This was the day Feng Qinghuang and Rong Qi went to the desolate forest.
Feng Qinghuang coaxed her parents with a lot of pleading and cajoling. Originally, her parents insisted that Feng Qingyun go with their younger sister, but Feng Qinghuang refused, saying that she wanted to train on her own. She also said that her brother's cultivation was not as good as hers, and that in the end, it was hard to say who would protect whom!
Feng Qingcang and Murong Wan thought about it and agreed. They didn't want to create an extra burden that would hinder their daughter's pet-catching. Anyway, with Rong Qi around, Huang'er would be fine. Besides, her third senior brother was also there, so her safety was guaranteed.
With her parents and younger sister disliking her, Feng Qingyun wasn't even fit to be a tool anymore.
Rong Qi came to pick up Feng Qinghuang early in the morning. He specially chose an inconspicuous carriage and picked her up from the back gate, heading towards the city gate.
Rong Qi originally said that riding a horse would be faster, but he couldn't bear to see Jiao Jiao suffer, so he decided to take the carriage instead, even if it was slower.
The two of them rushed to a place ten miles outside the city gate and waited for Mu Weiliang.
About half an hour later, Mu Weiliang arrived at the meeting point with a large group of people. Mu Weiliang jumped off her horse and onto the carriage.
The rest of the group followed slowly until they reached a deserted place, where they quietly departed.
Feng Qinghuang: "Aqi, who are those people? Why are they so obedient?"
Rong Qi: "Those are all my bodyguards."
"Oh, okay. That looks pretty impressive."
Rong Qi smiled and said, "Indeed."
Rong Qi didn't tell Jiao Jiao that those people were indeed secret guards. However, they were a team of secret guards loyal only to the royal family. Because Mu Weiliang was present, Rong Qi didn't explain it very clearly.
Because it is a royal secret, it is not convenient to reveal it to outsiders.
Mu Weiliang: "Junior Sister, I just sensed their auras, and they were all very strong."
"Really? I'll have to go up against them later."
Rong Qi shook his head helplessly: "Why spar with them? I'll practice with you later. What if they hurt you again?"
Rong Qi wouldn't let those grown men fight with Jiao Jiao!
Feng Qinghuang: "But Aqi will let me win, so how am I supposed to fight?"
"No, I'll spar with you and point out your weaknesses so you can pay more attention. Sparring doesn't necessarily mean you have to hurt someone to be considered skilled. You can also remember your enemy's moves and find ways to counter them. Then, no matter how powerful the enemy is, they won't be able to hurt you, right?"
Feng Qinghuang thought about it carefully and it seemed to make sense. Finding the enemy's weaknesses was the key to victory.
"Alright, this time when we go to catch the little red fox, it's the same as before, Aqi, you can't help."
Rong Qi nodded: "Okay, I won't intervene as long as you're not in danger."
Hearing Rong Qi's words, Mu Weiliang secretly shook her head. Given her junior sister's personality and methods, she probably wouldn't need Rong Qi's help. This desolate forest shouldn't have any particularly ferocious magical beasts.
Judging from how ruthlessly my junior sister hunted wolves in Wuji Mountain, I wonder if that little fire fox will be killed by her.
Actually, Mu Weiliang doesn't understand her junior sister at all in this respect. Feng Qinghuang treats all her possessions, including people, exceptionally well; just look at how she treats Rong Qi.
······
Meanwhile, in a private room at Huayue Tower, a servant knocked on the door of Mu Yanzheng's room.
After the person entered, they whispered something in Mu Yanzheng's ear. After listening, Mu Yanzheng suddenly stood up and walked towards the door.
After walking downstairs to the Flower Moon Pavilion and looking around, I headed in a certain direction.
About half an hour later, they arrived at the back door of a house and knocked on the door according to the agreed-upon code.
After the door opened, the servant led him into a dark room in the room, where a man dressed in black, completely covered and wearing a mask, appeared in front of him.
Mu Yanzheng found it amusing. "We both know each other perfectly well. We're here to discuss something, and you're keeping it so secret? Isn't that pointless?" However, Mu Yanzheng didn't want to expose him; perhaps it was a personal preference, as this added a sense of mystery.
Mu Yanzheng concealed his thoughts: "Greetings, Young Master Rong! May I ask what brings you here today?"
Since you want to hide it, then go ahead and hide it. I won't expose your identity to your face.
"Greetings, Young Master Mu. I've summoned you here today to inform you that your elder brother has already left the city and is expected to return in five or six days. Your plan can now proceed."
Mu Yanzheng shook his head with amusement: "No, no, no, this is our plan, not just my plan!"
The man in black replied seriously, "Young Master Mu is joking. I was just giving you a timely heads-up; I wasn't involved in anything else, was I?"
Mu Yanzheng.
So this is what you were waiting for! If you hadn't pulled strings, how could I have gotten those people in? Fine, whatever you want to say, then so be it.
Mu Yanzheng: "Alright, Young Master Rong is right. Then, the day after tomorrow, I'll need your people to do me a favor."
Man in black: "Of course."
