Moonlight and wind

"Then where can we go now?" After hearing what Miss Yunfang said, Zi Ling'er began to get anxious.

"Don't panic!" Miss Yunfang calmed her down. "I only heard that the Western Office has sent tracking experts to all of Wudu to look for Miss Qu's whereabouts. After all, the Western Office is only responsible to Emperor Wu, so is this an order from Emperor Wu?"

Miss Yunfang shook her head again. "The Emperor would not mobilize his army for a woman who did not participate in the selection. So there is only one possibility. Someone wants to get rid of you by using the Emperor!"

"That leaves only one person!"

"Princess Jinyu!" Qu Xuanyue and Miss Yunfang said in unison.

"She is so capable that she can mobilize all the experts in the Western Office?" Zi Zhong also expressed everyone's doubts.

"But, don't worry, Miss Qu, Jinxiufang is safe for now, you don't have to worry," Miss Yunfang said, holding Qu Xuanyue's hand, "There is a secret room in this courtyard, and even I rarely use it. If someone from the West Office comes, you can take shelter in the secret room for a while! Follow me!"

Miss Yunfang took Qu Xuanyue and the other two to the wing room at the back of the courtyard.

Miss Yunfang placed her hand on an ordinary small wooden box on the cabinet, and the cabinet slowly opened, revealing the door of a secret room. Miss Yunfang took a tinderbox from the cabinet, pushed open the door, and lit the lamp on the wall.

Going down the stairs, a room appeared with everything you need.

When Xuanyue saw the environment of the room, it seemed that someone had lived here just a few days ago. This was inconsistent with what Miss Yunfang had said just now, that it was rarely used, and made her feel a little alert.

"The food stored here is enough to last for a month or two!" Miss Yunfang patted a few large jars in the corner, "If the people from the West Office really come, Miss Qu can hide here!"

"Thank you, Miss Yunfang!" Qu Xuanyue and the other two bowed in thanks.

After seeing Miss Yunfang off, the three returned to the side room. "Miss, I can finally feel at ease this time!" Zi Ling'er felt much calmer.

"I'm afraid we can't stay here any longer!" said Xuanyue as she watched Miss Yunfang leave.

"Did the lady discover something?" Zi Zhong asked.

"There are indeed some suspicious places. We should get out of the city as soon as possible!"

At night, the nightlife of Jinxiufang has just begun! Tonight, Mr. Zhu came again. Although he did not see Miss Yunfang, he also took a few good hangers and drank in the private room.

In the courtyard of Jinxiufang, Xuanyue and the other two changed into light clothes and groped their way to the back corner door of the courtyard. When they arrived at the door, they opened it and found that it was locked!

Zi Zhong carefully observed the surrounding environment, and pulled Zhu Xuanyue and Zi Ling'er to a big tree nearby. The three of them climbed up the wall along the tree. Zi Zhong jumped down from the wall first, and then caught Zi Ling'er and Zhu Xuanyue.

When they landed, they heard voices coming from the courtyard. The three of them quickly held their breath and stuck to the wall.

"According to the information provided by Lord Zhu from the Imperial Guard and our tracking, the daughter of Quye City did live here!" As soon as these words came out, Zi Ling'er was so scared that she quickly covered her mouth to prevent herself from making any sound.

"More than living, maybe I was just living!"

"Should Jinxiufang, who is hiding a fugitive, be punished together with him?"

"Don't involve Jinxiufang. You just arrived not long ago and don't know enough about some things. In Wudu City, the most untouchable place is Jinxiufang!"

"I've heard that Jinxiufang is not simple. How could it be that even our West Office is helpless?"

"Do you know who is behind Jinxiufang? Who founded it?"

"I don't know!"

"Come closer and listen!" Then there was a whisper, which Xuanyue and the other two could not hear!

"Ah! Isn't that the same as our West Office?"

"Hush! I'm only telling you so much because you're new here. When you see more in the future, you'll naturally know what you can do in Wudu City and what you need to turn a blind eye to. Finding someone is the most important thing!"

Xuanyue and the other two heard outside the wall that the two people from Xishu had left. "Miss, where are we going?" Zi Ling'er asked in a low voice.

"Go back! Since the people from the West Office have been here, they will not come again someday. And we have also heard that Jinxiufang is the most untouchable place in Wudu City. Even the people from the West Office come to investigate secretly at night!"

As he was speaking, Zi Zhong had already brought over a few wine jars that had been abandoned at the foot of the wall, stacked them up, and helped the young lady and Zi Ling'er back over.

Two days later, several officials from the Western Office knelt before Princess Jinyu.

"The three-day deadline is coming soon," Princess Jinyu looked at the officials below with contempt, "Are there any progress?"

"I am incompetent and have not received any news yet!"

"Where did you find out?"

"We've already searched all over Wudu City, but..." The official hesitated.

"Stop talking nonsense and speak!"

"It's just that I don't have the authority to conduct a full search of Jinxiufang!"

"Jinxiufang, that's the singing girl's house that the left prime minister gave to my father!"

"That's right! Firstly, Princess, you transferred the Western Office without the Emperor Wu's order, and the pursuers sent out were all low-level officials who were not on the list, so as not to leave traces for the princess and cause trouble; secondly, there are people from the Left Prime Minister in Jinxiufang, so it is difficult for the Western Office to intervene!"

"You are very careful in your work," Princess Jinyu praised. "Thanks to you for thinking it through for me. This matter really cannot be known to my father. Who in Jinxiufang is the left prime minister's man?"

"The top pick - Miss Yunfang!"

"This Young Master Shan has become a hands-off boss. He has been here for several days and hasn't said a word!" Miss Yunfang's personal attendant muttered.

"How has Miss Qi been these days?" Miss Yunfang touched the hair ornament on her head. "Did she run away again?"

"Replying to the young lady, the night the pursuer from the Western Office came, he slipped out of the courtyard and came back, and he has not come out since."

"She does have some tricks up her sleeve, but even I can't trust her!"

"Should we continue to protect her?"

"What the Left Prime Minister meant is that we have to wait a few days to see what Shan Zimo will do."

"Why would the Left Prime Minister care about a sect's young master?"

"This person is no ordinary person," Miss Yunfang smiled, "This person will be the one who decides the fate of the world in the future!"

At this time, Shan Zimo was lying in the courtyard of Longyin Garden with the shape of a big character.

"Young Master, get up quickly, this is disrespectful!" Shan Boyu tried to pull him up, but he didn't move at all.

"How many days has it been?" Shan Zimo asked Shan Boyu with his eyes closed.

"What days?"

"How many days has Master Zhiye been in seclusion?"

"It's been three days!"

"Almost?"

"hold on!"

"Let's go check it out?"

"Don't bother the master, you go there eight times a day!"

"What if it happens now?"

"Young Master, you should just lie down!"

As he spoke, a green glowing light shot straight up into the sky from the direction of Master Zhiye’s thatched cottage!

"Young Master, look!" Shan Boyu hurriedly shook Shan Zimo, who opened his eyes and jumped up, "It's done!"
