"Who are you?"

The girl's voice was clear and crisp, like the sound of jade hitting stone.

"...I am Qingshen, the chief attendant of the Marquis of Yongchang."

He concealed his real name.

Qingshen...Qingshen, they sound the same but have different tones.

"Oh, you are the husband my second sister got today."

"I am the fourth young lady of Yingchun Pavilion."

"From now on, you will be my brother-in-law, and only my brother-in-law."

Mu Qingshen found it strange.

Logically, everyone in the Zhu family should know that he has moved in.

But the little girl didn't know it.

Or...it was Cui Lijun, the eldest lady of the Zhu Mansion, who deliberately concealed it from Yingchun Pavilion.

The purpose is to cause trouble in Yingchun Pavilion.

If Zhu Xianyue entered Yanyu Pavilion without knowing anything and something happened between them, then the person he married would naturally become the Fourth Miss.

This plan is very vicious.

Mu Qingshen is a man with an open mind and will not do anything to Zhu Xianyue.

"You should go back quickly. It's always unsafe to stay here."

He kindly reminded me, but that was all he had to say.

But looking at the little girl's appearance, she doesn't seem to be afraid.

I don’t know whether she is ignorant or has a commendable spirit?

The little girl was beautiful, but Mu Qingshen was not the kind of person who would be blinded by lust.

In addition, he has a hidden illness and it is difficult for him to have children, so it is better not to delay her.

"Sir, I came to this yard smelling the scent of crimson weeds. I didn't expect you to be here."

"I'll be frank with you—this crimson weed is poisonous and will harm your male virility, so you won't have any children."

"As long as you help me keep today's secret and don't tell anyone that I'm here, I can help you detoxify."

Mu Qingshen: "..."

Crimson weed?

What is that?

"Where is it coming from?"

His intuition told him that this woman was no ordinary person.

But it was also she who revealed his deepest secrets.

The fact that he had a hidden illness was a secret among the royal family of the Song Dynasty.

Not many people know.

Including good friend Xiao Yucheng.

Therefore, the fourth young lady of the Zhu family does have some abilities.

Oh right... he only knew that she was the fourth girl, and hadn't had time to ask her name.

"It's deep in your hair. The scent of crimson weeds is hard to detect, but I have a naturally keen sense of smell."

"This crimson weed, besides causing infertility, also has the effect of attracting poisonous snakes."

"Sir, you also know that my wife and I have a hard time in the mansion. If we were bitten by a poisonous snake, few people would really worry about us."

Some of the unfavored concubines and annoying concubines are the ones that people want to get rid of as soon as possible.

At this moment, Mu Qingshen was very sure that Zhu Xianyue was indeed a remarkable woman in the world.

She had a hard life.

Most girls of her age are pampered by their parents, acting coquettishly and foolishly, and most of them do not understand the ways of the world.

Just like Zhu Jinyue who made a fool of herself today, this is the normal behavior of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.

But what about Zhu Xianyue?

Judging from her hair accessories, she must be still young, yet she lives so transparently.

This situation is nothing but being forced.

The two of them met by fate.

Besides, he is not the kind of unreasonable and arrogant person.

"Miss Four, you're worrying too much. Even if you don't help me, I won't tell anyone about what happened today."

Zhu Xianyue squinted her eyes and smiled, like a cat sent as tribute from Persia, lazy and noble.

"I really didn't make a mistake."

"Don't call me Fourth Miss anymore. My name is Zhu Xianyue. You can call me Yue'er."

"From now on, we are friends!"
