Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy

Xu Yixing was undecided now, and thought for a while: "Let's go into the city first, and then go to the garrison to investigate and see what's going on."

"Yes."

After cleaning the west room carefully to make sure that there was no sign of their having rummaged through it, they declined the old couple's invitation to dinner. Then they hurriedly left the village and went back into the city.

"Look at our luck. There are old acquaintances everywhere. Isn't that infuriating?"

"Haha." Ying Wu didn't dare to delay entering the city again, and quickly found a separate yard under a dental clinic, and was walking towards it now. Because he had to avoid crowded places, the yard was very remote, and he chose it at the end of the east city opposite to the west city, just in case he bumped into Wu Xueyan again one day.

"This teahouse looks good, why don't you go in and take a rest?" Ying Wu suddenly stopped and pointed at a small two-story teahouse, then approached and whispered, "Someone is following us."

"Oh, okay, then let's go in and have a cup of tea." Going up to the second floor, Xu Yixing saw Ying Wu standing at the neighboring window, watching for a long time as if facing a great enemy, which made her dare not sit down.

"She's coming up. It's Gao Yao. Do you want to see her?"

"Gao Yao?" Could it be that she was recognized after all?

There was not much time to think, as a familiar voice sounded outside the cubicle: "You two, I am the one you stayed with yesterday. You forgot something!"

This excuse was naturally unreliable, but Xu Yixing still asked Ying Wu to open the door, and sure enough, he saw Gao Yao standing outside the door wearing a muli.

Gao Yao walked closer, first observed Xu Yixing, then glanced at Ying Wu, then took out a handkerchief from her arms, as if she really wanted to return it to Xu Yixing.

After Yingwu closed the door, Xu Yixing spoke up: "How did you recognize us?"

Gao Yao was stunned and took off the curtain from her head, as if to make it easier for her to see. "It's you, I said I wouldn't be wrong."

Gao Yao's face now is no different from before. It may even be because the climate in Miaozhou is not as good as that in the capital. Her skin is rougher than before and the scars on her face are older.

"When you left today, I felt that you looked very familiar. Then my parents mentioned the room you stayed in and came to ask about my brother. So you saw the things in the room?"

Ying Wu had been standing behind Gao Yao, watching the situation and ready to kill the insider at any time, but his master didn't say to take action, so he was just on guard.

"Those aren't your brother's clothes, are they? Where is Xu Yiwen?"

"Slow down, can you tell me one thing at a time?" Gao Yao's personality seemed to have changed a lot. Now she was a bit like the old Xu Yixing.

"Well, you have such a sharp eye. I was afraid that I couldn't hide it from you, so I hid in the house as soon as you came in. I didn't expect you to find out." Gao Yao had been ordered to imitate herself for a long time. Even though her appearance and figure had changed, she could still recognize herself at a glance. Fortunately, she only knew that she was Yi Yan and didn't think about other things.

"Thank you very much. Who is this?" Gao Yao turned her head to look at the man. Her head was full of stories about talented men and beautiful women. Ever since she saw Xu Yixing in the morning, she knew it must be some big gossip, so she followed him to confirm it.

"He..." Xu Yixing didn't expect Gao Yao didn't know Ying Wu, but that made sense. Not to mention that this wasn't his real face, he probably had never seen him before. So how should he introduce him?

Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, Gao Yao immediately put on an "I understand" expression: "I know, you don't have to say it."

When Xu Yixing saw her looking up and down at his belly and looking at Ying Wu with a teasing smile on her face, he knew that she must be thinking wrong, but he was too lazy to correct her.

"Ah! No wonder the court issued a wanted order for Xu Yiwen. You, you are so bold!" Gao Yao realized it a little late. She knew that the new emperor had ascended the throne. The former Miss Xu would naturally become the queen now. However, her brother's wanted order was inexplicably posted on the city wall of Miaozhou a few months ago. It seems that this man was cheating on the emperor!

After the gossip, she suddenly felt a little scared and tightly grasped her handkerchief: "You...you, if you are discovered by others, you will be dead, right?"

"Yeah... yes, so I'm hiding here." Xu Yixing touched her nose guiltily. She admired Gao Yao's ability to associate, but it was also shocking to say that she was pregnant with a fugitive prince. "So, have you met my brother?"

Gao Yao nodded solemnly: "I have seen him. He came here with Xueyan more than half a year ago and lived in my house for a while. Later, he was wanted for some reason and left because he was afraid of getting us into trouble."

"With Wu Xueyan?" No way, is this Wu Xueyan a person who specializes in picking up homeless people and taking them home? Not only did she pick up the two of us last night, but she also picked up Xu Yiwen?

"Yes, your brother was not in a very good condition at that time. Fortunately, Xueyan comforted him every day, and he gradually got better." Gao Yao said it as a matter of course, but Xu Yixing heard a hint of other meaning. Could it be that these two were in love?

"Did he say where he was going?"

Gao Yao changed her relaxed attitude and said with concern: "Beijing. When the wanted order was issued, he said that something must have happened to you in Beijing, so he had to go back to Beijing to find you."

"He's crazy!" There was definitely something wrong with Xu Yiwen's brain. Since he knew that something had happened in the capital, the best strategy would be to protect himself and hide far away. Why did he run to such a troubled place?

"Xueyan and I tried to persuade him for a long time, but he insisted on leaving and there was nothing we could do." After Gao Yao finished speaking, she looked at Xu Yixing with a rather resentful look, as if to say, it's all because of you.

"But his portrait is on the wanted warrant. How can he get through all the checkpoints and return to the capital?"

Gao Yao raised her eyebrows. "I didn't believe it at first, but you can come from the capital, so why can't he go back? He said he has his own way. Anyway, he has been gone for a long time and has not returned. Maybe he has already arrived."

Xu Yixing rolled his eyes inwardly. He also relied on Yingwu to get out. Who did Yiwen rely on? However, he should not have fallen into Lu Anyuan's hands, right? Otherwise, Lu Anyuan would definitely post notices all over to force him to show up.

Seeing Xu Yixing's worry, Gao Yao couldn't bear to say anything more, so she asked about her plan: "Are you planning to stay in Miaozhou for the rest of your life? I can tell you that the defense of Miaozhou is no worse than that of the capital. If it's wartime, they can dig up your cellar to hunt for spies. If anyone knows you are here, they will definitely take you back."

In Gao Yao's heart, she had already equated these two people with "unparalleled love" and "star-crossed couple", and felt very sorry for them.
