"Han Yunxi, stop!"
"I'm warning you, if you don't let go, you'll have to bear the consequences!"
"Han Yunxi, do you hear me? Stop!"
… …
Chu Qingge was still wasting her breath on Han Yunxi even after she'd offended her?
Han Yunxi's lips quirked up into a wicked smile as she leisurely tugged at her sash. Soon enough, the ribbon was completely undone with a flick of the bow, revealing her white undergarments.
"Ahhh!"
Chu Qingge immediately shrieked. The Chu Clan's upbringing was conservative, so how could a proud girl like her stand such a thing? Soon enough, her eyes were wet with tears.
Han Yunxi was truly wicked. Seeing the girl on the verge of tears, she smiled even more innocently and pretended to keep going.
Now Chu Qingge was truly afraid. She quickly begged, "Han Yunxi, I'm begging you! I'm begging you to let me go! "
"Han Yunxi, I was wrong about the poison grounds. Just let me go."
Chu Qingge was scared to death. She was so scared that she dropped all her pride and admitted defeat to Han Yunxi.
After all, this was Tianning's capital city. She and Duanmu Baiye were here as representatives of Western Zhou to celebrate the birthday. If she really took off her robes and things got out of hand, she'd lose both face for the Chu Clan and Western Zhou!
She'd be finished for the rest of her life, too!
The cold beauty was already begging for mercy, so how could Han Yunxi have the nerve to keep going?
She smiled and personally tied Chu Qingge's robes before patting her. "What's there to be nervous about? I was just joking. Did Eldest Miss Chu take it seriously? Do I look like such a despicable person? "
All right, Han Yunxi wasn't such a saint. She simply had her misgivings.
After all, Chu Qingge had come to Tianning as an external envoy. If she made a big fuss, wouldn't Emperor Tianhui use her as a pigtail? She hadn't even dealt with the matters of Western Mountain yet, so she couldn't leave her pigtail for others to catch.
Moreover, her bet with Chu Qingge was related to the matter of the poison grounds. If she angered this woman enough to expose the matter, wouldn't she offend Medical City again?
Han Yunxi was not a person who would act on impulse. She knew her limits.
Moreover, there was still Mu Ling 'er on the side. That girl wasn't to be trifled with. If she was given a chance, she might even torture Chu Qingge to death.
Chu Qingge was still panicking, her face ashen. When she saw that Han Yunxi had really stopped, her heart finally settled back into her chest.
How could she be willing to accept this?
Proud people hated people who stepped on their pride the most. If it was said that she was jealous of Han Yunxi before, then now it had been upgraded to resentment!
She didn't dare to show it on the spot, but she secretly swore that if she didn't get her revenge, her surname wouldn't be Chu!
Mu Linger's heart was trembling with fear as she watched. She was completely engrossed in the fight, but when she saw that Han Yunxi wasn't doing anything, she lost all interest. If I could move right now, I'd slap Chu Qingge a few times.
"Child, come here," Han Yunxi gently beckoned to the little beggar girl on the side.
The little beggar girl immediately ran over and looked at Han Yunxi, her large eyes shining with gratitude.
Mu Ling 'er's face grew heavy at the sight. She was the one fighting for the little beggar girl's sake, while Han Yunxi was only seizing the chance to get revenge!
Han Yunxi handed a pill to the little beggar girl with a smile. "Although they've been poisoned with different poisons, this pill can treat all of them. There's only one, so you can decide who you want to give it to."
Han Yunxi's words made Chu Qingge's eyes widen. "Han Yunxi, you!"
The little beggar girl would definitely save Mu Ling 'er! Wouldn't Mu Ling 'er tear her apart in the next hour?
Mu Ling 'er was very surprised. She looked straight at Han Yunxi, just as Han Yunxi looked back. The two of them stared at each other for a while before averting their eyes.
Han Yunxi rubbed the little beggar girl's head and teased, "I'm leaving. You don't have to give the antidote to anyone, either."
This was just a joke. How could that be possible? The little girl wasn't an idiot.
Seeing Han Yunxi descend the stairs, Chu Qingge cried out, "Han Yunxi, come back! You can't be like this! Come back!"
The little beggar girl immediately moved a stool to stand by Mu Ling 'er's side and fed Mu Ling' er the antidote. "Big sis, thank you. My name is Su Xiaoyu."
That was all she said. She didn't care whether Mu Ling 'er would keep asking Chu Qingge to apologize or not, but jumped off the stool to chase after Han Yunxi.
Now only Mu Ling 'er and Chu Qingge were left on the second floor. Mu Ling' er's body was recovering, so it wouldn't be long before she could move again.
Seeing Mu Ling 'er walk in front of her, Chu Qingge's heart pounded. "What are you planning to do?"
Mu Ling 'er was a person who drew a clear line between her likes and dislikes. If she liked someone, she'd have no limits. If she didn't like someone, she'd be resolute.
"What do you think I'm planning to do?" she asked seriously.
"I'm warning you, if you dare …"
Before Chu Qingge could finish, Mu Ling 'er slapped her across the face with a resounding slap!
Just like the slap Chu Qingge had left on Su Xiaoyu's face, five blood-red fingerprints were clearly visible. It was a ghastly sight.
"You don't have to apologize now. Aren't you happy?" Rather than make her apologize, she might as well slap her back!
Chu Qingge only felt the side of her face burning as if it was about to burst into flames. But this was nothing compared to the fire burning in her heart, which had long been ignited.
"Damned girl, tell me your name if you have the guts!" she raged.
