maidservant
Long Qian was at a loss for words, unsure whether to laugh or cry.
"Sixth Prince, I want Xu Zhixun's box of jewelry!" Zhang Fuyao shouted arrogantly.
Long Qian sighed: "Zhi Xun has helped Long Jun a lot. That box of jewelry is a thank-you gift I gave to Zhi Xun."
At this point, Long Qian gently comforted Zhang Fuyao:
"After we return to the capital, I'll buy you new jewelry, okay?"
"No! I want Xu Zhixun's box of jewelry!" Zhang Fuyao shouted.
Suddenly, she kicked the jade hairpin hard, knocking it to the ground as it was squatting down picking up jewelry!
Yu Zan let out a mournful cry and fell heavily onto the mountain path!
"Jade hairpin!" Xu Zhixun was startled and quickly squatted down to pick up the jade hairpin.
Yu Zan burst into tears: "Thank you, Miss Xu, sob sob sob..."
"Zhang Fuyao, that's enough! Yuzan has not offended you, so why are you bullying her?" Long Qian roared at Zhang Fuyao.
Zhang Fuyao said angrily, "That bitch Yuzan is trying to please you all day long, wanting to become your concubine!"
At this point, Zhang Fuyao picked up a golden hairpin from the ground and slashed it viciously at Yu Zan's right cheek:
"You slut! I'll slash your face and see how you seduce the Sixth Prince!"
Jade Hairpin couldn't dodge in time, and her cheek was immediately slashed by the golden hairpin, blood flowing freely: "Ahhhhh!"
"Aaaaaaah!" Xu Zhixun was terrified.
However, Zhang Fuyao was not satisfied. She used her golden hairpin to slash several deep bloody marks on Yuzan's cheek!
Yu Zan screamed in agony, crying out, "Second Miss, spare me! Please, spare me!"
"Zhang Fuyao, you've gone too far!" Long Qian roared in fury.
"Guards, take the Second Miss away and put her in Marshal Zhang's carriage!"
"Yes, Sixth Prince!" Two soldiers immediately stepped forward, intending to take Zhang Fuyao away.
However, Zhang Fuyao made a scene and refused to leave.
Xu Zhixun felt that Zhang Fuyao was too cruel, and suddenly believed what Long Qian had said before—
He said he didn't like Zhang Fuyao, but his mother kept pressuring him to marry her!
Originally, Xu Zhixun thought that Long Qian might be lying.
However, seeing Zhang Fuyao's shrewish behavior now, Xu Zhixun completely believed Long Qian's words.
Zhang Fuyao is unruly, shrewish, and ruthless.
It's perfectly normal that Long Qian doesn't like her!
Next, several soldiers forcibly took Zhang Fuyao away.
Disturbed and anxious, Long Qian immediately sent someone to fetch a military doctor to treat Yu Zan's injuries.
On Yu Zan's fair cheeks, Zhang Fuyao had used a golden hairpin to slash five bloody marks, which continued to bleed.
Yu Zan was originally pretty, but now her face was covered in bloodstains, making her look like a hideous female ghost, which was terrifying!
The military doctor applied some medicine to Yu Zan's wound and then applied a no-suture dressing to it.
The medic then left.
"Hey, Yuzan, are you in a lot of pain?" Xu Zhixun asked Yuzan cautiously, her heart pounding.
Yu Zan sobbed, tears streaming down her face.
"Thank you for your concern, Miss Xu. This servant... this servant is in so much pain, waaaah..."
Long Qian was very annoyed: "Yu Zan, from now on you won't be my personal maid anymore, you can be Xu Zhixun's personal maid!"
"From now on, you will comb Xu Zhixun's hair and do her laundry every day, understand?"
The jade hairpin struck like a bolt from the blue: "Sixth Prince, you...you don't want me anymore?"
Long Qian said helplessly, "It's not that I don't want you, it's just that Zhang Fuyao hates you."
"If I keep you by my side, Zhang Fuyao will continue to bully you."
Yu Zan burst into tears and immediately knelt down on both knees before Long Qian:
"Sixth Prince, please, please don't send me away, sob sob sob..."
Long Qian sighed: "Xu Zhixun is often with me. You are still by my side, but in name, you have become Xu Zhixun's maid."
Yu Zan thought for a moment, then replied through tears, "This servant understands. This servant will definitely serve Miss Xu well from now on!"
Xu Zhixun opened her antique-style handbag, took out a tissue, and handed it to Yu Zan:
"Yu Zan, don't cry, wipe your tears!"
Yu Zan took the tissue and wiped away her tears:
"Thank you, Miss Xu. You are so gentle and considerate. You truly are a fairy from heaven!"
Long Qian pondered for a moment, then said thoughtfully, "Yu Zan, you will continue to live in the Sixth Prince's residence."
"You should still collect your monthly allowance from the Sixth Prince's residence."
Yu Zan burst into tears: "Yes, Sixth Prince."
Xu Zhixun said with a complicated expression, "Thank you, Long Qian, but I don't want to do laundry every day."
"If Yuzan helps me with the laundry from now on, my life will be much easier!"
Long Qian smiled and said, "If you have anything else to do, you can also ask Yu Zan to do it."
Xu Zhixun: "Okay."
Next, Long Qian felt that he was missing a personal maid and a servant.
So he asked Eunuch Yang to bring all the servants from the Dragon Army.
Then, Long Qian chose a handsome young servant who knew martial arts.
The servant boy's name was "Qingshan," and he was an eighteen-year-old boy.
Long Qian sent Qingshan to fetch Zhang Fuyao.
Before long, Zhang Fuyao stepped down from Marshal Zhang's carriage and came to Long Qian's side.
Long Qian gestured with his chin towards the green hills and said to Zhang Fuyao:
"This is my newly chosen personal servant, Qingshan."
