"They originally called themselves ghost dealers, but they stopped calling themselves ghost dealers the day they entered the ghost market."

"But I am a human being. I can't stand it anyway. Can you stand drinking corpse oil?"

"I can't stand it either."

After getting a satisfactory answer, Tang Mumu lay back contentedly.

When they returned to the Paradise Inn, the person on his back had already fallen asleep. Rong Yan settled the person down before going to see Xuan Qi.

"Master." Seeing Rong Yan, Xuan Qi saluted with his sword.

"Did you get the news?"

"Reporting to Pavilion Master, there is no news about the Ghost Lord, but the one who is in charge of the Ghost Market now is a woman. People in the Ghost Market call her the Ghost King. The Blood Gardenia is in her hands. The Ghost King lives in the Rebirth Pavilion, which is the attic at the entrance of the Ghost Market."

Rong Yan nodded, "You can go back now. Remember to be careful and don't let anyone know about Tianji Pavilion. The matter of General Ji can be put aside for now. First check the princess's master. Also, let the brothers in the pavilion check the people that Prince Shun has met since he took over Huai County. Find out what relationship each person has with Prince Shun."

"Yes, Pavilion Master."

"Wait a minute, give me the stuff."

Xuan Qi was slightly stunned and almost forgot that he had brought something with him. He hurriedly took off the bag in front of his chest and handed it to Rong Yan. He didn't know what the Pavilion Master wanted him to do by bringing some food and water, and they were all things that women liked to eat.

Xuanqi has an advantage, which is that he doesn't talk much and asks few questions. When he is asked to do something, he is never asked the reason. This is also the reason why Rong Yan likes to use him.

Tang Mumu was still sleeping in the room. Rong Yan felt a little bored, but he didn't want to light the candle and disturb Tang Mumu, so he simply went to the balcony and stood there. From here he could see the Rebirth Pavilion opposite. If he could successfully get the Blood Gardenia tomorrow, Tang Mumu would probably be very happy.

Tang Mumu slept very uneasily. She dreamed that her eyes were dug out and sold, and her head was chopped off by the emperor and hung at the palace gate for people to see. Then she dreamed that her master stabbed Rong Yan's heart with a knife. She cried and begged her master, but the master didn't care because Rong Yan was almost bleeding to death.

Tang Mumu screamed and sat up straight. There was no light in the room, which made her even more scared.

"Rong Yan, Rong Yan, are you there?"

"I'm here."

As soon as he finished speaking, the candlelight in the room quickly lit up, and Rong Yan had already sat down on the bed, looking a little nervous.

Tang Mumu's forehead was covered in sweat. Rong Yan raised his sleeve to wipe it for her. The moment she saw Rong Yan, Tang Mumu finally calmed down.

"Where have you been? I thought you left me alone."

Rong Yan felt a little helpless. Was he such an immoral villain in her heart?

"I saw that you were sleeping too soundly and I didn't have the heart to disturb you, so I went to the balcony to stay for a while. Don't say anything nonsense. When did I say I would leave you alone?"

"Anyway, you are not allowed to abandon me, or you will be in trouble."

"Yes, yes, are you hungry? How about eating something first?"

As soon as Rong Yan finished speaking, Tang Mumu's stomach growled. She was really hungry, but she didn't dare to eat this anymore. What if the dishes served were all human flesh?

"Don't eat."

Rong Yan knew what she was thinking, and poked her forehead helplessly, "Eat, I asked someone to send these from the palace."

Rong Yan opened the bag in front of Tang Mumu. It contained some of the cakes and pastries that she liked to eat, as well as a roast chicken and two water bags. Tang Mumu's eyes lit up.

"Rong Yan, you are like my second parent. I love you so much."

Tang Mumu was so excited that she went over to hug Rong Yan and gave him a big kiss on the cheek. She herself forgot about it after the kiss, but Rong Yan was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.

Tang Mumu held a piece of cake in one hand, his eyes still searching for what to eat next.

"Water, open the water bag for me, I want to drink water."

As both hands were busy, Tang Mumu had to ask Rong Yan for help. The latter sighed, and helped her open the water bag and put it to her mouth. Tang Mumu tilted her head back to drink the water from Rong Yan's hand. Rong Yan was afraid that he would choke if he moved too fast, so he had to cooperate with her movements to feed her water.

"Why don't you eat? Eat some too. Eat the chicken leg. Eat one and leave one for me. And this jujube paste shortbread tastes great too. Eat some too."

Unable to persuade Tang Mumu, Rong Yan silently picked up a piece of green plum tea cake and took a bite. The tea cake melted in his mouth. He had eaten it before, but it seemed to taste better today.

"How is it? Isn't it delicious? I tell you, I have only tasted such delicious pastries since I came to the palace. I really lived in vain before."

"Eat slowly, and eat after you finish talking, so you don't choke."

Tang Mumu nodded with a smile, her mouth moving non-stop. She only stopped after she had eaten every kind of cake and drank some water before patting her stomach in satisfaction.

"I am alive again. This is what people eat."

After eating, drinking and sleeping enough, Tang Mumu was very energetic. She couldn't sit still and insisted on dragging Rong Yan to go up to the roof with him to take a look. Rong Yan couldn't persuade her, so he asked her to promise to go and see for half an hour and then come back to sleep. Only after Tang Mumu agreed did he jump onto the roof with her.

The whole city is full of lights and crowds of people, as if fireworks are blooming. That kind of beauty can only be appreciated by seeing it with your own eyes.

Rong Yan helped Tang Mumu sit down on the roof. Tang Mumu swung his feet and waited for Rong Yan to sit down, then moved closer to him.

"Can you still eat it?"

After Rong Yan sat down, he saw that Tang Mumu had brought up the roast chicken as well, which really opened his eyes.

"At times like this, you should eat roast chicken. It is a great pleasure in life to enjoy the beautiful scenery while eating delicious food. I'll give you a chicken drumstick."

Seeing Tang Mumu eating so happily, Rong Yan took the chicken leg she handed over for some reason. After holding it in his hand, he realized what he was doing and pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly. It seemed that he was getting more and more ridiculous recently.

"Do you know where we are going to find blood gardenia tomorrow?" Tang Mumu did not forget to ask about the main business.

"Rebirth Pavilion, the Blood Gardenia is in the hands of the Ghost King. We will go find her tomorrow."

Tang Mumu nodded. As long as Rong Yan was there, she could always feel at ease, as if no matter how difficult the task was, Rong Yan could always do it.

Tang Mumu leaned her head on Rong Yan's shoulder. It was easy to think after a full meal. Her mind began to be in a mess. She thought about the dream she had just had. She wanted to know what her master was going to do, where the real Second Miss Tang was, and what she wanted to know even more was what Rong Yan would do if he knew that she was not the Princess Rong he was going to marry.

She seemed to be sick, and suddenly she didn't want to leave. She didn't want to leave Prince Rong's Mansion, she didn't want to leave the friends she met here, and she didn't want to leave Rong Yan. This time her illness was very serious.

The master once said that if a person cannot live without another person, then even medicine cannot cure him. She was afraid that day would come for her too.
