Wang Chun's case finally came to an end. In the end, Wang Ming was sentenced to twenty years in prison. This was because the emperor took into consideration Wang Ming's young age and because Marquis Zhongyong personally pleaded for him, he was able to save his life.

However, as a brother, Wang Ming never revealed the real reason why he killed his own brother. He only said that he was jealous.

However, this statement is obviously not convincing. You know, the deceased Wang Chun suffered from heart failure, which was an incurable disease at the time. Even if Wang Ming did not kill Wang Chun, he would not live for more than a few years due to his condition.

At this time, the murder of the legitimate son by the concubine of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion had already ruined the reputation of the Hou Mansion. Outsiders often looked at the Zhongyong Hou Mansion with strange eyes, but at home, Mrs. Hou was in tears all day long, crying about Zhongyong Hou Mansion. Wang Ming's aunt was also crying to Marquis Zhongyong, hoping to reduce Wang Ming's sentence by a few years.

The loyal and brave marquis finally returned because he was annoyed by their crying. In the past few days, he had experienced the pain of losing his son, and then watched his little son go on a path of no return. He was also quarreled by the women in his family, so the loyal and brave marquis was anxious and fell to the ground.

The blood vessels in the brain were blocked and no blood could flow into the brain, so the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery suffered a stroke. From then on, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion, which was once in its heyday, fell into decline, which is also a cause for regret.

However, after the case was solved, Luo Xuening had a lot of free time. She stayed in her yard all day. When she had nothing to do, she would tinker with some new toys. The rest of the time, she would train.

In her previous life, as a police officer, Luo Xue Ning had never forgotten to exercise, because the police profession had very high requirements for physical fitness. When she arrived in Nanshao Kingdom, Luo Xue Ning understood even more clearly that her enemies were secretly plotting how to deal with her, so she naturally could not relax.

However, this time, Luo Xuening not only exercised by herself, but also called her maid Luo Xia.

According to Luo Xue Ning, if Luo Xia wants to protect her master, she must first be able to protect herself. Luo Xia gladly accepts this and happily follows Luo Xue Ning to learn martial arts. However, within a quarter of an hour, she is already complaining bitterly.

However, Luo Xue Ning will not let her go so easily.

"Stretch your legs straight, stand up straight, lift your chest, and press forward."

As soon as Luo Xue Ning finished speaking, she saw Luo Xia pressing down hard on her legs, accompanied by her heart-wrenching screams when her hip bones were opened. Luo Xue Ning could not help but frowned. This is what happens to everyone when they practice basic skills. Just bear with it.

"This movement is called the straight leg press. Next, the side leg press, leg lift, and kneel leg press..."

After finishing the series of movements instructed by Luo Xue Ning, Luo Xia was already panting with exhaustion. She gasped for breath and did not dare to move her body. She just looked at Luo Xue Ning with resentment.

"Miss, are you done now?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? We were just warming up. The real training starts now."

Luo Xuening raised her lips and said this, and then she saw Luoxia's head tilted and her eyes closed, as if her body could no longer support itself. Luo Xuening looked at her with amusement, and walked towards Luoxia slowly. She grabbed Luoxia's braid and said.

"Okay, stop pretending. Even if you are really dizzy, I have a way to wake you up."

Luoxia closed her eyes, pouted, and then opened her eyes reluctantly. Who asked the lady to see through everything?

"Okay, now that you've rested, let's practice the horse stance. Follow me."

"Open your legs as wide as your shoulders, then slowly squat down, with your toes beginning to turn forward, your center of gravity lowered, and your squat gradually deepened, with your palms facing downward." Luo Xuening demonstrated a standard horse stance. Luo Xia looked at this strange movement in surprise.

"Miss, why does this action look so strange?"

"Strange, this is the foundation of your martial arts. Don't underestimate this move. It's not easy to do."

As soon as Luo Xue Ning finished speaking, there was a sound and Luo Xia fell to the ground. She covered her buttocks with one hand and rubbed them gently. At this time, Luo Xia looked at Luo Xue Ning standing still, and then she felt that the final action was really not easy.

"This movement can train leg strength and also help you gather your Qi. Qi is the foundation of martial arts."

"Miss, I have never seen you practice these before. When did you learn these?"

Luoxia held her hair. She was just starting to practice these basic skills, so it was very strenuous. But seeing the young lady's contented look, it was obviously not her first time practicing. However, she had followed the young lady for so long, but had never seen her practice martial arts.