“You didn’t like my personal maid, Yuzan, so I gave Yuzan to Xu Zhixun.”
Zhang Fuyao was initially very angry that Long Qian had given all the most precious jewelry in Yangcheng to Xu Zhixun.
However, upon hearing Long Qian's words, Zhang Fuyao was overjoyed:
"Thank you, Sixth Prince, you are so kind to me!"
Long Qian said lazily, "From now on, don't be unreasonable anymore, understand?"
"I won't be unreasonable anymore, I don't want Xu Zhixun's jewelry box!" Zhang Fuyao said with a beaming smile.
"Buy me new jewelry after we return to the capital!"
Long Qian hummed in agreement.
Xu Zhixun looked at Zhang Fuyao, who was all smiles, and then at Yuzan, whose face was covered in scars. Suddenly, she felt that the maids in ancient times were really pitiful.
Zhang Fuyao disfigured Yu Zan's face, but Long Qian didn't seem to care!
Not only that, but to please Zhang Fuyao, Long Qian specifically chose a servant boy to attend to him instead of a new personal maid...
Thinking of this, Xu Zhixun's mind was in turmoil.
Just then, Eunuch Yang stepped forward and reminded everyone that it was time for lunch.
So, Xu Zhixun put the jewelry box on the table into her personal space.
Afterwards, everyone sat around the octagonal table, intending to have lunch.
Lunch consisted of various kinds of instant noodles, steaming hot and with a wonderful aroma.
Xu Zhixun looked at the table full of instant noodles and said to Long Qian:
"Long Qian, let's go back to Heaven for dinner. That way we can save food for the Dragon Army."
For the past three months or so, Xu Zhixun and Long Qian have been eating almost every meal in the modern world.
Therefore, after hearing Xu Zhixun's words, Long Qian went back to the modern MSG factory warehouse with Xu Zhixun.
The two left the warehouse and went to the staff canteen.
——————————————
More than three months ago, Xu Zhixun rented the warehouse and got a meal card for the staff canteen.
Long Qian would pay for her meals every month and give her a 50-tael gold ingot.
Therefore, she used her meal card to buy lunch for herself and Long Qian.
She bought sweet and sour pork ribs, braised pork with tiger-skin eggs, fish head with chopped chili peppers, and a bowl of three-delicacy soup.
Long Qian bought the same food as her.
Next, the two had lunch together.
After lunch, the two returned to the guardhouse of the warehouse and began their afternoon rest.
Xu Zhixun sat at the table, her expression complicated, and asked Long Qian:
"Long Qian, Zhang Fuyao disfigured Yu Zan's face. Are you not going to pursue this matter?"
Long Qian asked casually, "How can I pursue this?"
“Yu Zan is a maid. I can’t possibly have a conflict with Marshal Zhang’s eldest daughter over a maid.”
Xu Zhixun couldn't understand: "But... last time Zhang Fuyao slapped me, you slapped Zhang Fuyao back."
"Why didn't you help Yu Zan get revenge when Zhang Fuyao bullied her?"
Long Qian thought for a moment and explained, "Because you provided food and water to the Dragon Kingdom's 30,000-strong army, you are the Dragon Army's savior."
"Therefore, I cannot let Zhang Fuyao bully you."
Xu Zhixun suddenly felt a pang of sadness:
"What if... I'm just an ordinary maid like Yu Zan?"
"If I were just a maid, and Zhang Fuyao slashed my face with a hairpin, wouldn't you help me?"
Long Qian frowned deeply: "Don't think nonsense, you can't possibly be a maid!"
Xu Zhixun's heart felt like a jumbled mess of emotions:
"You said before that you wanted to marry me because I have a time-traveling supermarket, right?"
"You've got your eye on all the supplies in the supermarket. You think I can help you win the throne, that's why you want to marry me..."
"Zhi Xun, don't overthink it!" Long Qian interrupted Xu Zhi Xun.
Xu Zhixun suddenly became very sad: "I wasn't overthinking!"
"If I didn't have the Time-Traveling Supermarket, if I were like a jade hairpin, with nothing at all, you would never have wanted to marry me, hmm..."
Before Xu Zhixun could finish speaking, Long Qian suddenly kissed her lips, silencing her before she could finish her sentence!
Xu Zhixun: "???"
Long Qian held Xu Zhixun's head with his large hand and kissed her passionately.
Xu Zhixun felt a sudden, loud noise in her mind, and her face flushed red.
She tried to push Long Qian away, but Long Qian refused to let her go.
And so, Long Qian kissed Xu Zhixun passionately for a long time in the guardhouse.
It took him quite a while to let go of her.
"You, you pervert!" Xu Zhixun was both ashamed and angry, and hit Long Qian.
Long Qian seized Xu Zhixun's soft hand and asked, "What do you mean by 'pervert'?"
Xu Zhixun was both amused and exasperated: "That means you're not mentally sound!"
Long Qian smiled faintly and kissed Xu Zhixun's finger:
"Hearing you say that, I also think I'm a pervert."
"After all, I was calling your name when I was talking in my sleep last night."
Xu Zhixun's face turned bright red, and she stared at Long Qian with her big, watery eyes:
"Then why did you call my name when you were talking in your sleep last night?"
Long Qian said slowly, "I don't know either. Maybe it's because I dreamed about you last night."
"What did you dream about me about?" Xu Zhixun asked curiously.
Long Qian smiled wickedly: "You really want to know? I dreamt that we were in a peach blossom forest, making love..."
"You pervert!" Xu Zhixun slapped Long Qian again.
Long Qian laughed loudly: "You said this morning that I could take a bath in your bathroom, and I want to take a bath now."
Xu Zhixun was both amused and exasperated: "But it's afternoon now! Don't you want to take a bath later tonight?"
