Chapter 182 The Dust Settles II

The next day, when Jiang Zuiyao woke up, she found that Qin Nanxian was not there, and Yuhe had returned from unknown time and was lying on the stone bench asleep.

Afraid of waking up the sleeping Yu He, Jiang Zuiyao walked out of the house slowly and softly, and found Qin Nanxian talking to a person in the courtyard. That person was the person who came to see them yesterday.

Jiang Zuiyao didn't know what Qin Nanxian was talking about with him. She wanted to go over and say thank you, but she was afraid that she would be too abrupt and disturb their conversation.

While standing there hesitating, the man caught sight of Jiang Zuiyao and gave her a friendly smile. Jiang Zuiyao returned the smile and walked over.

Qin Nanxian said to that person: "This is the new second commander of Yinfeng Hall."

Afterwards, Qin Nanxian said to Jiang Zuiyao: "Show him your totem."

Jiang Zuiyao rolled up her sleeves and showed them to him.

The man took one look and confirmed Jiang Zuiyao's identity. He smiled and nodded: "I heard about it, but I didn't expect it to be a woman."

It's not surprising that he was surprised, it was difficult to see women in a place like the Imperial City Division.

Immediately, the man lifted up his sleeves and showed his left arm totem to Jiang Zuiyao. Then he cupped his fists and saluted and said, "I'm here, Mo Huan, I've met Lord Zhang Ling."

The totems of most of the staff of the Imperial City Division are imprinted in Jiang Zuiyao's mind. They are the totems of the fifth-rank governor of the Imperial City Dileitang. No wonder yesterday he knocked those bad guys to the ground with three strikes, five divided by two, and the Dileitang

But being in charge of assassinations, let alone a fifth-grade governor, is definitely not bad.

Mo Huan was a man in his early thirties with fair skin and a kind face. He smiled at Jiang Zuiyao and said, "I wonder what your master's name is?"

This made Jiang Zuiyao hesitate a little. She knew that she couldn't say her real name, but she hadn't thought of her code name yet, but it didn't bother Jiang Zuiyao. She thought about it, and in a moment she thought of a name: "Jing Ning."

Mo Huan smiled slightly: "Jing Ning, this is a good name. How could anyone open his mouth and talk to you with a smile?"

Qin Nanxian recited it secretly, and it was true that his mouth turned into a smile just by reciting it.

Qin Nanxian asked Jiang Zuiyao, "What's the meaning of this name?"

Jiang Zuiyao replied: "The pansy treats each other sincerely, and the lemon moon is like the wind."

Mo Huan was very happy when he heard it: "The meaning is so good, no wonder he went to rescue his companions regardless of his own safety."

Jiang Zuiyao smiled awkwardly: "Young Master Mo Huan really embarrassed me. I handled this matter recklessly and caused trouble to the Rucheng government and you."

Mo Huan shook his head with a smile and said, "I can't bear the trouble of your Majesty's orders. It's all my responsibility."

Then, Mo Huan looked at the sky and said, "I still have some things to do, so I'll take the first step."

Jiang Zuiyao nodded and said with a smile: "Then go and get busy, we won't delay you."

When it came time to say goodbye, Mo Huan turned around and left. After walking a few steps, she turned around and reminded him: "Let's go back to Beijing as soon as possible. It will be safe once we return to Beijing."

When Mo Huan walked away, Jiang Zuiyao looked at the back and said, "I didn't expect that he turned out to be a handsome young man."

Qin Nanxian's eyes turned cold: "What? Are you attracted to him?"

These words made Jiang Zuiyao feel very abrupt. She looked away and looked at Qin Nanxian with disdain: "Where are you thinking?"

In order not to disturb Yuhe's rest, the two of them sat on the steps and chatted.

It was late autumn, and the autumn wind blew by, making people feel very comfortable.

Thinking back to yesterday, Qin Nanxian felt scared and said: "You won't be allowed to be so reckless next time."

