Great Yan City, Jinling, King Rui's manor.

The morning mist permeated the air and a gentle breeze caressed the willow trees, causing people to feel cold. The door of the master bedroom was not closed. A light breeze blew in through the half-closed door. The girl who was sleeping on the bed felt cold. With a turn, the heat disappeared. She became colder and colder. He simply woke up, rushed out of the bed like a bolt of lightning, closed the door and windows tightly, then jumped back onto the bed and pulled up the blanket to cover himself. She slowly warmed up, only without sleep, but the sky was still gray and she didn't want to get up so early, so she hid in her bed and once again admired the letter that she had memorized so well. After he finished reading, he thought for a while and then mumbled to himself, "Sigh, I've been thinking about this for a few days, but I just don't know what to write a reply."

She had been thinking about what to reply to Mu Rong Chen from the moment she received his letter, but after pondering for nearly half a month, she still couldn't think of a single sentence. It wasn't that she didn't know how to reply, but she couldn't understand the ancient style of Mu Rong Chen, and she was afraid that Mu Rong Chen wouldn't be able to understand her.

The sun had already risen, and the morning sun was high in the sky. Without waiting for Xiao Qing Fu to think further, her maid, Xiao Chan, had already been waiting outside the door. She lightly knocked on the door, and said: "Young miss, it's morning, it's time to wake up!"

No one would dare call her if she wanted to sleep lazily. It was a pity that things went against her wishes, and although her mother-in-law wasn't here anymore, her spirit had persisted for a long time. She had to get up every morning at dawn to give some incense to the ancestors of the Mu Clan, as well as to visit the buddhist hall and pray for her mother-in-law. It was said that all this was the old princess's last words. Xiao Qingfu felt that she had been lucky enough to die. This competent mother-in-law had already died, otherwise she would have felt that her life as an imperial concubine was very miserable. It wasn't like this. He could do whatever he wanted, it would just be a little troublesome in the morning.

After Xiao Qing Fu finished all of this, she hurriedly called over Little Chan, saying that she wanted to go out and play. As for Little Chan, even though she said a few words, she still obediently helped Xiao Qingfu pack, taking money and men's clothing.

For example, Mu Cheng. Xiao Qing Fu had just changed her clothes, and just as she stepped out of the room, Mu Cheng was already waiting respectfully outside the door. He lowered his head and said, "Your servant greets Princess!"

Xiao Qing Fu replied without looking back: "En, good morning!" Actually, she did not need to guess to know what Mu Cheng was going to say. After all, he had been doing this for the past ten or so days, so it was useless.

Thus, just as Mu Cheng was about to speak again, Xiao Qing Fu said first, "Alright Mu Cheng, this wangfei knows what you want to say, so you don't have to say it again. As expected of this wangfei, with the protection of you and that Great Hero Ji, I believe there won't be any problems.

After these ten days of training, Mu Cheng had already become a qualified servant. Once Xiao Qing bought her things, he would immediately fork out the money to settle the bill, and very consciously, he would take Xiao Qing Fu's spoils of war.

It had only been two hours since he came out and Mu Cheng's hands were filled with stuff. Even Great Hero Ye, who claimed to have come without a trace, had his hands full.

Ji Wuming secretly shook his head, sighed, and thought: "This Wangfei is really different from the others. Ever since I protected her, I felt that I am normal. Not only can I see people in the sunlight, I can also walk on the streets without worry. Thinking up to here, Ji Wuming couldn't help but smile, and couldn't help but remember that day.

When Xiao Qingfu found out about Ji Wuming's existence, she really wanted him to appear in front of her again. However, she searched the entire palace for fake mountains, backyard, and even the washroom, but she still didn't find any trace of Ji Wuming. Just as she was hesitating, she suddenly thought of how Ji Wuming saved her, so she came to the lakeside. She pretended to stumble forward and when she was about to fall into the lake, Ji Wuming really did appear. Of course, Xiao Qingfeng did not fall into the lake. Let's see where else you can hide! "

Seeing this, Ji Wuming was startled, thinking: "Could it be that the wangfei has deliberately tripped in order to find me and pretended to fall into the lake?" Initially, Ji Wuming thought that his idea was hilarious, but when he looked at Xiao Qingfu again, he understood that everything was real and not just him thinking about it.

"Since you are fine, consort, then I will take my leave first!" With that, Ji Wuming leapt up and disappeared in front of Xiao Qing Fu like a ghost, which annoyed her a lot.

However, Xiao Qingfu was different from the others. No one could stop her from doing what she wanted to do, so after she tried a plan, she ordered someone to lift a long ladder and placed it on the edge of the roof, attempting to climb up. As she looked around, she opened her mouth and shouted, "Hero, if you still don't come out, I will climb to the roof, and if you go down again, I will climb up!" As she spoke, she raised her foot and ignored the cries of the maids and servants.

Upon seeing this, Little Chan was not very worried. She hurried over to Mu Cheng's side, bent over and whispered in his ear: "Princess has hardened her heart to force that person out, for this, Royal Concubine will do anything, if her body is harmed, then us servants will not atone for our sins even if we die!"

