Takasaki stepped back a few steps, turned around and looked around the room, as if looking for a place to hide. Unfortunately, the furnishings in the room were simple, and he looked up after taking a quick look.
Ye Qianning, who was hiding on the beam, turned slightly to avoid his sight. Then the next second, a purple figure rose into the air. The moment it landed on the beam, it met Ye Qianning's eyes.
Takasaki was about to scream in surprise when he leaned over and was pulled over. A pair of soft hands blocked his exclamation.
The unique aroma reached the tip of his nose.
“Don’t say anything if you don’t want to be discovered.” A clear and elegant voice spoke up.
Gao Qi was shocked when he smelled the aroma. Only when the pleasant sound came into his ears did he come back to his senses and nodded slightly.
Ye Qianning tentatively let go and saw that he really had no intention of shouting, so he felt relieved and removed his hand.
The breath from outside approached, and the sound of footsteps came over.
Gao Qi panicked for another moment. He didn't know what he thought of, but he suddenly moved and jumped down.
Ye Qianning grabbed him again.
Gao Qi didn't make a sound, and made gestures with his hands, which meant that he went down to lead people away.
“Hold your breath.”
Ye Qianning raised his hand and stuffed a pill into his mouth without hearing his voice.
The bitter taste in his mouth dissipated, and Takasaki's handsome face almost wrinkled, his breath was held, and the room became extremely quiet for a moment.
Not long after, four figures appeared outside the door.
"No."
“There isn’t one here either.”
A period of looking and silence followed.
They wandered around the courtyard for about ten minutes before they heard a low voice.
"Walk."
High-level hidden guards can sense any breathing around them based on their breath. No one can hold their breath for more than ten minutes, and they will leave with confidence when there is still no one.
At this time, on the beam, Gao Qi's face turned red, and he covered his mouth forcibly. He still didn't dare to let go of his hand until the other party left.
“Gone far away.” Ye Qianning glanced at him and jumped off the rafter.
“Huhu…”
Hearing the sound, Gao Qi immediately let go of his hand, took a few deep breaths, and immediately jumped down. Seeing that Ye Qianning was about to leave, he breathed heavily and asked, "Where are you going?"
Ye Qianning ignored her and walked outside.
“Cough cough cough…”
Takasaki's breath was not steady yet too rapid, and he coughed suddenly.
Ye Qianning stood in front of the corridor. He didn't know what he heard. Lao Gao frowned, turned around and went back to the room, and pulled Gao Qi back who was about to go out.
Just as Gao Qi chased him to the door, he saw Ye Qianning coming back. If she hadn't turned sideways, she would have pretended to be serious.
He was pulled back and took a few steps back: "You..."
“Hush.”
Ye Qianning put her finger to her mouth and gave her a warning look.
Takasaki didn't know why, so he shut up knowingly.
Outside, the closed door was pushed open, and a group of people walked in.
The person walking at the front was wearing a smart outfit and carrying a sword at his waist. There were five or six people following behind, some young and old, all dressed in simple clothes. They entered the gate and looked around with gleaming eyes.
“Masters, can we really live here?” A middle-aged man in his forties asked uncertainly after looking around.
“Yes, the emperor has arranged for you to live here.” The handsome man said coldly.
The middle-aged man and the woman next to him immediately beamed when they heard this and thanked him repeatedly.
“Everyone is tired from traveling and traveling, it’s time to have some rest. If you need anything, just ask.”
"well."
The middle-aged man smiled from ear to ear, and the family walked to the hall together.
Ye Qianning looked at a group of people through the crack in the door. They were all strangers, not from the capital.
