On the second day, two unexpected visitors arrived at the Yun family.
At the order of the new emperor, Eunuch Cao came here to pass on oral instructions to the Yun family. Before he left the imperial palace, he had been warned by the emperor to be respectful to Xiao Naihe, so he didn't dare to defy this order. The second he arrived at the Yun family, he immediately inquired about the whereabouts of Xiao Naihe from a guard.
"Xiao Naihe?" The guard looked wired. Everyone knew that Xiao Naihe's statue in the Yun family was as abject as the servants, and lived off his wife, but why did the people from the imperial palace look for that useless man?
Yun Weixue noticed Eunuch Cao standing at the gate and walked over to him. Surprise registered on her face, "Eunuch Cao, why are you here?"
"You are... young lady. " Eunuch Cao couldn’t call Yun Weixue as Murong Fengjian’s student now for Murong Fengjian was accused of treason. "I came here for Xiao Naihe, Mr. Xiao."
Surprised, Yun Weixue knitted her brows. She did not expect that Eunuch Cao wanted to look for her merely nominal husband who she had barely seen.
Yun Hanbo’s face clouded, and he replied, " Xiao Naihe has left here the day before yesterday, and no one knows know where he goes. May I ask why do you look for him? Oh, I see. I heard that he won the first prize in the literal examination at the Family Associating Contest. I guess His Majesty demands his presence, doesn’t he? "
Yun Yonghuai snorted at heart, " Xiao Naihe is just a bookworm, but he finds favor in the new emperor's eyes. Lucky bastard!"
Eunuch Cao had to say with a serious look, "His Majesty just asked me to pass on an oral message to him, but since Mr. Xiao is not here, I I must be leaving now."
"Good bye, Eunuch Cao."
Yun Weixue gazed at Eunuch Cao’s receding figure, her face puzzled. But the Yun family was now a in a period of trouble, and she would soon go to the Mount Rosy Clouds for its martial contest, so she didn’t have much time and energy to take care of Xiao Naihe.
…
"Old coachman, is your coach for rent or not?" A voice reached the coachman’s ears.
He turned to look back, and saw a young man in gray with pinched features standing in thatched shack. A black jade was tied around his waist.
Then the young man yanked open the door of the thatched shack and walked out.
The old coachman patted the horse beside him, and agreed with a simple and honest smile on his face, "Of course. Where are you going, sir?"
"How can I get Mount Rosy Clouds?" The young man asked.
He was Xiao Naihe who had left the Yun family for two days. Now he was looking for a driver to take him to Mount Rosy Clouds.
The martial contest of Mount Rosy Clouds would begin in few days, but he did not know the routes, so he had to find someone to lead the way.
"You are going to take part in the martial contest of Mount Rosy Clouds ten days later, aren’t you?" The coachman asked.
"You know it?" Although Mount Rosy Clouds was a sacred land of martial arts in the Wanqing small world, it was only widely known in the kung fu community.
Xiao Naihe could see that this old coachman was obviously not a martial artist, but he also knew about Mount Rosy Clouds, so there was only one possible explanation—He had been to this place before.
As the young man expected, the old coachman smiled and explained, "I have been a coachman for more than forty years, and have traveled all over the world. Apart from the whole Kingdom of Dubhe, I also covered the Kingdom of Luocha and the Kingdom of Yunshu and so on. I have been Mount Rosy Clouds two times, because I have carried passengers to participant in the martial contest there. "
Xiao Naihe nodded, took out a piece of gold for his bosom and handed it to the old man. Common gold, silver, and copper were used as the means of circulation and payment in the secular world, while the crystal stone was used in the cultivation world.
The coachman was not a cultivator, so Xiao Naihe paid a piece of gold for his travelling expenses to him.
