Men are superior to women: the heartthrob in Yunqi

Mu Yao was surprised at Han Qi's straightforwardness, and unexpectedly, he never showed up again.

Master Li and Mu Yao stayed in "Youhuang" in fear all night, fearing that Han Qi would suddenly change his mind. They did not fall asleep until the cock crowed.

Just after the hour of Mao, Li Taifu stood up and urged Mu Yao to leave Lingshuiquan. Mu Yao looked at her father's swollen eyes with worry, and her heart was in a knot.

"Yaoyao, there is no time to lose, hurry up, Dad is fine." The two hours of light sleep did not make him sleep well at all. Master Li still had doubts about "Wuming's" good words.

Furong saw some movement in the room and brought in a hot breakfast. Seeing that Mu Yao and the Master were in a hurry to leave, she said quickly, "My Lady, Master, why don't you have some breakfast before you go? The Master has prepared a carriage and we will be out of the "Lingshui Spring" in less than half an hour."

Mu Yao heard this and asked again with concern: "Why don't I see your Lord?"

Furong was very happy that the lady cared about the master, and said cheerfully: "The master left after sending you back last night. You don't have to worry, the master will take you back as soon as possible after everything is settled."

Her words undoubtedly killed the last bit of Mu Yao's appetite. She forced a smile and said, "Furong, it's still early and we're not very hungry. I want to pick some to take with us and eat when we get hungry on the road."

Furong looked at the twelve breakfast dishes on the table with a bit of disappointment. She and Handan had prepared them before five o'clock in the morning. There were several sweet soups and porridges that could not be brought along.

"Furong, whatever the lady says is what it is. Go call Lu Shen and leave this to me." Handan walked into the room angrily. The damn girl actually secretly took away all the breakfast while she was going to get the medicine. At least two-thirds of these twelve dishes were made by her.

"My lady, the tutor is well. Please wait a moment. We will leave as soon as Lu Shen arrives." After saying that, Handan quickly packed the food box and threw away all the food that Furong had made that was not presentable.

Seeing that the two had been taking good care of her and her father during this period, Mu Yao tentatively asked, "Miss Handan, who came to pick up Lord Wang and Master Liu yesterday?"

Upon hearing this, Handan raised her eyes and smiled, "Don't worry, my lady. It was Mr. Xu San and Mr. Helian who personally took her away yesterday. You will see them when you return. Don't worry. Our Lord's word is as good as gold. Your Majesty..."

"Cough." Handan was horrified. She almost committed a capital crime. She couldn't help but shiver all over.

"Handan, what's wrong with you?" Mu Yao could see that she was unwell.

Handan suppressed her emotions and said with a bright smile: "Thank you for your concern, my lady. Handan is fine. What Handan wants to say is that our Lord is a modest gentleman. Once he opens his mouth, he will never break his promise. Please rest assured, my lady."

A modest gentleman?

Mu Yao felt a chill. How could a man who forcibly robbed a married woman be called a gentleman?

Soon, Lu Shen and Furong arrived. Before getting in the car, Handan handed the "Bamboo Dew Pill" in her arms to Mu Yao, and said with a smile: "My lady, this is what the Lord asked Handan to give you. The Lord is worried about your illness and asked you to keep it for future use."

It must be said that Han Qi's actions moved Mu Yao a little, and even Li Taifu felt the man's intentions. He gave nearly 100 million "Bamboo Dew Pills" as soon as he said it. There are not many men in the world who can afford such a thing. No matter how rich the Helian family is, it is not Helian Yun who is in charge. Who is stronger and who is weaker will be seen at once.

The carriage galloped steadily and quickly. Mu Yao lifted the curtain and saw the miniature of "Purple Cloud Peak" gradually enlarged. She was dazed for a moment. She looked at her father and was stunned for a moment.

"Yaoyao, what are you thinking about so intently?" Taifu asked after swallowing the last bite of the Qiongyu Osmanthus Cake.

Mu Yao glanced in Lu Shen's direction, shook her head and said, "It's okay, I just feel bad seeing you suffer with me these past two days."

"It's good that you can come back safely. There's no need to think too much. Come, have some sweet-scented osmanthus cake. It's moderately sweet and refreshing. Do you think it was made by those two girls? I didn't expect that Wuming could invite the noble ladies to be his maids. It's amazing." Li Taifu sighed. He also wanted to invite a few of them to take care of Yaoyao, but he couldn't. "

"Dad, those two girls are the same..." Mu Yao pointed in Lu Shen's direction and spoke in a low voice.

Li Changan was startled, shook his hands, and put down the piece of osmanthus cake.

"Are you sure?" he asked again in disbelief.

Mu Yao nodded: "Dad, I see... he is very respectful to those two girls. I guess his strength is above..." As she spoke, she lifted up her father's big hand and silently wrote the word "gold medal" on his palm.

Why was Mu Yao so sure? It was because Wang Yanzhi had told her that the two people who surrounded her that day were silver medal assassins from the Bloodthirsty Pavilion. Then weren't Handan and Furong gold medal assassins? And it seemed that Handan's status was higher than Furong's.

