Hearing this, Ye Fuxun pursed his lips, thinking that this person was really boring, so he turned around and followed the example of others, shouting to the stall owner who was busy: "Boss! Here are two wontons!"
"Okay!"
Ye Fuxun smiled and held his head, looking at Bai Yuxian with a bit of pride in his eyes.
Two tables apart, in the corner, two men in black cloaks were eating glutinous rice balls with their heads lowered.
After Ye Fuxun finished speaking, the smaller figure among them seemed stunned for a moment.
Under the cloak, Nome was a little dazed.
Is she hallucinating? Why does this voice sound so much like Ye Fuxun?
How could Ye Fuxun appear here? But thinking about it carefully, her tone of voice was not quite right. She always spoke slowly and elegantly. How could she appear at such a roadside stall?
Thinking of himself appearing here, under the wooden table, under the cover of his cloak, a chain was connected from his wrist to the hand of the man next to him.
I don't know what the chain is made of. The material is extremely tough, but the weight is not large, which does not affect the movement. If it is not exposed intentionally, the large cloak can cover the chain.
She thought the man was going to take her on the journey, but instead he came to this stall, ordered two portions of glutinous rice balls, and let her sit on the table to eat them.
Although I was surprised, I didn't feel any gratitude at all. I just felt more creepy.
What on earth did this man do to her? His attitude changed so strangely?
Seeing her stop eating glutinous rice balls, the man raised his eyes and said in a low voice: "Why don't you eat it? Isn't it delicious?"
Her tone was calm and cold, so she didn't dare to talk nonsense. She just shook her head and quickly lowered her head to eat the remaining glutinous rice balls in the bowl.
The two wontons on Ye Fuxun's table were already on the table. The stall owner acted very neatly. Seeing that they didn't look like locals, he warmly got close to them.
Naturally, Bai Yuxian would not reveal his details casually, so Ye Fuxun just kept eating, and Bai Yuxian answered all the stall owner's questions in a polite and perfunctory manner.
In the end, he naturally gave a few more rewards, and the people at the two tables next to him seemed to have finished eating. The boss happily went to pay the bill, and several people walked past Ye Fuxun and Bai Yuxian intermittently.
Two people, covered in black cloaks, walked slowly past, as if they were exuding a cold air and kept strangers away.
When passing by Ye Fuxun, it seemed as if a breeze was blowing slowly, lifting up the cloak of the petite figure behind, revealing a somewhat weird face.
I can't say it's beautiful, nor can I say it's ugly. I just feel it's indescribably weird, like a painted, half-finished face, incomplete in every way.
Ye Fuxun glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, but he didn't see it clearly.
She raised her head as if she had realized something. Two figures, one large and one small, wearing cloaks, left the stall one after another, walked into the dark alley, and gradually disappeared.
Seeing Ye Fuxun staring in one direction and frowning, Bai Yuxian followed her gaze and saw nothing.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Fuxun shook his head and said with some suspicion: "It's nothing. I seemed to have seen someone just now. He looked indescribably familiar... maybe it was an illusion."
She shook her head and continued to eat the wontons in the bowl. Apart from anything else, the taste of this stall was authentic and delicious.
Nome followed the man and left, but she couldn't get rid of that figure in her mind. She was clearly wearing ordinary clothes and had an ordinary face, but the back looked very familiar, and the voice was very similar to Ye Fuxun.
The woman seemed to be walking with a man. Nome recalled that with a quick glance, the face of the man opposite the woman was lost in everyone.
How could it be possible... She must be overthinking it.
The woman whom she hated to the core of her bones was probably already enjoying the glory and wealth in the capital.
Thinking of this, Nome's heart was filled with hatred.
The more Ye Fuxun ate, the more he thought of that glimpse of a figure. For some reason, he always felt that he cared about this person. It must be said that sometimes a woman's sixth sense is very accurate.
She finished the wontons three times, five by two, and looked at Bai Yuxian and said, "There was a problem with those two people just now."
Bai Yuxian had finished eating long ago and was waiting for Ye Fuxun to chew it slowly. When he heard Ye Fuxun's words, he didn't say much. He understood what Ye Fuxun meant and went after him to have a look.
The two left a few coins on the table and chased after them without stopping.
Under the eaves, the light was blocked and the alley looked a little dark. There were no footprints left, and it was empty.
Ye Fuxun frowned. If he were an ordinary person, he would have left some traces, but these two people seemed to have disappeared. There was indeed a problem.
"Do we need to check?" Bai Yuxian asked in a low voice when he saw Ye Fuxun's frown.
Although his power will be weakened in the southern country, there are still some people who can be used if he wants to investigate some things.
Ye Fuxun thought for a while and shook his head: "Forget it, maybe I'm overthinking it. Let's continue on our way."
At this juncture, it's better not to cause unnecessary problems. Their end is still far away. If they stumble over irrelevant things, they will lose more than they gain. After all, it's the southern border, so naturally they don't care that much.
But deep down in my heart, there is always some secret uneasiness.
Bai Yuxian's power in the Southern Kingdom was weakened, but he still had certain connections. Before coming out, Bai Yuxian gave his rights to Murong Che, and Murong Che took over his manpower in the Southern Kingdom.
What surprised them was that Murong Che also had some people in the Southern Kingdom, most of whom were old ministers who survived the previous dynasty. They kept a low profile and were willing to go through fire and water for the sake of Prince Ning Lang and Murong Che. Although it was not enough to change the world, it was still a considerable force.
.
These days, Murong Che has been using his connections to look for traces of the Gu clan in the South, including some clues about the Gu clan mentioned by Ye Fulun's master wife and Yun Man.
So far, they have found nothing, and the traitor of the Gu tribe has never been found. It seems that he has disappeared from the world. Entering the southern realm, they lost the right time, place, and people. They were obviously at a disadvantage, and they couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
It's been like this for another half a month, and finally there is some news.
It is said that someone once saw a man wrapped in a black cloak, traveling through the mountains and forests, and stealing a treasure. At the same time, Murong Che also sent a message from Linyuan Pavilion.
A boy in white found them and asked them to bring them to Ye Fuxun.
Ye Fuxun found Murong Che's spies from the bank, and the man reported: "The boy in white said that the empress owed the pavilion master a favor. The pavilion master needed something and asked the empress to get it for him."
"What?"
Ye Fuxun frowned. The original request was for the dream butterfly in her body, but after the plague was suppressed, the master of Linyuan Pavilion disappeared, but this time he suddenly appeared.
