As soon as Zhu Linlang finished speaking, there was a burst of footsteps outside the hospital.

"Is the group leader here?" A respectful voice sounded outside the courtyard.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang looked at each other, then walked to the entrance of the courtyard and saw a servant wearing Wen family clothes standing there, looking at them respectfully.

"It's us, what's wrong?" Zhu Linlang asked.

The servant bowed respectfully and said: "This is a gift from my eldest young master to Your Highness the Princess. Please accept it."

As he spoke, he handed over a beautiful gift box.

Zhu Linlang was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that the eldest young master of the Wen family would give her a gift.

She and Fang Yue looked at each other, a trace of doubt flashing in their eyes.

Fang Yue nodded slightly and motioned for her to take the gift.

Zhu Linlang smiled and continued: "I accept your eldest young master's kindness, but I cannot accept this gift."

The servant didn't seem to expect to be rejected. He was a little stunned for a moment, but quickly regained his composure and asked softly:

"Your Highness, this is a gift carefully selected by my eldest young master. Are you really not going to accept it?"

Zhu Linlang shook her head and said firmly: "Please tell your eldest young master that I appreciate his kindness.

But I have my own principles and cannot accept gifts from others casually, especially such expensive gifts. Please forgive him. "

After hearing this, the servant was a little disappointed, but he still responded respectfully: "Yes, Your Highness. I will convey your words to the eldest young master."

Zhu Linlang smiled again to express her gratitude, then turned and returned to the yard.

~~~~~~

The next day, at dawn, Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang got up early.

Today Zhu Linlang is going to take Fang Yue to visit Shenjing City.

Shenjing City, the capital of the Wei Dynasty, has a long history and profound heritage.

When the two of them walked out of the courtyard, they saw a wide and clean street with antique buildings on both sides.

Although it is not yet completely bright, there are already many pedestrians on the street, and vendors have begun to set up stalls, preparing to welcome the new day.

Zhu Linlang led Fang Yue through the streets of Shenjing City with ease. As she walked, she introduced the history and stories of the city.

Fang Yue listened with great interest and asked questions from time to time, which Zhu Linlang patiently answered.

They first came to an ancient temple. The temple was full of incense and there was an endless stream of believers.

Zhu Linlang led Fang Yue into the temple and said softly: "This temple is dedicated to the patron saint of our Wei Dynasty. It is said to be very efficacious, so there are many believers."

Fang Yue looked around, looked at the people praying devoutly, and nodded.

Fang Yue said softly: "The atmosphere here is really solemn, and you can feel people's piety and belief."

Zhu Linlang smiled slightly and responded: "Yes, this temple has witnessed the historical changes of Shenjing City, and also carries people's beliefs and hopes. Every brick and stone seems to tell an ancient story."

The two continued to visit the temple, stopping from time to time to admire the murals and sculptures and feel the charm of ancient culture and art.

Just when Zhu Linlang and Fang Yue were immersed in the ancient charm of the temple, there was a sudden commotion outside.

Zhu Linlang and Fang Yue looked at each other and walked out of the temple curiously.

I saw crowds of people watching on the street, seeming to be watching something lively.

Zhu Linlang squeezed into the crowd curiously, only to find that in the center of the crowd was Wen Feiyang, the eldest young master of the Wen family.

Wen Feiyang was dressed in brocade clothes, with a face like a crown of jade and eyes like bright stars, and was surrounded by a group of people.

When he saw Zhu Linlang, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then turned into a deep smile.

"Princess, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here." Wen Feiyang stepped forward and saluted gracefully.

Zhu Linlang was also quite surprised. She returned the greeting and said with a smile: "Master Wen, it is indeed a coincidence. Are you also here to visit this temple?"

"That's right." Wen Feiyang nodded, "I have admired this temple for a long time, and I came here specifically to pay homage today. I didn't expect to meet the princess here. I am truly lucky."

Fang Yue stood next to Zhu Linlang. He looked at Wen Feiyang and secretly evaluated the eldest young master of the Wen family.

Wen Feiyang didn't even look at Fang Yue. He didn't seem to notice Fang Yue beside Zhu Linlang. He cupped his hands and said:

"Your Highness, it's better to meet by chance than to invite you. Why don't you host me today and help Your Highness to wash away the dust."

Zhu Linlang smiled slightly and shook her head, "Master Wen, I appreciate your kindness. But I have plans today and can't keep the appointment. Besides,"

She paused and glanced at Fang Yue, "I am not alone, I am accompanied by friends."

Only then did Wen Feiyang seem to notice Fang Yue's presence. He turned around and nodded to Fang Yue, "This friend is unfamiliar to me, don't you know?"

"Oh, this is Fang Yue, my good friend." Zhu Linlang introduced.

After hearing this, Wen Feiyang bowed his hand to Fang Yue and said, "Brother Fang, I'm glad to meet you."

Fang Yue also returned the greeting and said, "Brother Wen, I have long admired your name."

Wen Feiyang turned to Zhu Linlang again, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he still maintained his graceful demeanor.

"Since the princess has made arrangements, I won't bother you. However, if the princess needs any help during the trip, feel free to come to me."

Zhu Linlang nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Master Wen. I will definitely ask you for help if I need it."

"That's very good." Wen Feiyang smiled slightly, handed over to the two of them again, then turned and left.

Looking at Wen Feiyang's leaving figure, Zhu Linlang sighed softly.

She turned to look at Fang Yue and found that he was also looking at her, their eyes met, Zhu Linlang's face blushed slightly.

"Where should we go next?" Zhu Linlang asked in order to break the brief silence.

Fang Yue came back to his senses and smiled slightly, "According to your arrangement, I am not very familiar with Shenjing City."

"Okay, let's go to the market."

Zhu Linlang suggested, "The market in Shenjing City is very lively. There are many unique handicrafts and snacks. You will definitely like it."

"Okay." Fang Yue nodded in agreement.

The two left the temple and walked towards the market.

At the market, they tasted various special snacks, and Zhu Linlang also chose a gift for Fang Yue, which was an exquisite jade pendant.

Fang Yue bought Zhu Linlang a bunch of candied haws, and the two enjoyed this rare leisure time in the bustling market.

But at this time, Wen Feiyang, who was secretly following Fang Yue and the others, had a gloomy look on his face.

"Bitch, how dare you reject me!"

Wen Feiyang clenched his fists angrily in the dark, his face as gloomy as water.

As the eldest young master of the Wen family, he has a distinguished status. When has he ever suffered such a setback?

He originally thought that with his identity and charm, he could easily win Zhu Linlang's heart, but he didn't expect that she would reject him so firmly.

"Master, what should we do now?"

The servant next to him asked cautiously, for fear of offending the unhappy master.

Wen Feiyang took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions.

He cannot let anger get to his head and must calmly think about his next move.

"Keep staring at them."

Wen Feiyang said coldly, "I want to know their every move, especially that Fang Yue. I want to find out his details."

"Yes, young master." The servant responded, turned and left.

In the market, Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang were not aware of the secret turmoil.

They continued to wander around, enjoying the lively atmosphere of the market.

Zhu Linlang introduced various special snacks and handicrafts to Fang Yue from time to time, and Fang Yue also listened with interest, and occasionally bought some gadgets for Zhu Linlang.