Jiang Zuiyao asked in confusion: "What's wrong with me?"

"In order to save me, you didn't even care about yourself. You didn't even think about how the person who captured me could be a thief who wanted money."

"Of course I know this, but they said that if you don't go by evening, they will kill you."

"That's to scare you. I am also the Queen Mother's nephew. They don't dare to kill me easily. They have other motives for arresting me. You should go back to Beijing and ask the Imperial City Secretary to come forward. This is a wise move."

Mentioning this matter, Jiang Zuiyao remembered the dispute with Yuhe yesterday, and said with an unhappy face: "I can't do it, I can't leave you alone and go back alone. That would be too disrespectful."

Qin Nanxian looked at Jiang Zuiyao's side face, so stubborn and unwilling, which made him ask with joy: "Are you worried about me? Do you care about my safety?"

Jiang Zuiyao didn't think much, and immediately nodded firmly and said: "Of course! How can I just watch something happen to you? Even if I know it's a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, I have to break into it. How can I leave you alone?"

Qin Nanxian was extremely happy after hearing this. He couldn't help but smile, his smile was sweet and happy.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Zuiyao said again: "You once saved me and were my savior. How could I stand by and watch when you were in trouble? What's more, we are the best friends. I can never abandon you."

In this case, all the happiness on Qin Nanxian's face disappeared instantly.

Disappointment clouded his heart, and he couldn't help but secretly said sadly: It turns out that this is why she cares.

At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open, and Yuhe walked out, looking tired.

When Jiang Zuiyao looked up, she saw that Yuhe's hand was injured and wrapped in white cloth. She quickly stood up and asked worriedly: "Are you injured? When did it happen?"

Yuhe immediately hid his hands in his sleeves and replied: "It's okay, it's just some skin trauma. It will heal in a few days."

Jiang Zuiyao frowned slightly: "I was in a panic yesterday, but I didn't notice you were injured. It was my negligence."

Yuhe shook his head: "It's okay, the cut on my hand is not as big as the wound on your neck."

Jiang Zuiyao knew that Yuhe was trying to show off his strength, and it was just to prevent her from worrying. If it was just a small wound, there would be no need to wrap it with gauze.

Qin Nanxian looked at Jiang Zuiyao's worried look, stood up and said, "I have given him medicine. He will be fine in a few days. Don't worry."

Recalling the argument she had with Yuhe on the street yesterday, Jiang Zuiyao felt guilty and said, "Yuhe, I'm sorry. I said something that hurt your heart yesterday. It was my fault."

Yuhe shook his head indifferently: "It's okay, I'm used to it."

This sentence is used to contain too much sadness.

Jiang Zuiyao hurriedly explained: "I'm really sorry. I was eager to save people, but I didn't know you well enough, so I said those unpleasant words. I take back what I said yesterday. You are not that kind of person, otherwise how could you sacrifice yourself?

help me?"

Yuhe just smiled faintly and looked at Jiang Zuiyao helplessly: "It doesn't matter."

Just two simple words, without any more words, Yuhe walked out and said: "You guys pack up, we will leave for Beijing immediately. I will go out to prepare the carriage and dry food, and we will leave before noon."

It seemed that as Yu He walked away, Jiang Zuiyao was filled with guilt and muttered: "He must not want to be me."

Qin Nanxian smiled and said: "If he was a narrow-minded person, he would not have come back to take care of us yesterday. He usually talks little and rarely expresses himself. He is just a bit cold-tempered. Don't think too much about it.

"

Jiang Zuiyao said with a bitter look on her face: "When he quarreled with me yesterday, he talked a lot. Yesterday, he also blamed me. When I was anxious, I would say whatever I said, and I didn't have any control over what I said. What I said was too unpleasant.

"

Qin Nanxian smiled: "You just think too much. Yuhe is not as stingy as you think. Let's pack our things quickly. Yuhe does things neatly and will be back soon."
