Li Defu immediately beamed with joy upon hearing Han Zixuan's response.

Looking around at the large crowd, he smiled and said.

"There are too many people here, which is really inconvenient. Well, our employer happens to be in Mingxi County!"

Knowing that someone could hit the bullseye with three arrows at once, he was very impressed and wanted to meet the Queen and make friends.

Please follow me to the Drunken Immortal Pavilion for another round of drinks.

Ji Xiao cautiously leaned closer to Han Zixuan and whispered, "Zixuan's Drunken Immortal Pavilion has an extraordinary background, we should be careful!"

Han Zixuan nodded to indicate that she understood, and glanced at the people following behind Manager Li.

If they don't go, they probably won't be able to leave this place anyway; it's just a meeting.

There shouldn't be any surprises; the worst outcome would be that Zuixianlou would simply take the bow back!

"Alright, let's meet then!"

The group arrived at Zuixianlou and entered a private room on the third floor. A few rays of light shone through the carved window lattices, casting a warm glow on the sandalwood tables and chairs.

The ink bamboo painting hanging on the wall added a touch of elegance, while a bronze incense burner in the corner emitted wisps of smoke and a delicate fragrance.

Soft brocade cushions were placed on the chair, and exquisite tea and wine sets were neatly arranged on the table.

The private room was quiet yet luxurious, private yet stylish.

Ji Xiao's eyes darted around, scanning the entire private room!

He exclaimed repeatedly, "Wow! This is my first time visiting the third floor of Zuixianlou, it's so refreshing and elegant!"

Touching this and looking at that, I couldn't contain my excitement.

Han Zixuan raised an eyebrow; she had never actually been to such a high-end restaurant in ancient times.

She had seen all sorts of modern, luxurious decor, so she wasn't particularly impressed by this.

Ji Beichen noticed Shen Qingxi's curious expression.

The introduction begins: "This Drunken Immortal Pavilion is a famous restaurant located at the top of Fenglin Peak."

The owner behind the restaurant is very mysterious. The restaurant has three floors: a lobby on the first floor, private rooms on the second floor, and private rooms on the third floor!

But you can't just go in on the third floor.

Even the magistrate of Mingxi County could only stay on the second floor; he never expected to have the honor of accompanying Lady Han to the third floor today!

"Is this restaurant really that grand?" Han Zixuan asked, puzzled.

Ji Xiao nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, this time it's all thanks to Zixuan!"

They were about to continue their conversation when a clear, refreshing voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Hehe, sorry to have kept you all waiting!"

Everyone turned their heads and saw a woman of unparalleled beauty, wearing a gorgeous brocade robe with lifelike auspicious patterns embroidered on it, which shone brightly in the sunlight.

Wearing a golden phoenix crown adorned with eight treasures and pearls, the tassels swayed gently with her movements, making a soft and pleasant sound.

A phoenix-patterned pendant made of mutton-fat white jade hung down from the side of her skirt.

Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes were like autumn waters containing stars, her nose was delicate and straight, and her lips, naturally red without makeup, were slightly upturned.

She exudes nobility, with a graceful yet dignified figure.

Manager Li, who was standing to the side, bowed and introduced the situation.

"This gentleman is the one who won the Nine Phoenix Divine Bow!"

Then he turned to Han Zixuan and said, "Your Majesty, this is our boss!"

One shouldn't hit a smiling face, so they all returned the greeting!

After entering the room, Feng Xiyue began to look Han Zixuan up and down!

Upon closer inspection, Han Zixuan exudes an imposing aura, holding a bow in one hand and leading a man by the other.

He smiled and said, "My name is Feng Xi. May I ask how you gentlemen are addressed?"

After leaving Kyoto, she changed her name, partly for safety and partly to avoid a lot of trouble.

Everyone took their seats, and Han Zixuan looked Feng Xi over carefully. He was dressed in fine clothes and had an extraordinary demeanor.

