The carriage finally arrived at the city gate.
The Saint King’s aura in Yu Wan’s body was temporarily hidden. The guards guarding tne City (lid not notice anytmng, Dut even so, tne guaras or tne Sorcerer Clan were much stricter than before.
A guard blocked the carriage’s path. “Who’s sitting inside?”
The Second Madam lifted the curtain and looked at the guard angrily. ‘You don’t even recognize the Wen Manor’s carriage?”
The guard was stunned. He was in a hurry to stop the carriage and really didn’t notice the emblem on the carriage. He retreated to confirm and hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed. “So it’s Mrs. Wen. I was careless. Please don’t take offense.”
“I’m going out of town.”
“Uh…” The guard looked at the Second Madam strangely. “May I ask why you’re leaving the city?”
The Second Madam said indifferently, “I heard that there are a lot of new things from other villages and want to go shopping. Why? Am I not allowed?”
The guard hurriedly said politely, “No, no. How would I dare to obstruct Mrs. Wen’s whereabouts? However, there have been many disasters in the clan recently. After all, the outsiders are all people from the countryside. I’m afraid it’s not safe. Please think twice, Mrs. Wen.”
Dawa lifted the curtain and said angrily, “What’s not safe with me accompanying her?”
The guard was stunned again. “Lord Wen is here too?”
Dawa said sarcastically, “If I’m not around, I wouldn’t even know that the people of my Wen Manor would be stopped when they leave the city. I wonder what their expressions will be when this matter reaches the ears of the Sorcerer Queen and the Great Elder.”
When the guard heard this, he immediately panicked. He hurriedly cupped his hands and apologized. “Lord Wen, please forgive me! I was only following orders. It was the Sorcerer Queen who ordered everyone who left the city to be investigated strictly. Lord Wen, you must also know that there are spies in the clan. Not only did that group of spies barge into the palace, but they also once kidnapped His Highness, Ye Yang. Although His Highness has been found, if the spies are not caught for a day, the Sorcerer Clan will not be at peace for a day. I hope Lord Wen can understand our difficulties.”
In other words, even if they were willing to let them out of the city, they had to do a routine inspection.
This was the Wen Manor’s people. It was the Sorcerer Queen’s maternal family. It was impossible for them to do this if they did not have the Sorcerer Queen’s instructions. However, it was not entirely true that the Sorcerer Queen was targeting her maternal family. However, the Sorcerer Queen was indeed angry and would not let go of any small flaw.
“Then search,” Dawa said.
“Sorry!” With that, the guard walked towards Dawa’s carriage.
Dawa’s coachman was Zhou Yuyan, who was disguised as a man. On the other hand, Mu Qing was sitting in the carriage dressed as a woman. Mu Qing lowered his eyes, not letting anyone notice his strange pupils.
The guard glanced at Mu Qing.
Second Madam said unhappily, “Why are you staring at my maidservant?” The guard said, “Ah, Mrs. Wen, this maidservant is a little unfamiliar.”
As the mistress of the Wen Manor, even if she and Wen Xu were not on good terms and were living a widow’s life, her status in the clan was still very outstanding. She had attended many important occasions and had always brought Hong Yu along. The guard had seen Hong Yu before and felt that this maidservant did not look like her.
Mu Qing clenched his fists quietly.
The Second Madam’s hand gently rested on his.
The Second Madam’s hand was a little warm and soft, with the gentleness of a woman. She was not as strong as a man, but at this moment, she could inexplicably calm people down.
Mu Qing felt that he was no longer nervous. However, Dawa felt uncomfortable.
‘l’nat was not a real maidservant’. He was a DOY! HOW could wanrou toucn a boy’s hand?!
Dawa’s eyes widened, making the guard suspect that he was hallucinating.
What did Lord Wen Xu see? Why did he look like he wanted to eat someone?
Second Madam said calmly, “I have so many maidservants. I can bring whoever I want. Do you even care about this?”
“No, no!” The guard was embarrassed.
“Guard, are you looking for me?” In the carriage behind, Yu Wan lifted the curtain. She had disguised herself as Hong Yu. Beside her sat Yan Jiuchao, Zhou Jin, and the unconscious Sorcerer King. The coachman was Shadow Thirteen. When the guard saw the familiar face, he smiled awkwardly and walked towards Yu Wan.
Yu Wan lifted the curtain and openly let him check. The guard looked in and met Zhou Jin’s eyes as expected. The guard was in a daze.
“They’re all maidservants and stewards of the manor.”
Such a thought appeared in the guard’s mind. He walked to the third carriage in a daze and lifted the curtain to take a look. “Yes, it’s indeed the steward..”
