I went through ancient times with my bestie, and I had three babies.

My name is Li Xingyu. I was very young when my father made me king. Not only that, he also gave each of us ten secret guards, two of whom were women.

We gave them all their names.

I named them the first time I saw them: Black One, Black Two, Black Three, Black Four, Black Five, Black Six, Black Seven, and Black Eight.

Why are there only eight?

Because the other two were girls, I thought that name was too unpleasant, so I gave them other names.

One is called Qingjiu and the other is called Qinghuan.

They are only two years older than me, and each of them is not only more mature than me, but also better at martial arts than me, which makes me, as their master, feel a little embarrassed.

When I was fifteen, I had no intention of working in the court, so I told my eldest brother about it, left the palace early, and opened a self-service hotpot restaurant in the imperial capital.

Because there was communication in advance.

Plus, Nangong Ying also had a stake, so they had no objections.

I am good-looking, and because of my status, many women want to get close to me, but I don't like any of them.

The only thing on my mind all day long is making money.

five years.

I have self-service hotpot restaurants in several countries, all in big cities. I don’t have any in small cities.

During this period, Heiyi and the others were always by my side.

This evening.

After I came out of the shower, I felt a little sleepless so I walked to the yard. I happened to see Qingjiu and the others coming out of the shower. They usually wore black clothes, but now they were suddenly wearing white dresses, which I thought looked pretty good, so I asked them to wear them like that in the future.

Qing Huan said nothing.

Qing Jiu stepped forward and said, "Master, this is inappropriate."

"What's wrong?"

I ask her.

Qing Jiu said calmly, "We are your secret guards. We are supposed to work in the dark. If we dress like that in public, others will say something."

It was her words that made me feel differently about her.

From this day on.

I look at her from time to time.

Qingjiu may have discovered it, and she started to get very close to Heiyi, which made me feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

Not two days.

I couldn't help it, so I called her to my room after taking a shower.

"What are your orders, Master?"

"Come up!"

I patted the bed.

Qing Jiu stood there in a daze.

I said with a cold face: "Why, I am your master, and I can't order you around?"

"Of course I can order you around, but I'm your subordinate, not your woman."

Qing Jiu met my gaze and said.

I stood up, walked in front of her, and held her chin: "Qingjiu, did I tell you that you are very brave."

Qing didn't say anything for a long time.

I took a bite.

Qing Jiu frowned in pain, but she said nothing.

"roll!"

I felt inexplicably irritated and didn't want to see her again.

Qingjiu seemed to be avoiding me afterwards. He would not appear in front of me unless there was something going on throughout the day.

What she did made me even more irritable.

I finally held on and took her.

afterwards.

Qingjiu is still the same as before.

This made me even more upset, so I went to my mother and told her that I wanted to take her as my concubine.

An Wanwan was quite surprised when she heard about this: "Are you sure you want to take Qingjiu as your concubine?"

"Correct!"

I didn't hesitate at all.

An Wanwan did not agree immediately. She asked someone to call Qing Jiu over and said, "Qing Jiu, I want to ask you, are you willing to be the woman of Prince Ning?"

Qing Jiu raised his eyes and asked, "Empress Dowager, do I have a choice?"
