be guards left behind after I leave.
Nothing will happen with them around.”

…..

Chen Jin thought about this and said to Yaoyao, “I’ll return to the Palace to inform Master about this immediately.
After that, I’ll return to protect you.”

Yaoyao did not want him rushing back and forth as it would be too tiring, but when she saw how insistent he was, she had no choice but to let him be.
“As you wish.”


Chen Jin knew that Beitang You had arranged for other covert guards to protect Yaoyao, which was why he was less worried.

After escorting Yaoyao and the others to the holiday home, he returned to the capital city.

Yuan Xin was not in a hurry to leave, so she stayed at the holiday home to accompany the young girls for half a day.

It was only by evening that she brought two servants with her and returned to the capital city.

Without any adults supervising them, the three girls got even bolder.


Yuan You said, “Cousin Hexin, I heard there are a lot of pheasants in the mountains behind the holiday home.
How about we hunt some?”

Hexin looked at her in slight surprise.
“When did you learn to hunt?”

Yuan You went blank.
“I don’t know how to, but you do.
I can walk behind you and help pick up your bounty.”

Hexin was actually itching for some hunting, but she had to quell her urge earlier as her mother was with them.
Now that her mother had returned to the city, there was no one watching her and she was eager to go.

She gave a light cough.
“But I heard that there aren’t just pheasants on that mountain; there are vicious wild beasts too.
Are you sure you want to come along?”

Yuan You was not scared when she heard this.
Instead, she became a little excited.
“Is that true? I’ve never seen wild beasts before.
Bring me along so I can see one for myself.”

Yaoyao glanced at Yuan You, who was looking at her expectantly, and shrugged.
She replied nonchalantly, “We don’t have anything to do now, anyway.
Let’s go have a look since we’re already here.”