~~~~~~~~

At this time, Wen Feiyang came to a restaurant.

He went directly to the private room where he often came. At this moment, the door opened.

The door slowly opened, and the graceful figure of the royal princess appeared in Wen Feiyang's sight.

Wearing a luxurious palace dress and an exquisite phoenix crown, she has an elegant and majestic temperament.

"Master Wen, have you been waiting for me for a long time?" The eldest princess said with a slight smile on her lips.

Wen Feiyang quickly stood up and saluted, "It's a great honor for Wen to have Her Royal Highness the Princess come here. I wonder if Your Highness has any advice for coming this time?"

The eldest princess sat down lightly and glanced at Wen Feiyang, "Master Wen, I heard that you met Zhu Linlang and the man named Fang Yue at the market today?"

Wen Feiyang was shocked, but remained calm on his face, "Yes, Your Highness."

"Master Wen, I have something important to discuss with you today." The eldest princess sat in the upper seat of the Wen family's living room, her tone serious and mysterious.

Wen Feiyang bowed and saluted, "Your Highness, the eldest princess, is really welcome. I wonder what your Highness's orders are?"

The eldest princess glanced at Wen Feiyang and said slowly: "Master Wen, I know that you have been pursuing Princess Zhu Linlang, but do you know that Fang Yue beside her is a great threat."

Wen Feiyang frowned and asked, "What does His Highness mean by this?"

"This person, Fang Yue, I suspect has evil intentions against the royal family." The eldest princess continued, "I hope you can help me deal with Fang Yue."

Wen Feiyang's heart moved. He was already jealous and hostile towards Fang Yue. Now that he heard what the eldest princess said, he became even more determined to get rid of Fang Yue.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the Wen family has been loyal for generations, and it is our duty to share the worries of the royal family."

