Chapter 188 Traitor



"There is a traitor among the Wing King."

After a pause, Yang Zhao added: "In Yinfeng Mountain, be careful of ambushes, Fire Thunder."

In her previous life, King Yi was ambushed by bandits on her way back to the capital, falling off a cliff and breaking both legs. Later, she heard rumors that the ambush took place on Yinfeng Mountain, a must-pass place on the way back to the capital, and that the bandits seemed to have used fire bombs...

Because there wasn't much interaction in our previous lives.

Yang Zhao didn't know much, he just heard Xia Ying talk about it in her spare time.

It was said that there was a traitor around King Yi at that time!

She doesn't know the details.

However, in this life, Emperor Wenyuan issued the decree to recall King Yi much earlier. Perhaps the incident of bandits in the previous life would not happen this time, but the letter was placed in front of him, so he reminded him.

King Yi returned safely.

This can be considered as repaying the favor of King Yi in collecting the corpse in his previous life!

But she didn't know.

The team returning to the capital from the Imperial Temple had quickened their pace and was now almost at Yinfeng Mountain...

Finish writing the volume.

"alright!"

Yang Zhao handed the rolled-up paper to Wen Liang.

Wen Liang took it with a smile.

After skillfully stuffing it into a special black small tube, he turned around and put it into a small drawer behind him.

Boom.

Very quietly.

But Yang Zhao still heard it, and the cork seemed to roll and fall.

It's a culvert...

Yang Zhao's eyes flickered, but he didn't show it on his face. He asked, "Boss, based on what you just said, if I want to send a letter from the capital to the Imperial Temple at dawn tomorrow morning, how much money would it cost?"

Wen Liang was slightly stunned.

She actually knew that the master went to the Imperial Temple?

Could it be that the master told him?

Wen Liang thought about it for a moment, then smiled more sincerely at Yang Zhao and said, "If it were anyone else, a letter would cost a hundred gold coins, but since you have our Pavilion Master's jade pendant, I can give you three for free."

The black crows they cultivated cannot be used at will.

But there are always exceptions.

Hundreds of gold?

A letter costs a hundred gold coins, which is really expensive.

However... the speed is indeed much faster than her own channel...

Yang Zhao took out a few banknotes from his pocket and placed them on the counter: "Manager Wen, three more sheets of letter paper."

This means she has three more letters to send.

Wen Liang glanced at the banknotes on the counter, smiled and took out three pieces of letter paper and a small plug from under the counter, and then pushed the banknotes back: "Three times for free, I still have the final say."

Yang Zhao didn't take it back. He picked up the pen, ink and letter paper and walked to the table in the corner.

After writing, put it into the plug tube.

One letter was sent to Huaibei City.

One letter was sent to Yujiang.

The last letter was sent to Yongcheng in the north.

When leaving Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion, I still left the banknotes behind. Why owe so-called "favors" when money can get you what you want?!

"Miss."

As soon as she walked out of West Street, a carriage stopped in front of her.

"Uncle Chen, go back."

"yes."

After Yang Zhao got on the carriage, he closed his eyes and rested, but what he was thinking about was what was going to happen next.

The Shen family was imprisoned.

The eighth prince was recalled.

It seems that everything is going according to plan.

But for some reason, she always felt a vague uneasiness in her heart. She felt that she must have forgotten something, or there must be something she didn't know yet...

"Whoa!"

Suddenly, the carriage stopped abruptly.

Yang Zhao opened his eyes and was about to ask Uncle Chen about the situation outside when he heard a soft and familiar voice coming from outside.

“Sister-in-law…”

A small courtyard.

"Eat slowly."

Yang Zhao looked at the girl in front of him who was eating voraciously and picked up a piece of food for her with his chopsticks.

Shen Nian ate anxiously.

She threw all the etiquette and rules out of her mind.

She was so hungry.

When the men of the Shen family were arrested and imprisoned, Shen Nian realized that something was wrong. She hurriedly packed up her belongings and escaped through the dog hole in the backyard. Sure enough, the Shen family was soon surrounded by soldiers.

But before she could rejoice in her escape, she met a group of beggars who dragged her into an alley and robbed her of all the money she had brought with her. Fearing of being caught, she did not dare to report to the police, nor did she even dare to shout for help.

that's all.

She hid for several days.

When I was so hungry that I was seeing stars, I saw Uncle Chen.

She knew that Uncle Chen was Yang Zhao's groom, and that Yang Zhao must be in the carriage, so she threw herself in front of the carriage like a mad woman...

After a while.

Shen Nian finally recovered.

After putting down her chopsticks, she wanted to throw herself into Yang Zhao's arms.

“Sister-in-law…”

"Sixth Miss, your hands and mouth are covered in grease. You'd better clean them up first." Dong Shuang stood in front of Shen Nian, stopping her from throwing herself into Yang Zhao's arms, and handed her a handkerchief.

Shen Nian froze.

Her face flushed, not sure if it was out of shame or embarrassment.

But on the surface, she still took it obediently. After wiping it, she looked at Yang Zhao with watery eyes: "Sister-in-law..."

"Sixth Miss."

"Our young lady is unmarried. It's inappropriate for you to call her sister-in-law." Dong Shuang said again expressionlessly.

Shen Nian choked.

She knew about the Dengwengu incident.

I also know about the emperor's decree, but...this good sister-in-law is gone just like that? She is the Duke of Qi Yang, the Princess of a County, and has so much money...

But looking at Dongshuang's gloomy face.

And Yang Zhao's non-objection and indifferent expression from beginning to end made Shen Nian's heart feel like it was falling into an icy cave.

"Sister-in-law, sister..."

Shen Nian changed her words, but tears fell out.

As for why she was crying, I'm afraid she knew it in her heart.

Yang Zhaofeng calmly picked up the teacup and sipped it gently, without showing any attitude towards her crying.

"elder sister!"

Seeing that Yang Zhao didn't coax her, Shen Nian cried for a while and then couldn't cry anymore.

Her heart couldn't help but become nervous. She had dared to come to Yang Zhao because she relied on the love he had shown her over the past six years. But now it seemed that Yang Zhao was really heartbroken by the Shen family...

Will she be angered?

Shen Nian only thought of this problem at this time.

She looked at Yang Zhao nervously and cautiously: "Sister, will you abandon me? Will you send me back?"

"Won't."

Indeed not.

After all, the next plan still requires her...

"Sister, then I..."

"You can stay here first."

Yang Zhao put down the teacup, raised his head slightly and looked at her, his voice calm but gentle: "Chen Nian, although I hate the Shen family, you and I have been friends for six years after all..."

"Sister, I will be obedient. From now on, I will do whatever you say. I will listen to you." Shen Nian hurriedly expressed her loyalty and almost stood up and raised her hand to swear.

This look... is very similar to Shen Li back then.
