Today is another ordinary day for Xiuying, accompanied by Xiao Hua and Xue'er they arrived near the slums to provide necessities and food to the people residing there.
"Old man how's Qi Fan?" Xiuying asked after viewing the reports.
"Qi Fan is currently not allowed to go outside her courtyard she has been agitated that it affected her pregnancy. There's also an incident that someone brought her medication for abortion despite Long Guanting's clarification that it wasn't him who instructed it, Qi Fan is still thinking that his husband is abandoning her and their child."
"Hmm who was the one behind it then?" Xiuying elegantly sip from her tea cup, she looks like a deity who grace the mortals by her visit. Thankfully the people around her are already somewhat used to her beauty otherwise they would just stare at her all day.
"*cough It was Long Yue, Long Guanting's younger sister. She is known to be mild tempered but based on our observation she is a cunning person."
"Don't let her succeed a life is still a life after all." After saying her last instruction Xiuying left together with two maidservants.
Upon arriving in Ying Yue, she immediately notice a man standing near the stairs going to her office although his face is unfamiliar the gaze he is giving her is like the one she is used to in her previous life. She suddenly felt uncomfortable as those stares seems to observe her like a test subject. Xiuying was about to ask for the man's identify but the latter started to walked away when a server approached and guide him to one of the private rooms.
Maybe I am just being paranoid it is impossible for that person to be here after all. Xiuying inwardly sigh in relief, sensing the slight change in her master's mood Xue'er look at her before asking if she is feeling tired to which Xiuying just nodded before going inside her office. Xue didn't ask further and started to prepare the tea while Xiao Hua went outside to get snacks from the kitchen.
Qi Ming arrived at Xiuying's office after an hour slightly cursing Jun Wang for being paranoid.
"Brother what are you doing here? I thought you will leave with Jun Wang to go South?"
"I was until I was dismissed by him to guard you, he said that he is somewhat nervous of you not having someone to protect you. He would definitely like to be that person but His Majesty personally assigned the job to him so he can't." He sat and took one of the snacks prepared by Xiao Hua while the latter serve him tea before going to back to her embroidering Xiuying's silk handkerchiefs.
"But I have already have remember grandpa and father both assigned shadow guards to me and I know that he also instructed One to protect me."
"Well he needed One for an important task so he asked me to replace him. *Sigh say Ying'er do I look like a shadow guard instead of a vice general?"
"If you are then you are the most handsome shadow guard that I ever had brother!"
"At least you know that hmp! That One should finished whatever Xianyao asked him to do so I can join the operation in South or else I would rot in here!"
"You don't want to protect me? Your most beloved sister?!"
"It isn't like that Ying'er I love to and will always will protect you at all cost but you know this brother of yours is too charming to be here in the city."
