Feng Ruqing’s face darkened. She glared at Qing Ling. "Qing Ling, you’re overthinking. Who said I’ve given up sleeping with the state preceptor? Sleeping with the state preceptor is my lifelong wish. I’ll never give it up."
Qing Ling bit her lip and stopped talking. The princess had randomly brought back an unfamiliar youth and she could not help but overthink.
After leaving this message behind, Feng Ruqing let the two palace maids take care of the youth and left.
The spirit herbs in the mountain were taken care of by the spirit beast but it did not mean that the snow wolf would not steal and eat them. So, Feng Ruqing would go and stroll around the mountain sometimes lest the other spirit beasts were unable to suppress the grumpy snow wolf.
Luckily, the snow wolf was considered obedient and it did not destroy the spirit herbs. It might understand that there would be a bowl of wolf broth in the princess’s manor the next day if it laid its hands on the spirit herbs without permission.

On the next day, in the morning…
The sunlight was so bright that lit up the land beneath it.
As Feng Ruqing opened the door of her room, the bright sunlight flooded in from above and upon her plump body.
Suddenly, something caught her eyes as she turned to the youth who was under the willow tree.
The youth was dressed in a white shirt. His face was handsome and his skin was fair. His fairness was cleaner than a piece of white paper. It seemed that he was never affected by any
He looked so innocent that nobody dared to destroy it.
Looking at how Feng Ruqing gazed upon him, the youth’s face expressed a sense of awkwardness. He seemed to not like this kind of attention.
"Are you awake?"
His voice was just like his appearance, beautiful and clean. It made his voice unforgettable after hearing it.
"Yeah."
Feng Ruqing answered softly.
After washing up, the youth looked even more like Che’er. But, she understood that this youth would never be him.
"Is there anything you would like me to do?" The youth fixed his clear eyes upon Feng Ruqing. "I don’t want to stay here for free."
"What are you able to do?"
"I can’t do anything."
The youth’s voice was very confident.
"…"
Feng Ruqing was stunned.
‘You can’t do anything? Then, why did you ask if you didn’t know anything?’
She kept quiet for a while and said, "Then, you follow me everywhere I go and protect me. Can you do that?"
Although there was some problem with the youth’s body which rendered him unable to train for now, Feng Ruqing could still feel that this youth’s power was not low. It so happened that there was a lack of imperial guards whom she could bring out of the princess’s manor.
For Liu Li and Qing Ling… they might even need her protection.
"Alright."
The youth bit his lip. His voice was clear and precise.
"Oh, that’s right! What’s your name?" Feng Ruqing raised her eyebrows and asked.
The youth looked at Feng Ruqing and replied, "Qin Chen. My name is Qin Chen."
The surname of Qin was very common and Feng Ruqing could not guess his identity from his name.
However…
Feng Ruqing stroked her chin gently, smiled and sized Qin Chen up. "Your appearance is so much better after you have cleaned up. Don’t ever make yourself look like a beggar anymore in the future. You’re not handicapped and why did you dress up like that?"
The youth’s face froze then he lowered his head. "I still like myself better that way."
Although there was a scar on his face, there were still a lot of men and women who would like to forcibly possess him after he had left his family. So, he became like that after a while just to protect himself.
"But, I like you better now that you’re clean and tidy." Feng Ruqing stroked her chin gently 1 and smiled a little.
