"Madam, please tell me."

"If you don't agree, I won't say."

"…"

Xiao Jingyue's handsome face revealed a helpless look, "This general agrees."

Qu Ling's eyes turned and a cunning look quickly flashed across them as he tiptoed over and whispered into Yun Che's ear.

General Xiao's face revealed a strange expression.

Roughly a quarter of an hour later, the General Xiao, the subject of admiration for the citizens of the Qi Empire, was currently carrying his Mrs. Xiao as they slowly walked down the western street.

Wherever they went, everyone was shocked.

Amidst his astonishment, he hurriedly followed her.

Not long after, a group of people with nothing to do appeared on West Street, following the General Xiao who was carrying the Mrs. Xiao as they strolled.

Xiao Yi silently followed behind Xiao Jingyue, blocking off all the people who were approaching.

He felt that his master was becoming more and more unscrupulous towards his wife.

Since he had made such a trip today, there was no need to wait until tomorrow, before the news would spread throughout the capital that the General Xiao was carrying the Mrs. Xiao on his back and touring West Street.

In a few days, most likely all of the citizens of the Qi Empire would know.

After a few more days, it would be passed down to the Southern Guarding Prince Palace. He simply did not dare to imagine that scene!

Qu Ling didn't think that much as he lay happily on Xiao Jingyue's back, hugging his neck while beaming.

In fact, she was just speaking casually and didn't expect this man to agree. Who knew that he would actually agree?

The moment he picked her up, she lost all her breath.

What replaced it was a sweet feeling that seeped into his heart.

In this cold early winter, all she could feel at this moment was warmth.

Seeing that there were more and more onlookers and Xiao Jingyue was still unmoved, Qu Ling felt that it was a little awkward.

Especially when she saw the strange gazes from the people looking at Xiao Jingyue, she started to regret asking for such an unreasonable request.

She curled her lips, buried her head into the man's neck, and asked in a small voice: "Xiao Jingyue, do you want to let me down?"

General Xiao's complexion was originally not well due to being watched by others. However, when he heard the girl's soft and gentle voice calling his name, his agitated heart gradually calmed down.

He helplessly thought: face is not as important as my wife.

Besides, the person behind him was the woman he liked.

As he thought about this, his lips slowly curved up in a faint smile, "Madam, do you feel sorry for your husband?"

Qu Ling felt sweet at the bottom of his heart, and snorted: "There's the fragrance and Lili's heartache for General."

Hearing the woman's sour words, the man's lips curved up in a deep smile. His pitch-black eyes also revealed hints of a smile.

When the spectators saw General Xiao's smile, they were all stunned.

Most of the women present even had two flushes of red on their cheeks.

They all thought at the same time: General Xiao is so beautiful.

Once again, they all thought at the same time: Jealous and jealous of Mrs. Xiao!

South Wind House on West Street.

The people in the library also heard the commotion, and one or two of them laid on the windowsill to watch from the sidelines.

Not only the servant of the school, but Jin Yi, Jiang Huo, and Ah Xin were also present. Even Murong Yan had come to the window.

Everyone in the library waited in silence for a moment, then they saw a purplish red figure slowly walking over.

Behind him was the boss of South Wind House — Qu Ling.

Seeing this, Ah Xin was so happy that he started dancing: "Brother-in-law's relationship with big sister is really too good."

"You are only twelve years old. Do you know what emotions are?"

The mischievous Jiang Huo used Qu Ling's usual words to rebuke him, and with a pair of shifty eyes, he looked towards Murong Yan.

A gentle smile still hung on Murong Yan's face, his eyes stared unblinkingly at the white dressed lady who lay on the man's back.

The girl in the white dress seemed to have sensed something as she suddenly raised her head and looked in their direction.

Under the dusk, the girl's face was flushed and her eyes were curved in a smile. It was difficult to conceal the smile on her face.

If not for the crowd surrounding them, everyone within the South Wind House would have no doubt that their boss would have waved his hand and shouted for them.

Just as Ah Xin was about to call for help, Jiang Huo who was hiding behind her immediately covered her mouth.

Even Murong Yan had unknowingly turned his body and hid in the shadows.

After the two left, his expression became tranquil and calm, and he spoke to the person beside him: "Ah Ling has married a good man."

Jiang Huo laughed dryly, and did not reply.

His sister was stupid, but he wasn't.

From the many books he had read, he felt that there was a high chance that Big Brother Murong liked his sister.

But unfortunately, her elder sister was already married.

Yes, he even married a good man.

After returning to the General Mansion, Qu Ling immediately jumped down from Xiao Jingyue's back.

Xiao Jingyue adjusted the wrinkles that did not exist on his robes and asked softly: "Has Madam calmed down?"

From the main street next to Minister of War Palace all the way to West Street, then from the west street all the way to the end of the street, all the way until the General Mansion.

Even if they didn't go through the entire capital, they would at least have a quarter of the total.

Before long, this news would spread throughout the capital.

At that time, everyone would know how much the General Xiao dotes on its own wife.

Qu Ling's eyes turned slightly, but he did not say anything.

He turned around and walked two steps in the direction of the Clear Wind Academy. His steps halted as he suddenly said, "That Xiang Xiang and Lily aren't good-looking at all."

The two women who had been flirting with him behind the bawd had now seen their faces clearly.

The rouge on her face was brushed thicker than the powder on the wall. Other than her chest being slightly bigger, there was nothing else to look at.

Xiao Jingyue stopped moving and turned to ask Xiao Yi, "Who are Xiang Xiang and Lily?"

Xiao Yi endured his laughter and did not reply.

Mrs. Xiao who was walking in front heard this and was completely coaxed.

After making such a ruckus just now, it was already getting late, so he didn't go to the Prime Minister Mansion anymore.

Xiao Jingyue sent someone to inform the Prime Minister Jiang and brought him into the study.

Xiao Yi guarded the entrance to the study and did not follow them in.

In the quiet study room, Qu Ling and Xiao Jingyue stood face to face, uncontrollably thinking about what had happened just now. Their small faces couldn't help but turn red.

She quickly thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Do you have any idea what to do with those items?"

Xiao Jingyue looked at her meaningfully for a moment, then took her mother's booklet and passed it to her, "Your mother's notes mentioned some things."

Qu Ci had already gone to look for the Nuwa Stone, and he would need to look for the remaining stones on his own.

The few pieces of paper that Qu Ci gave him before she left clearly stated the characteristics of those things.

At first, he only felt that it was familiar, but later on he remembered that the reason he felt that it was familiar was because he had seen Qu Ling's mother's booklet before.

It was almost exactly the same description. The brochure did not contain the names of the items, but it did indicate where they might appear.

Qu Ling took the booklet, and just as he was about to look through it, the man suddenly held her hand.

Puzzled, she raised her head and heard him say, "Let's eat first."

"Oh." She obediently put the booklet away.

When she withdrew her hand, she suddenly paused and took out something else.

She opened her palm and held out the object to him. Lowering her head, her face flushed red as she faltered for a long time. Then, she whispered, "This is for you."
