"Jun Ning has lost all of his martial arts now. Jun Ning, don't blame me. I am doing this for your own good. You are too smart, so losing your martial arts is good for both you and me! I can't deal with Li Ziyan, but Jun Ning, you are easy to deal with. Your biggest weakness is that you don't allow people around you to get hurt!"

Qin Zhuoyuan sat in the center of the pavilion. Qin Zhuoxi looked at Qin Zhuoyuan and asked, "Brother? What are you thinking about? Now that Jun Ning has lost all his martial arts, what do you think His Majesty is thinking?"

Qin Zhuoyuan said: "How can I know what His Majesty thinks? It's good for her to lose her martial arts. At least she doesn't have to go to marry, right?" Qin Zhuoxi frowned: "Brother, why do you think so? Jun Ning is such a proud person! Now that she has lost her martial arts, she likes to protect the people around her!" Qin Zhuoyuan looked at Qin Zhuoxi: "Sister, His Majesty made Jun Ning lose her martial arts in order to prevent her from going to marry."

Qin Zhuoxi looked at Qin Zhuoyuan: "Brother, you have been acting strange recently! The last time Jun Ning came to the mansion, you were also very strange that day!" Thinking back to the day when Zhao Jun Ning came to the Grand Tutor's Mansion, Qin Zhuoyuan was not there, so she wandered around the Qin Mansion. Qin Zhuoxi accompanied Zhao Jun Ning to the pavilion and said: "I asked Yun Zhi to get the oranges, you wait a moment!" Zhao Jun Ning nodded, and Qin Zhuoxi asked again: "You have been so close to Young Marquis Li recently, do you like him?"

Zhao Junning lowered her head shyly and glanced at the chessboard on the table. Zhao Junning asked, "Zhuoxi, is this chessboard?" Qin Zhuoxi said, "This is the chess game between my brother and Mr. Lu, but today's chess game is very strange." Zhao Junning also thought that the chessboard was very strange. Yunzhi came over with tangerines: "Miss, the tangerines are here!"

Qin Zhuoxi took the oranges: "Jun Ning, give it to you!" Zhao Jun Ning took the oranges. Qin Zhuoyuan walked over and Zhao Jun Ning stopped looking at the chessboard and walked forward and said, "Brother Zhuoyuan, thank you for the oranges!" Qin Zhuoyuan smiled and said, "If you like it, I'll bring it to you often in the future." Zhao Jun Ning nodded and left the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

Qin Zhuoyuan looked at the chessboard, then looked at the entrance of the Grand Tutor's Mansion and asked Qin Zhuoxi beside him: "Did Jun Ning look at this chessboard just now?" Qin Zhuoxi nodded and said, "Yes!" Qin Zhuoyuan's face changed immediately.

Qin Zhuoyuan thought about it and said, "People will change!"

"Today is the first day of the new year. The snow has been falling for a really long time this year." Zhao Junning sat in the pavilion looking at the snow. Yuan Xinghui said, "Yes! Junning, are you... okay?" Zhao Junning looked at Yuan Xinghui and said, "I'm fine." Yuan Xinghui grabbed Zhao Junning's hand and said, "I'll protect you from now on!"

Zhao Junning smiled and looked at Yuan Xinghui: "I know, you have been protecting me since I was a child! You don't have to comfort me, it's nothing, it's just that I can't fly over the eaves and walls and live happily in the martial arts world in the future! But I fought for myself this time. I don't want to marry and I don't want to be a tribute." Yuan Xinghui looked at Zhao Junning and didn't know what to say. Zhao Junning said: "You know, since I made a name for myself in the martial arts world, I told myself to protect everyone around me. I have learned kung fu for so long and created the martial arts world for nine years. I am satisfied! In the future, this princess will not be able to protect you."

Yuan Xinghui smiled and held back her tears and said: "Then I will protect our heroine from now on!" Zhao Junning thought in his heart: Now my kung fu is useless, then what about that dream?

In Chengyin Palace, Zhao Tianyin coughed for a long time. He Chengmeng said to the side: "Your Majesty, let's drink the medicine!" Zhao Nian, Zhao Yi, Zhao Ji, and Zhao Mo were guarding outside the palace. Zhao Tianyin said to He Chengmeng: "Let them all go back! Tell them that I am fine!" He Chengmeng walked out of the palace door: "Your Majesty, your Majesty said that he is fine, you can go back! Your body can't stand guarding the four princes in the ice and snow!" The four left hesitantly!

At the mansion, "Your Majesty is critically ill, everything has gone according to our calculations!" Lu Wu said while holding Qin's teacup. Qin Zhuoyuan said, "Next we will help the prince to succeed to the throne and establish a new country!" Lu Wu said, "It's almost time, Zhao Tianyin is not going to breathe anymore!" Then Lu Wu asked, "How did you make Zhao Tianyin force Zhao Junning to drink the medicinal wine and lose his kung fu?" Qin Zhuoyuan said, "The human heart is the most interesting thing. Sometimes it is hard to figure out, and sometimes it can be seen through. I just opened his heart and took a look." That day, Qin Zhuoyuan, the Minister of Rites, Qin Wenzhao, and Wang Luozhong met the emperor together. Wang Luozhong mentioned, "Your Majesty, Princess Fengling has reached the age of marriage, what do you think?" Zhao Tianyin was stunned when he heard the news, nodded and said, "Yes!"

