Female martial arts fanatics only love to fight, while men fight for their lives.

A few days later.

With a "bang", the medicine bowl in his hand was smashed to the ground, and the hot brown liquid with a bitter taste splashed everywhere.

In the dark room, the servants immediately knelt down to serve, and no one dared to say a word.

The man's chest rose and fell with his breathing, and he couldn't help coughing. Once he started, it was hard to stop.

He covered his chest, and his whole body seemed to be trapped in a chair, with his hair messy from coughing.

The servants swarmed over and poured water, some to calm down, some to calm down. The older servant anxiously ordered the kitchen to boil another dose of medicine.

He coaxed his generous master in a soft voice, "Your Highness, Your Highness, the medicine will be here soon, please drink some, don't be angry... Your health is important!"

The man's face was covered by black hair, revealing only a pair of distinct black and white eyes. Due to the violent coughing, his dark eyeballs were covered with a layer of mist, and the bloodshot whites of his eyes were like red cracks on white porcelain, which was shockingly beautiful.

He slowly straightened his breath and said through gritted teeth, "If I had known this would happen... I should have stayed in the capital!"

Why would I compete with that half-blood monster for credit or fame? I'd rather miss the chance to meet her!

"Now that things have come to this, Your Highness, why should you be angry? Just do what His Majesty has ordered. It won't be too late to deal with them when you return!" The servant advised him carefully.

"If she is really as good as Your Highness said, how could she be so irresistible to temptation? Who in the capital can be better than Your Highness! As soon as you go back, Li Huaiqing will be nothing to you!"

The indignation of the personal servant did not completely suppress the man's boiling emotions. He took a deep breath and sneered,

"Just a mere mortal?... That's Li Huaiqing! He was once said to be the empress. My sister wisely dashed his hopes of ascending to the throne, and now he has set his sights on my Xiaoxiao..."

He was a little anxious. "No, she is devoted to martial arts and has a simple mind. How can she see through the true face of that treacherous fox? He is the best at bewitching people. My little... cough cough cough cough..."

Before he could finish, he coughed again. He covered his mouth and almost vomited his internal organs. Fortunately, the medicine bowl was brought to him in time.

The older waiter hurriedly picked it up to test the temperature, then coaxed him to drink it.

After all this commotion, the man finally calmed down, holding the old servant's hand, breathing with a frown on his face.

The hair on his forehead was wet with sweat and stuck to his porcelain-white skin. The servant wiped it carefully with a handkerchief, cursing the vixen Li Huaiqing on behalf of his master.

"This won't do..." He calmed down completely and opened his eyes, which were full of viciousness, "We can't keep him here... Someone, come! Bring me paper and pen!"

He wanted to write a letter to Ji Heng personally and kill that vixen!

The personal servant could of course guess what he was thinking. He held the paper and pen in his hand and refused to give it to him, but he did not advise him to think twice. "Your Highness, it is better for me to write the letter. If something happens... His Majesty cannot blame you."

Even though she knew of his willfulness, Her Majesty the Queen always had a soft heart towards him. As long as it wasn't a huge disaster, there was always room for improvement.

Fearing that the man would insist, the old servant knelt down and said, "He is the leader of the Li family and is related to the interests of the aristocratic family. If he dies, it will definitely shock the court. When we investigate, we can say that everything was decided by me on my own..."

The man's eyes trembled for a long time without saying anything, while the old servant had already written down the words.

After a while, he compromised softly and said, "It doesn't have to be that he has to die... Just make sure he doesn't have the chance to pester her again..."

Finally, it was the old servant who had been by his side for many years who brought back his rationality. The man calmed down and spoke in a much softer voice, "Tell Ji Heng to be careful... and pay attention to Xiao Zhengdu. He loves to compete with me. Don't let him have any small ideas."

But if he did something to show that he cared about her, the half-blood monster would definitely take the opportunity to get close to Xiaoxiao in order to make him angry.

He regretted that the devil had made him test her, but how could he be blamed? They hadn't seen each other for many years, and he just...

He was just afraid that she had changed.

"Forget it, don't worry about Xiao Zhengdu." The man kept changing his mind, and he was confused before he met her, but no one dared to question anything.

After the old servant scribbled and revised, he rewrote a new one and handed it to him for review. The man glanced at it and gave it to him, "Go ahead."

Let Ji Heng take care of her for me and wait for my return.

───────

Xiao Zhengdu was pondering that man's thoughts. On the one hand, he was persistently trying to annoy those old-fashioned people in the Ministry of Rites, and on the other hand, he was ordering people to keep track of any movement from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and the Li family.

He wanted to personally go to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to block Lou Xiao and stop her from having any further contact with the Li family, but after hearing the news, they had no further contact...

Moreover, Lou Xiao hasn't appeared for several days, and no one knows where she has gone.

It’s weird.

However, as long as it’s not with Li Huaiqing, it’s fine.

Although Li Huaiqing was surrounded by many capable people who were good at hiding their whereabouts, he was very sure that Li Huaiqing did not continue to have anything with Lou Xiao...

Who can keep calm?

He can't wait to see when the show starts!

────

Lou Xiao was wearing a very plain training outfit, with only a sandalwood hairpin to hold her hair tightly together.

Lights flickered all around, and candelabras illuminated the wide hall, illuminating not only her figure in the darkness, but also the various weapons hanging on the walls.

Her face was shadowed in the flickering candlelight. At this moment, Lou Xiao seemed like a different person. She exuded a murderous aura, as if everyone she saw were ants.

And she can harvest it at will without asking why.

"I respectfully ask the Duke of Zhenguo to give me some advice."

Voices came from the darkness, and many figures in black emerged from all sides of the hall. Some were tall, some were short, and all were wrapped tightly, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, looking at their targets without any emotion.

It’s Lou Xiao standing in the middle.

"Your Majesty asked me to exercise. I thought it was with Officer Ling Yu. The last time we fought was a few years ago. Are these newcomers? They look too young. Are they going to be their sparring partners?"

Lou Xiao was unwilling to fight with kids who were not even as tall as her, even though she knew they were not ordinary people.

"I am an old man, I cannot fight with you!" Ling Yu said with a smile in the corner, "These are the best ones, and they will have to take on the responsibility of protecting His Majesty soon.

They have learned almost everything they need to learn, but there is only one thing they need to experience in person... just in case they really encounter it in the future."

Before Ling Yu Shiguan finished speaking, Lou Xiao already understood.

The most important thing is how to deal with a martial artist like her.

"In that case," Lou Xiao moved her wrist and looked more relaxed. As long as it wasn't a fight of life and death, she would no longer be filled with murderous intent. "Come on."

As he spoke, his figure flashed and in the blink of an eye he landed in front of the person closest to Officer Ling Yu.

"You are too slow."
