If one were to follow a character setting, Bai Yuheng did not adhere to the character setting of a flower on the mountain top. Instead, when no one was around, she acted like a jealous fox.
She had been puzzled before. Bai Yuheng, as the heroine's white moonlight, occupied a lot of space in the original book, but after getting to know him, she found that his personality was not as clear and noble as described in the novel.
Or is it enough to just maintain your personality in front of the heroine?
Yu Nian hid this thought in her heart, took a shower and changed into fresh clothes.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw three men in the living room.
Seeing Yu Nian coming out, everyone's eyes fell on her.
Han Chen was standing at the door. Seeing Yu Nian coming out, he immediately asked, "Niannian, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling any discomfort?"
Although Bai Yuheng told him that Yu Nian was fine, he still wanted to hear Yu Nian tell him in person.
"It's okay, I feel much better." Yu Nian patted his shoulder, signaling him not to worry.
"I'm glad you're okay," Pei Ling leaned against the table, looking at Yu Nian with dark eyes, seemingly without any emotion.
"By the way, does anyone else know what I just did?" Yu Nian asked.
Han Chen shook his head. "The eldest princess almost came here, but General Pei fooled her."
Yu Nian lowered her eyes, the pure white space that just seemed like a dream flashing through her mind. "General Pei, what has the Imperial Sister been doing recently?"
Pei Ling told Yu Nian truthfully what his subordinates had recently reported.
"General Pei, why don't you assign some of your men to the Imperial Sister? Maybe she'll make some unexpected discoveries."
Yu Nian thought that as long as she did not interfere with the plot, the highlights and the plot originally belonging to Yu Zhaozhao would not be tampered with. What the result would be could only be seen this time.
As for the matter about the black shadow, Yu Nian suddenly thought of someone.
Ye Luo's beast form is a snake beast. As a villain, his suspicion will naturally increase further.
"Han Chen, ask someone to check whether Ye Luo is in the palace now. If he is, he can be ruled out as a suspect..." But she couldn't think of anyone else except Ye Luo who would go to such great lengths to target herself and Han Chen.
She had already made up her mind not to fight against the villain anymore, but she didn't expect that the plot would actually go in the same direction as before.
Is this the irresistible force of world consciousness?
"Your Highness, Ye Luo is not in the palace." After Han Chen understood the situation, he said to Yu Nian with a serious expression.
Pei Ling suddenly said, "If you're sure it's Ye Luo, I can help find him."
"How do I find it?"
In the pitch-black night, two people in tattered cloaks walked into the dark alley.
"Your Highness, this is the black market. All the information here is what you can't imagine, but there is nothing you can't buy." Pei Ling's low voice sounded in Yu Nian's ears.
Yu Nian looked up at the ordinary path and said, "Let's go inside."
The narrow and muddy road was so dark that you could hardly see under your feet.
Yu Nian couldn't help but slow down his pace. Losing his vision would inevitably make people scared.
A large hand suddenly took her hand and said, "Your Highness, please walk faster this way."
After walking along a path where there was almost no light, the view suddenly opened up. Red lanterns of all sizes hung in the dark night sky, barely adding some light.
Yu Nian only showed one eye in his cloak, and glanced around at the outside world.
There were many stall owners standing on both sides of the road, and most of the things they sold were things Yu Nian had never seen before.
Eyes cast their gazes upon the two. Yu Nian tightened her cloak around her and whispered to Pei Ling, "Let's hurry up."
Recently, due to the Zerg attack, the price of medicine in the city has skyrocketed. It is impossible to buy it in normal pharmacies and can only be purchased at a high price on the black market.
If Pei Ling's adjutant hadn't accidentally discovered it while inquiring about the Zerg's location, they probably wouldn't have known that such a place existed.
The two finally stopped in front of a red house.
"Hongyuan" Yu Nian read out the two words facing the plaque on the house.
The door was open, and the faint red light inside seemed like the source of evil thoughts that tempted people to commit crimes in the dark night.
"Are you sure it's here?" Yu Nian and Pei Ling confirmed.
Pei Ling nodded, but spoke hesitantly, "But here..."
Yu Nian was about to pull him inside, but was stopped halfway by Pei Ling.
"What's wrong?" Yu Nian asked puzzledly.
"Only females are allowed to enter here." Pei Ling said tactfully. It can be seen that Yu Nian did not seem to be abnormal. He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, is it because she often enters such places that she is used to it?
The man's eyes were a little deeper.
Yu Nian felt a little strange. Why was there a gender-based distinction between places? It wasn't a toilet.
Under Yu Nian's urging, Pei Ling didn't say anything and followed her silently.
"A guest is coming!" A man with heavy makeup and fancy clothes noticed Yu Nian and immediately came forward.
As an orc with a keen sense of smell, he recognized the two people in front of him at a glance, one female and one male orc.
As for a servant, that's understandable. It means this female is either rich or noble!
The smile on his face became even more flattering. After welcoming Yu Nian into the hall, he immediately called out to two good-looking orcs, "Take good care of the guests. If you fail to do so, you will be punished tonight."
The man twisted his waist, turned around and went to the door to greet the new guest.
Yu Nian had just taken off his cloak when he saw the two men's eyes shining brightly and they were almost sticking to him.
Yu Nian dodged the two men who were approaching her without leaving a trace, and signaled Pei Ling with her eyes to help her out.
Pei Ling coughed lightly and said in a sharp voice, "Why don't you take us to the box?"
The two orcs clinging to Yu Nian looked Pei Ling up and down with strange eyes, then sneered and turned to serve Yu Nian attentively, "Sir, the private room is over here."
It was the first time that Pei Ling was looked at in this way by others. He did not show any anger all the way until he entered the box. He looked around the room with a stern face, and after confirming that it was safe, he stood in front of the two weird orcs.
"Do you know if any strange snake beastmen have come to the black market to buy medicine recently? Or have you seen any injured snake beastmen in the city?" Pei Ling asked coldly.
The two men who were originally clinging to Yu Nian were pushed away by Yu Nian. They stood there in a daze, their eyes darting between Yu Nian and Pei Ling. They were all smart people, so how could they not understand the current situation?
"Well... I do have some impression..." The man hesitated to speak, as if he would not say anything unless you gave him some chips.
Pei Ling remained calm and said, "One message costs 10,000 star coins."
The man immediately flattered, "This injured strange snake beastman really exists! Someone saw the black doctor at the entrance of the ghost market treat a wounded snake beastman."
"Black Doctor?"
