Ji Xingzhi's hands were sore from practicing calligraphy these days.
However, there is another benefit after her hands become sore. Xiao Moyan will rub her hands, so Ji Xingzhi still likes to practice calligraphy, as she can "use public power for personal gain."
Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Moyan spent another seven or eight days in the inn. Although they never left the house, Xiao Moyan would still take Ji Xingzhi to the imperial capital at night to confirm the safety of Xu Chang and others. It would be terrible if Hua Yiyao turned against them.
Fortunately, Hua Yiyao kept his word and did not kill Xu Chang and others.
About two days later, when Ji Xingzhi was practicing calligraphy, he overheard someone talking in the inn, and it was vaguely related to Hua Yiyao. Ji Xingzhi listened carefully and finally understood what was going on.
However, Ji Xingzhi heard it clearly, but was confused.
Putting down the brush in his hand, Ji Xingzhi glanced at Xiao Moyan and repeatedly confirmed: "Uncle, are they talking about Hua Yiyao marrying the eldest daughter of the Xiangfu?"
Xiao Moyan nodded slightly: "Yeah."
Ji Xingzhi frowned, as if talking to herself: "Doesn't Hua Yiyao like Su Yang? Why would he marry the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion? If he marries her, wouldn't the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion become the queen?"
Although he heard Ji Xingzhi's words, Xiao Moyan didn't intend to say anything. He didn't care about these things.
"Uncle, please take me to see Su Yang tonight." Ji Xingzhi said thoughtfully.
Xiao Moyan nodded: "Okay."
At night, Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Moyan were about to go out when a man in black appeared in front of them.
The man in black immediately knelt on one knee when he saw Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Moyan, and said, "Secret Guard Yan Min greets the Sect Master and His Majesty."
After Ji Xingzhi excused Yan Min from his formalities, she asked, "How did you know we were here?"
Yan Min answered honestly, "I was passing by here and heard that a man and a woman had come here. They were of good appearance and temperament. From their description, I guessed they might be the Sect Master and the Prince, so I came to investigate."
Ji Xingzhi nodded, looked at the innkeeper, waiters, and guests lying unconscious behind Yan Min, and twitched his lips slightly: "Is this how you found out?"
Yan Min lowered his head in embarrassment and said, "They wouldn't let me in, so I had no choice but to resort to this last resort."
Ji Xingzhi's mouth twitched fiercely: "I'll be surprised if you're allowed in dressed like this."
Yan Min lowered his head silently and argued softly: "I'm used to it..."
As a secret guard, he always wears tight black clothes, and it is easy to be exposed if he wears clothes of other colors.
Ji Xingzhi held his forehead with his hands, speechless and choked with emotion.
After taking a look at the innocent person lying on the ground, Ji Xingzhi left the remaining silver in his purse on the table and went to the Huazhou Palace with Xiao Moyan and Yan Min.
On the way, Yan Min reported to Ji Xingzhi that Hua Yihen had successfully contacted his former subordinates and was putting pressure on Hua Yiyao. He came to convey the message to Hua Yiyao.
"So fast?" Ji Xingzhi couldn't help but frown. It had only been a dozen days. Hua Yihen didn't have the Emperor's uncle's teleportation ability. How could he have reached Huazhou so quickly, contacted his former subordinates, and even started to put pressure on them?
Unless, rushing day and night...
As expected, Yan Min replied, "Prince Xun hardly slept and ate very little along the way."
Ji Xingzhi nodded slightly, and couldn't help but admire Hua Yihen's physique and perseverance.
With Yan Min following them, Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Moyan's speed slowed down a lot. Ji Xingzhi couldn't help but glance at Yan Min with some dissatisfaction for slowing them down.
