Prime Minister: What is Li'er talking about?
Ming Li looked into the Prime Minister's eyes and asked, "Father, are you loyal to the Great An Kingdom or to the current emperor of the Great An Kingdom?"
The Prime Minister was stunned by Ming Li's question.
Seeing that the Prime Minister remained silent for a long time, Ming Li got up and left, leaving the Prime Minister sitting dazed under the bare peach tree.
Ming Li returned to her courtyard and, pulling out a jar of peach blossom wine from somewhere, was about to recline on the chaise lounge when a hand appeared on the wall of her courtyard.
Ming Li: ...?! Steady! No panic, no panic! This great master has seen all sorts of situations, this is just a paw, this great master is not scared at all.
Then Ming Li watched expressionlessly as another paw appeared on the wall, followed by a head.
Ming Li: ...?! Could it be a thief trying to steal something from the Prime Minister's mansion? Thinking of this, the wine jar in Ming Li's hand flew towards that head, hitting it accurately.
Then Ming Li heard the thief yelp and fall from the wall.
Ouyang Muyun, who had just climbed onto the wall and was about to look down: ...?! Who am I? Where am I? What just happened?
Ouyang Muyun came to his senses, felt the pain on his forehead, and thought that he was truly unlucky today.
Ouyang Muyun learned today that his savior had returned, so he hurriedly called for the servants in the mansion to bring gifts to the Prime Minister's mansion to thank Ming Li for saving his life that day. He originally wanted to give Ming Li a surprise, but instead of surprising Ming Li, Ming Li gave him a scare.
Ouyang Muyun was not discouraged and continued to climb the wall, ignoring the persuasion of the servants by his side.
Ming Li lay on the chaise lounge and took out another jar of peach blossom wine. Halfway through drinking, Ming Li saw a hand appear on the wall again.
Ming Li: ...?! It seems this thief is stubborn and persistent.
Just as Ming Li was about to smash her wine jar at the emerging head again, she unexpectedly met a pair of beautiful eyes, eyes she seemed to have seen before.
The system couldn't stand it anymore and, fearing its host would continue smashing, quickly said, "Host, don't smash anymore. This person is Ouyang Muyun, the one you saved when you went to save Jiang Fu last time."
Ming Li: ...?! She silently withdrew the hand she had raised. Alright, she remembered. But why was this guy climbing her wall?
Ouyang Muyun had just climbed to the top of the wall. When he looked up, he met a pair of bottomless dark eyes.
Ouyang Muyun: ...?! He was so startled that he almost let go, but thankfully he steadied himself.
Ouyang Muyun recognized Ming Li and smiled somewhat awkwardly. "Hi! Benefactor! What are you doin..." Before Ouyang Muyun could finish speaking, his foot slipped, and he fell ungracefully from the wall, making intimate contact with the ground.
With a bang, silence, a dead silence.
Ming Li: ...?! The corners of her mouth twitched fiercely.
Ming Li looked at Ouyang Muyun, who was lying on the ground and hadn't moved for a long time, and asked speechlessly, "Are you alright? Tsk, it hurts just looking at it."
Ouyang Muyun: ...?! He regretted not checking the almanac when he went out today, he was so unlucky.
Ouyang Muyun struggled to get up from the ground, removed the leaves from his head, looked up at Ming Li, and smiled awkwardly, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern, benefactor."
