Ge Lihua said, “This is an inn. The brother who saved you asked me to take care of you. If you remember the way back home, I can also send you there.”

The young girl, overwhelmed with emotion, rushed over and clutched Ge Lihua’s hand, asking cautiously, “Sister, can you really take me home?”

Ge Lihua nodded affirmatively, “Yes, I can.”

Overjoyed to the point of tears, the girl hurriedly said, “My home is in Fengxin County, at the Lin family residence. My father is Second Master Ye, and my mother is Second Madam Lin. Can you take me back?”

Ge Lihua reassured the girl, “Don’t worry, we’ll take you home soon.”

The girl knelt before Ge Lihua, gratefully saying, “Thank you, sister, thank you.”

Ge Lihua helped her up, “No need to be so polite.”

The girl, filled with hope, asked Ge Lihua, “Can you tell me where the brother who saved me last night is? I want to thank him personally.”

Remembering Chu Qingzhi’s instructions, Ge Lihua declined, “The brother who saved you is very busy and can’t meet you now, but I’ll convey your thanks to him.”

The girl felt disappointed, but then she thought, surely a man involved in significant matters must be busy. Her mood lifted again.

“Sister, please tell him where my home is. If he ever passes by, I’ll invite him for a meal and treat him well.”

Ge Lihua smiled and nodded, “Alright.”

In the afternoon, Ge Lihua personally took the girl back to the Lin family residence.

At Prince Rui’s mansion.

Before dawn, Chu Qingzhi arrived at Prince Rui’s Mansion. She was in Qu Xinwei’s room, where she had hidden him. From now on, for the next five days, she would assume Qu Xinwei’s identity.

Qu Xinwei’s daily duty at the mansion was to serve as a guard and accompany the young prince to the horse farm for horse training.

Prince Rui’s mansion had a horse farm where, three days prior, someone sold a fierce horse that no one had tamed yet. The young prince, intrigued upon hearing this, wanted to see it.

The butler arranged for four guards, including Qu Xinwei, to accompany him.

After getting ready, Qu Xinwei stepped out of his room just as the guards, identified as Jia, Yi, and Bing, came to find him. Together, they headed towards the main gate.

Standing at the gate, Qu Xinwei, somewhat bored, glanced at the ground, wondering whether “Yuan” would assign him any tasks today.

What if “Yuan” didn’t contact him? Where would he find “Yuan”?

Lost in thought, he heard rapid footsteps. Turning his head, he saw a lively young boy, about fourteen or fifteen, emerging from the mansion. The boy, dressed casually, had a handsome face, rosy lips, and white teeth, exuding a natural nobility.

The butler followed, saying, “Young Prince, please slow down. My old bones can hardly keep up.”

The young prince stopped, somewhat disdainfully saying, “If you can’t keep up, then don’t.” Despite his words, he waited for the butler to catch up before proceeding.

But as soon as he stepped out, he grew irritated, “I want to ride a horse, not sit in a carriage!”

The butler hurriedly replied, “Your Highness, the horse farm is outside the city. It’s not suitable to ride there.”

The prince threatened, “Quickly rearrange it for me. Arrange a thoroughbred horse for me, or else I’ll walk!”

Qu Xinwei couldn’t help but smile at the prince’s adorable stubbornness.

The butler, at a loss, suggested, “Your Highness, the horses in the mansion are still hungry. They won’t run fast. How about taking the carriage?”

The prince stubbornly insisted, “Hurry up and arrange it.”

The butler reluctantly signaled a guard.

The guard quickly brought a small pony, “Your Highness, please.”

The young prince was speechless.

Then, his gaze shifted to a few thoroughbred horses nearby. He quickly untied one, mounted it, and galloped away.

This frightened the butler, “Quick, follow him!”

With one horse taken, Jia, Yi, and Bing fought over the remaining horses, leaving Qu Xinwei without one. He wondered if he still needed to go.

The butler urged him, “Guard Qu, quickly take the carriage and follow. His Highness might need it to rest after getting tired from riding.”

“Yes,” Qu Xinwei reluctantly climbed into the carriage and followed.

The young prince, well-protected but inexperienced in riding, soon encountered trouble.

The horse dashed towards the street at high speed. The prince, unable to control it, caused panic among the people. With adults and children everywhere, the horse was about to trample someone…

“Make way, make way…” the prince shouted in desperation.

In the middle of the street, two young girls watched the approaching horse, frozen in fear.

Just then, someone flew from behind, kicking the prince into the carriage, then mounted the horse, reined it to leap over two people, and stopped it.

The horse calmed down, and applause erupted, “Well done, well done…”

The prince, dazed, took a while to realize he had been kicked into the carriage. He quickly lifted the curtain, poking his head out, “You…”

He couldn’t voice the humiliating “How dare you kick me!” but seeing the situation resolved and the man saving others, he decided not to pursue the matter.

“Didn’t expect someone in the mansion to be so skilled in horse riding!”

The prince stroked his chin, pondering, then asked loudly, “What’s your name?”

Qu Xinwei dismounted and bowed to the prince, “I am Qu Xinwei, at your service.”

The prince scrutinized Qu Xinwei, who was dressed in a black, lightweight guard uniform, tall and slightly lean with handsome features. “You’re impressive. If you help me tame the fierce horse later, I’ll reward you handsomely.”

Qu Xinwei replied, “I will do my best, Your Highness.”

The prince gestured to Qu Xinwei, “Come up to the carriage and tell me about taming horses.”

Qu Xinwei thought to herself, now she not only had to be a guard but also entertain a child, “Yes, Your Highness.”

At that moment, the two girls who had been saved approached. One, dressed in blue, shyly said, “Thank you, sir, for saving our lives. If you don’t mind, we both would like to marry you.”

Qu Xinwei didn’t know what to say.

Both girls, around fifteen or sixteen, were pretty and looked like delicate young ladies.

Qu Xinwei politely declined, “Thank you for your kind offer, ladies, but I am already married.”

Understanding the refusal, the girls reluctantly left..
