In the end, the soldiers decided to take the medicine kit to their superiors for a decision.

However, they were all a bit naive. They didn't ask any questions about Ke Zuo or his companions, nor did they even see what they looked like, and just let them go. But if they weren't so naive, they wouldn't have been assigned the thankless task of watching over a group of refugees suffering from the plague.

After entering the city, the group mounted their horses. There were few people on the streets, and urged on by Ke Zuo, they hurried toward the Prince An's residence at a much faster pace than usual.

As they approached the gate, the group dismounted and stopped the gatekeeper who recognized Du Heng and Liu Yao and was about to open the gate. Ke Zuo adjusted his attire.

"Xu Chi, how do I look in this outfit? Does it look good?"

Xu Chi smiled and looked at Ke Zuo with a doting expression, nodding and saying, "Very good, there's not a problem at all."

Upon hearing this, Ke Zuo revealed an expression that said, "You're right."

"I also think there's no problem. Okay, let's go in."

As they entered, Ke Zuo surveyed the surroundings of the Prince An's residence, muttering, "This residence looks so small, and it has no facilities at all. It's so outdated. How can Brother You like living here..."

Xu Chi liked Ke Zuo no matter what he looked like, while Liu Yao wasn't picky about her surroundings. So Du Heng covered his ears the whole way until they reached the entrance of Wutong Courtyard.

After tidying his clothes again, Ke Zuo stepped inside. Unlike the day at the mountain stronghold, when he hadn't even seen anyone yet, he didn't call out to "welcome the emperor." He wanted to give Qin Suiyou a surprise, but he didn't expect that when he quietly sneaked to the outer room and looked through a screen, he was the one who was shocked.

Before they came in, Qin Suiyou was in the bedroom choosing clothes for Beitang Yan.

With only a few days left until the Imperial Concubine's birthday banquet, and the envoys from the Northern Regions having already arrived at the post station in Yejing, the refugees outside had been resettled in distant places. On the day of their arrival, the people in the city were forced to perform the "lively and prosperous" scene of Yejing for a few days, but after a few days, they all went back to their homes and locked their doors.

Since it was about to be Beitang Yan's reappearance in front of the public, and it was thought to have some commemorative significance, Qin Suiyou was choosing a set of gorgeous clothes for him from those that had already been made.

Qin Suiyou had originally set his sights on a set of dark black robes embroidered with dark gold thread, which was understated yet luxurious. Moreover, when Beitang Yan tried it on, it would accentuate an aura of dominance that was unmatched by ordinary people. However, after learning what clothes Qin Suiyou wanted to wear, Beitang Yan, who had no objections at first, refused to wear the set no matter what.

Qin Suiyou decided on a set of elegant dark blue robes that exuded a gentle and refined gentlemanly air. Coincidentally, the same material had been made for Beitang Yan, and Princess An and the embroiderers even designed the same embroidery for the two of them.

After looking back and forth between the two outfits, Beitang Yan pointed to the "couple outfit" he wore with Qin Suiyou and said, "I want to wear that one."

The cyan outfit isn't really a problem, but it doesn't have the same advantage as the black one in terms of creating a certain aura. If it were the old Beitang Yan, he probably wouldn't have been so picky, but his personality has changed a lot now, so he needs some external factors to help him.

Qin Suiyou pondered for a moment and still wanted Beitang Yan to change his mind. However, Beitang Yan insisted on wearing "matching outfits" with his wife and refused to agree. After arguing with Qin Suiyou, he took off his clothes to express his strong insistence.

When Ke Zuo quietly opened the door, Bei Tangyan had just taken off his upper body. Qin Suiyou said helplessly, "Why did you take off your undergarments too?"

As Qin Suiyou was speaking, he prepared to let Beitang Yan put on his clothes, but Beitang Yan raised his hand and brushed past his shoulder to get his own dark blue outfit. At first glance, this action looked like he was about to pin Qin Suiyou against the wall.

Ke Zuo immediately stepped forward and shouted, "Who are you! What are you doing!"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Qin Suiyou looked up.

Seeing that it was Ke Zuo, and realizing what he had just said, he glanced at Beitang Yan, who was not wearing clothes on his upper body, and told him to quickly put on his original clothes before walking to the outer room.

"When did you arrive?"

Just now.

After answering instinctively, Ke Zuo stomped his foot.

"This isn't the time to talk about this. Who was that guy? He was just being a harassing you, aren't you going to do anything about it?"

Qin Suiyou was somewhat surprised. Who was being harassing him? Beitang Yan?

Thinking that it might be that Beitang Yan's bare upper body had caused Ke Zuo to misunderstand, and that the guy was too stubborn to explain anything, he could only let him figure it out on his own.

Therefore, Qin Suiyou said, "I was just looking for clothes for him to wear to the banquet. Who would want to take advantage of me?"

After saying that, Qin Suiyou looked towards the door.

Where is Xu Chi?

"outside."

After thinking about it, there really wasn't anything bad about the atmosphere just now, but Ke Zuo's eyes still looked a little strange as he watched Beitang Yan, who had finished dressing, walk out of the inner room.

Ignoring the stranger in front of him, Beitang Yan walked towards Qin Suiyou, but still asked a perfunctory question: "Wife, who is he?"

Qin Suiyou replied with a slight smile, "My half-brother."

Upon hearing this, Beitang Yan stopped caring and simply stood silently next to Qin Suiyou, without looking for a seat himself.

"What the hell? What did he just call you?"

After Beitang Yan came out and spoke, Ke Zuo was stunned for a long time.

Upon hearing this, Beitang Yan asked, "Wife, is there a problem?"

Seeing Beitang Yan's matter-of-fact expression and Qin Suiyou's silent indulgence, Ke Zuo was dumbfounded, and then shouted outside.

"Xu Chi! Come here right now!"

At this moment, the group of people outside were sitting on the stone bench under the sycamore tree, drinking the herbal tea that Du Ruo had brought. Hearing Ke Zuo's somewhat "tragic" cries, Du Heng slightly raised his head to signal Xu Chi.

"Go quickly, they're calling you."

Xu Chi didn't rush to move, but first asked, "Who else is inside besides the young master?"

Du Heng smiled slightly and then said, "Who else could it be but our 'young mistress'?"

Xu Chi paused, as if he had thought of something, and then asked, "What is the temperament and disposition of this 'young mistress'?"

Du Heng knew immediately what Xu Chi wanted to ask, so he said softly, "Don't worry, they won't fight. But you'd better go in quickly, otherwise Young Master Ke will lose his temper. He won't target you, but he'll come after us."

Xu Chi nodded and got up to go to the bedroom where Qin Suiyou and the others were.

When Ke Zuo saw Xu Chi arrive, he felt as if he had finally found his pillar of support. He pulled Xu Chi to stand beside him and pointed at Bei Tang Yan, saying, "You fight him."

Xu Chi looked at Qin Suiyou with a puzzled expression, then at Beitang Yan, and asked, "Why?"

Ke Zuo let out a "tsk" and said in a crooked tone: "Hurry up and deal with him. He really deserves a beating. Even if he robs my Brother You, he still provokes me..."

In the end, the fight didn't happen. Qin Suiyou watched as Ke Zuo and Xu Chi threw a tantrum, demanding that Qin Suiyou help him deal with Beitang Yan, whom he didn't like. He felt helpless, thinking of the person with the same name in his previous life.

"How can their personalities be so different? It's really strange..."
