After receiving the candied hawthorn, Qin Jingke looked at Wei Yuanxuan with a smug expression.

Wei Yuanxuan, who had been seen, was completely bewildered and couldn't understand how he had been dragged into this.

Meanwhile, Qin Jingke, looking at Wei Yuanxuan with a smug and boastful gaze, was thinking to himself: "Looks like I'm more important to my sister than this silent guy. I'm so happy!"

Xiao Xi handed the third string of candied hawthorns to Wei Yuanxuan. After receiving the candied hawthorns, Wei Yuanxuan looked at Fang Zixu, then at Qin Jingke.

I'm still thinking about whether I should find someone to brag about it to.

So Wei Yuanxuan looked left and right, but couldn't find anyone to show off to, so he gave up and started eating by himself.

Xiao Xi'er also took out the fourth string of candied hawthorns.

"Awooo—, I'm going to eat you up, I'm going to eat you all!"

As she spoke, Xiaoxi ate the top half of the hawthorn in one bite.

outside the palace

"Young master, someone is investigating you."

"Is someone investigating me? Do you know them?"

"I don't know him. My subordinates investigated him, but found nothing."

Jun Qingzhi looked at the beaded flowers and hairband on the little girl's head in front of her, and remained silent.

"One thing to note: if you encounter this again, deal with it."

Yu opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but then closed it again, only to open it once more, deciding to speak.

"Young Master..."

Hearing Yu He's hesitant words, Jun Qingzhi turned to look at him.

"What are you trying to say? Why are you starting to stammer?"

"Young master... the investigation revealed that our men are superior to ours in every aspect of martial arts."

"Compared to everyone?"

"Yes, young master."

Jun Qingzhi dropped her nonchalant expression and looked at Yu He seriously.

"Can you identify who it is?"

"cannot"

"Have the guards keep a close watch every day. If they pose no threat to us, don't make a move. If they do..."

"Young master, then let's fight them to the death!"

Yu He had barely finished speaking when Jun Qingzhi kicked him in the butt.

"Why are you risking your life? Are you out of your mind?"

"What if they want to kill us?"

"Will they use poison gas?"

"Alright, young master, I'll go buy the poison right away."

After saying that, Yu He left the courtyard.

Jun Qingzhi sat back down on the stool, picked up the beaded flowers and hair ribbons on the table, and was still thinking about which one would suit Xiao Xi'er best.

"Yu Feng"

"Young master, what are your orders?"

"Make a hairband out of pink 'flowing moon brocade,' embroider 'auspicious cloud patterns' and 'flowing light patterns' with silver thread, and hang 'South Sea pearls' at the end of the hairband."

"So, it looks white, but in sunlight, it will have a hint of pink."

"Yes, Master."

"Have the craftsmen make a pair of silver bells and a pair of gold bells, and use the patterns from the Dark Guard Camp on the bells."

"Young master, this is absolutely forbidden!"

Upon hearing Jun Qingzhi's words, Yu Feng immediately knelt down, his brows furrowed.

"Yu Feng, you should know that you cannot question my decision."

Jun Qingzhi, holding a pearl hairpin, approached Yu Feng and tucked it into Yu Feng's hair.

"Your subordinate dares not."

I bet you dare.

"I see you look quite pretty with those beaded flowers on. Why don't you dress up as a woman and spend half a month at the 'Yihong Courtyard'?"

"Young master, I was wrong."

"go out!"

Yu Feng didn't dare say anything more and obediently walked out.

"You two also want to go to 'Yihong Courtyard'?"

The two guards hidden in the shadows exchanged a glance, then spoke in unison.

"My lord, I do not wish to go!"

"Then hurry up and prepare what I need!"

"Your subordinate, I'll go right away."

The two people in the shadows exchanged a glance, then used their light-footed skills to leave.

She was afraid that if she was even a step too late, Jun Qingzhi would send her to the 'Yihong Courtyard'. She had been in the capital for a month or two, and everyone knew that the 'Yihong Courtyard' was the largest brothel in the capital.

After Yu Feng left the courtyard, he saw the women's clothing brought by his fellow guards and looked distressed.

"Yu Feng, why aren't you getting dressed and heading to the 'Yihong Courtyard'?"

"That's a wonderful place; you should definitely stay there for a while—"

"Yu Qian, do you want to fight?"

"Yu Feng, although I can't beat Yu He, I can still beat you."

Upon hearing Yu Qian's words, Yu Feng immediately attacked Yu Qian, saying, "I'll talk if you can beat me!"

"Yu Feng, this is a dress that the young master asked me to bring you. If you ruin it, it won't be a month before you're done with it, will it?"

Yu Qian, holding the clothes and shoes in her hands, dodged the wind's attacks while speaking.

Upon hearing Yu Qian's words, Yu Feng quickly withdrew the internal force from his palm strike.

The palm wind had just stopped in front of Yu Qian's face

"Why did you stop fighting, Yu Feng?"

Yu Qian said to Yu Feng with a grin.

Yu Feng walked up to Yu Qian and snatched the tray of clothes from Yu Qian's hands.

After taking it, he first turned and walked towards his bedside. Then, taking advantage of Yu Qian's inattention, he kicked Yu Qian, causing Yu Qian's upper body to bend backward.

The instant Qian straightened up, he felt a palm strike imbued with internal force heading towards him.

So Yu Qian quickly used his lightness skill to retreat backward.

Yu Qian had just stepped out of the door when he heard a loud "bang" as the door slammed shut.

"Damn it, Yu Feng, do you want to fight? And you're even trying to ambush me?"

"Don't think that just because I can't beat Yu He, I can't beat you!"

"You're too bad, I'm not interested in playing against you."

"Am I really bad? Am I bad?"

Yu Qian, who was outside the door, was furious when she heard Yu Feng's voice coming from inside. She was practically jumping up and down in anger.
