Mentioning the training ground, Cen Xi instantly recalled the assassins who tried to kill her that night. Since the leader was Yan Taizu, and he could easily break the formation under Feifeng Mountain, the training ground might also be very dangerous.

“My brother said that no one had touched the formation, and the men in black that night did not break in.”

"That's good. From now on, fifty people will be stationed on the mountain for patrols, and the rest will stay at the training ground. The people on the mountain and those at the training ground will take turns. Bai Ze and Liu Ji should stay on the mountain every night. Please pass this message on to them."

Cen Xi thought for a moment with a cold face, and then told A Xiang about her future plans.

"Yes, sister, I'm leaving."

A-Xiang nodded in agreement.

"Go ahead and take good care of Little Fish."

Seeing Xiaoyu hiding in A Xiang's arms, looking at her fearfully, Cen Xi's anger subsided a little.

"Mom, don't be angry. Money can be earned again. When Little Fish grows up, he will help Mom earn money."

When Xiaoyu saw that Cenxi had finally smiled at her, she returned a big smile to Cenxi.

"Okay, Xiaoyu is your mother's good daughter. Remember to practice your skills well and listen to Sister Axiang. I will spend more time with you after I'm done with my work."

As soon as Xiaoyu spoke, Cen Xi's heart softened considerably, and her anger subsided a lot.

"Okay, Little Fish is going now. Little Fish will wait for Mother to come back."

The little girl waved her hand, smiled at Cen Xi, and then left with A Xiang.

After saying goodbye to Xiaoyu, Cen Xi glanced at Wen Qihe, who hadn't said a word.

"Your temperament seems to have changed quite a bit. Now that Zhenxiulou is no longer under my control, may I ask what Miss Wen's intentions are in staying at my Feifeng Mountain?"

“I… Cen Xi, what I said before was true. If I go back to the Wen family, my marriage will be entirely decided by my brother. I beg you, please don’t send me away. Look, I even sent Qiaoying away, which shows that I really want to follow you. Please take me in.”

Wen Qihe knelt down with a thud, and as she spoke, tears involuntarily streamed down her face. Anyone who saw her could feel how extremely sad she was.

"Based on our past relationship, I can give you some money so you can start your own business and break away from the Wen family. How about that?"

Cen Xi had a feeling that Wen Qihe, or rather the Wen family, had an intricate connection with Shen Jinchen, and that keeping Wen Qihe by her side might not be a good thing.

“Miss, I’ve been too busy playing around at home and have no skills at all. I’m afraid I can’t survive on my own. Please accept me with all your heart. I will serve you faithfully from now on.”

When Wen Qihe saw that Cen Xi wanted to let her set up her own business, her face immediately turned very flustered. So she kowtowed to Cen Xi again, begging her to take her in.

Well, now that the servants have come out, no one would believe this woman didn't have a scheme in mind.

Cen Xi looked at her for a while before saying, "Alright, follow me if you want. If you meet someone you like in the future, just tell me, and I'll help you prepare a dowry. If you waste your time and can't get married, then I have nothing more to say."

Cen Xi used to think that this girl really liked Yu Kuang, and her personality was also pleasing. Maybe she could really become a couple with Yu Kuang in the future.

But now it seems that what I said before was nothing but a joke.

Fortunately, Yu Kuang wasn't interested in this woman.

"Miss Xie, Miss Xie."

Seeing that Cen Xi had finally relented, Wen Qihe was overjoyed and grateful, kowtowing repeatedly.

"Since you call yourself a servant, then you have completely abandoned your identity as a young lady of the Wen family. I have given you many chances, but you have chosen to give them up all of them. Therefore, the future honor and disgrace of the Wen family will have nothing to do with you, and your honor and disgrace will have nothing to do with the Wen family either."

“From now on, I will be your master. If I tell you to go east, you must go east; if I tell you to go west, you must go west. You must not utter a single word of disobedience, nor can you betray me. I despise traitorous servants the most. If I discover that you have betrayed me or plotted against me, you will be doomed to die without a burial place.”

Cen Xi found her smile particularly irritating. This person was already like this, and she still wouldn't budge. Well then, she wouldn't be polite in the future and would use her as she pleased.

Let's see what tricks she can pull.

"Yes, whatever you say, mistress. Please bestow a name upon me, young lady."

Wen Qihe bit her lip and kowtowed respectfully.

"Let's call it Poppy."

Cen Xi smiled and glanced at her.

"poppy?"

Wen Qihe turned around abruptly.

"You heard me right, that's the name. Don't introduce it wrong when you introduce someone in the future."

Cen Xi looked at her, waiting for her to continue.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Wen Qihe closed her eyes, tears streaming down her face.

Cen Xi saw this but ignored her, and directly asked Zhu Yanniang, who was standing to the side:

"Where are the girls from your Su Nu Sect?"

“I sent Qingyi to Chunhua Tower first. Look at you these past few days, you’ve been busy dealing with assassinations and having affairs with other men. By the time you get there, it’ll be too late.”

"Chunhua Pavilion is now open for business as usual. I've kept the girls from before, and they're still being charged the same as before. The rules are still the same as what you said before, so don't worry, nothing serious will happen."

"By the way, Qingyi said she's tired of living a life revolving around men and wants some peace and quiet. I was originally thinking of sending her to you as your maid. She's well-versed in medicine, so keeping her around would be beneficial."

"Don't worry, the people I give you are absolutely loyal and won't cause any trouble. Do you want them?"

Cen Xi asked Zhu Yanniang a question, and Zhu Yanniang rolled her eyes at him and rattled off a long string of words. After she finished speaking, she gave Wen Qihe a meaningful look.

Wen Qihe knew that this woman had always disliked her, so she turned her face away and avoided looking directly at her.

"Alright, now that you've taken care of everything, I have nothing more to do. Qingyi, let her go up the mountain. It'll be good for her to come with me."

"However, since she has become my maid, the mountain is still short of a healer. It seems I will have to find someone to go up the mountain."

Cen Xi thought for a moment, then ignored the exchange of glances between Zhu Yanniang and Wen Qihe and answered Zhu Yanniang's question.

"Now that we've finished discussing business, let me ask you something unrelated. That scoundrel swindled you out of ten thousand taels of gold and the Zhenxiu Restaurant. Are you planning to get them back, or not?"

"Mind your own business. Go to Chunhua Brothel and become a madam. If you're too late, all the good men will be snatched up by your girls."

Cen Xi glared at her and said angrily.

This woman just can't stand to see her doing well; she always brings up trivial things when she's about to forget her troubles.

"It seems that Feifeng Mountain is short of money right now. If you could have all of that ten thousand taels of gold and the Zhenxiu Restaurant, then you could sleep soundly from now on."

"Actually, what that bastard meant was that you should come to him in three days and let him sleep with you again. You see, you've lost your virginity, so what's the big deal? You've already slept with him, so whether you sleep with him once or a hundred times, it's all the same. As long as you can't get pregnant, there's nothing he can do about it."
