Cangyue Kingdom——Quezhou Posthouse

As she spoke, Ye Ling glanced at Yue Kun and found that he had a complicated expression. She suddenly realized something. Since she entered the hospital today, Yue Kun had been emphasizing that what happened last night must not be told. She was not a fool, and suddenly she figured it out.

Nangong Che still had a smile on his face: “Is this all you two did last night?”

"What else?" Ye Ling already understood everything, so she didn't say anything more. "We went home together afterwards. Of course, I wanted to treat him to a meal, but your Yue Kun refused to comply, so I had no choice. Later, we met Black Eagle and Yue Sishi on the way. Oh, and we also caught two yamen runners pretending to be thieves. Where are they?"

"Oh, it has been handed over to the subordinates to handle." Yue Kun also knew that Ye Ling understood, and he felt relieved.

In this way, the two chatted about this and that during the meal, and Black Hawk left.

Nangong Che was completely relieved. He felt a little regretful that he shouldn't have distrusted Yue Kun. After all, he had followed him since he was a child and was loyal to him. He felt that he was a little mean.

After dinner, Nangong Che asked Yue Kun to take Ye Ling home, walking along the street, and returning openly.

Ye Ling appeared very grateful, finally she didn't have to soar high and low, and in her heart she greeted Nangong Che's ancestors for eighteen generations.

The two walked for a long time, making sure there was no one around before Ye Ling spoke: "Yue Kun, thank you for today."

"I should be the one thanking you," Yue Kun said.

Ye Ling stopped and looked at Yue Kun: "If I had said the wrong thing just now, would we both have died?"

Yue Kun was silent and did not answer.

Ye Ling nodded: "Silence is better than words here. The imperial family is indeed the most ruthless. They can turn against each other at any time. I am fine with it, but you have followed him since childhood, and he is also so ruthless."

"Your Highness is having a hard time, that's why he's so cautious. Don't worry about it."

Ye Ling laughed: "He wants to kill me and set up a Hongmen Feast for me. Do you think I won't take it to heart?"

Yue Kun was speechless: "I'm sorry, I got you into trouble."

"You're wrong. You saved me." Ye Ling glanced at the place not far behind him and said, "As soon as we left the inn, someone was watching us."

"They are Prince Xian's men. There are also Prince Xian's men in the post house. Your Highness was a bit extreme today. He shouldn't have allowed you to go to the post house openly, and you came out like this. Xian will misunderstand."

Ye Ling sneered in his heart. As expected, no one in the Nangong family is a good person. Nangong Che, I'm helping you like this, but you still want to drag me into this. You deliberately let Nangong Hanyi and Nangong Xuan see me contacting you. Then when you ascend the throne in the future, Nangong Xuan will hate me even more and will say that I am cooperating with you. You little guy, since that's the case, then I won't follow your ideas.

Looking at the dazed man, Yue Kun called out, "Envoy Ye? What's wrong?"

Ye Ling smiled slightly: "Yue Kun, you owe me a meal, when are you going to make it up to me?"

"Well...I can just make up for it when I'm not on duty, okay?"

"You said so, don't make me wait too long!"

"No, no, I should treat you to a meal for what happened last night."

"I want to eat at the largest restaurant in Quezhou. Is that okay with you?"

“Of course, but that’s after the lockdown is lifted.”

"Okay, we're almost at the Guiren Pavilion. Come, give me a hug, and then you can go back." Ye Ling gave Yue Kun a big hug without any warning, and looked proudly at the person following her. She would rather have a scandal with Yue Kun than be involved with Nangong Che.

Yue Kun was completely stunned. It was the first time in his life that he was frightened by a woman throwing herself into his arms!

Ye Ling let go of Yue Kun and smiled slightly: "Don't think too much, it's just a hug between friends. I'm leaving, don't forget to come find me when you have time! I'll be waiting for you, bye..."

Looking at the person walking away, Yue Kun covered his heart with his hands: "Oh my god! It's beating too fast. I can't think too much. We are just friends. Yes, just friends."

Meanwhile, inside the inn, Black Hawk asked in confusion, "Your Highness, why did you allow Ye Ling to come here so openly? And even let Yue Kun escort her out through the main gate? Isn't that a bit too ostentatious? Prince Xian and the Emperor are spies outside."

"Ye Ling, this woman is too uncontrollable, but she is a rare good sword. I have thought about it. We must tie her tightly to our rope and let everyone see her coming to the inn. Then it will be obvious that she is here to see me. In this way, the emperor and Nangong Xuan will hate her even more. For the sake of safety, she must wholeheartedly help me seize the throne. She has the support of Langya Pavilion and Feng Qingyang behind her. This is definitely not an ordinary force." Nangong Che said slowly.

"I see. I understand."

"You go to the prefectural government and keep an eye on it to see if there is any new movement. The plague in the city can be stabilized by Yue Kun. We will lift the seal in three days, and there will be no more febrile diseases from now on," said Nangong Che.

"Yes, my subordinate will go right away."

Ye Ling returned to the Noble House and saw Jiu You in his room. She quickly asked, "Didn't you go to dinner? Why are you here?"

"I was worried about you, so I came back after eating. They were playing Pai Gow outside."

"Don't worry, we will be able to leave and return to Langya Pavilion in five days at the latest," Ye Ling said with a smile.

Jiuyou then smiled: "I don't want to stay here anymore."

