Originally, Feng Jiuqing had no interest in this, but he seemed to have heard somewhere that it was easy to get hurt the first time. After all, Feng Jiuqing was a novice in both of his lives and had never had any experience in this area. Well, although he just wanted to have a romantic time with Yan'er, he couldn't let the experience be too bad, otherwise Yan'er would only remember that he was not good at it, which would be so embarrassing.

"Really? Thank you, Mammy."

Nanny Gui paused and looked back at Feng Jiuqing: "Don't believe it? Forget that you are the leader of Xitai Tower. You really know more about this kind of thing than ordinary people."

That's not really the case. Feng Jiuqing had an awkward but polite smile on his face. You might not believe it, but the main reason why he could become the leader of Xitai Tower was because of his stunningly beautiful face. After all, it was his first time to make a living by his looks, and being too handsome was also a trouble.

Aunt Gui turned around and continued walking forward: "Once you try, you will know that I never lie."

Feng Jiuqing followed Nanny Gui to the inner room of the Qinglian Pool. After the two rows of maids behind them came in, Feng Jiuqing frowned slightly. "Do we need so many people? It shouldn't be necessary, right?"

"Come here, Mr. Ming."

Feng Jiuqing paused for a few seconds and asked softly, "Do they have to be here?"

Aunt Gui glanced at Feng Jiuqing meaningfully and said, "Are you shy?"

Feng Jiuqing lowered his head and smiled, causing all the maids' faces to blush and they all lowered their heads, not daring to look at him again.

Nanny Gui had seen many beauties, but this was the first time she had seen such a stunning beauty. No wonder she was liked by that person. Upon closer inspection, Mingqing's face seemed familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere, but she couldn't quite remember where.

Aunt Gui waved her hand nonchalantly: "If that's the case, everyone leave."

Only after everyone had left did Feng Jiuqing let out a breath and relax.

Nanny Gui smiled and said, "Mr. Ming is surprisingly innocent. Yes, there are actually people like him in Xitai Tower."

Feng Jiuqing seemed a little embarrassed and said softly: "After all, I am a latecomer and cannot compare with the others in the building."

Aunt Gui nodded, took out a box of ointment from behind her and opened it: "This is my unique secret recipe. After using it, your skin will be as soft as water. Since you like me very much, I'm giving it to you. Others here don't have this treatment."

Feng Jiuqing took the ointment, opened it and sniffed it, a hint of darkness flashed in his eyes. This ointment smelled fragrant and could indeed make the skin smoother. The only drawback was that some things that shouldn't have been added were added, so that the originally good ointment became a poison that could kill people. This medicine was similar to the poison in Xitai Tower. Fortunately, Tongzi had tested it before, and Feng Jiuqing had a keen sense of smell, so he remembered the smell of that medicine. Otherwise, it would be difficult to discover this person's trick.

But Nanny Gui was just a housekeeper in the backyard of the palace. Why did she give him this kind of medicine? Was it to control him? But he had already taken the pills from Xitai Tower. Nanny Gui knew that he came from Xitai Tower. It was impossible for her not to know that he had already taken this kind of medicine. Why did she give him the medicine a second time?

There must be something weird about this.

Tongzi hit Feng Jiuqing with his tail, and Feng Jiuqing lowered his head to look at Tongzi's furry face.

The system said proudly, "Of course it's only given to you if there's something strange going on. This ointment contains a few more herbs than the one in Xitai Tower. Anyone who comes into contact with it will be poisoned. No, this ointment seems to have an aphrodisiac effect?"

Feng Jiuqing lowered her eyes and said docilely, "Thank you, Madam."

Aunt Gui was very pleased: "You are a grateful person. Good. You must use this before having sex with that distinguished guest. It can not only maintain your skin, but also make that distinguished guest unable to stop wanting you."

Feng Jiuqing thanked her again, and Aunt Gui nodded: "Well, it's rare to meet someone as suitable as you, so I'll give you a few more words. That distinguished guest is of extraordinary status. If you can get the favor of that distinguished guest, you will become a superior person overnight. Don't forget your roots when the time comes."

Seeing Feng Jiuqing's face full of resignation, Nanny Gui continued, "This is also what the prince meant. After all, Xitai Tower is the prince's property, and you are also backed by the Zhao Palace. Even if you become a noble, you still need a backer to last long. You must remember the good things about the Zhao Palace and speak well of the prince in front of that distinguished guest. Your future will surely be limitless."

Every word seemed to speak for the King of Zhao. Did the King of Zhao really order Nanny Gui to give him this ointment? Nanny Gui also specifically reminded him to use it before having sex, which was obviously aimed at Yan'er. Did the King of Zhao really have the brains and courage to murder the emperor?

This was inconsistent with the information Feng Jiuqing had obtained about King Zhao. Judging from the information Canglang had previously found out, King Zhao was cowardly, timid, and his brain wasn't very good. He didn't seem like someone who could do such a thing.

Now all the evidence points to King Zhao. Feng Jiuqing has two guesses in his mind. Either King Zhao is being used as a gun, or there is someone behind him who he doesn't even know about and has been reaping the benefits, and he, King Zhao, is the best scapegoat for the person behind the scenes.

Another possibility is that the King of Zhao, like him, has been pretending. He appears to be extremely stupid, but in fact he is very cunning. He makes himself the most conspicuous target, and then he can push everything onto another unlucky person who cooperates with him, so that he can get away smoothly. If this is the case, then the King of Zhao will definitely become a big worry for Yan'er.

From the fact that the owner of Xitai Tower had told him that there was someone behind Xitai Tower, to the fact that the servant mentioned that not only Jiangning Mansion but also the capital city could cover up everything, to the fact that Nanny Gui was helping him on the surface but actually poisoning him and Yan'er, Feng Jiuqing could infer that there must be someone behind the scenes in the capital city, and no matter whether it was King Zhao or the person behind the scenes, they were after not only the throne but also Yan'er's throne.

Feng Jiuqing closed the ointment and said, "Mingqing, remember this."

Nanny Gui was very satisfied. When she took out a book and opened it in front of Feng Jiuqing, Feng Jiuqing felt a little hurt by the irritation. It was because the scenes in this book were very bold and difficult to put in the 21st century.

Aunt Gui laughed and said, "Take a good look at this. It's a rare treasure."

After saying that, he took out another box and opened it. Feng Jiuqing recognized the things inside. He had even seen them at Xitai Tower Master's place last night. It can only be said that they are worthy of being the people of King Zhao. Their taste in collecting things is so unique and the same.

Nanny Gui took one out from inside and handed it to Feng Jiuqing, saying, "Try it on."

Feng Jiuqing smiled and shook his head, saying, "It's useless. Madam, you don't know that the distinguished guest doesn't like to work, but prefers to enjoy himself."
