As for the employment orders between Mu Ling, Wang Jin, and Song Zhang, for fear of scaring his brother, he simply covered it up with a sentence "earning some extra money occasionally".

Qin Feng had a question, "Then how did you get involved with those two?"

He was referring to the Crown Prince's Mansion in the Eastern Palace and the Princess's Mansion.

Qin Yao hissed and rubbed her temple unconsciously, "It's a long story, but it has something to do with your troublemaker brother-in-law."

Originally, she just wanted to make some money quietly, but who would have thought that a master-disciple relationship would involve these big guys.

Brother-in-law? Which brother-in-law?

Qin Feng realized later that he only had this one sister in front of him.

Oh, you are talking about Liu Ji.

But from the tone of her voice, he thought he had other brothers-in-law.

Qin Feng glanced at Qin Yao unhappily and said, "I'm not saying, but why do you two look like familiar people?"

Qin Yao coughed twice to divert Qin Feng's attention and brought the topic back to the topic. She briefly told him the relationship between Gong Liangliao and Liu Ji, as well as the relationship between Gong Liangliao and the national teacher and the prince. Bai He also mentioned it.

Hearing Qin Yao say that she had beaten Bai He to the point of vomiting blood, Qin Feng's heart almost jumped out of his chest. He was reluctant to say the words of accusation, and after a long pause, he reminded her in a gentle tone: "Don't be so reckless in the future!"

Qin Yao nodded, "I know." If it were her, she would definitely not be reckless.

Qin Feng understood that it must be Liu Ji who was bringing disaster to his sister.

But before he could say anything, the tightly closed door was suddenly pushed open, and Liu Ji, who had already walked away, suddenly strode in.

Shocked, he asked, "Madam, what did you say? Si Kongjian is actually the teacher's eldest disciple?"

Qin Feng was startled by his sudden appearance and asked in confusion: "Didn't you leave?"

"I just came back." Qin Yao answered for Liu Ji.

Qin Feng was speechless. It seemed that you knew he was eavesdropping.

Looking at Liu Ji's handsome face which looked even more handsome due to his anxiety, Qin Feng's temples began to throb.

It's over. His sister must have been bewitched by this vixen. She didn't care about eavesdropping. Then, wouldn't outsiders have heard everything they just talked about?

Qin Yao seemed to know what her brother was thinking and gave him a reassuring look. Liu Ji, who was not supposed to listen, did not hear a word.

However, when Sikong saw this, Qin Yao thought that it was better to tell Liu Ji. It would just let him know that in the court, even if they were once close masters and disciples, they would turn against each other because of their different positions.

"I haven't called you yet, why did you come back early?" Qin Yao asked unhappily.

Liu Ji was still digesting the explosive news that his teacher and the national teacher were master and apprentice. He was stunned by her question and answered unhappily:

"My lady, don't you want to take a bath? I have prepared the bath water. I am afraid that the water will get cold so I will come to call you."

Of course, my uncle’s was not left out either.

Liu Ji suppressed his surprise and nodded to Qin Feng, who looked distressed. "Brother, yours is ready too. You've been tired all day, and a bath can help you relax."

Qin Feng got goosebumps when he was called brother. He stood up and said seriously, "You should just call me uncle."

After telling Qin Yao to get up early the next morning and go to the west of the city to look at houses together, he went back to the attic to rest.

Liu Ji followed Qin Yao into her room, told her where to put her clothes, took her coat and prepared to wash it. Before closing the door, he couldn't help but ask excitedly:

"We'll go see the house tomorrow?"

Qin Yao: "Yeah."

Liu Ji's eyes lit up, and he deliberately said, "Madam, didn't you say that we can't use my uncle's money?"

"Yeah." Qin Yao turned around and raised the corner of her mouth proudly at him, "We can't use it, but I can."

Liu Ji: "Goodbye!"

He slammed the door shut, walked to the water vat with a cold face, drew water to wash her clothes, rubbing them vigorously. Jealousy made him crazy, and he wished he could tear the clothes apart.

The noise of washing clothes in the yard continued for a long time, and then suddenly became quiet. Qin Yao didn't care about it. She soaked her whole body in the bathtub, closed her eyes comfortably, and enjoyed the feeling of being wrapped in hot water.

One cannot take a bath for too long. Qin Yao got up after soaking for more than 40 minutes, dried herself, put on her clothes, opened the door and poured water.

Unexpectedly, a figure was standing at the door. When he heard the door open, he immediately turned around, put his hands on his waist, tilted his head in confusion and asked, "Madam, how can a disciple treat his mentor like this?"

What's wrong with letting the teacher stay with him in Liujia Village and enjoy his old age!

Does a different stance mean you should do something to hurt your mentor?

Qin Yao shrugged, "I don't understand, no comment."

"Get out of the way, you're blocking me from pouring water."

Qin Yao motioned for him to step aside, dragged the large bathtub out of the door, poured the water into the drain, and carried the empty bathtub back to the room.

Clap your hands, close the door and lie down.

Liu Ji stood outside her door for a while, thinking and thinking, but couldn't figure it out, so he gave up and went to bed.

I'm going to look at the house tomorrow.

Since he didn’t have to go to the Imperial Master’s Mansion for the time being, Liu Ji thought he could finally sleep a little longer in the morning.

He didn't want to sit up from the bed when a rooster crowed in the early morning.

Everything in front of me was gray and it was not even daybreak yet.

I fell asleep and wanted to continue sleeping, but I heard soft recitation from the next room.

Erlang, you are really awesome!

His desire to win was aroused, and he could not sleep. He quickly got out of bed, lit the candlestick, and tied on the 'Wenquxing Protection' headband that had accompanied him for many years. He was determined to work hard!

From the time I set out from Liujia Village until now, most of my time has been spent on the road. After arriving in the capital, I went straight to see Gong Liangliao, and my studies have been put on hold for more than a month.

Liu Ji opened the book box, took out the books and notes left by his teacher, opened the window, and read silently in the cool morning breeze.

Immersed in the ocean of knowledge, all worries disappear, the mind gradually becomes clear, and the restless mood becomes calm.

The sky was turning pale.

Awang and Yin Le got up one after another. Yin Le cleaned the yard and tidied the stables, while Awang prepared breakfast for the family.

Erlang's reading voice gradually became louder, and Dalang also got up and took his small sword to do morning exercises in the middle of the yard.

Sanlang and Si Niang dawdled in bed for a while, looked up and saw that nothing was wrong at home, and then fell asleep again.

The moment the morning light leaked into the courtyard, the door of the east wing finally opened, and Qin Yao walked out, stretching lazily.

She first taught Dalang a few moves, then tied all her hair up into a rough bun, lay down in the corridor to do strength training, and mobilized all the energy in her body.

After the morning exercise, the mother and son had breakfast feeling refreshed.

"Is uncle still sleeping in?"

Sanlang rubbed his sleepy eyes, secretly delighted in his heart, it turned out that he was not the lazy guy in the end.

Si Niang excitedly raised her hand and volunteered, "Mother, I'll go wake up uncle!"

Qin Yao smiled and nodded, "Go ahead, ask him to come over for breakfast, and then we'll go out to look at houses together today."

The children asked in surprise: "Can we go too?"

Qin Yao nodded: "Yes, let's go."

Anyway, she isn't the one taking care of the child, and it will be more lively with more people.

Sanlang shouted happily: "Oh! Let's go out and see the new house~"

Dalang and Erlang's eyes were particularly bright when they smiled.

The light in Liu's eyes instantly disappeared. (End of this chapter)
