After seeing Qin Yanling off, Qin Yu snorted coldly and flicked his sleeve.

"Heh, I'd like to see what kind of trouble you're up to."

"Princess! I have good news to tell you!"

When Chunfeng came to Qin Yu, she saw that Qin Yu's face did not look good. She swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

"What's the matter?"

Qin Yu frowned, her face cold.

When Yu Zhu arrived, she saw Qin Yu's slightly angry expression and couldn't help but think, "That damned guy has angered my princess again!"

Qin Yu sensed what the two of them were thinking and softened her expression.

"If anything happens, feel free to tell me."

"Princess, the Lantern Festival is approaching!"

There was a hint of expectation in her eyes.

"The Lantern Festival?" Qin Yu looked up, thinking how quickly time had passed.

Just now, "What did His Majesty say to you?"

As soon as Mo Yun entered, he began to seriously question Qin Yu.

Suddenly I realized I seemed to be performing Yue Opera...

"Princess, I am guilty."

"What crime?"

Mo Yun keeps saying he's guilty! Qin Yu needs to find a way to break this habit of his.

"Your Majesty, you only asked me about my feelings for the Prince Yu."

So that's how it is. For some reason, Mo Yun felt a sense of relief.

Seeing the change in Mo Yun's expression, Qin Yu stood up. "I would like to have a friendly spar."

"What?" Mo Yun asked in surprise.

"you……"

Qin Yu was holding a sword in her hand. The sword was emerald green with tassels on the hilt and a phoenix carved on the blade, seemingly indicating that Qin Yu was a daughter of the phoenix.

Before Mo Yun could react, Qin Yu had already charged towards him with her sword in hand.

Mo Yun reacted quickly, performing a side flip to successfully dodge Qin Yu's attack.

"Wow! So awesome!"

Chunfeng and Yuzhu stood to the side, their eyes wide open like copper bells.

Qin Yu's sword was extremely sharp, and streaks of sword wind slashed towards Mo Yun.

Mo Yun couldn't help but keep retreating, adopting a defensive stance.

But none of them dared to attack Qin Yu.

Seeing Mo Yun's cautiousness, Qin Yu couldn't help but ask.

"Why are you afraid of hurting me now?"

"Subordinate..."

Could it be that this guy has fallen for her?

She checked Mo Yun's feelings again and found that he didn't seem to like her, only had a slight liking for her. She felt a little unhappy.

"I advise you to fight me properly, otherwise I'll send you to experience the eighteenth level of suffering!"

After all, before this, Qin Yu had set up some physical training mechanisms to increase his strength. Even the most powerful person would be badly injured if they came out of these mechanisms.

Mo Yun began to counterattack, attacking Qin Yu, but noticed that Qin Yu was somewhat distracted, and almost injured Qin Yu directly.

Mo Yun hurriedly sheathed his sword, but Qin Yu slipped and fell with a thud, her sword falling straight into the lotus pond behind her. Mo Yun reacted quickly, catching her around the waist and lightly touching the lotus leaves with his toes.

Chunfeng and Yuzhu were stunned by this scene.

"For some reason, I find the princess and the guard to be a good match."

After all, Mo Yun was extremely beautiful... and this beauty was not the feminine beauty of a woman, but more like the bewitching beauty of a man.

Cheng Qixia, who had come here, saw everything they did.

Cheng Qixia dropped the fan from her hand, feeling extremely displeased.

"The princess certainly has a refined taste, as she's with just the two guards..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu turned around and was surprised to find that it was Cheng Qixia who had arrived.

"I only wanted to see if my strength had improved. Does Your Highness have time to come here again? Is Your Highness perhaps enjoying some leisure time these days?"

Qin Yu bent down and picked up the sword from the ground.

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes as she charged directly towards Cheng Qixia.

Upon seeing Qin Yu's arrival, Cheng Qixia hurriedly used her folding fan to defend herself.

Unexpectedly, they were still beaten and forced to retreat, with no chance to fight back.

"Cough cough..." A trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

"What a piece of trash!"

"The princess is indeed worthy of being called a princess; her martial arts skills are so superb that I am ashamed to admit my inferiority."

Although this was his first time in Beijing, he had heard about Qin Yu's strength in the past few years... but he never expected him to be so monstrous.

He glanced down at the folding fan in his hand, surprised to find it broken. He had carried this fan with him for seven or eight years, but he never expected it to be like this…

Qin Yu glanced down at the tattered folding fan in his hand, her eyes filled with disdain.

"Chunfeng, go and get the peacock folding fan from Suiyuxuan."

"Yes"

"What does the princess mean by this?"

"I broke your folding fan earlier because I didn't control my strength. I just want to compensate Your Highness with a new fan."

Qin Yu spoke calmly, but anyone with eyes could understand the meaning behind her words.

It's simply that Cheng Qixia's abilities are lacking.

Cheng Qixia couldn't help but turn his gaze to the young bodyguard beside Qin Yu. Rumor had it that this young bodyguard had defeated Qin Yu, and he couldn't imagine just how skilled this person was.

On the other side, high-ranking officials in the imperial court gathered together.

"Minister, have you heard the rumors circulating outside?"

Upon hearing the Prime Minister's words, the Minister was somewhat puzzled.

"What does Your Excellency mean?"

The surrounding officials were completely baffled.

"The princess presented the glass and jade bracelet to Mo Yun."

Upon hearing this, the official who was drinking water choked and coughed several times.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Isn't Mo Yun just a lowly bodyguard? How could the princess give Mo Yun a glass and jade bracelet that the Prince had given her? Aren't you afraid of offending the Prince?"

But this is not the most crucial point; rather, it demonstrates how much Qin Yu cares about Mo Yun.

For a moment, everyone fell silent, as if you could hear a pin drop.

After a long silence, the Minister spoke slowly.

"If that's really the case, it will be extremely difficult for us to win over this bodyguard."

Previously, if Qin Yu had designs on Qin Yanling, they could have tried to win her over, but now…

After all, they all knew there was a rule in the Dark Guard Hall.

"The secret guards pledge allegiance to their master; in life, they belong to their master; in death, they belong to their master's soul!"

If this rule is broken, the secret guards will face utter destruction...

"This rule..."

They all fell into deep thought.

"The princess is powerful and cruel by nature, wielding considerable power. If she cannot be controlled, the consequences will be unimaginable..."

Qin Yu sneezed. Why did it feel like someone was talking about her? Could it be those old fogies in the imperial court?

"Princess, I'll go find you a cloak."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Chunfeng came out with a peacock folding fan and respectfully handed it to Qin Yu.

"Consider this peacock folding fan as compensation for the damage I caused to your fan."
