Chapter 2126 - 2128: Why Is She Here

"Besides, we’re out to find Yangyang this time, so we should head straight to our destination."

"Alright." Yang Chuxia nodded.

But the hand originally meant for flicking her forehead ended up on her face.

"Ahem..." Lele quickly covered his face and said, "Don’t act like I’m not here. Such intimate gestures are forbidden during travel."

"Pfft..." Yang Chuxia felt awkward; this cheeky kid.

"Zi’an, you’re excellent in many ways, but there’s one thing not so great." Ye Zi’an said wistfully.

"What’s not great?"

"You’re not very tactful. At moments like this, you should either keep quiet or close your eyes."

"..." Lele was speechless; he shouldn’t have asked that question.

Ye Zi’an chuckled; the little fox is clever, but still no match for the big fox.

The carriage quickly arrived outside the city, but there was someone standing far away outside.

"Master, it’s the newly appointed Commander of the Imperial Army." With Luo Linhao away with the troops, the palace’s safety naturally falls to someone else.

"Marquis Ye, the Emperor has asked me to deliver something to you." Holding a wooden box, Ye Yi stepped forward to accept it.

"Thank you, Commander Mo!"

"Just doing my duty. Marquis Ye, may you have a smooth journey! Farewell!"

After Commander Mo left, Ye Zi’an took over the box.

"What’s inside?" Yang Chuxia wondered, could it be a gold tablet or imperial edict?

Ye Zi’an’s journey is for the court, so the Emperor should indeed provide something useful.

"Well, it really is a gold tablet?" Ye Zi’an had already opened the box, and the dazzling gold gleamed.

She had just been imagining it, not expecting it to be true.

"This gold tablet can be used like the Emperor is present, having it will make things much easier in Jiangnan."

Ye Zi’an was quite calm, taking out the plaque and kept it for himself.

From the Capital City to Shandong, the journey was smooth, without encountering any trouble. Plus, they traveled quickly, arriving at Shandong Prefecture City in about ten days.

It was only when they got to Shandong that she encountered an acquaintance.

"How come she is in Shandong?"

Yang Chuxia was curious; the person appearing in the inn was none other than Luo Linfei, who hadn’t noticed them.

"I heard in the Capital that Luo Linfei’s health wasn’t great, that’s why she fainted in the palace. It’s nothing too serious, just requires long-term recuperation. Thus, I heard the Old Master Luo intends to send Luo Linfei to Yunchuan Yunshan. Firstly, for blessings for her late grandmother, and secondly, to recline her health. For this, she received much praise in the Capital, saying Luo Linfei is filial, her health isn’t great but she still goes to pray for her grandmother."

Ye Yi, just like a gossip broker, doesn’t let any news slip past his ears in the Capital.

"But isn’t she supposed to be recuperating? Did the people in the Capital misunderstand her real reason for going to Yunchuan?" Yang Chuxia continued, "More importantly, isn’t the route to Yunchuan different from this one? Why has she come to Shandong?"

Ye Yi snickered upon hearing this, "Lady, do you really believe she’s filial? As far as I know, she almost hates the old madam to death, why would she pray for her?"

"During national mourning, she put herself on display like a flower, then secretly schemed and fainted; how embarrassing was that?" Ye Yi said, "Plus, her reputation was already bad, people in the Capital looked at her with even more disdainful eyes. She’s not stupid, doesn’t she have to find a way to turn around her bad reputation?"
