Feng Jia Village used to be the most famous in Feng Wu City, but it was only after it became an imperial merchant that it became known to the world.
However, it was said that Feng Jia Village had long since declined, and now it was just an empty shell.
"Feng Wu City is more prosperous than I thought." Ye Zhen stood by the window of the inn and looked down at the street below. She thought that this place was not far from the border and should be quite desolate, but she did not expect it to be so lively.
Mo Rongzhan was already reading the memorials behind the desk. These memorials were sent from the capital when they first arrived in Feng Wu City. He had to review them and send them back to the capital. When he heard Ye Zhen's words, a faint smile floated on his lips. "There are still many prosperous places in the Jin Kingdom."
"If only I could travel all over the world." Ye Zhen said with emotion.
What? Mo Rongzhan, who was reading the memorials, suddenly raised his head. "What?"
Ye Zhen didn't notice that Mo Rongzhan was already staring at her. Her face was still full of yearning. "The world is so big, how good it would be if I could travel all over it."
"What's there to travel? It's just mountains and rivers. Every place is almost the same." Mo Rongzhan said faintly. This idea of wanting to travel the world must have been influenced by Huang Fuchen. He knew that he couldn't let her become Huang Fuchen's disciple. Fortunately, he took her with him in time. Otherwise, she would have to follow Huang Fuchen everywhere in the future. She would definitely not be willing to marry him.
"You must have said so if you have traveled all over the world." Ye Zhen snorted. "My master didn't say that."
Sure enough, it's Huang Fuchen! Mo Rongzhan secretly gritted his teeth. He should have prevented Huang Fuchen and Yao Yao from meeting, or else Yao Yao would be led astray by him.
Mo Rongzhan put down the memorials in his hand, walked to the window and put his arm around her slender waist. "Huang Fuchen is not comparable to ordinary people. We may not like places that he thinks are beautiful. Wait for me to find some local chronicles for you to read. Where do you like to go? I will accompany you later."
Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows and looked at him. "You are busy every day. Do you have time?"
"You should give birth to a prince as soon as possible. When he ascends the throne in the future, we can go anywhere." Mo Rongzhan said solemnly.
"The more you talk, the further you go." Ye Zhen glared at him angrily.
Mo Rong Zhanqiao took her hand and walked back to sit down. "It's getting late outside. You've been walking for the whole day. Have a good rest. I'll bring you to see Lu Xiangzhi tomorrow."
Thinking of seeing Lu Xiangzhi tomorrow, Ye Zhen's eyes floated with a smile. "Well."
Old Zhuo and his daughter, who were staying at another inn, weren't in a good mood.
"Father, is Third Senior Brother intentionally sending us away?" Zhuo Su 'er's pretty face was gloomy. She was very unhappy with Mo Rongzhan's decision to not let them follow.
Elder Zhuo held the messenger pigeon he had just received in his hand and was currently unrolling a piece of paper the size of a pinky finger. When he heard his daughter's words, he simply said indifferently, "He doesn't treat me as his master at all. What's so strange about chasing them away?"
"Father, even if Third Brother doesn't treat you as his master, you still taught him martial arts. No matter what, he has to respect you." Zhuo Su 'er said.
"This Third Senior Brother of yours …" Elder Zhuo frowned at the piece of paper in his hand and paused before he could finish.
Zhuo Su 'er was waiting for him to continue, but after a long time, she didn't hear anything. She stamped her feet and asked, "Father, what's wrong with Third Senior Brother?"
"The person Qian Luosha wants to kill is in Phoenix Vine City?" Elder Zhuo frowned thoughtfully. "It looks like we'll have to go ask around tomorrow to see what kind of extraordinary person Phoenix Vine City has."
"The person with the lifetime bounty?" Zhuo Su 'er's attention was quickly diverted.
Elder Zhuo nodded. "That's right. It's a woman."
"A woman?" Zhuo Su 'er was even more surprised. "Just which woman has the ability to make someone spend such a large sum of money to have Qian Luosha hunt her down for life?"
"The buyer has nothing to do with Qian Luosha. Search for your eldest senior brother while you search for this person," Elder Zhuo said indifferently.
Zhuo Su 'er asked with a smile, "Father, you're not planning on going yourself, are you?"
"Someone will," Elder Zhuo said.
… …
… …
After a night's rest, all of Ye Zhen's tiredness was swept away. Before Mo Rongzhan could finish dealing with the matters at hand, she had already dressed herself up as a noble young master and brought the palace maids with her to the yamen.
Ye Zhen thought that as long as she went to the yamen to see Lu Xiangzhi, she would be able to see him. She didn't expect to be met with a cold shoulder.
"Young Master, our Lord has important matters to attend to. It's not convenient for him to see you. Please return," a man dressed as a petty official said.
"Did you tell him that my surname is Lu?" Ye Zhen frowned. Lu Xiangzhi refused to see her?
"Young Master Lu, our Lord really doesn't have time to see you."
"He won't see me!" Ye Zhen snorted. "Take this jade pendant and give it to him. He'll definitely see me."
"You don't understand the meaning of courtesy, do you? It's impossible for you to plead for He Wenze. He killed someone in front of Lord Lu. Even if he's the son-in-law of the Lu Family, Lord Lu can't just sit back and do nothing, "the petty official said impatiently.
Ye Zhen didn't understand this time. "I don't understand what you're saying. I'm a guest from afar. What does killing have to do with me?"
"You … aren't you the son of Minister Lu?" The petty official looked at Ye Zhen doubtfully. Recently, the Lord had been avoiding the Lu family. When he heard that the young master's surname was Lu, he automatically thought that he was Minister Lu of Feng Wu City, a distant relative of the Lord.
"Of course not." What kind of person was Minister Lu? This was the first time she had heard of him. "Forget it, I'll go in and see Lu Xiangzhi myself."
The petty official froze for a moment and immediately stopped Ye Zhen.
"Who's making noise here?" Suddenly, a loud shout came from inside the yamen.
When Ye Zhen looked up, she saw Lu Xiangzhi coming out with his advisor. He was the one who had shouted just now.
Lu Xiangzhi didn't even look at Ye Zhen but at the petty official. "It's just asking you to drive away a person. Why is it taking so long?"
"My Lord …"
"It depends on who he is driving away." Ye Zhen looked at Lu Xiangzhi's back with a faint smile. He didn't even look at her. She didn't disguise herself today, just dressed as a man.
Lu Xiangzhi hurriedly turned back to look at Ye Zhen. "You …"
"I thought it would be easy to see you, but the door was shut in my face." Ye Zhen deliberately pretended to be angry.
"Why are you here?" Lu Xiangzhi grinned and tapped her forehead hard. "Why are you still pretending to be an old friend?"
Ye Zhen smiled and said, "I wanted to give you a surprise. Who would have thought it would be such a coincidence?"
Lu Xiangzhi looked at the advisor next to him and whispered to Ye Zhen, "I know you like to join in the fun. Come with me to handle the case."
