Chapter 406 Burning

"Prepare the medicine first. We'll talk about other actions after we can contact father and mother." Yoyo's little face was calm. They definitely couldn't fall out now.

We must not let the Marquis’ Mansion know that my father and mother are here.

Otherwise, they would not be able to resist the siege of so many guards in the city.

"Yeah." Jinzhi nodded, and was very appreciative in her heart. She didn't expect that a five-year-old child was so meticulous. He was worthy of being the child of the Sect Master and Prince Jin.

The two little guys are very smart and quick to react.

night.

Jinzhi left the small courtyard only after she had taken care of Youyoubaoer to sleep.

Huangfu Xin gave her a rule, requiring her to go to her yard every day and report to her about the situation of the two children.

On the way.

She has been thinking about how to contact the leader.

It is obvious that kites and Kongming lanterns are not very useful. They are so high that they cannot deliver anything they want to deliver.

Arrived at the yard.

She went straight to Huangfu Xin's room.

The nanny at the door saw her and led her in directly.

"I have seen you, young lady." Jinzhi bowed respectfully.

"Have they been obedient today?" Huangfu Xin asked with a smile. She didn't know when their family would be able to enter the capital in style.

She is obviously talented, beautiful and knowledgeable, but she can only stay in Xian'an City.

She also wants to stay in the capital.

She can shine like other noble ladies. With her talent, she can enter the Eastern Palace and become the Crown Princess, and even the Empress in the future.

But the Zhenbei Marquisate had to stay in Yan'an City from generation to generation to guard the northern border for the Qin State.

"The young prince and the little princess are very obedient. Today I heard them saying that they missed their father and mother very much, and they also said, said..." Jinzhi deliberately paused.

Huangfu Xin really perked up. "What else do you want to say?"

Jinzhi whispered, "She said she wanted to climb over the wall and go back to the capital."

Huangfu Xin smiled, her jade-like face full of contempt and disdain, "As expected of a child, so naive, even if they leave the Marquis' Mansion, they can't get out."

The city gates are closed.

No matter how capable they are, they can't get out.

"Don't worry, Miss. The young prince and the little princess are still young. They can't escape from Xian'an City." Jinzhi flattered her.

"That being said, you still have to keep a close eye on them. Even if they say naive things, you have to report to me." Huangfu Xin said seriously.

"Yes, I understand." Jinzhi said respectfully.

"Go down."

"I'll take my leave."

After seeing her go out, Huangfu Xin looked at the maid next to her and asked, "Is there something wrong with her?"

"I don't see any problem. Every time I go out, I buy all kinds of delicious food for the young master and the little princess, and when I get home I play with them." Ye Zhi reported.

"She wouldn't dare to do that, but we still have to keep a close eye on her when she leaves the house. We can't let our guard down." There was an icy chill in Huangfu Xin's eyes. The arsonist had not been found yet.

That fire was definitely not simple.

"Yes." Ye Zhi said seriously.

…

The next day.

After serving breakfast to Youyou Baoer, Jinzhi left the mansion to buy things as usual. After arriving at a pastry shop, she started to pick and choose.

Then a staff came over to introduce new products to her.

Jinzhi selected several items. With her back to the door, she handed the folded paper to the other party and then went to the counter to pay.

Out of the bakery.

She went to several other restaurants and bought different meats every day. After buying everything, she slowly returned home, knowing that someone was following her.

It seems that Huangfu Xin still doesn't trust her.

Tongfu Inn.

Baihu quickly returned to the room with the origami that Jinzhi gave him. She told him that Xue Miaoyin could be trusted, and asked them to find a way to fly kites and release Kongming lanterns.

Remember to draw a big symbol on the Kongming lantern.

Symbols have shapes on paper.

They said they were delivering a message to the sect leader, so they must be outside the city.

Baihu was very excited and immediately went to find Xue Miaoyin and showed her the paper that Jinzhi gave him. After all, she was one of his own and he didn't need to be cautious.

Xue Miaoyin breathed a sigh of relief after reading it.

Jinzhi said in the letter that Yoyo and Baoer are doing well and she is now taking care of them closely.

"Let's go release Kongming lanterns tonight. You can go out and buy some now and find a place to quietly release them at night." Xue Miaoyin made a decision immediately.

Thinking that their cousin and his wife were already outside the city, they had to pass on a message to them. With their intelligence, they could definitely tell what the Kongming lantern was trying to convey.

After all, the city gate was closed and we couldn't get out.

"Okay, I'll take people to look for it." Baihu said seriously.

"Okay, I'll take people to find a hidden place." Xue Miaoyin said softly. Although the city gates were closed, it was still relatively free in the city.

Baihu nodded, turned and walked outside.

Xue Miaoyin immediately called Danqing out. The letter also said that they needed drugs to make people faint, so she had to buy some and get some poison for them at the same time.

…

The night is pitch black.

Nan Jiao, Zhan Beiheng and others hid in the woods near the city gate, waiting for an opportunity. They had been observing the city gate for the past two days.

The guards on the tower were always there, and even when they changed shifts, they would wait until the next group of people arrived.

"We'll act according to the plan later." Nan Jiao looked at Mo Li and said, she didn't want to wait any longer, so she had to find a way to sneak into the city tonight.

"Don't worry, Princess. We've got this in mind!" Mo Li patted his chest and said, they will do their best to give them a chance.

Nan Jiao looked at Zhan Beiheng and said, "Let's go."

Zhan Beiheng nodded and led her outside.

Sudden.

"Master and Princess, look, there are so many Kongming lanterns." Mo Li said loudly when he saw the Kongming lanterns suddenly floating in the sky.

Nan Jiao looked up and saw one Kongming lantern after another.

Her heart skipped a beat.

Was it Jinzhi and Baihu who put it there to convey a message?

It seemed that they were doing well in Xian'an City. Faintly, in the light of the fire, she seemed to see the symbol. They should have met.

"They were the ones who released it. Let's hurry up." Nan Jiao held Zhan Beiheng's hand tightly.

“Okay.” Zhan Beiheng’s frown relaxed. It seemed that they were all good people, otherwise there would be no chance to release the Kongming lanterns.

The two of them took advantage of the night and ran towards the dark area on the left side of the city gate.

On the city tower.

The torches were burning brightly, illuminating the entire city tower. All the guards were alert and on duty, not daring to slack off at all.

After all, this time, they are going to follow the Huangfu family to do something big.

It worked.

They will have a prominent status in the future.

If they lost, the worst that could happen was that they would lose their lives. Moreover, they all believed in the Zhenbei Marquisate. After all, their ancestors all followed the Huangfu family.

"Look, are the trees over there on fire?" Suddenly, a guard pointed into the distance and shouted.

Everyone looked over.

It was pitch black at night, but because of the burning over there, they could see clearly that there was indeed a fire.

"Why did the fire start out of nowhere?"

"Someone must have set the fire on purpose."

"You four go out and take a look." At this time, a middle-aged man in general's uniform said in a deep voice, his brows tightly knitted.

If the fire was left unchecked, it would surely spread toward the city gate.

Although there are no trees here, there is dry grass on the ground.
