Smart! He would collect clients for a month and only chat with them. When the client is itching to get his attention, he would bid for them. Every man would want to save face. Besides, the client is the girl he likes. So he would fight for the client and spend money desperately. After all, no one wants to let the girl he likes lie under another man and enjoy his pleasure.

This can make much more money than clearly marking the price. Chu Yunxi secretly gave a thumbs up to the person who came up with this idea.

"Thank you, brother. Now we know how to help Lieutenant General Lin," Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "I just don't know how long Lieutenant General Lin and Miss Wantang have known each other. Have they ever..."

Before Chu Yunxi finished speaking, the servant already knew what she was going to say and said hurriedly, "No, no, Vice Admiral Lin has only started to come to Zui Chun Feng regularly this month and has not yet caught up with the auction."

"That's good," Chu Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief, "Does Lieutenant General Lin usually come alone? After all, this can only be done in secret, and it would be bad if too many people knew about it."

"Not at the beginning. He was often with a young man in brocade clothes. That young man never revealed his identity, and mom also specifically told us not to ask about it. But recently, that young man has not come for some reason, and only Young Master Lin comes."

The servant scratched his head, and suddenly remembered that the madam had told him not to tell anyone about the young man in brocade clothes. He had forgotten it just now, so he hesitated for a moment and said with an apologetic smile: "My two gentlemen, I told you so much because you look friendly. You can't tell others that it was me who said it, otherwise I'm afraid I'll lose my job."

Chu Yunxi and Xiao Mubei immediately understood that he had just said something he shouldn't have said and was scared.

Chu Yunxi immediately patted her chest and assured, "Don't worry, little brother, these things will not be heard by others once they have entered our ears. If it succeeds, my brother and I will definitely come back to thank you."

Seeing that the servant had become alert and could not get any more information out of him, Chu Yunxi sent him away and asked Xiao Mubei, "My Lord, what do you think?"

Xiao Mubei fanned himself gently with a fan and said, "Lin Haifu has lived in seclusion since returning to the capital. Now he comes here every day for a prostitute. There must be something fishy going on. I have been with him before, and he is not a lustful person. The young man in brocade clothes that the servant just mentioned is probably not a simple person."

"Do you want to meet Wan Tang?" Chu Yunxi also felt that something was wrong. It's not that a man from a military background couldn't get close to women, but it was inappropriate for him to be so obsessed with a woman.

"Don't alert the enemy yet. I'll let Bai Yu check who is behind Lin Haifu now."

Xiao Mubei closed his fan and pointed downstairs, "Let's go."

Chu Yunxi turned her head and saw a tall, strong-featured man in a green gown striding out. She was surprised and said, "How long has he been in? It's not even midnight yet."

"So there must be a problem." Xiao Mubei also stood up and went out to tell Bai Yu to do things.

After Bai Yu left, Xiao Mubei drove the carriage himself, and Chu Yunxi simply sat outside, side by side with Xiao Mubei.

"Your Majesty,"

"Yun Xi,"

They both spoke at the same time, smiled at each other, and Chu Yunxi said, "You speak first."

"You should speak first."

Chu Yunxi no longer wanted to be humble with him and said, "I want to ask how good is Lin Haifu's martial arts?"

Xiao Mubei said: "Lin Haifu is the best martial artist among the deputy generals of the Langya Army. In terms of internal strength, he can tie with Bai Yu. In terms of lightness, he is only slightly inferior to Bai Yu."

You have to know that Baiyu and Heimu were trained since childhood in a reputable and upright family. They were personal guards specially trained by the retired emperor for Xiao Mubei. Among the soldiers in the barracks, it is already very powerful for them to be able to fight them to a draw.

Chu Yunxi nodded, thinking for a while, and then she asked, "My Lord, what did you want to say just now?"

Xiao Mubei looked at Chu Yunxi and said slowly: "If you have time in the next few days, please accompany me to the palace."

Chu Yunxi was shocked. "Enter the palace? Why? Am I not just a concubine? Why do I need to enter the palace to express my gratitude?"

She didn't want to meet the foolish Emperor Sui Ming.

Xiao Mubei held her hand and said, "I'm not going to thank you, I just want to take you to meet my grandfather."

Xiao Mubei's grandfather? Isn't that... the emperor?

Chu Yunxi felt a little nervous. She had never seen such a big shot before.

"Is your grandfather a vicious person?" Chu Yunxi asked apprehensively.

Seeing her nervous look, Xiao Mubei couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips. He deliberately slowed down his speech, "Of course he is fierce." Seeing Chu Yunxi's face wrinkled, he continued, "But that's to others. He's not fierce to me, and he won't be fierce to you either."

"Really?" Chu Yunxi was skeptical.

"real."

Xiao Mubei made a solemn promise, with longing in his eyes. He grew up beside the retired emperor, and his martial arts and strategies were all taught by the retired emperor. After returning this time, he only went to see him once. The old man's health was getting worse day by day. He had long wanted to ask Chu Yunxi to go and help him, but he had never encountered the right opportunity.

Now that Chu Yunxi is married, it would be legitimate for her to be brought into the palace. Xiao Mubei also has his own selfish motives, so he would take her to see the retired emperor on the pretext of their wedding.

Chu Yunxi had no idea what Xiao Mubei was planning. Ever since she heard that she was going to enter the palace, her mind was filled with this matter. What should she say when she meets the emperor, how should she behave appropriately, and what topics should she talk about?

The two returned to Dali Temple with their own thoughts. Chu Yunxi was already exhausted. Working around the clock every day would not be enough for anyone even with a healthy body, let alone her.

Unexpectedly, Hongyu was there. She told Chu Yunxi that the prince had sent someone to pick her up and serve Chu Yunxi.

Careful prince.

Hongyu had already boiled some hot water. Chu Yunxi had originally planned to go to bed straight after returning home, but now she could take a hot bath before going to bed, so why not?

The moment her whole body was soaked in the hot water, Chu Yunxi sighed comfortably and murmured, "Why is my life so miserable?" She was destined to work overtime wherever she went.

Hongyu didn't hear clearly what she said. When she wanted to ask again, she saw that Chu Yunxi had closed her eyes. Hongyu stopped talking and helped Chu Yunxi wash her body. She heard her breathing gradually become steady and she actually fell asleep while washing.

Hongyu was in a dilemma now. Although she knew some martial arts skills, most of them were just fancy moves and her internal strength was negligible. It was really difficult for her to get a living person out of the bathtub. But she had to do it because the water had to be cold. Once the water was cold, Chu Yunxi would definitely catch a cold. And she couldn't sleep in the water all night. What should she do?
