"Miss, a letter has arrived from the capital."

Just two weeks before it was due to expire, a letter arrived from the capital from Madam He.

Since she returned, she has been writing to Fu Man'er every few days, and Fu Man'er receives about two letters every month.

There wasn't anything particularly important in these letters; they were mostly just words of concern from Madam Ru for her daughter, and each one could easily fill several pages.

After reading it, Fu Man'er would write back to her, mainly about recent events. Although it wasn't as detailed as what Madam Ru wrote, Madam Ru was still very happy to receive it.

"Three letters this month?" Fu Man'er took the letter from Shuangxi's hand with some surprise.

Moreover, by this time, Madam Ru and the others should have already left the capital and headed towards Yun Town, as stated in the letter received just two days ago.

When Fu Man'er opened it, she found that this time the letter was not a thick stack like before, but just a single sheet of paper, which she read in a few seconds.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Fu Man'er's expression turned serious as soon as she finished reading the letter.

"Qi Jun has come to Yun Town."

Shuangxi was stunned for a moment before realizing, "Isn't that Young Master Qi?"

"Yes, it's him." Fu Man'er folded the letter and put it back into the envelope.

"Didn't he mention in his letter from the capital that he was also coming to Yunzhen?" Shuangxi asked.

“He is coming.” Fu Man’er handed the letter to Shuangxi. “But he didn’t come with Madam Ru and the others. Instead, he came out on his own with a few guards.”

"As soon as they found out he was out, they sent me a letter from the capital. Judging by the time, he should be here soon."

"Have someone deliver this letter to your brother, and tell him to keep an eye on the people coming into the city during this time."

Shuangxi was also shocked after hearing this. "That young master Qi is only a few years older than our fifth young master, yet he dares to bring people from the capital to Yunzhen?"

Otherwise, why would Fu Man'er's face be so solemn? Qi Jun is three years younger than Fu Man'er and has just turned fourteen this year. He is not a child.

It takes ten days to half a month to travel from the capital to Yunzhen, yet this child dared to sneak out with his entourage.

"Go and deliver the message quickly." Fu Man'er became more and more anxious as she thought about it.

When Madam Ru wrote to her, she often mentioned Qi Jun. He was truly a child who was pampered from birth.

His father, Lord Qi, was a soldier who fought alongside the current emperor. Lord Qi only had this one son, and he doted on him greatly during his lifetime.

Now that Lord Qi has passed away, leaving behind only this one son, the current emperor has been very kind to him.

In addition, Qi Jun was a clever and quick-witted child who was greatly favored by the emperor.

But no matter how smart he was, he was still a kid at heart, and he was always mischievous.

Moreover, Madam Ru also said that the child was spoiled terribly and had become somewhat arrogant.

Fu Man'er was really worried. With Qi Jun's personality, would he be able to travel smoothly from the capital to Yun Town?

After two days of worrying, I still hadn't received any news that Qi Jun had come to the city.

Now it wasn't just Fu Man'er who was anxious; the entire Xu family became worried as well.

No matter what, Qi Jun is a young marquis, and he's here to attend the Xu family's wedding. What if something happens to him along the way?

"In that case, I'll have the restaurants along the way keep an eye out for any trace of Young Master Qi." The Xu family owns many restaurants, and when someone travels, they'll need to eat and stay somewhere, so Xu Genshan thought he'd start from that angle.

“I’ve also asked the convoy to keep an eye out for them. They’re coming from the capital, so they should attract some attention.” Xu Genzhu only runs a small warehouse in the town.

However, he gathered a group of people and formed a caravan, which often traveled all over the country and encountered many people.

Seeing everyone offering advice on how to find Qi Jun, Fu Man'er whispered angrily to Xu Yi.

"Once we find that brat, we're going to give him a good beating. He's such a handful."

Xu Yi chimed in, "You're his sister, so you beat him up too."

He knew that Fu Man'er had been thinking about this matter a lot these past two days. After all, Qi Jun's identity was special, and if something really happened, there would be a lot of trouble.

With their wedding just around the corner, it would be upsetting for both of them if anything went wrong.

Therefore, Xu Yi understood that these were just words spoken in anger by Fu Man'er.

"But he's a young marquis. Would it be alright if I beat him up?" Fu Man'er still retained a sliver of rationality. A young marquis wasn't someone you could just beat up casually; you might lose your head.

"You're his older sister, isn't it only natural for an older sister to beat up her younger brother?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Man'er agreed, and she was instantly happy to be able to beat someone up. "Okay, when I beat him up I'm his sister, and when I don't beat him up I'm not."

She had never treated Qi Jun as a younger brother before, but in order to beat him up, she even accepted the identity of his older sister.

Xu Yi couldn't help but feel sorry for this young Marquis Qi, whom he had never met before. After being beaten up by Fu Man'er, he would probably have to lie on his way back to the capital.

