The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

During the time at Xiaoyu Village, Yang Qi's life finally returned to normal. He got up early every day to read books and enjoy the scenery, which was very comfortable.

Carefully placing the ancient book on the table, Yang Qi dipped the brush in ink and copied it on a brand new, wordless notebook.

This ancient book is too old, and it will be damaged if you are not careful.

Yang Qi couldn't bear to keep this book in his hands all the time, so he had to keep this ancient book well.

Therefore, Yang Qi had the idea of ​​copying books.

This time when she came to Xiaoyu Manor, Yang Qi brought three people with her, Madam Zhu, Mama He, and Xin Che.

Xinche is the secret guard that the Crown Prince has placed by Yangqi's side since he was a child. Adu and Xiaoqing are unaware of Xinche's identity.

However, after returning to the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still sent someone to inform Xin Che that his identity had been exposed.

Just this morning, Xin Che went into Miss Yang Qi's room alone to explain the facts and express his attitude.

Looking at Xin Che who was standing there in a daze, Yang Qi took a sip of the tea that Xin Che had just brought: "Is there something?" Could it be that His Highness and Peilin had already informed Xin Che that his identity had been exposed?

"Miss, Xin Che is wrong. I am here to admit my identity."

Yang Qi's eyes returned to the book and he quickly wrote down a sentence: "Are you referring to the matter that His Highness arranged for you to come here?"

Xin Che nodded: "Yes, Xin Che was selected to enter the Duke's Mansion, and until the Second Madam brought Xin Che to the young lady, everything was arranged."

Yang Qi looked at the ancient book, and his expression did not change at all: "But in the end, I made the decision to choose you."

After saying that, Yang Qi put down the brush and looked at Xin Che with a serious face, feeling a little uncomfortable.

This should be the first time that Xin Che showed his true appearance as a qualified secret guard in front of him.

"Why don't you tell me about your identity? If there is anything else I can know, I already know it. If it is something I cannot know, I'm afraid you won't tell it." Yang Qi said, leaning back in his chair.

“The names of the secret guards are all given by the master. Since the young lady gave me the name Xin Che, my name is An Che.

I am an orphan and grew up in your Highness's secret guard camp. Later, I took the initiative to choose to become a secret guard.

However, An Che never expected that his first mission was when he was six years old, and it was also his only mission so far. "

"Tell me, how did you learn martial arts and what did you do while you were by my side all these years?" His Highness had placed Xin Che by his side for so many years. Was he spying on him? Or was there something he wanted to know?

"My dear, An Che started practicing martial arts when he was young in the Dark Guard Camp. When he came to my side, he would practice martial arts during his rest time, such as at night or when visiting relatives.

Because he did not have systematic training afterwards, An Che's martial arts skills ranked last among the Dark Guards."

An Che was not a martial arts genius, so he could not draw inferences from one instance. Moreover, everyone in the Dark Guards Camp was an elite, so the martial arts that An Che learned in his spare time could not compare to those Dark Guards who learned to fight every day.

"An Che's only mission as a lady is to protect her safety. Miss, do you still remember Lingshan Temple? Did you go to His Highness's courtyard with His Highness's secret guards?"

Yang Qi's eyes tightened: "You mean, you were the one who dealt with the people behind?"

"Yes, it was not only that team of guards who were about to discover the young lady's existence. I secretly led the rest away. If His Highness's secret guards had not appeared, An Che would definitely escort the young lady to the destination." Xin Che said sincerely with his head lowered.

The days spent in Linhu Courtyard over the years were completely different from the world that An Che had come into contact with in the previous six years.

As the mistress of Linhu Courtyard, Miss Yang Qi's every word and action influences everyone unconsciously.

Yang Qi carefully recalled the details of the scene, and it was indeed true. At first, he thought he was smart and chose a road that was not easily discovered.

"I know about this matter. Your Highness, can you tell you what to do next?"

"His Highness said that from now on I will be the lady's person. You don't need to tell His Highness about anything. I will only recognize the lady as my master."

Listening to Xin Che's words of loyalty, Yang Qi couldn't help but sigh, "Your Highness, Your Highness, you are so magnanimous. You sent out three well-trained secret guards at once."

With this configuration, I’m afraid it’s comparable to Song Hongwen.

"I want to know what you think." Xinche is different from A-du and Xiaoqing. Xinche grew up with me.

Over the years, everyone in the mansion knew that there was a first-class maid like Xin Che in their house. Xin Che's status meant that she had more convenience in the mansion.

"Miss, An Che was an orphan when he was born, without a father or a mother. Over the years, the Dark Guard Camp is An Che's second home, and Linhu Courtyard is An Che's third home.

An Che learned martial arts in the Dark Guard Camp, but it was only when he was with the young lady, Nanny Zhu, and Mama He that he truly learned the principles and rules of how to behave in society.

Miss, An Che is willing to follow you for the rest of your life. I hope you can put aside the past grudges and accept An Che."

After saying that, An Che kowtowed three times on the ground.

Yang Qi smiled and helped Xin Che up: "Since you said so today, I will accept you again. From now on, you, Xin Che, will not only be the first-class maid of Linhu Courtyard, but also my personal guard, responsible for protecting my safety!"

Hearing the young lady's words, Xinche smiled: "Yes, Xinche obeys your command." Young lady, Xinche will protect you with his own life. I wish you all the best and a peaceful life.

After chatting with the young lady, Xinche finally felt relieved.

In the past few days, Yang Qi has been busy copying ancient books, and has put aside what he said a few days ago: "Your Highness, don't worry. Xiao Qi has nothing to do recently and can visit you often."

In fact, when Yang Qi said this, he was just teasing His Highness and livening up the atmosphere.

The East Palace is His Highness’ base camp.

In addition to His Highness's men, the Fifth Prince, Prince Qi, Prince Jing and other prominent figures in the capital have all arranged people to wait nearby.

Yang Qi even suspected that Song Hongwen might have also sent people to keep an eye on the area.

In such a place where many forces are eyeing it covetously, if Yang Qi goes in and out frequently, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of those who have ulterior motives.

It may not be a big deal once or twice, but if it happens too many times, the risk of being discovered increases.

Yang Qi is not stupid. If there is no urgent matter, he will not do such a thing that will bring trouble to himself.

However, this has been hard on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who has been waiting for the meeting every day.

One day, it was late at night. After His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had finished dealing with all his affairs, he could not help rubbing his eyes. He calculated the time and found that he would have to go to court in an hour.

I was not in the capital for a few days and delayed too many things. I had to work overtime to get them done. I don’t know what this girl is busy with recently. She clearly said she would come to see me, but I can’t even see her.
