Chapter 650: Master



Chapter 650: Master

Early the next morning, Zhong Nianyao and Lu Yichen left the inn after breakfast.

Taking Lu Yichen with her, Zhong Nianyao went straight to the suburbs.

Unlike last time, now that she has figured out where she is, Zhong Nianyao is familiar with the place.

After arriving in the suburbs, they found a secret place. Zhong Nianyao directly took Lu Yichen's hand and teleported to a place.

After arriving at the place, Lu Yichen looked around and said, "Where is this——"

"This is where I used to live." Zhong Nianyao looked at the small wooden house not far away, then glanced at the surrounding flowers, plants and trees, a trace of nostalgia flashed in her eyes, "When I was little, my master and I lived here."

Although the cabin had become dilapidated and was surrounded by trees and weeds, giving it a desolate look, in her heart, it was still her former home.

Zhong Nianyao took the lead and walked forward to the cabin. She took a deep breath, stretched out her hand, and pushed open the door.

The cabin had been uninhabited for so long that it was in a dilapidated state. When the door was pushed open, a creaking sound was heard, which was a bit harsh.

As soon as you open the door, you can see that the tables, chairs and other things inside are all covered with a thick layer of dust.

Lu Yichen followed Zhong Nianyao in and said, "Let's clean up!"

"No." Zhong Nianyao shook her head and couldn't help but sigh, "I just wanted to bring you here to see it. Even if we clean it up now, it will soon become dilapidated again. Besides, after we find Zhong Mingxin, we won't have a chance to come back once we leave here!"

Lu Yichen didn't say anything, just looked at Zhong Nian Yao quietly.

After looking around, Zhong Nianyao quickly took Lu Yichen away.

She had thought she would be thrilled to be in this cabin again. But the reality was different. Everything seemed like a lifetime ago. Although she still missed her master dearly, those days were slowly fading away in her memory.

After leaving the cabin, Zhong Nianyao brought Lu Yichen to the back. There was a small mound of earth, and around it were many flowers and trees. Although lush, they did not look messy.

Lu Yichen took a look and immediately saw the key point, "There is a formation in here!"

"Yes!" Zhong Nianyao nodded. "This is my master's grave. Before he died, he specifically told me not to erect a tombstone for him. Besides, I don't even know his name."

"I've always just called him Master, and haven't met many outsiders. He usually comes back from out shopping. When he passed away, he said that death is like the extinguishing of a light, leaving no trace, so he told me not to erect a tombstone. If I really want to be filial to him, I can plant some beautiful flowers and trees in front of his grave, so that he will feel better even if he rests in this place forever."

"After that, I looked through the books left by my master, and found this formation. I gathered a small amount of the surrounding spiritual energy here, and then allowed these flowers, plants and trees to continue to grow well. This way, I can also accompany my master."

"You and Master have a truly deep bond!" Lu Yichen exclaimed. "Even now that you've recovered your memory, you still call him Master."

From every word Zhong Nianyao said, he could tell that Zhong Nianyao really respected this master.

"Yes!" Zhong Nianyao nodded, "Maybe it's because he really loves me! I brought you to see Master today, just to let Master see what kind of man I'm looking for. This way, Master can feel at ease even down there."

Lu Yichen nodded, then turned and looked at the little mound, his expression becoming particularly serious. "Master, don't worry, I will take care of Yao'er."

Zhong Nianyao also looked at the small mound, her eyes full of nostalgia, "Master, look, I have found someone to accompany me for the rest of my life. Seeing me happy, you should be able to rest assured."

The two stood hand in hand, and even if they were just standing there, one could see how handsome and elegant they both were.

Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao stood there tightly together, neither of them spoke, but they both understood each other's thoughts.

After a long time, the two left.

For the next two days, Zhong Nianyao and Lu Yichen wandered around the capital, experiencing the customs and culture of the Kingdom of Li.

It was not until early in the morning of the third day that Nanny Qiu sent someone to the inn to invite them both.

Zhong Nianyao was not surprised at all that Nanny Qiu knew which inn they were staying in.

She and Lu Yichen were not able to hide their whereabouts. If Changsheng Palace couldn't even find such a small matter, how could she ask them for help in finding Zhong Mingxin!

This time the meeting was not held in Baoyi Building, but in a private room of a teahouse.

When I pushed the door open, I saw Aunt Qiu already waiting there.

Upon seeing Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao arrive, Nanny Qiu immediately stood up and said, "Sir and Madam, you are here! Please take a seat!"

Lu Yichen and Zhong Nian Yao did not leave their names, so until now, Nanny Qiu did not know their names and could only call them Master and Madam.

The guide was also very discerning and left the room quickly. Before leaving, he even considerately closed the door.

Soon, the three people in the room were seated.

Nanny Qiu attentively poured a cup of tea for Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao before speaking, "Madam, the person you asked me to find has now been found."

"It's at Princess Mingyue's mansion, right?" Zhong Nian Yao said lightly.

The sudden interruption startled Madam Qiu for a moment, then she nodded. "Yes, it seems Madam has guessed it. Ten years ago, just after the drought ended, the Emperor led the royal family to Yong'an Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings."

"On the way back, Princess Mingyue picked up an injured man. After that, the man stayed in the Princess's mansion. However, it is said that Princess Mingyue likes this man very much and keeps a close eye on him. Therefore, not many people have seen his true face."

"We spent a lot of manpower and resources to get the chance to meet that man. He looks similar to the portrait you gave me, but he looks a little older than the portrait. We have confirmed that he is the person you are looking for."
