The peerless and dark princess

In the end, Shufeng and the others finally convinced Feng Lan. It wasn't that Feng Lan couldn't accept Gu looking for someone to spend his life with, but he just couldn't accept that person being Yan Qing. To him, Yan Qing was half a disciple, and the idea of ​​a disciple falling for his uncle was a little hard for him to accept.

Zuo Yunxin, on the other hand, excitedly headed to the Baili Inn to find Baili Ziyu. Her brother, Zuo Ci, had to accompany his newly married sister-in-law anyway, so it would be a good opportunity to give them some space and make them feel less constrained by her presence. After all, the affairs of the entire palace were supposed to be managed by her sister-in-law. Her sister had already married into the Dong family, and she would be married off in the future, so it was only natural that her sister-in-law would be in charge of this vast palace.

"Brother Tzuyu, I'm here."

"Yunxin, it's not appropriate for you to come to me so early in the morning. Your brother Zuo Ci got married yesterday, and you weren't at home?" Baili Ziyu was a little confused. Zuo Ci got married yesterday, so she should be at the palace today.

"My sister-in-law hadn't woken up when I left." Zuo Yunxin answered irrelevantly, "Besides, I wasn't in the palace so my brother and sister-in-law could..."

Zuo Yunxin didn't finish her words, but her meaning was clear. She felt that without her at the palace, her brother and sister-in-law could get along more freely and enjoy their sweet newlywed days.

Baili Ziyu shook his head slightly after hearing Zuo Yunxin's words, thinking that this little girl was really eccentric. He smiled and said, "You, are you so confident in leaving your brother and sister-in-law alone at home?"

Zuo Yunxin said nonchalantly, "What's there to worry about? My brother will definitely take good care of my sister-in-law. Besides, there are so many servants in the palace."

Baili Ziyu smiled helplessly. He knew that Zuo Yunxin was lively and cheerful and often did things as he pleased.

It wasn't that Baili Ziyu didn't understand Zuo Yunxin's feelings; he had always treated her like a younger sister. Just like years ago, when he and Zuo Ci were good friends, Baili Ziyu naturally considered Zuo Ci's older sister his own. So, when Zuo Ci brought Zuo Yunxin back to the capital, the entire city was in turmoil, and he naturally had to take good care of her. Meanwhile, Zuo Yunhan, his older sister, was being cared for by the Dong family.

Baili Ziyu is unsure how to respond to Zuo Yunxin's feelings without hurting her. He doesn't want to break their brotherly bond, but he's also worried that Zuo Yunxin might fall deeper into despair. Meanwhile, Zuo Yunxin, brimming with joy around Baili Ziyu, perhaps hasn't fully grasped his feelings for her. Where will this delicate relationship lead in the future? Will Zuo Yunxin finally let go of her feelings, or will Baili Ziyu change? Everything is uncertain.

"With your mediocre skills, don't even think about saying you learned from my uncle."

"Su Linqing, don't underestimate me. I've only been studying for a year," Chu Moxuan replied stubbornly. Besides, she'd been constantly being bullied by this uncle ever since she met him. It was such a waste of such a pretty face.

Chu Moxuan felt a little unconvinced. She felt that even though she hadn't been studying for long, she shouldn't have been criticized so harshly. She secretly made up her mind to work harder and impress Su Linqing. Su Linqing, observing Chu Moxuan's stubbornness, raised the corners of his mouth slightly. He didn't really look down on her; he simply wanted to motivate her to work harder. He knew Chu Moxuan had potential, but she just needed more training.

"Chu Moxuan, if you are not convinced, then practice hard and don't let me see such a bad performance from you next time." Su Linqing deliberately provoked her.

Chu Moxuan glared at Su Linqing and said, "Humph, just wait and see."

"Ah!! Yunxin, why is Su Linqing so hateful? Why is my generation lower than yours? Is it because my father is your senior brother?" Chu Moxuan's face was full of indignation.

Zuo Yunxin couldn't help laughing at Chu Moxuan's angry expression. "Okay, don't be angry. Things like seniority are not something we can decide," Zuo Yunxin consoled her.

Chu Moxuan was still unwilling to give in. "Humph, I just don't accept it. Every time I see Su Linqing's smug look, I get so angry, but I can't beat him. Yunxin, how about I use the medicine you gave me to knock him out and beat him up?"

"Axuan, you forgot that Senior Brother Su Linqing is an expert in both medicine and poisons, and he has also mastered martial arts to perfection. Master said that he will be the next Young Master of Lanyou Valley." Zuo Yunxin reminded Chu Moxuan.

Chu Moxuan felt even more unconvinced after hearing this. "Hmph, isn't it just his medical and poison skills, and his martial arts prowess? What's so great about that? I can work hard, and one day I'll surpass him." She secretly resolved to work hard on her medical, poison, and martial arts skills, to impress Su Linqing and elevate her status within Lanyou Valley.

Zuo Yunxin looked at Chu Moxuan's stubbornness and smiled helplessly. "Xuan, don't be so impulsive all the time. Senior Brother Su Linqing does have a lot to learn from. We should humbly ask for his advice instead of blindly fighting with him."

Chu Moxuan curled her lips and said, "I don't want to ask him for advice. I can learn it myself." But she actually knew in her heart that what Zuo Yunxin said made sense, but she just didn't want to admit it.

Zuo Yunxin was truly helpless. Su Linqing was her senior, Chu Moxuan was her best friend, and Chu Moxuan's father, Chu Lianyao, was also her senior. The relationship between them was now so complicated it was impossible to unravel. And from her observations, it seemed that Junior Senior Su Linqing had a crush on Chu Moxuan. The thought gave Zuo Yunxin a headache. If Second Senior Chu Lianyao knew, would he think he had let the wolf into the house? This relationship was truly unpredictable.

On the one hand, Zuo Yunxin hoped that Chu Moxuan would find her own happiness, but on the other, she worried that their relationship would become even more complicated. After all, in this special place like Lanyou Valley, all kinds of rules and traditions must be followed. If Su Linqing and Chu Moxuan really got together, would it cause some unnecessary trouble? Zuo Yunxin fell into deep thought, unsure how to handle this complicated relationship.

Zuo Yunxin was troubled by this complicated relationship, but Yu Yan'er didn't have such concerns. In her opinion, it was good that Junior Brother Su Linqing could keep Chu Moxuan in check. Chu Moxuan was far from being Master Yan's good disciple. If she hadn't created a fortune-telling document claiming she was seeking a husband in order to stay away from the capital and avoid being targeted by certain people, she wouldn't have been married yet. Yu Yan'er was no fool, but the father and son trio didn't understand Su Linqing's intentions.

Yu Yan'er felt that her daughter, Chu Moxuan, was too willful. Perhaps Su Linqing's supervision would help her to control her temper. She could also tell that Su Linqing was genuinely interested in Chu Moxuan. She just didn't know when these two would finally break free from this veil of indifference. It was impossible for her, her future mother-in-law, to help Su Linqing enlighten his daughter.
