The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl Chapter 2010: What a Coincidence

ng Pei frowned, had talked to Lin Yong about the Xuanyuan Sword?

No, he shouldn’t have.

He carefully recalled for a while, shook his head, "Although he is the Deputy Head Escort of the agency and has always been on good terms with , soone I trust, I wouldn’t easily tell anyone about the Xuanyuan Sword, as it’s so important and concerns the ng family."

Moreover, ever since the Xuanyuan Sword was buried underneath the Quansheng Escort Agency, he had almost forgotten about it. To avoid Gong Qiu, they stayed low-key whenever possible, and he wouldn’t do anything that might attract others’ attention.

"I didn’t even tell your mother, Yunzheng only found out when he grew up. Within the entire ng family, only my younger brother and I know about the Xuanyuan Sword, and over the years, it has rarely been ntioned in conversation. The most was when I returned to Chenggu County to visit the ng family, your uncle might ask a couple of questions..."

He suddenly paused at this point.

Seeing him lost in thought, Shu Yu quickly asked, "What’s wrong?"

"I rember, the year before Quansheng Escort Agency fell, I had returned to the ng family. At that ti, since there was a mission needing escort delivery to the nearby prefecture, I decided to visit, and the Deputy Head Escort accompanied to the ng family."

Shu Yu said, "Uncle ng suspects that the ti you t with your uncle, you might have ntioned the Xuanyuan Sword, and the Deputy Head Escort overheard?"

ng Pei pondered montarily, sighed in disappointnt, "It’s been so long, I can’t rember if I spoke with my younger brother about the Xuanyuan Sword on that visit. But if the Deputy Head Escort really knows about the sword, then that would be the most likely ti."

Shu Yu remained silent, then looked up after a long pause, "Regardless of whether he was the one instructing San Laizi, it’s essential to first ascertain if he’s still alive. If he only staged his death, and the tiline coincidentally aligns, then most likely..."

She didn’t finish, but everyone present understood.

ng Pei and Ying Dong’s expressions were somber, even after so many years, their feelings back then were genuine.

If it truly was the Deputy Head Escort plotting against them, it’s incredibly sorrowful.

"I will go out shortly to ask around for the Deputy Head Escort’s forr address in the prefecture, and early tomorrow morning, I will seek soone to gather information."

Ying Dong hurriedly said, "Uncle ng, I’ll go too, I can inquire at the docks."

As he spoke towards the end, he still held onto a shred of hope, "Maybe, maybe I really mistook him, and that wasn’t the Deputy Head Escort."

Though he said this, inwardly he beca increasingly sure he hadn’t mistaken the identity.

ng Pei patted his shoulder, "Tomorrow you need to go up the mountain to see your parents, so you shouldn’t go."

"It’s fine, we’ll leave early, and should return not too late; Uncle ng, just wait for a little while."

ng Pei thought for a mont, "All right then."

After discussing, he looked up at Shu Yu, "You should go back to your room and rest; I will be out for a while and might not return for a while. You don’t need to wait for , if anything cos up, you can ask Uncle Yan, he will make appropriate arrangents."

"Okay."

ng Pei turned and left hastily, yet his steps were unsteady, and his deanor appeared quite heavy.

Shu Yu sighed quietly, then called the three young n who had been wandering around the Quansheng Escort Agency back to their rooms.

Early the next morning, Ying Dong and his sister went to pay respects to their parents.

Afterward, Ying Xi returned, while Ying Dong accompanied ng Pei to the prefecture in Huajiang Prefecture to gather information.

Shu Yu went out for a walk around and quickly returned.

By evening, ng Pei and Ying Dong returned to the escort agency, looking fatigued; judging by their expressions, the information they gathered wasn’t promising.
