After leaving Furongyuan, Bai Chuyun caught up with her and said, "Big sister, wait for me."

Bai Chuxiao and Lan Xiang Qing Zhu stopped and asked with a smile, "Third sister, is there anything else?"

"Yun'er wants to go sit with big sister, is that ok?" Bai Chuyun said cheerfully.

"Of course, let's go." Bai Chuxiao likes this cute and cheerful girl very much. She also has an old friend who is also from the Zhao family. Naturally, she is willing to get closer to this sister.

Bai Chuyun went up to Bai Chuxiao and took her arm, then looked at Qingzhu and said excitedly, "You are the one wielding the whip, can you teach me a few moves?"

She shook Bai Chuxiao's arm again, "Big sister, you don't know, I've always wanted to learn martial arts, but mom never allowed me to. She always forced me to learn music, chess, calligraphy, painting, embroidery, etc., but I don't like them at all."

Bai Chuxiao asked curiously, "Why do you want to learn martial arts? Nowadays, Daxia values ​​literature over martial arts. It is said that people in Kyoto regard those generals as reckless men. As a young lady from the Xiangfu family, it would not sound good if this were spread out."

Bai Chuyun sighed, "Yes, my mother also said so. Just like His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, he has won many battles, which is obviously a very glorious thing, but he is not welcomed by the young ladies in Kyoto."

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the Liuli Courtyard and sat on the stone table in the courtyard. Lanxiang went to serve tea, and the two of them sat there drinking tea and chatting.

Bai Chuxiao picked up the teacup, looked at the girl in front of him, and suddenly joked, "You just mentioned King Yan, and you seemed to admire him very much. Do you like him..."

Bai Chuyun put down the teacup, "How is that possible? Besides, he's your fiancé, how can Yun'er like him?"

Speaking of the King of Yan, Bai Chuxiao thought of something and asked again, "I have something that I find very strange. I am not in the capital for many years. How could this marriage fall on me?"

Bai Chuyun approached her and whispered, "I secretly heard mother and father talk about this matter. The imperial decree only granted marriage to the legitimate daughter, but the second sister did not want to marry, so they proposed to bring you back to marry."

Bai Chuxiao asked playfully, "Oh? Then who does she want to marry?"

Bai Chuyun snorted coldly, "This second sister is so ambitious, how can she bear to be inferior to others? Now the Crown Prince, the Prince of Xiang, and the Prince of Qi are in full swing, I think she is overwhelmed by the choices now."

After another pause, "But the King of Qi will not be attracted to her."

Bai Chuxiao laughed and joked, "It seems that you are pleased with the King of Qi."

Bai Chuyun lowered her head again and sighed, "Sister, I only told you this, it was just a fantasy and a joke. I know myself well. I am just a concubine's daughter. The King of Qi will never fall in love with me."

Bai Chuxiao comforted her, "There is a long way to go. You are still young now. Can you tell if you like someone? It is normal for a girl to have a little admiration for someone, but it does not necessarily mean true love."

Then he changed the subject and asked with a smile, "Have you seen the King of Yan? What does he look like?"

Bai Chuyun regained her spirits, "I saw him from afar. His sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, his aura seems to be stronger than that of several princes in the capital..."

In this way, the two sisters chatted for a while, and then Bai Chuyun left.

After noon, Bai Chuxiao was really bored, so she lightly drew a few strokes on her face, changed into white men's clothes, tied her hair up high, and thought about sneaking out.

Qingzhu laughed foolishly, "Miss, you are so pretty like this. The girls outside will definitely be unable to take their eyes off you when they see you."

Bai Chuxiao tapped her head with a folding fan and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I'm going out for a walk. You stay at home and don't let anyone find out."

As he said this, he waved his folding fan and went out. Bai Chuxiao walked on the most prosperous Suzaku Street, and then turned to enter the Tianshuilou, the largest restaurant in Kyoto. The shopkeeper saw Bai Chuxiao coming in and bowed quickly, saying, "Second Young Master, you haven't been here for a long time." The shopkeeper led Bai Chuxiao upstairs.