A jade pendant with phoenix patterns! Behind them followed two female guards carrying swords, watching them warily.

Han Zixuan sensed the blood energy emanating from the two women wielding swords.

These two must have killed people, and they even have phoenix-patterned ornaments that are only for royalty. It seems that Feng Xi is no ordinary person!

"I wonder what business Master Feng has with us?"

Han Zixuan had no intention of exchanging pleasantries and went straight to the point.

Feng Xi smiled with amusement, "Hehe, today I have witnessed the Lady so decisively and skillfully shoot the arrow into the bullseye."

I admire you greatly and wish to befriend you, Your Majesty. I wonder if you would even think of me?

Feng Xi adopted a very humble attitude, sincerely inviting Han Zixuan, who possessed extraordinary abilities, to this place.

"Ahem, Feng Dong's family is very wealthy and powerful. We are just ordinary students, so it's probably difficult for us to become friends with you!"

Feng Xi waved his hand and said, "Ah, my sincerity in making friends has nothing to do with your status!"

"If you two mind, you can simply consider me an ordinary person!"

Han Zixuan and Ji Xiao exchanged a glance; was this some kind of forced friendship?

Ji Xiao said uncertainly, "No, Mr. Feng, someone of your status, would you lack friends?"

Feng Xi smiled and shook his head, saying, "To be honest, I don't really have many friends!"

In Kyoto, a place that devours people without spitting out the bones, where would one find friends? Ji Xiao already felt a slight pang of sympathy.

We're about to slam our fists on the table and become sworn sisters! From now on, I'll be your closest sister!

Where else can you find a friend who is both rich and good-looking?

Han Zixuan wouldn't believe this person's words so easily.

Not wanting to stay here any longer, she grabbed Ji Xiao's arm.

"Master Feng, let's stop beating around the bush!"

Tell me how you can get us to leave?

Feng Xi raised her eyelids and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to be so nervous. I have no ill intentions."

He pointed to the bow in her hand, "This is something I acquired at great expense of both money and manpower."

Now that the Queen has obtained it, this bow is indeed destined for you.

What's said is said, and I won't take it back.

My desire to make friends with you is genuine! Since Your Majesty suspects I have ulterior motives, you may leave as you see fit; I will not stop you.

If one is too forceful, it will inevitably backfire and cause a rift with the group.

"Why not try a strategic retreat?" Han Zixuan quickly stood up, having been waiting for those words.

The action of getting up prompted Shen Qingxi, Ji Xiao, and Ji Beichen to also stand up.

"Now that we've met, we won't disturb Master Feng any longer! Farewell!"

They left without any hesitation, as if afraid of being called back again!

The group strode away, leaving Feng Xi standing there dumbfounded.

Looking at the empty private room, he smiled and said, "Hehe, interesting."

Two guards standing to the side bowed and stepped forward, saying, "Your Highness, would you like us to tie the man up and retrieve the Nine Phoenix Divine Bow?"

Feng Xi raised her hand and said, "No need. That person is very interesting. Anyway, the bow can't be drawn, so why worry?"

"Have someone investigate these people's backgrounds, but remember not to let anyone else find out."

Then one of them clasped his hands in a fist salute and left.

Feng Xi stood by the window, watching the group of people walking away downstairs, a smile she couldn't suppress playing on her lips.

Han Zixuan and Shen Xiao quickly walked towards another street.

Han Zixuan only slowed down her pace when she got further away from Zuixianlou!

Ji Xiao looked at Han Zixuan in confusion, "Zixuan, why are we running so fast?"

Did she really not know that the point of making friends was to be a good idea?

Han Zixuan suddenly stood up and left, startling her so much that she almost couldn't react.

Seeing her brother stand up, she also consciously followed him out of Zuixianlou.

Han Zixuan sighed, glanced at Ji Xiao, and shook her head at Ji Beichen.

"Young Master Ji is very perceptive; he must have noticed it as well. You should inform your sister yourself!"
