Yu Huan laughed heartily, took an unused chopstick, dipped a little wine in it and brought it to his lips, "Little guy, you'll know if the wine tastes good after you try it."
Xue Huan wanted to stop him, but she said, "Yaibao is still young, how can he drink alcohol?"
Yu Huan said, "It's okay, just give him a taste. It won't make him drunk. Otherwise, he'll always think about it and drink it secretly next time."
Xue Huan acquiesced.
Pei Yi tasted it, and his tender face wrinkled up immediately. He stuck out his tongue and said, "It's spicy."
All the adults at the table burst into laughter.
During the meal, Xue Huan asked, "Mr. Yu, I wonder what you meant by what you said earlier?"
Yu Huan buried his head in drinking and eating meat. "Eat, eat. We'll talk after we finish eating."
This greedy look was so different from the superior temperament he had displayed before. Xue Huan couldn't tell whether he was really capable or a liar.
Never mind, it’s just a meal.
After the meal, Yu Huan sighed with satisfaction, "I haven't eaten so happily in a long time. This worldly food is really to my taste."
Old man?
This was the second time Xue Huan heard him refer to himself as "old". Could it be that he was actually an old man who had the secret to maintaining his youthful appearance?
Secular?
Could it be that he is not a mortal?
Is this man truly capable, or is he just playing tricks? Xue Huan found herself unable to see through him.
Yu Huan bared his teeth and unceremoniously picked at the fishbone stuck between his teeth. Finally, he gulped down a cup of tea and rinsed his mouth. Then he spoke: "What I said before was not a lie. Now that we have eaten, I will give you the method to break the disaster."
He pulled out a red rope from his sleeve and handed it to Xue Huan. "Don't underestimate it just because it looks ordinary. This red rope has magical powers that I have bestowed upon it. When you are in danger, it will automatically protect you from disaster. Well, that's all I have to say. Goodbye."
Yu Huan didn't go out the door, but walked towards the window. Looking at his back, he looked like a master who was about to fly away with the wind.
Xue Huan also thought that he would fly away, but he actually fell straight from the second floor.
"Ouch! I'm going to die from the fall."
Xue Huan: “…”
She actually believed such an unreliable liar? She must have lost her mind.
She threw the red rope directly on the table and decided not to take it anymore.
Unexpectedly, Yabao grabbed the red rope in his hand.
Forget it, just treat it as a scam show. I’ll keep the red rope for Yabao to play with.
Coming out of the restaurant, Gu Yan said, "I have something else to do, so I won't accompany Brother Zhao any further. I'll treat Brother Zhao to tea next time I have the chance."
Xue Huan nodded and watched him leave.
As Yabao lay drowsy on her shoulder, Xue Huan said, "Let's go back."
Wu Qi still felt unsatisfied. "I still want to watch the Baixi Opera. I still have a lot of food to eat. How about you guys go back first? I'll be back later."
Wu Qi is worthy of being a monkey. He becomes wild as soon as he comes out and can't wait to have fun outside before going back.
Xue Huan followed her and gave her another bag of money. "You must be back before dinner, otherwise you will sleep on the street tonight."
Wu Qi quickly agreed.
The sun was quite strong at the moment. Xue Huan herself was fine, but she couldn't bear to let Yabao be exposed to the sun, so she carried him into a nearby teahouse and waited for the coachman to drive the carriage over.
"Brother, I want to pee." Yibao said into Xue Huan's ear.
Xue Huan had taught him that he should call her brother and not mother in public, otherwise her identity would be exposed. Yabao remembered this clearly.
Xue Huan asked Dr. Tea if there was a restroom in the teahouse. Dr. Tea smiled and said, "Yes, please follow me."
Xue Huan instructed Ah Man to stay by the table, and she took Yabao and followed Dr. Tea to the backyard of the teahouse.
"This is it." Dr. Tea pointed to a room.
This room is equivalent to the toilet of a wealthy family. It is separated by a screen and filled with incense.
Xue Huan naturally thought that the incense was to cover up the odor, but it turned out not to be, but a drug to treat her! By the time she realized it, the drug had already taken effect.
She felt dizzy and weak, unable to even stand, while Yibao had already fainted.
This incense is so strong!
She is a monk, and ordinary aphrodisiac incense has no effect on her. It can be imagined that this aphrodisiac incense is specially used to deal with monks.
Xue Huan bit her tongue, trying hard to resist the drowsiness, and entered the space holding Yan Bao. No matter who wanted to deal with her, she would avoid them first, and wait until she was free from the effects of the drug before coming out to find out the person behind the scenes!
How to explain his disappearance out of thin air and being seen by the people behind the scenes?
For cultivators, there are many ways to disappear out of thin air, such as invisibility talismans, teleportation talismans, etc., leaving it to the people behind the scenes to guess.
Anyway, you would never guess that she has a space that she can enter anytime and anywhere.
However, the moment she entered the space, a rope suddenly came and tied her and Yabao together, and the other end of the rope was held in the hand of a man in gray.
In the last moment before falling into coma, Xue Huan recognized who the man in gray was.

Prince's Mansion, outer study.
Pei Ji was having a meeting with the Prime Minister and others. The topic of the meeting was that it was time for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to get married.
Although the rumor that "the prince is homosexual" has been suppressed by the three-year-old prince who appeared out of nowhere, if the prince does not marry, the people will think of this from time to time.
Therefore, a group of trusted ministers headed by Wang Hui sincerely hoped that Pei Ji could put the matter of marrying a Crown Princess on the agenda.
After all, Pei Ji is not young anymore. If he doesn't get married at his age, he can be called a leftover man.
Both Prince Shun, who is older than him, and Prince Ning, who is younger than him, have already married and had children. It is really unacceptable for Pei Ji, as the middle one, not to have married yet.
Pei Ji, who was being urged to get married, dropped a bombshell: "I'm already married."
Prime Minister Wang Hui: "What?!"
Minister of Personnel Zheng Yi asked: "Your Highness, have you married? Who did you marry?"
Cui Hu, the commander of the Imperial Guards, asked: "Your Highness, are you trying to fool us?"
Only the calm and scheming Minister of Revenue Feng Hua did not say anything, but waited quietly for Pei Ji's next words.
Pei Ji then told the story of how he was assassinated and fell off a cliff, nearly dying, but was finally rescued by a hunter's daughter.
"If it weren't for Mrs. Xue, I wouldn't be standing here right now. She saved my life. During my recovery, Mrs. Xue took care of me day and night, and it was inevitable that we had physical contact. Although it was out of necessity, it is a fact that I violated the girl's innocence.
"To avoid Pei Ling's secret pursuit, I married Xue to avoid public scrutiny. We are now husband and wife. Xue has been incredibly kind to me, and we've already sworn in heaven and earth, forming a marriage alliance. She's the only one who can be the Crown Princess."
Pei Ji's words were of course artistically processed, but they were not far from the truth.
"This..." Wang Hui and the others looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
