After Xiao Yanzi had eaten and drunk her fill, Yongqi and Xiao Yanzi broke away from the group and went on a date alone.
"Little Swallow, is this the place where you almost fell off the cliff that year?"
Yongqi was led by Xiaoyanzi to the edge of a cliff. Yongqi subconsciously thought that this was the cliff where Xiaoyanzi fell off the cliff and was rescued by Li Chengyun.
Little Swallow smiled slightly, looking up at the distant sky, "Yes, actually, it's not that dangerous. Even if I really fell, I wouldn't die..."
"Why?" Yongqi asked instinctively after hearing Xiaoyanzi's words.
Little Swallow turned around and looked at Yongqi with a smile, "Yongqi, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
Yongqi held her hand tightly, "No matter if you're going through fire or water, I'll be with you!"
"It's not that serious!" Little Swallow couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Come with me."
Little Swallow, holding Yongqi's hand, flew down from the cliff. "Look..."
Yongqi looked in the direction Xiaoyanzi pointed out and exclaimed, "So there's a hot spring at the bottom of this cliff!"
Little Swallow nodded, "Yes, so even if I really fall from up there, I'll be fine. That Li Chengyun is clearly just looking for trouble, trying to pin this on me as if I saved his life!"
The two landed at the edge of the hot spring. Just as Yongqi was about to say something more to Xiaoyanzi, some indescribable sounds came from the other side of the hot spring.
"What's the rush? It's not like I'm not going to give you any..."
"Do you know how much I've missed you..."
Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi looked at each other in bewilderment. What kind of luck did they have?
Yongqi's frustration reached its peak. He finally managed to get a date by himself, only to run into someone else doing this kind of thing. What kind of mess is this?
"Xiao Jian is back, did you know?" The woman's words instantly ruined the man's mood.
Why did you bring him up?
"Now that he's become incredibly successful, don't you want to seek revenge?"
"..." The man glared at him coldly. "Revenge? I was in the wrong back then. He broke off relations with me, and that's what I deserved. What right do I have to seek revenge?"
"He's now married to a princess and is a general, and his sister is married to the future emperor. If you hadn't broken off relations, maybe..."
Before she could finish speaking, the man sarcastically retorted, "Maybe what? If I hadn't broken off all ties with him, I wouldn't even look at you right now, understand?"
"Let me tell you, you better keep your crooked thoughts to yourself. If you don't know what's good for you and go and mess with them, you'll have to bear the consequences yourself. I won't help you!"
The man's interest was completely ruined, so he left her.
Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi were completely confused, wondering what kind of past this man had with Xiao Jian.
"Xiao Jian, good, it's good you're back, but it's a pity..."
Back then, Xiao Jian and he became disciples together. As a child, he was always competitive, but because Xiao Jian always performed better than him, he had evil thoughts.
He hired some thugs to bully him, not only beating him and verbally abusing him, but also humiliating him...
Just as Xiao Jian's clothes were about to be stripped off, his master arrived and saved him, but he was expelled from the sect as a result.
After being expelled from his sect, all the people he had bullied came to cause him trouble. He had to hide and go into hiding to barely survive until now.
Now that Xiao Jian has achieved great success, he is still like a rat in a ditch, hated by everyone.
How could he possibly have the nerve to go looking for Xiao Jian?
The woman left behind slowly got up and dressed, her eyes sharply fixed on the man's departing figure, seemingly lost in thought.
"Duan Jinghui, if you don't want to seek revenge, then I'll help you!"
In a way, she and Duan Jinghui were childhood sweethearts. She fell in love with him at first sight, so she always followed him, guarded him, and protected him. Now that she knows the culprit who caused Duan Jinghui to become like this has returned, she will naturally not let it go!
"Xiao Jian, Xiao Jian, you shouldn't have become an apprentice with him back then!"
"Your father was beheaded, how did you manage to escape?"
If Xiao Jian had been beheaded back then, no one would have been competing with Duan Jinghui, and he wouldn't be in the state he is today!
Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi, who were hiding behind, heard the woman talking to herself. They were both dumbfounded. What secret had they heard?
"(You managed to escape Duan Jinghui back then, but it won't be that easy now!)" However, the person she's dealing with now isn't Xiao Jian!
After all, Xiao Jian is now highly skilled in martial arts, and dealing with him would be too risky.
Why not turn your attention to the princess he married? I bet if something happened to his wife, he would be even more heartbroken than if he himself were injured.
Seeing that the woman had also left, Xiao Yanzi and Yongqi flew back up the cliff. "Yongqi, let's hurry back and tell my brother!"
But on their way back, they learned that the other couples had also gone out on dates by themselves.
"No, my brother and Qing'er are outnumbered and outmatched. We have to find them quickly!"
Xiao Yanzi was worried. If something happened to Xiao Jian and Qing'er, then all would be lost!
Upon returning, Yongqi and Xiaoyanzi immediately sent someone to inform Xiaojian and Qing'er, while continuing to wait for more news.
"Yongqi, do you mean that someone is trying to harm Xiao Jian and Qing'er?" After Yongqi finished reporting, Qianlong frowned.
"Yes, Xiao Yanzi and I both heard some of it, but not all of it!"
Little Swallow chimed in, "But one thing is for sure: they must have had a grudge against my brother!"
"Master, the gatekeeper has brought a letter." Just then, Xiao Zhuo brought in a letter. "The gatekeeper said it was handed to me by a little girl, who didn't say anything..."
Little Swallow took the letter and read it carefully; she was so frightened she almost lost her soul!
Yongqi and Qianlong took a look, and they were both shocked!
"Princess Qing has been captured and taken to the west of the city. Come to her rescue immediately."
After calming down for a while, Xiao Yanzi said, "Yongqi, take some men to the west of the city immediately to check the situation. If Qing'er is indeed there, act according to the circumstances and don't make any rash moves!"
"Sir, you continue to hold this post here. If there is any new information, have them pass it on to us immediately!"
Yongqi frowned and looked at Xiaoyanzi, "Xiaoyanzi, where are you going?"
"I'm going to find that man and get to the bottom of what's going on between him and my brother."
"Don't waste time, hurry up and get to the west of the city!"
Just as Xiao Yanzi and Yongqi were preparing to take action, Xiao Yao brought the latest news: "Jian'er went to the west of the city to rescue Qing'er!"
After exchanging a glance, Xiao Yanzi and Yongqi headed towards the west of the city in tacit agreement.
"Qing'er, hold on!" Xiao Jian was filled with regret at this moment.
Out of curiosity about what Xiao Yanlou was like, Qing'er was taken there by Xiao Jian. Unexpectedly, a spy appeared inside, and he was surrounded and attacked. Qing'er was also injured and taken away...
On a mountain somewhere west of the city, someone remarked, "Look at this beauty! No wonder she has captured the heart of our great hero, Xiao Jian!"
"I heard that she has already given birth to a son for Xiao Jian, and over there, her word is law. Xiao Jian listens to her!"
"If it were me, I'd listen too. It wouldn't be a loss to hear the words of such a beautiful woman!"
"Such a beautiful woman, what a waste! You lot, hurry up and finish this quickly so you can report back sooner!"
