Quick Transmigration: Leisure

"Master! Master, hiss—"

Among the crowd that surged in with the carriages, there was a familiar figure: Yuan Chen, who had been sent to Dongdu by the Aotian Alliance earlier.

His original air of a refined gentleman was almost buried along with his body when he stumbled in the crowd.

It was only after Changyin stepped forward and gave him a hand that he was able to steady himself.

"Tsk, so heavy."

"What happened? Where is Junior Brother Dianmao?" Feng Chou stepped forward and asked.

When traveling in groups, people born under the Chinese zodiac sign usually travel in pairs for mutual support. If someone is traveling alone, it's assumed that other unforeseen circumstances exist.

Hence this question.

"Senior Brother Dianmao... Ouch, Senior Brother will stay at the Qi family compound and wait." Yuan Chen rubbed his sprained back, feeling somewhat annoyed that Chang Yin hadn't held back and had even given him an elbow strike, only to be met with a merciless retort.

"A distinguished guest has arrived?" Lianzi guessed first.

"Yes! A princess sent someone to visit. Coincidentally, I received a letter from my senior brother that my master will arrive in Dongdu today. I was worried that it might have some negative impact, so my senior brother asked me to come and inform him first." Yuan Chen explained the pomp and purpose of the princess's entourage, and Xia Youmi and her group understood that it was the Seventh Princess.

We should express our gratitude for the rescue efforts at the Tsukuyomi-an fire.

Dianmao and Yuanchen didn't know the details. They only thought it was some kind of romantic entanglement and were afraid that Qi Yingting might accidentally get entangled with it, so they were extra careful.

However, Yan Xingyu's information network was quite good.

Not only will they be able to learn about the identities of the group and their address in Dongdu, but they will also be able to return to this place before them.

It's unclear whether the princess had other motives.

They stood still, waiting for Qi Yingting's instructions.

If one wants to avoid it, the Aotian Alliance has many properties in the East Capital, with hundreds of hidden courtyards of varying sizes, which are usually temporary residences for subordinates to stay in when they are on official business.

This time, however, they entered the city without much disguise.

If others notice, it will inevitably make you seem like a cautious person. Who says a princess's gratitude must come from something in return?

While waiting,

Xia Youmi realized something was wrong.

While they were discussing the princess, the news had already been spread by the various people around them. Under the cover of an aura that was difficult for ordinary people to detect, neither the experts nor Qi Yingting noticed it.

Xia Youmi was able to gain a higher and denser perspective because she had Nian Nian pay attention in advance.

If they spread too far, Xia Youmi will not be able to track the message to its end without moving.

But coincidentally, she watched as the last recipient of the message was none other than the majestic and imposing Third Prince, riding in the parade carriage.

His position is very close.

It took several roundabout steps to finally convey this message to the subordinate beside the other party.

The subordinate appeared to be a eunuch, and several others were receiving information about the entire parade.

After screening, only the important information was told to the Third Prince.

I just don't know.

Is this attention brought about by the Seventh Princess, or are they simply people who are always the center of attention?

Even so, Qi Yingting kept a relatively low profile this time.

There were no insignia of the Aotian Alliance on the carriage or horse. The zodiac members, who had traveled the martial world many times, were all skilled at concealing their presence in the crowd. Moreover, in a place like Dongdu where battles were not easily fought, they would not be noticed at first glance unless one was paying close attention.

"Let's meet them." Qi Yingting unfolded his folding fan, gently waving it a few times, exuding a relaxed air.

His greatest strength is that he doesn't let worries take hold; once he's done what he can, he moves on.

Xia Youmi is also ready to welcome new customers.

Thinking back to the Seventh Princess in the story, she was a capable, ambitious, and charming supporting character. She and the Third Prince were siblings who helped each other along their path of growth, but after they each gained power, they often had different views.

They eventually parted ways.

If they hadn't taken Wan Niang to the Yue Du Nunnery and stumbled upon an "accidental" fire, they might never have met the irritable, fragile, and seemingly incompetent Seventh Princess Yan Xingyu.

Xia Youmi has another guess: in the original text, Yan Xingyu's mother probably failed to be rescued.

This is how he gradually became mired in the quagmire of revenge.

At the same time, it indirectly helps the male and female protagonists uncover the truth and achieve liberation.

Following Qi Yingting's instructions, Yuan Chen prepared to squeeze out of the crowd again, this time bringing along his good senior brother Feng Chou, whose sturdy build made him suitable for leading the way.

The senior brother Feng Chou, who was being pushed forward, had no choice but to do nothing about his good younger brother.

Wait until their figures disappear into the crowd.

The Third Prince's grand carriage had arrived, and his face was full of friendly smiles, showing no sign of his wicked nature.

Xia Youmi also understood that she couldn't rely too much on the original text, as it presented a worldview from a particular perspective.

Perhaps, bad people won't do anything bad to her.

......

"Innocent!"

"Your Highness, this message was sent to me by someone close to Alliance Leader Qi, and it should be accurate."

"If she were truly so useless, why would Qi Yingting have brought her along? He claims to have served her, but she didn't seem to have served anyone at all. She was just studying martial arts the whole way. It's really suspicious."

"Yes, I will continue to investigate."

"Get out." The Third Prince Yan Yunming, sitting in the carriage, remained expressionless, but continued to communicate with others.

Only when they got close enough could Xia Youmi hear their conversation through the system.

In that instant, my hair stood on end.

That voice clearly belonged to one of the people who threw the hidden weapon from upstairs when they rescued Wan Niang that day.

At that moment, she was fighting with all her might, and the system's focus was also on the strong man's moves.

I didn't notice immediately that someone had quietly appeared upstairs.

After the opponent made their move, the system screen captured a clear image and the phrase "Let's retreat."

After comparing the actions, Xia Youmi was basically able to confirm that the hidden weapon thrown at Sun Qiaoqiao was not the work of the male supporting character Xiao Wuhen.

He was the one who arrived later, and he ordered the person who had made the move to step back.

But it's clear that the two know each other.

Now, Xiao Wuhen is hiding his face and guarding the Third Prince's side. If Nian Nian hadn't been paying close attention and comparing his voice, it would have been really hard to tell who he was.

Even more chillingly, Yan Yunming and Xiao Wuhen were talking about the unusual Ami who was by Qi Yingting's side.

What exactly did they misunderstand?

Was the person who delivered the message actually Zhong Hai?

Xia Youmi was unconscious at the time, and Qi Yingting had already finished interrogating him. Everyone assumed that Zhong Hai was fine.

It's really strange not knowing what happened.

"Ami, what's wrong?"

Xia Youmi shuddered, secretly wondering if she had relied too much on Niannian's God's perspective.

The thoughtful Chang Yin noticed this and observed her complexion from all angles to see if she was sick or unwell.

"Get in the carriage and sit down, be careful not to get crowded outside." With that, Changyin lifted the carriage curtain.

"It's alright, thank you." Xia Youmi sat down, blocking the curious gazes that seemed to have ulterior motives.

immediately,

The people in the car changed the subject.

"Sifeng, how are the preparations going?"

"They have already been cultivating at Xuan Yang Temple. I have tested them in Xidu and they are more than capable of dealing with these few people."

"Don't underestimate them. It's best to keep them out of it." The Third Prince uttered the coldest command in the instant his smile vanished.

"I obey my orders."
