“I am willing! Death is inevitable for everyone, but some deaths are heavier than Mount Tai, while others are lighter than a feather. Thank you, sir, for giving me this opportunity. I am willing to serve you with all my heart and soul.” Fei Chi bowed deeply.
This time, the scholar was sincere; it wasn't out of despair or hopelessness.
His face flushed with excitement. Only after speaking did he realize that he was still a soldier in the Prince Yong's mansion. He then awkwardly said to Zhao Shu, "I hope that Your Highness will grant my request. In the future, I will serve you like an ox or a horse to repay Your Highness's kindness today."
"Repaying your debt of gratitude is fine. Just don't bully and humiliate my Yongwang Mansion like the others if you have good fortune in the future." Zhao Shu said calmly. She had always known that Fei Chi was not content to be a mere soldier in the manor, as evidenced by his constant self-reference as a commoner.

The eldest brother is like a father, the eldest brother is like a father. Without even discussing it, Zhao Shu smiled and said, "In that case, Lord Wei, I, Princess Feichi, will be entrusted to you. From now on, my life and death will be in the hands of fate, and my wealth and honor will be determined by heaven. I will have nothing to do with the Yongwang Mansion anymore."
Fei Chi wanted to say something, but Wei Ting Si interrupted her. He approached Zhao Shu and said in a very soft voice that only Zhao Shu could hear, "If the princess needs anything, she can go to Fish Tail Alley and find a person named Jiu Yu."
"Thank you, sir." Zhao Shu took a few steps back, keeping her distance from him.
