mo Ran in official clothes shared an umbrella as they walked down the main street, drawing passer-by' curious looks.

"Is Little Seventh still angry with me?" Zhao Mo Ran broke the silence.

"At the start, I'm indeed angry."

"Now you're not angry anymore?" It was rare for Zhao Mo Ran and Mei Qian Deng to spend time alone. Right now, he was like a curious baby unable to stop. While walking, his face would unconsciously turn to female warrior Mei's side, his body would tilt too and his steps were quite leaning to her side.

Before Mei Qian Deng answered him, she first signalled Zhao Mo Ran to look at the street. She had been pushed by him to the side of the street.

"Sorry."

"Later I realised being angry of the engagement is useless." It was far better to utilise some of the anger towards working to escape the marriage.

Zhao Mo Ran touched his nose and continued to ask, "Then, for you to disguise as eunuch right now, is it to escape the marriage? Or……" His eyes expression had some ripples, "Or the escaping the marriage is instead your excuse to allow you to remain by his side without any qualms?"

Mei Qian Deng's steps halted. She never expected Zhao Mo Ran would ask this incisive. Asking what even she had never carefully and properly think about.

"Do you like him?" Seeing her not replying, Zhao Mo Ran asked further.

Female warrior Mei stared at the lofty imperial palace. Do I like Chu Xun? En…… "Doesn't hate."

"Then do you like me?"

"I don't like you."

(Lord Zhao's internal heart received ten thousand damage.)
