"The Amorous Affairs of a Female Official" - Chapter 117: Zhuo Yun's Heart

Unexpectedly, on the second day after the meeting, an imperial edict was issued, explicitly prohibiting court officials from engaging in commercial activities, and anyone who violated this order would be dismissed from their post.
Anyone with eyes could see the targeted nature of this imperial edict. Ming Xiaohe was so anxious that he jumped up and down. Heyi Tower was the result of his years of hard work and dedication. How could he just give it up like that? So he rushed to the Hanlin Academy to discuss countermeasures with Shangguan Rongqin. This matter also brought up other troubles, which will be left aside for now.
General's Mansion.
In the open training ground, Ji Zhuoyun, dressed in a black, narrow-sleeved, fitted bodysuit, moved with fluid and graceful movements. His agile figure resembled a swimming dragon, and the force of his palm and fist was extraordinary, causing several white plum blossoms around him to flutter down.
His moves were fierce and his punches were ruthless, but his brows were furrowed and his face was somber, as if a storm was brewing, making people want to avoid him at all costs.
Yet there were also those who were not afraid of death, gracefully passing through the white plum blossoms, dressed in a deep purple brocade robe with intricate dark patterns, a jade-inlaid brocade belt tied around their waist, their black hair flowing freely, their long eyebrows slanting towards their temples, their black eyes like deep pools of black jade, and a slight smile on their lips, handsome and noble.
"It's been a long time since I've seen your skills," Han Jinqing said lazily, stopping beside a blooming white plum tree. "You haven't let your skills go to waste."
Ji Zhuoyun did not answer, and his moves became increasingly fierce, his palm wind carrying dust as it struck Han Jinqing's location.
Han Jinqing's eyes twitched, and she nimbly dodged. When she looked back at the white plum tree, its branches were broken and its petals were scattered all over the ground.
"What a pity for this plum blossom," Han Jinqing said indifferently, his phoenix eyes slightly narrowed. "Zhuo Yun, I thought you were about to have a good time and shouldn't be so temperamental. Or has your temper been spoiled by the luxurious life you've had in the Duke's mansion since you returned to the capital?"
Ji Zhuoyun's handsome face was somewhat gloomy. From a distance, his dark eyes were fixed on Han Jinqing. Seeing Han Jinqing's nonchalant demeanor, he said in a deep voice, "Whose good deed is this? The Prime Minister's?"
Han Jinqing's lips curled up, "I heard that the Duke of Zhenguo is arranging a marriage for you. Isn't that a good thing?"
"A good thing? That's what you think..." Before Ji Zhuoyun could finish speaking, he suddenly flashed and instantly closed in on Han Jinqing. A gleaming sword appeared in his hand and was already pressed against Han Jinqing's neck.
Han Jinqing suppressed his smile, his expression unchanged, and met Ji Zhuoyun's deep gaze, saying, "I came to your residence today specifically, and if you don't welcome me, fine, but what is the meaning of this?"
"Gu Qingyin... when you were at the manor, did you..." Ji Zhuoyun's breathing was a little unsteady, whether from practicing martial arts or from emotional fluctuations, it was hard to tell.
Han Jinqing's dark, jade-like eyes flickered, and his long eyebrows rose slightly. "Just for Gu Qingyin, you're going to kill me?"
“As long as you answer truthfully, I won’t touch you in the slightest,” Ji Zhuoyun said through gritted teeth, “What exactly is going on between you and Gu Qingyin?!”
Han Jinqing immediately felt an even greater chill on his neck, a heavy sense of oppression. His eyes darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "Ji Zhuoyun, what exactly did Gu Qingyin use to bewitch you, to make you lose your mind and fail to see the current situation! What is the current state of affairs in the court?! What is the state of affairs in the Imperial Guard?! You ask nothing, you care about nothing, you only ask about my relationship with Gu Qingyin!"
Startled by his rare outburst of anger, Ji Zhuoyun loosened his grip, and Han Jinqing seized the opportunity to deflect the sword from his hand.
Every word Han Jinqing said struck him deeply. He knew he was right. His position in the Imperial Guard was precarious because of the matter of the deputy general. He was already exhausted from consolidating his military power and shouldn't have any other thoughts.
After returning to the capital from Yuping Manor, he lived in the Imperial Guard camp for a long time, busy with discipline and morale. He often didn't rest until midnight. Even so, he would think of Gu Qingyin from time to time and the resolute words she had said to him. It was the first time he had ever wanted to be good to a woman so earnestly, but unfortunately, she did not appreciate it.
After returning home, he drank and made merry with his two concubines every night, and invited singers to perform in the mansion. However, he always lost interest after getting slightly drunk. Looking at the flattering smiles of the women around him, and at the mess of cups, plates and bowls on the table, he suddenly felt bored and then roared at them to leave.
He knew he was different from before. He had taken a woman named Gu Qingyin to heart, but he thought that after her repeated and clear rejections, he should give up and be able to rekindle their old flame. However, he found that he was more deeply involved than he had expected.
So he paid a large sum of money to dismiss his two concubines, even though they cried and begged to stay. He was determined, and this even alarmed the Duke of Zhenguo.