"Medicine City's Mu Clan, Mu Ling 'er! What do you think? "Mu Ling 'er replied immediately. She didn't change her surname or name. She was open and aboveboard!
"You!" Chu Qingge was surprised. She never expected the woman to be Medicine City's genius pharmacist. But so what if she was from the Mu Clan?
"Mu Ling 'er, you better kill me with one blow. Otherwise, I'll make sure you die a horrible death!" Chu Qingge warned coldly. This was the first time in her life that a woman had hit her, much less in the face.
"Do you think I don't dare?" Mu Ling 'er retorted loudly.
Han Yunxi didn't act on impulse, but this girl was absolutely impulsive. She couldn't hold back her words or hold back her anger.
Without a word, she viciously yanked at Chu Qingge's belt.
"Mu Ling 'er, stop it! Stop it!"
"Did you hear me? Stop it! Are you tired of living? "
… …
Mu Ling 'er allowed Chu Qingge to scream and scream as she turned a deaf ear. She used both hands to rip off Chu Qingge's outer robes.
"Ahhhh … ahhhhh!"
Chu Qingge had lost her mind. She screamed and screamed, too scared to even beg for mercy. But Mu Ling 'er would probably ignore her anyway.
Soon enough, she took off Chu Qingge's robes as well. "You dared to use an aphrodisiac on me? I'll let you know what it means to be tired of living!"
"Save me … sobsob … save me …"
Finally, Chu Qingge was scared to tears. She stood there in her undergarments, unable to move.
But Mu Ling 'er didn't stop there. Instead, she grabbed Chu Qingge's belt.
Han Yunxi might have misgivings, but she didn't!
If Han Yunxi wouldn't do it, then she'd do it!
"No …" Chu Qingge was already on the verge of collapse.
But it was at this moment that a figure suddenly flashed by and snatched Chu Qingge away.
Mu Ling 'er immediately chased after her, but couldn't see her as soon as she reached the window. She gave a cold snort and said, "Consider yourself lucky!"
Mu Ling 'er stood by the window for awhile before she gradually calmed down. She looked back at the mess in the room before her eyes rested on Han Yunxi's seat.
She knew Han Yunxi had done it on purpose. Fine, she'd admit it … that woman had saved her.
But who was the person who'd saved Chu Qingge? Mu Ling 'er was too lazy to think any further. She was in a great mood today!
Currently, Han Yunxi was being held back by the little beggar named Su Xiaoyu.
Wherever Han Yunxi went, she followed in silence.
"Child, just what will it take for you to leave? Why are you following me? "
It wasn't that Han Yunxi lacked compassion. She'd already given Su Xiaoyu a bag of silver, enough for her to survive in the capital, but she still wouldn't leave.
Su Xiaoyu blinked her large, clear eyes as she pursed her lips. It wasn't that she didn't want to speak, but that she didn't dare.
Han Yunxi sighed and crouched down to ask patiently, "Speak. What do you want to do?"
Only then did Su Xiaoyu speak up timidly. "Big sister, I want … I want to be your servant. Please accept me."
Servant …
Han Yunxi didn't know how to reply. She felt uncomfortable hearing those words.
Although she came from modern times, she didn't believe in equality. She knew that the strong were destined to be superior to the weak.
But she didn't like hearing a child say those words.
"Esteemed wangfei, I don't know who my father is or who my mother is. I've always been alone. I don't need so much silver." Su Xiaoyu returned the bag of silver to Han Yunxi. "Big sister, if you accept me as your servant, you just need to provide me with food and shelter. I'm very diligent."
This little girl was precocious, but she was only seven or eight years old.
Looking at Su Xiaoyu's large, innocent eyes, Han Yunxi's heart ached. She hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Let's go. Come back with me!"
In any case, Leisurely Cloud Pavilion only had one elder, Zhao mama. It wouldn't be bad to have a little girl to accompany her.
Han Yunxi led Su Xiaoyu back to the Duke of Qin's residence. When they arrived at the entrance, Su Xiaoyu stood there in a daze.
"Let's go." Han Yunxi didn't mind the dirt and continued to hold her hand.
"You're esteemed wangfei?" Su Xiaoyu asked timidly.
Han Yunxi smiled. "What, you don't have the guts to be my servant?"
Su Xiaoyu quickly shook her head. "I dare!"
After entering the estate, Han Yunxi first gave Su Xiaoyu to Steward Luo to train for a few days, then told him to send her to Leisurely Cloud Pavilion in a few days.
As soon as she arrived, Chu Xifeng chased after her. "Esteemed wangfei, where did you pick up this beggar?"
Han Yunxi told him about the restaurant, causing Chu Xifeng's mouth to twitch. He didn't say much, but he had to investigate Su Xiaoyu's origins in private.
Anyone who wasn't personally named by His Highness Duke of Qin had to be thoroughly investigated before entering the estate, even if it was a child.
"Where's His Highness? When will he be back?" Han Yunxi asked.
The day after tomorrow was the empress dowager's birthday. Long Fei Ye might have made his stance clear by using Eunuch Xue, but he wouldn't go so far as to not attend, right?
"This subordinate doesn't know," Chu Xifeng really didn't know. He only knew that His Highness came back every night.
Two days later, on the day of the empress dowager's birthday, Han Yunxi waited from noon until nightfall, but Long Fei Ye still hadn't shown up!
The birthday banquet was a banquet, but most of the imperial family had gone to the palace at noon. Long Fei Ye naturally wouldn't show up early, but he couldn't be late either!
As night fell, Han Yunxi sat outside his sleeping quarters, growing more and more worried as she waited. What's wrong with that guy? Did something happen to him?
