"If we don't go, it will cause dissatisfaction. Besides, we're not exactly rich and powerful."
Murong Jin wore a look of amusement on his face. Yi Er could easily see that his master wanted to see him make a fool of himself by making him dance. Wasn't that putting his life at risk?
Besides, she's dancing with a man... how awkward is that?
Murong Jin: "Everyone's waiting for you, aren't you going?"
Yi Er vaulted over the fence and jumped down, landing next to the courtesan. "Hello."
"Would the young master be willing to dance with Xiaosheng?"
Seeing the shyness on his face, Yi Er reached out and scratched the back of his head. "I can't dance. Will I spoil your fun?"
The courtesan's eyes narrowed slightly. "No, it's just a prize."
For the first time, Yi Er thought that men's voices could be so pleasant to listen to.
Soft and delicate.
Murong Jin took a sip of wine, looked down at Yi Er, whose steps were completely erratic, and then at the courtesan.
The courtesan was indeed a courtesan, but she wasn't a man.
She was a charming girl.
"Miss, would you like some snacks to go with your drinks?"
Murong Jin looked at it and nodded slightly, "Okay."
Murong Jin started eating the three dishes, while Yi Er felt awkward down below. He turned around and saw his master enjoying his meal so much, and he felt resentful.
After it was over, Yi Er left in a hurry. The courtesan's gaze fell on Murong Jin on the second floor, and the smile in her eyes disappeared a lot.
That man was the first one she took a liking to here, but it seems he's already taken.
Although I felt a pang of regret, the woman was very beautiful, and every move she made exuded a noble and aloof air. She was used to being carefree and could not pull off those dignified gestures.
………
"Miss, you were just laughing at me."
Murong Jin glanced at him and said, "It's alright. If I had sent you to work at the Ministry of Rites back then, you would probably be learning some ballroom dancing now, especially the kind done by foreigners."
Yi Er sat opposite her. "But, Master, why are you drinking? Wasn't it supposed to be a three-month alcohol ban?"
Murong Jin: "...That's what I said when I left the Valley of Divine Healers. How long has it been? Can't I drink it now?"
Yi Er said "Oh," and added, "But now that you've recovered, you can't just abuse yourself; you still need to rest and recuperate."
Murong Jin: "We'll come out again next time we find something delicious. We have to go back now."
Yi Er stood up and said respectfully, "Yes."
After the two left, the courtesan asked the waiter, "Were those two a couple?"
"What? A rich young lady and a guard? They seem to have a good relationship, but they don't seem to be husband and wife."
The courtesan's lips curled slightly. "Guards and young ladies, huh?"
Nighttime, on the streets.
Murong Jin was playing with a new little toy in her hand, while Yi Er chattered beside her, "Seriously, Master, why are you walking?"
Murong Jin: "It's still early to go back to the manor, let's wander around outside."
Finally, under the cover of night, they arrived at a deserted alley. Murong Jin disappeared, leaving Yi Er standing there dumbfounded.
ah?
His master just abandoned him like that?
"Miss!!!"
Murong Jin already held a delicate dagger in her hand, which was poised to strike the neck of a man. From the darkness came Murong Jin's nonchalant voice, "Miss courtesan, are you looking for me, or for my guards?"
The courtesan looked at the person in front of her, and before she knew it, he had arrived in front of her and held her life in his hands.
"You have excellent skills, young lady."
"However, I'm not here to see you. I just want to see the relationship between you."
Murong Jin sheathed the dagger and cut to the chase, "You like my subordinate?"
The courtesan's face showed surprise. "You noticed?"
"That girl's eyes are so direct, even that idiot Yi Er can't see it. I'm not stupid."
Upon hearing the word "girl," the courtesan immediately sensed how perceptive this woman was.
Then I heard her say, "Is your family background respectable?"
The courtesan paused for a moment, "Swordsman, does that mean you're innocent?"
"What about your family background?"
Courtesan: "My family runs a security escort agency."
Where are your brothers and sisters?
Courtesan: "One elder brother."
"Will you be able to stay in the capital indefinitely?"
The courtesan was astonished. "Yes, you can."
Murong Jin turned around and said, "Then you can go after him yourself."
The courtesan asked in a low voice, puzzled, "Huh?"
"The residence of Yi Er in Dongcheng. Yi Er is the name of his bodyguard. As for his real name, you'll have to ask him yourself."
After Murong Jin disappeared, she looked down at Yi Er, who was still searching for her, and used her lightness skill to quickly disappear into the air.
"Jin Shisan".
"exist."
"If you investigate someone and their home is clean and they seem like a decent person, then you might have a younger sibling."
Jin Shisan looked puzzled. "Huh? Sister-in-law?"
Murong Jin threw the dagger in her hand onto the table. "Yi Er has caught the eye of a girl."
Jin Shisan's face was full of disbelief. "Him? There are girls who like him? You might as well like me instead of him."
Murong Jin glanced at him. "You want to find a wife too?"
"No!!! I'll go investigate this right away!!!"
After one figure disappeared, Murong Jin took off her dress, changed into a men's undergarment, and lay down on the bed to rest.
...
"Master, we've lost them."
Di Junlan hummed in agreement. "Where did you lose track of them?"
