Ren Yaoqi breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave with Xiao Jinglin, but she saw that it was Nanxing instead of Hongying who was following Xiao Jinglin. She was stunned because Nanxing was still wearing the same clothes as before.
Xiao Jinglin had already dragged Ren Yaoqi away. Yun Wenfang watched them leave with a cold expression before following Shijin to see Madam Xu.
After Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin boarded the carriage, Xiao Jinglin said, "If I had known Yun Wenfang was here, I should have come to see you sooner. Did he give you any trouble just now?"
Ren Yaoqi shook her head. She didn't want to talk about Yun Wenfang anymore. "I just said a few words and you came here. By the way, what's the matter with you coming to see me?"
Xiao Jinglin said expressionlessly: "Xiao Jingxi asked me to come here. He asked me to go with you to Prince Xian's Mansion to pick up two people." Xiao Jinglin glanced at Nanxing.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but laugh: "I can just send the person over, why do I have to ask you to go there?"
Xiao Jinglin pursed her lips and said nothing, thinking in her heart that it was a good thing she came today, otherwise she didn't know how Yun Wenfang would bully others. But then again, Xiao Jingxi specifically asked Nanxing to bring her to pick someone up, wasn't it because he knew Yun Wenfang had come to Baoping Hutong?
"So useless!" Xiao Jinglin curled his lips and muttered to himself.
Ren Yaoqi didn't hear clearly, and asked curiously: "Jinglin, what did you say?"
Xiao Jinglin said calmly: "I just happened to have nothing to do." Xiao Jingxi is so useless!
In fact, Xiao Jingxi was quite wronged. Even if he deliberately asked Xiao Jinglin to come to the rescue, it did not mean that he was afraid of Yun Wenfang. He just thought too much about Ren Yaoqi.
Nan Xing looked at Xiao Jinglin silently without saying anything. People who practice martial arts have very sharp ears and eyes.
Prince Xian's residence was not far from Yunyang Academy, so it didn't take long to arrive. This was Xiao Jinglin's first time at Prince Xian's residence, and Rong Shi asked Ji Fuying to come out to greet them.
Now, whenever she sees Ji Fuying again, Ren Yaoqi will kneel down and perform the ceremony of a junior, calling her Aunt Ji. Ji Fuying and Li Tianyou's marriage is scheduled for the beginning of next year, although not many people know about it.
Xiao Jinglin was very respectful and polite in front of Rong. After Ren Yaoqi explained his purpose to Rong, although Rong was a little surprised, she did not say anything and sent someone to bring Le Shan and Le Shui over.
Le Shan and Le Shui were eleven years old, but because they had practiced martial arts, they looked half a head taller than other girls their age, with slender arms and legs. While they weren't as delicate as the average inner court maid, they didn't appear rude, having been taught etiquette by the Xian Palace staff. Instead, they had the demeanor of maids from prominent families.
Xiao Jinglin also carefully studied them for a long time, her eyes tinged with interest. Having practiced martial arts since childhood, she could naturally see that Le Shan and Le Shui were two promising talents. If they weren't Ren Yaoqi's men, Xiao Jinglin would likely have recruited them. So, no matter how Princess Xiao openly or covertly despised her brother, Xiao Jingxi, siblings were often siblings, and many of the things they had in common were innate.
Xiao Jinglin sat for a while before asking to leave. Rong Shi asked Ren Yaoqi to stay and talk, so Ren Yaoqi could only see Xiao Jinglin out first.
After sending Xiao Jinglin back, Rong said without beating around the bush, "Isn't that the person Xiao Jingxi wants to go with?"
Ren Yaoqi: “…”
Rong shook her head, gently tapped Ren Yaoqi's forehead, and said helplessly: "You..."
Ren Yaoqi lowered his head and said softly, "I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to let Le Shan and Le Shui learn more skills."
Rong raised an eyebrow: "And then, after studying for a while, you became a member of the Yanbei Palace?"
Ren Yaoqi was stunned. Rong Shi said with a mixture of amusement and helplessness, "Think about what else the Yanbei Palace can teach that the Xian Palace can't?"
Ren Yaoqi blinked, speechless.
