Fortunately, Wang Yue quickly looked away, and only then did Yan Yuqing secretly let out a sigh of relief.
But she no longer dared to press close to Wang Yue as she had at first. Instead, she stayed at a distance with Wang Ping, quietly asking him about Wang Yue's past.
Wang Ping wanted Wang Yue to have an heir as soon as possible, so he didn't hold back. He picked out what he could share and told her everything in detail, hoping Yan Yuqing would climb into Wang Yue's bed soon.
In his eyes, a maid who couldn't climb into her master's bed wasn't a good maid!
Yan Yuqing was clearly willing to give herself to Wang Yue, and Wang Yue had been eager to help, even going so far as to attack the Commandery Governor. He must have had his own intentions, too.
With Wang Ping egging her on, Yan Yuqing slowly grew bolder. She began testing the waters by talking to Wang Yue again, and when she realized he didn't dislike her, she immediately became even more enthusiastic.
The group soon entered Plum Ridge. Yan Yuqing was captivated by the scenery, and the words gradually died on her lips.
Plum Ridge was part of the Qinling Mountains. It was probably called Plum Ridge in this world because there were so many plum trees in the mountains.
Especially after entering Plum Ridge through Xiegu Pass from Mei County, they encountered plum trees here and there, dotting the desolate wilderness.
The three of them rode along Baoxie Road toward Mount Taibai. The road grew busier, and some enterprising people had even set up stalls there.
Perhaps someone with a taste for elegance had deliberately planted them, for the plum trees grew thickly here and looked especially beautiful in winter,
