Chapter 881 The Legend of the Dark River 213
Everyone reacted differently upon seeing Li Chu.
Those who had seen her before didn't react much, while those who hadn't just waved from afar.
Su Muyu simply gave her a polite smile without making a sound.
Su Changhe was more casual; he simply smiled and looked this way as if it were unintentional.
Su Zhe picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Everyone, please meet at Suiyuxuan tonight."
Li Chu smiled and sent a telepathic message to everyone. As for those working in other places outside, she had already asked Mu Qingyang to inform them.
Upon hearing Li Chu's voice, everyone's pupils dilated in shock.
They first turned to look at the others, and saw that only their own people could hear it, while these strange beings could not.
I knew that Li Chu's move wasn't shouted out with internal force, but rather more like a sound transmission technique.
Suddenly, they felt there was hope of getting out; they had a feeling they should be able to get out soon.
Everyone was looking forward to the banquet ending as soon as possible so they could meet at Suiyu Pavilion.
Although their identities made it difficult for them to gather at the palace of the imperial concubines, they had lost their internal energy.
However, there are ways to address this, but it's important to prepare in advance.
After all, even if his internal energy is gone, his basic lightness skill remains.

Broken Yuxuan
After Li Chu returned, she locked all the strange creatures that had been working in her palace in one room.
Upon realizing they couldn't move, the faces of these strange beings all changed, showing signs of fear.
They had never encountered humans like this before.
First they beat them up a while ago, and now they're locking them up whenever they want. They're really too arrogant.
"My lady, why have you imprisoned us here?" Liu Zhu's expression and tone were filled with panic and confusion.
Cui Jinxi and Huanbi had long since stopped daring to speak, and huddled in the corner with their heads down.
They had been beaten the worst by Li Chu before, and they were instinctively terrified of people.
Of course, Li Chu kindly explained to them why they were beaten so badly: it was because the two of them were the most dishonest.
Faced with Liu Zhu's question, Li Chu simply smiled and said, "You can stay here and behave yourselves for the night."
After saying that, she glanced at everyone with a half-smile and said, "If you don't want to get beaten up, you'd better behave."
Those whose eyes met hers all lowered their heads in unison.
"I know, I know."
They're going to report this monster!
Seeing that everyone was behaving themselves, Li Chu left the small room with satisfaction.
Back in the main hall, she waited for the others to arrive.
I don't know who will be the first one here, but judging by the time it takes, they should be arriving soon.
Just as I was thinking that, I heard footsteps approaching.
As soon as Su Changhe entered the hall, he saw the person sitting there pouring tea.
"Are you alone? Looks like I arrived quite early."
He smiled, walked over, sat down, and placed a cup in front of her.
Li Chu glanced at him, but still poured him some tea.
"Have you finished setting all the rules?"
Upon hearing this, Su Changhe continued drinking his tea: "It's over. Judging whether it's true or false has taken me a lot of effort. I wonder if I'll get any benefits when I get back."
Remembering his own rules, his mother, who was of that status, always had someone bring him soup.
Every time I see that dark, murky soup, I have to find a reason to refuse it.
During this time, a fake old father was also put on display for him, and he had to pay attention to what color clothes the old man was wearing at all times.
If he couldn't tell the difference and made the wrong decision, the danger he faced made him somewhat solemn.
They always felt that there was an unknown force they couldn't resist.
Moreover, since he came in, not to mention his internal energy, his weapon has also disappeared, which is really hard to get used to.
Anyway, you have to be careful everywhere, but luckily he is eloquent and can usually fool himself.
So perceptive? Li Chu's gaze swept over him.
If I'm not mistaken, those who go back should all benefit.
As for what it was, she didn't know.
Su Changhe casually asked, "What about yours? You shouldn't have broken any rules, right?"
"If I break the rules, do you think I'm a human or a monster right now? Aren't you afraid to come in alone?"
"Haha, I was just kidding."
As they were speaking, footsteps came from outside the hall.
As soon as Mu Qingyang entered and was about to speak, she saw that Su Changhe was also there.
"The patriarch arrived so quickly?"
"I've never been to the emperor's harem before. It's not out of curiosity, I'm just a step ahead of you."
Su Changhe first made a joke before asking, "Where are the others? Why are they dawdling and not here yet?"
"The people I went to notify all have people staying at their places, so they can only come late at night after everyone has gone to sleep."
Mu Qingyang moved a stool over and sat down on one side.
Su Changhe was a little puzzled: "Why is Su Muyu still nowhere to be seen? We came out one after the other."
"Will we run into trouble?"
"It's okay, he should be able to handle it."
“Maybe they ran into someone else,” Li Chu said.
After waiting for a while, Bai Hehuai and Mu Yumo arrived.
Those who arrived mostly asked why not everyone was there.
Bai Hehuai, in high spirits at the thought of going out, asked, "Why are we the only ones here? Where are the others?"
"I'm here, daughter." Su Zhe's voice came with the sound of footsteps: "This place is really hard to find, I've been looking for a long time."
"Dog Dad, you didn't get taken advantage of by those weirdos in your backyard, did you?" Bai Hehuai smiled mischievously.
Upon hearing this, Su Changhe chuckled and joked, "Uncle Zhe, it seems you've made a huge sacrifice."
"Don't worry, I've kept my innocence," Su Zhe said calmly. "But you guys, have you had any problems in the palace?"
Seeing that his daughter was alright, he then looked at Li Chu.
Bai Hehuai said with a smile, "Of course, no problem, otherwise you might not be able to see us sitting here properly."
"What are you talking about?" Mu Xuewei walked in one after the other with a member of the Xie family.
"Just chatting, Xuewei, have you seen Brother Yu?" Mu Yumo asked.
"No, I hope nothing's wrong with Brother Yu." Mu Xuewei asked with some concern.
Mu Qingyang quickly replied, "With Su Muyu's abilities, there won't be any problem as long as she doesn't break the rules, Xuewei, you can rest assured."
"We're here! You've all arrived!"
Su Changli walked in with Su Muyu, Xie Qianji, and Xie Qidao, followed by several people from the three families.
"Why are you all gathered together?"
"We met on the way here."
Su Changhe asked, "Su Muyu, why are you so slow? We arrived almost at the same time."
"I ran into Changli on the way here, which delayed me a bit," Su Muyu said with a hint of helplessness.
When people saw his expression, they knew something had happened.
All eyes turned to Su Changli, who was easier to question: "What were you all doing?"
Su Changhe glanced at his elder brother, then looked at the others: "I was working in the imperial kitchen, and I was a little hungry when I came out, so I went to eat something."
"And then? That's it?"
