Chapter 4 Intuition
"Master Jun really doesn't understand romance."

If she hadn't noticed that Xu Tiance's ears were very red under the brim of his hat, the beautiful woman in cheongsam would have thought that she had suffered a Waterloo with the little man in front of her.

The beautiful woman in cheongsam covered her mouth and chuckled softly, and her sweet laughter, like the sound of a ringing pendant, made people's hearts ripple.

She reluctantly withdrew her jade hand and took two steps back. "Okay, I'll do whatever you say. Then please bring in all the goods."

Following Xu Tiance's order, the convoy drove into the gate of Yunshang East Palace in an orderly manner.

Xu Tiance and the beautiful woman in cheongsam stood side by side. The former was concentrating on directing the convoy, while the latter would occasionally steal a glance at his profile.

"Master Jun is so young and yet he has earned the Duke's trust. His future is truly limitless."

"Thanks for the compliment."

"If you have time, you can also come to the Yunshang East Palace and sit for a while as a guest."

"If there's a chance in the future, I will definitely do that."

"Then it's settled. My name is Luo Xinyao, remember to look for me when the general comes."

Xu Tiance smiled politely, then found an excuse and ran away.

He had come to the Yunshang East Palace with his elite troops, not just to get acquainted with the place. Instead, he happened to encounter this little devil who deliberately seduced his lust and ruined his Daoist heart.

If you can't afford to offend him, he can always hide away.

Just a little teasing would make the innocent little boy blush and feel shy, especially since he had such a handsome appearance, which greatly pleased Luo Xinyao.

Her greatest pleasure is to enjoy the process of taming various men.

As long as she beckons her fingers, all those so-called powerful officials, nobles and geniuses will become soft as silk and fall at her feet.

Luo Xinyao withdrew her gaze from Xu Tiance and watched the convoy drive into the gate one after another.

For some reason, looking at the group of people in front of her, she unconsciously felt a strange feeling in her heart.

Everything seemed normal, but she felt something was wrong.

"elder sister."

Luo Xinyao looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was the effeminate fat man. "Xing Qi, why are you here?"

In his early years, Xing Qi was a normal man who once received a meal from Luo Xinyao. Later, Luo Xinyao's family fell into poverty, and in order to protect her, Xing Qi was crippled by a wealthy young master.

From then on, we were all sisters.

Xing Qi came to Luo Xinyao's side and said, "I came a long time ago, but I couldn't bear to disturb you, so I waited until now. What's the matter? Are you attracted to that handsome boy?"

"He's just a novice who's never even touched a woman. Although he looks good, he's still too young."

"Sister's standards are really high. She doesn't like anything. No wonder she stays alone in an empty house all year round."

Luo Xinyao suddenly grabbed Xing Qi's ear and said, "If you don't want this leaky mouth of yours anymore, I can show mercy and sew it up for you myself."

"Good sister, stop pulling, stop pulling, your ears are going to fall off."

"That's perfect. Pull it off and give it to me as a snack."

"I was wrong. I swear, I won't say it again. Sister, please forgive me this time."

Luo Xinyao snorted softly, loosened her jade hand, and continued to look at the endless stream of people.

Xing Qi rubbed his ears, humming as he came to stand beside Luo Xinyao.

"Xing Qi."

"Ok?"

"Do you feel that there's something strange about these guards?"

"Strange?" Xing Qi carefully looked at the guards of the passing convoy and shook his head. "No, they look quite normal to me."

"Don't you smell the smell of blood from them?"

"Hey my dear sister, after all, they are soldiers in the war. Their clothes have long been marinated with sweat and blood. It would be abnormal if they didn't smell of blood."

"You have a point. Maybe it's because I didn't get enough rest the last few nights, so I feel a little dazed."

"I told my sister a long time ago that it would be very hard for her to stay alone in the empty room during the long night."

"Say it again!"

Xing Qi immediately made a zipper gesture on his mouth, indicating that he really shut up.

After a while, he couldn't help but speak again, "Sister."

"Didn't I tell you to shut up? So what?"

"Sister, I've thought about it carefully, and there are some things I think I should tell you directly."

"Okay, okay, you say it, you say it."

"Sister, you're not as attractive as you used to be. You don't attract the opposite sex at all anymore."

"No charm? Didn't you see that young officer's ears turned red when I flirted with him casually?"

"I'm so young, I've barely seen a woman. Look at these guys, they didn't even glance at you the whole time. Unlike those military officers in the past, every time they saw you, they'd glue their eyes to you. The difference is clear, sister!"

Hearing this, Luo Xinyao suddenly had an epiphany, and the doubts in her heart were answered as if the clouds had been cleared and the sun had come out.

She finally knew where that strange feeling came from.

The problem is not with her, but with the group of people in front of her!
It's not that she has no charm. Even if her beauty has faded, based on her understanding of those good-for-nothings in the past, they would never treat her like they do now, not even giving her a glance.

In the past, although those people were dressed in the guise of regular soldiers, they were actually no different from bandits. When they saw women, they were like hungry wolves seeing rabbits.

But this group of people, including the young and handsome officer, gave her a completely different feeling. They were soldiers with strict military discipline and obeyed orders. They were even the elite among the soldiers.

Duke Lin of Wei rebelled, and the situation on the front line is unknown.

She didn't believe that the Wei Lin Guild would be willing to allocate some of its already scarce rebel forces to do these lousy things for him just to capture a few civilian women to satisfy his sexual desires.

Luo Xinyao's cold and charming face suddenly changed. She took a step back unconsciously and subconsciously distanced herself from them.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just a little tired."

"It seems that Sister really didn't get enough rest. Then Sister, go back and rest quickly. I will help Sister keep an eye on this place."

"No, I just need to take it easy."

Luo Xinyao forced herself to calm down. The most urgent thing was to find out what the purpose of this group of people was. She must not alert them before the other party showed their true intentions.

Even though she didn't have any evidence, she was willing to trust her intuition that there was definitely something wrong with this group of people.

Sometimes, intuition is more reliable than any evidence.

"Xing Qi, I still feel a little uncomfortable. Why don't you go make me a cup of tea?"

"Okay, sister, I'll go right away."

"Wait a minute, help me take this back and put it back in my room."

But when Xing Qi saw what she secretly gave him, his face suddenly changed.
