Bai Suzhen, I really need to punish you properly.

Logically speaking, Wang Xuan should have returned home today.

However, after learning about the stories of Feng San Niang and Fan Shi Yi Niang, Wang Xuan was no longer in a hurry to go back.

Help someone to the very end, and see them through to the end.

Since we've encountered characters from a storybook by chance, we might as well lend a hand.

Of course, the main reason is that both of these young ladies are exceptionally beautiful.

Feng San Niang still had reservations. She frowned and gently shook her head: "Shiyi Niang is a lady from a respectable family and is not yet married. How can she go out to see you without permission? If word gets out, it will only damage her reputation and cause gossip."

Wang Xuan sensed her inner turmoil and smiled slightly: "Then let Shiyi Niang change into men's clothing, so that others definitely won't recognize her."

"Why wasn't it you dressed as a woman?"

Wang Xuan helplessly spread her hands and chuckled, "If a woman of my height were to stand out, wouldn't she attract everyone's attention?"

Feng San Niang gave him a reproachful look: "Then what do you want to say?"

"Naturally, this will dispel Eleven's concerns."

Feng San Niang sighed softly and agreed, "Then you will wait for me by the Water Moon Bridge tonight."

She had her own considerations.

As a fox spirit, she wouldn't have stayed in the mortal realm and delayed her cultivation if she hadn't been so reluctant to part with Fan Shiyi Niang.

Now that Shiyi Niang has finally found a man she likes, how can she just leave him alone? But Fan Gong can't let Shiyi Niang become a concubine. But what if he marries her himself and then secretly helps her get together with Wang Xuan?

The only thing unknown is what kind of person Wang Xuan is.

Since Wang Xuan is the magistrate of Qiantang County, I will go and find out about him later.

Feng San Niang bowed slightly to Wang Xuan, turned and walked out of the house, quickly disappearing from sight in the courtyard.

Wang Xuan didn't care at all; Feng San Niang was a fox spirit, so it was perfectly normal for her to know some magic.

He then summoned his two subordinates, Liu Chunsheng and Zhang Jinbo, and instructed them to return to Qiantang first, while he would stay in Yuhang for a few more days.

Although the two subordinates were puzzled, they did not ask any further questions, bowed, accepted the order, and left.

Time flew by, and night fell.

The streets were bustling with people, adorned with colorful lights, and brightly lit.

The riverbanks were packed with onlookers.

During the period around the Dragon Boat Festival, the city is not only lively during the day, but also filled with fireworks at night, creating a wonderful atmosphere.

Especially in this water town of Wu and Yue, with its crisscrossing waterways and numerous tributaries, the dragon boat races at night have always been the grandest spectacle of the Dragon Boat Festival.

On the river, dragon boats adorned with colorful lanterns raced against each other, accompanied by deafening drumbeats and shimmering lights that illuminated the water's surface.

Wang Xuan, dressed in a light purple robe, stood quietly by the Water Moon Bridge, his posture as upright as a pine tree, the hem of his robe fluttering gently in the evening breeze.

At a bend in the river not far away, Fan Shiyi Niang and Feng San Niang walked side by side and spotted a figure by the bridge in the distance.

Fan Shiyi Niang's pretty face instantly flushed red, but she pretended to be calm and said, "Chun Tao, Qiu Ling, go and pick out some pretty sachets for me and San Niang. San Niang and I will walk along the river. After you've bought them, come find us up ahead."

As she said this, Fan Shiyi Niang's heart pounded.

This was the first time in her life that she had secretly gone out at night to meet a man outside the household, without telling her family or anyone else in the mansion.

She was a renowned young lady from the Fan family in Hangzhou. From a young age, she adhered to proper etiquette and behaved in a proper manner, never overstepping any boundaries.

If this matter is exposed, her reputation will likely be ruined for life.

She didn't know why she dared to take such a big risk.

The two maids, unsuspecting, quietly agreed and turned to join the crowd.

Feng San Niang looked at the uneasy girl beside her and said gently, "Sister, please go ahead. I'll stay here and watch over things."

Fan Shiyi Niang twisted the hem of her dress with her fingertips, her face flustered: "Third Sister, let's go together."

"Go on, sister. Look, he's coming too."

Feng San Niang gently nudged Fan Shiyi Niang.

Fan Shiyi Niang could only lower her eyes and walk shyly toward Wang Xuan.

The evening breeze carried a faint scent of rouge, the unique fragrance emanating from Fan Shiyi Niang.

Although she was dressed in a man's blue robe, a closer look would reveal that she exuded femininity from head to toe. The robe perfectly outlined her slender waist and the unique curves of a young girl's chest.

Fan Shiyi Niang looked up at Wang Xuan, their eyes met, and then she lowered her eyes shyly, her voice soft and slightly reproachful: "Young Master Wang, why did you lie to me yesterday?"

A faint blush rose on her cheeks, and a shallow dimple made her look exceptionally charming and beautiful.

Her bright eyes shimmered with moisture, and her long eyelashes fluttered gently with each blink, like butterflies fluttering among flowers, making her incredibly charming.

Even though she tried to sound nonchalant, she couldn't hide the shyness on her face.

Especially her reddened ear tips.

This little girl blushes so easily.

It makes you want to pinch it.

However, Wang Xuan ultimately refrained from having this presumptuous idea.

Do you want the truth or a lie?

"What is the truth, and what is a lie?"

"The lie is that I fell in love with you yesterday and couldn't resist teasing you. The truth is that I wanted to know how you would react if I actually proposed."

"Now you know," Fan Shiyi Niang said shyly, her heart pounding, and asked in a sweet voice, "What did you want to say to me today?"

Wang Xuan laughed and said, "Didn't Third Sister tell you anything?"

"What did you say?"

Fan Shiyi Niang was full of doubts and confusion.

Looking into her pure and innocent eyes, Wang Xuan slowly said, "For example, I already have a wife at home."

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over her head, instantly extinguishing all the joy and anticipation in Fan Shiyi Niang's heart.

"Then why did you contact me in the first place?"

The color drained from Fan Shiyi Niang's face instantly, her eyes reddened, her nose stung, and she almost burst into tears.

He disregarded all shame, yet the man in question was a married man.

She turned and left, her steps hurried, her slender waist swaying gently, her blue dress outlining graceful and flowing lines.

Wang Xuan quickly overtook her, came in front of her, and reached out to block her path.

"I've come to help you solve your problems." Wang Xuan's voice was soft, but firm. "If Third Sister is willing to trust me, why can't Eleventh Sister trust me just this once?"

Wang Xuan looked at her heaving chest and secretly wanted to laugh. Did this little girl have to be so temperamental?

Fan Shiyi Niang glanced at Feng San Niang not far away, her pretty face still cold, and looked at Wang Xuan with dissatisfaction: "Go ahead and say it."

"I wanted to arrange a good marriage for Eleventh Sister, which is why I wanted to talk to you about it."

Fan Shiyi Niang gave Wang Xuan a deep look, her heart filled with despair, and said coldly, "No need."

"Doesn't Eleventh Sister want to know who that person is?"

"I don't need it!"

Fan Shiyi Niang gave a light snort and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Wang Xuan had no choice but to reach out and grab her wrist, saying directly, "Alright, alright, I won't keep you in suspense any longer, it's Third Sister."

For a moment, Fan Shiyi Niang forgot to pull her hand away, her eyes wide with astonishment: "Who?"

"Feng Sanniang."
