When Lin Wan heard that Lu Tingxu and Yan Liu had quarreled again, she sighed and didn't know what to say.

They are the ones who love passionately and quarrel fiercely. Is this really interesting? Or is this what is called love?

Lin Wan didn't understand, nor did she want to try to understand. Such a relationship was too energy-consuming and time-consuming, and she didn't want to spend her hard-earned time on these things.

In her previous life, she spent too much energy and time on Shen Qinghe, but she was killed before she could enjoy the life of a lady that she had finally obtained.

She didn't want anything else in this life, she just wanted to live her life well, manage the mansion well, and enjoy her life.

As for Lu Tingxu and those people in the backyard, she didn't care how they made trouble as long as they didn't cause her trouble.

It was also from this day that Lu Tingxu and Yan Liu started a cold war again, and because the two of them no longer lived in the same yard, it became even more convenient for them to have a cold war.

Lu Tingxu went to the Jinwu Guard to be on duty early in the morning every day, stayed there until dark and then went to the restaurant to eat and drink with his new friends, and often came back in the middle of the night.

Yan Liu had been blocking him in the mansion for two days, but she didn't see him. She couldn't help but start to get anxious. Did she really say something too harsh that day? Should she just apologize to him?

Thinking of this, Yan Liu started dressing up carefully early that day, and even made herself look a little haggard, thinking that Lu Tingxu might feel distressed when seeing this, and would come over to coax her without her having to take the initiative to speak.

Unexpectedly, she waited for a long time in Xuguang Pavilion, but did not see Lu Tingxu come back. After asking around, she found out that he had already gone to Lin Wan's yard. For a moment, Yan Liu had forgotten about showing weakness and immediately went to Xuanli Pavilion angrily.

In Xuanli Pavilion, Lin Wan was a little surprised to see Lu Tingxu coming to her after work, but she still smiled and greeted him.

As soon as the two sat down, Lu Tingxu spoke about his purpose.

It turned out that he had made many friends and colleagues in the Duwei Mansion in the past few days. He thought that everyone was taking good care of him, so he wanted to find a time to set up a banquet at home and invite everyone to gather at home. This matter still needed Lin Wan's help to arrange.

After listening to this, Lin Wan smiled and said, "I will definitely do whatever the prince asks me to do. What day do you think is suitable?"

"Maybe in five days. Everyone's been a bit busy these days, so it's a good time to come over and have a drink after we're done."

Lu Tingxu thought for a moment, "I found a master in the Duwei Mansion, his name is Dong Qiang, he was a former soldier. He has a lot of skills and has taught me a lot in the past two days."

Lin Wan became interested when she heard this, "Master? If you want to learn martial arts, there should be many good masters on father's side who can teach you?"

"..." Lu Tingxu was silent for a while, "My father taught me some basic skills before, but..."

Seeing that he was somewhat embarrassed and unable to speak, Lin Wan understood what he meant.

It is likely that he could not persist, which made Lord Lu angry, and finally he gave up and stopped learning. As for why he is willing to learn now, it can only be said that people grow up, experience more, and are in a different environment, and then they realize what they have missed.

However, for the sake of face, Lu Tingxu was unwilling to take the initiative to tell Lu Hou that he wanted to learn martial arts again. Fortunately, he met a good colleague who was willing to teach him, so he became an apprentice.

"Since you are my master, then we should have a formal apprenticeship. How about this? I will prepare some gifts for the apprenticeship, and the prince will take us through a formal apprenticeship ceremony. This way it will seem more formal. What do you think?"

After listening to Lin Wan's suggestion, Lu Tingxu lowered his head and thought about it. He had only called him Master as a joke when he was resting in the Duwei Mansion. He just called him Master casually. But in the past few days, Dong Qiang has been teaching him Kung Fu seriously, and he has also taught him some rules and tricks in the Duwei Mansion.

He is already doing what a master should do, but as a disciple, he doesn't even have a formal apprenticeship process, which is indeed a bit too much.

"You're right. I didn't think enough." Lu Tingxu nodded. "Then thank you for your help."

"Your Majesty, you're welcome."

"Um... I have something else to trouble you with."

Lin Wan looked up at him and motioned for him to speak directly.

Lu Tingxu hesitated for a moment. "Master Dong's wife died of illness at an early age. He only has one daughter, who is now in her teens. Master Dong is a grown man and doesn't know how to educate his daughter. He is also afraid that if he doesn't teach her well, it will be difficult for her to find a husband in the future, so he is very conflicted."

"Does the prince want to help?" Lin Wan asked tentatively, wondering if he was planning to bring her into the palace to be his concubine again?

Thinking of this, Lin Wan's expression could not help but change. If this was the case, then Dong Qiang's initiative to teach Lu Tingxu kung fu probably had a purpose, which was to send his daughter to the Marquis' Mansion to enjoy a good life.

Lu Tingxu knew from Lin Wan's expression that she was overthinking, and hurriedly explained: "No, don't think too much. I thought of it myself. You have a good personality and are good at managing the household. Both my parents praise you. It would be great if you could take care of Master Dong's daughter and teach her some things about the inner house."

After that, he added: "I have already told him about this... He is very happy."

Lin Wan was speechless when she heard this and rolled her eyes silently in her heart.

You agreed to it without her permission, why are you still discussing it with her? Is it possible that she will not agree and make you lose face?

"Since the prince has said so, I will give it a try. However, I have never met Miss Dong, and I don't know if I can get along with her. If there is anything I cannot do, I will tell you. When the time comes, I will ask the prince to explain it to Master Dong for me."

Lin Wan spoke carefully, and made it clear up front that she had never even met that lady, so if they didn't get along, don't blame her.

"No, no, you are the person I trust the most!" Lu Tingxu praised happily when he saw that she agreed.

Lin Wan: “…”

It was agreed that a banquet would be held in five days. At that time, Master Dong would bring Miss Dong over, and Lin Wan would receive her in the inner courtyard. They also talked about the arrangements for some dishes and drinks for the banquet. Lu Tingxu also told her a lot about his life in the Duwei Mansion.

Lin Wan had been listening quietly. She didn't say anything about his current street patrol. Instead, she expressed her support for his enthusiasm.

Seeing this, Lu Tingxu felt better, and even the depressed feeling he had felt for many days because Yan Liu despised him for being useless disappeared a lot.

He found that talking to Lin Wan was very relaxing. Even if he was talking about something that happened on the street, she would listen carefully and occasionally give him some small suggestions. This feeling made him feel relaxed and comfortable.

The two chatted for a long time, mostly Lu Tingxu did the talking, Lin Wan only said a few words occasionally. It was not until he had dinner with Lin Wan that he left Xuanli Pavilion feeling relaxed.

Before leaving, Lu Tingxu was in a good mood, "I'll come over for dinner tomorrow after my shift."

"Okay, I'll wait for the prince." Lin Wan smiled and sent him out of the yard.

Lu Tingxu maintained this good mood and walked towards his yard until he saw Yan Liu with a resentful look on his face not far away.
