As soon as Li Qingqing finished speaking, several people in the room looked at her at the same time.

Li Qingqing reacted immediately and realized that she had made a big promise in her excitement.

This means she has now made it clear where she stands.

She was previously ambiguous, but now she can no longer stay out of it.

But so what? Isn’t everything she, Zhou Yimo, and Xie Xuan’an doing now related to the peace and well-being of the people?

Li Qingqing looked at Zhou Yimo and asked, "Husband, what do you think?"

Zhou Yimo already had a firm belief in his heart. When he heard Li Qingqing's question, he immediately nodded and said:

"My lady, you are absolutely right. Although I am not talented, I am willing to work with you to assist His Royal Highness Prince Qing."

Although he is a weak scholar, he is also passionate in his heart.

Besides, as a man, he has to protect his wife and keep her secrets.

At this moment, Xie Xuan'an was extremely excited when he heard this, and that inexplicable emotion that was difficult to suppress instantly blocked his heart.

Since childhood, he and Mu Yunjing have been like brothers. They supported each other in their youth, and their deep feelings have long been deeply rooted.

As a loyal follower of Mu Yunjing, he always hopes that more people can support Mu Yunjing.

He knew that Li Qingqing and the others were not the kind of people who would make promises easily, and they would always keep their words.

He thought he was doomed, and when he made the "last words of entrustment", he did not let Li Qingqing and Zhou Yimo make the promise in person.

I didn't expect that Li Qingqing would take the initiative to propose it.

Does this mean that from now on, they will be true family members, fighting side by side?

Xie Xuan'an was deeply moved.

Li Feng was touched after hearing what Li Qingqing said.

Although this was his first time interacting with Li Qingqing and Zhou Yimo, he had already heard about their abilities from Xie Xuanan and others.

Moreover, he had just fought with Li Qingqing and could feel Li Qingqing's extraordinary strength.

Li Feng's gaze lingered on Zhou Yimo and Li Qingqing. He smiled and nodded, then said, "If His Royal Highness Prince Qing had the help of you two, he would be even more powerful!"

However, when he looked at Li Qingqing again, he couldn't help but be stunned.

It was a little dark outside the yard at night, and he couldn't see clearly. When he was inside the house, there was a difference between men and women, so he couldn't see closely.

Now, when I look at it carefully, I feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity in my heart.

Li Feng suppressed his doubts and asked, "Miss Li, have we met before? Why do I feel like you look familiar?"

Li Qingqing was slightly startled. She exchanged a glance with Zhou Yimo, then smiled and said, "I grew up in Qiushui Town, and today is my first time meeting you."

After hearing this, Li Feng frowned slightly, as if he was trying hard to recall something.

After a long moment, he shook his head and said with a smile, "It's too late. Let's all go to bed."

Xie Xuan'an immediately called his men to arrange for the two of them to rest in a guest room.

Zhou Yimo and Xie Xuan'an have been living here recently, so naturally they each go back to their own room.

At noon, Mu Yunjing and the Minister of Revenue arrived as expected.

However, Zhou Yimo had been called away by Master Qiu two hours ago, saying that he was going to deal with a human trafficking case.

Li Qingqing thought that this was a good thing, as it would save him from meeting the Minister of Revenue.

In the reception room, Li Qingqing looked at Mu Yunjing with a smile and said, "Congratulations, now I should call you 'Your Highness Prince Qing'!"

"Qingqing, there's no need to be so formal with each other. It's more comfortable to just call me by my name." Mu Yunjing waved his hand and said seriously:

"Besides, if it weren't for the universal antidote pills you gave me last time I returned to the Protectorate, I would have been in great danger again. So you've saved me twice."

Moreover, because of Zhou Xier, the Minister of Revenue finally became his man, and he no longer had to worry about food and fodder.

Li Qingqing smiled and was about to speak when the Minister of Revenue, who was sitting below her, hurriedly said:

"Miss Li, thank you and your husband for saving my daughter. I heard your husband's surname is also Zhou. I wonder where he is now. I want to thank him in person."

Li Qingqing carefully looked at the Minister of Revenue and found that he looked somewhat similar to Zhou Yimo. She smiled and said:

"He was called by Master Qiu to handle matters at the county government office. There's no rush. We'll have a chance to meet him in the future."

The Minister of Revenue heard this without any doubt and nodded, expressing his understanding of Zhou Yimo's busy schedule. He said, "Okay, then thank him for me."

Li Qingqing nodded to indicate that she understood.

At this moment, Yunying came over to report that Zhou Xier had arrived.

When the Minister of Revenue heard this, his face immediately showed excitement.

Mu Yunjing immediately ordered: "Please let her in."

Not long after, Xier ran into the hall excitedly and saw Li Qingqing at a glance. She ran towards Li Qingqing, laughing and shouting as she ran:

"Big sister, here I come!"

The Minister of Revenue was filled with joy, and watched Zhou Xier running towards him with tears in his eyes.

But he didn't expect that Xier didn't even look at him, and ran straight to Li Qingqing.

He couldn't help but say anxiously: "Xi'er! Your father is here!"

Xier heard this and looked sideways, only to see Mu Yunjing sitting in the main seat with an expressionless face. She couldn't help but point at him angrily:

"Yun Jing, why is it you? Do you still want to be my father?!"

When the Minister of Revenue heard this, he was so scared that he almost slipped off his chair.

Oh, my little ancestor!

He quickly stood up and yelled, "Zhou Xier! Shut up!"

As she spoke, she hurriedly bowed to Mu Yunjing and explained bitterly, "My daughter has been naughty. I hope Your Highness Prince Qing will forgive me!"

The Minister of Revenue thought that he must discipline her strictly this time when he returned, otherwise one day his Zhou family would be ruined by Xier.

Mu Yunjing waved his hand to indicate that he didn't mind.

Only then did Xier notice the Minister of Revenue standing beside her. She was slightly stunned and looked carefully!

Oh my god, why is my dad here?

Xier then revealed an awkward smile: "Dad, why are you here too?"

"Come here! Apologize to His Royal Highness Prince Qing immediately!" The Minister of Revenue said with a serious face.

"Your Highness Prince Qing?" Xier turned to look at Mu Yunjing, somewhat puzzled.

Only then did she realize that Mu Yunjing was wearing a dark blue satin robe with clouds and dragons embroidered on it with gold thread, and a valuable jeweled jade belt around his waist.

Xier looked carefully and became more and more shocked.

My goodness! This person is obviously a member of the royal family!

In the past, her family was afraid that she would get into trouble, so they forced her to learn etiquette and identify people of noble status. She remembered it clearly.

It’s over, it’s over, she’s in trouble again, and this time it’s going to implicate my father and elder sister!

Xier quickly plopped down on her knees.

"Your Highness, Prince Qing, your humble servant Xier has offended you greatly just now. I hope Your Highness will show magnanimity!"

No matter whether he is Yun Jing or His Royal Highness Prince Qing, that is secondary. Apologize first.

Mu Yunjing looked at Xi'er who was kneeling in front of him, a barely perceptible smile flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Get up, it's okay."

Seeing this, the Minister of Revenue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
