Chapter 392 Something seems strange!

Even if there are people who admire Liao Jiu, they will try to hinder them. If the Liao family finds out in advance, they will definitely dislike them. In short, before the situation in the capital is clear, they should be as cautious as possible.

Liao Jiu left, but Xiang Zuo was still there, and he successfully passed the security check with the carriage and guards.

The carriage that Jiang Lianzhu and the others were in was exempted from inspection because Xiang Zuo gave the reason that they were important witnesses and distinguished guests of the Six Gates.

When the three snow wolves were being examined, Xiang Zuo said they were newly-raised wolfhounds from the Six Gates, and were intended to be used specifically for tracking and solving crimes, so they were also released without any problems.

The two golden eagles did not accompany them. They waited until dark, and then, with Chengfeng leading the way, they could fly directly to the Six Gates as they were familiar with the route.

On the way, Liao Jiu dispatched elite soldiers from various cities, but when they got off the boat, he let them return by boat along the same route. He did not take them to the capital, because they would be of no use once they arrived in the capital.

Now there are only the shadow guards from the Six Gates, Jiang Lianzhu and her mother and son, and three snow wolves.

The capital city was prosperous. Along the way, countless people's eyes were on the carriage where Jiang Lianzhu was. After bypassing the walled city, it was still crowded. It took more than an hour to reach the Six Gates.

As night falls, the lights come on.

The carriage did not stop at the main gate, but went straight into the inner courtyard from the side door and stopped at the courtyard where Liao Jiu lived.

Xiang You had already been waiting here, ready for everything.

Jiang Lianzhu got off the carriage and came to the right to greet him, "Hello, Doctor Jiang, welcome, welcome. Dabao, Erbao, and Nanbao, you must have had a hard journey."

He had already received the letter. The master wanted them to stay temporarily in the courtyard where he lived. Considering the master's intentions, how could he not guess something?

Extra enthusiastic.

Maybe in the future, it won't be a temporary stay, but a permanent one. Jiang Lianzhu jokingly said, "I'm meeting an old friend again... Is my autumn pear paste delicious?"

I bought ginseng from her on the left and autumn pear paste from her on the right...

They are all old acquaintances.

Xiang You smiled and said, "It's delicious. I'm still savoring it. Doctor Jiang is very talented. I admire him."

Jiang Lianzhu rolled her eyes at him rudely.

He laughed loudly to the right, "Doctor Jiang, please come in. Let me introduce you. My courtyard is usually not occupied. It's only for when our master is not home. You can stay here for a while. The master has asked you to stay here temporarily. I have cleaned up three rooms in the left wing. If that's not enough, I will have someone clean up the rooms in the right wing as well..."

"No need, that's enough." There were only four of them, Jiang Lianzhu and her family, mother and son, plus Nanny Cheng.

It was enough for her and Nanbao to live in one room, Dabao and Erbao to live in one room, and Nanny Cheng to live in one room.

The three snow wolves can just lie down in the yard.

When you are away from home, there is no need to be so particular.

Xiang You continued, "Everything in the room was recently purchased. We don't have any maids or nannies here. Everything was purchased by the masters. I don't know if you, Doctor Jiang, would like it. There is a separate kitchen in the yard with all the necessary supplies. Doctor Jiang, do you think you should hire some maids, servants, and cooks? If you need them, I'll come tomorrow..."

"No, thank you." Jiang Lianzhu refused without thinking.

First, I'm not used to it, and second, there are too many people around, so it's unnecessary.

"Okay, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. We are old acquaintances anyway. No need to be polite, as long as you agree." Xiang You smiled brightly.

No one is better at making friends than him.

Except for Nanbao, who is also a match.

Nanbao said, "Uncle, I don't know you yet. When did you become acquaintances with us?"

Xiang You smiled and said, "Oh, little girl, I know you. My last name is Xiang and my given name is You."

"Oh, Uncle Zuo, Uncle You! Your names are so easy to remember. Who picked them for you?"

Xiang You was about to proudly say, "Our Governor..." But Nan Bao added, "They're as easy to remember as our Xue Da and Xue Er..."

To the right...something seems weird!

Is this little girl mocking their names, which are as casual as Snow Wolf's?

He must be overthinking it.

After some chatting and laughing, Xiang You led them into the house. After everything was arranged, he and Xiang Zuo left and went outside to talk.

Jiang Lianzhu and the others looked around the room.

The carved beams and painted buildings, and the low-key furnishings are many times more upscale than the houses in their Shili Town.

If ordinary people saw it, they would naturally be amazed. But they just glanced at it casually. Even Madam Cheng did so. It was obvious that she had seen a lot of the world.

After assigning rooms and packing their luggage, Jiang Lianzhu went to the kitchen to fetch some water for them to wash up. They were all dusty and dirty from the long journey, so she washed the cubs first.

Anyway, let's wait for Liao Jiu to come back and have dinner together.

Nanny Cheng wanted to help fetch water, but Jiang Lianzhu wouldn't let her. She never let her help with heavy physical work and only asked her to collect and pick things up. Nanny Cheng had to travel a lot along the way because she was old and seriously ill, and it was already very hard for her.

She said she asked them to bring her to the capital, and now they are here.

She didn't say she wanted to leave, so she'd wait a few days and see. If she didn't leave, she'd ask about her situation again.

The yard was quiet, without a single person in sight.

The street lights and corridor lights are all on, brightly lit.

In the small kitchen, hot water was already boiling in the stove, but no one was there.

There were also three dog houses that looked like they were made temporarily. They were filled with clean water and a few pounds of fresh meat. Xueda and the dogs were already happily eating.

Just looking at this quiet courtyard, it has nothing to do with an institution as powerful as the Six Gates.

It's like a cozy inn or a good family's backyard.

After a while, two golden eagles came back from the darkness, fluttering in the air. Even in the heavy snow, they were still guarding their food, afraid that the eagles would steal their food. As a result, the two eagles didn't even look at their food bowls. They were well fed in the wild mountains, eating delicious food and didn't even look down on the farmed pork in their food bowls...

The two of them were squatting on a large tree branch in the yard. They also had their own nest on the branch, which was a large hanging basket, one for each of them.

Chengfeng was already used to it, so he flew in familiarly and took a rest.

Jifeng cooed for a while and tried several times before he nervously got into another hanging basket. At first he was not used to it and the basket was shaking. His little eyes were wide open. But when he saw Chengfeng was motionless and not afraid, he endured it. After a while, he felt very comfortable with the shaking and squatted inside, unwilling to move.
