Huo Changhe saw Yan Ruyu's solemn expression and held her hand holding the pen.

"This is someone else's business. He can do whatever he likes. We don't have to worry about it. Ruyu, along the way, you have worked hard and worried enough about the palace. I feel deeply ashamed."

Yan Ruyu paid attention: "I understand what the prince means."

"If the governor colludes with Mr. Mo and ignores the people of Xucheng, then it is not just his fault," Yan Ruyu said, "The weirdness of the governor's office may be the breakthrough."

Huo Changhe hesitated and hugged her gently: "I just don't want you to work too hard. These things shouldn't be a burden to you."

Yan Ruyu's heart softened and she did not pull away.

Even in her previous life, she couldn't remember how it felt to rely on others. She was used to being strong and standing alone.

"It's not a burden," Yan Ruyu said softly, "it's a responsibility."

In the past, he was an agent, doing things to safeguard justice in the darkness of peacetime; now in this era of imperial power, he did it firstly for Huo Changhe, and secondly because of his sense of responsibility.

As they hugged each other wordlessly, Yan Ruyu suddenly felt that her wrist was a little hot and her pulse seemed to be beating a little fast.

Um? Could it be...

Yan Ruyu gently pushed Huo Changhe away: "Your Majesty, help me get a cup of tea!"

"Okay, I'll go right now."

Huo Changhe turned around and went to the outer room. Yan Ruyu sat down and his consciousness quickly flashed into the space. Sure enough, the abbot spoke in the space again.

"Ruyu, I'm leaving! I'm taking Wu Ming with me!"

He was also in a hurry and only said one message.

Yan Ruyu exited and Huo Changhe came in with tea.

Taking a sip of tea, Yan Ruyu paused: "What does it taste like?"

Huo Changhe's face changed slightly: "Does it taste wrong?"

"No, it's not tea," Yan Ruyu put down the tea cup and opened the window. Huo Changhe also heard it.

There was a very faint smell floating in the air outside. I couldn't say what it was, but it didn't smell good.

"What is going on in this mansion?" Huo Changhe closed the window, "Isn't it poisonous?"

Yan Ruyu thoughtfully said: "I have been thinking about what methods they will use to cause chaos. Could it be..."

Huo Changhe paused: "Is it the smell?!"

Nothing spreads faster than this, and can make people feel strange and fearful.

"Are we leaving here?" Huo Changhe asked.

Yan Ruyu burned the picture she had just drawn: "Let's wait a minute. Let's send a message to Yin Ding and the others first to see what's going on outside. Since we know that the mysterious man is the governor, maybe we can cooperate inside and outside."

Huo Changhe thought for a moment: "I will send you out, but I will stay."

"No," Yan Ruyu immediately objected, "This is too eye-catching, and you are in danger alone."

Yan Ruyu gave him a pen and paper: "Hurry up and write a letter."

……

Yin Ding was at the inn, having breakfast, and was feeding starlings and pheasants with Beibei and Quandao.

"What does it smell like?" Beibei sniffed.

He always had a good nose, so Yin Ding stopped and took a sniff: "It has a smell, but it's not very pleasant."

Quandao said: "It smells a bit like burning. When I used to work in the village, I often chopped firewood to make fires. Some branches would smell strange when they were burned."

Yin Ding's little eyes rolled: "No. You guys are here, I'll go take a look on the street."

Yin Ding is in the military camp all year round and is more sensitive to disturbances than they are.

On the street, the smell seemed stronger than in the inn, and I couldn't tell where it came from. It seemed to be everywhere.

Yin Ding rubbed his nose and continued walking forward. There were many vendors at the intersection ahead, making it even more lively.

Many people have already smelled it and started talking.

"What does this smell like? Do you smell it?"

"It doesn't smell very good, it makes my nose irritated."

"Where did it come from?"

"I do not know."

"I don't know if this smell is harmful to people."

"That's right, I heard that some thieves steal things at night by blowing a scent of incense into the house, and then people faint!"

Yin Ding was secretly amused when he heard this. If he uses incense, he is not called a thief, but he is called a thief.

However, this is indeed strange.

He stopped walking and turned back to the inn.

The prince and princess are not here. Before leaving, I leave the safety of everyone in the inn to him. He can't be careless and can't go too far.

Before reaching the gate of the courtyard, I heard Beibei's cry: "No, don't fight!"

"Stop!"

Yin Ding entered the hospital quickly, and a few hairs rushed towards him.

"Little cabbage!" Myna flapped his wings and shouted, "Both cabbage and white cabbage!"

"Brother Tuotuo, hurry up, stop them, Xiaolan listens to you!"

Yin Ding looked closely and found that the starling was fighting with a white homing pigeon.

This scene also attracted many people, and Meng Mengliang was eating melon seeds to watch the excitement.

Yin Ding saw the mailbox on the pigeon's leg and whistled.

The homing pigeon turned around and flew towards him. When the starling saw it, he was about to peck after him when he pointed his finger at the silver ingot.

The myna flapped its wings and landed on a nearby branch.

"Baby cabbage, so white and vegetable!"

The carrier pigeon cooed and tilted its head to look at it.

Yin Ding brought the carrier pigeon into the house, took off the mail box, unfolded the letter paper and looked at it carefully.

Jin Qing is not here, so he has to manage the secret guards over there. He must be very alert for things here.

After reading the letter, he quickly went out to find Ma Liyu.

"Sir, I have something to tell you."

Ma Liyu nodded: "It's said inside."

Yin Ding handed the letter to him, and Ma Liyu read it in a hurry: "Okay, I'll go and talk about the rest..."

"Leave the rest to me," Yin Ding destroyed the note, "Sir, we don't care about anything else, just keep us safe."

"Okay, I understand."

Yin Ding has become accustomed to obeying military orders. He is worried that Ma Liyu is young and energetic, and he is a member of the imperial army. He has a natural sense of superiority and a sense of mission. If there is chaos in the city, he will not be able to help but go out to help.

Everyone has experienced what happened in Antai Town. Any man may awaken in such things. Even An Cizhou wants to be a military general.

Not to mention Ma Liyu.

Yin Ding turned around and walked out. Ma Liyu secretly sighed. No wonder King Zhennan was invincible on the battlefield. Not only was he personally capable, but even his subordinates, no matter how much they played around in peacetime, were also extremely capable at critical moments.

Yin Ding went to Huo Zhongmao and said, "Brother Huo, where are the spices that the princess gave you before she left?"

"It's in my yard, what's wrong?"

"Bring it here and start making incense."

Huo Zhongmao was stunned: "The princess said that it might rain in the past two days. If you make incense, it will not be easy to dry by then, so..."

"It's okay," Yin Ding interrupted him, "I'll go find the store and build a yard. I'll make some incense and put it inside. It won't get wet even if it rains."

Huo Zhongmao is also a smart man, and he immediately understood that it was not for making incense.

"Okay, what do you want me to do?"

"Sir, Master Ma will give an order in a while, telling everyone not to go out. You can take the opportunity to say that you will take everyone to make incense. First, you are busy with something, and second, you will pick something with a strong smell."

“The thicker, the better.”

"clear."
