Anyway, his real target is not Huang Youwei.

"Let me think about this."

After all, this is not a trivial matter. If you handle it wrong, you may lose your head. However, General Chen did not say anything definite.

Chen Xi nodded and said, "General, I have already bought the food and wine. If you have decided, you can invite a few like-minded generals to have a drink at your place tonight. I will bring the food and wine to you in a moment!"

After hearing this, General Chen couldn't help but laugh and patted his head again. In the end, he didn't say anything. He just said that he understood and waved goodbye to let him leave.

After Chen Xi returned, he delivered the wine and food to the people, and before leaving, he advised General Chen that this was a rare opportunity.

General Chen nodded to show that he understood, and waved his hand impatiently to drive him away.

After returning, he kept an eye on the movements of General Chen. In the evening, he saw several main generals who stayed behind to guard the border coming over.

Among them is the "outspoken person" Zhao Qi.

When he went to see General Chen again the next day, General Chen told him something.

Go find three beautiful beauties!

Chen Xi immediately agreed happily and went out with two trustworthy people.

Miss Qiu, who was arranged by Mu Bo to live in Xi Que Hutong, was still looking forward to Mu Bo's return. She didn't know that there would be more and more women around Mu Bo in the future, and she would become less and less favored.

Now, besides Miss Qiu, there are also the two beauties that Lord Zhang sent before living in this courtyard.

It is said that three women make a drama. Those two were in the same group. They were jealous that Miss Qiu served Mu Bo first, so they opposed her everywhere.

Although Miss Qiu had the help of the nanny, she still suffered losses when dealing with two people.

For example, today, she wanted to eat grilled lamb chops in the evening, so she asked the nanny to go to the kitchen and have them made. But who knew that they were snatched away by those two beauties in the evening.

In a rage, she ran to their room to argue, but she was no match for the two people opposite her. She was so angry that her eyes turned red and she couldn't speak.

"Don't think that just because you followed the Fifth Prince first, you are the most powerful in this courtyard!"

"That's right. In the eyes of powerful people, first come first served is never important. If you can't capture a man's heart, just wait to be abandoned!"

"Look, she is so young, but she acts like an old lady. She is trying to put us down by pretending to be a big shot. Don't you know that she is not much better than us?"

The two of them sang in unison, making Miss Qiu so angry that she burst into tears.

"You two vixens! What else can you do besides seducing men?"

She was also very angry and started cursing.

But the two people on the opposite side didn't take the scolding seriously at all. They looked at each other and sneered, "It's enough that you can seduce men! It's better than you, who can't even seduce a man!"

The two were not ashamed of it, but proud of it. This level of shamelessness really shocked Miss Qiu.

The nanny was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pointed at the two people and said, "Since ancient times, the one who entered the mansion first has the highest position. Don't you understand this principle?"

One of the beauties laughed so hard after hearing this, "The one who enters the mansion first is the most senior? What kind of joke are you telling? It's already great that our prince can make you his wife. Do you want to be the prince's consort?"

The other person also looked at Miss Qiu with mockery in his eyes and poked her shoulder with his finger.

"Miss Qiu, you don't think that since you gave your body to His Highness, His Highness will have to give you an explanation, right? You have no family background, and you have no money. Although you are somewhat pretty, compared with the noble ladies from the aristocratic families in the capital, who do you think His Highness will choose?"

It's easy to guess that Mu Bo will not choose Miss Qiu. Miss Qiu herself understands this, but she always has a glimmer of fantasy in her heart, thinking that she is different in Mu Bo's heart.

But she had to admit that what the two said were right. Maybe in Mu Bo's heart, she was no different from these two vixens, just passers-by.

Miss Qiu was heartbroken, tears kept flowing down her face. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she rushed forward and grabbed the hair of one of the beauties.

"You are talking nonsense! His Highness is the best to me. You know nothing and you are talking nonsense here. I will tear your mouth to pieces!"

The beauty had her hair pulled and she screamed in pain. When her companions saw that their sister was injured, they immediately rushed over.

The nanny naturally couldn't let her young lady get hurt, so they all started fighting.

When Zhou Yan rushed over, he saw the maids running around in panic, but none of them dared to step forward to pull the few people apart.

"Stop it all!"

Zhou Yan roared and finally calmed the situation down.

After hearing the sound, Miss Qiu immediately let go of the hair in her hand, but a few strands of hair were inevitably still tangled in her hand.

The beauty screamed in anger and rushed forward, scratching Miss Qiu's face. This time she was so fierce and cruel that four wounds appeared on Miss Qiu's face.

"Miss!"

The nanny screamed and quickly pushed the vixen away. When she saw the blood flowing out instantly, she said to herself: It's over!

Zhou Yan did not expect that this woman could be so vicious. After being stunned for a moment, he slapped the woman who hurt others away, and at the same time shouted for his men to call a doctor back.

"Miss Qiu, are you okay?"

Miss Qiu seemed to be frightened. She just stood there blankly while the nanny wiped the blood off her face.

When she came to her senses and saw the blood on the nanny's handkerchief, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

Zhou Yan was quick to hug them and glared at the two beauties who were looking for trouble. "Someone, lock these two up!"

He and Mu Bo have a life-long friendship. Before Mu Bo left, he specifically entrusted the safety of the yard to him, which proved that he trusted him very much.

So he can be said to be the one who has the final say in this courtyard. With just one word, everyone has to behave themselves.

He carried the person back to Miss Qiu's residence and asked the nanny to get a basin of clean water to clean the wound on Miss Qiu's face.

After wiping the blood off her face, the people in the room could see clearly what happened to her face.

There were four scars running from the left cheek to the right chin. The wounds were very clear and it was obvious that they would leave scars.

The nanny cried out of distress and choked up as she said to Zhou Yan, "Guardian Zhou, you have to make a decision for our young lady! The wound on her face is likely to leave a scar, what should we do?"

Zhou Yan also frowned. Just then the doctor came, but after seeing the wound on Miss Qiu's face, he shook his head.

"This lady is bound to have scars on her face, and I don't have any ointment to remove scars."

As the old doctor spoke, he took out a bottle of medicine powder from the medicine box and asked the nanny to sprinkle it on Miss Qiu's wound. He then calmed down and felt Miss Qiu's pulse.

After a while, he sighed, looked at Zhou Yan and said, "Your wife is pregnant, it's just been a month."
