Not bad, I can use it. Xie Qingrong had thought about it.

The lady bowed slightly, then thanked Xie Qingrong: "I thank young master for saving me, may I know young master's name?"

She lowered her eyes and bowed, then said: "I shall call Leng Tianning."

Leng Tianning's face changed slightly, she now understood that the reason why Xie Qingrong had grabbed her wrist was to test her strength. Leng Tianning did not dare to underestimate Xie Qingrong's abilities, and replied respectfully: "This slave learned some defensive techniques from the martial masters in my hometown when I was young, it can't be considered as a martial arts technique. As for them, they were Feng Ya Pavilion's henchmen, and were usually responsible for training the disobedient girls. I am the number one singer in the Feng Ya Pavilion, I have always sold my skills without my body. But Mother Rong felt that this servant had some beauty, so she wanted this servant to go with the girls and receive the guests. "

With that, Leng Tianning kneeled down, her face a little pale and anxious, "This servant has already pushed Mother Rong away several times, but Mother Rong actually planted a soft spot on this servant's heart, you already know everything that happened afterwards, Miss Xie."

Xie Qingrong supported Leng Tianning, who was kneeling, and let her sit by the side. She gave her a cup of water, signalling her to drink some water slowly.

Xie Qingrong saw that Leng Tianning's expression had calmed down a little, and said: "I do not need you to be an ox or a horse, but, but …."

"But what?" Leng Tianning asked.

Xie Qingrong paused for a moment before continuing, "We can make a deal."

"What deal? Tell me."

"Don't you want to listen to the conditions first?" Xie Qingrong asked.

"Then, what are the Miss Xie's conditions?" Leng Tianning probed.

"I need your absolute loyalty. You worked hard for me for five years, and after five years, I'll give you a new identity so that you can sleep peacefully in your new life. " Xie Qingrong said indifferently after finishing the last mouthful of water in her teacup.

Leng Tianning's eyes opened wide, her face was filled with shock as she looked at Xie Qingrong, as though she did not understand the hidden thoughts in her heart.

When she was young, a flood had struck at her hometown, and her parents had died in that disaster. Only she had followed those refugees into exile in the capital.

In order to survive, he sold himself to the Feng Ya Pavilion and became the muse here. However, she did not want to leave this place at all. Compared to the bustling capital, she preferred the unrestrained lifestyle of the countryside.

Xie Qingrong looked at Leng Tianning's shocked expression and furrowed her brows, asking: "What? "No?"

"No, no, no, this servant only has one thing that I don't understand." Leng Tianning shook her head.

"What is it?"

"What does the Miss Xie need this slave to do for you?" Leng Tianning asked.

"You agreed to this deal?" Xie Qingrong asked.

Leng Tianning didn't know what Xie Qingrong wanted her to do, but she knew that this was the only opportunity she could grasp. Thinking this way, she asked, "Servant Rong, please consider it." I wonder if Miss Xie … "

Xie Qingrong planned for Leng Tianning's words, so she simply agreed: "Alright." Then, she took out a fine jade hairpin and gave it to Leng Tianning, "When you take this hairpin to the General's Estate, there will be someone who will bring you to find me. As for what you need to do for me, you will know when you come. "

Leng Tianning took the hairpin Xie Qingrong had given him, wrapped it up with a handkerchief and put it away.

Xie Qingrong expressionlessly watched Leng Tianning's every move, her profound eyes filled with coldness. "I hope you don't make me wait too long, I still have matters to attend to, you can do as you please."

When Xie Qingrong walked out of the Feng Ya Pavilion, more than half of the peddlers had already left, and more than half the lanterns on both sides of the streets had been extinguished as well.

She was no longer wearing the green clothes she had taken off just now in order to not attract attention. Instead, she had changed into a simpler set of clothes. Within a few breaths, she disappeared from where she stood.

Prince Chen's Mansion's study room.

Xuanyuan Chen was sitting in front of his desk, holding onto a《 National Policy》, carefully reading it.

Beside him stood a white-robed man in brocade robes. He casually twisted the wick of the lamp, and the room became much brighter.

He opened up a set of tasseled fan s and gently shook it. His lips formed an extremely exaggerated smile as he stuck it onto Xuanyuan Chen and said: "I heard that Your Highness has obtained a treasure recently. May I take a look?"

Xuanyuan Chen glanced at Shen Haoxuan and continued flipping through the book in his hand.

Shen Haoxuan fanned Xuanyuan Chen with his fan, looking extremely flattering, "Just let me take a look, just one."

Xuanyuan Chen shook his shoulders, removing Shen Haoxuan who was on his back, he untied the string of the violet-gold whip and threw it to the side, then said: "Take it."

Shen Haoxuan stuffed the fan into his pocket, teleported, and caught the violet-gold whip in his hand.

He untied the rope and opened the violet-gold whip. The handle of the whip was made of gold, and on the tip was a purple gem. He slowly touched the tough body of the whip with his hands. His eyes were shining, and he almost started to drool.

Xuanyuan Chen put down the《 National Policy》 in his hands, picked up the teacup by his side, took a small sip, then looked at Shen Haoxuan with disdain: "Jiangnan's richest man, does he still need that little money?"

Shen Haoxuan kept the violet-gold whip and placed it in his bosom. He shook his head at Xuanyuan Chen and said: "There is only one of these violet-gold whip in the world."

Xuanyuan Chen looked at the violet-gold whip that Shen Haoxuan had secretly hidden in his heart, and the corners of his eyes twitched as he said coldly: "Hand it over."

Shen Haoxuan shook his head as he retreated, but unexpectedly, he bumped into the Butler Meng who was hurriedly rushing in. With a turn of his body, he supported the Butler Meng who was about to collapse.