"Then what should we do?" Hearing Little Chan's words, Mu Sheng became even more worried.

"Hurry up and call that person out!" Little Chan berated lightly.

Mu Cheng hurriedly shook his head and replied, "No, that won't do. If I let the prince know, I won't be able to take the responsibility." Even though he said that, he was actually very conflicted.

"If something were to happen to the princess, would you be able to bear the responsibility? Aren't you afraid of Prince's scolding? " Little Chan asked.

Mu Cheng thought for a while after hearing this. "I don't care. If I die, I die. I can't care so much anymore. I really lost to this ancestor!" Once he thought it through, he hurriedly gestured to the front with his hands and feet, then shouted: "Protector Ji, you can come out now. I believe that your highness won't blame you." At the same time, Little Chan had already made the others retreat.

Sure enough, before he finished speaking, that black shadow flashed past everyone's eyes. Before Xiao Qing Fu and the rest could regain their senses, he had already walked forward and cupped his fist: "This lowly one, Ji Wu Ming, greets wangfei!"

When Xiao Qing Fu heard this, she was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Hero, you've finally come!" As he spoke, he was about to go up and touch Ji Wuming, but Ji Wuming hurriedly took a few steps back and bowed his head, "Princess, you can't be like this!"

Looking at Ji Wuming's wronged look, he couldn't help but laugh out loud and say: "Come, come, tell me, are you in the dark?"

At this moment, only Ji Wuming and Xiao Qingfu were left in the pavilion. Ji Wuming still answered her questions one by one, and for a moment, she knew Ji Wuming even better than Mu Rong Chen.

"Looks like you've suffered a lot over the years. No wonder your face didn't look too good. It's no wonder that this person would turn pale after staying out in the sun for so long. Your prince, well, these rules are too inhumane." As she lamented on Ji Wuming's hard work, she did not forget to arrange Mu Rong Chen.

"This lowly subordinate thanks wangfei for her concern!" Ji Wuming did not dare to say more.

"You, ah, since your prince has sent you to protect me, it means that you are already mine. From now on, you have to listen to everything I say. Do you understand?" Xiao Qingfu knew that Ji Wuming would not agree, so she walked over to the lake and threatened, "If you say no to this wangfei again, then this wangfei will jump down from here and see how you explain it to your prince. I almost forgot that I don't know how to swim."

Ji Wuming felt helpless and sighed secretly, "What's wrong with you, your highness? Why do you have to find such a woman when you can't bear to think about it? "Oh, misfortune, misfortune!" After pondering for a while, Fang said, "I will obey!"

Xiao Qingfu said, "Yes, that's more like it!"

Looking at Xiao Qing Fu's glowing eyes, Ji Wuming suddenly regretted it a little. He shouldn't have been so hasty, but he suddenly realized that in front of this wangfei who did not follow common sense, he was simply useless.

Indeed, for the next few days, this princess was happy to be able to change her skills from head to toe. Ji Wuming, on the other hand, was stealthily changed; he felt that this was the true joy of being a human being.

Xiao Qing Fu, who had just finished buying a set of clothes, threw her things behind her, but no one accepted it. She quickly turned around and saw Ji Wuming smirking, she was very curious and purposely raised her voice and shouted: "What are you doing?"

Hearing this, Ji Wuming was not embarrassed, he hurriedly took the clothes and bowed: "Please forgive me, Miss!"

"Don't worry. Laughing is my wish for so long, so why would I blame you?" Before she could finish her sentence, she raised her hand and pointed to the front, then said, "There seems to be men's clothing there. I'll pick out a pretty one for you, you, are actually quite suitable for wearing something that isn't black." As soon as she finished speaking, before Ji Wuming and Mu Cheng could react, Xiao Qingfu had already rushed straight to the clothes shop. This caused Ji Wuming, Mu Cheng, and Little Chan to hurriedly chase after him.

As soon as Xiao Qing Fu stepped into the shop, she saw a white dress hanging on the door. Before she could touch it, a young girl rushed over and grabbed the white dress before her, and said: "Innkeeper, I'll buy these clothes!"

Xiao Qingfu interrupted the shopkeeper's politeness and said to the young girl: "Little friend, this outfit seems to be something your sister and I took a look at first. We have to be first come first serve." As he said that, he took the white clothes from the girl's hands. Not caring about the girl's reaction, he walked towards Ji Wuming, took the clothes and gestured, saying: "These clothes suit you well, I'll buy them for you!"

"Young mistress..." Ji Wu Ming felt touched, in this world, other than his mother, there had never been a woman who bought him clothes. Just as he was about to reply, he was interrupted by the girl: "So she is a servant, why is such expensive clothes …" Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a man walking in from outside. "Rou Er, don't be disrespectful!"

"Big Brother Qin …" It turned out that this young girl was the only daughter of Gu Chenjin, the princess of the Dazhuang Kingdom, Gu Ruoyun.
