People in the Qin Dynasty, entertained during the Warring States period

Goji berries, poria cocos, and the Eight-Section Brocade exercise: health preservation should start from a young age.

Li Wu sat on a big tree, blowing her flute with all her might, competing with Nong Yu who was playing the zither opposite her.

Cao Ze muttered under his breath, "Playing it at night and in the morning, isn't that tiring...?"

These days, he basically gets up to Li Wu and Nong Yu's "get up" commands.

To calm Li Wu down, he deliberately increased the intensity of his performance at night.

Let Li Wu blow hard.

To everyone's surprise, Li Wu actually pulled through...

Cao Ze sighed and glanced at Madam Jingni, who was calm and focused on taking care of the baby.

When will I be able to control my mind like Jing Ni?

Cao Ze looked up at Li Wu, who was swaying her long legs and playing the flute with great enthusiasm.

To control one's restless mind, one must first become a 'walker'.

You must travel and experience; the more you experience, the stronger your mind will become.

When you reach the point of "emptiness," you will achieve perfection.

He's currently stuck in the same place, and trying to train his mind is almost a waste of time and effort.

Forget it, let's hold off for now. We'll consider traveling after we break through to the first-class level.

There is still a long way to go on the path to becoming a master.

The flute and zither music gradually subsided.

Cao Ze whistled and stepped out of the house in a cheerful mood.

Nongyu, accompanied by Zinu, came out to meet them.

She smiled gently and said, "Good morning, sir."

Cao Ze: "Good morning."

Forgive him for being used to greeting people that way.

Zi Nu chuckled and said, "Let's go, let's go to Master Kuang Xiu's place together."

Today is the day they and Cao Ze agreed to go to Kuangxiu's place.

She is now seizing every opportunity to bring Nongyu and Cao Ze into contact.

The effect was good; at least it made Cao Ze less wary of them.

Kuang Xiu also lived in the inner city, not far from where they lived.

When Cao Ze and Zi Nu Nong Yu passed by Fei Xue Ge, they were spotted by Ya Fei, who was admiring the scenery from the second floor.

Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly; she had seen Nongyu and Zinu a few days ago.

I just didn't recognize him on the spot.

According to Xue Nu, they had hosted a banquet for Cao Ze at Fei Xue Pavilion just two days prior.

"The mistress of Zilan Pavilion..."

Ya Fei lightly touched her toes and slowly landed on the street from the second floor, walking towards Cao Ze and the other two.

According to the information she obtained from Lian Cheng, Zi Lan Xuan in Xinzheng does not seem to be a simple song and dance hall.

However, she wasn't interested in any of that.

None of the dance halls that have managed to establish themselves in this era are innocent; they all have unspeakable secrets behind them, including her Feixue Pavilion.

She was only interested in this girl named Nongyu, who was wearing a pale yellow dress.

They felt it was a waste of her talents for her to stay at the Zilanxuan in Xinzheng.

Hand it over to her for training and arrangement, and she will guarantee that it will become famous in seven countries within one or two years.

"Your Highness Yafei?"

Cao Ze looked at Ya Fei, who was walking over, with some surprise.

Zi Nu turned her head to look at Cao Ze, her purple eyes revealing a hint of doubt.

That day, she did not agree to Cao Ze's request for Consort Ya to intercede for Nongyu on her behalf.

I simply think it's not worth giving Ya Fei, who loves to overcharge customers, a hundred taels of silver; I feel sorry for her...

Cao Ze shook his head slightly, indicating to Zi Nu not to overthink it.

After missing Cao Ze and Zi Nu, Ya Fei stood in front of Nong Yu, smiled gently, and said, "Nong Yu?"

Nongyu was a little flustered, not expecting Yafei to rush towards her.

She quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Highness, Consort Ya."

The more Ya Fei looked at Nong Yu, who was in the budding stage, the more satisfied she became, and she felt a sense of delight.

"Not bad, not bad..."

