Chapter 133 Dark under the lamp
"I can only stay in the capital for the time being. I can't just rush to die." Ning Miao sighed.
Pursing her lips and thinking for a while, she asked Nie Huan: "Where do you think is the safest place in the capital? Or, where do you think the King of Kang is least likely to go?"
"What do you want?" Nie Huan asked her back.
"I definitely can't leave the capital for a while. I have to find a safe place to stay and take good care of my baby. The place where King Kang is least likely to go is the safest place."
Nie Huan was silent for a moment, then answered, "Marquis Yongchang's Mansion."
Ning Miao: “…”
Seeing her speechless face, Nie Huan smiled: "Isn't it? Prince Kang will definitely not set foot in Yan Mobai's mansion, right?"
Ning Miao glanced at her and said, "He won't step in, but I can't step in either. The eldest daughter-in-law of the Marquis's Mansion is already dead."
"Then, Prince Ning's Mansion." Nie Huan said again.
Ning Miao shook his head: "Ning Wang Mansion is not an option either. This kind of place is not only difficult to enter, but once you enter you have to be screened all the time to prevent others from being spies. They will be discovered very quickly."
"Then I can't think of where." Nie Huan looked helpless.
Ning Miao pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, there is another place, but it's not easy to get in."
"where?"
"Dali Temple." Ning Miao said.
Nie Huan's eyes lit up: "Oh, that's right, why didn't I think of that? The Dali Temple, like the Marquis' Mansion, is also Yan Mobai's territory. Prince Kang will not easily set foot there."
"The difference between the Dali Temple and the Marquis' Mansion is that the people in the Marquis' Mansion know you and are familiar with you, but the people in the Dali Temple are not familiar with you. Besides, Yan Mobai is only on official business in the Dali Temple and does not live there. It is relatively safe for you."
"Not bad, not bad. This is what they call 'the darkest place is under the lamp'. Yan Mobai would never have thought that you are right under his nose. I think that's great." Nie Huan agreed very much.
Ning Miao nodded: "Yes, it's good. Yan Mobai doesn't spend much time in the Dali Temple every day. There are many departments and people in the Dali Temple, so the chance of meeting him is very small."
"But I can't get in!" Ning Miao spread his hands.
Nie Huan remembered something.
"There is a chance, but I don't know if you are willing?"
Ning Miao immediately became alert: "What opportunity?"
"The wife of Manager Liu of my shop works in the kitchen of Dali Temple. I heard her yesterday that Dali Temple is looking for maids to clean the house. Are you willing to do such a job?"
"Of course I am willing!" Ning Miao said repeatedly.
What’s important now is saving her life and the fetus. If she wants to stay alive, why should she choose a job?
Besides, it’s just sweeping and cleaning, and it’s not strenuous work. It’s much easier than putting in all your effort and worrying about everything.
Seeing her like this, Nie Huan nodded: "Okay, then I'll ask for you."
"Well, by the way, can I ask if I can stay at the Dali Temple?"
"It should be possible. I heard that there are many people living in their kitchen."
"Great."
"Then I'll just say you're a relative of an old friend of mine. I can't say you're a distant relative, to prevent someone from asking about it and exposing the truth to my family."
"Well, let's talk about a relative of an old friend. Her husband just died and she has no one to rely on, so she came to the capital to seek a living." Ning Miao said.
Nie Huan smiled: "Okay."
Get up immediately.
Ning Miao remembered something and reminded him, "By the way, just say I'm a mute."
So as not to reveal the truth through sound.
-
Yan Mobai and Chi Feng wandered around the street until the lights came on, and then wandered around until all the shops turned off and closed.
The two of them wandered around the entire capital city without waiting for Ning Miao to contact them secretly.
The master and servant met in the center of the street.
Yan Mobai looked at Chi Feng, and Chi Feng shook his head.
At that moment, Yan Mobai suddenly realized that the woman might have left him.
She disguised Lingling as herself, perhaps not only to deceive everyone and frame King Kang, but also to trick him into leaving her.
Otherwise it would be impossible not to contact him all the time.
He was panicking, but he still held on to hope.
Maybe he misjudged her thinking and she has already returned to the Marquis' Mansion?
After all, you can't judge her with ordinary people's thinking.
After all, she can disguise herself and perform martial arts.
After all, no one would have thought that she would return to the Marquis' Mansion, so it was more likely that she would return there.
After all, meeting him in his Fuxueyuan is the safest place.
Yes, she might already be in Fuxueyuan.
He immediately called Chi Feng, "Go back home."
The master and servant hurried back to the marquis's mansion and went straight to Fuxue Garden.
As soon as he stepped into the garden gate, he saw Lan Ying, who looked anxious and walked towards him quickly, and he became more convinced that this was the case.
He immediately signaled Chifeng to close the gate of the garden.
"Sir, where have you been and why did you come back just now?" Lan Ying asked anxiously.
Yan Mobai glanced at him and waited for him to continue.
Lan Ying hurriedly said, "Everything that you ordered has been done. The basement has been destroyed and the Zhang family has been dealt with. Please rest assured."
Seeing that Lan Ying had nothing else to say after reporting, Yan Mobai looked in the direction of his study and wing rooms again.
It was pitch dark and there was no light, and his heart sank.
"No one has been here?" he asked.
"The eldest lady came and said that there was a rumor outside that... the eldest lady was killed in the palace. She came to ask if it was true?" Lan Ying replied.
Finally, I couldn't help but carefully confirm: "Sir, is this true?"
He heard it too, but he didn't believe it.
Yan Mobai pursed his lips, his heart sinking to the bottom.
Therefore, she did not come to Fuxueyuan.
Could it be that he returned to his own Fangfei Garden?
After all, Chunlan is the only servant in Fangfei Garden, and Chunlan is loyal to her and will not spread the news.
He immediately turned around and walked out, scaring Lan Ying and Chi Feng.
Not knowing where he was going, the two hurriedly followed him: "Sir..."
"No need to follow me!" Yan Mobai said in a deep voice. Without turning back, he opened the gate and walked out.
Chi Feng and Lan Ying were left standing there, looking at each other.
"What happened? Is the lady really...gone?" Lan Ying asked.
Chi Feng pursed his lips and was silent, motioning him: "Let's go, let's talk in the side room."
-
Yan Mobai came to Fangfei Garden and saw that the light was still on in Ning Miao's room in Fangfei Garden. Hope instantly rose in his heart.
After looking around and making sure it was safe, he raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.
The sound of hurried footsteps in the room rushing towards the door made his heart beat faster.
The door was opened from the inside: "Madam..."
Chunlan's excited face came into view.
He was stunned, and Chunlan was also stunned.
"Second Young Master." The excitement on Chunlan's face faded and she quickly saluted him.
Yan Mobai walked in.
There was no one else in the room.
The bedding on the bed was neatly folded.
He turned around and asked Chunlan: "Are you waiting for your wife?"
Chunlan nodded.
"I heard people in the palace talking about how the Madam... the Madam met with an unexpected accident in the palace. I don't believe it."
When she said this, Chunlan's eyes were already red.
She mustered up her courage and looked up at Yan Mobai: "Second Young Master, they are talking nonsense, right?"
