The whole family of villains listens to my heart, the Regent Prince treats me dearly.

Zhai Rongyu brought Zhai Muling to Yunshan.

After passing through layers of clouds and mist, an ancient and solemn Taoist temple came into view, with the words "Baopu" (抱朴) on the plaque in the center.

With its green tiles and white walls, the main hall soars into the clouds, while the side halls are arranged in a staggered and orderly manner.

Shuang'er was amazed.

It's exactly the same as the design sketches drawn by the young lady!

The group climbed the winding stone steps, with ancient trees standing quietly on both sides, creating a sense of mystery and tranquility.

Zhai Rongyu led everyone to a side hall.

"Sister, you can stay here in peace." She pointed to the herbs filling the courtyard and said enthusiastically, "I've gathered all the kinds of herbs I could find, so you're sure to have a good time!"

"And these ancient books are all related to medicine."

She pointed inside, where a table was piled high with ancient books.

Zhai Muling looked around the courtyard, brushed her hand over the herbs, and turned to see Zhai Rongyu standing in the sunlight with a smile. She was deeply moved and her eyes instantly filled with tears.

“Rong’er…” Zhai Muling choked out.

She hadn't even been able to do anything for Rong'er, yet she was already being so kind to herself.

"Why are you crying all of a sudden?" Zhai Rongyu stepped forward to wipe her tears.

"nothing……"

"Rong'er, thank you." Zhai Muling said sincerely.

She secretly resolved to treat Rong'er well for the rest of her life.

Even if it costs me everything.

Zhai Rongyu leaned on Zhai Muling's shoulder and said with a smile, "We're sisters, wouldn't it be too formal to talk like this?"

"Okay, I won't say anymore." Zhai Muling pressed her face against hers and gently closed her eyes.

Shuang'er and Zizhu exchanged a glance and smiled gently.

……

The maids and guards arranged by Minister Zhai immediately got busy, some patrolling and others cleaning.

Zhai Rong walked alone outside the courtyard, activated her third eye, and formed hand seals.

A burst of golden light rippled through the air, instantly creating a powerful current that sealed off the entire Taoist temple.

She clapped her hands and flashed a bright smile.

Hehe, now not even a fly can get in!

Just as she was thinking this, she saw a figure flying over from a distance, "Miss Zhai—"

Zhai Rongyu: ...

???

She reached out to examine her palm.

What the hell?!

My barrier has failed??

A lone figure landed in front of her and took out a jade pendant.

【Sigh!】

I almost started to doubt myself!

"Zhiying, what brings you here?" Zhai Rongyu took the jade pendant, puzzled. "Did something happen to your master?"

Zhiying shook her head and, panting, told her about Zhai Sangjie's situation.

When Zhai Rong heard that her elder brother had fallen off a cliff, her knuckles went cold instantly.

She furrowed her brows, released the Boundless Divine Tortoise from her cloth bag, fed it a gold coin, and placed her hand on the tortoise's shell to connect with it telepathically.

The Boundless Divine Turtle dropped three copper coins from its heels.

Zhai Rongyu breathed a sigh of relief after seeing it.

Fortunately, my brother's life is not in immediate danger, but he is embroiled in some lawsuits.

She examined the divination carefully, her eyes suddenly becoming somewhat playful.

[Brother, this divination...]

[It seems there are peach blossoms in bloom!]

Seeing that she didn't speak, Zhiying hurriedly said, "The master has already sent Huaying to Qixia Temple to look for someone. There should be news before sunset."

Zhai Rongyu looked up and smiled at him, "Go and tell Hua Ying not to rush, take your time searching."

The lone figure paused, startled.

Not in a hurry?

"Why doesn't your master come himself?" Zhai Rongyu asked casually.

The figure immediately replied, "A batch of military equipment has been lost from the Imperial Guard camp, and the commander has gone to investigate the matter."

[Banning military camps?]

[Wouldn't this put the blame on the eldest brother?]

So this is what being embroiled in lawsuits means.

Zhai Rongyu's expression instantly turned serious.

She walked into the inner courtyard and said to Zhai Muling, "Sister, I have something to do and need to go down the mountain. Don't wait for me."

Zhai Muling stepped forward and asked worriedly, "Is there any danger?"

Zhai Rongyu shook her head and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm just going to find something."

Zhai Muling nodded, watching Zhai Rongyu take out a talisman, recite an incantation, and then disappear from the spot.

She blinked, paused for a moment, and then went to the pile of herbs to study them.

She was becoming increasingly unsurprised by Rong'er's abilities.

The lone figure remained, disheveled...

Staring blankly at the air, he uttered a sigh: "This Miss Zhai is truly amazing..."

*

Zhai Rongyu used an invisibility talisman and swaggered into the Imperial Guard camp.

Several groups hurried past her.

At first glance, almost everyone looked solemn and felt insecure.

She walked to the armory and saw Jun Ce standing in the center, his handsome face slightly sullen as he listened to the Imperial Guards' explanation.

It was rare to see him so serious, so Zhai Rongyu found it rather novel and couldn't help but move closer, tilting her head to examine him while listening to his voice.

Jun Ce smelled a faint fragrance.

The taste is somewhat familiar.

He looked around in confusion, but found nothing, so he turned back and continued listening to his subordinate's report with a frown.

“Reporting to the Regent!” a member of the Imperial Guard said.

"The guarding of military equipment in the camp has always been strict, and it is inventoried and checked every ten days."

"This morning, during my routine inspection, I discovered that nearly half of the equipment was missing!"

He observed Jun Ce's expression and carefully considered his words before speaking:

"If we want to smuggle it out without anyone noticing, it will probably take quite some time."

"And one of these keys is in the palace; it can only be collected upon presentation of approval on the day of inventory. The other key is with the commander of the Imperial Guards..."

Zhai Rongyu's expression deepened slightly.

This is clearly an attempt to pin the blame on the eldest brother.

Jun Ce was pleasantly surprised to hear the inner voice.

Rong'er is here!

He looked around; the room was still full of men.

He frowned slightly, his expression shifting several times, and said coldly, "You may all leave now."

The imperial guards looked at each other, bewildered, and retreated.

Fei Ying received a look from Jun Ce and followed him out, closing the door behind her.

Zhai Rong raised an eyebrow slightly and removed the invisibility talisman.

Upon seeing her, Jun Ce exclaimed in surprise, "Rong'er, it really is you!"

Is it really me?

【What does this mean? 】

She looked at him with some surprise: "You knew I was here?"

Jun Ce paused, then quickly explained, "I can smell your scent."

You're a real dog...

That nose is so sensitive...

Jun Ce smiled somewhat guiltily, "Why are you here?"

"I've come to help my brother find weapons."

I recall the book mentioning that this case of missing military equipment was related to Marquis Wu'an.

However, no one knows where he hid the weapons after he transported them away.

Marquis of Wu'an?

Jun Ce's eyes instantly turned cold.

It's true what they say, the thief cries "stop thief!"

Zhai Rong walked to the remaining weapons, released the Boundless Divine Turtle, fed it a gold coin as usual, and placed it on a long spear.

The Boundless Divine Turtle sniffed the spear a few times, and then a faintly glowing Bagua array appeared on its shell.

Jun Ce strode closer, staring at the tortoise shell with some surprise.

Zhai Rongyu carefully examined the array diagram, a bright smile blooming on her beautiful face.

"So that's where it was hidden."
