Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At Pure and Gentle Women’s Clothing Shop.

A young girl dressed as a servant girl walked into the shop. “Shopkeeper, I’m looking for Miss Qingyue.”

The shopkeeper was a woman in her thirties. When she heard this, she quickly said, “Wait a moment. I’ll go call her for you immediately.”

The servant girl nodded. “Thank you.”

Chu Qingyue quickly walked out of the inner room. When she saw that it was a servant girl, she immediately quickened her pace. “Come with me to the inner room.”

The servant girl did not say anything and left with Chu Qingyue.

In the inner room, Chu Qingyue took out a bag from the cabinet. There were five cheongsams in the bag. One was white, one was red, and one was blue…

She showed the clothes to the servant girl one by one, feeling a little nervous. “What do you think?”

The servant girl’s eyes were glued to the cheongsams. “These are too beautiful.”

It was a style that she had never seen before, but she liked it at a glance.

When Chu Qingyue heard this, she relaxed a little. “I’ve negotiated with your Miss about the price. It’ll be five taels of silver each.”

The servant girl readily took out 25 taels of silver and gave it to Chu Qingzhi. Those girls did not lack money. What they lacked were external items that could show off their beauty, such as… clothes. “Miss Qingyue, I’m leaving.”

Chu Qingyue gripped the silver in her hand tightly. “I’ll send you off.”

The servant girl smiled. “Okay.”

Chu Qingyue recorded the money on the account book and continued to make clothes.

She had now taken in two little disciples. They were all pitiful children from poor families.

The two girls were especially diligent and were very talented in making clothes. They helped her a lot.

“Qingyue!” Ning Yuting’s elegant voice came from outside the shop.

Chu Qingyue immediately turned around and smiled uncontrollably. “Yuting.”

Ning Yuting was holding a red oil-paper umbrella in his hand. He stood under the umbrella in a light purple robe, looking like a graceful young master. “Can we go now?”

“Sure, sure.” Chu Qingyue came out of the room a moment later and walked to Ning Yuting. “Yuting, let’s go.”

Ning Yuting handed the oil-paper umbrella to Chu Qingyue. He said with concern, “The sun is still very strong. Hold the umbrella.”

Chu Qingyue quickly glanced at Ning Yuting and took the umbrella. The handle of the umbrella was still warm from Ning Yuting’s palm. Chu Qingyue felt that it was a little hot and her face turned red uncontrollably. Yuting was really good-looking and considerate. She couldn’t help but like him.

They walked side by side towards the Chu Village.

Ning Yuting thought for a moment and said nervously, “Qingyue, there’s something 1 want to tell you.”

Chu Qingyue tightened her grip on the umbrella and became nervous. “W-what is it?”

Ning Yuting stopped and looked at Chu Qingyue seriously. “Qingyue, I want to marry you. Are you willing to marry me?”

Chu Qingyue’s heart was pounding, and her face was as red as blood. She lowered her head and did not dare to look at Ning Yuting. After a while, she found her voice. “Are you serious about this?”

Ning Yuting was also very nervous. His ears were red. “I’m serious. I’m very serious. Besides, I’ve already asked your elders and they all agreed. It’s up to you now.”

Chu Qingyue nodded lightly. Her heart felt as sweet as if she had drunk honey. “I’m willing.” With that, she quickened her pace. It was too embarrassing.

Ning Yuting looked at Chu Qingyue’s back and couldn’t help but smile. However, it looked more like a silly smile.

Seeing that Ning Yuting did not follow her, Chu Qingyue stopped and turned around to shout, “What are you waiting for? Come.”

Ning Yuting quickly caught up to her. “I’ll go back to the capital tomorrow to prepare for the marriage.”

“Okay.” Chu Qingyue was extremely shy and walked back home in a hurry.

Chu Qingyue returned home and quietly told Li Qingyu what Ning Yuting had told her on the way.

Li Qingyu smiled and stroked her daughter’s hair. “Your fifth sister will be away for a period of time. You have to wait for her to come back before holding the wedding.”

Chu Qingyue said without thinking, “Mother, even if you don’t say it, I will still wait for Fifth Sister. If not for Fifth Sister, 1 wouldn’t have met Yuting at all, let alone get married to him.”

Li Qingyu smiled and nodded. “You are about to get married. I’m very happy. Your father and I will prepare the best dowry for you and let you get married in a grand manner.”

Chu Qingyue pursed her lips, feeling shy and happy. “Thank you, Mother.”

When Chu Qingzhi heard that Chu Qingyue was getting married, she immediately went to the county city to buy the best red satin for her. “Second Sister, I can’t help you prepare for your wedding, so I bought this for you to make up for it.”

Chu Qingyue was touched and took the red satin. “Fifth Sister, I will only get married when you come back. You have to come back quickly.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Got it.”

Ning Yuting rushed back to the capital the next day.

On the same day, the Chu family had done tidying up the new house, but they did not move in. Everyone unanimously decided to wait for Qingzhi to return before moving in on an auspicious day.

On the third day, Chu Qingzhi bade farewell to her family and rushed to the northern border with Tang Jinghong.

The northern border was in the north of the Baling Dynasty. It took 12 days to go from the Chu Village to the northern border.

On the road, an ordinary-looking young man in black and an ordinary-looking young man in white were riding their horses away, leaving behind the sound of hooves and dust.

In the northern border.

In a mansion that occupied a large area and was extremely luxurious, a five-story building stood by the lake.

At this moment, at the window on the fifth floor, a tall and mighty middle-aged man was standing with his hands behind his back, quietly looking at the thousands of koi gathered in the center of the lake.

A figure landed behind him. “Your Highness, there’s an urgent message.”

The middle-aged man was the Lord of the Northern Border. He had a hideous scar on his face, which was left behind from his expeditions in the early years. It was terrifying.

He turned and took the letter.

“Tang Jinghong and Chu Qingzhi came to the northern border. The two of them have disguised themselves, but I don’t know where they are now.”

The intelligence network of the Lord of the Northern Border was extremely developed. All the news in the country, even the news of the affiliated countries, could not escape his ears.

After reading the letter, the Lord of the Northern Border clenched his fist, and the letter turned into pieces that scattered on the ground.

He picked up two portraits from the table and threw them to the person. “List these two people as wanted. If anyone finds them, they will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver.”

“Yes, Your Highness.” Not daring to delay, the person immediately went to carry out the order..
