Chapter 224 The whole family enters the Mobei fiefdom
"In reply to the Marquis, I didn't find anything wrong. Only on the day of the temple fair did Madam go to the Zen room for a short meditation, and then she quickly returned to the Marquis' residence. Apart from that, she hasn't been anywhere else."
Wuying answered truthfully about what he had learned in the city.
Chen Jingyan frowned.
That's strange.
Why was Yun Qiao so unfriendly to him when she came back this time?
"My Lord, is there something wrong? I'd better let me go to the ancestral home to investigate. However, I want to ask Your Highness first. Your Highness is not the kind of person you think he is."
Chen Jingyan, who was feeling unhappy, glared at Wuying.
"You need to determine what kind of person she is. Go and do your thing."
Wuying asked honestly, "The Marquis only instructed me to take care of Madam Cha. The rest has not been arranged yet."
"Stand back."
Wuying turned and disappeared.
Chen Jingyan strolled outside the carriage but did not go in. Instead, Wang Dechang, who was in the carriage next to him, called Chen Jingyan to have a drink, calling him "King of Mobei" in a very friendly way.
Chen Jingyan was feeling unhappy, so he had a drink with Wang Dechang.
Yun Qiao listened attentively to what was happening outside.
Xiao Tao whispered to Yun Qiao, "Miss, I didn't mean to say this on purpose. I just feel that the Marquis is still suspicious of you. You can't love him wholeheartedly, even though he is the father of three young masters. As an outsider, I just want to persuade you."
"It's best to love yourself as you did before."
How happy the girl who loved him the most was at that time.
Yun Qiao raised her eyebrows, looked at Xiao Tao and asked her:
"But you went to ask Wuying again? He is the Marquis's guard, and you are my personal maid. You each have your own duties. Don't let him make any mistakes."
"I know you're doing this for my own good, but why can't you see that Wuying has feelings for you? If he didn't have feelings for you, why would he tell you these secrets?"
"If you don't like it, just refuse directly. Don't use him to get information like this."
Xiaotao hung her head.
She whispered, "Yes, I remember it."
In fact, she didn't have to ask. It was Wuying who came to her and told her privately in a roundabout way.
She was not stupid, so she naturally heard it.
I just told the girl that the Marquis is suspicious of her.
I still suspect that the girl is having an affair.
Especially Lord Zhao, who had contact with the girl several times. The Marquis had been looking for him many times, openly and secretly.
These were all told to her by Wuying.
She didn't even tell His Highness.
Anyway, she is going to Mobei now. From now on, no matter what Chen Jingyan or Wuying is thinking, she will be able to read it, and there is no need for Xiaotao to ask.
It was certainly right for her to inquire about things in private, but it was not appropriate for Xiaotao and Wuying.
Wuying likes Xiaotao, but he can't get her, so he can't help but say things to her that she likes to hear.
She was telling herself that if someone with ulterior motives saw this, they might say that it was she, Yun Qiao, who bribed the guards around Chen Jingyan, or his most trusted secret guards.
Why bother going through all this trouble and putting a bad label on yourself?
After hearing what the girl said, Xiaotao admired her even more.
Her daughter is kind and beautiful.
It's really disheartening to see the Marquis being so suspicious of the girl.
***
From Kyoto to Mobei, Chen Jingyan never had the chance to get close to Yun Qiao.
Yun Qiao was quite comfortable.
She didn't suffer any hardship along the way and just treated it as fun.
Since entering Mobei, the environment has become worse, with yellow sand all over the sky. Yun Qiao's carriage has a fixed layer on the outside, but it still can't prevent the yellow sand from seeping into the carriage. Yun Qiao has to wear a veil every time she gets off the carriage.
Before entering Yicheng, a sandstorm suddenly came. The sandstorm came too suddenly and they were not prepared, so they could only stay temporarily in a small town outside Yicheng.
After arranging the accommodation, Yun Qiao immediately asked someone to fetch water.
But water is extremely precious, so we only give drinking water and not much water for washing.
Although Yun Qiao frowned, she did not complain.
Chen Jingyan had already asked someone to prepare water. He was worried that Yun Qiao could not adapt to the environment here, so he hurried back.
The accommodation in Yicheng has already been arranged, and Yunqiao is just waiting to move in.
In addition, he had already arranged for someone to dig a well.
However, the people inside and outside the city have relatively little drinking water, digging wells is expensive, and there are few craftsmen who are good at digging wells. Even if there is well water, it is only used by people inside and outside the city.
However, there is now a well in the Yicheng Mobei Palace, which is enough for Yunqiao's daily life.
"Are the children asleep?"
Yun Qiao looked up and saw Chen Jingyan coming back with his head covered in yellow sand.
"What's the situation outside? When can we set off?"
Yun Qiao asked Chen Jingyan first, and she reached out to help him brush off the yellow sand on his body.
Chen Jingyan took off his cloak and continued talking to Yun Qiao, "The yellow sand has been very serious these days. I'm afraid we'll have to delay our journey for a few days. The sky is full of yellow sand, making it difficult to move forward."
"Thank you for your hard work."
Looking at Yun Qiao's dry and peeling lips, Chen Jingyan felt really distressed.
Yun Qiao said calmly, "No problem."
