Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, Xin You said loudly: "Everyone did a great job, beyond my expectation!"

 The originally quiet team began to buzz.

“Did you hear that? The girl said we did a better job than she expected!”

 “No more complaints tomorrow!”

 …

“Everyone, be quiet!” the Sixth Master yelled.

Xin You smiled and waved his hand: "I will treat everyone to a stew tonight, and you can eat as much as you want."

 The cheers sounded like thunder.

 A somewhat childish voice in the team shouted: "Girl, we will do better when you come next time!"

 “That’s right!” Many people echoed.

The Sixth Master glanced in that direction and explained with a smile: "That boy's name is Peanut. Although he is quite tall, he is actually less than fourteen years old."

 “Let everyone go about their business.”

As soon as the Sixth Master shouted, the people gathered in the open space quickly dispersed, but they couldn't help but turn around before leaving, wanting to take a few more glances at Xin You.

“Girl, let’s go into the house and talk—” The Sixth Master paused, his eyes moving from the Jinlin Guard being carried by Qianfeng to the Jinlin Guard being carried by Ping An.

What's happening here?

Xin You finally got free and looked at the two prisoners.

At this glance, a new picture suddenly appeared.

In the picture, the two people in front of him were being punished, but what attracted Xin You's attention most was not the two of them, but the person who was sitting expressionlessly watching them being punished.

 This is a familiar face—Feng Nian, the commander of Jinlin Guards.

The scene disappeared. Xin You looked at the two men dressed as ordinary people and confirmed their identities as Jinlin Guards.

 “Take him to the house to talk first.”

After Xin You spoke, the Sixth Master led the way and the group went to the meeting hall.

Xin You sat down and looked at the two people who were pushed to the ground: "Who are you and why are you following me?"

The two Jinlin Guards looked at each other, their eyes changing slightly.

Has it been discovered long ago?

 “Girl, I’m asking you, please speak!” Xiaoba kicked him over.

 In this respect, he has much advantages over Qianfeng and Ping'an.

Anger flashed in the eyes of Jin Linwei who was kicked, and he lowered his head and begged for mercy: "We are just curious to see so many people shouting so loudly-"

“Just curious?” Xin You smiled, “Then who are you?”

 “A passing hunter.”

 “Passing by Orion? Where does that family live?”

 Two people and one stagnant.

 They are also good at stalking people and have never been in this situation. No amount of lies can stop me from being asked such detailed questions!

"It's okay not to tell. I have a friend who is the envoy of Jinlin Weibei Town. I will send you to the Beizhen Fusi when I return to the city next time and ask him to help ask."

 When they heard that they were going to be sent to Beizhen to appease the envoy, the two Jinlin Guards were dumbfounded.

Although they are not from Beizhen Fusi, they also know how scary Beizhen Fusi is. If they really go in and can't stand the interrogation, things will get serious.

One of the Jinlin Guards forced a smile: "The flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple. We belong to the Jinlin Guards."

“Oh?” Xinyou raised his eyebrows in surprise.

 The Sixth Master and others also looked surprised, but they were really surprised.

"The two of us were ordered to run an errand in secret. When we passed by and saw such a big movement, we decided to investigate out of habit..." It was absolutely impossible to come here specifically to investigate under Feng Nian's order. Then they would be dead.

Xin You looked at the two of them expressionlessly and began to think.

It's definitely a lie that he just happened to come over to investigate, but I don't know whether these two people came to visit out of Feng Nian's personal plan or because they were ordered by that person.

  No matter which one it is, since it has been discovered, it would be a pity not to use one.

“Sixth brother, I promise you to make arrangements for extra meals in the evening. I have something to do here and will go back to the city first.”

The sixth master hurriedly said: "Girl, go and do your own business. The little man at Zhuangzi will make arrangements."

There was an extra carriage when we returned, and Qianfeng was responsible for guarding the two Jinlin guards.

 After entering the city, Xinyou went straight to the palace.

Emperor Xingyuan was planning to ask Feng Nian to learn about his daughter's latest news, when he heard a report from his chamberlain that Miss Xin wanted to see him.

 “Please come in quickly.”

Soon Xin You was brought in by the chamberlain.

 “I have met His Majesty.”

"No courtesy." Emperor Xingyuan called Xinyou with a smile. Seeing her frown, the smile on his lips dropped, "Did something happen to Ayou?"

 “I really encountered a problem and I don’t know how to deal with it appropriately.”

"What's up?"

"This morning I accompanied Aunt Fang to pay homage to Miss Kou - oh, Aunt Fang was Miss Kou's nanny. After that, I thought it was not far from the farm given to me by Your Majesty, so I went to have a look on the spur of the moment. Unexpectedly, I caught two The person following the minister.”

"Is this happening?" Emperor Xingyuan had a bad premonition.

 Could it be that Feng Nian arranged to inquire about Ayou's movements?

Xin You raised his eyes slightly, with confusion and grievance in his eyes: "What I didn't expect is that they are actually Jinlin Guards. They said they were passing by on errands to take a look."

Emperor Xingyuan’s mouth twitched.

It’s strange that Ayou can believe this kind of excuse.

Sure enough, I heard Xin You say: "I don't really believe it, but I heard that Jinlin Guards often have secret errands, and I can't force them to tell them. After thinking about it, I had to come to your Majesty."

"These bastards!" Emperor Xingyuan ordered his servants with a dark face, "Send the command of Jinlin Guards to send Feng Nian to the palace."

 Feng Nian hurried over without waiting for too long. When he saw Emperor Xingyuan's face and Xin You's presence, he felt a drum in his heart.

“Today Ayou went to the farm on the outskirts of Beijing and found two people following her, who admitted to being Jin Linwei. Feng Nian, do you know what happened?”

 Feng Nian’s pupils trembled.

 His people were discovered? Why are you so stupid?

And Your Majesty, do you want me to carry such a heavy pot alone?

These thoughts turned around in an instant, and Feng Nian quickly lowered his head and apologized: "I took it upon myself to arrange for people to pay attention to the bandits who were recruited, and caused misunderstanding to Miss Xin. Please forgive me."

Emperor Xingyuan slapped Long An: "Feng Nian, you are so brave!"

 “I am guilty.” Feng Nian admitted his mistake very happily.

Seeing this, Xin You spoke: "I can understand what Commander Feng did. It's just that they are my people now. I hope Master Feng can trust them more and not look at them like bandits all the time."

Seeing Feng Nian readily admitting his mistake, Xin You knew that this was the emperor's order. If she holds on to him, it will be beneficial to Feng Nian who takes the blame.

She chose to expose it gently, at least an impression of incompetence would be left in that person's mind, and it would also be a small relief for Mr. He and her.

She has not forgotten that Xiao Lengshi, the governor of Yuannan Town who tortured her in the first place, was someone Feng Nian valued.

"Since they are Lord Feng's subordinates, I will send them to the Jinlin Guard Yamen." Xin You said magnanimously, "Your Majesty, once the matter is clear, I will retire."

 “Okay, you go back and have a good rest.”

Xin You didn't hold on to let Emperor Xingyuan breathe a sigh of relief. When she left, he looked at Feng Nian with a serious expression.