Wen Feiyang said respectfully, "It's just that I wonder how His Highness wants me to behave?"

The eldest princess smiled slightly and said, "Young Master Wen is indeed very smart. I hope you can find a way to lure Fang Yue out of Shenjing City."

Wen Feiyang was secretly happy, this was exactly the result he wanted.

He nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will do my best to complete this task."

The eldest princess nodded with satisfaction, "I will naturally feel relieved when I hear that the young master is doing something. After the work is completed, I will definitely be generously rewarded."

A trace of greed and expectation flashed in Wen Feiyang's eyes, and he bowed deeply, "Thank you, Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess for your appreciation. Wen will definitely fulfill his mission."

The eldest princess stood up and patted Wen Feiyang's shoulder gently, "Remember, this matter is of great importance, so you must proceed with caution. I am waiting for your good news."

After saying that, the eldest princess turned and left the private room, leaving Wen Feiyang alone immersed in the fantasy of the power and glory he was about to obtain.

In the market, Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang were still wandering around. They knew nothing about the coming crisis and were still enjoying this rare relaxing time.

Zhu Linlang picked up an exquisite handicraft, smiled and said to the other party, "What do you think of this? I think it suits you very well."

Fang Yue took it and looked at it, and smiled, "It's indeed very special, I like it very much. Thank you, Linlang."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere was warm and sweet.

~~~~~~~

After the eldest princess left, Wen Feiyang immediately began planning how to lure Fang Yue out of Shenjing City.

He was secretly proud, thinking that he would be able to get rid of Fang Yue in one fell swoop this time, thus clearing the obstacles to pursuing Zhu Linlang.

He summoned his servants and gave some instructions in a low voice. The servant took the order and started to act according to Wen Feiyang's plan.

Wen Feiyang's plan is simple, but also very direct.

He decided to solve this problem in a man's way - through a fair duel, inviting Fang Yue to compete at the Yuhuatai outside the city.

In this way, not only can Fang Yue be lured out of Shenjing City, but he can also show his strength and charm in front of everyone.

More importantly, if Fang Yue loses in the duel, then he will naturally lose the qualification to pursue Zhu Linlang.

So Wen Feiyang personally wrote a letter of challenge, full of provocation and arrogance, inviting Fang Yue to fight at Yuhuatai.

He believed that as long as Fang Yue was still a man, he would never refuse such a challenge.

Wen Feiyang carefully folded the letter of challenge and handed it to the servant beside him. "You personally deliver this letter of challenge to Fang Yue. Remember, make sure he receives it personally."

The servant accepted the letter of challenge and left quickly after saying yes.

Soon, the war letter was sent to Fang Yue's hands. Fang Yue opened the letter of challenge and looked at Wen Feiyang's provocative words above.

Fang Yue then looked at Zhu Linlang next to him and smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that the eldest young master of the Wen family is really infatuated with you."

Zhu Linlang glanced at Fang Yue, with a hint of embarrassment on her face, "I didn't know he would be so persistent."

Fang Yue gently held Zhu Linlang's hand, "Don't worry, I won't let you suffer any trouble."

Zhu Linlang felt the warmth of Fang Yue's palm, and her heart warmed, "I believe you."

"Then what are you going to do about this duel?" Zhu Linlang asked worriedly.

"Show this letter to the head of the Wen family, and ignore this childish duel."

Fang Yue said calmly and handed Wen Feiyang's letter of challenge back to Zhu Linlang.

There was no trace of fear or nervousness on his face, as if this duel was not worth mentioning at all to him.

Zhu Linlang took the letter of challenge and glanced at Fang Yue, with a flash of admiration in his eyes.

She knew Fang Yue's strength and believed he could handle this duel, but he chose to solve the problem in this way, which made her appreciate his wisdom and calmness even more.

After all, with Fang Yue's current strength, if he really competed with the eldest young master of the Wen family, it would be pure bullying.

"Okay, I will have someone give this letter to Head Wen," Zhu Linlang said.

"No rush, just wait a few more days!" Fang Yue said.

"Why?" Zhu Linlang asked curiously.

"Since Wen Feiyang wants to compete with me so much, let him worry for a few more days." Fang Yue smiled slightly.

Zhu Linlang also laughed after hearing this, "Okay, let him wait for a few more days. But, are you really not going to accept his challenge?"

Fang Yue shook his head: "This kind of duel is meaningless to me. Besides, I don't want to delay our schedule because of this kind of thing." (End of Chapter)
