Gan Yuxuan glanced at the butler, who quickly ordered someone to bring the food over. It seemed that as long as this uncle wanted to do something, his lord wouldn't object.

The two of them sat at the table with the two attendants by their side. The butler went to settle the matters.

He slowly lowered his head to eat, and then continued to stay by the man's side and in the room. However, he did not know if the relationship between the two of them would progress further because of this.

No one spoke. The meal was very dull. Helian Manqiu was planning on how to bathe in Jia Yu Xuan's room and how to drive this thick-skinned and heartless master out of the room.

Gan Yuxuan put down his chopsticks, and Helian Manqiu also slowly put them down.

"Is Qing Yu ready?"

"Yes."

With the spirit of learning from Gongzi Xuan, she decided to not say anything when she could, not to say a single word when she could!

"Qing Yu, go take a bath and change your clothes."

Helian Manqiu cast a sidelong glance at Gan Shixuan for a moment. "Master, please first. How could I dare to be before you?"

Gan Yuxuan coldly snorted, "Don't even think about putting on an act in front of this grandpa. Do you want this grandpa to serve you?"

One sentence, made Helian Manqiu extremely depressed. A thick-skinned man had taken advantage of her injury to bully her to help her bathe. Now he was even threatening her with this matter.

"My lord, this lowly general will take his leave."

With a wave of his sleeve, Helian Manqiu turned around and walked out of the room. Seeing this, the housekeeper and waiters sucked in a breath of cold air. It seemed that their lord had been too rude.

"Send someone to serve him. Do not disobey his orders. If you need anything, do it immediately."

"Yes, my lord."

The butler hurriedly followed him down. His master was very indulgent towards this young master and did not mind his rudeness. He could not figure out what his master was thinking and had no choice but to personally attend to him.

Outside in the courtyard, the personal guards of Helian Manqiu had already finished their meal and were waiting outside the main hall, ready to receive Helian Manqiu's orders at any time. These janissaries were the best at martial arts. They knew very well that Helian Manqiu was a woman's trusted aide and had always been by her side.

"Young General."

A few people saluted and followed behind him. The butler guided Helian Manqiu to Gan Zhixuan's room. At this moment, Gan Zhixuan had moved another bed to the other side of the room.

"Uncle, this is the Lord's room. If you need anything, please instruct me to prepare it for you."

Helian Manqiu strode into the room. The room that was given to her was similar to the living room of the general's mansion. There was nothing unnecessary, nothing extravagant, nothing extravagant. It was simple and unadorned, which was the arrangement that Helian Manqiu liked.

The janissaries looked at each other. Was their young general going to take over the lord's room again?

Looking at Helian Manqiu, no one could ask what it was. In the end, there was still Gan Jianxuan's butler here.

She nodded with satisfaction: "I want to bathe and change my clothes. Please get the housekeeper to prepare it for me, so there is no need for the housekeeper to come over personally. Just send someone to prepare it for me."

"Yes, the hot water has already been prepared for uncle. What kind of person would uncle like to serve?"

The steward wanted to know from Helian Manqiu's choice whether this young master had a beautiful servant girl or a pageboy.

A few servants and maidservants were lined up outside the door. They all lowered their heads and respectfully stood within the courtyard, waiting for the orders from the distinguished guests within.

"These are the cleverest servants and servants in the mansion. Uncle can choose any few to serve you."

The butler slightly lowered his head. He was secretly peeping at Helian Manqiu's expression. This young man, who was the most beautiful youth in the Northern Frontier, was indeed excessively handsome, even more beautiful than a woman. If it weren't for the faint trace of heroic spirit and the slight killing intent that condensed between his eyebrows and the sharp gaze in his eyes, he would have thought that this marquis was a beautiful woman.

He recalled that he had seen Helian Manqiu's sister before. Indeed, as expected of the twin siblings, they were both exceptionally beautiful.

Only the young miss of the Weak Wind and Willow was a truly delicate beauty. Although this young master was handsome, he still possessed the prestige of a great general.

"No need, please take them away. I don't need anyone to attend to me."

Helian Manqiu thought to herself, this butler is purely here to cause trouble for her. The people who are left to wait on her and those who are willing to serve her, it is hard to say whether or not she will expose the fact that she is a woman.

"This... How could there be no one by your side? Since Master knows about this, I must say that I have neglected you, Uncle. I cannot afford to take the blame. "

"It's alright. The Lord won't blame you. The few of them have served me well enough."

Helian Manqiu extended her hand and pointed to the janissaries at her side. She would not use anyone else to serve by her side. Moreover, at this moment, Bloodsword was also by her side, not leaving a single step behind.

"Big Brother Bloodsword, you should bring your men to rest as well. What are you worried about in the Lord's manor?"

"The Lord has ordered me to protect your safety. Although this is the Lord's manor, we cannot be careless. I will send someone to protect you here and await your orders."

"Big brother Bloodsword, I beg of you. I'm already tired from running all the way here. Please take your men away from me and let me rest for a while."

