"Has there been any news from An Yue's side?" Yun Ruoleng lightly sipped the tea on the table. "We'll talk about it when he comes back."

"Yes."

"What are you talking about?" Yang Zi Ling's palm-sized face was filled with doubt, her watery eyes curiously looking at Yun Ruoleng.

Yun Ruoleng only glanced at her, then took out a piece of dried fruit from his bag and stuffed it into Yang Zi Zi Ling's mouth: "Nothing."

Was Yun Ruoleng's nervous expression really nothing? Yang Zi Zi expressed that she did not believe it, but she did not pursue it either.

After Peach Red had finished speaking, she continued, "The Prince wrote this morning saying that he will return from his stay here in the evening for two days."

Yun Ruoleng slightly frowned, "He treated the Duke Palace as an inn! "I was staying for a few days."

Peach Red pursed her lips and did not continue speaking. However, the smile in her eyes was not hidden from beginning to end. The young lady of her house had said the wrong thing, and she had been talking a lot about herself during this period of time.

After eating lunch with the first class incense, Yang Zi Ling was brought back to the Duke Palace by the people sent by Yang Xiong. On the way back, the only ones left were Yun Ruoleng and Peach Blossom. Under the enthusiastic escort of the waiter, the two walked out of the room with a pint of incense. The streets were bustling as before, and there was an endless stream of hawking noises coming from the stalls. It was as if the scene was a picture of the river in the clear.

"Miss, it's time for us to go back." Peach Red warns carefully, afraid that she will change her mind.

Yun Ruoleng only nodded, without saying a word, he immediately headed towards the direction of the Duke Palace. As he walked, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, his gaze landing on a vendor that was buying lanterns.

"What does Miss need?" The packman was excited when he saw Yun Ruoleng staring at him, thinking that Yun Ruoleng needed a lantern.

Yun Ruoleng smiled at him, turned and continued walking, this time he walked even faster. Tao Hong looked at the trader then looked at Yun Ruoleng. A question arose in her heart as she quickly chased after him.

"We're being followed." Yun Ruoleng's footsteps were light and swift, and Peach Blossom was unable to catch up to her as she jogged to her side.

"Huh?" The moment Peach Blossom heard this, her expression drastically changed.

"You're not allowed to look behind!" Yun Ruoleng stopped Peach Blossom's actions and said: "They just caught up, and have not moved yet. If you like them, then let them follow! "Don't alert the enemy."

Peach Blossom was extremely regretful. She should not have believed Yun Ruoleng's words and chased Xing Mo away. What if this group of people attacked them instead? Peach Blossom didn't believe that she had the ability to protect herself.

Yun Ruoleng was not an idiot, he naturally would not easily take action against them, and after walking a few rounds around the street, he arrived at the entrance of the Jing Zhao Yin Mansion. The corner of Peach Blossom's mouth twitched a few times as she looked at the large signboard.

"Who is it?" The guard standing at the door snapped.

Yun Ruoleng took off an identity plate from Peach Blossom's body and handed it over to the guard. The guard respectfully returned it to Yun Ruoleng after looking at it: "Please wait, this subordinate will go inform the old master right away."

Yun Ruoleng slightly nodded, as if he remembered something, and muttered to the guard. The guard's gaze fell on a spot, and he nodded.

Peach Blossom and Yun Ruoleng were immediately invited into the Jing Zhao Yin's mansion, the guards just now led a group of people out quickly, and in a short while, the people following them were all brought back.

Yun Ruoleng stood at the entrance of the mansion and looked at the structure of the Jing Zhao Yin's mansion carefully. Although it was not big, he could feel the warmth.

"Miss, you … "Incredible." Peach Red looked at the person who was escorted back and could not help but give Yun Ruoleng a big thumbs up.

"You flatter me!" Yun Ruoleng did not have any intention to refuse, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, with a smile that was not a smile he looked at the person who was being escorted back: "Who sent you to follow him?"

"Did you misunderstand something? We are just commoners passing by. How did we become trackers? " One of them had a full beard, while the other had a scar on his face. Yun Ruoleng looked at the clothes they were wearing and suddenly laughed.

The two big sized fellows felt their hairs stand on end when they heard the laughter, and the eyes that they looked at Yun Ruoleng with were a little panicked. Yun Ruoleng slightly tilted his head. "It's already not important who sent you guys, but you have to pay a price to follow this wangfei. Go back and tell your master, this wangfei doesn't like playing hide-and-seek.

The guard and Peach Blossom did not understand what Yun Ruoleng was saying, but the look in their eyes changed into one of fear. Fortunately, the two of them were smart and didn't say much.

Yun Ruoleng did not punish them, and just waved them off. After they left, Peach Blossom could no longer resist asking, "Miss, aren't you afraid of their revenge?"

"Do they dare?" Yun Ruoleng scoffed, and waved to the guards: "Thank you for your trouble today, Peach Blossom!"

"Oh!" Peach Blossom took out a stack of silver notes, each worth a hundred silver taels. She handed them over to the others, "Everyone, please buy some wine to drink."

The guards looked at the number on their hands and were shocked. They all knew that the rich gave a lot of rewards, but after seeing the wangfei make a move, they understood that she was truly generous.

For Yun Ruoleng's safety, the guards were split into two groups. One group continued to stand guard, and the other sent Yun Ruoleng and Peach Blossom back to the Regent’s Mansion.

After Jun Qingshang returned to the Duke Palace after leaving the capital for half a month, it wasn't easy for him to find out that his wife wasn't present. After Jun Qingshang asked Uncle Pu, he was both angry and amused, so he didn't stay long and directly went to the palace to discuss things with Jun Rushi.

Seeing that Jun Qingshang had left, Uncle Pu immediately sent people to look for him. His wife had been running out the house recently, and if news of his return got out that she was not even at home, what would happen then?

He did not know if it was because of their mutual understanding, but Yun Ruoleng could see Treading on Snow from afar. It was clear that Treading on Snow also saw him, and happily galloped over to him. Tao Hong was shocked, she grabbed Yun Ruoleng and anxiously leaned on the side of the road, her gaze fiercely staring at Treading on the snow that was stopped in front of them: "Are you crazy!"

"Alright!" Yun Ruoleng laughed and looked at Peach Blossom who was trying to protect herself: "Treading on the snow also feels excited about us, let's go in first!"

"Yes sir!" Peach Blossom didn't forget to glare at Treading Snow before she left. Treading on the snow felt the angry gaze, proudly raising the horse's head, as if to say: "What can you do to me?"

Yun Ruoleng patted its head and laughed, then pulled its reins towards the door. Coincidentally, Jun Qingshang came out of the house at this time, and seeing the veiled lady, he was first startled, then his expression became serious: "You're bringing Peach Blossom along?"

"Yes." Yun Ruoleng walked up the stairs, without waiting for him to curse, "An Yue has been arranged to run some errands, and may be back later."

"Are you alright?" Jun Qingshang carefully sized up the girl in front of him, he saw that other than her becoming thinner, there was no other change. Even so, Jun Qingshang couldn't help but frown a little.
