With Xu Qingchen keeping an eye on An City and the Murong family's situation, Ye Li and Mo Xiuyao were even more relaxed. Every day, Mo Xiuyao would drag Ye Li to wander around the city, aimlessly as if they were a couple who were bored to pass the time before the martial arts convention. This made the people who were sent to follow them extremely depressed. They couldn't see anything wrong with this young couple. Even though the man was a little more handsome, and his martial arts were a little higher, and the woman was a little more beautiful, and seemed to be more outstanding than the average noble lady, it had nothing to do with their master at all. They couldn't understand why their master was so insistent that these two people were dangerous.
After following them for two days, they still couldn't find anything wrong with these two people. Even Ren Qining was embarrassed to send people to follow them. He could only withdraw the people who were following Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li.
When they left the room, Ye Li was surprised to find that there was no one following them, "They left so quickly?"
Mo Xiuyao said lightly, "He's a smart person. Since he can't find out who we are, it won't look good for anyone if he continues to follow us." Ye Li frowned and said, "Big Brother, do you have any information on Ren Qining's background?"
Mo Xiuyao shook his head and said, "I can't find anything. This person and the power behind him shouldn't have appeared in Jianghu or among the nobles of various countries. Otherwise, there should be some clues. But it's okay … this is Xi Ling's territory. " This person appeared in Xi Ling. Even if there was a headache, it should be Lei Zhenting. "Your big brother has already sent people to remind Lei Zhenting and Lei Tengfeng. Let's see their reaction first. "
Ye Li nodded. If Ren Qining didn't think he was smart and sent people to follow them, Ye Li wouldn't have had any interest in this person. Since Mo Xiuyao knew what was going on, Ye Li couldn't be bothered to care.
In the past few days, they had been wandering around in and out of An City. Although there was an annoying tail following behind them, they still learned a lot of news. Although the Murong family was not well-known in the Northwest and Da Chu state, An City was less than ten miles away from the Murong family. It could be said that the entire An City was within the Murong family's sphere of influence. Naturally, there was no need to talk about the Murong family.
It was said that Miss Murong was as beautiful as a flower, and her temperament was gentle and kind. His reputation in An City was extremely good. In the hearts of many people, he was like a living Bodhisattva. It was said that on the first day of every month, Miss Murong would go to Zhao Ning Temple outside the city to burn incense and pray for her grandfather. Coincidentally, it was the first day of the first lunar month. Even if the martial arts tournament was about to begin, it did not seem to have caused the Murong Clan Lady to change her habit. Hence, there were very few martial artists who received the news early on. The nobles and heroes did not even have time to eat breakfast before they all rushed to Zhao Ning Temple. It made An City, which had been crowded and bustling for the past few days, much quieter.
Since Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li had come to join in on the fun, they naturally could not avoid going to Zhao Ning Temple to join in on the grand occasion. After the two of them finished their breakfast, they leisurely made their way out of the city. When they arrived at Zhao Ning Temple, they saw that it was filled with people. If outsiders who were unaware of the situation were to see this, they would definitely marvel at the flourishing incense in Zhao Ning Temple.
Although there were too many people, fortunately, Zhao Ning Temple itself was still a place worth visiting. Especially the secluded mountain behind the temple, the scenery was picturesque. The people who had come all crowded in front of the temple, wanting to see Miss Murong's beautiful face. At this time, the back of the temple was especially quiet and free. Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li held hands as they strolled along the small path in the back of the temple. The faint noise from the distance made the back of the temple seem even more deserted. Thinking of the people who were eagerly waiting, Ye Li could not help but chuckle softly.
Mo Xiuyao lowered his head to look at her, "What is Miss Li laughing about?"
Ye Li raised her head to look at his expression. She held back her laughter and said, "I'm wondering if Mo Jingli and Lei Tengfeng are among those people. Also … if Prince is also waiting with those people, what would happen?"
Mo Xiuyao gave a displeased snort. Master Prince Ding had been arrogant his entire life. It had always been others who were eagerly waiting for him. When had he ever waited for others? "Other than Miss Li, who else in this world is worth I waiting for?" Ye Li helplessly rolled her eyes. She felt somewhat immune to Prince Mo's sweet words.
As they chatted, Mo Xiuyao's gaze focused. He raised his head to look ahead. Then he picked up Ye Li's doppelganger and walked up the small path to land on an old tree covered in green vines.
Mo Xiuyao's actions did not shock Ye Li. She leaned in Mo Xiuyao's arms and looked in the direction he was looking. A while later, she heard the clear sounds of conversation. A group of people slowly walked down the mountain. Ye Li looked around. There were more than ten strong men and women holding swords and sabers. They were protecting a young girl in a light purple robe. Beside her were six young girls in green robes dressed as maids and two mamas. With a glance, Ye Li could see that the purple robe the young girl wore was the Water Cloud Satin, the head of the Three Treasures of Nanzhao. The gauze covering the robe was hibiscus muslin.
The people of Nanzhao considered blue and white to be the noblest. Therefore, the Water Cloud Satin of the Three Treasures of Nanzhao was more simple in color and did not produce dark purple. Thus, this Water Cloud Satin was not a tribute from Nanzhao. Other than Nanzhao, no one else in the world could make such high quality satin as the Water Cloud Satin. Therefore, this purple Water Cloud Satin could only be made by themselves. In other words, someone had long grasped the most precious secret of Nanzhao. Once they produced large amounts of Water Cloud Satin, it would be a great fortune. But the world had never heard of any place outside of Nanzhao that had Water Cloud Satin. Then it was likely that they did not care about this business.
Looking at the young girl's jade hairpins, pearls and gems, they were all of the highest quality. Her attire was something that even an imperial princess would not have, much less a commoner. Without even thinking about it, Ye Li had already guessed who the girl who was being protected in the middle of the crowd was.
"Miss, there are many people outside the mountain gates. Let's go out the side door, "the mamas beside the young girl in purple suggested softly. While there were not many people here, that was because those people thought that Miss had not come yet. They did not know that they had already gone up the mountain before dawn. If they went out the main door now, they would probably disturb Miss. The young girl in purple smiled faintly and said, "Mamas Su, don't worry. Those people are all heroes of the world who came to participate in the martial arts convention. Presumably, they would not be so ignorant of the rules."
"That's right. Miss is right. Those people can't wait to curry favor with Miss. Who would dare to offend Miss? " The maid beside the young girl in purple smiled and said, "Family Head and Grand Uncle said that they would choose the most outstanding man in the world to be Miss's husband. They also want to let those people know that our Miss is not only the Miss of the richest family, but also a great beauty capable of causing the downfall of a city. "
"What nonsense are you saying? Be careful that Grandpa will discipline you when we go back!" The young girl in purple reprimanded. The pair of watery eyes that were exposed outside the light purple veil carried a faint smile. Clearly, she did not have any intention of blaming. The maid knew that her Miss was always kind and was not afraid. She giggled and said, "Miss is the kindest. She would not let Master punish Lu 'er." The young girl in purple sighed softly and said, "Forget it. Quickly go back so that Grandpa and Grand Uncle won't worry."
