"If that person in Yushui City last time was indeed Zhu Wushi's man, he might know about Chu Qinghe and me, which could be detrimental to him."

Having learned about the fortune-telling at the appointed time, Yaoyue also learned about Li Dequan's situation through Qu Feiyan upon her return.

Upon hearing what Dongfang Bubai was saying, Yaoyue frowned slightly.

Although Chu Qinghe's skill in using poison was superb.

However, as the master of Yihua Palace, Yaoyue's knowledge is far beyond what ordinary people in the martial arts world can compare to.

He also knew that Zhu Wushi, the Iron-Blooded Marquis known in the martial arts world for his loyalty and courage, was far from being as upright as he appeared to be.

If this matter involves Zhu Wushi, the Iron-Blooded Marquis, then things become different.

After understanding the situation, Yaoyue stopped talking and quickly moved away into the distance.

Noticing Yaoyue's actions, Dongfang Bubai frowned, but also quickly circulated his inner energy to catch up.

Yaoyue glanced at Dongfang Bubai, who was quickly catching up beside her, and snorted inwardly, but said nothing.

And so, under the cover of night, the two figures hurried toward the direction of Nanyue City.

...

The third quarter of the hour of Xu (7:45 PM).

Nanyue City.

It is located in a detached courtyard behind the inn.

At this moment, Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan were tidying up the room, while Chu Qinghe was rubbing his buttocks.

Therefore, going out was the most troublesome thing in ancient times.

The carriage had absolutely no shock absorption whatsoever. Even traveling on the official road, Chu Qinghe was still jolted quite a bit while sitting in it.

What should have been an hour's journey was slowed down considerably due to Chu Qinghe's discomfort, and they only just arrived in Nanyue City.

"It looks like we'll have to build two special carriages when we get back, otherwise we'll suffer every time we go out."

It wasn't until his internal energy circulated several times that Chu Qinghe felt some of the discomfort from the long, bumpy ride lessen.

While tidying the bedding, Xiao Zhao asked in confusion, "Young Master, since we're only staying for one night, two superior rooms at most would be enough. Isn't it a waste to rent this entire courtyard?"

In response to Xiao Zhao's question, Chu Qinghe said calmly, "There are too many rooms in the inn. It would be too troublesome to prepare poison in advance. It would be simpler to have a separate courtyard."

Qu Feiyan asked in confusion, "Why don't we just go to Uncle Liu's house? We can stay at his house."

Chu Qinghe said lazily, "Let's forget about it!"

I'm not familiar with Liu Zhengfeng, and who knows what his retirement ceremony will be like tomorrow?

Staying at Liu Zhengfeng's house at this time was like plunging headfirst into a mud pit.

It's much more comfortable and relaxing to stay in the courtyard of this inn.

After the two women tidied up the room, Chu Qinghe slowly stood up and said, "Let's go! Let's go out to get something to eat and take a stroll around Nanyue City."

Upon hearing this, the two women nodded and followed behind Chu Qinghe.

However, seeing the folding fan that Chu Qinghe was constantly waving as he walked, Qu Feiyan asked in confusion, "But it's so cold, why do you still need to carry a fan, young master?"

As they walked outside, Chu Qinghe said, "It will make it easier to administer the poison."

"Hmm? Makes it easier to poison?"

Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao both looked at Chu Qinghe in astonishment, as if they hadn't expected that Chu Qinghe would take the fan for this reason.

Meeting the gazes of the two women, Chu Qinghe said calmly, "Otherwise what?"

With the system's inventory, whenever Chu Qinghe needed something, the medicinal herbs could instantly appear in his hands with a thought.

But poison doesn't fly onto the enemy on its own; it requires manipulation.

For example, when Chu Qinghe poisoned someone before, although he was quite secretive, he still had to make some small moves.

However, it's different with a folding fan.

The fanning itself a second ago might have just been for show.

The next second, with two flicks of the fan, the poison was applied.

Even if you encounter some experts or meticulous people, it doesn't matter.

As he fanned himself with the paper fan, he first used the medicinal powder that could isolate his internal energy fluctuations to dissipate his internal energy. Then, he fanned himself twice more to silently use his internal energy to transfer the poison to the target, without anyone noticing.

When traveling, stability is key.

Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao couldn't help but glance at the paper fan in Chu Qinghe's hand.

She secretly made a decision in her heart: if she ever encountered someone like Chu Qinghe fanning himself while out and about, it would be best to keep her distance.

Otherwise, I might get drugged at any time.

As the three of them walked out of the inn, many people on the street turned around frequently, their eyes filled with amazement, as they looked at the exceptionally handsome Chu Qinghe and the pretty Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan beside him.

Xiao Zhao and Qu Feiyan were already used to this situation and completely ignored the stares from those around them.

As they strolled leisurely, Chu Qinghe and his two maids passed by Liu Zhengfeng's residence in the east of the city.

However, as Chu Qinghe approached and gently fanned himself with the folding fan in his hand, his gaze seemed to casually sweep around his surroundings.

After strolling around the area and getting a feel for the surroundings, Chu Qinghe finally ended his reconnaissance trip.

Nanyue City and Yushui City are adjacent to each other, and their customs and habits are almost identical.

Moreover, compared to Yushui City, the prosperity of Nanyue City is slightly weaker.

However, there are a few unique delicacies among them.
