Chapter 193 He is not in a hurry, and neither am I
The fire spread rapidly and thick smoke billowed.
Mingjue quickly packed his luggage and flew out of the window with Yaojia.
The fire in the inn was raging and soon set several surrounding shops on fire. The garrison of Chuyun City arrived quickly and began to put out the fire and rescue people.
Yao Jia looked at the chaotic Chuyun City, a trace of worry flashing in her eyes.
The fire came too suddenly.
Recalling the assassin's sudden appearance, his strange skills and mysterious incense, it was obviously a conspiracy against her.
"Yaoyao, are you okay?" Mingjue held her hand tightly, his eyes full of concern.
Yao Jia shook her head gently, "I'm fine, it's just this fire..."
"Sister Yao..."
Yao Jia turned around and saw the little girl she had saved during the day.
"Chun Ya, why are you here?" Yao Jia's heart tightened when she saw the fire that had not yet been extinguished.
"Could it be possible that your family has also been..."
Chunya shook her head repeatedly, "No, no, how could I possibly live in such a luxurious street."
Yao Jia breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Then why are you here?"
Chunya glanced at the fire scene that had been controlled by the garrison.
"I heard from people in the alley that there was a fire here. I was worried about you, so I came to check it out. It seems that the inn here, Sister Yao, has been affected. If you don't mind, you can stay at my house tonight."
Yaojia and Mingjue looked at each other, both filled with gratitude.
"Then it's annoying."
Chunya waved her hands and said, "Don't bother me, don't bother me. Grandpa and I are the only ones in my family. There are plenty of empty rooms."
The three of them chatted and laughed all the way and soon arrived at Chunya's house.
Old Man Chun was relieved to see that Yaojia and Mingjue were safe and sound.
The grandparents and grandchildren seemed to know that Yaojia would agree to stay, and they cleaned up the house early for them to stay.
"Sister Yao, you should rest early."
After Chunya left, Yaojia looked around the house carefully.
Although it is not as luxurious as an inn, it is warm and cozy everywhere.
Mingjue made the bed and saw Yaojia staring at it in a daze.
She has lived a life of luxury since her childhood, so she probably can't get used to living in such a simple place.
"If you feel uncomfortable, why don't we go to a farther place and stay at an inn tomorrow?"
"No, I just think this room is weird."
Mingjue looked around. Apart from the table, chairs and benches, there was only this bed in the room.
The brocade quilt and soft pillow did not seem strange at all.
wrong!
Mingjue returned his gaze to the bed, his expression solemn.
How could a poor family who made their living by collecting herbs in the mountains afford to use such precious fabric as silk for the back?
I felt something was wrong when I made the bed just now, and now it turns out to be like this.
Without saying a word, he pulled Yao Jia up and prepared to leave.
Stopped by Yao Jia.
"I just said it was a little strange, I didn't say you couldn't live here."
Yao Jia reached out and touched the quilt on the bed. It was soft and smooth, with delicate daffodils embroidered on the quilt.
I leaned over and smelled it, and there was a faint fragrance.
She curled her lips and smiled. It was the scent of daffodils, which she loved.
Seeing Yaojia taking off her shoes and socks and preparing to go to bed, Mingjue reminded her urgently.
"Yaoyao, this is too strange. Ordinary people can't afford such an expensive quilt."
Yao Jia smiled indifferently, "It is too strange, but this grandfather and grandson will not harm us."
"But because we saved Grandpa Chunya?"
Yao Jia shook her head, "No, because they are from Lingyun Palace. Lingyun Palace's secret agents are spread all over Daxia, and they usually disguise themselves as ordinary people to collect intelligence."
Meeting the grandfather and grandson during the day might have been a coincidence, but when Chunya appeared there shortly after the inn caught fire at night, Yaojia began to feel that something was fishy.
Who would be willing to let a little girl go out alone in the middle of the night?
He followed her back calmly to see what she was planning, until he saw the embroidered pattern on the quilt and guessed their true identities.
Daffodils are her favorite flowers. It seems that Ye Sinan had noticed it as soon as she and Mingjue stepped into Yunwu.
Who sent the people in the inn tonight?
Mingjue felt relieved after hearing what Yaojia said.
"Since they are from Lingyun Palace, can we let them take us to Lingyun Palace tomorrow?"
Yao Jia thinks it’s okay.
The next day.
When Yaojia and Mingjue got up, Chunya had already prepared breakfast and was placing the dishes on the table.
Seeing the two people coming out, he hurriedly asked them to sit down.
"Sister Yao, Doctor Ming, come and have breakfast."
There were two dishes and one soup on the table. Although simple, they were delicious.
"Sister Yao, try my cooking."
Yao Jia didn't see Old Man Chun, so she couldn't help but be curious, "Why don't I see your grandfather?"
"Grandpa went up the mountain to collect herbs early in the morning."
Yao Jia felt that half of the trip was to collect herbs, and the other half was to report to Ye Sinan.
Just as he was about to pick up the food with his chopsticks, Mingjue touched him without making a sound.
"Let me taste it for you first."
Although Yao Jia trusted Ye Sinan and had no intention of betraying him, human hearts were unpredictable. It was possible that the assassination and the fire last night were related to him.
He picked up the chopsticks and tasted the food on the table one by one, as if he was testing for poison.
Yao Jia: …………
He glanced at Chunya and smiled awkwardly: "He is too hungry."
"Yes...Is that so? Then, Doctor Ming, eat more."
During the meal, Yao Jia looked at Chun Ya from time to time, muttering to herself.
There is no doubt that Old Man Chun is from Lingyun Palace, but whether Chun Ya is actually from Lingyun Palace is still unknown, so it is better to give her a quick question.
"Chun Ya, your sister Hong Ying is coming back soon, are you happy?"
"Of course I'm happy. I've been here for two years..."
Chunya hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and quickly stopped talking.
Yao Jia curled her lips and smiled. Since she knew Hongying, she must be from Lingyun Palace.
He kept a stern face and looked straight at the little girl opposite him.
Chunya felt her whole body crawling when she looked at her, but she still pretended to be calm while eating. However, her shaking hands when she picked up the food had already exposed her.
"Don't try to be calm. You covered me with such a nice quilt last night. Weren't you prepared for me to discover your identity?"
Hearing this, Chunya sighed and put down the chopsticks in his hand.
He stood up, walked to Yao Jia's side, and bowed to her respectfully.
"Your subordinate Chunya greets the master."
Her voice was clear and pleasant, completely different from the timid and introverted girl just now.
Yao Jia waved at her, motioning her to stand up.
"It seems that your Palace Master knew about my arrival here. In that case, you should take us to Lingyun Palace today."
Chunya looked embarrassed when she heard this.
"My Lord, please forgive me. Although my grandfather and I are secret agents of Lingyun Palace, we have never entered Lingyun Palace. All the messages we pass back and forth are delivered by shadows."
Yao Jia frowned slightly. It seemed that she had to wait for Hongying to come.
But why is Ye Sinan not in a hurry? Isn't he afraid of the Heart-Erosion Gu attacking him?
Yao Jia felt depressed. She came all the way here to bring him medicine, but he didn't come down to greet her even though he knew she was coming.
All right! Ye Sinan wasn't in a hurry, so why should she be in a hurry? She might as well investigate which bastard had harmed her yesterday.
