The host of the quick travel is lacking in virtue for eight generations

However, when Xiao Yun came out, he found that the courtyard gate was closed and there were servants guarding the door.

There was no way to get out through the main door, so I had to go to a more hidden corner and climb over. Alas, I couldn't escape the fate of having to climb over the wall in the end.

Not long after she climbed over the wall, the invisibility talisman lost its effect. Fortunately, she walked through a remote and shaded place with no one around, otherwise there would have been rumors that the Pingxi Marquis Mansion was haunted.

"No. 11, No. 11, are you there?"

Xiao Yun called out twice but got no response.

"Is this guy going to wander off somewhere again?"

I was thinking of asking it to help me find a route back that didn't have people around, but it ran away again. Now I had to rely on myself.

Even though the Pingxi Marquis' Mansion is not doing well now, there are still guards patrolling the mansion, especially on the roads between the courtyards, to ensure the safety of the inner courtyard.

Fortunately, the mansion was well connected without too many walls in between, and the patrolling guards could not come from all directions, so they could be avoided as long as they were careful.

To be honest, Xiao Yun felt that Jiancheng's doing this would make it easier for thieves. It would be easier for her now, and if a thief really came, it would also be easier for him.

When she was almost at Tai'an Courtyard, she happened to meet a team of patrolling guards. It was very empty here and it was not easy to hide. She looked around and found no trees or stones, only a short clump of flowers and plants. She was thinking about entering the space when a big hand grabbed her arm. She was so scared that she almost screamed.

Then I heard a deep and attractive male voice: "Don't be afraid, it's me."

She immediately stopped the scream that was about to come out, and then she felt an iron arm holding her waist, and then she felt her body being lifted into the air!

Her eyes widened instantly, and she felt a cool breeze blowing. When she landed on the ground, she was already inside the wall of Tai'an Courtyard.

Oh wow~ Qinggong! It really lives up to its reputation!

This clean and neat movement, the extremely fast speed, and the silent landing were absolutely amazing. She must learn it in this world.

They were safe after entering, but there was only a wall separating them from the outside, so she didn't say anything and directly pulled Qi Yun towards the main house.

At this time, except for the guards patrolling outside and the night watchmen, everyone should be asleep.

After entering the room, they saw Hongling sitting at the table outside. When she saw them come in, she immediately stepped forward and greeted them.

Xiao Yun waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite. It's getting late, so go down and have a rest."

"Yes." Hongling replied, and bowed before leaving.

Qi Yun took a look and said to her: "You are a loyal maid."

Xiao Yun nodded, "After all, we grew up together. Why are you here again? Didn't you just come here at noon?"

Qi Yun told her what happened when he entered the palace in the afternoon, and took out the imperial edict from his arms for her to see.

Xiao Yun took the imperial edict curiously. She was not curious about the content inside, after all, Qi Yun had already told her. She was curious about what the imperial edict looked like. This was the first time she had seen it.

The imperial edict in his hand was made of brocade, which is silk in three colors, with patterns of auspicious clouds and cranes on it.

There are a lot of words on the white silk in the middle, most of which are words of praise and some modifying words. The key points are two sentences: one is that she works for the emperor, and the other is that she is conferred the title of county lady.

Xiao Yun almost chuckled and looked at Qi Yun and said, "I didn't expect that this strange combination of circumstances would actually turn out to be just as the emperor's edict said. Does this count as a blessing in disguise?"

Qi Yun raised his eyebrows, "Oh? How do you mean?"

"I actually found something wrong today, and I really deserve the credit for this."

As she spoke, she told him what she had discovered today, including the matter of the poisonous insect.

These are all related to Yuncheng. Instead of spending time and manpower to investigate it ourselves, it is better to hand it over to the emperor. Such matters are easier to investigate for those in power.

Qi Yun did not show a happy expression after hearing this. Instead, he said with a worried look: "How can you take risks alone? If they find you, they will definitely fight you to death. Moreover, they may use witchcraft, which can kill people without being seen."

Gu magic is not a secret, of course he had heard of it. It is unique to southern Xinjiang. It is said that people there have been raising Gu insects since childhood. They not only raise Gu insects to control people, but also grow Gu insects on their bodies. They can also make them immune to all poisons and even save their lives at critical moments. Such people are very difficult to deal with.

Now I heard that Xiao Yun went there to search by herself. Not only did you search people's luggage, but you also went to the bedroom to eavesdrop. If you were discovered, there would be no reason to spare her life. The other party would definitely kill her to silence her.

Xiao Yun smiled and said, "You have forgotten my ability. Not only are they not the ones who know Gu magic, but they can't hurt me either. On the contrary, I can easily kill their Gu insects."

Qi Yun suddenly thought of the bottle of magic water she gave him at noon, and his heart suddenly felt at ease. Yes, he had been so busy worrying before that he forgot about the ability of this little girl, who had divine means.

As expected, he was too concerned and confused. The main reason was that he had already regarded her as his own and of course he didn't want her to get hurt.

Speaking of the magic water, he said to Xiao Yun: "I used your magic water when I went back, and then the two traitors confessed honestly. They were indeed not the King of Qi's men, but the King of Yue's men."

"King of Yue?"

Xiao Yun looked confused. Of course she knew who the King of Yue was. Although he did not appear in the plot, he was in the original body's memory.

The retired emperor had a total of seven sons, three of whom survived and were raised and are still alive. The eldest is the King of Qi, the second is the Emperor, and the sixth is the King of Yue.

The King of Yue is one year younger than Qi Yun, which means he is six years younger than the current emperor. He is just 24 years old this year. He was not yet an adult when the emperor ascended the throne. It can be said that he was made a king at birth, mainly because he had no chance of becoming emperor.

As soon as he came of age, he went directly to his fiefdom, unlike the King of Qi who stayed in the capital. This was also a disguised way of saying that he posed no threat and did not need to be kept under surveillance.

The King of Yue's fiefdom was in southern Xinjiang.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yun was stunned, then looked at Qi Yun and said: "The King of Yue's fiefdom is in Southern Xinjiang, and Lu Jiaojiao's grandmother is from Southern Xinjiang. There shouldn't be any connection between them, right? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence.

But if that is the case, the age difference between the two is too big. If that person is also the King of Yue's man, the King of Yue can't have started planning since he was born, right?"
