The man being held by Mu Qing looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old.
He was wearing a white dress with black bamboo embroidered on the cuffs.
He has fair skin, red lips, and handsome facial features that are exceptionally delicate.
If such delicate features were on a man, they would look somewhat feminine, but on him, they didn't look feminine at all. It was a perfect fit.
"Scholar, I thought you were going back to your hometown after the Spring Examination. I didn't expect you were still in Kyoto!"
The man who was called scholar by Mu Qing moved his calm black eyes to Mu Qing and said nothing.
"Let's go, let's go out first!" Mu Qing made the decision on his own.
There was a barely perceptible glint in Baili Feiyue's eyes.
Mu Qing called him a scholar all the time.
Indeed, he looked like a scholar. But why did she feel so terrified when she heard that he was just an ordinary scholar?
Mu Qing is such an idiot.
This is a ghost scholar!
This guy is a fucking master!
Even in her prime, if she were to go head-to-head, she would definitely not be a match for the "scholar" in front of her!
As soon as the three of them walked out of the auction venue, they discovered that there were many more small vendors and tea stalls outside. Mu Qing simply found an empty seat, sat down, and ordered a pot of tea.
"Scholar, please sit down." Mu Qing greeted him casually.
The man glanced at them and sat down.
Mu Qing said with a grin, "Tsk, what a coincidence, we meet again."
Baili Feiyue simply couldn't bear to watch, Mu Qing, oh Mu Qing, you look just like a lecher who is flirting with a grown girl!
The man raised his eyelids slightly, "Miss Mu called me, what's the matter?"
Baili Feiyue's hand, which was holding the teacup and was about to drink, trembled slightly. This... this... this scholar is not only handsome, but also speaks too gently.
She spoke in a soft voice like a shy girl, and I didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear of scaring him...
This forms a sharp contrast with Mu Qing's loud voice.
Of course, this is in stark contrast to his invisible, inherent level of danger.
"It's okay. Since we've met, let's sit down and chat." Mu Qing, who was completely familiar with Baili Feiyue, introduced her, "Ling Jing, this is the scholar I met outside the crime scene when my father and I were handling a case a few days ago. Uh, by the way, what's your name, scholar?"
The man looked at her again with his calm eyes, paused, "Su Yan."
Mu Qing was about to say something when suddenly a woman suddenly rushed in front of them and knelt down, crying and wailing, "Miss Ling San, please, please spare my daughter! I kowtow to you, kowtow to you! As long as you are willing to spare her, you can beat me, scold me, and do anything to me, I am willing!"
At this moment, there are quite a few people here.
When the woman howled, everyone, whether they were nearby or had just come out of the auction, subconsciously stopped in their tracks.
Miss Ling San?
Of course I have heard of it recently! My eyes inevitably fell on Baili Feiyue.
The woman's head banged loudly on the stone floor. "Miss Ling San, our family has been through so much. Really, we will never dare to have any disrespectful thoughts towards you again. Please, please spare my daughter..."
Among those who gathered around was the wife of a wealthy family. The moment the wailing woman raised her head, she recognized that this was the wife of the Si Duwei Mansion!
Baili Feiyue really didn't expect to meet Mrs. Si here, and that she would encounter such a thing.
Wu Wu Mo Mo raised his eyebrows, "Mu Qing, let's go to another place to drink tea."
Of course Mu Qing also recognized that this was Mrs. Si, but she had no favorable impression of her at all, "I think so!"
They stood up to leave, but Madam Si refused to let them go and tried to hug Baili Feiyue's legs, but Mu Qing stopped them first, "What are you doing?!"
"Ms. Mu, please, give Lei'er a chance to live!"
"Madam Si, Si Lei was taken away by the Royal Guards for speaking rudely to His Royal Highness the Regent during the Medical Association Competition. Did you ask the wrong person for help?"
"No, no, no, Miss Ling can save her, she can! She is the future Regent Princess!" Mrs. Si said anxiously.
These people's minds are always so bizarre. Not to mention that she and Changsun Wuji don't have that kind of friendship, even if they do, why should she plead for Si Lei?
A little while ago, Si Lei, Gong Yan and Ling Ruolan plotted against her together, and more recently, Sai Si Lei from the Medical Association added insult to injury. Did they think she had a bad memory and couldn't remember?
Baili Feiyue didn't even bother to give alms to Madam Si, and directly said to Mu Qing, "Let's go."
Mu Qing nodded, "Let's go, let's go."
Mrs. Si saw that they didn't take her seriously at all. Although she tried hard to tell herself that she was begging for help and had to endure it, what could she do in this situation?
Her Lei'er!
Seeing them bypassing her and leaving, Madam Si almost exhausted herself, "Ling Jing! What do you want in exchange for letting Lei'er go, and letting our family go! How did we offend you that you have to torture us like this! You have disgraced my son, cut off my husband's hand, and put my daughter in the Jinyiwei prison. What else do you want to be satisfied with! You might as well just kill me too! Otherwise, if anything happens to Lei'er, I won't be able to survive!"
No matter what she said behind him, Baili Feiyue did not stop for her.
When we were almost out of the most crowded area, "Mu Qing, I'm going back first."
Mu Qing also felt disappointed, "Okay then."
Baili Feiyue nodded to Su Yan again as a greeting, rented a business carriage nearby, and said directly, "General's Mansion."
Mu Qing watched the carriage go away and turned back to say something.
"Miss Mu, I'm leaving now too."
"Hey~"
Mu Qing wanted to ask more, but the person just said hello and left without even stopping.
The strange thing was that he seemed to be walking slowly, but in just a blink of an eye, she could no longer see the scholar!
Mu Qing rubbed his eyes, thinking that he was dazzled. Where had the scholar been pushed to by the crowd?
Baili Feiyue returned to the general's mansion, and Su Yi reported immediately, "Miss, after you and Miss Mu Qing left today, the King of Qi came to pick up the fifth lady!"
This fifth young lady is like an indestructible cockroach!
"Don't worry about them."
Su Yi curled her lips and said, okay, but it makes me angry just thinking about it!
After that, Baili Feiyue did not go out until after dark, then she closed the door and carefully checked the injury on her left shoulder blade. Very good, although it is best not to use internal force, that is only the best.
The wound has fully healed, and if I really need to use my internal strength, I can move now.
No one noticed that when the gong sounded at midnight, a black shadow flew out of the general's mansion like green smoke, only slightly touched the beam, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving no trace.