Bai Chuxiao asked with a smile, "Is the eldest master here?"

"The eldest master hasn't come today, so please go and invite him!" the shopkeeper asked respectfully.

"Go and invite them. I'll go up myself and serve a pot of good wine and some of the latest dishes," Bai Chuxiao ordered gracefully.

Bai Chuxiao came to the third floor and sat down in a spacious private room with a window. The third floor was usually not open to the public, but as the second master behind Tianshui Building, she could naturally

Soon, the waiter brought everything. While eating, Bai Chuxiao looked at Qingyi Pavilion opposite and couldn't help but think of the mysterious Xue Wuyun. At this moment, Zhao Sifang, dressed in a red robe, pushed the door open and laughed, "Brother Zui'an, you are finally back."

Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Brother Sifang, you are still so suave and charming." To describe Zhao Sifang in modern terms, he is "conspicuous". He looks good and always likes to wear red clothes.

Zhao Sifang is the eldest son of the Zhao family's patriarch, and Aunt Zhao in the mansion is his father's half-sister. So, Bai Chuyun should call Zhao Sifang her cousin.

Two years ago, Zhao Si was doing business in the northwest and was attacked. Bai Chuxiao saved him when he met him on the road. After a while, the two became friends. After Bai Chuxiao knew his identity, she provided him with many ideas.

Bai Chuxiao came up with the idea, and he paid for it. Together, they opened the Tianshuilou restaurant and Qiuyuefang, a popular clothing and jewelry store in Beijing. By the way, Bai Chuxiao is now a wealthy woman.

In order to facilitate business, Bai Chuxiao changed her name to Su Zuian and often entered and left the capital in men's clothing. However, Zhao Sifang knew her true identity.

Zhao Sifang sat down and picked up his wine glass. Bai Chuxiao clinked glasses with him and asked with a smile, "Is there anything interesting happening in Kyoto now?"

Zhao Sifang took a sip of wine and joked, "Yes, isn't it Zuian Ni?"

Bai Chuxiao rolled her eyes at him, and he continued, "It is now widely rumored that Miss Bai is talentless and immoral, and a sickly woman. The King of Yan doesn't want to marry you and wants to break off the engagement."

He looked righteous and said, "Don't be afraid, Zui'an. If the King of Yan really cancels the engagement, I will definitely take you in."

Bai Chuxiao slapped him with her palm, wishing she could kill him, and angrily said, "Zhao Sifang, are you looking for death?"

"I think the King of Yan will have a hard time in the future," Zhao Sifang said without fear of death.

"Speak seriously to me," Bai Chuxiao waved her folding fan and said unhappily

Zhao Sifang ate a few bites of food and said with emotion, "What else could it be? Southern Xinjiang suffered a defeat and sent a Princess Lingxiang here to marry, but His Majesty has not summoned her yet. Everyone is talking about who will be the princess's husband."

Then he reminded her, "You are now the fiancée of the King of Yan. Princess Lingxiang may not treat you well. You have to be careful."

Bai Chuxiao pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Qingyi Pavilion, "Do you know who is the master behind Qingyi Pavilion?"

"It's quite mysterious and I haven't found out anything, just like your identity, Zui'an." Zhao Sifang was a little suspicious. Zui'an had never asked about it before.

Bai Chuxiao said calmly, "I'm just asking casually. By the way, your cousin is pretty good."

"What cousin? Is it your Bai Chuyun? I don't have much contact with them. I have only seen them a few times during the holidays. We are not close," Zhao Sifang said indifferently.

Bai Chuxiao warned, "You have to take better care of her in the future. My third sister's temper is quite to my liking."

Zhao Si laughed loudly, "Since Zui'an has spoken, I will naturally take it to heart."