Luo Xuening hesitated for a moment, but she had to think of a reason to explain why she suddenly learned martial arts. Not only did she have to explain it to Luoxia, she also had to explain it to other people. Otherwise, someone would use this as an excuse to attack her.

"Luoxia, do you remember that I used to take Chinese medicine often?"

"Yes, but since that black-hearted doctor was driven away, the young lady has never taken Chinese medicine again."

"That's when I started practicing these physical fitness techniques. If I didn't practice them every day, I would have to stay in bed every day."

Luo Xuening was telling the truth. Ever since she found out that the medicine the doctor gave her had problems last time, she had not taken any medicine for acupuncture and she would also do some physical exercises every morning. The servants in the mansion had all witnessed this.

After Luo Xue Ning finished speaking, she glanced at the few people acting suspiciously outside the yard. She knew that even in her own yard, there were people watching them. However, Luo Xue Ning had no intention of exposing them now. These spies in the yard looked annoying at ordinary times, but who knows, they might come in handy one day.

Glancing slightly outside the courtyard, Luo Xuening smiled suddenly and cunningly, thinking of a good way to play a trick on people. "Luo Xia, do you know why I have changed so much now, Miss?"

Luo Xue Ning turned her back to the group of servants outside the yard and winked at Luo Xia while speaking. Luo Xia immediately understood and pretended to be confused, and screamed sharply.

"Yes, Miss, you are much better now. Do you have any secrets?"

"Because I often do an action that makes me smarter. This way, next time the lady gives me trouble, I won't be afraid of her."

Luo Xue Ning has changed so much in recent days that people with ulterior motives naturally want to find out some secrets from her changes. Therefore, in these days, Luo Xue Ning could always feel that someone was monitoring her. Since they wanted to monitor her in this way, Luo Xue Ning would naturally give them an answer.

"Miss, what is that move? Please teach me."

Luoxia's excited voice caused the people outside the yard who were peeping through the door frame to exchange glances, staring straight at the master and servant in the yard.

"The move is to grab the soles of your feet with both hands and then jump up."

This action is basically impossible to do. Luo Xue Ning just said this and did not try to sit down. However, the people outside the yard who did not know the truth would not think so.

They had always wanted to find out the reason why Luo Xue Ning had suddenly changed so much. Now, the reason came out of Luo Xue Ning's mouth, and they had to believe it.

As Luo Xuening finished speaking, she heard footsteps outside the yard. She raised her eyebrows and smiled. These people must be going to report the news. They are really deceptive.

Luo Xuening and Luo Xia smiled at each other, and the master and servant clapped their hands in celebration. They were so happy. Because of this little episode, neither of them found the training boring anymore.

However, outside Ningxue Courtyard, the two people who were training did not know that there was a group of people outside who were desperately grabbing their feet, jumping one after another, and then failing one after another.

In an instant, the Prime Minister's Mansion had become a playground for people to practice dancing. It was so lively and funny.

Luo Xue Ning came back from training, sweating all over. After taking a bath, it was already evening. Luo Xue Ning remembered that she had promised Aunt Ye that she would have dinner in her courtyard tonight.

However, before she reached Aunt Ye's yard, Luo Xue Ning was suffocated by a thick smoke that blinded her. Her heart suddenly started, and looking at the yard surrounded by thick smoke, she felt something was wrong and ran into the yard.

Outside the yard, someone was burning weeds, and there was some straw on the fire. Burning these things would make people feel very uncomfortable. Usually, before burning, people would be driven away first, but they actually started burning directly outside Aunt Ye's yard.

"What's going on? Where is my aunt?"

Luo Xue Ning grabbed a servant who was watching the show outside and asked anxiously. The servant was originally looking at the yard with a sneer, but when he saw Luo Xue Ning coming, he immediately lowered his head and glanced timidly at the yard, and refused to tell the whereabouts of Aunt Ye.

The young lady has instructed that you just need to stay here and watch over Madam Ye. It's just a little smoke and it won't pose any danger to Madam Ye's life. At most it will just make her suffer a little.

"Is Aunt Ye in there?"

Luo Xuening grabbed the servant's clothes, and her angry eyes made the servant tremble with fear.

"say!"

Luo Xuening shouted angrily, and the servant's face turned pale instantly. She was scared.

"In, inside..." The servant stretched out his hand weakly and pointed inside the yard.
