Chapter 736 Anjiang

Xingxing finally received the secret order.

Empress Nie held back her tears and promised Xing Xing solemnly: "Whether you can take Ah Yan back or not, I will always be grateful for your kindness."

This was considered a promise from Queen Nie to Xing Xing, but Xing Xing shook her head: "Your Majesty, there is no need."

She went south in person to seek the Wei Shi Yan, not to make the current emperor and empress owe her a favor.

…

The news that Xingxing was going out caused a stir within the Yu family.

Yu Yonghuai immediately expressed his desire to take leave to accompany Xingxing.

Xingxing shook her head.

The current border situation is tense and ready to explode. As Daxia's young god of war, her elder brother naturally cannot leave the capital at will.

The other brothers also clamored to go with Xingxing, and finally it was Mrs. Wei who made the final decision and let Yu Yonggui go along.

The situation was urgent and Xingxing only had an hour to pack her things. Yu Yonggui told Xingxing that he would meet at the South City Gate in half an hour, and then he hurried out.

Xingxing and the Yu family did not have time to say goodbye one by one. Mother Wei knew that Xingxing had gone there on a secret order from Emperor Jiazheng. Although she was very worried and reluctant to let her go, she could only swallow her tears. She choked up and held Xingxing's hand, telling her to come back safely.

Xing Xing quickly gave Grandma Wei a hug, took the bag that Zhaoying had packed for her, and said to Grandma Wei, "Grandma, remember to tell Grandpa and Grandma Xinguo Mansion for me, and have someone tell Grandma Daxi as well. Just say that I'm going out, no need to say anything more... I probably won't be back for ten days or half a month, don't let them worry about me."

Mrs. Wei nodded with tears in her eyes.

When Xingxing left, she didn't even take her camera with her.

Zhaoying wanted to follow with tears in her eyes, but Xingxing just patted Zhaoying's arm and said, "The fewer people we take on this trip, the better. Besides, you have to stay and help me look after the yard."

Without having time to explain too much, Xingxing put on her bag, pulled the horse Jihua that her eldest brother had given her out of the stable, clamped her legs around the horse's belly, and galloped out of the city.

Outside the city, Xing Xing first met Yu Yonggui who was riding a black horse. The two looked at each other without saying much. They rode away for nearly half an hour before meeting up with the elite team dispatched by Emperor Jiazheng on a secluded road.

There are only twenty people in this team, but each of them is capable of fighting ten people at once.

Xing Xing and Yu Yonggui led this elite team all the way to the southwest.

Let’s not talk about the hardships we have experienced along the way.

It was only when they were about to reach Jinjiang that Xingxing and Yu Yonggui changed their luggage.

They dressed up as an innocent young master and his sister who were traveling to study.

Those elite guards were dressed up as servants accompanying the wealthy brothers and sisters.

"I've seen a map of the country. To the west of Jinjiang is Anzhou. The landscape of Anzhou is very similar to what I dreamed of." Xingxing whispered to Yu Yonggui in the carriage. "When the time comes, we can pretend to go sightseeing and look around."

Yu Yonggui nodded seriously, took out another piece of paper and spread it out: "Actually, there is no need to look everywhere. Last time I asked you to draw the mountain in your dream, and let us in Chaoyang Building help to look for it secretly. The shape of this mountain is probably in this area."

Yu Yonggui pointed to a certain place on the map.

That is the western part of Anjiang.

Yu Yonggui drew a circle around this point and said, "I didn't tell them the details. I just asked them to do a preliminary investigation for us. When the time comes, you can use the details in the dream to identify it carefully, so as to avoid bringing other dangers to Brother Shi Yan."

Xing Xing also nodded: "There's no harm in being cautious."

The brother and sister had just made the plan in a low voice in the carriage when it creaked into Anjiang City.

Anjiang is a remote little town, a little far from the inland hinterland and the border, and with natural mountains as a barrier, the people here lead a relatively peaceful and happy life. Sometimes the nobles from the prefecture would come to Anjiang to settle down when they came out hunting.

In such an environment, Xingxing and Yu Yonggui, a pair of wealthy siblings who came out to study, were not noticeable.

They found an inn to stay in.

Xingxing and Yu Yonggui were having dinner in the guest lobby. The leader of the guards suddenly gave Yu Yonggui a look.

In fact, there was no need for the guard leader to give Yu Yonggui a signal. Yu Yonggui often went out on such covert missions and had already noticed something unusual - behind them, there was a little fat man who kept glancing at them under the cover of drinking tea.

How to put it - Yu Yonggui felt that the other party was somewhat sneaky.

Yu Yonggui and the leader of the guards looked at each other. They had already developed a lot of tacit understanding during the journey. Yu Yonggui pretended to be a little drunk, stood up, and walked staggeringly towards the inn's shopkeeper.

Halfway through the journey, Yu Yonggui "accidentally" bumped into the fat boy, knocking over the teacup that the fat boy was holding as a cover.

The little fat boy stood up suddenly in shock and stammered, "You you you——"

The leader of the guards came over immediately, looking very apologetic and saying that his young master was drunk. In fact, he had already quickly checked the conditions of the fat man's group.

Yu Yonggui raised his head, and the leader of the guards exchanged a subtle look with him.

Yu Yonggui understood - there was no problem, it was just a misunderstanding.

Yu Yonggui also cooperated very well, pretending to be a little tipsy and apologized to the fat boy: "...Brother, brother, I'm really sorry, I'm so drunk."

Yu Yonggui took out a piece of silver and said, "Brother, your tea was accidentally spilled by me. This is my compensation to you."

Yu Yonggui spoke vaguely, which was consistent with the state of a drunk person.

But the little fat boy blushed: "You don't have to be so polite."

He couldn't help but glance behind Yu Yonggui, and stammered to warn him, "It's just, it's just, brother, you, you're still taking your sister out, and it's broad daylight, so you'd better drink less."

In a flash, Yu Yonggui understood.

OK, it turns out that the little fat boy has been glancing at them because he has taken a fancy to his daughter Xing Xing!

No wonder he thought the little fat boy was a little mean just now. Now it seems that the little fat boy is not only a little mean, but also quite hideous!

Abominable!

Yu Yonggui's face drooped!

Even though the little fat boy was still smiling, the more Yu Yonggui looked at him, the more he disliked him!

Xing Xing also stood up. She was wearing the clothes that were popular among the rich girls in Anzhou, Jinjiang. She smiled at the fat boy and said, "Brother, you are right."

Xing Xing said to Yu Yonggui again, "Brother, I told you to drink less. Look, you made a fool of yourself, didn't you? Come, I'll take you back to your room to rest."

As she spoke, Xingxing reached out and held Yu Yonggui, then smiled at the fat boy and went to the room they had booked on the second floor.

The little fat boy was stunned looking at the backs of Xing Xing and Yu Yonggui!
