Suddenly, Fan Yuru remembered what her mother had told her.

However, after this incident, they would probably be discouraged from choosing her as the prince consort.

“Brother Tang, is there no one else in the Mobei Kingdom? Why did they come to Daling Dynasty to choose a consort?”

Tang Jinghong said, “The King of the Mobei Kingdom has been having health problems in recent years. The internal strife in the imperial court is very strong. They came to Daling Dynasty to choose a consort naturally to obtain Daling Dynasty’s support.”

Fan Yuru nodded, “I see.”

Rong Shiyu said worriedly, “Will they hold a grudge against Yuru for standing out this time and secretly playing tricks on her?”

“At this point, we’ll just have to deal with whatever comes our way,” Fan Yuru believed the other party wouldn’t have any ulterior motives towards her and wasn’t worried.

“It seems that’s all we can do.”

On the street.

Bei Chunyi’s eyes darkened, and his entire body emitted a cold aura. “Who was that woman just now?”

The guard who hadn’t spoken up before stepped forward respectfully and said, “She is General Fan’s second daughter, Fan Yuru.”

“General Fan’s daughter?”

The two of them thought in their hearts. If they could marry Fan Yuru back to the Mobei Kingdom, they would be able to obtain the support of the army. They would no longer be at a disadvantage.

Bei Chunlu said, “Currently, the only available Daling princess for marriage is Li Changle. The Daling Emperor might not agree to our proposal, but the daughters of Daling’s ministers are different…”

Bei Chunyi nodded in agreement. “Let’s plan carefully and aim to win over Fan Yuru.”

Bei Chunlu smiled. “Yes, Second Brother.”

The night was dark, with starlight twinkling in the sky.

In the Liu residence.

The servant girl carefully walked into the room and whispered, “Madam, Master has retired to Second Concubine’s room.”

Jiao Qinqin suddenly felt irritated. She threw the rouge box in her hand onto the dressing table, shattering it. Lately, Liu Wenzhao hadn’t visited her room for two days.

“This vixen!”

The servant girl silently took a step back and probed, “Madam, there’s one more thing.”

Jiao Qinqin frowned and said impatiently, “What is it?”

The servant girl whispered, “This afternoon, I saw Young Master Ning bring his fiancee to the capital.”

“Fiancee?!”

At first, Jiao Qinqin never expected Ning Yuting to return. After Ning Yuting’s accident, a sixth rank official from the imperial court (a relatively low-ranking official) proposed marriage to her. She didn’t hesitate to choose the lower-ranked official over marrying a merchant.

The servant girl said, “That’s right. Young Master Ning’s fiancee is a village girl. Back then, when Young Master Ning was in trouble, it was their family who saved Young Master Ning. Now, Young Master Ning probably married that girl to repay their kindness.”

This news eased Jiao Qinqin’s mood somewhat. She said, “It must be to repay the debt; otherwise, with Yuting’s background, how could he possibly marry a village girl?” She paused and asked, “Where is that family staying right now?” The servant girl said, “They didn’t stay in an inn. They stayed in the Chu residence.”

Jiao Qinqin raised her voice slightly. “Chu residence? Which Chu residence?”

The servant girl said hesitantly, “It seems like they bought their own mansion.” “They bought it themselves?” Jiao Qinqin couldn’t believe it, “How can a farmer afford a mansion in the capital? It must be Yuting who bought it for them.” Jealousy welled up inside her. The things that belonged to Ning Yuting’s family were originally supposed to be hers, but now they had been taken away by a countryside girl.

The servant girl wasn’t sure, so she echoed, “It should be Young Master Ning who bought it.”

Jiao Qinqin said angrily, “Do you know where the Chu Residence is?”

The servant girl replied, “1 know.”

“Let’s go meet them tomorrow.”

In the Chu Residence.

Wu Yaqing sat in the courtyard, propping up her chin with one hand, gazing at the full moon in the sky, lost in thought.

Chu Qingzhi walked over and sat opposite her, saying, “I’ve never seen you so preoccupied. What’s wrong?”

Wu Yaqing shifted her gaze away from the moon and looked at Chu Qingzhi with a serious expression. “Qingzhi, I’ll tell you something incredibly unbelievable.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled, “What’s going on?”

Wu Yaqing pointed to her own head, her voice filled with disbelief, “Ever since I entered the capital, I keep seeing the image of Third Master Lu in my mind. Could it be that Third Master Lu has cast a spell on me?”

Chu Qingzhi didn’t know how to respond.

She asked, “Don’t you dislike him?”

Wu Yaqing sat up straight, speaking hurriedly, “Yes, 1 really can’t stand him, but I have absolutely no control over myself. It’s so distressing.” She furrowed her brows in frustration.

Chu Qingzhi glanced at the bright full moon in the sky and asked, “Do you want to see him?”

Wu Yaqing hesitated for a moment and denied it, “No.”

“You don’t mean what you say.”

“Qingzhi, don’t expose me like that.”

“It’s not about exposing you; it’s about encouraging you. If you want to see him, go ahead. Third Master Lu is a good person.” To be able to be Tang Jinghong’s brother, his character was definitely not bad.

Wu Yaqing pouted, laid her head on the table, and let out a deep sigh, wearing a troubled expression. “Qingzhi, why would I go see him? He hasn’t come to see me.”

Chu Qingzhi cautiously asked, “So… you’re waiting for him to come to you?”

Wu Yaqing shook her head, “I’m feeling really confused right now, and 1 don’t know what to do. Qingzhi, I want to calm down and think things through.” “Well, take your time to think.” Chu Qingzhi didn’t press the matter further.

General’s mansion.

When Tang Jinghong returned to his residence, he received a letter. “General, it’s a letter from Third Master Lu.”

Tang Jinghong took the letter, opened it, and his expression slightly darkened.

Then, he grabbed his sword and swiftly left.

He moved at high speed, arriving at the outskirts of the city in no time. As he entered a forest, a strong scent of blood reached his nose, carried by the night breeze.

His heart tightened, and he pulled out a cloth from his attire, covering his face, before cautiously approaching the source.

In the center of the forest, a group of people was engaged in a fierce battle. The trees, ground, and grass were ail stained with blood. The moonlight reflected off their swords and made them appear even more cold and sharp.

As Tang Jinghong got closer to the battlefield, he observed the situation carefully and then flew toward Third Master Lu.

Third Master Lu had bloodstains on his body and looked somewhat excited when he saw Tang Jinghong. “You’ve come?”

“Yes.” Tang Jinghong drew his sword to block an attack from the enemy, but unexpectedly, the enemy’s sword broke into two pieces upon contact. Then, he was killed by Tang Jinghong instantly.

Third Master Lu was speechless.

“A divine weapon?”

This was the improved weapon that Qingzhi had given him. It was so powerful that he didn’t use it casually. Calling it a divine weapon wasn’t an exaggeration.

Tang Jinghong kicked one of the enemies away and replied, “Yes.”

Third Master Lu chuckled, “Thanks for coming to help. I’ll treat you to a late-night snack later.”

“Let’s focus on getting out of here alive first.”

“Sure.”

The battle didn’t end until the enemy’s entire army was wiped out. The area they fought in seemed to have been splashed with fresh blood, and it was dyed red, as if the moonlight shining down had turned red as well..
