Legitimate Daughter of the Noble Family - C130

Jin Lan looked at the person in the carriage in shock, and his body froze on the spot.

Along the way, the two Mama s and the two maids were alerted that something was amiss. The curtain of the carriage was lifted high by Jin Lan. Although the situation inside the carriage wasn’t completely exposed, one could clearly see that there was a person inside.

They were so frightened that they were about to cry out in surprise, but when they saw the cold gaze of the people in the carriage, a cold feeling rose from their backs. Even the words that rushed to their mouths were forcefully choked back.

“Get in.”

Her tone was flat and cold without the slightest fluctuation, but when it entered Jin Lan’s ears, it made her feel a trace of anger.

Was he angry? Jin Lan was astounded, but when he met the pair of eyes that were like a cold pond, his thoughts quickly calmed down.

If that old woman who guarded the gate did not discover the banquet when they arrived at the Evergreen Garden, she would definitely feel that something was amiss. In addition to the Old Ancestor’s questioning, perhaps they would admit it as a whole, and at that time, the other party would naturally suspect that they had escaped from the West Gate.

After some thought, Jin Lan turned around and said to the worried crowd, “Get in the car first. He’s not a bad person.”

Yan Ye’s status was too different, she did not know how to explain it to the rest, so he could only say it vaguely.

The four of them saw Jin Lan get into the carriage. They looked at each other before grit their teeth and got in as well. No matter what, they couldn’t let Jin Lan get into the carriage alone with an unfamiliar man.

The treasured carriage of the Residence of Prince of Northern Tranquil Water was extremely spacious. Even though there were six people in it, it still didn’t feel crowded. There was a small and exquisite palace lamp hanging from the ceiling. Although it was not as bright as the lantern outside, it was sufficient to see everyone’s faces.

However, including Jin Lan, a group of five people sat in a straight chair, while Mama Shang and the rest clustered around Jin Lan, staring at Yan Ye’s figure in panic.

After everyone got on the carriage, there was the sound of rustling footsteps. Then the carriage began to move slowly.

Mama Zhu’s eyes lit up as she heard the coachman outside shouting, the nervousness on his face slowly disappeared. Only Mama Shang, Wan Ju and Bi He remained as though they were facing a great enemy.

Yan Ye leaned against the soft cushion, turning his face to face to face with the person with his chest, he glanced at her hand that was on her leg, which was smeared with some moss and mud, and snorted: “Are you mute?”

One night she was afraid, adding the fact that she was worried about Madame SHen, Jin Lan’s heartstrings had long been stretched to the extreme, and now that Yan Ye had lightly said that, they were completely crushed. She suddenly raised her head, and stared at him with embarrassment, annoyance and grievance, asking in a low voice: “Who’s mute?”

Seeing her gradually reddened eyes, Yan Ye frowned, the look in his eyes unconsciously eased up, but when he thought about how this little girl had almost put him in prison, he strangely took a deep breath, shifted his eyes away, and spoke with a heavy voice, “I thought you were intelligent, how come you don’t know that you’ve been dreaming for a long time?”

Jin Lan’s heart skipped a beat. How did he know about what had happened in the mansion?

Suddenly, the image of a red mole with cinnabar at the end of the right eye appeared in his mind. It was Jin Qian!

She suddenly understood, no wonder that ever since she had entered the house, Jin Qian had always been helping her. The words that she had said to wake her up from the life saving porridge, they must have also been ordered by the person in front of her, right?

Who exactly was he? Although this family is only a Marquis Mansion, because of the identity of the old ancestor, the security in the manor is no less than that of an ordinary Duke Palace, and there might even be some who are not inferior to them. However, even with this being the case, he was still able to get his eyes into it. This was most likely not something an ordinary person could do.

Jin Lan couldn’t help but size up Yan Ye who was staring at the curtain. He was wearing an indigo robe with flowing clouds embroidered on the collar and sleeves, and it was also adorned with black ferret hair. A black gold belt was tied around his waist, and on it was hung a piece of jade that looked extremely good.

However, when she looked at his extremely ordinary face, she felt a sense of unease in her heart, as if he shouldn’t have acted like this.

“Hmm?” After waiting for a long time without a sound, Yan Ye slightly tilted his head and met a pair of clear and curious eyes.

Sensing Yan Ye’s gaze on him, Jin Lan instantly lowered his head, his cheeks boiling. Why, why did she keep staring at the man naked? The pink hue of his face, already reddened by the cold weather, deepened. However, she still said in a low voice, “Many thanks for Young Master’s help.”

Yan Ye’s eyes flashed as he looked at the faint redness beside her ears. After a while, he glanced at the servants protecting the little girl and asked indifferently: “Now, what are your plans?”

“Ugh …” “Huh?” Jin Lan lowered his head. When he saw Li Yao’s slightly narrowed cold eyes out of the corner of his eye, his mind immediately cleared up. Only then did he react, blinking his eyes with effort to get rid of the uneasiness in his heart.

“Alright.” Yan Ye replied, his eyes still set on the rosy white face, he slowly clenched his fists, the black pupils becoming denser, after a while, he turned his head, and no longer looked at her.

Although Mama Shang and the rest were not clear about the conflict between Jin Lan and the man who suddenly appeared, but after hearing the words of the two, it was not hard to guess that they could escape successfully, and thus relied on the man’s help.

As a result, although the wariness in everyone’s eyes had yet to fade, it was much less than when they first saw each other.

The carriage belonging to the Prince’s Mansion was originally parked at the back, and there were several other carriages of the male Marquis Mansion blocking in front of them. When they turned around to leave, they actually didn’t attract anyone’s attention.

