Rushing overnight, it had been a few days since Cang Jiuyao and his party returned to the Huaifeng realm.

Cang Jiuyao, who returned to Huaifeng, finally stopped being in such a hurry, relieving a little fatigue of the team.

At night, staying in an inn in a small county town in Huaifeng, Cang Jiuyao ordered in a deep voice: "Divide into three teams as usual and take turns to keep vigil." ”

The people who accompanied him didn't dare to say much, so they could only take orders.

But in private, I couldn't help but complain a little: "Along the way, it seems to be rushing and urging my life, and now I have to be so careful when I enter Huaifeng, and I don't know who the eldest lady wants to watch out for, they have all returned to Huaifeng, will anyone still try to misbehave?" ”

"Who said it wasn't, but we as subordinates can only obey orders, and we will do what the master says, how can we speak."

……

In the room, Cang Jiuyao washed her face, took the handkerchief handed by Qianxun and asked, "Is Mu Yan back?"

"Not yet." Chihiro replied as she took the handkerchief.

"If he returns, no matter how late, let him come to me at once." Cang Jiuyao commanded in a deep voice.

Since Deyang came out, Cang Jiuyao's expression has been a little dignified, and it is rare to see her smile.

"Yes." The leader of Chihiro's jaw commanded, and he wanted to say something, but when he saw Cang Jiuyao rubbing his eyebrows tiredly, he swallowed the words in his mouth.

Late at night.

Cang Jiuyao, who was already sleeping lightly, was woken up by a knock on the door: "What's the matter?"

"Master, Mu Yan is back." Chihiro's voice came from outside the door.

Cang Jiuyao immediately sat up, put on his coat and lit the candlelight in the room: "Let him in." ”

In the silence of the night, there was a soft sound of the wooden door, and Mu Yan walked in.

Cang Jiu Yao poured himself a cup of tea, raised his eyes and swept Mu Yan: "Injured?" ”

There was a finger-long cut on Mu Yan's left arm, although he saw blood, but the wound should not be deep.

"Skin trauma, it's not in the way." Mu Yan said respectfully.

"What did you find?" Under the dim candlelight, Cang Jiuyao's face flickered brightly and darkly.

"The subordinates have been secretly following the master, and they have not found anything suspicious from Deyang to the Huaifeng border, but not long after entering the Huaifeng territory, the subordinates found that someone was secretly following the master."

Cang Jiuyao frowned: "Go on." ”

"The subordinates did not act rashly, but kept secretly staring at the group, and found that they did not want to assassinate the master, it seemed that they were just investigating the whereabouts of the master."

"What's the matter with your injuries?" Cang Jiuyao's expression was uncertain, and he asked in a deep voice.

"This ...... It was his subordinates who encountered a few bandits on the road. ”

Cang Jiuyao saw that Mu Yan wanted to speak and stopped, but he didn't continue to ask, only asked him: "That group of people are still following?" ”

Mu Yan bowed: "Yes." The subordinates inevitably found out and took advantage of the night detour to report to the master. ”

Cang Jiuyao nodded, and after a thoughtful silence for a while, he instructed Mu Yan: "You continue to stare secretly, and wait until we return to Huaifeng City to see how some people react." ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

Mu Yan was ordered to leave.

Cang Jiuyao stopped him again: "Wait." ”

"What else does the master command?" Mu Yan turned around.

Cang Jiuyao threw a small porcelain bottle into Mu Yan's hand: "Let Qianxun help you bandage your wounds before leaving." ”

Mu Yan grabbed the porcelain vase, listened to Cang Jiuyao's words, paused with the hand holding the porcelain vase, and then bowed: "Thank you, master." ”

Cang Jiuyao waved his hand: "Go ahead." ”
