After all, Lan Qin's martial arts were above her own. In the Sheng Jia s, he and Qing Qian had some martial arts, but it wasn't very high.

So, today, he had met his match with Lan Qin, but he had brought so many people with him, he shouldn't lose to a silly little girl, right?

"All of you, attack!"

Once he gave the order, the ten maidservants ran up from behind him. Lan Qin was busy cleaning the trash, he never thought that Sheng Yan would be in danger too.

Watching Sheng Yi Qiu approach step by step, Sheng Yan pursed her lips. Looks like I really have to teach this arrogant girl in front of me a lesson today.

After all, with Lan Qin here, she would definitely be able to protect him to his heart's content. But even so, she still had a way to win her heart, at most, she would just run away.

Dressed in white, with long black hair covering half her face, she was a little worried. What if Prince appeared at this time?

But thinking about it, the Xuanyuan Li should not have come here so late.

However, there were some things that he had to be wary of. He believed that since they had met in the day as the Small Five, he would come at night to investigate and find out what happened. He wanted to know if the Small Five really lived here.

Thus, Sheng Yan who had just finished showering lightly drew eyeliner on herself. This way, it would be a little difficult to discern.

"What? You're still counting on your maidservants to save you?"

"Of course not, I can't always count on others."

"Oh? I want to see what abilities you have. "

Sheng Yi Qiu immediately threw a punch towards Sheng Yan after she finished speaking. Of course, Sheng Yan was not stupid, she herself still had a sense of sensitivity, so she directly dodged it.

Even if it was just a response, it was a military fist that he had learnt during his military training. It was simply flowery, and useless, but as long as Sheng Yi Qiu was closer to him, she would be able to use the things in his hands to confuse her.

But Sheng Yi Qiu seemed to be prepared and always started attacking from a distance.

Sheng Yan continuously dodged. Just as she was about to be at a disadvantage, a small stone smashed into her leg, causing her to kneel on the ground in pain.

The group of servants who were beaten up by Lan Qin and were trying to escape quickly surrounded Sheng Yi Qiu.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

"It's fine, who is it? "Who's here?"

After looking around, he did not see anyone, thus, Sheng Yi Qiu suspected that Lan Qin was the one behind the stone, but she did not think that her methods were truly clever.

But today, Sheng Yi Qiu still did not want to stop. She did not expect that the moment she stood up, another few stones would hit him and he caused her to kneel down in pain as she was surrounded by the maidservants.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Sheng Yi Qiu quickly left.

In an instant, only Sheng Yan and Lan Qin were left in the courtyard.

A figure suddenly flashed into Sheng Yan's line of sight, and when she looked again, she saw that Lan Qin seemed to have already been hit by an acupoint, and was unable to move.

"What do you want?"

"Weren't you very stubborn just now? Why did you shrink back when you saw me?"

Sheng Yan knew that this person had ill intentions. Although she had helped him to drive Sheng Yi Qiu away, he had clearly come with an unknown purpose.

With a puff, Sheng Yan blew the thing in her hands towards the Xuanyuan Li in front of him.

"Pfft, what is this?"

"Oh, is there anything that Prince is afraid of? Do you believe me when I say that I poisoned it? "

"You ? I just helped you."

"Really? Who is the person who refused to pay for free during the day?"

The Xuanyuan Li waved her sleeves as she said, "I didn't eat a single bite in the day, you ate it yourself, okay?"

"No matter what, it is already in your name. You can settle this debt yourself."

"You!"

The Xuanyuan Li really underestimated the woman in front of them. It was unexpected that what Small Five said was true, this woman really knew everything, even deceit and swindling.

"Prince should hurry back, there's no need to wait until the poison breaks out, and no one will come to collect your corpse."

"Alright, just you wait."

The Xuanyuan Li hurriedly returned to the palace.

Looking at his retreating back, Sheng Yan couldn't help but laugh. He didn't think that a dignified Prince would actually be so childish. As soon as he started cultivating, he knew that he was fine, the poison he designed was nothing more than to numb his nerves.

After a while, Lan Qin also opened her acupoints.

"Miss, was that Prince just now?"

"Who else could it be other than him? But when he returns, he will encounter even more interesting things."

"What is it?"

Sheng Yan shrugged, "Who knows."

After saying this, the two of them went back to sleep quietly.

Because the courtyard was relatively small, Sheng Yan allowed Lan Qin to live in the room opposite to him. This way, even though they were separated by a middle hall, and she felt that it was safer, the rooms here were actually a typical two bedrooms and a hall. So for the sake of convenience, Sheng Yan allowed Lan Qin to live opposite of him.

When the Xuanyuan Li returned to the Duke Palaces, she only felt her body swaying without any strength left. anemone, who was welcoming her at the door, acted as if he did not see her.

"anemone, what are you doing?"

"Oh, Hongwu, you just came back now, quickly go in. Prince didn't come back, and took the chance to fill up the bath quickly. I'll go and check later.

Then the Xuanyuan Li was pushed through the door by the anemone, almost falling down from exhaustion.

But now, what was even more frightening than the change in his body was that anemone seemed to have treated him as someone else, but when he touched her, there was no change in his appearance at all.

He wanted to hurry back and heal himself, but he soon met his guard, Hong Wu. He didn't expect Hong Wu to want to kiss him the moment he saw him, so he had to press his hand against the man in front of him.

"What are you doing?"

"Mei Xiang, you've been waiting for so long. The Prince will be back soon, let's hurry up and kiss."

"No, scram."

The Xuanyuan Li could not take it anymore, it could only push Hong Wu away and quickly return to its own room. However, when it pushed open the door, it discovered that Mei Xiang was making up its own bed.

"Ya, Hong Wu, why did you come in? Go out quickly, Prince is coming back soon."

Pfft, the Xuanyuan Li wanted to vomit blood, this poison was really strong, he was fine, but the people around would think that he was the person they were thinking of.

But it had to be said that Sheng Yan was truly a strong woman, even without any martial arts, she could make people lose control.

Very quickly, the poison was detoxified. Mei Xiang turned her head and was about to say, Hong Wu, why haven't you left?

"Prince, you, you're back. I'll go get some water to take a bath."

Looking at Mei Xiang's fleeing figure, he knew that the poison had finally been cured.

The amount of poison must be low, or he might not even be able to enter the house.

Lying on the bed, the Xuanyuan Li not only recalled, what other secrets did Sheng Yan have?
