Although what Xuanyuan Yuchuan gave was just a booklet, it was made of top-quality materials.

The escort was knowledgeable and had a keen eye. He realized that the booklet in Hu Luanfei's hand was the one used by the royal family, but the word "memorial" was not marked on the outside.

Originally, customers didn't need to report anything when they wanted to send something, but this letter was sealed, which made it look "important". There was also a small cloud pattern on the lower right corner of the letter, with the word "chuan" written in it. The escort immediately thought it was the letter from Prince Beiqiu. But since he had never seen the person in front of him, he didn't dare to make a conclusion.

The escort hesitated for a while, and when Hu Luanfei handed over the letter, he couldn't help but ask, "What is the relationship between the young lady and the recipient?"

Hu Luanfei smiled slightly and said, "An old friend. Why do you want your escort agency to know this?"

The escort suddenly felt embarrassed, "No, excuse me for saying so."

Hu Luanfei personally witnessed the escort wrapping the booklet in a piece of bright yellow silk cloth, putting it in the upper cabinet, and locking it with several locks.

Hu Luanfei was puzzled: "I am escorting an urgent escort, which will be sent out immediately and will not be kept overnight."

The escort master looked around and said, "Look, I'm the only one left here. If I leave, who will take care of the escort agency?"

In fact, there were several escorts sitting in the distance drinking and chatting. Hu Luanfei saw through it but didn't say anything. He lowered his eyes and thought for a while.

Jiang Shi had long been unwilling to stay, and walked around to look around and touch things. The escort felt very ridiculous for Jiang Shi's naive look, and could not help but shook his head and continued to do his work.

"Hey."

"Hey."

After hearing several "hello" sounds in succession, Hu Luanfei realized that the voice came from the opposite side of her. She slowly came to her senses and looked at the escort.

The first thing you see is a rectangular sign in gold, which is dazzling under the candlelight.

But what was even more dazzling was the face that came close to the cards, a face that Hu Luanfei was familiar with.

Hu Luanfei couldn't help but pull him back, "Jiang Shi, stop messing around."

"My lady, it is a gold medal, made of pure gold."

Hearing this, Hu Luanfei turned his head subconsciously and stretched out his hand involuntarily, but was slapped by the other party. He also looked down on them and shouted at them, "Is this something you can touch? Get out of here! Get out of here quickly! You have never seen the world, how ridiculous."

The escort took the opportunity to drive the two men out of the door, and the door of the escort agency slammed shut.

"Compared to you and the escort just now, whose martial arts skills seem better?"

Jiang Shi hesitated and said, "Equally matched."

"Do you dare to sneak in and investigate something?" Hu Luanfei thought that the escort was not very reliable. "It's about the booklet we just wanted to send. Generally speaking, urgent items will not be kept overnight in the escort agency, but the escort looked at the booklet with a strange look, and I always felt that he was hiding something."

Jiang Shi understood and immediately flew into the escort agency in the night.

Hu Luanfei took advantage of the fact that there were still groups of people walking on the street and put his thoughts aside and walked back.

By the time we arrived at Zuihua Tower, it was already past midnight.

Jiang Wu and Yun Xuxu were still awake, so they heated up some ginseng soup and waited. Yun Xuxu took off her cloak, folded it, and placed it on a clean stool.

"It's late at night. You've been busy all day. Aren't you tired?" He took the ginseng soup handed to him by Jiang Wu and stirred it slowly with the ladle.

Yun Xuxu smiled bitterly and glanced at the second floor, "We dare not leave our distinguished guests alone to rest."

Hu Luanfei raised his eyes and saw a faint light coming from the second-floor wing room. "Is the prince still here?"

Yun Xuxu said: "I heard that they are waiting for news."

Hu Luanfei put down the empty bowl and said softly, "You guys go back first. I'll stay in the middle room of the hospital."

"How can I let you be alone with the prince? Jiang Wu and I have just decided to stay at Zuihualou tonight."

Hu Luanfei did not object. It was late at night and it was not convenient for a man and a woman to discuss business matters alone. So she got up and went to the washroom. Yun Xuxu also prepared hot water for her.

……

After a few days of hard work, Zuihualou got used to the situation where the number of customers was only increasing but not decreasing.

Perhaps because Xuanyuan Yuchuan lived in Zuihualou, most of the guests who came were young ladies from wealthy and prominent families.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan would occasionally come down to the first floor to eat, but sometimes he would be too lazy to move and would ask the waiter to bring the food up.

When the competition for the most popular restaurants in Beiqiu began, the news that Xuanyuan Yuchuan was temporarily living in Zuihualou was released for several days, which attracted a wave of loyal fans to patronize Zuihualou's business.

On the day of voting, whichever party Xuanyuan Yuchuan voted for, the girls from wealthy families would persuade their relatives and servants to vote for that party.

When the vote counting was about to be completed, Jiang Shi, who had not been seen for a few days, came back before Xuanyuan Yuqing.

It has been several days since Xuanyuan Yuqing left, and Princess Nanqi has also not been seen. I don’t know what happened in Xifeng Mountain, and it gives people a vague feeling of uneasiness.

Jiang Shi pulled Hu Luanfei's sleeve, motioning her to find a quiet corner to talk.

Hu Luanfei said with a serious expression, "What's the result?"

Jiang Shi said: "The booklet was secretly delivered to Fengyi Palace by the escort on the night the queen left."

"What does the Queen do?"

"The booklet has been destroyed by the Queen."

Hu Luanfei's heart sank, "This is the end."

Xuanyuan Yuchuan once said that the booklet recorded the names of corrupt officials. Now that the booklet has been destroyed, the crimes of those corrupt officials have disappeared. For Xuanyuan Yuchuan, it is more painful to see his hard work go to waste than to let him die.

The moment the door on the second floor opened, Hu Luanfei looked up.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan walked down the stairs slowly, his expression slightly agitated.

Hu Luanfei was worried about the booklet and didn't know whether he should let Xuanyuan Yuchuan know about it.

"Princess Zhan, has your brother contacted you?"

"Never."

"That's strange." Xuanyuan Yuchuan sat down and the waiter poured tea for him at the right time.

Hu Luanfei asked Jiang Shi, "How long will it take to get to Xifeng Mountain?"

Jiang Shi replied: "It will take at least half a day."

Xuanyuan Yuqing had been in Xifeng Mountain for more than five days. During these five days, Xuanyuan Yuchuan had lost his appetite and had been waiting in Zuihualou. It was not until today that he came downstairs with a heavy heart.

Hu Luanfei lowered his eyes, hesitating whether to tell her about the booklet. But when he thought that Xuanyuan Yuchuan was worried about Xuanyuan Yuqing at the moment, he simply suppressed the matter of the booklet in his heart.

She quickly calmed down and felt it necessary to go to West Wind Mountain.

"Prince..."

"Princess Zhan..."

They both spoke at the same time: "You go first..."

Xuanyuan Yuchuan's cold and heroic brows revealed uneasiness, "My brother is a cautious person. There has been no news from you for many days. I'm afraid you have met with an accident."

"I was just thinking of sending someone to investigate West Wind Mountain."

Xuanyuan Yuchuan said: "I just had the same idea."

After a brief pause, he continued, "In the past few days, the Queen has sent people to my Prince's Mansion many times, asking me to come to the palace to investigate your brother's affairs. I would like to ask for your help."

Hu Luanfei smiled: "Even if the prince doesn't say anything, I won't stand idly by, but..."

The following words made her feel embarrassed.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan nodded: "Please speak if you have anything to say."

Hu Luanfei sighed and decided not to hide it from him, "The booklet you asked me to send has actually been destroyed by the Queen."
