After rebirth, I became the widow of my mortal enemy

Chapter 108: No Place to Vent

Seeing his master say this, Chi Feng naturally wouldn't say anything more.

He must have known that the woman was in a safe place.

Then he bowed and walked out.

After he left, Yan Mobai frowned and looked at the black ink on the document, and did not write for a long time.

Chi Feng came to the yard and saw Chunlan looking inside at the gate of Fuxue Garden.

Knowing why she was there, he walked over.

"Guard Chi, what did the second young master say? Should we send someone to look for him?" Chunlan asked.

"Don't worry, the madam is safe." Chi Feng said in a serious voice.

He has told his parents about the situation, and he believes that his parents know what is going on.

No matter if his master was just being stubborn or was really sure that the other party was not in danger, in short, his master would definitely not let anything happen to that woman.

When Chunlan heard him say this, she thought that her eldest lady's absence might be related to the second young master. Since the second young master was sure that her eldest lady was safe, she had nothing to worry about.

His face relaxed: "That's good."

The night is as cold as water.

Yan Mobai sat under the lamp and finished reviewing the last document.

After closing the document and placing the pen on the inkstone, he raised his hand and pinched his brows, then leaned back on the chair and stared at the candlelight in the octagonal lamp on the table in a daze.

Suddenly his ears moved and he came back to his senses. He heard a slight noise coming from the window of the study.

He lowered his eyes, and his mind flashed back to the night when he was injured and went to Jiangnan, when a woman in a bright red wedding dress sneaked into his room through the window.

He immediately sat up straight, quickly picked up a pen, and opened a document.

While slowly and leisurely making a few notes on the document he had already reviewed, he was keeping an eye on the movements at the window.

Hearing the unbolted window being pushed open at last, he forced himself to calm down and look in the direction of the sound with a blank expression and calmness.

What he saw was a ball of fluffy white fur. The ball meowed at him and jumped down from the windowsill.

Yan Mobai's face turned dark in an instant.

He closed the document with a snap and said in a deep voice: "Blue Shadow!"

Lan Ying, who was waiting outside the study, hurried in upon hearing the sound.

Bow respectfully: "Sir."

Yan Mobai had a dark face and a cold air. He pointed at the little cat that was leisurely walking on the floor in the room, and his voice was like frost in the twelfth lunar month.

"Is this your promise that you will never disturb me?"

Only then did Lan Ying see the little cat. His face changed and he quickly went forward and picked it up.

"I will take it away and lock it up now. I will never let it out again. Please forgive me, sir. Please forgive me, sir!"

Seeing that Yan Mobai didn't say anything else and his face became very gloomy, Lan Ying quickly bowed while holding the little cat, and left the study like the wind.

I was afraid that if I was a step late, the little cat’s life would be in danger.

After court the next day, Yan Mobai did not return home but went directly to the Dali Temple.

He first summoned Song Xiao, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, Zhang Yuan, the chief clerk, and several other officials to discuss all the recent cases, big and small.

Later, he asked Zhang Yuan to show him the files of all the prisoners in the prison.

Zhang Yuan was very curious and asked Song Xiao secretly.

"Is it because we didn't do something right? Why is Lord Yan asking about a small case that has already been closed?"

Song Xiao shook his head: "I don't know, but it's indeed quite abnormal."

"He also asked me to give him all the files of the prisoners. How long will it take to read them? Moreover, he had read all of them during the previous trial."

"We shouldn't have made any mistakes, right? We report to him and seek his opinions on every case before it's concluded."

Zhang Yuan looked very nervous, fearing that he would lose his job.

Song Xiao patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll go find out."

When Song Xiao arrived at Yan Mobai's office, Yan Mobai was sitting at the table looking at the prisoner's files.

Seeing that he had walked right up to Yan Mobai without him noticing, Song Xiao slammed the table and shouted, "Hey!"

Yan Mobai then raised his eyes and looked at him.

Song Xiao laughed: "Are you watching too intently, or are you distracted?"

Yan Mobai glanced at him coldly: "It seems that the Dali Temple needs to be reorganized. From the Shaoqing to the lower officials, they are all too idle."

Song Xiao was used to him talking like this, and although they were from different peaks, they were also good friends, so he didn't care about what he said.

Song Xiao's eyebrows curved, he put his hands on the table, leaned closer, and whispered: "I said that at your age, if you don't get married, something will go wrong sooner or later. See, here comes the problem."

Yan Mobai glared at him.

Song Xiao shook his head and stood up: "So, people, you should listen to advice. You said you are in good health and full of energy, so you should start a family sooner."

"You are obviously sexually unsatisfied and have no place to vent your anger. Otherwise, go to Yihonglou and find a girl..."

Before Song Xiao could finish his words, Yan Mobai raised the file in his hand and threw it at him.

Song Xiao cried out "Ouch" and dodged.

"Have you finished interrogating the prisoners? Have you finished your official duties? You are so idle, how about I find something for you to do?" Yan Mobai asked him.

Song Xiao waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, I'll get busy right away, you should also continue to be busy, continue to be busy."

After saying that, he quickly picked up the files on the ground, walked over and put them on Yan Mobai's desk, then disappeared in a flash.

Yan Mobai picked up the file and continued reading.

Not long after, Lan Ying came in and asked, "Sir, it's almost time for lunch. Should we go back home to eat, or..."

"Let's eat at the Dali Temple." Yan Mobai didn't even raise his head.

Lan Ying was very surprised. When he came out, he met Chi Feng who was returning from a mission.

So he quickly told him the news.

"My Lord said that we will have lunch at the Dali Temple."

Chi Feng was also a little surprised.

Since his master took office as the Minister of Dali Temple, he has never eaten here.

He didn't know the reason. Maybe he felt that there were too many people in Dali Temple and was worried that the food was unsafe. After all, there were many people who wanted to kill him. Or maybe the food in Dali Temple was simply not to his taste.

Today is unprecedented.

It seems that there is a big conflict with that woman.

At noon, the master and his two servants went to the dining hall of the Dali Temple to have lunch.

Seeing Yan Mobai coming, everyone was surprised. They all stood up and bowed to greet him.

"grown ups."

"grown ups."

Then those who wanted to give up their seats gave up their seats, and those who wanted to move moved away.

Yan Mobai frowned and said, "Everyone, eat. Don't worry about me."

But no one could just ignore it, and after he sat down, everyone sat down one after another.

Everyone was originally talking and laughing, but now everyone is concentrating on eating and no one is talking.

There were dozens of people and the only sound was the sound of eating, which perfectly demonstrated the saying "eat without talking".

Chi Feng looked at everyone, then at his master's slightly frowned brows, and suddenly he understood why his master had never eaten here.

There are several women in the Dali Temple kitchen, who are responsible for cooking, serving food and cleaning up.

Someone called out "Madam" and Yan Mobai paused with his chopsticks in hand. The half-chopped lotus root slice fell and happened to fall into Lan Ying's soup bowl beside him.
