Chapter 41: Not Going (First Update)_1

Yan Qing had lunch and, aside from the red garments on his body making him feel a bit different, his life didn't seem to be affected at all.

He took the Sweat-Blood Precious Horse from the stables and walked it around the Marquis Residence under the scorching sun until the horse was nearly driven mad with heat. Then, he teased the Phoenix-headed Parrot, but looking at the empty birdcage and recalling that the parrot had been sent to Lady Wanyu for training, he turned his head and went to lie underneath the grapevine. Seeing that some grapes were ripe, he asked Yun Luo to cut them down and peeled them for him to eat.

And thus, his day passed in a leisurely fashion.
