se of uncertainty arose in her heart. If she had known this beforehand, she would have never dared to provoke him lightly."Are you satisfied" Fu Zi Mo came back to his senses, reached out and touched..."The procession from the Chancellor's residence" Qin Luo'yan was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "Do you mean those teams participating in the boat race are all composed of adults"

"It's not all commoners, some are officials from the court and wealthy merchants. They appear at boat races to entertain the people, but also to increase their family's influence." Yin Qi explained.

Qin Luoyan was a little surprised. She didn't expect the people here to be so smart, having already conceived marketing concepts similar to those in modern times.

"The person who came up with this boat race must be a clever one," Qin Luo said with admiration.

Yin Qi, upon hearing this, gracefully bowed. "Miss Qin flatters me," he said.

"Uh..." Qin Luoyan widened her eyes and couldn't help but ask, "Did you come up with that"

Yin Qi nodded. "Five years ago, during the Lunar New Year, I was bored and came up with this idea. Luckily, the Emperor supported it, so all the officials participated very enthusiastically."

Five years ago, he was probably not even twenty years old. No wonder he could sit in the position of the left minister at such a young age. Qin Luoyan admired him and toasted him with tea instead of wine.

Two people were chatting idly when they suddenly heard a commotion in the teahouse. It turned out that someone in the main hall had set up a gambling den, betting on which team would win the boat race.

“If you ask me, General Wei's troops will definitely win this time. Look, General Wei has chosen several strong young men for this competition in the army. Each of them are veterans, they should be able to win even a dragon boat race!”

"Being good at fighting doesn't necessarily mean being good at boat racing. Boat racing relies on technique, not brute force. I think Lord Yin Xiang's team could win. I heard that Lord Yin specially recruited many skilled swimmers from the south to compete in the race."

"That's not necessarily true. The past few years, it's always been Wu Xuan Wang's team who won. This year should be no different. Think about it, Wu Xuan Wang's dragon boat was made by the silver smiths who specialize in making weapons. It's lighter and faster than the others. To beat Wu Xuan Wang would be very difficult!"

“What you guys are talking about are all the favorites, with odds too low. I’m betting on Chu Family, the new contestant this year. I heard they have some history with Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, maybe they'll have some magical artifact to surprise everyone and win! This is a dark horse, but if they manage to win against so many others, it would be a huge payout!”

In the hall, everyone was arguing red-faced, but the one who set up the gambling den was laughing with glee. It was said that the gambling den was run by the biggest casino in town, and the boss was a shrewd man. He even had people go to various teahouses to solicit business. This way, during this boat race, the casino could rake in a fortune.

Yin Qi saw that Qin Luoyan was earnestly listening to the arguments downstairs, and couldn't help but smile and ask: "Miss Qin, would you like to try your luck too"

"Betting on luck" Qin Luoyan turned her head and shook it again. "I wouldn't want to bet my silver on luck. If I could see the teams competing, maybe I'd place a wager this evening."

"This is nothing difficult, young lady. If you're interested, I can take you there to have a look." Yin Qi stood up and made a gesture of invitation.

Qin Luoyan didn't expect that Yin Qi would take her casual remark so seriously. But since she had started it, she couldn't back out now. She stood up and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Lord Yin."

"Miss Qin, we've met before, haven't we Mr. Yin is a mouthful for everyone to hear. I am a few years older than you. If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Yin." Yin Qi said this as he led her downstairs.

It's just a title, Qin Luoyan didn't bother to put on airs of a little woman and immediately agreed.

Several children were excited to hear that they could watch Cai Zhou's team, especially Tiger who immediately cheered. Qin Luo Yan saw their happiness and her face became softer.

"These children are..." Yin Qi was still a little curious about the combination of these few people.

"Wing Sheng is my younger brother, Er Ya is a hired helper I employed, and Hu Er is a child from the neighbor's family." Qin Luo Yan gave a simple introduction.

Yin Qi’s eyes flashed a hint of surprise, but he quickly concealed it. “The helper you hired Qin girl’s parents…”

"They're all gone, only me and my younger brother are left." Qin Luoyan cut him off, but clearly didn't want to say much more.

Yin Qi understood, and stopped asking further questions. He simply led a few people towards the Cai Zhou's team. Just as they were about to arrive, Yin Qi suddenly stopped, then took out a silk handkerchief from his bosom and handed it over, "I don't have anything like a veil around me, only this silk handkerchief can temporarily replace it. If Qin girl is willing, would you please wear this silk handkerchief to cover your face"

Qin Luoyan stared at him blankly, somewhat puzzled by his sudden action.

"Miss Qin, don't misunderstand. It's not that I dislike being with you, it's just that your appearance is too eye-catching. There are many people here and eyes everywhere, so I'm afraid it will cause trouble for you."

When Qin Luo heard Yin Qi's words, she instantly understood. As the Left相, he was undoubtedly constantly watched by many eyes. Anyone who appeared by his side would surely attract attention. If they fell into the eyes of political enemies, it could bring her misfortune. Therefore, he wanted to use this method to shield her from trouble.

A man who could be so meticulous, Qin Luoyan admired him deeply and a faint feeling of warmth arose in her heart.

Such a man, should be someone that all women can't help but want to approach, it's just a pity, she…

Qin Luoyan took the silk scarf, fixed it behind her ear with a hairpin, and covered most of her face.

Yin Qi then led them to the riverbank. The place where the competition was held had already been surrounded by soldiers, and only the members of each competing team were allowed to enter. When Yin Qi brought Qin Luo Yan and the others into the arena, they immediately attracted the attention of those around them.

The current Minister of the Left, young and unmarried, was the object of many aristocratic families' desire for marriage. However, since Yin Qi's grandfather had passed away, he hadn't yet reached the period of filial mourning, which gave him a legitimate excuse not to marry.

But he had already reached marriageable age, and once his filial piety period was over, he would become a highly sought-after prize for all the major powers. So naturally, there were many people watching him both openly and secretly.

So, when a masked woman appeared beside Yin Qi, everyone from the various prominent families took notice and almost immediately dispatched people to investigate her origins.

Qin Luoyan felt the gazes of the people around her, sighing inwardly that she was lucky Yin Qi had been prepared in advance. Otherwise, if her true face had been revealed, she wouldn't even have made it out of here before someone dug up all the dirt on her ancestors for eighteen generations.
