Chapter 224: Amulet
Nan Jiao quickly stepped forward to help them up, "You still haven't gotten over your kneeling habit?"
Lingxi's tears fell, "We were too excited and thought we would never see the Sect Master again. This kneeling is what we should do."
Ling Jing sniffed and said, "Master, we missed you so much. Now that you have recovered your memory, why didn't you return to Shura Sect earlier?"
"The time has not come yet. You didn't tell others that you came out this time, right?" Nan Jiao asked.
Lingxi and Lingjing shook their heads.
Nan Jiao smiled and said, "Very good, I can spread the news that I'm still alive."
"Do you want to tell everyone in the sect?" Lingxi asked excitedly. Although some people have developed disloyalty over the past four years, most of them are still following the sect leader.
“Don’t let other people know that I’m the leader of Shura Sect for now. You just need to spread the news that I’m alive.” Nan Jiao said in a serious tone.
Lingxi and Lingjing nodded.
Although they don't know why, they just have to do it. It's better to have their leader alive.
"I have a mission for you. Accompany the Seventh Princess of Qin to Miaojiang. Protect her and collect information about the current power situation in Miaojiang." Nan Jiao said.
Originally I wanted them to stay in the capital.
But after thinking about it, I decided to let them protect Chu Yue.
And if she is really the Holy Maiden of Miao, she is also half Miao.
Naturally, you have to understand the situation there clearly.
"We listen to the leader." Lingxi said without hesitation. Although they didn't want to separate from her, they would do their best to complete the orders she gave.
"Master, we can't bear to part with you." Ling Jing puffed up his chubby face and looked very reluctant.
Nan Jiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will go to Miaojiang soon. Before I get there, you should learn more about Miaojiang."
"Okay!" Lingxi and Lingjing said in unison.
Very good!
After four years of idleness, I finally have something to do!
…
Nan Jiao returned to Prince Jin's mansion quietly. As soon as she entered the room, she felt that there was someone in the room. As she walked towards the bed, the familiar breath made her let down her guard.
When someone approached, Zhan Beiheng reached out and pulled her into his arms, "You're running around again so late at night."
Nan Jiao took advantage of the situation and hugged his neck. "Two girls from Shura Sect came. I asked them to go to Miaojiang with Chu Yue. They are very skilled."
"You keep it with you, I'll arrange it for her."
"Let them go. They are good at reconnaissance and can help Chu Yue gain a foothold in Miaojiang earlier and conquer Miaojiang sooner." Nan Jiao said her plan.
"You can use my secret guard as you like." Zhan Beiheng held her and lay down.
"Really?" Nan Jiao looked at him with bright eyes.
Zhan Beiheng stepped forward and kissed her on the cheek, "Of course, everything I have is yours, you can do whatever you want."
Nan Jiao smiled and said, "You said it, everything you have is mine, don't regret it later."
"Never regret it." Zhan Beiheng said firmly. Since he made a promise to her, he would do it and would never go back on his word.
Nan Jiao snuggled into his arms, smelling his unique scent, thinking about their past, and then looking at the present, she always felt like she was dreaming.
It seemed so unreal, he was right next to her.
…
The next day.
Nan Jiao got up early and went into the kitchen to prepare a large table full of sumptuous breakfast. She also asked housekeeper Zhou to buy more ingredients for lunch and dinner.
After all, Chu Yue and Xiao Fusheng are leaving tomorrow.
She cooked two meals for them.
In the kitchen.
Dapang Chen is learning how to cook from Nan Jiao.
Nan Jiao initially thought that he was fat and might be clumsy and slow, but it turned out that he was a flexible fat man with a special talent for cooking.
She decided to teach him some cooking skills.
Fat Chen naturally wanted to learn, and he also thought that when he returned to the Island of Sin in the future, he would cook for the four old men, which would surely make them very happy.
Nan Jiao had just finished making breakfast when Butler Zhou came to report that the eldest son of the General's Mansion had arrived and asked her to go out for a while.
She let Zhan Chuyue and the others eat first, and then took four buns that had just been taken out of the basket.
When Jiang Huai saw Nan Jiao coming out, he immediately got off the carriage.
Nan Jiao handed him the hot buns.
Jiang Huai felt warm in his chest and took the bun wrapped in oil paper. "I've already had breakfast."
"Eat when you're hungry. Is there something urgent that brings you to me so early?" Nan Jiao asked with a smile. Judging from his attire, he should be on duty at the Ministry of War soon.
"Grandfather is investigating mother's matter. My maternal grandfather will come to the capital soon. He should be familiar with mother." Jiang Huai said slowly.
He knew she had told her grandfather, grandmother, and father about it.
Nan Jiao nodded. This matter could only be resolved after her grandfather came over. After all, she was his daughter who had been raised by him for more than ten years. She should know whether there was a change of parents or not.
Jiang Huai took out four amulets from his sleeve pocket and said, "I got these from the temple yesterday. Take them."
Nan Jiao took it, "Four? Me, Yoyo, Baoer, and the other one is for Zhan Beiheng?"
Jiang Huai coughed and said, "No, you can give it to the Seventh Princess for me, but don't say it's from me."
"Why?" Nan Jiao blinked, feeling a little amused. This must be something that her elder brother specially went to the temple to pray for Chu Yue, so she and the child benefited from it.
"She confessed her love to me, but I rejected her. She was going to Miaojiang soon. I felt a little guilty, so I went to Master Yuanman to ask for a peace amulet."
"I don't want her to think too much. Just say that it was you who gave it to her and that it's your brother begging you for help." Jiang Huai said seriously. After all, he couldn't give her a response.
He would feel uncomfortable if he didn't do something.
It can only be done this way.
"Okay, I promise you." Nan Jiao stopped teasing him and let things take their course when it comes to love.
"I'm leaving." Jiang Huai said and quickly got into the carriage with the buns.
Nan Jiao looked at the amulet over and over again. Is this thing really useful?
If I had known earlier, I should have listened to Ye Qingliu and learned how to draw talismans from her. This way, I would have another skill to make money.
When Nan Jiao returned to the yard.
Xiao Fusheng was busy cooking, so she didn't take out the amulet immediately to avoid Chu Yue thinking too much. After all, she didn't go to the temple, so where did she get the amulet from?
…
The gate of the palace.
Nan Jiao brought Lingxi Lingjing to see Zhan Chuyue. They had changed their appearance and no longer had the same look as when they were in Shura Gate.
"Third sister-in-law." Zhan Chuyue walked up to her.
"Lingxi and Lingjing are my people. They are very skilled in martial arts and will take close care of you in the future. You can ask them for anything you need." Nan Jiao introduced them to her.
Zhan Chuyue's eyes were slightly red, and she reached out to hug her, saying with emotion: "Thank you, Third Sister-in-law."
They quarreled so fiercely that time.
She couldn't accept that she was marrying her third brother.
Unexpectedly, one day, she became the only person she could confide in, and she even sent someone to protect her.
Nan Jiao patted her on the back and took out a lucky charm from her sleeve pocket. "This is what I... specially asked for you at the temple. Remember to carry it with you."
Zhan Chuyue took it with joy and said with a bright smile: "Thank you, Third Sister-in-law. I will definitely carry it with me."
