Chapter 501 - 501: Planning Ahead



Xiao Juan roughly explained how they discovered the underground palace.

It turned out that the underground palace and iron mine were hidden in the Chillywind Valley.

When they found the iron mine, not only did they discover a large number of enslaved miners, but there were also a large number of well-made weapons.

The rumors about the Chillywind Valley being haunted were naturally fake.

Yu Niaoniao said, “Didn’t someone say that he was scared out of his wits and went crazy when he saw the Yin soldiers passing by?”

Xiao Juan explained patiently, “That person was indeed crazy, but he did not go crazy from fear.”

“Instead, it was because he had accidentally entered the Chillywind Valley and discovered the hidden secret. When he returned, he was in a panic. He had frightened himself and made himself sick.”

“In addition, his family did not have the money to treat his illness, and treatment was delayed. Although his life was saved in the end, it left behind the sequela of being delirious.”

“Others mistakenly thought that he had gone crazy from witnessing the passage of the Yin soldiers. As word spread, the matter became more and more strange. ”

Wei Liao sat down in a chair, crossed one leg, and said slowly, “Everyone listened to the rumors and was so frightened that they did not dare to approach Chillywind Valley.”

“This happened to fall into Yuan Gui and Princess Ni Yang’s plans.”

“They secretly sent someone to help to encourage and deepen the commoners’ understanding that Chillywind Valley was haunted. It caused the secret of the Chillywind Valley to be hidden until now.”

Realization dawned on Yu Niaoniao. “I see!”

She then asked, “I have another question. How did you find me?”

The palace was filled with wine, and the fire burned extremely quickly. If Xiao Juan and Wei Liao looked for her after seeing the fire, she would probably have been burned into a fireball by the time they found her.

So they must have known she was in that palace before the fire started.

The problem was that there were so many palaces in the crypt and the terrain was so complicated. How were they able to locate her accurately?

This question puzzled Yu Niaoniao very much.

Xiao Juan took out a charred sachet from his sleeve and placed it in front of her.

“Do you remember this?”

Although half of the sachet had been burned black, Yu Niaoniao still recognized it at a glance. This was the sachet Xiao Juan had given her. She nodded vigorously. “Of course, I remember.”

Xiao Juan said, “I asked Little Lo to specially concoct the spices in this sachet. Not only does the smell of this spice last, but it’s also very unique. After entering the underground palace, I smelled this fragrance. Although it’s very faint, I can confirm that it’s the smell left behind by the sachet on your body.”

That faint fragrance was very difficult for ordinary people to smell. However, to Xiao Juan, whose five senses were naturally different from ordinary people, it was very easy to smell.

Realization dawned on Yu Niaoniao. “So you followed the fragrance?”

Xiao Juan nodded. “Yes.”

Wei Liao deliberately said in a sarcastic tone.

“Duke Lang must have deliberately given such a sachet to the Princess Consort to make it easier to lock onto her location. Tsk tsk tsk, such a man is really terrifying. ”

Xiao Juan lowered his eyes, feeling uneasy. His fingertips hidden in his sleeve curled up slightly.

When he gave Niaoniao the sachet, his motives were indeed impure. He was

Now that Niaoniao knew the truth, would she blame him?

Yu Niaoniao rolled her eyes at Wei Liao.

“What do you know? Our Ah Juan is afraid that I will be kidnapped by bad people. ”

“He’s doing this out of concern for me. This is called planning ahead!” “As it turned out, he was very thoughtful. This sachet was really useful.”

“If Ah Juan hadn’t found me in time following the fragrance, I’m afraid I would have been burned to charcoal by now.”

The nervousness in Xiao Juan’s heart disappeared, and his fingers relaxed.

Yu Niaoniao raised her two claws wrapped in gauze and rubbed against Xiao Juan’s arm.

“Baby, don’t worry. I won’t listen to the instigation of a despicable person. I’ll always believe you!”

Xiao Juan gently held her claws and said in a muffled voice, “It’s my fault this time. I didn’t take good care of you and made you suffer so much.”

Yu Niaoniao hurriedly said, “It has nothing to do with you. Those bad people are too bad. They’re at fault.”

Xiao Juan said, “But if I could protect you, you wouldn’t be injured.”

Yu Niaoniao pouted.

“You can’t say that. If Princess Ni Yang didn’t lo”ck me in the study, I wouldn’t have been able to know the secret of the Chillywind Valley.

“If the secret of Chillywind Valley had never been discovered, how could those miners go home to reunite with their relatives? I think this injury is worth it.”

With that, she chuckled.

Wei Liao looked at her as if she were a fool.

“Is your brain damaged by the fire? Those miners are unrelated to you. What does their lives have to do with you?”

“You’re not the Bodhisattva Guan Yin. Just manage yourself and don’t worry about others!”

Yu Niaoniao wanted to retort, but she realized that there was a thin wound on Wei Liao’s jaw. It had already scabbed over and looked like it had been cut by a blade.

She asked immediately, “Why is your face injured?”

Wei Liao raised his hand and touched his chin. It hurt a little.

That was because he had been too anxious when he was fighting the rebels and had accidentally been cut by them with a knife.

As for why he was anxious? It was because he was worried about Yu Niaoniao. He was afraid that she would be too stupid to protect herself and be tortured to death by that maniac, Princess Ni Yang.

Wei Liao did not want to say this lest Yu Niaoniao teased him.

He lied casually, “I accidentally cut myself when I shaved with a knife.”

Yu Niaoniao clicked her tongue. “To be able to make such a long cut, it seems that knife is quite sharp.”

Wei Liao said, “You’re wrong. The reason I was injured wasn’t that the knife was too sharp, but because my skin was too thin. It broke with a gentle scrape.”

Yu Niaoniao was speechless.

Yu Niaoniao said, “Pui, narcissist!”

Wei Liao laughed unscrupulously. “Hahaha!”

Yu Niaoniao could not be bothered with him.

She looked at Xiao Juan and asked, “When are we going back to the Imperial

Capital?”

She wanted to return to the Imperial Capital quickly and see how the rehearsal in Qirui Opera Troupe was going.

Xiao Juan whispered, “There’s no hurry. You’re injured and can’t move around for the time being- We’ll rest here for a while first.”

Yu Niaoniao waved her small arms.

“I’m fine now! Look if you don’t believe me. I can run and jump now. I can set off at any time.”

Xiao Juan looked at her two thin arms wrapped tightly in gauze and sounded helpless.

“Be good and lie down. Don’t move.”

Yu Niaoniao wanted to get out of bed and take two steps to prove that she was really fine.

However, Xiao Juan pressed her shoulder and did not let her move.

“Rest for a few days. It won’t be too late to get off the ground when your injuries recover.”

Wei Liao sneered.

“Tsk tsk, look at you now. You’re covered in gauze like a little monster. If you really run out, you’ll definitely scare people to death..”
