Rebirth of Noble Menjiao

Chapter 124 Guests

Mingyi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "The Governor is really bright-eyed!"

"But... the court may not be relieved. I have caught a lot of spies from the court over the years." Mingyi's heart suddenly dropped again, but Xue Lin turned away after saying that. He nodded, but the corners of his mouth moved slightly.

"There are no horse hoof prints or footprints. It's impossible for a person to escape." Xue Lin looked around and said suddenly.

Mingyi suddenly woke up and looked down at the ground. The sand here is soft and windy, so traces will not remain for long.

"Here!" Mingyi suddenly pointed to a certain place.

Xue Lin went over and squatted down with her, and saw some marks on her fingers. "It seems that they wrapped the horse's hooves in thick cotton cloth."

Mingyi nodded, and the two of them followed the direction of the trace, "Over there!" Mingyi raised her hand and pointed not far away.

"Let's go!" Xue Lin nodded and took the lead in walking in that direction, with Mingyi following closely behind.

Following the trace, they went all the way down the slope. At the bottom of the slope was a deep ravine. In the direction they were standing just now, there was vegetation blocking their view, making it difficult to see clearly. In a hollow in the ravine, they found two Han Chinese robes that had been taken off, and then a series of marks left by horse hooves wrapped in thick cotton cloth, spreading towards one end of the ravine.

"It's late!" Mingyi couldn't hide her annoyance.

"Madam, she knows a little bit today, and she is already a qualified scout!" Xue Lin said.

Mingyi was slightly stunned and looked at him in shock. Was he... praising her? Why can't I believe it, but I can't control the joy in my heart? It's not easy for her to be of some use to him.

Xue Lin didn't know what she was thinking. He put his little finger in his lips and blew a few whistles of different lengths. Then he looked at her and said, "Let's go!"

Mingyi nodded, and the two of them walked back together. Returning to the place where they had just discovered the traces, within a short while, the soldiers who had been scattered had gathered together.

Xue Lin gave the order, and all the soldiers mounted their horses one after another, and surrounded Xue Lin and Mingyi back to the city.

They galloped all the way to the city gate without saying anything. There was the sound of horse hooves in the city, and when they looked up, dust and smoke rolled in. It was Yang Li who came with a group of archers. When they got close, both sides reined in their horses.

"Have a good time escorting your wife back to your home!" Xue Lin ordered Yang Li in a deep voice.

Yang Li clasped his fists.

Mingyi only had time to raise her eyes, and with a quick glance at his, he had already turned his horse's head, and with the soldiers and half of the bow guards brought by Yang Li, he turned around and galloped away in the direction he came from just now.

Mingyi called out, but she couldn't call out. So...did he just make a special trip to send her to the city gate?

"Madam! Let's go back, shall we?" Yang Li said from the side.

Mingyi nodded, looked away, turned the horse's head, and galloped towards the city.

Since spies may have been discovered outside the city today, no matter where they came from, there must be some investigation in the city and the army.

As Mingyi expected, when he went to the streets on the second day, although most of the shops on the streets were open, there were far fewer pedestrians coming and going, but there were obviously more soldiers patrolling.

"Princess, it's almost noon, should we go back to the house?" Wei Yu reminded softly from the side. Since the princess returned to the mansion yesterday, the guards in the mansion have been much tighter. Even if Wei Yu didn't know what happened, he knew something must have happened, but today the princess had to go out for a walk. The governor was not in the house, she was the oldest, and no one dared to stop her, so she, Lu Zhao, and Lu Ming had to accompany her out.

The streets were deserted today, and the princess was not in the mood to go shopping. After a while, she went to the teahouse to sit, but she just sat. In that case, why not go back home? You don't have to worry about it outside.

"Don't worry, it's almost lunch time. The Governor is not here, so we might as well have lunch here before going back. Besides, the guests I invited haven't arrived yet."

"Guest?" Wei Yu was slightly stunned. How come she didn't know what guests the princess had invited? Moreover, when they first came to Beiguan, they didn't know many people. The only people they knew were Xu You and Xue Tai, but these were all men, and they were all related to the governor. Thinking of this, Wei Yu felt a little uneasy and subconsciously looked up at Lu Ming, who was standing like a pillar.

Lu Zhao stayed outside the tea shop, while Lu Ming stayed with Mingyi. He usually didn't like to speak. At first, Mingyi thought he was mute, and now he still doesn't say a word unless he has to. Although it is standing aside, it is almost like a shadow, silent and can be completely ignored.

Mingyi is now more and more aware of his benefits, so she keeps him by her side most of the time.

It was the same today. No matter what he thought about the "guest" in Mingyi's words, Lu Ming seemed to have not heard it and remained silent. But he was very sharp. When Wei Yu's eyes just fell on him, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked over. Wei Yu was so frightened that he immediately retracted his sight, buried his head, and did not dare to look over again.

Lu Ming groaned in his heart, like a frightened rabbit. When he looked away, his eyes suddenly turned to the door of the elegant room.

After a while, there were sounds of footsteps, one in front and one behind, stopping at the door of the elegant room. Then, there was a gentle knock on the door, and Mingyi laughed, "It seems that he is my guest." It’s here! Light rain…”

Wei Yu understood, walked to the door, opened it, looked up and saw the person standing outside the door, and was a little surprised, "Miss Luo?"

The person standing outside the door is Luo Suhe. Could it be that Miss Luo is the "guest" the princess calls her? Wei Yu's eyes turned to fall behind Luo Suhe, and his eyes changed slightly.

"Princess, your guest, I have invited it for you." Luo Suhe turned to one side and let the people behind him out.

Mingyi stood up and came forward with a smile, "Miss Xiange, please come in quickly!"

This time, when Lu Ming, who had always been wooden-like, took a clear look at the girl Xian Ge standing by the door, his expression changed slightly, and he even glanced at Ming Yi with a slightly strange look.

Mingyi seemed unaware, her eyes still fell on the man beside the door, and she couldn't hide the amazement in her eyes.

She was truly a beauty. Even though she had lived a short life as a stunning beauty like Li Fengjiao, and even though she was a woman, Mingyi still felt that the girl in front of her was truly a beauty that was rarely seen in her life.

The woman wore a bright purple dress, somewhat imitating the style of a barbarian. The waist was tightened, pinching out a slender waist, with an attractive curve. With a lotus face and a pair of loving eyes, her glance and glance may instantly make a man's bones break. This is a woman who is charming from the bottom of her heart. However, she is gorgeous but not vulgar, charming but not seductive. The color of her dress might have been gaudy on others, but when worn on her, it had an indescribable charm.

Mingyi secretly praised in her heart, no wonder, she makes a woman's heart flutter just looking at her, let alone a man? Isn’t that the fascination, the five delusions and the three ways?

Mingyi looked at the beauty, the admiration and amazement in her eyes almost turned into reality, but it made the beauty's eyes look a little weird when she looked at her.

After a moment of silence, he stepped forward and gave a gentle blessing, "I wonder why Madam called me here?"

Even the voice is filled with indescribable charm, it really clears the throat and makes a sweet sound.