Qin Zhuoyuan said, "If Your Majesty is reluctant to let the princess marry, I have a solution! I guess Your Majesty doesn't know that the princess is the famous Qingshuang heroine!" Zhao Tianyin looked at Qin Zhuoyuan after hearing this. Qin Wenzhao scolded, "Yuan'er, don't talk nonsense!" Qin Zhuoyuan cupped his hands and said, "I grew up with the princess, and I dare not lie in front of Your Majesty!" Zhao Tianyin asked, "Then I wonder what you can do?"

Qin Zhuoyuan said: "If the princess does not want to marry, then let her lose her martial arts! The Yihan people have always been on good terms with the Northern Mongolians and Handan Chi. If they knew that my Princess Da Bian did not want to marry, and she still has great skills, they would think that my Princess Da Bian is reluctant to give up this strong general to use against them in the future. After all, they lost to the sixteen-year-old Princess Yuan Gu that year. Do you think they are willing? Besides, our Princess Feng Ling has just turned 15 years old. The Yihan people will only think that we are reluctant to give up this strong general. What's more, the princess has a close relationship with Li Xiaohou, the son of Guangping Hou. If she loses her martial arts, Li Xiaohou loves her and will protect her all the time!"

After hearing this, Zhao Tianyin thought for a while and said, "Yes! Then give her two choices!" Qin Zhuoyuan took out a bottle of medicine from his sleeve and said, "This is a martial arts pill. After taking it, you will lose all your martial arts skills, but it will not harm your body! It's just that your strength will become weaker." Zhao Tianyin was stunned and slowly took the medicine and looked at it.

"Hahaha, Master Qin is really good! I've learned a lot from you in playing with people's hearts!" Lu Wu said to Qin Zhuoyuan with a smile. Qin Zhuoyuan replied, "Thanks to Master Lu's help, the bottle of medicine you gave me is the key." Lu Wu said, "I just didn't expect Zhao Junning to be able to hide it for so long, but was so determined to give up his martial arts. It's hard to figure out."

Qin Zhuoyuan said, "It's not hard to figure out. Jun Ning has had this personality since she was a child. Even gods can't change her mind about things she doesn't like! She has that kind of energy in her bones. She likes freedom and doesn't like being bound, so she would rather lose her kung fu than marry. Just think of it as me helping her this time."

"Mr. Qin's friendship with the princess"

"There is no friendship. My friends who grew up with me all thought I liked her, but in fact I approached her just to let everyone see me. I have been ignored since I was a child. My father doted on his concubine, but he was afraid that my mother would become the Grand Tutor and divorce her. My mother died in this pavilion just after giving birth to Xier. Before she died, she told me that my sister was the only companion she left for me in this world, and I must take good care of her and not let her get hurt. Later, the concubine gave birth to two children who died within a month, and the other one was protected all the time. As a father, I always praised this child in front of outsiders for how smart and filial he was."

Lu Wu shuddered when he heard that the pavilion was the burial place of Qin Zhuoyuan's mother, and asked, "But have we seen this child?" Qin Zhuoyuan raised his lips and said, "How can I tolerate others taking my things? When I was ten years old, I killed this child and threw him into the mountains. As the saying goes, you have to uproot the grass. I won't leave them even the bones. So I approached Jun Ning just to let everyone know me. But later, they had Song Ci Qiu and Li Zi Yan! This Li Zi Yan is better at martial arts than me, and he is also smart, so I used Zhao Jun Ning to hold him back."

Li Ziyan was sitting in the house of Marquis Guangping's residence. "How did your Majesty know that Jun Ning knew Kung Fu? If you knew it long ago, why didn't your Majesty ask Jun Ning? Why did your Majesty have the Kung Fu Elixir?"

Li Ziyan asked himself in his heart, and thought of Qin Zhuoyuan who walked out of the gambling house in the street today. "Qin Zhuoyuan has always been gentle and polite in front of outsiders. How could he go to the casino in public? When would he gamble for someone who wants others to praise him so much?" Li Ziyan said to himself. Mo Yu came in with tea. Li Ziyan slammed the table and scared Mo Yu so much that the tea spilled. "What a hypocrite, he wanted to use Jun Ning's loss of kung fu to hold me back. It turns out he is so afraid of me!" Mo Yu put down the tea, patted the water on his body and asked, "Sir, what's wrong with you?" Li Ziyan looked at Mo Yu and said, "Mo Yu, come here!" Mo Yu walked towards Li Ziyan tremblingly and asked, "Sir."

Li Ziyan said, "You go and keep an eye on Qin Zhuoyuan tomorrow!" Mo Yu looked at Li Ziyan after hearing this: "Master Qin is so smart?" Li Ziyan said, "You have to let him know that you are following him, but you have to keep following him and hide yourself. He will notice that you are following him, and then he will catch you. You can lead him to Xifeng Restaurant." Mo Yu asked, "Why not go to Yuchun Restaurant?" Li Ziyan said, "Jun Ning has something important to do with Miss Yuan and Ning Yi at Yuchun Restaurant tomorrow, so let's go to Xifeng Restaurant. Don't let it affect her." Mo Yu said, "Yes, Master."
