Chapter 293 I'll Avoid It



A gentle breeze and light rain carried people onto the carriage.

Unaware of Chen Yu's background and purpose, the two remained vigilant after leaving Qizhen Pavilion.

When they arrived at the princess's residence, they stopped at a side gate, which was usually used by the maids and servants, so it was relatively secluded.

Xuanji Guard Commander Yao Guang did not appear; instead, he remained hidden in the shadows to escort them.

The carriage returned to Qionggui Lane. As instructed by His Highness, two taels of silver were given, and the person was dropped off in an empty alley.

It's not that Qin Zhaoyue is stingy; even the worst cleaning lady in the manor earns two taels a month.

It's because Chen Yu was already living in poverty, so what's the point of giving him such a large sum of money now?

When no one was around, Yao Guang secretly revealed his identity via telepathy.

After the initial panic, Chen Yu quickly calmed down.

Children from poor families mature early, especially since she also had to take care of her disabled father and young brother.

He had to study hard to pass the imperial examinations and become a scholar, while also earning money to support his family.

Having also encountered the Wang Chong incident, his temperament has long been tempered.

As she left the secluded alley and rejoined the crowd, Chen Yu had already suppressed the turmoil in her heart, behaving like an ordinary woman who was somewhat disappointed.

When Qingfeng and Xiyu returned to Qizhen Pavilion, naturally some inquisitive servants came to inquire.

Not only that, even the shopkeeper Li Chen came to greet them, since Chen Yu had specifically asked to see him.

Qingfeng waved his hand dismissively, "What else could it be? I don't know where they heard such outdated information, still thinking about the former No. 1 Restaurant in the World, wanting to join the Sixth Prince."

Everyone immediately understood: the reputation of Tianxia Yilou was known to everyone in Fengjing City.

Those who can't make it here have to try their luck. Who knows, they might just get a unique "number one in the world" title. Isn't a free monthly allowance great?

Especially considering that the girl was dressed simply and didn't seem to be from Fengjing, she probably came from a poor family.

This explanation and casual attitude were also taught by Qin Zhaoyue, and they were completely reasonable.

"Did you see His Highness?"

Qingfeng scoffed, "How could that be! If Your Highness had such intentions, would there be a Qizhen Pavilion now?"

We've both been banished from the manor, would we be stupid enough to go and invite trouble?

They thought we were really taking her with us, and we got the truth out of her in just a few words. We gave them some loose change to get rid of them.

Li Chen had no doubts whatsoever.

When selecting the "talents" currently enrolled at the World's Number One Building, there were actually two who were quite well-educated.

Although he didn't pass the imperial examinations, he could still be competent as a staff member and draft documents.

But His Highness completely scoffed at the attitude, and those who stayed behind...

A big idiot, a magician, a porn artist, and a mystical sorcerer.

Li Chen, a PhD in mathematics, was already the most serious one among them.

It was a minor incident that didn't cause any ripples in the Qizhen Pavilion and simply faded away.

Meanwhile, Yin Zhe carried Qin Zhaoyue at breakneck speed.

The matter is too serious; someone needs to be stationed at the princess's residence to prevent any possibility of the news leaking out.

Yin Zhe had sent out all the people he had with him, so at this point, he could only leave Sui Mo behind to take charge of the overall situation.

On the surface, it seemed no different from usual, after all, Qin Zhaoyue had laid a good foundation in her daily life.

She usually doesn't go out, and she mostly rests in the backyard in the afternoon.

Apart from leaving two people to guard the backyard, the rest of the Mo Group went into hiding.

Meanwhile, Sui Mo, who had just advanced to the fourth rank, was stationed in the central courtyard, and his perception range was sufficient.

As I said before, unless a Divine Martial Realm expert arrives in person, the Princess's residence cannot possibly leak any information today.

Just kidding, Sui Mo is a former commander of the Qingluan Guard, and his subordinates are all experienced soldiers, so his ability in this area is beyond doubt.

In other words, Qin Zhaoyue took too big a step, suddenly going from being ignored to a high-level player, and their cultivation level was somewhat insufficient.

However, compared to other mansions, it is definitely a top-tier institution, except for a few families with military merit.

Yin Zhe, carrying Qin Zhaoyue, arrived at Jingzhao Prefecture in no time.

It was already afternoon, and the heat outside the Jingzhao Prefecture government office had subsided somewhat, but the crowds of onlookers still occupied most of the street.

On the one hand, they were delighted, and on the other hand, they also wanted to see how many major cases the prefect would handle in a single day.

How could we, the people of Fengjing, not join in this fun?

Stop joking. Before the first case was even finished, the news spread like wildfire throughout the streets and alleys of Fengjing City.

Prefect Deng Hongyi was probably trying his best to redeem himself from his troublesome father's bad reputation.

He would nibble on a biscuit when he was hungry and drink water when he was thirsty, without taking a break for a moment, handling one case after another.

With a quick sense, Yin Zhe located the location of Dou Zhan and immediately led his men into the prison.

The prison in Jingzhao Prefecture has two floors. The lower floor is much smaller and, in addition to holding the most heinous criminals, also has a harsh torture chamber.

While the large-scale arrest of criminals took place last night, all other unrelated prisoners were transferred to special cases.

Meanwhile, the lower level had become Douzhan's territory, and anyone who discovered anything suspicious had the right to interrogate them on the spot.

Wang Chong is very lucky; he is now the first and only person to enjoy this top-level treatment.

"grown ups!"

Yin Zhe deliberately exposed himself, and was immediately detected by the executioner, Dou Zhan.

One moment he was a terrifying executioner, the next he had closed the Black Prison and was standing obediently to the side.

Tsk...

Qin Zhaoyue covered her mouth and nose and pursed her lips.

The way he laughs at Dou Zhan, so worthless, tsk tsk tsk...

Yin Zhe glared at him, then immediately straightened his back and stopped laughing.
