Commander Ding shook his head. "We don't know yet. It's impossible for me to go out and investigate. Godmother Zhou, clear the secret passage and prepare to cover the princess' retreat. "
The madam of the Tingyu Tower, Nanny Zhou, was loyal to the royal family. "Don't worry, Lord Commander. It's not the first time the Tingyu Tower has faced this kind of interrogation."
"I'll go out and have a look." Qin Yi suggested.
Commander Ding hurriedly stopped him. "No! Young Master Qin, the princess's safety is more important than anything else. If you go out rashly, you may put the princess in danger. "
Qin Yi didn't like to hear this. But for the sake of Jiang Xinyue, Qin Yi didn't say anything. He smiled faintly and stepped aside.
"Princess, let's go first." Commander Ding was a little anxious and urged Jiang Xinyue.
"No hurry." Jiang Xinyue said, "We've been to the Tingyu Tower more than once or twice. Nanny Zhou's arrangements are very appropriate every time. Now in the whole capital, which place isn't searched and inspected? It's not necessarily for me. "
Jiang Xinyue was actually reluctant to part with Qin Yi so soon. Moreover, she planned to discuss the plan to go to White Deer Mountain with Qin Yi.
Even Commander Ding didn't know about the inheritance relic and the Imperial Ancestral Temple in White Deer Mountain.
It wasn't easy to meet Qin Yi. Jiang Xinyue naturally didn't want to say goodbye in a hurry. After this goodbye, who knew how they would contact each other next time?
Qin Yi seemed to know Jiang Xinyue's thoughts. He whispered something in Jiang Xinyue's ear.
Jiang Xinyue was slightly surprised. She pondered for a moment and finally nodded. She looked at Qin Yi. "Be careful."
Qin Yi smiled leisurely. "I'm working for the Yun family now. It's safe. "
Seeing Qin Yi's relaxed attitude and smile, Jiang Xinyue was also influenced by him. She smiled and nodded. "Commander Ding and I will go first."
Commander Ding was a little surprised. He knew Jiang Xinyue's temper. If Jiang Xinyue said she was not in a hurry, she really didn't want to leave now.
Commander Ding didn't think he could change Jiang Xinyue's decision, so he kept his mouth shut.
He didn't expect that Qin Yi's whisper could make Jiang Xinyue change her mind. Commander Ding was surprised and looked thoughtfully at Qin Yi.
Nanny Zhou to the madam and they hurried into the secret passage.
After entering the secret passage, Commander Ding whispered, "Seventh Princess, what did Young Master Qin say to you?"
Jiang Xinyue's expression froze. "Commander Ding, aren't you asking too much?"
Commander Ding's expression turned serious. "My duty is to protect the princess. I can't let go of any suspicious clues. "
"Qin Yi is from the same sect as me and is my best friend. Do you think he will harm me? "
"It's not that I suspect he will harm you. It's just that he's young and successful. Sometimes, young people don't consider things carefully and might implicate the princess, "Commander Ding said.
Jiang Xinyue was stunned. "You're thinking too much. He's a young man who can survive in the Forsaken Land of the Gods alone and fool the Dao foundation cultivators. We can't put him in the same category as ordinary young people. "
It was obvious that Jiang Xinyue was very protective of Qin Yi.
Commander Ding obviously understood the meaning behind this and immediately shut his mouth obediently. He knew Jiang Xinyue's temper. If he continued, he might anger the princess.
As a subject, Commander Ding's loyalty was beyond doubt.
…
Madam Zhou returned to the secret room. When she saw Qin Yi, she smiled faintly.
"Young Master Yi, I'm curious. You're a guest of our Tingyu House, but you're also a rogue cultivator recruited by the Shi family. However, you can talk happily with the Seventh Princesses and win the trust of the Seventh Princesses. This old woman can't help but have a whole new level of respect for this exquisite method. It seems that Young Master Yi's charm halo is really extraordinary. Whether it's the ladies of our Tingyu House or the princess of the royal family, they all seem to be very interested in you. "
"I can't help but wonder if Young Master Yi is really from Ziluo Country?"
The madam was obviously a smart person. She said half of the sentence and left the other half unsaid. She seemed to be talking in riddles, but she actually meant something.
Qin Yi smiled faintly, "Godmother Zhou controls such a big Tingyu House. Who would have thought that the owner of the number one brothel in the capital is a spy and a loyal follower of the royal family?"
The madam sighed softly, "I have all this thanks to the royal family of the Jiang family. What I'm doing now is not even one-tenth of the grace of the royal family of the Jiang family. It's nothing. "
"Godmother is too modest. As the saying goes, a long journey tests a horse's stamina. The royal family of the Jiang family has cultivated a lot of forces, but most of them have become fence-sitters. It's even more commendable that godmother can do this. "
"Young Master, you flatter me. I don't know the relationship between you and the Seventh Princesses, nor do I know what your plan is. But there is one thing I have to remind you. Don't be fooled by the fact that the Yun family seems to delegate everything to the Shi family. This may not be a positive signal. The Yun family hiding behind them may be even more terrifying. "
In fact, Qin Yi had thought of this before.
Qin Yi suddenly asked, "Godmother, speaking of the Yun family, you should know more than me since you are in the Tingyu Tower. How much power does the Yun family have? "
"The Yun family's power is definitely inferior to the Jiang family. Because of the death of Yun Feng and Yun Chong, the Yun family's Patriarch's authority in the Yun family has weakened. But the older generation of the Yun family is called the Nine Elders of the Yun family. These nine elders are all pillars of the Yun family. Among the nine elders, the top three elders were especially outstanding. The forces under them are also the most outstanding. "
"Oh? Who are these three elders? "
"The First Elder Yun Long is like a mysterious dragon, more mysterious than the Patriarch. The Second Elder Yun Qian is relatively low-key, but he's a master of making a fortune in silence. The Third Elder Yun Chen is the most active in the Yun family, and also the most powerful. He's currently the number one person in charge of the Yun family's affairs. The other six elders are relatively weaker in the Yun family. Some are loyal to the Patriarch's bloodline, while some are loyal to the Three Great Elders. "
"Originally, the Three Great Elders could not be compared to the Patriarch's bloodline. But the unexpected death of Yun Chong and Yun Feng in the Forsaken Land of the Gods had a huge impact on the Yun family. It also caused the Patriarch's bloodline to lose the initiative. The Three Great Elders stood out. Some people say that the Yun family's attack on the Jiang family was not decided by the Yun family's Patriarch, but by the Three Great Elders. "
This madam actually did not hide anything from Qin Yi and generously shared the information with Qin Yi.
Qin Yi silently digested the information and asked curiously, "Godmother, how strong are the Three Great Elders?"
"They're all at the Dao foundation realm, but they're only at the high levels. It's said that the First Elder's cultivation has almost reached the eighth level of the Dao foundation realm. The Second and Third Elders are both at the seventh level of the Dao foundation realm. "
