Chapter 323: Something is wrong with her
Two days later, the two returned to Beidi City.
At the city gate, a soldier said to Zixia, "Second Miss, the general has been back for more than ten days."
Zixia nodded: "Oh, I understand."
She said to Lu Xunhuan, "Come back home with me first."
Lu Xun Huan thought for a moment and said, "You go back to the mansion to see your father first. I'll go to the Hua Mansion to get something and come back right away."
So, the two of them split up.
A quarter of an hour later, Lu Xunhuan entered the Hua Mansion and found Hua Mengdie.
Hua Mengdie said, "I thought you had forgotten. If you didn't come, I was going to send you to Changzhou City."
Lu Xun Huan smiled sheepishly: "Sorry, something delayed me."
Hua Mengdie took out the map of the secret room and handed it to him: "Every step must be precise, don't make a mistake."
"Also, you need to figure out how to get the Fifth Prince's seal and how to avoid the masters guarding the Fifth Prince's mansion."
Lu Xun Huan nodded: "Thank you very much. If there is nothing else, I will leave. I will go to Zixia's house to see her, and then I will go back to Changzhou City."
Hua Mengdie asked, "Just leaving like that?"
Lu Xunhuan said, "Sister Mengdie, do you have any other instructions?"
Hua Mengdie was silent for a while: "Will we be able to meet again in the future?"
Lu Xun Huan said, "I think I can. I'll come to see you again when I complete the mission of the Immortal Ancestor and the world is at peace."
Hua Mengdie nodded: "Okay, I wish you all the best. If you are alive, come to see me. If you die, please send me a dream."
Lu Xunhuan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll turn into a butterfly and enter your dream."
After leaving Hua Mansion, Lu Xunhuan went straight to the General's Mansion.
The soldier guarding the gate of the general's mansion saw him and said, "Master Zhizunbao, the general is waiting for you, please come in quickly."
Lu Xunhuan nodded and went into the mansion.
When he arrived at the reception room, Zixia saw him and quickly stood up: "Supreme Treasure, come quickly."
Lu Xunhuan had already spotted General Lin Yun, and he quickly bowed and saluted, "Hello, General."
Lin Yun stood up, walked up to him, and looked him over. "You and Zixia, what are you doing running around like that?"
Lu Xunhuan said, "Help her break through."
Zixia took over the conversation: "Well, Dad, I didn't lie to you, did I? You may not believe me, but I broke through to the ninth level of the Qianyuan Realm and became the world's top master. This is a fact."
Lin Yun nodded: "Alright, now that you're back, stay here and use your ninth level Qianyuan Realm strength to help us kill the enemy occasionally."
Zixia shook her head: "No, I won't. Zhizunbao has a lot of things to do in Changzhou City, I have to go and help."
Lin Yun looked at Lu Xunhuan and said, "He can handle his own affairs. If he can help you reach the ninth level of Qianyuan Realm, then his strength must be high. He doesn't need your help."
Zixia pouted and said, "Why don't you need my help? I have to... I have to keep an eye on him. I can't let another woman take him away."
Lin Yun stroked his beard and said, "You mean, he's my future son-in-law?"
Zixia raised her face and said, "Anyway...anyway, I'm with her..."
Lu Xunhuan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Auntie, how can you say such things?
Sure enough, Lin Yun's face darkened.
But after a while of darkness, he did not lose his temper in person.
He turned his back and said, "Do whatever you want. I don't want to bother with you anymore. Let's go. Leave now."
Zixia pulled Lu Xunhuan: "Supreme Treasure, let's go."
Lu Xunhuan saluted Lin Yun and said, "General, Zixia lied to you..."
Zixia covered his mouth and pushed him out: "Let's go, let's go..."
After the two of them left, Lin Yun turned around and said, "You stinky little girl, how dare you lie to your father..."
He sighed, sat down, and said to himself, "But the children have grown up and have their own opinions, right?"
Two days later, at night, Lu Xunhuan brought Zixia and quietly returned to Xialou.
Captain Tajima was sitting right in front of the door.
Seeing the two of them coming back, he got up and turned around: "Backyard."
As the lanterns were lit under the pavilion in the backyard, Qingxia and Pan Long soon arrived.
Captain Ma complained, "Oh, the Supreme Jade..."
Zixia interrupted him: "Stop, Zhizunbao."
Captain Ma said unhappily, "Aiya, auntie, you have too many things to do."
"Okay, okay." Seeing Zixia glaring, he changed his tone and said, "Supreme Treasure, you've been in the North for so many days now. Aren't you still not taking care of the case here?"
Lu Xunhuan asked, "Is the client here to ask for payment?"
Captain Ma said, "What do you think? Master Zhuang is worried that you're taking the money but not contributing, so he came here to ask why he hasn't seen you in so many days."
