Chapter 773 Have you found anything?

Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Gongsun Zhu ordered the guards beside him: "Go and find out the origins of these two people for me! I want to see where they came from, how dare they come here in the Northern Chu Kingdom?" In the city, openly oppose this young master!"

"Yes!" The guard responded and left quickly.

Gongsun Zhu took another look, until the figures of Yun Xiyue and Ji Xuanqing were too far away to be seen, then he looked away, turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.

……

That night.

Yun Xiyue was lying on the bed but completely sleepless. She turned over and faced Ji Xuanqing. She said in a low voice, "How do we get this last treasure map fragment? Just sneak into the palace and steal it?"

"This might be a way." Ji Xuanqing stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, staring down at her.

Yun Xiyue frowned, with a solemn expression: "It seems that there is really no other better way than this one. You can't just go to the emperor and ask him to give us the treasure map fragments?"

"Perhaps this is also feasible." Ji Xuanqing smiled.

When Yun Xiyue heard the words, she immediately raised her head and looked at him in surprise: "This method is also feasible? How can it be feasible? Why do we ask the emperor to agree to give us the treasure map fragments?"

"Is my status as Emperor Guisha enough?" Ji Xuanqing looked at her with a smile on her face, and a charming smile on her lips.

Yun Xiyue was stunned for a moment, and raised her hand to rest her forehead helplessly: "If you revealed your identity as the Emperor Guisha, who would dare not accept it? But, this is a bit too high-profile, right? Or, let's try to do it first. Steal, if you can't steal it, then you will come forward?"

"You have the final say." Ji Xuanqing said with a smile, "It's getting late, let's rest early."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and placed a kiss on her forehead.

However, just when the two were about to fall asleep, they suddenly noticed a black shadow flashing past the window.

The two got up almost reflexively, and Ji Xuanqing, who was sleeping on the outside, got out of bed immediately, walked three steps in two, and came to the window in the blink of an eye.

He paused by the window for a few seconds. After observing, he suddenly waved his right hand, and a sharp grudge came out, instantly pushing the closed window open.

However, there was no movement outside the window, only a cool night wind blew in.

They live on the second floor, and the eaves of the first floor are outside the window, so when the window is opened, the outside situation can be seen at a glance.

"Did you find anything?" Yun Xiyue propped up the bed with both hands, leaned over to look at him, and asked suspiciously.

Ji Xuanqing poked her head out of the window, looked left and right, and after making sure that there was nothing suspicious, she closed the window and walked back to the bed.

"Maybe we got it wrong. Go on to sleep." He said soothingly, and lay down beside her again.

Yun Xiyue also lay down, but an inexplicable uneasiness rose in her heart, as if something bad was about to happen.

……

The next day.

The two just woke up and were about to go downstairs to have breakfast when they heard the door being slapped.

"Master, something has happened!" Wuying's voice sounded.

"Come in." Ji Xuanqing said in a deep voice.

Wuying pushed the door open and walked in, quickly came to the front of the two of them, without even paying attention to the salute, straight to the point and said: "Master, a large group of people who claim to be from the Gongsun family came downstairs and said they want to arrest the two of you, Master."

Gongsun's house?
In Yunxiyue's mind, the man named Gongsunzhu whom she met yesterday at the auction house suddenly appeared.
