Mu Yunjin raised the double-edged bat blade in his hand and said, "You've already lost, and you still want to cheat?"

Ling Mo covered his eyes with his hands and hesitantly explained, "Your weapon is cunning and changeable. This is not a fair victory. If you have the guts, fight me with your bare hands."

Mu Yunjin played with the bat knife he had taken from Ling Mo and retorted, "Isn't your weapon just as cunning and changeable? If you're not as skilled as others, then so be it. What's the big deal if you can't afford to play with it?"

Ling Mo snorted softly, limped over to him, spread out his hands and said sullenly: "This time doesn't count. If we fight again next time, return the knife to me."

But Mu Yunjin returned the knife in his hand to Ling Mo, grabbed his wrist that was covering his eyes with lightning speed, and tore off the cloth band on his eyes.

Ling Mo was caught off guard and screamed in surprise, then quickly turned his head and closed his eyes.

Mu Yunjin pressed the man against the tree trunk, leaned in closer to examine him carefully and asked, "Such beautiful eyes, why do you want to hide them?"

"What's it to you? Get out of the way!" Ling Mo closed his eyes tightly. Without the black cloth covering his eyes, he seemed a little nervous and wanted to push him away in a hurry.

"No." Mu Yunjin raised the corner of his mouth proudly and lifted his chin with his hand: "Open your eyes and let your master see."

Ling Mo closed his eyes and angrily attacked him with the double-edged knife in his hand, but he quickly clamped his wrist and pressed it against the tree trunk.

Mu Yunjin said frivolously, "My dear disciple, open your eyes and look at your master."

"Get out of here, let me go. Who is your disciple? I'm going to protect Master Shen. If something happens, will you be responsible?"

"The eldest young master and the prince have something to say, so don't get involved." Mu Yunjin pressed his wrist hard and whispered in his ear, "I am only responsible for you."

Ling Mo's face flushed red, and he angrily yelled, "Who asked you to take responsibility, you eagle? Get away from me!"

"You don't want me to be responsible for you, and you don't intend to be responsible for me, my good disciple?"

Ling Mo's face instantly turned red all the way to his ears. He slightly opened his deep blue eyes, lowered his gaze and stammered, "It's no big deal. Why are you so petty about it? Are you a real man?"

Mu Yunjin smiled wickedly, leaned in close to look into his eyes carefully, and whispered, "What do you think? Am I a man? Do you want to try again?"

"You!" Ling Mo was ashamed and angry, and wanted to hit him eagerly, but he couldn't break free from his restraints.

At this time, Murong Yan entered the Marquis' Mansion and saw Mu Yunjin holding his little cousin against the tree trunk again. He hurried forward and asked, "What are you doing?"

Mu Yunjin turned around and looked at Murong Yan mischievously, and replied, "Playing with the young master."

"Why did you pull off your little cousin's veil!" Murong Yan exclaimed, and hurriedly picked up the black cloth on the ground, patted the dirt off it, and blindfolded Ling Mo.

"What's wrong with his eyes?" Mu Yunjin was slightly stunned and let go of Ling Mo's wrist.

Ling Mo rubbed his wrist angrily, clenched his fist and was about to hit Mu Yunjin in the face, but was stopped in time by Murong Yan.

Murong Yan said seriously, "He has suffered from an eye disease since childhood. His eye color is different from that of ordinary people. He cannot see too much light and will go blind."

Ling Mo pursed his lips and adjusted the black cloth tied around his eyes, sheathed the pair of bat-edged swords and placed them in the pockets on both sides.

Mu Yunjin didn't know what to say for a moment. He lowered his head, picked up his weapon from the ground, and put it into the sheath behind him.

"Why are you fighting again? What about A Xu? Why don't you think highly of him?"

Ling Mo reported truthfully: "I don't know. Young Master Fu came back and took him away. I tried to follow him, but he stopped me."

"My eldest young master and the prince have something to talk about. It's not appropriate for you to eavesdrop." Mu Yunjin explained, straightened his clothes, and jumped into the bushes.

"Took him away again?" Murong Yan muttered worriedly and suspiciously, "Fu Yi has been coming back too often lately. Could something have happened in the capital recently?"

"Your Highness," Ling Mo asked, "Should we go out and look for Master Shen?"

"No need. Fu Yi is deliberately trying to avoid us and won't let us find him."

Murong Yan frowned and shook his head, then simply went into Shen Xu's study and read while waiting for her to come back.

......

On the other side, Ye Wanqing followed Fu Yi to the gorgeous and shining carriage again.

She changed back into her dashing women's clothing and put on the silver mask. As soon as she stepped out of the carriage, she excitedly asked, "Where are you planning to take me to do justice today, Big Brother?"

Fu Yi smiled gently, caressed her hair lovingly, and said, "How can you be a hero without martial arts? Learn some self-defense techniques first, otherwise you'll get hurt easily."

Ye Wanqing said confidently: "I have martial arts to protect myself. I will have no problem dealing with ordinary people."

Fu Yi knew that she had no talent for martial arts, but he didn't want to discourage her hard work, so he said gently: "I know Xu'er has been working hard, and hard work will always be rewarded. Then let me see how far you have practiced martial arts and whether you have made any progress."

"Um!"

Fu Yi took her to a private residence on the outskirts of the city, which had a horse farm and a shooting range with fairly complete facilities.

"This is the private residence of an old friend of my brother. We've already made arrangements in advance, so no one will disturb you when you come here on weekdays. I've reserved a guest room in the west courtyard for you to rest in. It's stocked with clothes and weapons. If you want to learn archery in the future, you can come here."

"Yeah!" Ye Wanqing nodded and let him lead her around the mansion.

The mansion is divided into two courtyards, east and west. The east courtyard is the private bedroom and reception room of the owner, Mr. Lu Sanye. It is said that the owner, Mr. Lu Sanye, is in charge of the medicinal materials business in various places and basically does not live here. He only occasionally brings business partners here to negotiate and work. No entry without permission.

In the middle of the east and west courtyards is a large garden in the middle of a lake. Ye Wanqing followed Fu Yi to take a closer look. Although it was not as spectacular as the garden of the Marquis' Mansion, it was summer now and the lotus flowers in the garden were in full bloom. The green leaves stretched to the sky and the water was invisible. The light pink lotus flowers swayed gently in the wind, which was also a thriving scene.

The garden is surrounded by rockery, flowing water, and greenery. The rockery is free of weeds and wild plants, and the flowing water is free of dead trees and fallen leaves, leaving it clean and clear. Every flower, tree, and blade of grass in the garden is meticulously trimmed.

You can tell at first glance that they are a very sophisticated family.

Fu Yi introduced that since Mr. Lu Sanye liked archery and polo, he built the west courtyard as a shooting range, training ground and horse farm. He also hired several guards who were good at martial arts, which were used for the guards to practice in their spare time.

Whenever a business partner visits, Mr. Lu Sanye will bring like-minded people to play polo here. Every time he comes to Beijing, he will ask Mr. Lu Sanye to discuss business and play polo, so everyone here knows him.

Fu Yi brought her into the training ground. When the guards inside saw someone coming, they cleared the area and retreated.
