Han Zhong looked at Luoyi. He couldn’t see his face clearly in the dark, but he could still feel the hostility radiating from him.
"You wait a mont, I’ll go and ask if my young miss knows you!"
"Hmm," Luoyi nodded his head.
In recent days, his master had been acting oddly, and though Han Zhong did not understand why, after a few words with Luo’er, it all beca clear to him.
Han Zhong entered the main house of the guesthouse. Yun Jinnian and Han Tianci were still reading, while Hei and Henuan slept sweetly on the quilted bedding on the floor, prompting a slight chuckle from Han Zhong.
Those two foolish girls were not unworthy of Yun Jinnian’s sisterly affection, always thinking of the best for them and wanting to share her portion.
"Young Miss!"
Yun Jinnian looked up at Han Zhong, "Uncle Zhong, have they arrived?"
"It’s not those people who’ve arrived, but a guard from Prince Rui Residence nad Luoyi. Young Miss, do you know him?" Han Zhong whispered.
So as not to wake Hei and Henuan.
Wherever Luoyi was, Chu Yu was certainly there as well.
And Prince Yanjun ca to mind.
Yun Jinnian guessed that Chu Yu might be escorting Prince Yanjun to Nanjiang and by chance, were also staying at this guesthouse.
Yun Jinnian nodded, "Uncle Zhong, I know him. I’ll speak with him!"
"Yes!"
Yun Jinnian set down her book, got up to tidy her clothes, and then left the room, heading for the courtyard entrance.
Han Zhong walked beside her, holding a lantern.
Luoyi, who awaited by the door, felt as though in a blur, saw Yun Jinnian approaching gracefully, looking very pleasing to the eye.
"Luoyi!"
Yun Jinnian’s light and indifferent voice brought Luoyi back to his senses, and he quickly responded, "My respects to Miss Yun the Fourth!"
"Luoyi, are His Highness and the Commandery Prince also staying at this guesthouse?" Yun Jinnian asked.
"To answer the Fourth Miss, yes, they are!"
Yun Jinnian had intended to let Han Zhong settle things privately with the Azure Dragon Sect, but now that Chu Yu and the others had arrived, a public judgnt would be more appropriate.
She turned to Han Zhong and said, "Uncle Zhong, please go and et with His Highness Prince Rui and discuss our current situation with him!"
Han Zhong also felt it was better to let Prince Rui handle the matter, "Hmm, you rest. I’ll go and co back quickly!"
"Alright!"
When Luoyi returned to Chu Yu and was joined by Han Zhong, they learned that Yun Jinnian was staying in the next room over, which made Chu Yu’s heart bloom with joy. However, he suppressed his emotions and, after listening to Han Zhong’s account, imdiately understood the situation, "No wonder the Magistrate was so frightened upon seeing . That explains it!"
Without saying much else, Chu Yu instructed, "Luoyi, take n to take down the Azure Dragon Sect!"
"Yes!"
After giving a bow and salute, Han Zhong returned to his quarters.
Looking after him, Chu Yu felt a twinge of disappointnt. How nice it would have been if Jinnian had co.
But at this late hour, she wouldn’t co out.
"Your Highness, do we kill them all?" Luoyi asked.
After all, not everyone in a sect is evil.
There are a few good ones, forced onto this crooked path.
Just as Chu Yu was about to speak, he sensed several people approaching, and not just one or two.
"It seems your kindness is not appreciated. Rember to take captives, for tomorrow, I want all of Hongchou City’s people to see those who oppress the common folk and force good people into prostitution et their end with nothing but death. The heavens are clear, retribution is certain; it isn’t that revenge never cos, only that the ti hasn’t arrived yet. Karma cycles, and heaven spares no one!"
Luoyi nodded. He and Luo’er led the twenty hidden guards to apprehend Sun Wang and his group of thirty, binding them with ropes, gagging them, and leaving them at the guesthouse entrance.
They directed the Shopkeeper to lead, and the guesthouse workers to clang copper gongs through the streets while announcing, "Sun Wang, the leader of the Azure Dragon Sect, audaciously attempted to assassinate His Highness Prince Rui and has been captured. He will be publicly questioned at the Prefectural Governor’s Office tomorrow morning. All those with grievances, co to seek your revenge!"
