Chapter 369 - Being locked on
“The people who came to buy information now, two of them came to buy information on big sister Yu Xi. They are the Jia Manor and Ye Zhi Qiu.” Nangong Ying Xue said in a single breath before taking a sip from the teacup on the table.
Jia Manor? Ye Zhi Qiu?
Ye Yu Xi’s mind was stirred, it was a bit different from what she imagined.
She had met Ye Zhi Qiu at the Alchemist Guild and she had met his gaze. She had then signed up for the alchemist test, so Ye Zhi Qiu locking onto her was already certain.
Only there was an extra Jia Manor…..
Ye Yu Xi thought that the ones investigating her would be the seventh princes’ people, but now there was a Jia Manor.
Dong, dong, dong!
When Ye Yu Xi wanted to speak, knocks sounded on the door.
“Come in.” Nangong Ying Xue’s voice was a bit impatient because someone was interrupting when they were about to discuss.
The door was slowly opened by someone.
“Leader, this is the news brought back by the spies from the city today.” The mercenary didn’t come in and stood outside the door holding a letter.
Nangong Ying Xue took the letter and waved her hand to let them leave.
Opening the letter, she took a few looks over it. Nangong Ying Xue had been dealing with information for the past year, so she could tell what was important and what wasn’t with a single glance.
“Big sister Yu Xi, the things we did at the Mu Manor have already been spread and quite a few citizens in the city support Blood Enchantress.” Nangong Ying Xue read the letter while telling Ye Yu Xi and Mu Xue Qing the contents.
Ye Yu Xi nodded. The matter in the Mu Manor was that loud, it was expected that it was spread.
“The Prosperous Life House was booked by the seventh prince today, saying that it is to celebrate his engagement to prime minister Jia’s daughter, young miss Jia Qiong.” Nangong Ying Xue saw another important piece of news.
Seventh prince…..Jia Qiong…..Jia Manor…..
Ye Yu Xi softly tapped her finger on the table. She had met the seventh prince outside the Alchemist Guild and with the seventh prince’s personality, he definitely wouldn’t let her go. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have planned to kill her when she was still waste.
“Big sister Yu Xi, there is a piece of news from the palace.” Nangong Ying Xue’s voice became a bit serious, this was the matter Ye Yu Xi had left her yesterday.
“Oh? What does it say on the letter?” Ye Yu Xi’s attention was attracted.
“The letter says that some time ago, a few maids had strangely disappeared from the palace and that the seventh prince has been acting more strangely recently. As for the seventh prince’s cultivation rising, there has been no news from the palace.” Nangong Ying Xue quickly looked over the letter and reported the main parts of it.
Ye Yu Xi finger tapping became faster and it became more rhythmic.
Nangong Ying Xue and Mu Xue Qing were both silent. Each time big sister Yu Xi was like this, she would always be considering important things.
The room was silent for over ten minutes before Ye Yu Xi spoke.
“Ying Xue, send people back to Ningyuan City and have Ye Wen and Ye Man pick some skilled people to first send to the capital. After half a month, they can all come over.” Ye Yu Xi made her decision.
“As for the Jia Manor and Ye Zhi Qiu investigating me, other than my relation to Blood Enchantress, you can give them all the other information. Just fake a bit of the information, make it so they can’t get a clear picture.”