"Me too. I just finished my meal and I'm a little tired. How about... you stay with me to sleep for a while?" Ye Ling said with a wicked smile.

Jiuyou said helplessly: "No kidding, just sleep when you are tired, I am next door and no one will disturb you."

"No, I'm going to sleep in the space. Just help me take care of Susu."

"Okay," Jiuyou responded.

Time flies, and two days passed. The next morning, Ye Ling got up in high spirits and asked Jiuyou to take care of Su Su. She wore a white, narrow-necked silk dress with red edges and left the Guiren Pavilion happily.

Ye Ling had a clear goal. When she arrived at the place where patients with febrile diseases were treated, she saw Yue Kun from afar and waved to him.

Yue Kun looked surprised and trotted over quickly: "Go, go, go, go further away, it smells too bad here, why are you here?"

Ye Ling glanced at Hou Bing's master who was three steps away, and then deliberately said loudly: "I missed you, so why can't I come to see you? I guessed you were here, and you said you came to see me when you are not on duty. Men are really not trustworthy."

Yue Kun looked confused: "No, I've been too busy these past two days, so I didn't have time to look for you. Don't be angry, after I finish my work today, it will be unblocked tomorrow. I'll take you to Cuiyue Tower for some delicious food, okay?"

"you said?"

Yue Kun nodded and looked at Ye Ling: "Your clothes look good today, very beautiful."

"Just the clothes are pretty?"

“People are more beautiful.”

"That's more like it." Ye Ling patted Yue Kun's shoulder: "Then you go ahead and do your work. How about I stay here and watch you for a while?"

"It smells so bad here, let's go back!"

"Okay, bye, see you tomorrow." Ye Ling left happily, feeling happy in her heart: Nangong Che, you have no good intentions, so I'll just play with you.

Looking at the person walking away, the master finally spoke: "Captain Yue, if I am not mistaken, that person just now was Ye Ling, right?"

"Yes, is there a problem?" Yue Kun's face changed immediately.

"No, no, it's just weird. How does Captain Yue know her? It looks like the two of you have a special relationship."

"This has nothing to do with you, right?" Yue Kun ignored his master and continued to direct the handling of the body.

The guard beside the master whispered, "Master Zhang, did you see that? I was right. That day on the street, Ye Ling and Captain Yue embraced, inseparable. So Ye Ling went to the inn to look for Captain Yue, not King Wen."

The master nodded and said, "That's right. Look at the physique of King Wen. Which normal woman would be attracted to him?"

"That's not right, Captain Yue, a man with good looks and both literary and martial skills is preferred by women."

"Well, send someone to keep an eye on them for the next two days, and then come to a definitive conclusion."

"Yes, Master Zhang, don't worry, I will keep a close eye on it."

"go"

At the Guiren Pavilion, Su Su looked at Ye Ling who had returned and was confused: "Did you finish the job so quickly?"

"Of course not. I like to end the battle quickly. What do people in Yuechi say?" Ye Ling poured himself a cup of tea.

"Brother Yue said that we will set off on the 25th, which is no problem for him. By the way, Lord Youlou said that he will have to wait for a few days, but he will definitely arrive around the 10th of August," Su Su replied.

"That's good. Yue Kun said that the lockdown will be lifted tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, the 25th, we will set off directly and go home."

"Okay, I can go home now," Su Su was very happy, but suddenly her expression changed: "Sister, tell me, after I go back, do I have to live back home? They said that the bride and groom cannot see each other for a month before the wedding. I don't want to go back, I'm scared."

"Just don't see him, why do you have to go back?" Jiuyou, who was wiping his sword, spoke.

"That's right, Jiuyou is right. What's the name of the place where Master lives?"

"Immortal Peak," Jiuyou replied.

"The Immortal Peak was specially built by Brother Mo for the purpose of providing a home for Grandpa Feng in his old age. We also have a home here. Although it is in the same mountain as Langya, it is within the Langya Pavilion. It is not far away and is very quiet, which is very suitable for Grandpa Feng." Su Sujieshi said.

"That's right! My senior brother is getting married at the Immortal Peak, and that will be our common home. You will be waiting to be married in my Renzi Hall then. I'll see who dares to say no. It would be the least of my punishment if I don't kill him," said Ye Ling.

"Thank you, sister. It's great to have you. I'm not afraid of being bullied." Su Su was very happy.

Ye Ling took out the bag of small change and a hundred-liang silver note and said, "Sister-in-law, this is for you. After the lockdown is lifted tomorrow, we'll go to the street together and see if there's anything you want to buy."

"No, no, I have money," Su Su felt a little embarrassed to answer.

"Take it. This is what your senior brother left for you. Just spend it with peace of mind." Ye Ling knew that it would not be easy for Su Su to accept it, so he said that it was given by Mo Yufeng.

"Really?" Su Su was immediately overjoyed: "Brother Mo gave me some money when we broke up, I was embarrassed to take more, after all, we weren't married."

"Look at you, women look for men just to have someone to lean on. Of course, I'm different. I have the strength of a man, so I don't need to rely on a man. Hurry up and put it away. Let's go shopping tomorrow."

"Okay," Su Su took the money.

"Okay, these are the last two days. Be happy. Let's continue playing music and dancing tonight. Sister-in-law, enjoy your single time."

"Yeah," Su Su nodded.
