Harem Daily Life

Chapter 284: Is it really worth taking the risk to come find me?

He Linzhang gently held her hand, placed it on his lips and kissed it: "I have been chasing you for many days, and I haven't had time to shave, which makes Yan Yan dislike me."

Tao Yanyan suddenly woke up: "Your Majesty? Why are you here?"

Seeing that she finally reacted, He Linzhang hugged her tightly and said, "I met Dali, the one you left behind, on the shore. She had been guarding the place where you boarded the ship. When she saw us looking for someone, she told her what you told her. Foolish girl, what do you mean by don't save someone if you can't? If I don't come to save you, what will you do alone?"

He Linzhang regretted a hundred, a thousand times for not giving her a satisfactory Flower Festival, nor a warm birthday party. He also had to watch her being captured by the cult after she threatened to die in order to save him.

He gently touched her forehead, his voice filled with relief: "Luckily I am here, otherwise you would have been taken out to sea, and I would never see you again in my life."

Tao Yanyan raised his head and looked at him: "But it's very dangerous here. We are about to reach the lair of the Demon Cult. You are the king of a country. Is it really worth it for you to put down your country and take the risk to come to me?"

He Linzhang stared at her and said, "If I don't take you back personally, I will regret it all my life and won't be able to sleep or eat." After saying that, he gave her a kiss full of longing.

Because after passing through the fog array is the island where the Demon Cult is located, He Linzhang can't stay any longer, he said goodbye in a hurry: "Yan Yan, I brought a few shadow guards, they are all hidden on this ship, our ship is left in the fog array, don't worry, I will find a chance to come and see you, and when the time is right, I will take you away."

After saying that, he kissed the little concubine reluctantly: "Take care of yourself. No matter what happens, you must protect your own safety first, understand?"

Tao Yanyan nodded, being very obedient.

No matter how reluctant you are, you must say goodbye eventually.

After He Linzhang left, Tao Yanyan took a long time to get up. She thought that he would send someone to rescue her, but she didn't expect that he would come in person!

The annoyance I had felt towards him before was gradually melting away.

When the sun rose completely, the boat carrying the Demon Cult members gradually sailed out of the fog, and a small island not far away was vaguely visible.

Tao Yanyan stood on the deck and looked at the legendary lair of the evil cult, his heart hanging in his throat.

She looked around but didn't see He Linzhang. She didn't know where he was hiding and was very worried.

On the shore, a flag has been raised, as if it is a ceremonial procession to welcome the Demon Lord back to the island.

Tao Yanyan stood on the boat with everyone else, as the boat approached the dock little by little.

The Demon Lord was the first to get off the boat, and then turned around to help Tao Yanyan. Tao Yanyan looked at him twice, then put her hand in his palm and let him lead her down.

This scene was seen by He Linzhang, who was dressed as a stevedore and carrying a sack out from the bottom cabin. He was so angry that he saw stars.

"Hey, are you going or not?" The worker behind urged impatiently. He Linzhang lowered his head slightly and had to carry the sack and get off the boat as if nothing had happened.

He felt extremely bitter and cursed the Demon Lord of the Demon Cult over and over again, not realizing that he might be his brother-in-law.

Tao Yanyan did not dare to look around. He wanted to see He Linzhang, but was afraid that he would be exposed, so he had to follow the Demon Lord without looking around. Finally, he was helped onto a magnificently decorated carriage.

The Demon Lord mounted his horse, and the group took Tao Yanyan towards the Demon Palace.

He Linzhang and the other "coolies" had no chance to follow. Just as he was about to step forward, he was stopped by someone: "Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Hurry up and unload the goods!"

When has the great Emperor of the Great Zhou ever been scolded? His expression turned cold, and the aura he exuded instantly intimidated the supervisor. The supervisor couldn't help but shudder.

He Linzhang didn't want to be exposed, so he continued to carry the sacks. The supervisor looked at his back and fell into self-doubt: "Strange, I just felt like the Demon Lord was by my side, so scary!"

Tao Yanyan rode in a carriage into a magnificent palace. After getting off the carriage, he was taken to a courtyard.

"Miss, the Demon Lord has instructed that you live in this Xianju Pavilion. I am the maid sent by the Demon Lord to take care of you. You can call me Weilan. I have prepared hot water and a change of clothes for you. I will serve you to bathe and change clothes now."

Weilan was very respectful, and Tao Yanyan said: "No need to serve me, you can go out, I will do it myself."

Weilan hesitated, but still obeyed and retreated.

Tao Yanyan looked at the layout here, which was almost the same as the place where she lived in the imperial palace. It seemed that this demon cult was quite wealthy, living in a prime place and using the best things.

She took a nice hot bath to wash away her fatigue, got dressed and washed up, then called Weilan in to comb her hair.

This ancient hairstyle is very complicated. If Tao Yanyan were to comb her hair herself, she would only do a simple flower bud hairstyle and insert a hairpin, which was extremely plain. This is how she did it during the days when she was taken away by the Demon Lord. It looked very simple.

Weilan's hair-combing skills were on par with Mingyue's. Tao Yanyan looked at herself in the bronze mirror, who had become gorgeous again, and said, "I had a maid before, who was just like you, and she combed hair very well."

Wei Lan said modestly: "Miss, you are naturally beautiful. No matter how you dress up, you will always look stunning."

Seeing that she was good at talking, Tao Yanyan smiled and said, "You have a lot of beauties here too. I saw many after I got off the boat. By the way, what is the name of this island? Can you introduce it to me?"

We can't always call it the Demon Island. Looking at the name of the Xianju Pavilion, maybe it should be called the Fairy Island?

Wei Lan was talkative, so she introduced them to her one by one: "This island is called Penglai Island, and this palace is called Penglai Palace. The Demon Lord is the owner of this Penglai Island, and the old lady and the first lady live in the palace. The Demon Lord has not married yet, so there is no mistress yet, and all the affairs of the inner court are managed by the first lady."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a commotion outside the door, as if someone was coming.

Weilan went out immediately to see, but Tao Yanyan did not get up. She thought that maybe it was the woman who had harmed the original owner's mother.

As expected, as soon as Weilan arrived at the gate of the courtyard, she met the Demon Lord's mother, the First Lady.

"Greetings, Madam! The Demon Lord has instructed that no one is allowed to disturb the people living here. Please stay, Madam!" Wei Lan stood at the door, blocking the Madam and her group.

"Oh, I'm his mother. No one can stop me wherever I want to go. You're just a little maid, why don't you step back? Do you want me to put you in the devil's prison?" The eldest lady said sternly.

Wei Lan stood still and said, "Madam, please calm down. I'm sorry I can't move aside. If the Demon Lord knew that I didn't stop them and disturbed the people inside, I'm afraid I'll die immediately."

"Wei Lan, don't take advantage of your kung fu skills to stop me. My martial arts skills are not comparable to yours." After saying that, he pulled out the red whip tied around his waist and hit Wei Lan with it.
