As soon as Ming Jia arrived home with her bodyguard, she was invited by Yang Tingxuan.

"Brother Jinyan, I'm going to be out for a day. Can I go back and change my clothes first?"

Jinyan glanced at Mingjia's robe. There were indeed many wrinkles, and it still smelled like alcohol?

"Master Mingjia, you'd better be patient for a while! My master said that as soon as you come back, I will invite you over immediately!"

Mingjia rolled her eyes generously, no longer needing to consider any image issues.

Yang Tingxuan looked at Mingjia who looked tired, her clothes were dirty and wrinkled, and she smelled bad.

"Your dad said you went shopping, and he also said you like browsing bookstores!"

Yang Tingxuan leaned back, as if this would keep him farther away from Ming Jia, and his tone was as always... narrow!

Ming Jia was also really tired. She had been fighting wits with Huo Zelin that day, and chatted with several stewards about household matters. It is also very tiring for Mingjia.

Mingjia looked around Yang Tingxuan's study, walked to a chair, and slowly moved her butt to the chair.

"Uncle Yang, I'm very tired today. If you have anything to do, just tell me!"

Then Mingjia added in her heart: "I've run out of ideas today!"

Yang Tingxuan looked at Ming Jia's weak and tired look, and kept reminding himself in his heart.

"She's just pretending! It's the same as pretending to be scared before."

"Ouch~~ What is such a young child doing? Why is he so tired?"

There seemed to be two voices quarreling in Yang Tingxuan's heart. When Yang Tingxuan wanted to continue chatting with Ming Jia, he raised his head again and was stunned.

Mingjia sat on the chair, her back straight, but her little head moved little by little.

Chen Xiaoliu came with Mingjia and was confused when he saw that Mingjia had already started to doze off.

Chen Xiaoliu's time with Mingjia was still short, and this was the first time he had seen this situation.

Yang Tingxuan looked at Ming Jia, then turned to look at Chen Xiaoliu, who was obviously still out of trouble. Yang Tingxuan couldn't help but frown.

"The servants of the Xiao family need to be trained well! The mistress Dong is too soft!"

Yang Tingxuan was dissatisfied with the servants of the Xiao family, but he felt that the mistress was softer...

"Well, the eldest daughter Jinglan is very independent! I don't know if I can get along with Mrs. Dong."

Soon Yang Tingxuan realized that his train of thought had gone astray. Chen Xiaoliu was still standing there at a loss, and this time he was really angry.

"Why don't you carry your young master back to rest!"

Yang Tingxuan scolded Chen Xiaoliu in a low voice, but his tone was stern.

Chen Xiaoliu thought for a while and walked to the side, bent down and picked up Mingjia.

Mingjia woke up the moment her head rested on Chen Xiaoliu's chest. Mingjia attacked Chen Xiaoliu without hesitation.

Fortunately, Chen Xiaoliu reacted very quickly and realized something was wrong when Mingjia just took action.

Chen Xiaoliu shook his hands forward, and Mingjia's body spun around in the air and landed firmly on the ground.

Mingjia's landing posture was half squatting, and Chen Xiaoliu knew clearly that Mingjia was intending to take the dagger.

At this time, Mingjia also discovered that the person holding her was Chen Xiaoliu, and they were still in Yang Tingxuan's study.

Mingjia took her hands off the edge of her boots and stood up slowly. It seemed that she had been wary of Huo Zelin all day long, but not guarded against Yang Tingxuan.

Mingjia raised her eyebrows and praised herself in her heart: "What a smart baby!"

The whole process happened very quickly. Yang Tingxuan was very surprised when he witnessed the whole process.

"So, you didn't carry your son on your back just now because you were afraid that he would attack you?"

Yang Tingxuan felt that he might have wrongly blamed Chen Xiaoliu just now.

Chen Xiaoliu...that's not the case!

Ming Jia was a little annoyed that her knowledge of kung fu was revealed, but she found that Yang Tingxuan didn't care at all about her knowledge of kung fu.

Mingjia wanted to stay and continue talking to Yang Tingxuan, but Yang Tingxuan sent him directly out of the study.

"You go back and rest first! We'll talk tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow, on behalf of my parents, I will go to the Baiyi tribe to propose marriage to Fourth Uncle Cheng!"

"Then let's talk the next day. You go back and rest first!"

Then, Mingjia really took Chen Xiaoliu away.

Yang Tingxuan has sent two groups of people to Chuanzhou, one group was sent to investigate Xiao Mingjun before the year, and the other group was sent to investigate Xiao Mingjia after the year.

Previously, Yang Tingxuan had received the first two letters sent back by people, both of which were about Xiao Mingjun's studies and imperial examinations.

However, I haven't received any news about Mingjia. I think the second batch of people has just arrived in Chuanzhou.

Yang Tingxuan's prediction was very accurate, and his manpower only arrived in Qu County on the second day.

The servants of the Yang family are also good at gathering information. They "met" the concierge of the county government as soon as they arrived in Qu County.

"I heard that the young master from Magistrate Xiao's family was very good at studying!"

"That's right! The eldest son was admitted as a scholar at the age of thirteen!"

"Second Young Master is good at studying, right?"

"Which second young master?"

"He is the younger brother of the eldest son of the Xiao family!"

"His junior brother?"

"Uh...yes! He's also his junior brother!"

"I heard that his junior brother is also good at studying, but it is better for the eldest son to study!"

As soon as Lieutenant Shen County came back from patrolling the streets with his servants, he heard the concierge talking about Ming Jun's study.

Originally, I just listened casually. After all, Mingjun was admitted as a scholar at a young age and had been discussed for a long time in Qu County.

But after County Lieutenant Shen heard a few more words, he felt something was wrong. Is the person here trying to find out about Ming Jia?

Lieutenant Shen quickly walked to the door calmly, looked through the crack in the door to see who was coming, and waited for the person to leave.

"Agui, I'm going out!"

County Lieutenant Shen left the county government gate and followed the Yang family's servants from a distance.

It can only be said that the servants of the Yang family are also good, but County Lieutenant Shen is even more capable.

County Lieutenant Shen kept watching until late at night, making sure that all the companions of the group were back, and then quietly left.

That night, Lieutenant Shen knocked on the door of the original house. The concierge answered the door and soon brought Lieutenant Shen into the house.

Although Xie Boyuan is no longer the master of the county government, he and Shen Xianwei have worked together for five years.

"Lieutenant Shen, there must be something important to visit late at night, but it doesn't matter!"

Lieutenant Shen knew that Mingjia was wearing men's clothing when she left Qu County, and Lieutenant Shen also had his own judgment.

After hearing County Lieutenant Shen's words, Xie Boyuan immediately guessed the true purpose of this group of people and came to find out about Ming Jia.

"Lao Lu, take your people and keep an eye on that inn. Once you determine the number of people, arrest them all!"

"Yes, Second Master! I'll take people there right now!"

Xie Boyuan stood up and saluted and thanked Shen County Lieutenant. Shen County Lieutenant quickly held Xie Boyuan's arm.

"Mr. Yuan, you're so polite! Mingjia and I can be considered friends who have been together forever."

Xie Boyuan paused in his salute. How could his disciple be friends with everyone?

"That Chen Shao'ang and Ming Jia are good friends only because Ming Jia is Ming Jia!"
