Lu Anyuan's heart, which had been slightly relieved, became tense again as Xu Yixing stared at Mr. Yao.
The reason why I didn't get out of the car just now was that I didn't want her to see him, but I didn't expect that she would see him anyway.
Mr. Yao's appearance was truly a disaster for the nation and its people. If he hadn't been hidden in his mansion, if such a person appeared in the capital, who knows how many nobles would have rushed to fight for him.
Lu Anyuan was not very happy. Even if Yixing, you have no feelings for me, at least we are engaged now. It is inappropriate for you to stare at a stranger like this, right?
"Ahem! Mr. Yao, if you have handled it, please leave first."
Mr. Yao didn't really care for Xu Yixing's look. He had seen that look many times; nine out of ten people looked at him the same way. So after rinsing and taking the fine sand away, he got out of the car.
Until he left, Xu Yixing was still staring at his back, wondering in his mind what kind of monster was this?
Fox? But aren't all fox spirits female? Could it be that because the imperial aura in the capital is so strong, male foxes can also cultivate? Yeah... maybe!
"Yixing! I'm so glad you're not hurt!" Lu Anyuan shouted very loudly, which made Xu Yixing come back to his senses immediately.
"What are you shouting about? I'm not deaf, why are you..." Xu Yixing shook his head left and right, like a person with water in his ears trying to pour it out.
"Well, you're not deaf, you just acted too rashly. If that thing was something that would hurt you if it touched you, what would you do now?"
"You're just exaggerating. If such a good thing really existed, you guys would have killed the Emperor long ago. Why are you still waiting...?"
Lu Anyuan thought the first half of the sentence was cute, but when he heard the second half, he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly covered her mouth.
"If you say that again, you'll be cut into pieces."
Xu Yixing blinked his eyes to indicate that he understood.
She didn't know what was wrong. She had learned from her father to never talk about the royal family. But ever since she got involved with Lu Anyuan, she seemed to have developed a disease of despising the royal family, and she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't say a few words.
"Come on, I'll take you around the mansion."
Without waiting for Xu Yixing to refuse, Lu Anyuan pulled her sleeve and walked around the mansion openly.
The guards in the palace were naturally on high alert, and they were definitely his confidants, so when they saw the two of them, they just pretended not to see them, saluted from a distance, and then walked away.
"This is where I practice martial arts."
Lu Anyuan pointed to a large platform in the backyard and introduced the weapons to Xu Yixing one by one. However, Xu Yixing had seen all these things before, they were nothing more than swords, spears, swords and halberds. He might know more than him, so he was not interested.
"This is the balcony my aunt had specially built. It draws in a pool of fresh water. It's the coolest place to stay in the summer."
Xu Yixing had seen this pavilion before at Madam Jing's residence. It seemed to be the Rain-Gathering Pavilion. It was said to automatically collect rainwater and then release it during the hot summer months, creating both a beautiful and refreshing experience. Xu Yixing nodded, indicating he had read it.
"This is the palace's warehouse. The things given by the emperor and the gifts given by the ministers over the years are all in here."
Lu Anyuan took Xu Yixing inside for a tour. It was just a regular warehouse. Except for some items given by the emperor, it didn't even have as many things as the warehouse in Xu's mansion.
"When you become my princess, I will give you the key to keep."
Xu Yixing was in a low mood. He didn't care whether he cared or not. His dowry was still stored in the Sun Mansion, and he didn't know how much of it had been wasted.
"This is the main hall, where I live. You were here last time, remember?"
Xu Yixing nodded and said, of course I remember.
"Well, now that you've read it, what do you think? Is there anything you want to change?"
"Why change it to a good house?" Xu Yixing was probably sleepy and didn't have the strength to speak, so he just agreed with what he said.
"Then it's okay for us to get married as soon as possible, right?" Lu Anyuan's eyes sparkled with anticipation. After reviewing everything, there shouldn't be any problems, right?
Xu Yixing, still feeling sleepy, nodded. Then she felt Lu Anyuan's excitement and sudden awakening. "Huh? What did I agree to?"
"Okay! Then I'll talk to my aunt and ask her to discuss it with your father as soon as possible."
Is this your father? Wasn't he General Xu this morning?
"Well... you decide." It made no difference to Xu Yixing whether it was early or late. The only thing that mattered was that she had to give Gu a good beating before leaving the Xu residence, lest she get too complacent.
"Oh, by the way, do you want that Mr. Yao to treat the fake one?"
Lu Anyuan's originally very good mood was hurt again. What does it mean? I introduced him to you for so long and you didn't respond, and finally you asked him?
So he stood up straight, took a step back, and spoke in an official tone: "Yes. What do you think?"
"Is he the imperial physician?"
"Not really, it's just an empty title. He's a pharmacist and has been working in my house. Not many people have seen him."
“Is there any difference between a pharmacist and a physician?”
"A pharmacist could diagnose it as Fupisan, but a doctor might not."
Xu Yixing understood that the imperial physician might be able to cure the burned face, but it would be difficult to trace the source of the poison and find out what kind of poison it was.
"But he looks like this. Wouldn't it be a bit too conspicuous if you sent him there?"
Lu Anyuan smiled, his expression subtle: "Do you think he is good-looking?"
"That's not the case. I just think he looks too feminine. He doesn't have any masculinity at all. He's like a male fox."
"Hahahaha!" Lu Anyuan couldn't help but burst out laughing. Yes, a woman like Yixing who likes equestrianism would probably like stronger men.
"But maybe that fake guy would like it. Let them have a good talk. It's a beauty trap, I know."
Lu Anyuan's jealousy disappeared when he heard this. Yixing was indeed not a superficial woman who only cared about looks.
Xu Yixing's expression was indifferent: "I hope Sun Ziyou won't be too jealous and secretly kill him. That would be a shame."
"You do understand him. But if he really has this idea, then he's hitting a brick wall. Mr. Yao has a thousand ways to make him die quietly. What do you think?"
Lu Anyuan made a gesture of wiping his neck and asked Xu Yixing. But she refused. If it was just killing, then the shadow guard could do it. How could it be more exciting than the destruction of a family?
"Okay, if you change your mind, you can send me a message."
Xu Yixing still left in his own carriage. The events in the Sun Mansion had probably been reported back to the Xu Mansion. He wondered if his father had already known about it and was worried.
