Taihe Restaurant.
Zhou Yuexue sat in front of the dressing table, looking at Chu Chengyao who was wearing a hairpin for herself in the bronze mirror with a smile on her face.
"It's so beautiful, Your Highness has good taste."
Chu Chengyao was possessed and placed his chin gently on Zhou Yuexue's shoulder:
"The beauty of life is wearing a hairpin. The hairpin that matches it becomes even more beautiful."
Zhou Yuexue smiled tenderly and said: "His Highness is always making fun of others. By the way, that Song Yike has submitted to His Highness?"
Chu Chengyao: "Although he hasn't surrendered yet, it won't be long. This person is still strong-willed even though he is in a state of poverty. He will not give in to power and wealth. If he is used by me in the future, he will definitely be a loyal person. Thanks to you, You are truly my lucky star for helping me find such good help.”
"Xue'er can live a happy life now because of His Highness. Your Highness is the lucky star. Xue'er feels happy to be able to help His Highness."
The two of them mixed some oil with honey in front of the mirror, then stood up and sat down at the table.
"I was also out during the Chinese New Year, and I saw him in Kyoto by chance. In his early years, Song Yi saved the lives of Jinyan's sister and brother. Not only was he taken in by the Lin Mansion as a nursing home, but he also had a relationship with two young generals from the Gu family. It's ridiculous. If I submit to His Highness, I might be able to bring His Highness into good relations with the Gu family."
Hearing this, Chu Chengyao spoke with compliments and words of love, and his eyes were even more determined to win.
After saying this, he asked Zhou Yuexue when he would live in Lin Mansion again.
Zhou Yuexue: "I went to see my aunt two days ago and mentioned this matter in a vague way. My aunt said that after the first month of my stay, she would take me to the Lin Mansion."
Seeing Chu Chengyao nodding, Zhou Yuexue said again:
"When sister Jinyan is old, a lady from the Lin Mansion comes to visit her almost every day, in the name of visiting her aunt. The Crown Princess and Princess Qin both find excuses to give gifts to sister Jinyan during the New Year. I watched Sister Jinyan is extremely friendly to both houses, so Your Highness must pay close attention."
Chu Chengyao: "After all, she is a daughter who has not yet left the court. Although she has some friendship with her brother after racing horses several times, spring is approaching, and her brother has been studying behind closed doors recently, and the horse racing appointment has been scheduled for after spring. These days, I still have to rely on you.”
In the alley.
Song Yi took Wei Xian out of the Yahang. After walking far away, Xue Ren appeared from the corner. He glanced at the direction the two left and turned around to enter the Yahang.
When he learned that Song Yi intended to buy a house in Kyoto but was short of money, Qin Zongliang ordered Xue Ren to settle in a small house that had nothing to do with the Duke's mansion.
Just when he was thinking about how to get in touch, something unexpected happened to Song Yi.
There was not much money, and staying in an inn was not a long-term solution. They could not afford a house in the city, so Song and Yi had no choice but to go to the suburbs to find a place to stay. When he walked to a deserted place, he was chased and fell into a melee.
Xue Ren, who was following, saw Cao Xian being plotted and fell to the ground after being poisoned. Song Yi helped Cao Xian retreat while fighting. When danger loomed, Xue Ren drew out his sword with a loud shout, killed the two men and stood there. Next to Song Yi.
The pursuer was already anxious, but when he saw Song Yi coming to help, he was even more anxious and confused his plan. He exchanged a cup of tea and quickly retreated before he could get it.
After the pursuers left, Song Yi solemnly thanked Xue Ren. Before Xue Ren could say anything, the poisoned Cao Xian vomited a large mouthful of blood and passed out. Song Yi carried Cao Xian on his back and went to the hospital. Xue Ren immediately raised his heels to lead the way for the two of them.
After settling the two of them in the hospital and telling Song Yi to wait here, Xue Ren returned to his home to report to Qin Zongliang.