Li Changan was completely speechless. When he thought of the two gold medal killers from the Bloodthirsty Pavilion smiling at him, he suddenly felt terrified. Most of the noble ladies in Yunqi don't know martial arts, and it's too unbelievable that these two people would take the path of killing. "

Xu Qingcheng and the others saw an ebony carriage driving out of the Lingshui Spring, and their lifeless eyes flashed with light. Wang Yanzhi and Liu Huifeng did not go back yesterday, but stayed and stared at the Lingshui Spring in the depths with everyone.

God knows how they survived the night. When Wang Yanzhi thought of Mu Yao taking a risk to save him, he felt so heartbroken that he suffocated, and his eyes were bloodshot. Liu Huifeng was not much better, he only blamed himself for being too arrogant that day. If he had listened to Wang Yanzhi earlier and brought more people, maybe the situation would not be like this today.

Before the carriage stopped, Xu Qingcheng had already rushed forward to greet it impatiently.

Seeing Mu Yao and Li Taifu dismount safely, the heavy stone in his heart finally fell, and he fell down due to exhaustion of energy and strength.

Mu Yao was horrified, and hurried forward to hold him tightly in her arms, and fed him a "Bamboo Dew Pill".

After about ten breaths, Xu Qingcheng recovered. Through the faint glow of the morning sun, he seemed to see the person he had been thinking about.

"Brother Xu, I'm back." Mu Yao took his big hand and gently rubbed it on her face.

The clear touch made Xu Qingcheng come alive all of a sudden. At this moment, without any words, he just hugged Mu Yao's waist tightly and buried his head in her arms, deeply absorbing the unique fragrance of gardenia.

When Helian Juzheng saw that Xu Qingcheng was fine, he turned his cold gaze to Lu Shen, and the two of them confronted each other silently for a few breaths.

Seeing that his relative seemed to be ready to attack, Li Changan quickly stepped in front of him, bowed to Lu Shen and said, "Thank you for seeing me off all the way."

When Lu Shen saw the Grand Tutor bowing to him, he could not accept it, so he quickly bowed and said, "Grand Tutor, you are too polite. I will take my leave first."

Li Changan saw Helian Juzheng's gloomy expression and said with a smile, "My dear relatives, let's talk about it when we get back." He then said to Ye Qinghan and Ye Lianhe, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the King of War, why don't you withdraw your troops first? I will go back and explain everything to you before making a decision."

Ye Qinghan was a little hesitant when he heard what the Grand Tutor said. But Ye Lianhe said unwillingly: "Grand Tutor, we have prepared so many people and horses. Now we are going back without any gains. I am afraid it is not appropriate."

He was the Great Yun War King, invincible and unstoppable. When had he ever suffered such humiliation? Even if he gained nothing, destroying a few strongholds would make him feel better.

Li Changan sighed inwardly. When tens of thousands of soldiers razed the forest, they would only be disturbing the bamboos.

Mu Yao helped Xu Qingcheng up and said, "Your Highness the King of War, the Bloodthirsty Pavilion is deliberately avoiding us. I'm afraid that even if you clear the place out, you won't find anything. What's more, those halls may have ceased to exist." She felt that "Youhuang" might have been destroyed long ago.

Xu Yuanming thought deeply about it. Since his daughter-in-law and the tutor had returned safely, the crisis was temporarily resolved. He was not in a hurry to clear the Bloodthirsty Pavilion. He stepped forward and suggested, "Your Highness, the King of War, my daughter-in-law is fine. Why don't we discuss it in detail after we return?"

Ye Lianhe's anger gradually subsided when he saw Mu Yao speak. He became slightly stiff and stopped talking.

Seeing Mu Yao looking worried along the way, Li Changan patted her hands gently.

"Dad, I have something to tell you later." Mu Yao thought for a long time and then spoke.

Li Changan understood and arrived at Xu's house. Under the pretext of resting, he proposed to discuss the matter again at 3 p.m. Ye Qinghan.

Ye Qinghan had the same idea, so he immediately agreed.

In the Fangcao Garden, Helian Yun coughed violently while covering his hand with a silk handkerchief.

Doctor Wen was so anxious seeing how much he was tormenting himself that he didn't know where to start the acupuncture.

"Master Helian, if you don't cooperate with me, all your rest will be in vain! Do you know how much effort I put into your injury?"

"Where is Yaoyao? Why haven't I seen her yet?" Helian Yun asked again unwillingly.

Doctor Wen said angrily, "You haven't married yet, but you just want to stick to Lady Mu all day. What do you think Mr. Xu will think?" Wen Tairan and Xu Yuanming have been friends for many years. He wants to say a few fair words for the Xu family.

"If you don't tell me, I'll go find it myself." Helian Yun was about to get out of bed.

It really cost him his life!

Mr. Tang, where is Mr. Tang?

Last time, Helian Yun was trying hard to get out of bed, but it was only after Tang Zhongjun knocked him out with a palm that he finally behaved.

"Yoona, Yoona." Shen Zhixue's voice came all the way into the house from far away.

