Yun Chuwei was unaware that the Miao King was instructing his younger brother to run wildly down the path of causing trouble.
After entering the Miao Kingdom's capital, she moved into the palace prepared for her by the Miao King.
The buildings here are quite different from those in the Central Plains. First, the foundations are much higher than the ground level; second, the drainage systems around the roofs and houses are more developed.
Overall, it is very characteristic of the ethnic group.
Yun Chuwei and Xie Xuan walked up to a pavilion in the palace and found that the entire city was in sight.
You can even see beyond the city walls. It's lush and verdant there.
At that moment, a setting sun hung in the sky. The afterglow of the sunset dyed the entire horizon red, giving the quiet little town a beautiful hue.
She turned to Xie Xuan beside her and said, "This place is not bad, what do you think?"
Xie Xuan recalled what the Miao King had just said to Yun Chuwei, and said with a half-smile, "Do you want to go for a walk? Do you want to find someone to be your guide? Hmm?"
Yun Chuwei: ...
They had already discussed this matter while they were in the carriage.
Xie Xuan said at the time, "Oh, as expected of Miss Yun, wherever you go, someone has thought of everything for you. Now even a guide has been prepared. Is Miss Yun already planning to take the guide out for a trip?"
Yun Chuwei could only say at the time, "I never intended for him to be my guide. That answer was just to appease the Miao King!"
Xie Xuan didn't say anything more, and Yun Chuwei thought the matter was over.
She hadn't expected that this matter would be brought up again at this time.
She turned her head to look at Xie Xuan, but did not say anything.
Xie Xuan met Yun Chuwei's gaze and slowly said, "Why are you looking at me like that? Am I wrong?"
Yun Chu raised an eyebrow: "Xie Xuan, I think you're up to something!"
"Yes, yes, I'm still up to something. Then go find the guide that the Miao King specially prepared for you!" Xie Xuan said quietly.
Yun Chuwei replied, "Then I'm leaving!"
After saying that, she turned around and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Xie Xuan quickly reached out and grabbed Yun Chuwei's wrist to stop her from leaving.
Yun Chuwei turned around, looked at Xie Xuan, and said with a smile, "Didn't you tell me to leave? Why are you holding me back?"
Xie Xuan didn't say anything, but simply reached out and picked the person up in his arms.
He carried Yun Chuwei down the stairs before whispering, "You heartless bastard!"
Yun Chu leaned lazily against Xie Xuan's chest, smiling as she said, "I'll do whatever you ask me to do. How can you still be heartless? I don't even know how kind I am!"
Xie Xuan scoffed, "You really dare to say that!"
The two descended the pavilion and saw Huo Qingjue walking towards them.
Xie Xuan then put Yun Chuwei down.
Huo Qingjue was already used to their way of getting along, so even seeing such a scene was nothing new to her.
He approached the two and said, "To celebrate the arrival of the young lady, the King of Miao is hosting a bonfire party tonight. Everyone in the city will gather in the square in the center of the city to celebrate. Would the young lady and Your Highness like to join us?"
Yun Chu raised an eyebrow slightly: "Since we're already here!"
-
As the saying goes, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do," so Yun Chuwei and the others changed into Miao ethnic clothing before going out.
Xie Xuan was visibly stunned for a moment when he saw Yun Chuwei dressed in Miao clothing.
After entering the city, he saw many women wearing similar clothes. At the time, he felt that although such clothes were gorgeous and beautiful, they were not attractive and did not seem to bring out a girl's beauty.
However, when Yun Chuwei put on such clothes, his opinion of them completely changed.
Perhaps it was his own selfishness, but he thought that Weiwei looked really good in those clothes.
Those intense and complex color clashes looked bright and vibrant on Yun Chuwei.
Her stunning beauty perfectly overshadowed the elaborate decorations.
The jingling silver bell tied to the end of her belt softened her calm and reserved demeanor, making her every move more vibrant.
Just like when they first met, she was the one who saved him from dire straits.
Yun Chuwei met Xie Xuan's gaze, subconsciously turned around in front of him, and asked, "Does it look good?"
Xie Xuan nodded almost subconsciously.
Yun Chu smiled and said, "You look great in this outfit!"
Xie Xuan also changed her clothes, but she still wore the mask and her hair was still tied up high.
He doesn't look like a Miao man, yet he has a hint of being a boy from another ethnic group.
With his ethereal beauty and vibrant Miao attire, the young man exuded a spirited and unrestrained charm.
Seeing Xie Xuan like this, Yun Chuwei felt her mood improve considerably.
Xie Xuan couldn't help but smile after hearing Yun Chuwei's words, and said, "How does it compare to the guide that the Miao King prepared for you?"
Yun Chuwei: ...
Is this matter with the guide insurmountable?
However, she was in a good mood and didn't bother arguing with Xie Xuan.
She extended her hand to Xie Xuan and said, "Let's go! We don't need a guide today, I can be your guide."
Xie Xuan didn't say anything, but reached out and grabbed Yun Chuwei's hand.
The two walked side by side toward the door.
They never expected to see Xiao Wenmo when they arrived at the palace gate.
Xiao Wenmo approached Yun Chuwei and bowed respectfully.
He performed the very standard Central Plains etiquette, not the Miao etiquette.
Yun Chuwei looked somewhat surprised, but said nothing.
After exchanging greetings, Xiao Wenmo said, "As arranged by my brother, I came here specifically to be Miss's guide. How about I lead Miss to the bonfire party?"
Yun Chuwei and Xie Xuan stood quite close, their hands naturally clasped together, though their sleeves obscured their view unless one was paying close attention.
Yun Chuwei sensed that from the moment Xiao Wenmo came out, Xie Xuan tightened his grip on her hand, and at the same time, Xie Xuan's expression turned cold.
A strange feeling suddenly arose in her heart.
Even if Xie Xuan was truly jealous, would she have shown it so obviously?
She felt that this was very problematic.
She glanced at Xiao Wenmo, but couldn't see anything different about him.
She smiled and said, "No need! We don't need a guide. You go about your business!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wenmo smiled and explained, "Have I disturbed you, Miss? If I have, please forgive me. It's just that my brother gave me a strict order, so I have no choice but to do this."
Yun Chu smiled and said, "No need for further words, goodbye!"
After saying that, she pulled Xie Xuan away.
Walking down the street, away from Xiao Wenmo, Yun Chuwei finally asked, puzzled, "Is there something wrong with Xiao Wenmo?"
She felt that Xie Xuan's attitude towards Xiao Wenmo was strange.
Or perhaps, there's more to it than just the concept of a guide.
