Chapter 324 Beautiful Spider Spirit VS Cold and Ascetic Monk 28
Xuan Ji's mind was in turmoil and he wanted to go directly to the capital to look for Yun Yan, but thinking of his promise to Yu Yao, he went to Lianhua County first.

After several days of trekking, he finally arrived in Lianhua County.

Xuan Ji thought that she might be busy in the store at this time, so he went straight to Yaohuafang.

The sign of Yaohuafang is particularly eye-catching on the street, and there is a constant stream of female customers coming in and out of the door, which shows how good the business is.

It was not convenient for him to go in at this time, so he waited at the door for a long time until the store was not so busy, and then he went in.

Liu Yun was so busy that she just had a moment's leisure and was about to pour herself a glass of water when she turned around and saw a very handsome monk walking in.

She couldn't help but wonder in her heart: Why did this monk come here for no reason? Could it be that he wanted to beg for alms?

Although he thought so, he still walked forward with a smile and asked, "Master, how can I help you?"

Xuan Ji was slightly stunned when he saw her. He looked around the store but did not see Yu Yao.

Although he was confused, he looked away.

He clasped his hands together and asked politely, "Amitabha, I would like to ask, is donor Yu Yaoyu here?"

Liu Yun was stunned for a moment. It turned out that he was looking for Madam, so he smiled and said, "Madam didn't come today. I am her new shopkeeper. If Master has any urgent matters, I can send someone to take Master to Madam's house."

Xuan Ji understood what was going on and said politely, "Thank you, benefactor. I can go there by myself."

After saying this, he turned and left Yaohuafang.

Liu Yun looked at Xuan Ji's departing back and didn't take it to heart. She drank a sip of water, took a short rest, and then continued to be busy.

Xuan Ji soon appeared in front of the gate of Baichuan Academy.

Knock on the door gently.

It was Zhou Bo who opened the door. Seeing that it was Master Xuan Ji who came back, his face immediately showed joy, "Master is back, and Madam is at home, please come in."

Xuan Ji nodded slightly and followed Zhou Bo into the house.

Yu Yao was playing with An An and You You in the house. The two children were five months old and were learning to sit.

An An was a little lazy and refused to move even when he was lying down. On the contrary, You You learned quickly and sat up quickly. However, he was not very stable and soon fell down.

But this little guy is very stubborn and has a strong desire to not admit defeat. After falling down, he would immediately get up with his little butt sticking out.

Yu Yao laughed so hard that she poked An An with her hand, "Don't be so lazy. Look at your sister, she can already sit up, but you're still lying there?"

An An seemed to understand what she said. He stared at his mother with his round eyes, then turned over lazily, arched his little butt a few times, and sat up quickly without much effort.

He sat more steadily than Youyou, and Yu Yao was stunned by the sight.

It turns out that this kid doesn't know how to sit, he's just too lazy to move.

She was so angry that she poked him lightly with her hand, and "bang", the little guy fell on his back as expected.

This is the bed, with a thick and soft cushion underneath, so Yu Yao is not afraid of falling.

An An looked at his mother aggrievedly, not understanding why she wanted to bully him. He slammed the bed with his feet twice, turned over and started playing with his fingers.

Xuan Ji came in and saw this scene, with a faint smile on his face, "Why is Mr. Yu bullying his own son today?"

Hearing the voice, Yu Yao was delighted. She turned around and saw Xuan Ji walking into the house. Although he was exhausted, he was still handsome, with an unparalleled appearance, and was elegant and noble.

She smiled and stood up to greet him, her eyes flashing with tenderness, and glared at him in a pretended reproach, "You still remember to come back, I thought you had forgotten about the three of us?"

Xuan Ji smiled gently, walked forward, and naturally took her hand, "How could I forget you? I promised you that no matter whether I found the answer or not, I would come back to tell you."

He no longer called himself "poor monk", but called me naturally, and he himself did not even notice these changes.

I said this instinctively.

Yu Yao felt the warmth coming from her palm. This was the first time since that night in Zhoujiazhuang that he took the initiative to get close to her. Suddenly, all the resentment in her heart disappeared.

I didn't have any resentment at all, I just missed him a little after not seeing him for a while.

At this moment, I feel only happy.

She pulled Xuan Ji to sit down beside the bed and looked at him, "How is it, what did the abbot say? Have you found the answer?"

Xuan Ji held An An in his arms, played with his son's hand, and shook his head gently, "Master doesn't know Yun Yan's whereabouts either. He only told me that he found me at the mountain gate that year, with a dragon-patterned jade pendant in my swaddling clothes."

