All Chapters of Be Modest，My Master of Imperial Guards: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

"Lychee?"Madam Liao frowned and said to herself when hearing Gu Yunxi talk about the Lychee Jelly."Doesn't Concubine Xu know that the lychee is originally the fruit in season in mid-May? It is already July. How come can we get lychees now?"Aunt Li, who was next to her, pulled her sleeves and pouted lips at Gu Yunxi while suppressing a snicker.Madam Liao immediately understood when she saw Aunt Li's hint, and then she stepped back aside and said to Gu Yunxi with a gleeful delight."Hey, now that Concubine Xu ordered you to do it, you have no other choice. However, even the Concubinary Kitchen and the Imperial Kitchen don't have fresh lychees at the moment, let alone our small kitchen!"Madam Liao thought that since Concubine Xu intended to make things difficult for this newcomer, the small kitchen's other members needed not to get involved. She could simply wait and see how the girl would make lychees e

"How insolent!"Leng Qingtang raised his voice and reproached. He hurried to the opposite side of the road to stop the other party.Cheng Wanli followed and held Prince Chen back with his big hands, refusing to free him despite his fit of temper.The reputation of Lord Leng, the Master of the Eastern Depot and the Seal Keeper of the Imperial Ceremony Office, had preceded him.Right now, he seemed to have suddenly emerged from under the ground, accompanied by a mighty man with a black face and many inside officers from the Imperial Ceremony Office, all of whom looked stiff and expressionless.The maid's face sank immediately as she fell on her knees.The two eunuchs who carried the bench knew that the maid from their palace was in trouble. They trembled and buried their heads low.Leng Qingtang stared at the maid in a condescending manner. His dark eyes glittered on his clouded face.

The night fell. Wearing black brocade robe, with his dark hair bunched high, Leng Qingtang was hanging around the faintly lighted street, dressed as an ordinary young man.The downtown street was busy. There was a grand lantern festival on North Street, and businesses of the other blocks were also unwilling to miss the profit opportunities during annual Girls' Day.In front of restaurants and inns, lights were hung up to greet visitors. Even those shops that usually closed their doors at sunset, such as rouge, drapery, and pastry shops, were open late tonight.As he walked, Leng Qingtang would hang some of his red ropes on the trees along the street.During the one year of Yunxi's disappearance, he wove more than 500 red ropes with his own hands without stopping every day.Tonight, he came to the street in casual clothes with two purposes. One was to organize a defense to arrest the initiator of the mannequin case. The

The masked man let go of Gu Yunxi, yet his cold gaze remained on Huanan Xin. In a freezing voice, he spoke."Prince Chen... The son of the tyrant..."Before his words died down, he picked up a cobble and shot it at Huanan Xin."No!"Gu Yunxi rumbled as she intervened with her palm. The cobble shattered midway through the air before it could touch Prince Chen."Are you opposing me for this fool?!"The masked man turned his stern eyes to Gu Yunxi and withdrew his palm, which crackled as it clenched.Gu Yunxi blinked and lowered her eyes in horror."I dare not... But master, your Kungfu is unparalleled. It's unfair for you to kill Prince Chen now that you know he's retarded."The masked man's heart was softened when he heard her gently addressing him as "master".But his face did not stir. Instead, he only wrinkled his lips and discharged sneers from his thr

Cuiqiao's query made Gu Yunxi tense every muscle in her body instantly and keep her mouth a slightly thin line.Gu Yunxi pretended to run her fingers through her hair to smooth it back and made an excuse."Oh, it was too dark that I fell while returning to the Palace."Cuiqiao stirred her eyebrows slightly and seemed to fall into thought and doubt. She suddenly darted a sharp gaze out of her watery eyes, which almost pierced Gu Yunxi."Why is there blood on your dress?"For suddenly discovering something, Cuiqiao raised her eyebrows and stared her bright eyes wide.Da*n it! It should be left while she was in the masked man's arms—Gu Yunxi bowed her head to look at her dress, and her breathing speeded up a bit."It happens to be my menstrual period these days..."The explanation was reasonable.Cuiqiao kept staring at her for a moment and then said unhapp