"Also, the person who is waiting for the case assigned to you later is so impatient that they have sent a maid to inquire about your progress."
Lu Xunhuan asked again: "Anything else?"
Captain Ma said, "Of course there is more. The Seventh Lady of the Fifth Prince's family said she has a case for you and is waiting for you to come back."
Lu Xun Huan stood up: "I'll do it now."
Captain Ma asked, "Where are you going?"
Lu Xun Huan replied, "As for what the client asked me to do later, I'll check it out tonight."
Zixia stood up and chased after him: "Wait for me to go together."
A quarter of an hour later, the two men quietly walked to the outside of the Cheng Mansion's wall, looked around to see if there was anyone around, and jumped into the yard.
Then, Zixia took Lu Xunhuan and headed towards Princess Manman's residence.
It was almost midnight and most people in the mansion were asleep, but the light in Princess Manman's room was still on.
When the two men reached the back window, they heard Princess Manman say, "It's late at night, and he still hasn't come back? Where have you been fooling around again? Let me catch him in the act and castrate him."
Zixia tugged at Lu Xunhuan, signaling him to leave first.
After hearing these words, the two of them quietly retreated.
After jumping out of Cheng's house, Zixia said, "It's impossible to know where Cheng Bufan went tonight. Let's follow him tomorrow night. I know where he works."
Lu Xun Huan said, "How about I leave this matter to you? You help your best friend investigate, and I'll go investigate other cases."
Zixia nodded: "Okay."
The two walked back a bit, and Lu Xun Huan said, "My strength now surpasses everyone else. You go back first, and I'll go test the expert in the Fifth Prince's Mansion."
Zixia warned: "Be careful."
Then, the two of them went their separate ways.
Zixia returned to Xialou, and Lu Xunhuan went to the Fifth Prince's Mansion.
After an incense stick of time, he reached the wall of the Fifth Prince's Mansion, took out a mask to cover his face, and climbed over the wall.
He deliberately walked slowly towards Ye Yayun's residence, wanting to see if the expert from the Fifth Prince's Mansion could find him.
But when he reached Ye Yayun's window, the master didn't move at all.
The light was still on in Ye Yayun's room.
He used some saliva and quietly poked a hole in the window paper.
Ye Yayun was the only one in the room, sitting at the table sorting out a pile of gems.
He flicked the window lightly.
Ye Yayun heard the sound of the window, turned around and looked at the rear window.
Seeing her turn her head, Lu Xunhuan flicked it three times again.
In this way, Ye Yayun knew that someone wanted to see her secretly.
If it was a thief, she would turn her head and the thief would naturally hide.
But the person outside the window not only did not hide, but also played the piano three more times, indicating that it was an acquaintance who wanted to see her.
She turned off the light, walked to the back window, pushed it open, and saw Lu Xunhuan in the blur.
Then he motioned for him to come in quickly.
After Lu Xunhuan jumped in and closed the back window, the room became pitch dark.
Lu Xunhuan asked quietly, "What do you want from me?"
Ye Yayun asked in his ear: "What happened to Elder Zhu and the others? Why were they all killed? Do you know the truth?"
Lu Xun Huan said, "How would I know? That's why you came to me to ask this?"
Ye Yayun said: "I don't know how long I can live. If I die..."
She turned around, took out a small bamboo tube from somewhere, and handed it to Lu Xunhuan in the dark.
"If I die, give this to the leader of the White Crane Sect."
Lu Xun Huan was surprised and said, "You just married into the Fifth Prince's mansion, how can you say such things? Is someone threatening you?"
Ye Yayun said: "Don't worry about it, just do as I say."
She took out two more banknotes and stuffed them into Lu Xunhuan's hands: "Take them, a little gift from me."
This time, Lu Xunhuan did not refuse and accepted the banknote.
Judging from the feel of the banknote, he felt that the denomination of the banknote should be 10,000 taels.
He put the banknote into his arms and asked, "Where did the master in the mansion go?"
Ye Yayun said: "He is my senior brother from the White Crane Sect. Now that the sect is short of people, I asked him to return to the sect. From now on, I will be responsible for the safety of the prince."
Lu Xun Huan nodded: "Okay, I understand. Nothing else, I'm leaving."
Ye Yayun sighed and said, "Actually, there's nothing good about being a prince. The intrigues and deceptions in the court are really exhausting."
She patted his hand and said, "Hurry up and go. The prince is going to take a shower and should be back soon."
Lu Xunhuan instinctively felt that something was wrong with her. Why was she talking about death?
But Ye Yayun was unwilling to say more. Even if he asked her questions, there would be no results.
Besides, since the Fifth Prince was coming soon, he didn't have time to ask.
He stood up: "Take care."
