Chapter 576: Chapter 578: Were You Really Just a Bodyguard Before? _1

No wonder Ye Ge wanted the documents of the wood merchants who retired three years ago.

These people had actually been bought off, and they retired just to make things easier.

Ye Ge gently lowered Nan Feng’s head to avoid being seen by people from below the mountain.

However, Nan Feng was still in shock, she had been in the county for so long, but never heard about this. She didn’t even dare to think about it - such a thing was about to happen in a small county town like this.

"Ye Ge, when did you discover this?" Nan Feng asked.

"Last year, do you remember that I told you I was going to be away for a while and you suggested we partner up to sell herbal medicine? I told you that I had other channels."

"Yes, I remember."

"At that time, I heard that there was a medicine in the County that could cure facial sores, so I came here. Someone said the herbs were in Xingshan Town. When I got here and heard about a plague village, I found it very strange, so I sneaked up to check it out, that’s how I discovered this place."

"So you were secretly looking for medicines for me? Where are they then?"

"I couldn’t find it, so I felt embarrassed to tell you when I got back," Ye Ge said.

"How many things have you done that I don’t know about?" Nan Feng laughed.

For some reason, she felt that Ye Ge was still holding back and not telling her everything.

"This isn’t the time for that. It’s not safe to stay here for long. Let’s go back," Ye Ge said.

The two quietly retraced their steps and returned back the way they came.

Back at the inn...

Nan Feng was lying on the bed, deep in thought.

Was it really just a coincidence that Ye Ge discovered Qin Kun’s secret?

"What are you thinking about?" Ye Ge walked over to Nan Feng and asked.

Nan Feng gave a laugh, but didn’t share her suspicions with Ye Ge, merely hugging his neck: "I feel like I’ve gotten myself into a big mess."

"Do you regret going to Xingshan Town with me?"

"No regrets, but..." Nan Feng looked at Ye Ge with a worried expression: "What are you going to do next? Is there any way I can help you?"

"No need," Ye Ge held Nan Feng’s hand: "If there is somewhere you could be of help, I will let you know. I told you everything that I know because I don’t want to keep deceiving you and don’t want you to worry about me all the time. I will tell you all my movements in the future so you have a clear idea and don’t need to guess if I have any secrets!"

"So, you plan to expose the whole thing to the court and let the Emperor deal with Qin Kun?"

"Of course not," Ye Ge held Nan Feng’s hand: "We need to plan everything step by step. Feng, you don’t need to worry, keep on running your business as usual."

"Ye Ge..." Nan Feng called him softly.

"What do you want to say, Feng?"

"Were you really just a bodyguard in the past?"

Ye Ge paused for a moment, but quickly nodded: "Yes, Feng, I was just a bodyguard."

...

After taking a shower and changing clothes, Nan Feng went to look for Xue Ling at the inn.

She initially wanted to go with Ye Ge, but Ye Ge felt it was better for the girls to meet alone, so he left Nan Feng to go by herself.

The little girl at Spikenard Square recognized Nan Feng and told her that Xue Ling wasn’t there as soon as she saw her.

After saying that, the little girl immediately added: "Lady Xue Ling went to choose wedding clothes with Master Yu, they’re just down the street, very close, just turn left and walk a few steps."
