Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart Chapter 154: Come Over and Greet

The Central Governor understood him, patted him on the shoulder, and consoled, "Old Yuan, there’s nothing much we can do about it, the Emperor won’t be leaving for another hour, if you’re lucky, you might still get to see him."

It started as consolation, but then it took a different turn.

Ye Yuan: ...

Ye Zhi stepped forward, hiding behind her father, her small body poking out halfway, looking at the tall, strong man with a two-pronged mustache in front of her, and asked, "Dad, who is this?"

Father Ye introduced with ease, "Co, Ah Zhi, let introduce you, he’s a colleague of mine, nad Gu Ping, you can call him Uncle Ping."

He gestured to his son behind him, indicating for him to co over: "Co, Lin’er hasn’t seen Uncle Ping in a long ti either, co greet him."

Ye Lin, who was nad, had a twitch at the corner of his mouth.

Could he refuse?

In the end, he walked over and politely said, "Uncle Ping..."

Ye Zhi, on the other hand, didn’t show the sa reluctance as her brother. In her mory, her father, as an official, never put on airs, and she seldom saw other officials. Uncle Ping in front of her wore armor and carried a sword, standing there, only feeling curious.

A question erged in her mind: Can he do martial arts? Is his martial arts strong?

Yes, I should ask father later.

She didn’t ask in front of him to avoid making Uncle Ping feel awkward. If he says he’s strong, it might feel like boasting; if he says he’s not, then it’s embarrassing in front of his colleague.

Father Ye and Gu Ping chatted a bit about family matters.

Ye Family coughed a few tis, and Father Ye quickly said goodbye, leading his wife and children into Longhua Temple.

Due to the arrival of Emperor Jingping, plus the Lantern Festival, the crowd had more than doubled from usual.

Old Mrs. Ye, however, didn’t think much about it. After worshiping Buddha, she went to the ditation room in the temple to copy scriptures and pray for blessings, taking her personal maid Qiu Yu with her, planning to call her in half an hour.

The rest of the family was free to roam around.

Ming Yan kept looking around after entering the temple.

Ye Zhi knew she was looking for that Monk, and she didn’t stop her, generously allowing it: "Ah Tao, Ming Yan, you two don’t have to follow . Xiao Chen and I are going to find Qinglian to play."

She took Little Traitor’s hand and walked away.

A little boy and girl quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Along the way, Ye Zhi and Little Traitor didn’t see the Emperor, only so sword-wielding guards patrolling back and forth.

Guards with swords generally looked fierce, making people afraid to get close.

The winter was cold, the trees in the temple had lost all their leaves, leaving only bare branches, devoid of any vitality.

Occasionally, a bird’s nest built by a bird could be seen, lonely perched on a branch!

The two walked for a while.

Ye Zhi’s nose was reddened by the cold, she tightened the silver fox fur cloak around her, and asked her companion, "Xiao Chen, do you know where Qinglian is? Where should we go to find her?"

"The Princes, Princesses, and concubines are over in the backyard."

"Okay, then let’s go."

Ye Zhi had been to Longhua Temple a few tis, she knew where the backyard was, and holding Little Traitor’s hand, she confidently headed straight there.

She hadn’t even reached the place yet but could already feel that the number of guards increased significantly.

At the entrance of the backyard, two guards stood crossing their long spears, blocking the two children who wanted to go in.

They sternly said, "This place is not open for entry, go play sowhere else."

The two little ones looked at each other in dismay.

They couldn’t get inside.

Shen Chen clasped his hands politely, "Excuse , brother, could you kindly make an exception for us? We’re friends of the Thirteenth Princess."

The two guards glanced at each other, and one of them, who had a kinder face, said, "Then wait here for a mont."

He then went inside to report.