Zi Nu frowned slightly, giving the impression that Consort Ya not only intended to rip off customers but also to abduct them.

"Your Highness, what brings you here?"

Ya Fei casually replied, "It's nothing, I just came to see Nongyu."

Nongyu was taken aback, pointing to her delicate nose with her slender jade finger, "Look at me?"

Cao Ze wondered to himself, "Wouldn't Ya Fei's next sentence be 'This woman is destined for me'?"

Ya Fei smiled and said, "You came to Handan the year before last, wanting to become Kuang Xiu's disciples, right?"

Zi Nu asked warily, "How did Your Highness, Consort Ya, know?"

Ya Fei said, "I heard it from Master Kuang Xiu."

Zi Nu looked at Cao Ze; she didn't trust Ya Fei much.

"Miss Zi Nu, don't worry, Princess Ya Fei is telling the truth."

He said to Consort Ya, "Your Highness Consort Ya, we are planning to visit Master Kuang Xiu. Would you like to come along?"

Zi Nu's eyes lit up slightly. If she could get Ya Fei's help for free, that would be... wonderful!

Ya Fei was unaware that Zi Nu had labeled her as a rip-off and a heartless businesswoman, and that Zi Nu even wanted to take advantage of her for free.

She smiled faintly and said, "Xue'er and Liji are practicing their morning dance, and I have nothing else to do, so let's go and see Master Kuangxiu together."

She would never say that she had a strong liking for this girl who was gentle on the outside but tough on the inside and had a great sense of self-respect.

They've already set their sights on Nongyu and are figuring out how to abduct her.

The secluded place where Kuangxiu lived was only seven or eight hundred meters away from Feixue Pavilion.

A moment later, a very quiet little courtyard came into view.

Before they could knock, a slightly 'noisy' piano melody began to play.

Cao Ze frowned slightly upon hearing this. "That sounds awful?"

Zi Nu and Nong Yu looked at each other, wondering if they had come to the wrong place.

Ya Fei explained with a smile, "Master Kuang Xiu has been studying new scores and trying out new playing techniques every day for the past few months."

Cao Ze suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

Not all music is perfect from the start.

The noisy piano music only lasted a few breaths before it stopped.

Ya Fei said slowly, "Master Kuang Xiu."

Using his internal energy, the sound traveled into the courtyard.

Soon after, the courtyard gate slowly opened, and a young musician came out.

"Your Highness, please come in."

Cao Ze and his group filed in.

Seeing the courtyard, which was two or three times larger than his own Qingping Residence, Cao Ze clicked his tongue and chuckled.

It's not easy to live in Handan, especially in the inner city near the royal palace. Such a large house would cost at least 300 gold coins to acquire.

A middle-aged man dressed in white with black trim walked out of the house.

He cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, please come inside."

Ya Fei seemed to have gotten used to Kuang Xiu's expressionless face.

"No need, I just happened to be here."

She stepped aside, and Kuang Xiu noticed Zi Nu and Nong Yu.

"It's you guys."

He was deeply impressed by the performance of Nongyu two years ago, which made hundreds of birds land and listen.

Zi Nu looked at Cao Ze. Her earlier thought of getting Ya Fei to intercede for her was extinguished when Ya Fei offered to take Nong Yu as her student.

Cao Ze coughed lightly and said, "Master Kuang Xiu."

Kuang Xiu looked at Cao Ze, thought for a long time, and then said, "You are... Mr. Cao Ze?"

Cao Ze smiled faintly, "Having a reputation is good."

"Yes, I apologize for disturbing Master Kuang Xiu. I was asked by a friend to ask Master Kuang Xiu to take me on as a student."

Kuang Xiu refused immediately, showing no mercy whatsoever.

"I have already said that I will not accept students."

He was by nature carefree, arrogant, and willful, and even if he acknowledged Cao Ze's talent, it wouldn't change his nature.

Zi Nu and Nong Yu exchanged a glance and sighed softly.

it is as expected.

However, I was already mentally prepared, so it wasn't too hard to accept.
