"Wait."

Just as he was about to step onto the last step, he heard a sharp shout coming from behind him.

A satisfied smile blossomed on the corner of his mouth. He then covered his mouth with the handkerchief and yawned. He turned his body slightly to the side and spoke in a lazy and relaxed voice.

"I'm tired. I only have the time to listen to your words. Say it."

She clenched her fists under her sleeves. She was filled with resentment, but there was nothing she could do about it.

After all, this little slut was holding onto the engagement between his and the Sixth Prince!

She took a deep breath and pinched her fingertips. He had to tolerate this little bitch a few more times. Once he was an imperial concubine, he had to properly settle this debt with her.

"All of you, go down!" Yu Qi glanced at the women and maids around her and said in a bad mood.

Currently, only the two 'sisters' were left at the entrance of the courtyard. One of them had resentment written all over her face as she stood by the entrance of the main house.

She clenched her fists even tighter. The feeling of being lower than Qi was getting stronger and stronger. Even looking up at her made Qing Shui feel weak.

Damn it! How could there be such a feeling?

Shifting his gaze away, he tried his best to expel the guilty feelings from his heart, and the corner of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

Fresh eyes fell on Qi Yue. Looking at her troubled expression, she frowned and impatiently asked, "Are you going to talk or not?"

Yu Yu suddenly came back to her senses. She pursed her lips and raised her face to look at Yu Yu. "Tell me your three requests."

"What request?" Yu Yu pretended not to understand and purposely raised his hand to stroke his temples. After thinking for a moment, he pulled out his voice and said, "Oh, I remember now."

Yu Rui was so angry that she almost ran after him, "You!"

"What are you so anxious for?"

Yu Yu rubbed his temples and looked like he was thinking about something. In fact, he already had a plan in mind.

Ever since she came to the Prime Minister's Estate, she had been trying to think of all sorts of ways to concoct poison. Since she still had some time in the future, she had to think of a way to deal with it.

After the last request to go to the Spirit Hidden Temple was rejected by the government, she had been waiting for the day when Qi came to visit.

"I miss mother in my heart. I want to go to the temple to cultivate for a while and pray for mother's blessings, so …"

She didn't say anything more. Now that she had said it, it was less likely that Qi wouldn't be stupid enough to not understand what she meant.

After some thought, Qi Jian understood the meaning behind her words.

"Leave it to me." She agreed without hesitation.

He was only going to the temple. This was not an excessive request. He only needed to explain it to his father. And she would have liked it less. The little bitch had disappeared, and it was best not to come back.

How could she not know about the idea that was more important than Qi?

She smiled meaningfully at Qi, then turned around and walked into the house.

"Slut!" When there was only one person left in the yard, her face fell. She glared at the door and left.

On the other side of the door, she opened the door a crack and watched as Qi walked towards the direction of the court.

As for Qi, she went straight to the government office. As for what she said, it was obvious.

In the afternoon, while she was recuperating in bed, a servant girl came to report that Master had already allowed her to go to the Spirit Hidden Temple for cultivation.

Yu Yu nodded, and a mocking smile appeared on his face. It would be a different story if Yu Yu didn't show up now.

He then ordered the maidservants to pack up their things and to depart as soon as possible.

In the evening.

She rarely visited Zhao Huan Zhi's room. She was the mistress of her family, so it wouldn't be right for her not to tell Zhao Huan Zhi about it.

In the other room, Zhao Huan Zhi had a worried look on her face as she pretended to wave the handkerchief around. "You've been sick since you were young, and now that you're going by yourself, how can I be at ease?"

"Mother, don't worry. I will take good care of myself." Yu Yu's heart sneered, he received the tea that the servant girl had brewed and lowered his head to take a sip.

"Your mother passed away early. If she's still here, she probably won't be willing."

Zhao Yuanzhi felt a burst of unhappiness at the sight, but she could not act magnanimously in front of the maidservants in the room.

Yu Yu couldn't help but frown.

Even though she had yet to investigate the cause of death of the Xie Clan, she also felt that it had something to do with the Zhao Clan.

Having killed the original owner's mother, and still being able to pretend to be friendly with her, Mrs Zhao could be considered to have done a little bit.

"Does Mother really think so?" She coldly stared at Mrs Zhao.

Zhao Yuanzhi's heart quivered when she was being stared at. She smiled uncomfortably and said, "Of course."

"Coughing, he instructed the old woman beside him in a loud voice." "When Eldest Miss goes out, you must prepare well, and get the guards to escort her. You must ensure Eldest Miss's safety on this journey."

As she listened to Mrs Zhao's arrangements, she lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, then thanked Mrs Zhao, "Since it's like this, I've really troubled mother."

Since his purpose of coming here had been accomplished, he didn't want to stay any longer and left.

On the morning of the next day, Chu Feng sat in the carriage that had been prepared in front of the courtyard and headed for the Spirit Hidden Temple.

Perhaps it was because he had rested late last night and had been drowsy on the bumpy carriage. He did not know how long it had been, but he was suddenly awakened by a loud and angry shout. He stood up and realized that the carriage had stopped.

The voice outside the car continued, "The person who bumped into me still wants to leave, call your boss out."

After saying that, she gave the servant girl a meaningful glance. The little girl then took out a money pouch and handed it over.

The man weighed the purse in his hand with a disappointed look on his face. Then, he viciously said, "Just this amount of money to get rid of the beggar?"

He didn't say anything and just frowned at him. It was obvious that he was going to screw this over, so it seemed like he had been around for a long time!

On the busy street, the loud and clear voice of the big man attracted quite a few onlookers. The big man seemed to have regained his courage and raised his voice a bit.

Yu Yu clenched his fists. If there weren't more people, he would have already knocked out these two things in two moves.

"You bumped into an old man and you still want to use money to fool around?" An aunty on the side of the road could not bear to watch any longer. She stood up and pointed at the fresh air.

"That's right, rich people nowadays, tsk tsk …"

"Enough!" Just as everyone was discussing, a sound came from the carriage.

This voice was not loud, but it was extremely pleasing to the ear. There was also a might that no one could refute.
