Chapter 776: Concerns
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Yue was clear about Xue Yan’s change of heart, but she didn’t say anything about this.
To be honest, she didn’t like being passive either.
It was better to take the initiative than to stand idly by.
He could deal with whomever he wanted if he put his mind to it.
Jiang Yue said, “It’s time to write another letter. Wei Zizhan was found much earlier than expected. Your father’s coma and Ji Xiehui’s death might also be brought forward. In other words, the Ji family might discover their plot earlier than we think.”
After a pause, she continued, “However, you’ve already vvritten her a letter before. She should still be investigating you. That rich merchant in the county is now starting to register the letters he sends. It’s obvious that it’s her doing. If we want to send the letter to her through that rich merchant, it’ll definitely be possible. It’s very likely that it’ll be very fast. However, this will make her know that the person who wrote the letter is in Xinyuan County. But if we go somewhere else to get someone to send a message, we won’t be able to leave for that long. Otherwise, our family will be worried.”
Xue Yan was naturally aware of all this. Xue Yan said, “Let’s mail it in Xinyuan County. This matter shouldn’t be delayed for too long, lest something else happens. She’ll think that the person who the letter is in Xinyuan
County, but as long as we’re careful, she won’t be able to find out that it’s me.
Even if she does, she can’t be sure that it’s me.”
Jiang Yue nodded in agreement.
“Leave the matter of sending the letter to me.”
She would secretly let the letter he wrote lie in the big wooden box that contained the letter.
Moreover, the Empress Dowager must have instructed the merchant to hand over any letter to Benefactor Yunzi of the Heavenly Spirit Temple immediately.
As long as these words were written on the envelope, it would be seen by the workers there. It would definitely be immediately sent to the Empress Dowager’s people, and the Empress Dowager’s people would immediately send it to the Empress Dowager.
When the time came, she would just put the letter on the top of the large wooden box that contained the letters to the Imperial Capital. Qin Fu r s shop assistant would definitely notice it.
The moment Xue Yan heard Jiang Yue say to hand it over to her, he knew that Jiang Yue had a way to deliver the letter without exposing the two of them, so he nodded and agreed.
Even though he knew that Jiang Yue would be fine, he still couldn’t help but say, “Still. You have to be careful when the time comes.”
“Don’t worry.” Nothing would happen to her. “By the way, with your father like that, do you think that in your heart…”
Xue Yan smiled and said, “Maybe it’s because I’ve never heard of him doing anything for me before, or because of what I’m like. I didn’t know him before, nor did I look forward to it. I never had any good feelings towards him. I only know him as an Emperor.”
“That’s good.” Jiang Yue nodded, relieved.
Xue Yan felt warmth in his heart. This showed that Jiang Yue was very concerned about him.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was still a while before breakfast, Xue
Yan went back to his room to write a letter, using the handwriting of the Defender General, and also using the paper and ink from different areas.
After he sealed the letter, he gave it to Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue took the letter and put it in her arms. In the evening, she would go to the county and deliver this letter to the shop.
It just so happened that she would be staying in town tonight, and the town was close to the county.
After breakfast, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan sat in the carriage that Erfu was driving and were going to town.
As Erfu drove along the carriage, he said to them, “If the small hand warmer runs out of charcoal, remember to add more. There is more charcoal in the shop, but it’s not very good.
“When the time comes, ask Sifu to buy some good charcoal. You must hold the small hand warmer every day, understand? The weather is cold now, but the sun is quite good today.
“l don’t feel cold even when 1 drive the carriage. If it’s such a day, it’s fine if you don’t hold the hand harmer. Anyway, don’t get sick because of something that silly..”
