MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 449 eavesdrop

The expressions of Ning Chuyi and others changed again and again. They thought that the shopkeeper just heard some rumors, but they didn't expect that the imperial court had already informed the world.

 After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Pang Shou, who had experienced countless changes even though he was with the emperor, was a little at a loss.

While Ning Chuyi was interrogating the shopkeeper, Ling Chu quickly started calculating with his hands covered by his wide sleeves.

　After a few moments, it stopped again.

With a calm face, he stepped forward and said to the anxious shopkeeper's wife, "Please take down those two sets of clothes, I want them."

 Looking around the store, I didn’t see the inner clothes, so I guessed they were placed in the inner room.

Pang Shou's lips moved, and he subconsciously wanted to speak, but when the words reached his mouth, he saw Ning Chuyi beside him and swallowed them back.

Although the several imperial soldiers beside him didn't say anything, their expressions didn't look very good.

 The dissatisfaction in my heart is almost written on my face.

The emperor has passed away, how can the princess still be in the mood to choose clothes?

Lingchu ignored them and followed the shopkeeper's wife into the inner room. After picking out outer clothes, it is natural to prepare two sets of inner clothes and small clothes for changing.

Although he had no father-son relationship with the emperor, Ning Chuyi was still upset when he suddenly heard the bad news.

 Seeing how calm Ling Chu was, he quickly calmed down.

 “Let’s go, pick out some clothes first.”

Pang Shou and several of the Imperial Guards were stunned for a moment, wondering why Ning Chuyi was so indifferent when he heard the news of the emperor's death.

Yin Sha glanced at them expressionlessly and without saying a word, he stepped forward and gave the clothes he liked to the shopkeeper, indicating to him to wrap them up and pay the bill.

Ning Chuyi was confused because he was concerned, so he panicked.

But Yin Sha has always been calm. He knows Ling Chu's ability, and just now he vaguely saw her calculating.

Even though he didn’t know what the hexagram meant, he always remembered that the emperor was escorted back to the capital by Master Xuan Yi and his two disciples.

 With Master Xuan Yi here, how could it be possible for the emperor to get into trouble easily?

Pang Shou glanced back and forth at Ning Chuyi and Yin Sha, although he also remembered that Master Xuan Yi was following the emperor.

 But the prince is gone, and the second prince is bound to win the throne.

 And his maternal ancestor, Duke of Qi, held one-third of the military power of the Chongzhao Dynasty.

 Coupled with Concubine An Xian, the three of them will definitely stop the emperor from returning to Beijing at all costs.

No matter how powerful Master Xuan Yi is, his two fists cannot beat four hands. How could he and the two disciples withstand the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the hands of Duke Qi?

Lingchu didn't mention the emperor at all in front of the shopkeeper and his wife.

It wasn't until he stepped out of the clothing store and walked a dozen steps outside that he suddenly turned his head and looked at Ning Chuyi, "Can you believe me?"

Ning Chuyi paused, glanced at her, and then continued walking forward.

 “I don’t want to eat braised noodles, let’s go.”

Lingchu looked at him with some surprise, even though Ning Chuyi's words were not what he was asking. But his tone was calm and his expression was not sad. Even now I still remember what she said casually when she came down the mountain.

It can be seen that he did not believe that the emperor died.

Lingchu smiled, followed quickly without saying anything else.

Pang Shou and the rest of the Forbidden Army were filled with gloom, but there was nothing they could do at the moment.

If the news of the emperor's death is true, it would be in vain for them to take up wings and fly back to Kyoto now.

They are the emperor's people, not to mention that they will not seek refuge with the second prince. Even if they are willing to take a step back, even if the second prince can accommodate them, he will definitely not give them a good future.

 Find a noodle shop and each of us had a bowl of noodles.

Ning Chuyi did not rush back to Beijing, but accompanied Ling Chu to stroll around this small county town.

 They did not ask everyone to follow.

Yin Sha and Wei Feng, one went to buy dry food and the other went to find an inn.

As for Pang Shou and the rest of the imperial army, they were trying to find out about the emperor's death and the current situation in Kyoto.

At the ready-to-wear store, although Lingchu had made some calculations, the hexagrams were not clear.

If you want to figure out the emperor's situation, you have to use mystical divination. But when she fell off the cliff, the turtle shell and copper coins on her body were scattered nowhere.

The two things on her body look inconspicuous, but they are magical weapons specially made for her by Master Xuan Yi.

This county is really small. Ling Chu visited all the shops on the street before he bought an ordinary turtle shell and three copper coins.

 Although it is not a good magic weapon, it is still usable.

 After walking around for two hours, the bowl of noodles I had for lunch was digested again. The two simply had dinner outside before returning to the inn.

 Having the waiter bring hot water, Ling Chu took a comfortable bath and put on the newly bought clothes.

 It wasn’t until the sky was filled with stars that she took the copper coins, turtle shell, incense burner and other things and left the inn room.

As soon as I stepped out of the door, the door of the next room was also opened.

Seeing Ning Chuyi dressed neatly, Ling Chu smiled and handed over the incense burner and other things in his hand.

Ning Chuyi raised his hand to take it, and they walked side by side to the backyard of the inn.

Yin Sha and Wei Feng followed behind silently, carrying lanterns.

Although it is a small county town, this inn is quite large. Maybe the land is cheap, and the backyard occupies half of the street.

 The owner of the inn should be an elegant person, and the backyard has a nice view. There is also a rockery in the courtyard, with an octagonal pavilion built on the mountain.

Ling Chu climbed up the steps of the rockery. When he reached the top, he looked around and picked a good spot next to the pavilion.

Put the incense burner, take out the fire sticks you brought, solemnly light three sticks of incense, recite scriptures, bow again, and then insert them into the incense burner.

 Place the futon, sit cross-legged, hold the magic formula with your hands, and raise your head to gaze at the stars.

Ning Chuyi said nothing and stood behind Ling Chu with his head behind his hands.

Yin Sha and Wei Feng were silently guarding the pavilion.

Pang Shou and the rest of the imperial army tried many ways to find out during the day, but all the news they got pointed to the death of the emperor.

Even though they were exposed late at night, they could not sleep while lying on the bed. When they saw Ning Chuyi and Ling Chu going out, they followed them silently.

 Everyone thought they would have to wait for a long time.

Unexpectedly, Ling Chu spent only a quarter of an hour observing the stars at night.

Although Pang Shou and the others couldn't wait to ask about the result, it was obvious that she took out the copper coins and the turtle shell, so she could only suppress her anxiety.

It wasn't until Lingchu finished the divination that Pang Shou and the others couldn't help but gathered around.

I want to speak, but I am afraid of hearing bad consequences.

Lingchu saw that they were nervous and raised his eyes to look at Ning Chuyi.

 He did not speak, but his thin lips pursed tightly.

“Although the purple star is dim and flickers from time to time, it shows no signs of dying.”

Ning Chuyi's tense face slowly fell, and her eyes were clear under the moonlight.

One of the Imperial Guards seemed to understand, and after pondering for a while, he couldn't help but said, "Princess, has the Emperor not..."

He wanted to ask if he was not dead, but when the words came to his lips, he remembered that the word "death" was disrespectful and unlucky, so he hurriedly swallowed it back.

Lingchu glanced at him and said with a smile, "Yes, the emperor is indeed still alive."

Everyone breathed a big sigh of relief, and just when they were about to cheer, a slight sound suddenly came from the distance.

"who?"

Yin Sha Wei Feng all jumped up, their eyes blurred, and the big shovel passed by their eyes.

 Suddenly, a scream came from behind the big tree.
