Masters are hard to please



A happy and pure town

I don't know where Muxi found it, but I'll live a smooth life here for the rest of my life. The air that Dou Shiliu breathes into his chest seems to have been evolved.

"Miss Fu has started throwing the embroidered ball! Let's go see!" The passersby hurriedly quickened their pace.

A group of people went to watch the excitement.

Dou Shiliu followed suit, and Mu Xi naturally followed as well.

Upon arrival, they spotted Little Fatty and Qianyan in the crowd, but the legendary Miss Fu was nowhere to be seen.

On the high platform, a woman covered with a red handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks was helped out by her maid.

Looking at her figure, I thought she must be very beautiful, with a graceful figure, and her hands holding the handkerchief were as white and delicate as scallions.

"What a stunningly beautiful woman!"

A person nearby sighed

Dou Shiliu: "..."

Her face is completely covered, how can she be described as stunningly beautiful? How can anyone tell?

Mu Xi didn't have any opinion on these things; he simply radiated coldness and pressure to keep others away from them.

Dou Shiliu watched them cheering from below, and the young lady, who had almost finished eating her candied hawthorn, hesitated to throw it away.

Fu Bing'er, on the high-rise building, had her head covered and couldn't see who was below.

"How is it—where is Qi Yan?"

Fu Bing'er could only keep asking the maid beside her, she was a little anxious.

The sheer number of heads was overwhelming, and the maidservants, hearing their mistress's urging, frantically searched for something.

Suddenly, she saw Qingyan and excitedly whispered in Fu Bing'er's ear, "Miss, Young Master Qingyan is right to your left. You just need to throw him with half your strength."

Fu Bing'er didn't care about anything else and just threw it out as the maid instructed, determined that it would be caught by that big idiot, Qian Yan!

The people below excitedly rushed towards the embroidered ball, but Mu Xi calmly picked up Dou Shiliu and placed him steadily on the eaves of the house.

Below is a scene of frantic scrambling to grab it.

Qianyan tried desperately to get the fat man to come forward, but he stumbled and missed the embroidered ball, instantly losing sight of it.

And a servant of the Fu family played a gong.

"Time's up!"

Fu Bing'er ripped off her embroidered handkerchief and looked at Qian Yan, but there was nothing there! Where was the ball?

Qianyan glanced over and saw that the fat man didn't have a ball either. Disappointment flashed in her eyes. What a great opportunity this was!

So where's the ball?

Let's rewind to the moment when Yan Yan sprained her ankle. Someone actually slapped the embroidered ball and sent it flying steadily toward Dou Shiliu and the others—or rather, toward Mu Xi.

Dou Shiliu's eyes darkened, and with a swift dragon tail kick, he sent the embroidered ball flying, heading straight for some unknown corner.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, a frail figure came up carrying an embroidered ball, his dirty hands holding the exquisite ball.

His eyes were bright and his teeth were white and clean, but his clothes were tattered and ragged.

It's Han Xiaoyi, whose background is incredibly tragic.

He married Fu Bing'er and successfully turned his life around.

Fu Bing'er was disappointed, but she still went along with it. After all, she had proposed the method, and once she had enjoyed the thrill, she had to keep her promise.

The plot is a bit dramatic; anyway, Dou Shiliu laughed out loud at the end.

Fu Bing'er is quite the tomboy, and she actually got married.

A few days later, Dou Shiliu and Mu Xi sat in the Fu residence drinking their wedding wine.

The town wasn't that big, so when someone got married, everyone would go to the wedding banquet. When Muxi and Dou Shiliu got married, they also hosted a banquet for everyone.

We're all neighbors, just a few people in the village, we know each other very well.

Fatty and Qianyan sat opposite Dou Shiliu and the others. Qianyan was comforting him and patted his shoulder.

"See? I told you to propose marriage sooner rather than later, but you wouldn't have done it. Now look at Xiao Yi, he's married Fu Bing'er."

The fat man took a sip of his drink in silence.

"Sigh, there are plenty of fish in the sea. The girl across the street is quite nice too. How about I introduce you to her?"

Qianyan is truly a man who can't bear to see his brothers suffer.

"Never mind, Qingyan, I know I'm destined to grow old alone."

Don't say discouraging things, brother.

The fat man decided to drink himself into oblivion with Qianyan, as a way to commemorate his love that had yet to begin.

Han Xiaoyi was wearing a slightly unsuitable groom's suit, but his hair and complexion were much better than yesterday.

The way he would occasionally exchange glances with Fu Bing'er broke the hearts of Fatty and Qiongyan in private.

Dou Shiliu looked at them and wanted to laugh. He ate a casual meal with Mu Xi for a while, and then left the Fu residence.

Springtime is beautiful, birds are singing and flowers are blooming among the trees.

Dou Shiliu suddenly remembered that today was a big day; she had almost forgotten Mu Xi's birthday.

As soon as Dou Shiliu entered the house, she immediately began discussing with the chefs how to make a cake.

Meanwhile, Mu Xi was in the study looking at the things that An and the others had collected, dealing with the important ones first.

Now, apart from the secret guards, no one knows where he is. On the day the army returned, the people who did not see Mu Xi were less enthusiastic and were particularly puzzled as to where he had gone.

But no one knew that their beloved Prince Muqi had found a secluded paradise and stayed there for a full half month, with no intention of ever coming out again.

The Northern Dance Kingdom, having already received the title, naturally wanted the Fengluo Kingdom to offer its congratulations, as the Fengluo Kingdom was now even more powerful.

For any nation that provokes Fengluo Kingdom, there is only one fate: annihilation.

As Fengluo Kingdom grew stronger, no other country dared to underestimate it.

Dou Shiliu and Muxi stayed in the mansion for a few days before going out for a stroll. Sometimes they stayed outside for quite a while before returning home.

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye

Dou Shiliu thought about the foreign country they had attacked, and wondered what it was like now. Suddenly, he had the idea to go and see how it was doing.

So Dou Shiliu and Mu Xi set off and embarked on their journey back to Fengluo Kingdom.

A few days later, Dou Shiliu saw Yan Xiaoyan from Mu Tuo's harem and was taken aback, as she was now six months pregnant.

Dou Shiliu swallowed, glanced at Mu Xi beside him, and then silently looked at Yan Xiaoyan's belly without saying anything.

After Mu Tuo chatted with him about everyday matters, Mu Xi returned to the Mu Wang Mansion. The steward's black hair had a few strands of silver.

Dou Shiliu and his group came and went quietly, then headed to a foreign land now under the rule of Fengluo Kingdom.

The city is now full of residents of Fengluo Kingdom and some scattered foreigners. The stalls are selling jewelry from Fengluo Kingdom and trinkets from other countries.

He was itching to buy it. Muxi passed by and saw a jade hairpin that he liked. He bought it and gave it to Dou Shiliu.

Her dark hair was getting longer and longer, so she needed to put it up in an updo. Dou Shiliu planned to find an opportunity to cut it herself another day.