Shen Zhixue was jogging along the way. Seeing her son half-foot on the ground, she turned pale with fright. She quickly stepped forward to comfort him: "I've seen Yaoyao. Don't worry, Yaoyao said she will come to see you in a while."

"Mom, you lied to me again?" He had heard this so many times that his ears were callused.

"Your mother didn't lie to you. Yaoyao is talking to the tutor and will come to see you soon." Helian Juzheng strode into the house at this time.

"Dad, you!" Helian Yun felt relieved when he saw his father coming. These days, his mother said that his father had gone back home to deal with some affairs. Now it seems...

"Do you still doubt what your father said? Take good care of yourself. The later your injury heals, the later you will be able to get married. Think about it carefully." After saying that, he pulled Shen Zhixue away.

In the small pond garden

Mu Yao sat in front of Master Li and told him the truth about "Wuming"'s identity and her promise to him.

"You said he is the owner of the Treasure Pavilion, Han Qi?" Master Li's eyes were shocked and he stood up in surprise.

Mu Yao nodded heavily again.

Li Changan paced back and forth in the room, thinking for a long time, frowning and remaining silent.

Mu Yao waited quietly for her father to speak. She wanted to hear whether her father's opinion was consistent with her own.

"Come home with me later and we'll go back to Suiyuan." Tutor Li said after a while.

Mu Yao had exactly this in mind. If her estimation was correct, the Treasure Pavilion would have been deserted long ago.

Li Changan thought for a moment, and looked at Mu Yao with some hesitation, but still said: "Yaoyao, Dad wants to tell you something. The emperor intends to let you marry Wang Yanzhi. This matter was originally intended to be put on the agenda after your wedding with Helian Yun, but now it seems..."

"Wang Yanzhi saved your life, so you should not refuse this marriage. But since you have already agreed to Han Qi, whether you are interested in Wang Yanzhi or not, you have to put this marriage on hold for now. Dad will report the truth to the emperor."

What? The Emperor wants to marry me to Lord Wang?

How could this happen? She had finally mustered up the courage to accept Helian Yun, and she had just escaped from Han Qi, so why was she causing trouble again?

"Dad, you are kidding. If my daughter has to marry the man who saved her, then do I have to marry Liu Huifeng as well?" Mu Yao felt that this world was too crazy. At this rate, what would Chu Manman's twenty-eight servants mean? Sooner or later, she would surpass her.

"Well, you are right. If Liu Huifeng had this intention, Old Master Liu could really afford to ask for it. But his situation is different from Helian Yun and Wang Yanzhi. First, you have not had any physical contact with him, and second, it is not from the will of the emperor. If you don't like it, Dad can refuse it for you, don't worry. In a few days, you will give Dad the treasure that the boy gave you, and Dad will return it for you."

"Dad, I paid for it. I gave him five hundred thousand taels of silver."

Li Changan was stunned when he heard this, then he said, "I know, Dad will take care of it."

"Yaoyao, with Han Qi as your invisible barrier, you, Qingcheng, and Helian Yun can live a peaceful life."

Mu Yao thought so too. She asked with an unclear expression, "Dad, when we discuss this later, what do you think of the Bloodthirsty Pavilion?"

Li Changan stroked his white beard and analyzed, "His name may not be true. It doesn't matter whether he says it or not. Han Qi, the owner of the Treasure Pavilion, is famous throughout Dayun. If there is a problem, he would not be allowed to act so rampantly now. Dad asked you to follow me to Yangming Town just to confirm it again."

"What does Dad mean?" Mu Yao asked again uncertainly. Could it be that Dad wanted to... ?

"Yes! No! In any case, the fact that we returned safely this time is a sign of his sincerity. We should also take a step back and hide our identities, as a token of his gratitude. If the Treasure Pavilion no longer exists, it will naturally come into the sight of the higher-ups. What we have to do is not to cause trouble and not to anger him again, otherwise it will be difficult to get away safely next time."

Her father's words touched her heart, but she still had a grudge. The Bloodthirsty Pavilion had hurt her two husbands and almost killed Helian Yun. When she thought of this, she felt a strong desire for revenge again.

"Dad, if he really comes to propose to you later, will my daughter really marry him?" Mu Yao felt that she was still too weak and she didn't understand the enemy at all.

This time, Li Changan had a smile on his face. He pulled Yaoyao over lovingly and said, "Yaoyao, there's no point in running away. Right now you only have two options."

Mu Yao raised her pretty face and listened carefully to her father's teachings.

"Han Qi is very strong. His true identity is probably incomparable to ordinary people. If he really proposes to Dad, do you think Dad can refuse? Or does Dad's polite refusal have any meaning to him?"

That's right. If she lied to him again, she couldn't imagine the consequences.

"What's the other way?" Mu Yao asked with a pout.

"There is another way - haha, that is, my daughter can marry someone more powerful than him, or find a few more powerful people who can aspire to the supreme position. Then Han Qi won't be a threat anymore."

Mu Yao would never have thought that her father's teachings today would come true one by one in the days to come.
