"I...how could I?" Wang Yuyan retorted immediately. Come on, it's not like I don't want to. Why are you doing this to me?

"Wang Yanran said you were waiting for me, so I came in." Li Xingyun sold out Wang Yanran in a very unkind way.

"Yanran?" Wang Yuyan was stunned. The other party went out and never came back. Could it be that Yanran was assisting?

Just as Wang Yuyan was imagining this, Li Xingyun had already walked to the water's edge and asked.

"Is the water cold?"

"Ah? It's not cold, it's a hot spring." Wang Yuyan was stunned and replied immediately.

"Then I'll take a shower too." Li Xingyun nodded, quickly took off all his clothes, and jumped into the hot spring, splashing water.

“You…you…” Wang Yuyan pointed at Li Xingyun with her jade finger, her face full of shock, and she even forgot to cover herself.

"Do you want me to rub your back?" Li Xingyun walked up to Wang Yuyan with a smile, grabbed her hand and asked.

"I...no...don't want to." Wang Yuyan just wanted to bury her head in the water. This was too embarrassing!

At night, Liu Ruyan, Li Qiuxue and others gathered around the table, staring blankly at the table full of delicious food.

"Where is Xingyun?" Liu Ruyan asked, supporting her chin with one hand. She hadn't seen Li Xingyun since the afternoon and didn't know what he was busy with.

"I don't know, maybe it's something important." Li Qiuxue shook her head.

"Why aren't you eating? Are you waiting for me?" Li Xingyun was very energetic after exercising. He walked into the room and asked with a smile.

Seeing Li Xingyun, Linglong immediately stood up and walked to his side, helped him take off his coat, and pulled out a chair.

"Where have you been? You're so secretive that even Xiao Wangzi doesn't know." Liu Ruyan asked as she picked up a piece of meat and put it into Li Xingyun's bowl.

"Hehe...I did go out to do something." Li Xingyun smiled without explaining.

"Come, eat."

The small courtyard on the other side was peaceful and tranquil. Moonlight streamed down the ground like water, casting a silver veil over the entire courtyard. Wang Yanran tiptoed into the room, approached the bed, and, looking at the sleeping Wang Yuyan, a wave of pity welled up in her heart.

She cautiously reached out her hand and gently tucked the quilt in for Wang Yuyan, muttering softly, "This King Qin is such a jerk! How could he...how could he be so frivolous with you? Even if...even if he wanted to be frivolous, he couldn't be so rude and disrespectful! He simply doesn't know how to be gentle with women!"

Wang Yanran became more and more angry as she spoke, and her voice unconsciously rose a little. At this moment, Wang Yuyan, who had been sleeping, suddenly opened her eyes and shouted coquettishly: "Yanran!"

The cry was like thunder, startling Wang Yanran. She quickly covered her mouth, afraid to say anything else. However, it was too late. Wang Yuyan sat up, her face flushed, and asked, "What about him? Don't you know I was taking a shower? Why did you let him in to see me?"

Wang Yuyan felt ashamed and angry when she thought about being caught by the King of Qin while bathing. She stared at Wang Yanran with wide eyes, waiting for her to give a reasonable explanation.

Facing Wang Yuyan's questioning, Wang Yanran seemed a little embarrassed and flustered. She waved her hands helplessly and stammered, "I... I'm not what you think."

Seeing Wang Yanran like this, Wang Yuyan was furious. She crossed her arms and said with a stern face, "Humph, then tell me quickly! What's going on?"

Wang Yanran took a deep breath, collected herself, and then slowly began to recount what had happened: "Well... I was about to go out to get some water when I passed by where you were bathing. Suddenly, I saw His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin standing by the outer wall, his eyes fixed on it, with an unpleasant smile on his face. It looked like... like he was peeping. I was anxious for the moment, thinking I couldn't just accuse him directly, so... then I had an idea and told him you were waiting for him inside."

After saying this, Wang Yanran lowered her head, not daring to look into Wang Yuyan's eyes like a child who had done something wrong.

"I originally wanted him to give up and leave on his own initiative, but... I didn't expect him to jump in on his own!" Li Yanran held her forehead with one hand, speechless.

“He…ah!”

"Does he need to peek?" Wang Yuyan was speechless. Li Xingyun was very brave. How could he peek? He would just... do it directly!

"Good sister, I was wrong. What do you think of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin? Is he powerful?" Wang Yanran lay on Wang Yuyan and started to act coquettishly, asking some embarrassing questions with a blushing face.

"You...you'll know if you try it yourself." Wang Yuyan blushed and quickly buried her head in the quilt.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window onto Li Xingyun. He rose early and headed for his study. When he entered, the room was already filled with Jing Xinmo and his trusted associates. Their expressions were solemn, for they knew today would be the day for a crucial discussion—how to completely control the vast land of Southern Xinjiang within just seven days.

Li Xingyun slowly walked to the desk and sat down, his gaze scanning everyone present. He took a deep breath and spoke calmly, "Everyone is here. I intend to completely control Southern Xinjiang within seven days. What are your opinions on this?" As soon as he finished speaking, the study fell into silence.

After a moment, Xuanxuzi broke the silence first, frowned and said: "Seven days? This is probably too hasty! Southern Xinjiang is a vast area, and the situation is complex and changeable. It is really difficult to do it in seven days!" His tone was full of worry and doubt.

However, at this moment, Old Feng laughed cheerfully and responded loudly: "I think it is feasible! Your Highness, you have great ambitions, and your goal is the endless sea of ​​stars. How can the mere Southern Xinjiang stop you from moving forward? In my opinion, seven days is enough!" Old Feng has always been loyal to Li Xingyun and obeyed his orders. As long as it is a decision made by the prince, no matter how difficult and dangerous it is, he will support it to the end without hesitation.

Then, Jing Xin Mo also nodded in agreement and said, "Your Highness must have a deep meaning behind his actions. We don't need to argue here about whether we can achieve the goal within seven days. Instead, we should think about how to achieve it, which is the key." His words were like a revelation, and everyone woke up.

Indeed, since Li Xingyun dared to propose such a seemingly impossible task, he must have a thorough plan and full confidence.

"Well, Xiao Wangzi, analyze how to control Southern Xinjiang." Li Xingyun sat on a solid wooden chair, his eyes fixed on the Mirror Heart Demon below. By this time, everyone in the hall had understood the topic of the discussion and fell silent, waiting for the Mirror Heart Demon's profound speech.

Mirror Heart Demon nodded slightly and replied, "Yes." Then, he stood up slowly and walked to the desk nearby. He pulled a brush from the pen holder and spread out a sheet of snow-white rice paper. Then, he lowered his head and began to ponder. For a moment, the entire hall was silent, the only sound being the gentle rustling of the brush tip against the paper, like a quiet and mysterious melody.
