Imperial Plot - C317 Town
The Zhong Miao Yi didn’t go to Tang Yao’s place. Instead, she went straight back to her own courtyard. Even when she sat down inside, she was still unable to calm herself down.
She did it. She really did it. Finally, she could refuse against Tang Yao.
Since she had taken this step, then every step that followed would seem relaxed and natural.
She didn’t regret making such a decision. So what if she met up with Tang Yao? Other than leaving a clue, there was nothing else that could be solved.
Zhong Miao Yi took a deep breath and said to Ah Jiu, “Quick, bring Precious Tree here.”
Until now, she could only feel a trace of security while hugging Zhong Jiming.
Ah Jiu quickly carried Zhong Jiming over. He used his face to rub against Zhong Jiming’s soft face, and smelled the nice smell of his milk. Slowly, his mood calmed down.
Bell stood at the side and helped Zhong Miao Yi tidy up her clothes, “Empress, if we leave tomorrow, what will we wear? All they brought were skirts, and. It’s not going to get out on the street. ”
“Ban Qiu will solve all these problems, don’t worry.” Ban Qiu must have known that Zhong Miao Yi did not have clothes that she could wear, so she would definitely have made preparations in advance. Zhong Miao Yi was not worried about this.
Bell stopped his movements and looked at Zhong Miao Yi. “Empress, are we really going tomorrow? Really. Don’t you need to bring me and Aunt Ah Jiu along? ”
“Ban Qiu can protect me.” This was Zhong Miao Yi’s answer, she just wanted to go out and relax, there was no need to go with Bell and Ah Jiu, the formation was just too big.
Ban Qiu knew that she could not protect Zhong Miao Yi in the palace. As someone who had achieved great things, he had to plan and control the entire situation, but he could not do it alone. The Zhong Miao Yi needed the help of someone with courage and scheming.
Coincidentally, Ban Qiu happened to know of such a person.
There was a very mysterious family in the martial arts world. This family had always had its own set of unwritten rules and also had its own clan’s tacit understanding.
This strategist clan was divided into the main clan and the outer clan, and the biggest characteristic was that they didn’t have to marry other clans.
A few years ago, this clan suddenly disappeared without a trace in the martial arts forest. Ban Qiu and the clan leader were best friends, so they went to find out about this matter.
But the complexity of this matter had far exceeded Ban Qiu’s imagination. It was only on the winter of last year that he found the final successor of this family.
Ban Qiu did not tell Zhong Miao Yi that he was bringing her to see the final successor of her clan.
This young miss was famous when she was twelve years old. At that time, the family of advisors was in the prime of their life. But once a family was too well-known, countless people wanted to eliminate them. This was the martial arts world.
That young miss had been hiding in the depths of the family ever since she became famous. For some reason, she had never shown her face again.
Ban Qiu brought Zhong Miao Yi out tomorrow quietly to visit the young miss of the fallen strategist’s family.
The Zhong Miao Yi was resting well, and on the morning of the second day, Su Zeyi and the rest left the palace. Ban Qiu went to the fork in the road in front and called for a carriage, speaking of the nearest town, the carriage driver.
Along the way, the horse carriage driver continued to drive while talking to Ban Qiu and the others, “Does this master wish to go to the town to gather some things?”
Ban Qiu laughed: “Bring my sister to relax.”
The coachman nodded, “You two are right to come. There is a joyous occasion in the town today, and it will start at noon. It’s just right that we should go now.”
When the Zhong Miao Yi heard this, he asked curiously, “Oh? “How can there be any happy events at this time?”
The coachman laughed out loud, “Lady, you don’t know this, ah. Today, the richest man in town, Sage Zhang, is competing for his daughter’s hand in marriage. I think this lord is not bad. That girl is very pretty.”
Zhong Miao Yi laughed and pushed Ban Qiu: “I think so too, we should go and try!”
Ban Qiu frowned: “Stop messing around, no matter what you try, I won’t be able to make it to the clan! “Come on.”
After entering the small town, the coachman took a few turns and refused to leave, “Miss, you can go directly from here to there. If you are not allowed to enter the horse carriage, then I will have to trouble you to go by yourself.”
This was rather strange. Why didn’t they let the horse carriage go on a good road?
“Why is that?” Zhong Miao Yi lifted the curtain. As expected, there were no carriages on the road ahead, and even very few people walked in and out.
The carriage driver straightforwardly helped Zhong Miao Yi up, and helped her down, not going into details. He glanced at Ban Qiu, who probably knew about it, and passed the silver over to the carriage driver: “Thank you very much.”
The Zhong Miao Yi was in no hurry to ask Ban Qiu what was going on. The driver saw so much silver and kept saying that she wouldn’t need so much, but Ban Qiu insisted that he take it. She wanted him to come here and wait for them at dusk.
The coachman was beaming with joy. This piece of silver was almost enough to cover several months of his income. After repeatedly agreeing to it, he went off to find a place to spend his time. He would return here in the evening.
Ban Qiu stretched out her hand towards Zhong Miao Yi and an alley was right behind him. Ban Qiu smiled and said, “Let’s go.”
This street must have been abandoned. Along the way, all the doors were closed.
When they finally reached the end of the hall, Zhong Miao Yi saw that the mansion was extremely dilapidated and probably haven’t been repaired for many years. She glanced at Ban Qiu and asked, “Where is this place?”
Ban Qiu replied: “I’ll bring you to meet someone. She is a very powerful person, if you bring her back to the palace, she can help you. “She’s a bit inconvenient.”
Zhong Miao Yi was stunned, she did not know why Ban Qiu said that, what did it mean that it was inconvenient? What does it mean to be strong? Why did Ban Qiu say that she could help him?
However, Ban Qiu was not ready to answer these questions. He went forward and knocked on the door.
The Zhong Miao Yi waited for a good while before she could not help but ask: “Is there anyone in the Palace?”
Ban Qiu nodded with conviction: “There are others too, I just don’t know if that girl went out or not.”
The Zhong Miao Yi no longer spoke and quietly waited. Ban Qiu went up and knocked on the door again, and this time even he herself frowned as she muttered: “At this time, it should be at home.”
The Zhong Miao Yi tugged on Ban Qiu’s sleeves: “How about we go somewhere else for now, and come over later. I’m afraid no one is around right now.”
Just as Zhong Miao Yi finished speaking, she heard the sound of the door opening and her heart skipped a beat. She didn’t know why, but she was feeling a bit nervous.