After making inquiries from various sources, we finally got news of Qi Jun. You have to admit, this kid is clever.

He changed his identity wherever he went, which explains why Xu Yi couldn't find any definite news about Qi Jun even after asking around in other towns.

Qi Jun had come all the way from the capital, working as a merchant, a young man seeking refuge with relatives, and even spending some time with a variety show troupe. What's more, he had even accompanied refugees.

When Xu Yi heard this news, he couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that their worries about Qi Jun were unnecessary.

"Go and tell Miss to put her mind at ease; Young Master Qi is already in town."

Although they had arrived in town, they hadn't gone to the Xu family's house or the house that Madam Ru had bought. Who knows where that person might be in town?

Xu Yi decided to go out and look for him himself so that he could find him sooner and let Fu Man'er beat him up sooner.

He was unaware that Fu Man'er and Qi Jun had already met; of course, this was also an accident.

Wang Jingjing got pregnant and stayed at home for a while, but then got bored and dragged Fu Man'er out for a stroll.

As we strolled around, we ended up in the Xuanhe Cloth Shop. Of all the shops, we ended up visiting the one where Manager Chen was working.

Seeing that Wang Jingjing's heart was completely with Manager Chen, Fu Man'er simply told the two of them to go out for a stroll while she went to rest on the second floor of the cloth shop.

Just as I reached the corner of the stairs, I heard someone shouting below.

"Isn't it said that the Yun brocade from your Xuanhe Cloth Workshop is the best and most famous? Why are you reluctant to bring such good stuff out to sell?"

"Are you looking down on me because I'm young and unwilling to do business with me, or do you think I'm broke?"

From Fu Man'er's perspective, she could only see the speaker's back; he was dressed in a bright red outfit, his hair was as black as ink, and the jade crown that held his hair up was made of fine jade.

The man was tall and slender, but his voice still carried a hint of youthfulness, so he must be a young master.

"Young master, it's not that we don't want to sell, but how can we not do business when the door is open?" The shopkeeper was also sharp-eyed; the man in front of him exuded nobility, from the jade crown on his head to the shoes on his feet, all of which were extraordinary.

But since it was a stranger, he was probably a distinguished person passing through Yun Town, and he dared not offend him, so he smiled obsequiously.

"The production of this brocade is complicated, and the materials required are even rarer. This batch has all been sold out. What's left in the store now are all items that customers have already pre-ordered."

"You can take a look at our fabric workshop's Yun Duan; it has the same soft feel as Yun Jin."

As the shopkeeper spoke, he took the cloud-forged steel over, hoping to appease the nobleman's anger while also making the sale.

The young man glanced at Yun Duan and said disdainfully, "I said I wanted Yun Jin. Are you deaf or not?"

Helpless, the shopkeeper explained again, and finally said, "Once the brocade is ready, our cloth shop will definitely deliver it to your residence as soon as possible. In addition, please take a look inside and see if there is any cloth that you like. Choose one as our apology to you."

By this point, the steps provided are usually more than enough; they're practically lifting you up by the feet to help you down. Most people would readily accept that.

But this young man not only refused to leave, but also brazenly leaned against the counter, saying, "I don't care, I'm taking this Yun brocade today."

"I'm going there to deliver gifts, and I don't like anything else here except for Yun brocade."

"Hurry up and pack the brocade for me, I'm in a hurry to find someone."

The Xu family lived behind Xuanhe Cloth Shop, a fact known throughout the town, so virtually no one dared to cause trouble.

This was the first time the young man had done this. The shopkeeper gave his assistant a wink, and several of the assistants in the lobby gathered around.

"Young master, our shop cannot fulfill your request. Would you please consider visiting other places?" Their owner had said that Xuanhe Cloth Shop neither caused trouble nor feared it.

No matter what I said, I couldn't make sense to this young man, and the people he brought didn't seem like nice guys either; they were probably here to cause trouble.

"Heh." The young man curled his lips into a sneer. "I thought your Xuanhe Cloth Shop was something special. It's nothing special."

"Qi Yi." The young man narrowed his phoenix eyes and called out. His follower strode forward and punched the shopkeeper. The shop assistant next to him tried to help, but he was knocked to the ground in just a few blows.

"So, are you selling this brocade?" The young man looked down at the person on the ground, appearing lazy and casual.

On the stairs, Fu Man'er gently removed the beaded bracelet from her wrist, and with a flick of her fingertips, the rope binding the jade beads snapped.

She held a handful of beads in her hand. The young man's entourage must have been quite skilled in martial arts, but she didn't target them.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."

"Young master, be careful!" The young man's attendant shouted as he surrounded him, but it was too late.

The young man covered half his face and roared angrily, "Who ambushed me!"
