Chapter 57 Stunning
Hong Luo's news came quickly. Ye Lanzhou couldn't imagine how huge the organization behind Xie Chengyan responsible for collecting intelligence was. The letter came in less than half an hour.
Ye Anyun was taken to Wanhe Tower, and Ye Lanzhou felt uneasy. Wanhe Tower was located in the center of Shangjing City, the most prosperous area, where all kinds of people came and went. She was out of the house to buy clothes, what was she doing there?
While thinking, she did not stop walking towards Wanhe Tower. Before leaving the house, she told Wangshu to keep a close eye on Madam Ye and tell her in time if there was any unusual movement.
Even so, Ye Lanzhou was worried. How could Wangshu tell her? Was he expecting her to run to Wanhe Tower? The only people he could trust in the mansion were Wangshu and Hongluo. There weren't many people there.
She was in a hurry to leave the house, so she didn't say anything more and had to give up.
I hope Madam Ye is in the mansion and doesn’t notice it so quickly.
Ye Lanzhou's access to the Ye Mansion was actually restricted, but the servants couldn't stop her. Her tricks, often used in the marketplace, were quite effective here. She followed Hong Luo and climbed over the wall of the Ye Mansion's backyard. It was late at night, and no one noticed.
The Ye Mansion was eerily quiet, while Wanhe Tower was just beginning to buzz with activity. In the previous dynasty, there was a curfew, so the people had little time for entertainment. But now, things were different. Since the founding of Yin State, the curfew, which had lasted for nearly a century, had been abolished, allowing the people ample time for nightlife and the development of art and culture.
Wanhe Tower is located on Zhuque Street, the most prosperous area in Shangjing. It has restaurants, teahouses, galleries, and all kinds of people. Their origins are unknown, so trouble is inevitable. Therefore, the royal family specially ordered the Nine Gates Admiral to add more people to the Zhuque Street area to ensure peace in the area.
The title of Nine Gates Commander belongs to Xie Chengyan.
Ye Anyun followed the maid out of the Ye Mansion. They originally said they were going to a clothing store on another street, but the maid suddenly said that she wanted to go to Wanhe Tower to pick up the wine that the Ye Mansion had ordered earlier. The order was made a month ago, and Ye Zhixing was still waiting for the good wine to entertain the guests.
After hearing this, Ye Anyun couldn't stop it, so she could only wait outside Wanhe Tower for the old woman to come out.
She saw guests coming and going at the entrance of Wanhe Tower. She recognized several of them. They should be people who worked with her father in the Imperial Hospital. They had changed out of their official uniforms and were now wearing gorgeous clothes, looking like nobles.
There were also a few people wearing black martial arts uniforms. They must be minor officials in the yamen, doing odd jobs for their superiors.
As he was watching, a man suddenly walked out from the entrance of Wanhe Tower. The man was wearing a plain robe, and there was a bit of coldness between his eyebrows and eyes. He seemed a little out of place in such a prosperous area. Seeing that Ye Anyun was just standing at the door and was reluctant to come in, he showed a puzzled expression to Ye Anyun.
His gaze made Ye Anyun's heart skip a beat. She had heard rumors in the market that the owner of Wanhelou was a stunning man, and she was curious about what kind of man could be called "stunning". Seeing him today, it was indeed true.
My face turned red unconsciously.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Lin Yan opened his mouth and asked, "Don't you want to come in?"
Ye Anyun realized that he was talking to her, and quickly waved her hand and said, "Thank you, I'll wait for our servants."
Lin Yan seemed to smile at the corner of his lips, then nodded, turned and left without saying anything.
Ye Anyun stared at Lin Yan's back for a while, and was brought back to her senses by the shout of the waiter in the restaurant. She realized that it seemed a bit impolite of her to do this, so she turned around and stayed in a corner, wondering why the nanny hadn't come out yet?
