Zhao Ce was amazed by Xu Fengnian's interrogation and Yu Youwei's smooth answers.
"These two people add up to a hundred schemes. They're not easy to deal with.”
Whether it was Xu Fengnian or Yu Youwei, Zhao Ce understood why they would do this.
Xu Xiao, this Ren Tu, had committed too many killings back then, causing him to make too many enemies.
Many people wanted to take revenge on the Xu family.
Xu Fengnian had encountered many assassination attempts. Although he was always unharmed, it did not stop him from developing a cautious personality.
As the saying goes, caution is the key to success.
Xu Fengnian would probe and even investigate everyone he came into contact with to find out their background.
In layman's terms, Xu Fengnian seemed to have an occupational disease. Everything was routine.
As for Yu Youwei, she wanted to take revenge on Xu Xiao because he had caused her country to be destroyed. However, because she could not do anything to Xu Xiao, she could only change the target of her revenge to Xu Fengnian.
"Putting aside the fact that Xu Fengnian himself is a highly skilled martial artist, the guards around him are all top-notch martial artists. It's almost impossible for others to assassinate him.”
Zhao Ce's perception was very sharp.
From the moment he walked out of the Imperial Residence, he had noticed that there was a martial artist whose martial arts was superior to his, and he had been following Xu Fengnian secretly.
At this moment, the other party was near the private room.
Not to mention Yu Youwei, who didn't even know much about martial arts, even a grandmaster wouldn't be able to assassinate Xu Fengnian.
"Xu Fengnian is so cautious. Yu Youwei won't be able to kill him no matter what.”
" If there are no variables, Yu Youwei will definitely be exposed. She'll either die or be imprisoned by Xu Fengnian.”
"No matter what, she won't be able to take revenge. In the end, she'll only end up in a lackluster state.”
Zhao Ce sighed in his heart, It's a pity that such a beautiful woman in her prime is trapped by the hatred of her country and family.”
Neither Xu Fengnian nor Yu Youwei knew what Zhao Ce was thinking.
Since Yu Youwei didn't reveal anything, Xu Fengnian didn't suspect anything and returned to his normal conversation.
"Miss Yu, do you have any other talents besides sword dancing?”Xu Fengnian asked.
Yu Youwei was indeed a young lady from a wealthy family. She was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She replied,"I can also play the zither."
"Then can I ask Miss Yu to play a song?" Zhao Ce asked.”
Yu Youwei didn't refuse and agreed,""Yes, but Jean is down there, so I need to go down.”
"No problem, go play!" Zhao Ce said.”
"Alright."
Yu Youwei replied and left the private room.
Yu Youwei found Er Yuehong and told her that Zhao Ce and the others wanted to hear her play the zither.
"Since it's the orders of those two masters, I'll naturally do as they say.”
"I'll immediately get someone to prepare for you to perform on stage.”
Er Yue Hong did not hesitate and ordered the girls dancing on the stage to leave.
Then, amidst the doubts and noise of the guests, she asked someone to move a xylophone onto the stage.
“?? You Wei, don't be nervous. Just perform well.”
After Er Yue Hong gave her instructions, she waved her hand and gestured for Yu Youwei to go up the stage.
Yu Youwei had never experienced such a public performance before, so she was still a little nervous.
After taking a deep breath, she slowly walked onto the stage.
As Yu Youwei stepped onto the stage, the noisy hall quieted down.
The guests who came to the school were all men.
At this moment, all the male customers were deeply attracted by Yu Youwei.
Each and every one of them looked as if they had lost their souls. Their eyes were wide open, and they looked like drooling pigs.
It was only when Yu Youwei sat down in front of the xylophone and plucked the strings with her hands that everyone regained their senses.
"Damn it, is this a fairy that suddenly appeared? The woman on stage is so beautiful!"
"When did such a stunning beauty appear in the Headmaster's Square?”
"This young woman is really a top-grade beauty. Whether it's her appearance or her figure, she's perfect!”
"I have never seen such a beautiful woman!”
"This girl is young, but her development is too good. Her magnificent momentum is simply breathtaking!”
The hall fell into a clamor again.
All the customers praised Yu Youwei.
On the stage.
Yu Youwei lowered her head and focused her gaze on the xylophone.
Although she was in a noisy environment at the moment, she had entered a very quiet state.
Yu Youwei slowly extended her fair hands and placed them on the zither strings.
Then, she skillfully fiddled with it.
As the melodious sound of the zither rang out, everyone consciously shut their mouths and entered a state of enjoyment and intoxication.
In a private room on the second floor.
Zhao Ce and Xu Fengnian looked down at Yu Youwei, who was playing the piano seriously on the stage.
"I didn't expect Yu Youwei to be so good at sword dancing and zither playing," Xu Fengnian praised.”
"She is indeed a very talented woman." Zhao Ce echoed.”
" She's very beautiful and talented," Xu Fengnian said." Yu Youwei should be able to become the Courtesan Belle of the Education Bureau."”
Zhao Ce nodded in agreement.”
Xu Fengnian sighed with emotion,"If it wasn't for the fact that I can't casually bring women from outside back to the Imperial Residence, I'd want to take this place."? Take Yu Youwei as a maid."
"You already have more than ten maids, so you shouldn't be lacking one, right?" Zhao Ce said.”
Xu Fengnian seemed to have suddenly thought of something when he mentioned the servant girl.
He turned his head to look at Zhao Ce and said with a smile,""Brother-in-law, can you return the sweet potato and the green bird to me?”
Zhao Ce was stunned at first, then he said,""What do you mean?"
" It's just that I regret letting Sweet Potato and Green Bird leave the Northern Liang Mansion," Xu Fengnian said." I want them to come back."”
Zhao Ce did not want the sweet potato and the green bird to leave him.
"Feng Nian, you have so many maids, you don't lack green birds and sweet potatoes.”
"I only have two maids, Sweet Potato and Green Bird. If you want to go back, then I won't have any maids.”
"Moreover, although I've only been with Sweet Potato and Green Bird for a few months, I already have a deep relationship with them. I can't bear to let the two of them leave.”
Although Zhao Ce didn't say it explicitly, his meaning was clear.
Xu Fengnian knew that Zhao Ce had rejected him politely.
Although Xu Fengnian was a little disappointed, he didn't have any other emotions.
Because he had always wanted to get the sweet potato and green bird back from Zhao Ce, but if he didn't, then forget it.
Xu Fengnian didn't hesitate and immediately said,""Alright, since brother-in-law has few maids, then I won't ask brother-in-law for the sweet potato and green bird.”
"Thank you, Feng Nian." Zhao Ce said politely.”
"Brother-in-law is too polite."
Xu Fengnian waved his hand and changed the topic."Brother-in-law, you said that you don't have many maids. Why don't you take Yu Youwei as your maid?”
