"Yes! Feifeng Mountain has a beautiful landscape, and I like it very much. Once I've made enough money here, I'll renovate it. I'll plant it all over with crabapple trees, and from now on, it won't be called Feifeng Mountain anymore. I'll rename it Begonia Manor."
Cen Xi looked at the scenery of Feifeng Mountain with great interest and said.
"Alright, I'll be waiting for the day your Begonia Manor is completed. It really is a great place."
As they were talking, Cen Xi led the people to the warehouse.
Wen Qixi directed people to move things while talking to Cen Xi.
"I need clever and beautiful maids, skilled cooks for the old women, and highly skilled medical servants. Can you do that?"
Cen Xi looked at Wen Qi and continued to make demands.
"Why do maids need to be pretty? You are a woman..."
Wen Qi looked at Cen Xi with amusement, then stopped mid-sentence.
"I like all things beautiful and pretty, like you. Didn't I fall for you at first sight? It's a pity you're already married, otherwise I would have clung to you no matter what."
Cen Xi explained to Wen Qi in detail without any hesitation.
“Miss Cen is truly a remarkable person. You say you like me, but there is not a trace of romantic feelings in your eyes. I admire you greatly. If we talk about the most handsome man in the world, it must be Prime Minister Shen Jinchen of the Grand Banquet. His handsomeness is unparalleled and unmatched. I just wonder if Sixth Miss can resist him.”
Wen Qi looked closely at her serious expression, but her eyes were bright, and couldn't help but tease her.
"Oh? There's someone even better looking than you. You should definitely see him when you have the chance to go to the capital. As for the rest, we'll talk about it when we meet him."
Cen Xi clapped her hands and chuckled softly.
"I wonder what happened to the people in the council hall, Miss? Are they still usable? Perhaps I could send some more useful people up the mountain?"
Seeing that the move was almost complete and that Cen Xi was very agreeable, Wen Qi thought that cooperating with Cen Xi would be very pleasant. So she casually asked about the people in the council hall who had been poisoned.
“Those people should be able to be used. I punished them today, and I’ll make an example of them tomorrow. I don’t believe they won’t obey.”
Cen Xi looked at Wen Qixi deeply, then smiled and said.
"With your abilities, young lady, it's only a matter of time before those people are subdued. My worries were unnecessary. The things have all been moved, and there's no need for me to stay any longer. I'll take my leave now. Take care, young lady!"
After Wen Qi saw that the last batch of goods had been moved out, he smiled and said some flattering words, then bowed and took his leave.
"Alright! I'll be waiting for your good news, Mr. Wen. I also want to meet your wife sometime. She must be an interesting person to have such a wonderful husband like you."
Cen Xi smiled and returned the greeting to Wen Qi.
“Alright! My wife is indeed a wonderful person. She will prepare a grand welcome for the Sixth Miss.”
After Wen Qi finished speaking, he followed his group down the mountain.
Cen Xi smiled and waved her hand before going back to sleep.
She needs to be well-rested to deal with the people in the council chamber.
After leaving the Hidden Sect, she had no idea where to go or how to find the person with the birthmark on their left thigh. So, with the intention of seeing what was going on, she came to the outskirts of Shangyang City.
Unexpectedly, she encountered the Wen family's caravan by chance and was robbed, which led her to Feifeng Mountain.
She genuinely felt that Feifeng Mountain was a good place, and it wouldn't be a bad idea to build her own home there in the future.
Besides, this place is neither too close nor too far from Shangyang City. When she feels like it, she can go to Shangyang City to see Yu Kuang and bicker with him.
When I'm unhappy, I come back to plant some flowers and kill some people. It's nice!
Moreover, the jade ring was turning from white to green at an increasingly faster pace, and she had been down the mountain for more than a month.
Those who are hunting her will surely smell her presence like dogs, and a great battle will be inevitable.
If we follow the description of the Grandmaster, Emperor Yan must be very powerful, and he must still know what he knew in his previous life.
The fact that he was able to use forbidden techniques to pull her soul out of her body when she was five years old shows that he should also be proficient in spirit communication techniques like his grandmaster and master.
Therefore, as long as the Jade Link fails, he will definitely send someone even if he doesn't come himself.
Before she could assess the strength of her opponent, she had to proceed with caution, and it would be best if someone could help her. Therefore, she had to subdue those people before Yan Taizu sent them to kill her.
Cen Xi had no idea that this time she would not only be facing the people sent by Emperor Taizu, but also the perverted man she had provoked at the Prince Heng's mansion in Yucheng who was waiting to kill her.
...
"Still haven't found them?"
Shen Jinchen sat in an inn in Shangyang City, raising an eyebrow as he looked at Shang Se who had just entered and asked her a question.
"Your subordinate is incompetent!"
Shangse, with a pained expression, bowed and apologized.
"Even using the Thousand-Butterfly Attractor can't find her?"
Shen Jinchen gently waved his bone fan and raised an eyebrow as he asked.
“Young master, that woman should have something on her to evade tracking. Qian Yindie can only determine her general direction.”
Shangse said under pressure.
"Shangse, I remember you promised to find that ugly woman within seven days. If you didn't find her, you could go to a brothel and enjoy the treatment of having your thigh touched. Do you think I should send you to a brothel?"
Shen Jinchen waved his bone fan and stared at Shang Se with a smile that was as beautiful as a painting.
"My lord! My lord, I... I've found someone. A few days ago, a woman from Feifeng Ridge at the foot of Feifeng Mountain robbed bandits and became the mountain queen herself. This woman is definitely suspicious; she might be that demoness, no! That ugly woman!"
Shang Se felt nauseous whenever he thought about the scene of those women touching his thighs in the brothel last time, so he quickly came up with a plan and told Shen Jinchen the news he had just received.
"Do you have a portrait of her? What does she look like?"
Shen Jin closed his bone fan, thinking that this was something that woman was capable of doing. Wasn't she just as unconventional at the Heng Prince's residence last time?
"Yes, but she doesn't look like the ugly woman we met in Yucheng, so I can't be sure."
Shang Se breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his young master had finally shifted his attention.
"Last time she was wearing the face of the Prince Heng's beloved concubine, so naturally she didn't look like her. After we finish seeing Wen Daru, let's go and meet that woman."
After thinking for a moment, Shen Jinchen said.
"Yes, young master!"
Shang Se nodded in agreement and quickly stood aside without saying a word.
"Get out! I want to sleep."
For some reason, whenever Shen Jinchen thought of that woman, he felt uneasy, restless, and extremely irritable.
If it weren't for Wen Daru's urgent need to see him, he would have really wanted to travel two hundred miles to Feifeng Mountain to see that woman and figure out what kind of emotions he was experiencing.
"yes!"
As soon as Shen Jinchen finished speaking, Shang Se immediately left the room. The young master is incredibly picky, and his thoughts are harder to fathom than a woman's, so it's best to stay away.
Meanwhile, Cen Xi on Feifeng Mountain was sleeping soundly, completely unaware that the perverted man had held a grudge for so long over that one accidental touch.
She completely blamed the whole thing on the Goddess Nuwa.