After saying this, he took out the jade pendant with dragon pattern wrapped in yellow silk from his bosom and said, "This is the jade pendant."

Yu Yao took the jade pendant and examined it carefully. The golden dragon on the jade pendant was lifelike, as if it could burst out from it. "The texture and carving of this jade pendant are extraordinary. It seems that you are really the son of Concubine Min."

She raised her eyes and looked at Xuan Ji, "So what are you going to do?"

As he spoke, he returned the jade pendant to Xuan Ji. Xuan Ji took it and put it away, without hiding his intentions. "I want to go to the capital to find Yun Yan's whereabouts. She may be able to tell me more secrets about her life."

His eyes darkened, and he added: "Also, I want to seek justice for Concubine Min."

It's also to seek justice for himself.

Yu Yao knew that things would be like this, but it was normal for Xuan Ji to think this way.

"Have you really decided to go to the capital?"

She asked quietly, her eyes filled with worry.

Xuan Ji held An An for a while, then gently put her down and turned to hold You You, nodding slightly, "I must go."

She sighed, knowing that his decision would not change easily. After a moment of silence, she said, "Then I'll go with you, so I can take care of you on the way."

If the Queen knew that Xuan Ji was Concubine Min's son and was still alive, she would definitely take action in secret to wipe out the root of the problem.

And there is Mo Jue, oh, his name in this life is Dugu Ye, how will he face this brother who suddenly appears?

How could she feel at ease if she didn't go and take a look?

Xuan Ji looked at her softly, "This journey is full of dangers, I can't distract myself to take care of you. You stay in Lianhua County to take care of An An You You. If I am alive, I will come back to find you."

Looking at his determined eyes, Yu Yao knew that it was useless to say more, so she did not force him to follow her. She nodded gently, "Then you should be careful."

As night falls, the starry sky of Lianhua County is as bright as a picture, the Milky Way stretches across the sky, and the moonlight falls like water in the quiet courtyard.

Inside the house, candlelight flickered.

While Yu Yao coaxed An An and You You to sleep, she asked the system: "Tian Qing, can you find out the whereabouts of Yun Yan?"

"Wait a minute, let me take a look."

When the system heard what she said, it was willing to help.

After a while.

The system said, "Found it. Yunyan married her childhood sweetheart and lived in seclusion in Linjia Village not far from the capital. They had three sons and two daughters. Although they are not rich, they are not bad either. It is easy to find him."

It paused, then reminded again: "Yunyan's husband's surname is Lin, and his name is Lin Youwei."

When Yu Yao heard this, she understood what was going on.

After making sure the two little ones fell asleep, he gently put them in the cradle, tucked them in, and then went to Xuan Ji's room.

Xuan Ji stood by the window, rubbing a dragon-patterned jade pendant in his hand, with a look of deep thought on his face.

The bright moonlight shone through the open window onto his face, making him look extraordinarily handsome and as beautiful as an immortal.

She smiled slightly, walked over gently, and suddenly hugged his waist from behind.

Xuan Ji's face froze and his face flushed slightly, but he did not push her away.

He turned around and looked into her eyes which were as gentle as water. The embarrassment gradually disappeared, leaving only tenderness in her eyes.

"Yao'er, why are you here?"

As their relationship became closer, the way they addressed each other became more intimate, and they no longer said "Amitabha" or "donor, donor" all day long.

This is also the reason why Yu Yao dared to suddenly hug him from behind.

She chuckled and said, "The children are asleep, I came to see you."

She pulled him to sit beside the bed and said, "The capital is so big, and Yunyan has long been missing. Where are you going to look for her?"

Xuan Ji looked confused, "I don't know either. I plan to go to the palace first. There should be some old palace servants who know something."

Yu Yao already knew where Yunyan was, but it was difficult to say it directly, so she reminded her implicitly: "I heard that Yunyan's childhood sweetheart's surname is Lin, and his name is Lin Youwei. After so many years, Yunyan must have married him a long time ago. Maybe the two of them are living in seclusion near the capital."

Xuan Ji thought about it and felt that it made sense. Yun Yan sent herself to Wanfo Temple for that man back then, and it was obvious that she liked him very much.

After so many years, the two must have been married and maybe had many children.

"Okay, I'll go ask around the capital."

He nodded slightly.

Yu Yao leaned in his arms, her arms around his waist, and said reluctantly: "Xuan Ji, no matter where you are, remember that this will always be your home."

Xuan Ji thought about this separation, not knowing when he would come back, and felt very reluctant to leave. He followed his heart and couldn't help but reach out to hug her, saying softly, "Okay."

The flickering candlelight in the room illuminates the warmth.