When they were slightly further away from the Marquis Runan’ Mansion, the carriage suddenly sped up and sped towards the dock.

However, just as they turned the corner of the street, the Western Corner Gate suddenly opened. The wife who was guarding the door just now was pressed down by a few Attendant’s guards as she knelt on the ground with a terrified expression. She anxiously looked at the empty street corner, despair in her eyes.

The horse carriage sped along with the signs of the Residence of Prince of Northern Tranquility hanging on it. The patrolling soldiers of the nine cities did not dare to approach at all, so they naturally arrived at the canal’s pier.

At this time, it was already moonlit and treetop, the dock was brightly lit, people were clamoring, all kinds of ships were anchored in the port, and people were coming and going, it was very lively.

The carriage belonging to the Prince’s Mansion was not a luxurious item that an ordinary person could bear. Coupled with the two horses pulling the carriage, the commoners who were busy on the pier saw it and escaped far away.

The carriage stopped steadily under a awning at the east side of the dock. Yan Ye got off the carriage first, and Wan Ju followed closely behind with Jin Lan in her hand. When everyone got off the carriage, a slender figure walked over.

“Yo, it’s so late. I thought you had an answer to that.” Following the mocking voice, a handsome face appeared in front of everyone.

Other than Yan Ye and Mama Zhu, Jin Lan and the rest revealed strange expressions. The person who came was actually met with a “profiteer” from Xuzhou, the owner of Mixin House, Zhao Danchen!

Yan Ye looked at Zhao Danchen’s smiling face and asked expressionlessly: “Are you ready?”

“Of course.” Zhao Danchen squinted his eyes, and shouted in shock: “Why aren’t you looking, my Mixin House’s signboard is over there! “I have never made any mistakes, but you, on the other hand, were so late. If I had known earlier, I would have stayed in the Drunken Fragrance Inn for just one more moment. Poor old man, looking forward to the day, looking forward to this young master’s song, Manwu, Shuishan …”

Yan Ye’s eyes flashed a little, and he ignored his lacking words, turning to look at the little girl whose expression had gradually faded from shock. “Mixin House is the perfect way to use Yangzhou.”

It turned out that he had already arranged everything in advance.

Jin Lan sniffed at his nose that was a bit stuffy, and for the first time, sincerely gave her a gift. “Thank you.”

Although this was their first meeting, and he almost took his own life away, when he met her again, he recommended the Buddhist Abbot Hui Wu to treat his mother’s poison. Even though it was a trade, he had somehow solved the problem of the Snow Twig.

After carefully calculating, without realizing it, she owed him so many favors, so how was she going to repay him in the future?!

Thinking about it, she made a decision in her heart. As long as Yan Ye needed help in the future, even if she was weak, she would still help with all his might.

Zhao Danchen saw the golden light behind Yan Ye, and a strange glow flashed across his narrow eyes. The corners of his lips curled up, and he stepped forward with a smile: “Miss Ye, long time no see.”

Jin Lan didn’t have the slightest good impression of this hateful evil merchant, but in the end, he had to rely on someone’s boat to return to the Yangzhou. He could only smile and nod, “Indeed, I haven’t seen you for a long time, Boss Zhao.”

“Haha, there is no need for Miss Ye to be so polite.” Zhao Danchen took two steps forward, leaned in front of her, and said with a grin: “As the saying goes, we rely on our parents and friends at home. Why don’t you call me Big Brother Dan Chen and I’ll call you Sister Jinlan?”

When the Mama Shang and the rest heard Zhao Danchen’s words, their expressions darkened. They hurriedly pulled Jin Lan away, afraid that this fellow would cause trouble for their own girl.

Don’t look at Zhao Danchen’s frivolous appearance, he was keenly aware of the cold energy that attacked him from behind. The smile on his face froze for a moment, and then he smiled slightly and said, “Miss Ye, hurry up and board the ship.

Jin Lan was stunned for a moment. He suddenly remembered that there were still pursuers from the Old Ancestor. If he couldn’t find them in the mansion, he would definitely think of the station and dock. He was afraid that he would catch up soon.

Without further ado, she nodded towards Zhao Danchen, then looked at Yan Ye, who walked towards the large boat moored on the eastern side of the river amidst the crowd.

Only when that slender figure disappeared from the bow of the ship did Yan Ye retract his gaze. Without even looking at Zhao Danchen, he turned and got on the carriage. The driver raised his whip and rolled towards the capital.

Zhao Danchen watched as the carriage disappeared into the distance, a complicated look flashing past his eyes, following that, he turned around and shouted to the shop assistant who was still carrying the goods, and also boarded the boat.

After a short while, the ship left the dock and went into the night.

Zhao Danchen arranged three cabins for Jin Lan and the rest, all of them were excellent rooms. Everyone sat inside the cabins, their bodies slightly swaying, giving them the feeling that they were escaping from the world.

As he relaxed, fatigue appeared on his face one after another. Jin Lan rubbed his forehead and sighed, “Everyone is tired tonight. You can all go rest. Let Mama Zhu stay inside the house to guard it.”

Wan Ju and Bi He were a little hesitant. After all, to them, the Mama Zhu was an unfamiliar person. But Mama Shang could tell, Jin Lan wanted to talk to Mama Zhu alone, so she nodded, stood up and called the two out, and closed the cabin door.

Now, all that was left was Jin Lan, who was leaning on the bed, and the nervous Mama Zhu, who was half-sitting on the small Wooden Pellet.

The room instantly quieted down.