The Blood Sword rolled its eyes at Helian Manqiu. "You think I'm willing to serve you? "Hmph, if it wasn't for my master's order, I would have liked to stay away from you."

With that, Bloodsword turned around and left with his men. The Bloodsword man silently bowed and took his leave of Helian Manqiu. It was this young uncle who had never cared about the rudeness of their commander. If it were anyone else, they would have already lost their temper.

The butler looked strangely at the blood sword without even saluting before he turned around and left. He then looked at Helian Manqiu, who did not seem to pay attention to the blood sword's attitude. Perhaps, she was already used to the commander's rude actions.

Seeing this scene, the steward felt even more baffled. No matter what, this young uncle was still a high ranking official, a third rank official, a noble Count. Wasn't that commander a bit too polite?

Although the Blood Sword was one of the hidden guards' commanders, it was only giving the Blood Sword the right to do so. The Blood Sword was hiding from the imperial government and was only giving the Xuan as a personal guard. Personal soldiers were like servants. They sold their bodies to their masters. They were born for their masters, and their masters died for their masters!

The butler ordered the servants to prepare everything in the hot water for Helian Manqiu. The leader of the personal guards smiled and cupped his fist at the butler, "Butler, please do not come here personally. Master has just returned home and I presume the butler still needs to attend to you. "My family's young general has always been very unrestrained and casual. He only needs us to wait on him."

"If that's the case, then I'll be taking my leave. I've ordered some servants to wait upon you in the yard. If you have any orders, please give them any."

"Many thanks, Butler. Please ask him to serve the Lord."

The butler bowed and left the room. He saw a few personal guards bow and follow him out as well. The room's door was closed by the personal guards. Helian Manqiu was the only person left in the room.

"This, uncle is going to bathe and change his clothes, don't you want to leave two people to wait on me?"

"Young General never needs anyone to attend to him when he takes a bath or changes his clothes. Please take care of yourself, Steward."

When the butler returned to the study, the Blue Luan personally served Gan Yuxuan change clothes and prepared a hot water bath.

"Master, Uncle said that there's no need to send someone to serve. Uncle left a few personal guards by your side to attend to you."

"Let her be."

"Master, do you have any other orders?"

"Nope."

The butler did not dare to say anything else as he bowed and left. The two attendants then showered and changed into a new set of clothes. The Blue Luan silently stood in the study room with its head lowered, thinking about something.

After she served Ganshu, she stood by the side with her head bowed, waiting for Gan Zhixuan to continue his bath.

"Go rest."

"Master …"

The Blue Luan lifted its head and looked at Gan Jianxuan. Right now, the Lord didn't even want her to bathe?

With a deep sadness and disappointment, the Blue Luan kneeled down. It raised its head and looked at Gan Zhixuan stupidly, "My lord, this subordinate knows his wrongs and did not serve the lord well. Please bestow punishment upon me."

She lowered her head and kowtowed. Her heart was filled with sorrow and she didn't even have the qualifications to complain. She didn't even dare to utter half a word of complaint.

Although the Blue Luan was one of the commanders of the Hidden Guard who was willing to give up its position to Xuan, in reality, it was only willing to give up its position to a high-ranked slave leader by Xuan's side.

She had also sold her body to Gan Yuxuan, but she was only a servant in front of the people who served her. The master was everything to her, the master's words and wishes, everything she had to believe in.

Everything about her, including her life and body, belonged to her only master.

"Are there any movements of the people sent out from Beijing?"

"Reporting to the lord, someone has already arrived at the military region. They still do not know that the lord has followed him to the capital."

"Keep an eye on them, don't let your guard down."

"Yes, this subordinate will obey. My Lord, now that Helian Qingyu has been conferred the title of Count, His Majesty has bestowed upon him a feudal fiefdom." Your subordinate is worried that he will develop a proud and arrogant heart and have ill intentions towards your master as a result. "

"There is no need to worry, she can forget about escaping from this grandpa's grasp."

Gan Zhixuan's words were filled with a strong sense of confidence. He replied lightly, then closed his eyes and lay down in the warm water.

"Yes, my lord. If those people come to Shengjing and wish to contact Helian Qingyu, should we stop them?"

"Blue Luan, you have gone overboard. What is Qing Yu's current status? How dare you call her by her name? "

"Yes, your subordinate knows his mistake. Your subordinate has neglected this matter, which is why I called you by your name in front of your lord." This Subordinate absolutely does not dare to have the slightest bit of impoliteness in front of Young Master. "

"It's good that you know this. In the future, regardless of whether it's in person or behind your back, you must not be impolite."

"Yes, this subordinate will obey. My lord, those people all have wicked intentions in their hearts. They all want to contact their lord to try and rope him in." "If I let them contact me, I'm afraid that since I'm still young, I might have thoughts that I shouldn't have had."

"There's no need to stop them. Just let them freely contact Qing Yu. You just need to keep an eye on those people. The connection between them and Qing Yu is naturally being watched by the blood swords."
