"Little Swallow!" If Er Kang knew her true colors, what would happen?
Little Swallow couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Hahaha, you're scared? You're actually afraid of him?"
"What a joke! How could I possibly be afraid of him?" Xia Ziwei immediately retorted. How could she, the dignified vice leader of the Ziyun Sect, be afraid of a man? Ridiculous!
Other men are the ones who should be afraid of her, how could she possibly be the one who should be afraid of men?
"Ziwei!" Upon hearing Fu Erkang's voice, Xia Ziwei jumped and looked at him somewhat guiltily.
"Erkang, you've come at the right time. I was just talking to Ziwei. She'll stay at Shufangzhai and help me with the pregnancy. We'll talk about it after the baby is born."
Fu Erkang instinctively looked at Xia Ziwei, "Ziwei, you agree?"
Xia Ziwei hesitated for a moment, then immediately looked at Xiao Yanzi, "It was all her idea. She said that the defenses of the Scholar's Mansion are ultimately no match for the Imperial Palace, so she planned to have me go to Shufangzhai with her..."
"..." Little Swallow glanced silently at Xia Ziwei, then at Fu Erkang, and shook her head helplessly, "I really didn't expect this!"
At this moment, Yongqi spoke up, "Erkang, Xiaoyanzi is also thinking about Ziwei and the child..."
Fu Erkang looked at him strangely, "You agreed too?"
No way! This is so unlike the Fifth Prince!
"How could I dare disobey the lady's command?" Yongqi's simple words silenced Fu Erkang.
Fu Erkang waved his hand helplessly, "Since Yongqi has no objections, what can I say? I'll transfer people in to guard Shufangzhai right away."
Fu Erkang came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
After watching Fu Erkang leave, Consort Ling and Consort Shu entered next.
"Consort Ling, Consort Shu, what brings you here?" Xiao Yanzi wanted to stand up and greet them, but the two of them stopped her.
"We were bored, so we came to see you." Consort Shu looked at Xiao Yanzi's belly. "You're seven months pregnant, and your belly seems bigger than usual. Could you be carrying twins?"
"Well... we'll see what the imperial physician says." Xiao Yanzi knew her own physical condition well, but it was better to keep it a secret to avoid someone secretly plotting against her, which would be disastrous.
Yongqi looked at Xiaoyanzi with a hint of heartache, "Whether it's one or two, it will ultimately be hard for you."
Although he was somewhat reluctant to have children, after all, if he had children, Xiao Yanzi would pay less attention to him, and if any dangerous situation arose, Xiao Yanzi would probably no longer choose him without hesitation.
However, Xiao Yanzi genuinely loves children. She said that after the child is born, she will continue to protect him, and he will remain the most important person in her heart.
At that moment, he decided that he would protect her together with the child and keep her smiling.
"With you here, I'm not afraid of anything," Little Swallow replied, hooking her arm around his.
Consort Ling and Consort Shu looked at each other and smiled. Consort Ling teased, "You two are always exchanging sweet words."
"Even if you don't say anything, just look at your eyes..."
Xiao Yanzi was genuinely embarrassed by the teasing from the two of them, while Xia Ziwei was still watching the show from the sidelines. "Your Highnesses, please stop teasing me. I think you should focus your attention on Ziwei instead."
Xia Ziwei: I was enjoying the play so much, and now I've become a character in it? Little Swallow, this isn't fair!
Little Swallow glanced at Xia Ziwei with a grin, "You two ladies certainly don't know what Ziwei is like outside. Today I'll tell you."
"Little Swallow!" Xia Ziwei felt utterly hopeless. It was all over. All her efforts to maintain her ladylike demeanor were about to be exposed.
Back then, when she first joined Xiao Yanzi's team, she was still that rich young lady. However, as time went by, the gentle, refined, and well-mannered Xia Ziwei was gone forever.
When dealing with ordinary male enemies, Xia Ziwei's usual tactic is the "Child-Severing Kick," which targets the lower body.
When dealing with female enemies, the solution is to strip them naked, expose their weaknesses, and thus quickly resolve the issue.
To deal with enemies who can heal and poison, regardless of gender, first use a fart powder so that they will fart and stink to death while they are fighting; after some of them are knocked unconscious by the stench, use a laugh powder so that they will laugh out loud and be unable to breathe while they are fighting; if the enemies are still not dealt with, use an itching powder to deal with another wave; unless the opponent uses poison first, Xia Ziwei will save her poison for last.
The enemy's poison was sometimes an aphrodisiac, and sometimes a seven-step poison. Xia Ziwei was once accidentally poisoned by an aphrodisiac. Fortunately, there was a river nearby, which saved her from death. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"Your Majesty, you have no idea. There was a man who was leering at Ziwei, and without saying a word, Ziwei gouged out his eyes. It hurt so much! And someone tried to drug her, and she just castrated him..."
When Xiao Yanzi spoke, she did not lower her voice, so the guards or secret agents around her felt a chill in their crotches and quickly squeezed their legs together!
Good heavens! I thought Princess Mingzhu was a gentle beauty, but she turns out to be ruthless! I can't afford to mess with her!
After hearing about Xia Ziwei and Xiao Yanzi's experiences outside the palace, Consort Ling and Consort Shu couldn't help but click their tongues in amazement. "It seems that you two sisters are not to be trifled with. If anyone in the palace dares to mess with you, they'll be in deep trouble."
Little Swallow smiled smugly and said, "That's right, if you dare to mess with us, you'll taste what it means to wish you were dead!"
"It's almost noon before we know it. You should all stay for lunch." Consort Yu, who had been staying in the Buddhist hall, finally came out and welcomed Consort Ling and Consort Shu inside.
"Thank you very much, sister."
Yongqi helped Xiaoyanzi and Xiaomeng helped Xia Ziwei walk to the restaurant. After they sat down, Mingyue and Caixia brought out the food.
Yongqi inspected the food before letting everyone start eating.

"Master, the plan has failed."
"That little swallow actually hid a dagger in her pillow, that's why..." Otherwise, how could a pregnant woman like her fight against Yongqi, that big man?
If it weren't for that dagger, the palace might be mourning the child right now.
"The plan failed. They weren't sown apart, but my men weren't discovered either, which is a good thing in a way." The man listened to his subordinate's report with his eyes closed as he soaked in the hot spring.
"Master, shall we continue?"
He shook his head. "Since we've already failed, let's wait until she gives birth. Once the baby is born, she'll be busy taking care of it and will definitely neglect Yongqi. At that time, there will naturally be an opportunity to take advantage of her!"
"Should we have the young lady go herself, or find another palace maid to do it?"
"Don't reveal your knowledge unless you are absolutely certain."
"If the young lady knew that her master still cared about her, she would definitely be happy."
The man stopped talking, clearly unwilling to listen any longer, and his subordinates silently withdrew.
"You care about her?" He thought back to when he first arranged for her to get close to Yongqi, how resistant she was, constantly saying she wanted to keep her body with him, to stay by his side. What had he said back then...?
"If you really want to help me, then help me become an undercover agent. As long as you can successfully win his favor and break him up with Xiao Yanzi, I will naturally bring you back in the future."
"Don't worry, I want your body before you go to him."
